  • InGaAsP epitaxial layers lattice matched to InP were grown at 600 and $620^{\circ}C$ by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Solid phase composition of group III was controlled by the diffusion flux gas phase to the reachion surface. For the case of group V, the difference of As and P vapor pressure and pyrolysis efficiency of $PH_3$and $AsH_3$ mainly determined their in corporation into solid. An abnormal behavior of peak energy shift was observed below 75K in temperature variant photoluminescence study. This abnormal behavior was explained by the difference in order of ordering which makes spatial variation of energy gap in InGaAsP layer and this explanation was supported by the analyses of transmission electron microscopy and transmission spectroscopy.

  • To investigate seasonal variation of fisheries resources composition and their correlationships with environmental factors in the coastal ecosystem of the middle Yellow Sea of Korea, shrimp beam trawl were carried out for the fisheries survey. Fisheries resources of 81 species, 57 families, and 6 taxa totally were collected by shrimp beam trawl in the middle coastal ecosystem of Yellow Sea of Korea. Species were included 6 species in Bivalvia, 6 in Cephalopoda, 22 in Crustacea, 2 in Echinodermata, 5 in Gastropoda, and 40 in Pisces. Diversity indices (Shannon index, H') showed seasonal variation with low value of 2.14 in winter, and high value of 2.67 in spring. Main dominant species were Oratosquilla oratoria, Octopus ocellatus, Acanthogobius lactipes, Cynoglossus joyneri, Rapana venosa venosa, Loligo beka, Chaeturichthys stigmatias, Raja kenojei, Microstomus achne and Paralichthys olivaceus, that were occupied over 58% of total individuals, and 55% of wet weight. Fisheries organism made four coordinative seasonal groups by the principal component analysis (PCA), showing stronger seasonal variation than spatial variation. PC from PCA showed statistically significant cross-correlationships with seawater temperature, $NH_4$-N, TP and chlorophyll a (P < 0.05).

  • During the electrokinetic remediation, direct current applied to a soil-water-electrolyte system derives the variations of fluid transport phenomena in soil-water system and soil-water interface characteristics. Therefore, these variations affect the electrokinetic reaction. In this study, lab-scale electrokinetic remediation tests were performed to characterize the electrical and chemical parameters variation in soil. During the test, voltage gradient, electrical current, zeta potential and pH variations were measured. On the basis of experimental results, computer modeling techniques predicting the variations of these parameters are suggested.

  • This study was carried out to provide the basic informations for the water quality management in Boryung fresh water reservoir watershed. Four agricultural reservoirs were selected and the water qualify of the reservoirs were investigated from November 1998 to December 2000, periodically. Including storage rate, temporal variation of water quality constituents such as water temperature, pH, EC, total nitrogen, total phosphorus were analysed. The result showed that pH ranged $6.7{\sim}10.4$, EC $56.1{\sim}1079{\mu}S/cm$, COD $0.75{\sim}8.0mg/L$, respectively. And, total-N concentration affected by the livestock wastes and agricultural activity ranged from 0.21 to 4.66mg/L and which was almost over the agricultural water quality standard(1.0mg/L). Total-P ranged from 0.001 to 0.080mg/L as lower than the agricultural water quality standard(0.1mg/L).

  • Electrical gate and drain characteristics of double heterostructure InAlAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs have been investigated under sub-bandgap photonic excitation ($hv). Drain $(V_{DS})-,{\;}gate($V_{DS})-$, and optical power($P_{opt}$)-dependent variation of the abnormal gate leakage current and associated physical mechanisms in the PHEMTs have been characterized. Peak gate voltage ($V_{GS,P}$) and the onset voltage for the impact ionization ($V_{GS.II}$) have been extracted and empirical model for their dependence on the $V_{DS}$ and $P_{opt} have been proposed. Anomalous gate and drain current, both under dark and under sub-bandgap photonic excitation, have been modeled as a parallel connection of high performance PHEMT with a poor satellite FET as a parasitic channel. Sub-bandgap photonic characterization, as a function of the optical power with $h\nu=0.799eV$, has been comparatively combined with those under dark condition for characterizing the bell-shaped negative humps in the gate current and subthreshold drain leakage under a large drain bias.

  • We investigated the effects of annealing on the electrical and thermal properties of ZTO/4H-SiC heterojunction diodes. A ZTO thin film layer was grown on p-type 4H-SiC substrate by using solution process. The ZTO/SiC heterojunction structures annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ show that $I_{on}/I_{off}$ increases from ${\sim}5.13{\times}10^7$ to ${\sim}1.11{\times}10^9$ owing to the increased electron concentration of ZTO layer as confirmed by capacitance-voltage characteristics. In addition, the electrical characterization of ZTO/SiC heterojunction has been carried out in the temperature range of 300~500 K. When the measurement temperature increased from 300 K to 500 K, the reverse current variation of annealed device is higher than as-grown device, which is related to barrier height in the ZTO/SiC interface. It is shown that annealing process is possible to control the electrical characteristics of ZTO/SiC heterojunction diode.

  • The properties of piezoelectric and dielectric for 0.05Pb$(Mn_{0.4}W_{0.2}Nb_{0.4})O_3$ - $0.95PbZr_{x}Ti_{1-x}O_{3}$ compositions have been investigated. In the composition of 0.05Pb$(Mn_{0.4}W_{0.2}Nb_{0.4})O_3$-$0.95PbZr_{0.51}Ti_{0.49}O_{3}$, the values of $k_p$ and ${\varepsilon_{33}}^T/{\varepsilon}_0$ are maximized, but $Q_m$ was minimized ($k_p$=56.5[%], $Q_m$=1130, $d_{33}$=258[pC/N], ${\varepsilon_{33}}^T/{\varepsilon}_0$=1170). The grain size was suppressed and the uniformity of gram was improved at the $1100[^{\circ}C]$. Dielectric constant increase at the Ti rich, but decrease at the Zr rich after poling. Because the dielectric constant after poling is determined by compromising effects between dipole switching and electostriction inducing stress(dielectric constant increasing factor) and dipole rotation to the poling direction (dielectric constant decreasing factor).

  • In this study, we demonstrate that ZnO deposited onto $SiO_2$ substrates by magnetron sputtering produces p-type ZnO at higher $O_2$ pressure and n-type ZnO at lower $O_2$ pressure. We also report the effect of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) on the stability of undoped ZnO thin films. The films were immersed in 30% $H_2O_2$ for 1 min at $30^{\circ}C$ and annealed in $O_2$at $450^{\circ}C$. The carrier concentration, mobility. and conductivity were measured by a Hall effect measurement system. The Hall measurement results for ZnO films untreated with $H_2O_2$ but annealed in $O_2$ indicate that oxygen fraction greater than ~0.5 produces undoped p-type ZnO films, whereas oxygen fraction less than ~0.5 produces undoped n-type ZnO films. This is attributed to the fact that the oxygen vacancies ($V_o$) decrease and the oxygen interstitials ($O_i$) or zinc vacancies ($V_{Zn}$) increase with increasing oxygen atoms incorporated into ZnO films during deposition and $O_2$ post-annealing.

  • Vegetational changes along elevational and topographical gradients were studied in Mt. Jumbong which is located at the core area of the Mt. Sorak Biosphere Reserve in Kangwon-do Province in central Korea. Two 500 m north-south transects crossing two valleys and a small ridge were laid out, and fifty-one 10 m$\times$10 m permanent quadrats were systematically set up. All trees bigger than 2.5 cm DBH were marked with numbered aluminum tags, and their DBH measured and the species identified. Coverage of plant species in the herb layer were determined in two 2 m $\times$ 2 m subquadrats in each of the permanent quadrats. Thirty-two species of woody plants occurred in the tree layer in the permanent quadrats studied. Quercus mongolica was the dominant species across the study site, and Acer pseudosieboldianum and Carpinus cordata were also important. Quercus mongolica occurred on the ridges and south-facing slopes, and Acer pseudosieboldianum occurred extensively except for valleys. In contrast, Fraxinus mandshurica, Acer mono, Acer triflorum, and Ulmus laciniata were common in valleys. At the herbaceous layer, 112 species were identified. Dominant species were Ainsliaea acerifolia and Sasa borealis on the ridges, Meehania urticifolia on north-facing slopes, and Deutzia glabrata on valleys. Soil environmental factors were compared among the quadrats. pH was lower in the quadrats located on ridges and south-facing slopes, and organic matter was lowest on south-facing slopes. Quadrats located on valleys were generally higher in pH, organic matter, N, P, K, Ca and Mg. DCA ordinations for tree layer and herb layer were carried out in order to identify the dominant environmental factors affecting the distribution of plant species along the environmental gradients. Correlation analysis between ordination axis scores and environmental factors showed that axis one was negatively correlated with elevation and positively correlated with soil organic matter, pH, Ca, Mg, and P, but that axis two was positively correlated with elevation. These results indicate that vegetation responds very sensitively to elevational and topographical gradients although the study area is relatively small with about 100 m in elevational variation.

  • This study evaluated treatability of soluble Mn(II) using multifunctional sand media simultaneously coated with iron and manganese. In the preparation of IMCS(Iron and Manganese Coated Sand), 0.05 M Mn(II) solution and Fe(III) solution was mixed with sand at pH 7. The mineral type of IMCS was identified as the mixture of ${\gamma}-MnO_2$, goethite and magnetite($F_{e3}O_4$). The contents of Mn and Fe coated onto sand were 826 and 1676 mg/kg, respectively. The $pH_{pzc}$ of IMCS was measured as 6.40. The removal of soluble Mn(II) using IMCS and oxidants such as NaOCl and $KMnO_4$ was investigated with variation of the solution pH, reaction time and Mn(II) concentration in a batch test. The removal of Mn(II) on IMCS was 34% at pH 7.4 and the removals of Mn(II) on IMCS in the presence of NaOCl(13.6 mg/L) at pH 7 and $KMnO_4$(4.8 mg/L) at pH 7.6 were 96% and 89%, respectively. The removal of Mn(II) using IMCS and oxidants followed a typical cationic type, showing a gradual increase of removal as the solution pH increased. The removal of Mn(II) was rapid in the first 6 hrs and then a constant removal was observed. The maximum removed amount of Mn(II) on IMCS-alone and IMCS in the presence of oxidants such as NaOCl(13.6 mg/L) and $KMnO_4$(4.8mg/L) were 833.3, 1428.6 and 1666.7 mg/kg, respectively. Mn(II) removal onto the IMCS in the presence of oxidants was well described by second-order reaction and Langmuir isotherm expression.
