For the comparison of surface fine structures in the proliferative forms of two major protoroan parasites, Toxoplasma gondii and Sarcocystis species in mammalian hosts, isolated from the artificially infected mice and from the naturally infected cattle, respectively, an SEM(Hitachi S-570) was applied to the fixed, dried and coated with gold ion on the microslide glasses. The tachyzoites of T gondii from the peritoneal cavity of the mouse showed the crescent-like feature and measured as $5.57{\mu}m$ in length and $2.33{\mu}m$ in width, while the bradyzoites of Sarcocystis species from the heart muscle of slaughtered cattle was banana-shaped and measured as $14.18{\mu}m$ in length and $2.85{\mu}m$ in width. On the surface of Sarcocystis species bradyzoite, a distinct elliptical micropore was identified in the high magnification observation of 60,000X, and it measured as $0.35{\mu}m$ in length and $0.18{\mu}m$ in width.

GaN는 직접천이형 wide band gap(3.4eV) 반도체로서 청색/자외선 발광소자 및 고출력 전자장비등에의 응용성 때문에 폭넓게 연구되고 있다. 이러한 넓은 분야의 응용을 위해서는 열 적으로 안정된 Ohmic contact을 반드시 실현되어야 한다. n-type GaN의 경우에는 GaN계면에서의 N vacancy가 n-type carrier로 작용하기 때문에 Ti, Al, 같은 금속을 접합하여 nitride를 형성함에 의해서 낮은 접촉저항을 갖는 Ohmic contact을 하기가 쉽다. 그러나 p-type의 경우에는 일 함수가 크고 n-type와 다르게 nitride가 형성되지 않는 금속이 Ohmic contact을 할 가능성이 많다. 시료는 HF(HF:H2O=1:1)에서 10분간 초음파 세척을 한 후 깨끗한 물에 충분히 헹구었다. 그런 후에 고순도 Ar 가스로 건조시켰다. Pd와 Ni은 열적 증착법(thermal evaporation)을 사용하여 p-GaN에 상온에서 증착하였다. 현 연구에서는 열처리에 의한 Pd의 clustering을 줄이기 위해서 wetting이 좋은 Ni을 Pd 증착 전과 후에 삽입하였으며, monchromatic XPS(x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) 와 SAM(scanning Auger microscopy)을 사용하여 열처리 전과 40$0^{\circ}C$, 52$0^{\circ}C$ 그리고 695$0^{\circ}C$에서 3분간 열처리 후의 온도에 따른 morphology 변화, 계면반응(interfacial reaction) 및 벤드 휨(band bending)을 비교 연구하였다. Nls core level peak를 사용한 band bending에서 Schottky barrier height는 Pd/Ni bi-layer 접합시 2.1eV를, Ni/Pd bi-layer의 경우에 2.01eV를 얻었으며, 이는 Pd와 Ni의 이상적인 Schottky barrier height 값 2.38eV, 2.35eV와 비교해 볼 때 매우 유사한 값임을 알 수 있다. 시료를 후열처리함에 의해 52$0^{\circ}C$까지는 barrier height는 큰 변화가 없으나, $650^{\circ}C$에서 3분 열처리 후에 0.36eV, 0.28eV 만큼 band가 더 ？을 알 수 있었다. Pd/Ni 및 Ni/Pd 접합시 $650^{\circ}C$까지 후 열 처리 과정에서 계면에서 matallic Ga은 온도에 비례하여 많은 양이 형성되어 표면으로 편석(segregation)되어지나, In-situ SAM을 이용한 depth profile을 통해서 Ni/Pd, Pd/Ni는 증착시 uniform하게 성장함을 알 수 있었으며, 후열처리 함에 의해서 점차적으로 morphology 의 변화가 일어나기 시작함을 볼 수 있었다. 이는 $650^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 한후의 ex-situ AFM을 통해서 재확인 할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로부터 GaN에 Pd를 접합 시 심한 clustering이 형성되어 Ohoic contact에 문제가 있으나 Pd/Ni 혹은 Ni/Pd bi-layer를 사용함에 의해서 clustering의 크기를 줄일 수 있었다. Clustering의 크기는 Ni/Pd bi-layer의 경우가 작았으며, $650^{\circ}C$ 열처리 후에 barrier height는 Pd/Ni bi-layer의 경우에도 Ni의 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다.

We evaluated the effect of adding mechanically deboned chicken meat (MDCM) (0, 10, 20, 30 or 50%) on quality characteristics of chicken sausage. Adding MDCM decreased the protein content of chicken sausage, but ash content increased significantly. Adding MDCM had no effect on pH and water holding capacity of sausage. Adding MDCM increased cooking loss, but did not affect the shear force value of the sausage. Adding MDCM decreased the L- (lightness) and b- (yellowness) values but increased the a- (redness) value of sausage. Adding MDCM decreased the hardness and cohesiveness values, but did not affect the springiness value of chicken sausage. Adding MDCM decreased the juiciness and hardness but increased the flavor and chewiness scores of chicken sausage. Regardless of the MDCM addition level, all chicken sausage contained low residual nitrite ion (<4 ppm). During the 10 d of storage at $4^{\circ}C$, adding MDCM did not affect total microbial count or TBA values of chicken sausage, but the VBN value of the sausage increased slightly. However, all storage characteristic values in the sausage were within the safety range. Adding MDCM (0, 10 or 20%) to chicken sausage resulted in a finely structured protein matrix under scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which indicated a good meat emulsion, but adding MDCM at more than 20% resulted in a very coarse protein matrix structure.

We fabricates the $TiO_2$ thin film from anatase phase $TiO_2$ powder having good photocatalytic property using aerosol deposition method at room temperature. Aerosol deposition method, which sprays an aerosol powder with ultrasonic velocity and deposits a thin film on substrate at low temperature, has the advantages of low thermal stress and low cost. To fabricate the $TiO_2$ thin film, the aerosol bath pressure and chamber pressure were 500 torr and 0.4 torr, respectively. The difference of aerosol bath pressure and chamber pressure accelerated the $TiO_2$ nano powder to ultrasonic velocity through the nozzle of $0.4 mm{\times}10 mm$ and $TiO_2$ thin film was finally formed. SS mesh with diameter of 50 mm was used as a substrate to apply the $TiO_2$ thin film to water quality purification. The raw powder was dehydrated for the good dispersion of $TiO_2$ powder. To suppress the formation of second particle, the powder was dispersed for 90 min in alcohol bath by ultrasonic treatment and desiccated. The grain size of $1 {\mu}m$ was observed in $TiO_2$ thin film deposited on SUS mesh by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The anatase phase of $TiO_2$ thin film was also observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the anatase phase of raw powder was nicely maintained after aerosol deposition. The results are applicable to water treatment filter having photocatalytic reaction.

$SrAl_2O_4$ : $Eu^{2+}$,$Dy^{3+}$ phosphorescent phosphors were synthesized by skull melting method. The molar ratio of oxides in the phosphors synthesized by the skull melting technique was $SrCO_3$ : $Al(OH)_3$ : $Eu_2O_3$ : $Dy_2O_3$= 1 : 2 : 0.015 : 0.02. Crystal structure and surface morphology were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Optical properties of the synthesized $SrAl_2O_4$ : $Eu^{2+}$,$Dy^{3+}$ were measured by photoluminescence (PL) spectrometer for in-depth study on the excitation, emission and afterglow properties. From the PL measurements, it was found that excitation occurred in the wavelength range from 300 to 420 nm with peak position at 360 nm. The emission spectrum showed a broad curve in the wavelength from 450 to 600 nm with peak position at 530 nm. $SrAl_2O_4$ : $Eu^{2+}$,$Dy^{3+}$ phosphors exhibited afterglow properties with emission that lasted for a long period.

Thermodynamic modeling of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite system has been adopted as a rational approach to establish routes to better synthesis conditions for pure phase $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite. Quantitative analysis of the different reaction equilibria involved in the precipitation of $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ from aqueous solutions has been used to determine the optimum synthesis conditions. The spinel ferrites, such as magnetite and substitutes for magnetite, with the general formula $MFe_2O_4$, where M= $Fe^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, and $Ni^{2+}$ are prepared by coprecipitation of $Fe^{3+}$ and $M^{2+}$ ions with a stoichiometry of $M^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$= 0.5. The average particle size of the as synthesized $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$, measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), is 14.2 nm, with a standard deviation of 3.5 nm the size when calculated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) is 16 nm. When $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite is annealed at elevated temperature, larger grains are formed by the necking and mass transport between the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite nanoparticles. Thus, the grain sizes of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ gradually increase as heat treatment temperature increases. Based on the results of Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) analysis, it is found that the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the as synthesized ferrite nanoparticles finally decompose to $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ crystal with heat treatment. The results of XRD and TEM confirmed the nanoscale dimensions and spinel structure of the samples.

Concentration of welding fumes and their components is known to be hazardous to welder and adjacent worker. To determine the generation rates of metals in fumes, $CO_2$ flux cored arc welding on stainless steel was performed in well designed fume collection chamber. Variables were different products of flux cored wire(2 domestic products and 4 foreign products) and input energy(low-, optimal- , high input energy). Mass of welding fumes was determined by gravimetric method(NIOSH 0500 method), and 17 metals were analysed by inductively coupled plasm-atomic emission spectroscopy(NIOSH 7300 method). Flux cored wire tube and flux were analysed by scanning electron microscopy to determine their metal composition. 17 metals were classified by their generation rates. Generation rates of iron, manganese, potassium and sodium were all above 50mg/min at optimal input energy level. Generation rates of chromium and amorphous silica were 25~50mg/min. At 1~25mg/min level, nickel, titanium, molybdenum, and aluminum were included. Copper, zinc, calcium, lead, magnesium, lithium, and cobalt were generated below 1 mg/min. Generation rates of metal components in fumes were influenced by input energy, types of flux cored wire. Flux cored wire was consisted of outer shell tube and inner flux. Iron, chromium, and nickel were the major components of outer tube. Flux contained iron, chromium, nickel, potassium, sodium, silica, and manganese. The use of flux cored wire can increase the hazards by increasing the amounts of fumes formed relative to that of solid wire. The reason might be the direct transfer of elements from the flux, since the flux is fine power. Ratio of metals to the fume of flux cored wire was lower than that of solid wire because non-metal components of flux were transferred. Total metal content of fumes in flux cored arc welding was 47.4(24.3~57.2) percent that is much lower than that of solid wire, 75.9 percent. We found that generation rates of iron, manganese, chromium and nickel, all well known to cause work related disease to welder, increased more rapidly with increasing input energy than those of fumes. To reduce worker exposure to fumes and hazardous component at source, further research is needed to develop new welding filler materials that decrease both the amount of fumes and hazardous components.

The formation of $Co_nTiO_{n+2}$ compounds, i.e., $CoTiO_3$ and $CO_2TiO_4$, in a 5wt% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst after calcination at different temperatures has been characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements to verify our earlier model associated with $CO_3O_4$ nanoparticles present in the catalyst, and laboratory-synthesized $Co_nTiO_{n+2}$ chemicals have been employed to directly measure their activity profiles for CO oxidation at $100^{\circ}C$. SEM measurements with the synthetic $CoTiO_3$ and $CO_2TiO_4$ gave the respective tetragonal and rhombohedral morphology structures, in good agreement with the earlier XRD results. Weak Raman peaks at 239, 267 and 336 $cm^{-1}$ appeared on 5wt% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ after calcination at $570^{\circ}C$ but not on the catalyst calcined at $450^{\circ}C$, and these peaks were observed for the $Co_nTiO_{n+2}$ compounds, particularly $CoTiO_3$. All samples of the two cobalt titanate possessed O ls XPS spectra comprised of strong peaks at $530.0{\pm}0.1$ eV with a shoulder at a 532.2-eV binding energy. The O ls structure at binding energies near 530.0 eV was shown for a sample of 5 wt% $CoO_x/TiO_2$, irrespective to calcination temperature. The noticeable difference between the catalyst calcined at 450 and $570^{\circ}C$ is the 532.2 eV shoulder which was indicative of the formation of the $Co_nTiO_{n+2}$ compounds in the catalyst. No long-life activity maintenance of the synthetic $Co_nTiO_{n+2}$ compounds for CO oxidation at $100^{\circ}C$ was a good vehicle to strongly sup port the reason why the supported $CoO_x$ catalyst after calcination at $570^{\circ}C$ had been practically inactive for the oxidation reaction in our previous study; consequently, the earlier proposed model for the $CO_3O_4$ nanoparticles existing with the catalyst following calcination at different temperatures is very consistent with the characterization results and activity measurements with the cobalt titanates.

최근 범세계적인 그린에너지 정책에 관련해 화석연료를 대체할 수 있는 수소, 풍력, 태양광 등의 대체 에너지에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 이러한 여러 대체에너지 중에서도 태양광을 전기에너지로 변환하는 태양전지에 관한 연구가 집중되고 있다. 태양전지는 구조적으로 단순하고 제조 공정도 비교적 간단하지만, 보다 널리 보급되기 위해서는 경제성 향상이라는 문제점을 해결해야 한다. 이를 위해서는 기존의 실리콘 태양전지를 대체할 수 있는 신물질에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 그 중에서도 반도체 기술을 이용한 박막형 태양전지는 기존의 실리콘 태양 전지가 가지고 있는 고비용이라는 문제점을 극복할 수 있을 것으로 기대를 모으고 있다. 박막형 태양전지의 박막 재료로는 CIGS, CdTe 등이 연구되어지고 있지만, 아직까지는 기존의 실리콘 태양전지에 비해 에너지변환효율이 낮은 이유로 인해 실용화가 많이 이루어지지 못하고 있는 것이 사실이다. 이러한 박막형 태양전지의 재료들 중에서도 CdTe는 이종접합 박막형 태양전지에 흡광층으로 사용되는 것으로 상온에서 1.45eV 정도의 밴드갭(band gap) 에너지를 갖는 II-VI족 화합물반도체로써 태양광 스펙트럼과 잘 맞는 이상적인 밴드랩 에너지와 높은 광흡수도 때문에 박막형 태양전지로 가장 주목을 받고 있다. CdTe 박막의 제조 방법으로는 진공증착법(vacuum evaporation), 전착법(electrodeposition), 스퍼터링법(sputtering) 등이 있지만 본 연구에서는 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 박막을 증착하였다. 이상과 같이 증착된 CdTe 박막을 화학적기계적연마(CMP, chemical mechanical polishing) 공정을 적용시킴으로써, 태양전지의 에너지변환효율에 직접적인 영향을 끼칠 수 있는 CdTe 박막의 물리적, 전기적 특성들의 변화를 연구하기 위한 선행 연구를 진행하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 CdTe 박막의 화학적 기계적 연마 특성을 분석하여 정규화를 통한 모델링을 수행하였다. 또한 화학적기계적연마 공정 전과 후의 표면 특성을 관찰하기 위해 SEM(scanning electron microscopy)과 AFM(atomic forced microscope)를 이용하였으며, 구조적 특성 관찰을 XRD(X-ray diffraction)를 사용하여 실험을 수행하였다.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the surface characteristics and the fittness of the resilienct denture lines. Firstly, 50 samples ($2.0{\times}4.0{\times}0.3cm$) of 4 resilient lining materials (Molloplast B, Coe Super Soft, Mollosil, Coe Soft) and one conventional acrylic resin (K-33) were processed according to manufacture's direction and examined the surface characteristics by use of surface profilometer and scanning electron microscopy. Secondly, 50 identical maxillary casts were made and 50 denture bases were pro cessed of 4 resilient liners and one conventional acrylic resin and they were stored in the room temperature water bath of 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after processing. The original casts were cut away 1 cm from the posterior border, the dentures were seated, and the existing space was measured at seven regions according to the storage time by use of the modified thickness guage. The results were as follows. 1. Surface roughness (Rz) were $4.00{\pm}1.60{\mu}m$ in Mollosil, $4.47{\pm}2.21{\mu}m$ in Molloplast B, $7.46{\pm}1.70{\mu}m$ in Coe Super Soft, $12.70{\pm}2.39{\mu}m$ in Coe Soft and $13.03{\pm}2.74{\mu}m$ in K-33. 2. The generation of porosity was far more active in cold-cured resilient liners (Coe Soft and Mollosil) than in heat cured resilient liners (Molloplast B, and Coe Super Soft) and conventional heat cured resin (K-33). 3. Denture bases showed the greatest discrepancy at the central portion of the posterior palatal border and the intimate contact in the buccal flange regardless of denture base materials. 4. When the denture bases were stored in the water for 1 day and 6 weeks after processing, the sum of average discrepancies in the seven regions of the denture base was the greatest in K-33 followed by Molloplast B, Mollosil, Coe Soft and Coe Super Soft but followed by Coe Soft, Molloplast B, Mollosil, Coe Super Soft in that order respectively. 5. There was not a significant difference (p>0.05) in Coe Super Soft, K-33 but there was a significant difference (P<0.01) in Molloplast B, Mollosil, Coe Soft at the amount of dimensional changes according to the storage time.
