Effect of concentrations of wheat flour and glucose on the sponge fermentation of soda cracker by the mixed lactic acid bacteria of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum was investigated. When glucose was added to the wheat flour solution, pH was higher and TTA (total titrable acid) was lower as compared with the medium without glucose. This results suggested that glucose in the solution stimulate cell growth but inhibit the production of organic acids. With increasing of wheat flour concentration, pH decreased and TTA increased during the sponge fermentation of soda cracker.

The twenty strains of Lactobacillus genus were tested for the optimal sponge fermentation of soda cracker. The six strains such as L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum, L. leichmanii, L. plantarum and L. sanfrancisco were selected because these strains did not smell off-flavor and showed the high value of TTA (total titrable acidity) after the fermentation. The selected strains consisted of the five strains of L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum, L. leichmanii and L. plantarum that mainly inhabited soda clacker and L. sanfrancisco that existed in San Francisco bread. The lactic acid bacteria were inoculated to the medium containing 10% wheat flour and then pH, TTA, acetic acid and lactic acid were measured during the sponge fermentation. The four strains of L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were used for the mixed lactic acid bacteria of sponge fermentation because the TTAs of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were higher than those of other lactic acid bacteria and L. delbrueckii rapidly produced organic acids and a large amount of acetic acid. Among the combination of L. brevis, L. fermentum, L. delbrueckii and L. plantarum, the mixed lactic acid bacteria of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum showed the highest TTA, the lowest pH and the largest amount of acetic acid. Therefore, the mixed lactic acid bacteria of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were used for optimal sponge fermentation of soda cracker.

$Cu(In_{1-x}Ga_x)Se_2$(CIGS) 박막 태양전지는 Chalcopyrite 계 박막 태양전지로 Cu, In, Ga, Se 각 원소의 조성을 적절히 조절하여 박막을 성장시킨다. 성장시킨 CIGS 박막은 광흡수계수가 $10^5cm^{-1}$로 다른 물질보다 뛰어나고 직접 천이형 반도체로서 얇은 두께로도 고효율의 박막 제작이 가능하다. CIGS 태양전지를 제조하는 방법은 3-stage 동시 증착법, 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법, 전기 증착법 등이 있다. 그 중에 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법은 다른 제조 방법에 비해 대면적 생산에 유리한 장점이 있다. 하지만 아직 상대적으로 3-stage 동시 증착법에 비해 낮은 에너지 변환 효율이 보고된다. 본 실험에서는 기존의 금속 전구체의 셀렌화 공정법과는 달리 전구체 증착과 셀렌화 공정을 동시에 하고, Se cracker를 통하여 Se 원료를 주입하는 방식인 반응성 스퍼터링 공정에서 reservoir zone의 온도 변화에 따른 특성을 분석하였다. Se cracker의 reservoir zone 온도가 증가할수록 Cu/(In+Ga) 비가 증가한다. CIGS 박막 태양전지의 구조는 Al/Ni/ITO/i-ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/Soda lime glass이다. CIGS 박막의 조성비가 Cu/(In+Ga)=0.89, Ga/(In+Ga)=0.17인 박막 태양전지에서 개방전압 0.34 V, 단락전류밀도 $32.61mA/cm^2$, 충실도 56.2% 그리고 변환 효율 6.19%를 얻었다. 본 연구는 2011년도 지식경제부의 재원으로 한국에너지 기술평가원(KTEP)의 지원을 받아 수행한 연구 과제입니다(No.20093020010030).

$CuIn_{1-x}Ga_xSe_2$ (CIGS) thin films are grown on Mo/soda lime glass using a reactive sputtering process in which a Se cracker is used to deliver reactive Se molecules. The Cu and $(In_{0.7}Ga_{0.3})_2Se_3$ targets are simultaneously sputtered under the delivery of reactive Se. The effects of Se flux on film composition are investigated. The Cu/(In+Ga) composition ratio increases as the Se flux increases at a plasma power of less than 30 W for the Cu target. The (112) crystal orientation becomes dominant, and crystal grain size is larger with Se flux. The power conversion efficiency of a solar cell fabricated using an 800-nm CIGS film is 8.5%.

In this study, $Cu(In_{1-x},Ga_x)Se_2$ (CIGS) thin films were prepared on the Mo coated soda-lime glass by the DC magnetron sputtering and a subsequent selenization process. For the selenization process, selenization rapid thermal process(RTP) with cracker cell, which was helpful to smaller an atomic of Se, was adopted. To make CIGS layer, they were then annealed with the cracked Se. Based on this selenization method, we made several CIGS thin film and investigated the effects of In deposition time, and selenization time. Through x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM), it is found that the Mo/In/CuGa structure and the high sputtering power shows the dominant chalcopyrite structure and have a uniform distribution of the grain size. The CIGS films with the In deposition time of 5 min has the best structure due to the smooth surface. And CIGS films with the selenization time of 50 min show good crystalline growth without any voids.

The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between demographic characteristics and atopic dermatitis, along with adolescents' body mass index. Also, this study explored the association between dietary intakes (fruits, soda, caffeinated beverages, instant food, cracker, vegetables, and milk) of adolescents and atopic dermatitis. Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey for 2014 was used for data analysis, in which a total of 3,532,149 middle and high school students participated. Data were analyzed by descriptive analysis and logistic regression based on the complex sample design using SPSS ver.20.0 statistics. The results showed that males had a higher prevalence rate of atopic dermatitis than females. The significant association between body mass index and atopic dermatitis was found (F=46.625, P<0.001). Students who have higher levels of body mass index showed a higher prevalence rate of atopic dermatitis. Finally, the findings showed that the intake of vegetable and milk had associations with atopic dermatitis (F=6.795, P<0.001). Greater vegetable intake was associated with less atopic dermatitis whereas greater milk intake was associated with more atopic dermatitis prevalence. Based on the above results, we found that demographic characteristics, body mass index, and some dietary food intakes of adolescents had influences on prevalence rate of atopic dermatitis.
