  • In the present paper we report the results of a study into Friction Stir Welds (FSWs) made in 13 mm-thick 12%-Cr steel plates. Based on residual strains obtained by diffraction techniques, eigenstrain analysis was performed using the Eigenstrain Reconstruction Method (ERM), which is a novel methodology for the reconstruction of full-field residual strain and stress distributions within engineering components. Significant eigenstrain distributions were found at around Thermo-Mechanically Affected Zone (TMAZ) where the most severe plastic deformation was occurred. Microstructure analysis was used to elucidate this phenomenon showing that the grain structure in TMAZ was bent and not successfully recrystallised, resulting in severe deformation behaviour. The reconstructed residual strain distributions by the ERM agree well with the experimental results. It was found that the approach based on theory of eigenstrain is a powerful basis for reconstructing the full-field residual strain/stress distributions in engineering components and structures.

  • Crystal structure of $(Ba-{1-x}La_x)[Mg_\frac{1+x}{3}}Nb_\frac{{2-x}{3}}]O_3$ (BLMN) ceramics with 0\leq1x \geq was investigated using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and high reso(B $a_{l-x}$L $a_{x}$)[M $g_{(1+x)}$3/N $b_{(2-x)/3}$$O_3$lution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). When the La content, x, is above 0.1, the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure found in Ba($Mg_\frac{1}{3}Nb_\frac{2}{3}})O_3$(BMN) was transformed into 1:1 ordered cubic structure. The 1:1 ordered cubic structure was maintained up to x=0.7. When x exceeded 0.7, however, BLMN was transformed into 1:1 ordered structure which has cation displacement and in-phase and anti-phase tilt of octahedra.

  • The small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) beamline BL4C1 at the 2.5 GeV storage ring of the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) has been in its first you of operation since August 2000. During this first stage it could meet the basic requirements of the rapidly growing domestic SAXS user community, which has been carrying out measurements mainly on various polymer systems. The X-ray source is a bending magnet which produces white radiation with a critical energy of 5.5 keV. A synthetic double multilayer monochromator selects quasi-monochromatic radiation with a bandwidth of ca. 1.5%. This relatively low degree of monochromatization is sufficient for most SAXS measurements and allows a considerably higher flux at the sample as compared to monochromators using single crystals. Higher harmonics from the monochromator are rejected by reflection from a flat mirror, and a slit system is installed for collimation. A charge-coupled device (CCD) system, two one-dimensional photodiode arrays (PDA) and imaging plates (IP) are available its detectors. The overall performance of the beamline optics and of the detector systems has been checked using various standard samples. While the CCD and PDA detectors are well-suited for diffraction measurements, they give unsatisfactory data from weakly scattering samples, due to their high intrinsic noise. By using the IP system smooth scattering curves could be obtained in a wide dynamic range. In the second stage, stating from August 2001, the beamline will be upgraded with additional slits, focusing optics and gas-filled proportional detectors.

  • Among various metal oxides, ZrO2 is of particular interests and has received widespread attention thanks to its ideal mechanical and chemical stability. As a cheap metal, Ag nanoparticles are also widely used as catalysts in ethylene epoxidation and methanol oxidation. However, the nature of Ag-ZrO2 interfaces is still unknown. In this work, the growth, interfacial interaction and thermal stability of Ag nanoparticles on ZrO2(111) film surfaces were studied by low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy (SRPES), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The ZrO2(111) films were epitaxially grown on Pt(111). Three-dimensional (3D) growth model of Ag on the ZrO2(111) surface at 300 K was observed with a density of ${\sim}2.0{\times}1012particles/cm2$. The binding energy of Ag 3d shifts to low BE from very low to high Ag coverages by 0.5 eV. The Auger parameters shows the primary contribution to the Ag core level BE shift is final state effect, indicating a very weak interaction between Ag clusters and ZrO2(111) film. Thermal stability experiments demonstrate that Ag particles underwent serious sintering before they desorb from the zirconia film surface. In addition, large Ag particles have stronger ability of inhibiting sintering.

  • Creatine kinase (CK; E.C. 2.7.3.2) is an important enzyme that catalyzes the reversible transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to creatine in energy homeostasis. The brain-type cytosolic isoform of creatine kinase (BB-CK), which is found mainly in the brain and retina, is a key enzyme in brain energy metabolism, because high-energy phosphates are transfered through the creatine kinase/phosphocreatine shuttle system. The recombinant human BB-CK protein was overexpressed as a soluble form in Escherichia coli and crystallized at $22^{\circ}C$ using PEG 4000 as a precipitant. Native X-ray diffraction data were collected to $2.2{\AA}$ resolution using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belonged to the tetragonal space group $P4_32_12$, with cell parameters of a=b=97.963, $c=164.312{\AA},\;and\;{\alpha}={\beta}={\gamma}=90^{\circ}$. The asymmetric unit contained two molecules of CK, giving a crystal volume per protein mass $(V_m)$ of $1.80{\AA}^3\;Da^{-1}$ and a solvent content of 31.6%.

  • Lam6 is a member of sterol-specific ${\underline{l}ipid$ transfer proteins ${\underline{a}}nchored$ at ${\underline{m}ebrane$ contact sites (LAMs). Lam6 localizes to the ER-mitochondria contact sites by its PH-like domain and the C-terminal transmembrane helix. Here, we purified and crystallized the Lam6 PH-like domain from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To aid crystallization of the Lam6 PH-like domain, T4 lysozyme was fused to the N-terminus of the Lam6 PH-like domain with a short dipeptide linker, GlySer. The fusion protein was crystallized under the condition of 0.1 M HEPES-HCl pH 7.0, 10% (w/v) PEG 8000, and 0.1 M $Na_3$ Citrate at 293K. X-ray diffraction data of the crystals were collected to $2.4{\AA}$ resolution using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group $P2_12_12_1$ with unit cell parameters $a=59.5{\AA}$, $b=60.1{\AA}$, and $c=105.6{\AA}$. The asymmetric unit contains one T4L-Lam6 molecule with a solvent content of 58.7%. The initial attempt to solve the structure by molecular replacement using the T4 lysozyme structure was successful.

  • We report high performance poly (3-hexylthiophene) organic field-effect transistors fabricated on a plastic substrate. The polymer active channel layer was directly printed by the rubber stamp printing method with a pre-patterned elastomer stamp. As a result. organic transistors having average field-effect mobility of 0.079 $cm^2/Vs$ and on/off ratio of $10^4{\sim}10^5$ were realized on a plastic substrate. Also, through the investigation of the molecular ordering of rubber-stamp-printed poly (3-hexylthiophene) films using synchrotron grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction measurements, the films were found to have edge-on structure which is favorable in realizing high performance organic transistors.

  • The Pt-Ni alloy is an electro-catalyst of interest in the low temperature direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs). It has been already reported that the Pt-Ni alloy catalysts may even have enhanced activity compared to pure platinum catalyst, depending on how the surfaces are prepared. The order-disorder transition in bimetallic alloy such as $\beta$-CuZn, Cu3Au, and CuAu have been investigated greatly by x-ray diffraction. After annealing the bimetallic alloy, the crystal structure changes as observed in the order-disorder transition of Cu3Au which changes from the face centered cubic to a simple cubic structure. Pt-Ni bimetallic alloy has been already reported to have the face centered cubic structure. However, in nano-scale Pt-Ni bimetallic alloy crystals the crystal structures changes to a simple cubic structure. In this experiment, we have studied the order-disorder transition in Pt-Ni bimetallic nanocrystals. Pt/Ni thin films were deposited on sapphire(0001) substrates by e-beam evaporator and then Pt-Ni alloy were formed by RTA at 500, 600, and $700^{\circ}C$ in a vacuum environment and Pt-Ni nano particles were formed by RTA at $1059^{\circ}C$ in a vacuum environment. We measured the structure of Pt-Ni bimetallic alloy films using synchrotron x-ray diffraction and SEM.

  • Alanine racemase, a bacterial enzyme belonging to the fold-type III group of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes, has been shown to catalyze the interconversion between L- and D-alanine. The alanine racemase from the pathogenic bacterium Enterococcus faecalis v583 has been overexpressed in E. coli and was shown to crystallize an enzyme at 295 K, using polyethylene glycol (PEG) 8000 as a precipitant. X-ray diffraction data to $2.5{\AA}$ has been collected using synchrotron radiation. The crystal is a member of the orthorhombic space group, $C222_1$ with unit cell parameter of a=94.634, b=156.516, $c=147.878{\AA},\;and\;{\alpha}={\beta}={\gamma}=90{\AA}$. Two or three monomers are likely to be present in the asymmetric unit, with a corresponding $V_m\; of\;3.38{\AA}^3\;Da^{-1}\;and\;2.26{\AA}^3\;Da^{-1}$ and a solvent content of 63.7% and 45.5%, respectively.
