(In, Ga) N-based III-nitride semiconductor materials have been viewed as the most promising materials for the applications of blue and green light emitting devices such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes. Although the InGaN alloy can have wide range of visible wavelength by changing the In composition, it is very hard to grow high quality epilayers of In-rich InGaN because of the thermal instability as well as the large lattice and thermal mismatches. In order to avoid phase separation of InGaN, various kinds of structures of InGaN have been studied. If high-quality In-rich InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) structures are available, it is expected to achieve highly efficient phosphor-free white LEDs. In this study, we proposed a novel InGaN double hetero-structure grown on GaN nano-pyramids to generate broad-band red-color emission with high quantum efficiency. In this work, we systematically studied the optical properties of the InGaN pyramid structures. The nano-sized hexagonal pyramid structures were grown on the n-type GaN template by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. SiNx mask was formed on the n-type GaN template with uniformly patterned circle pattern by laser holography. GaN pyramid structures were selectively grown on the opening area of mask by lateral over-growth followed by growth of InGaN/GaN double hetero-structure. The bird's eye-view scanning electron microscope (SEM) image shows that uniform hexagonal pyramid structures are well arranged. We showed that the pyramid structures have high crystal quality and the thickness of InGaN is varied along the height of pyramids via transmission electron microscope. Because the InGaN/GaN double hetero-structure was grown on the nano-pyramid GaN and on the planar GaN, simultaneously, we investigated the comparative study of the optical properties. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of nano-pyramid sample and planar sample measured at 10 K. Although the growth condition were exactly the same for two samples, the nano-pyramid sample have much lower energy emission centered at 615 nm, compared to 438 nm for planar sample. Moreover, nano-pyramid sample shows broad-band spectrum, which is originate from structural properties of nano-pyramid structure. To study thermal activation energy and potential fluctuation, we measured PL with changing temperature from 10 K to 300 K. We also measured PL with changing the excitation power from 48 ${\mu}W$ to 48 mW. We can discriminate the origin of the broad-band spectra from the defect-related yellow luminescence of GaN by carrying out PL excitation experiments. The nano-pyramid structure provided highly efficient broad-band red-color emission for the future applications of phosphor-free white LEDs.

남극해에는 산업적으로 유용한 신규 효소촉매를 생산하는 미생물들이 들어 있다. 우리는 로스해(Ross Sea)로부터 분리한 여러 저온성 박테리아를 조사하였으며, 그 중에서 지방분해 능력이 뛰어난 Croceibacter atlanticus (No. 40-F12)를 찾았다. Shotgun 클로닝 방법으로 리파아제 유전자(lipCA)를 찾았으며 Escherichia coli 균에서 LipCA 효소를 발현하였다. Spain Arreo metagenome alpha/beta hydrolase를 기준으로 LipCA 상동구조모델을 만들어서 분석한 결과, ${\alpha}/{\beta}$ hydrolase fold, Gly-X-Ser-X-Gly motif, 그리고 lid 구조를 갖고 있기 때문에 전형적인 리파아제 효소임이 밝혀졌다. Ammonium sulfate 침전법과 겔여과 크로마토그래피를 통해서 세포추출액으로부터 LipCA 효소를 순수하게 분리한 후, 최적 온도, pH, 안정성, 기질특이성, 유기용매 안정성 등의 효소특성을 규명하였다. LipCA를 cross-linked enzyme aggregate (CLEA) 방법으로 고정화하고 효소특성을 조사, 비교하였다. 고정화를 통해 온도, pH, 유기용매에 대한 안정성이 증가하였고 기질특이성의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. $LipCA^{CLEA}$는 원심분리 방법으로 쉽게 회수되었고 4번의 재사용 후에 40% 이상의 활성이 잔재하였다. 이 논문은 C. atlanticus 리파아제의 발현, 특성규명, Cross-linked Enzyme Aggregated 고정화를 바탕으로 안정성을 높여 산업적 활용 가능성을 제시한 최초의 보고이다.

최근 유한연료의 고갈로 인해 세계 유가가 불안정 됨으로서 대체 에너지에 대한 연구가 많이 진행 되고 있다. 특히 압전 소자를 이용한 에너지 하베스팅은 압전 역효과를 이용한 것으로서 주변에서 무의미하게 버려지는 진동이나 바람, 열 에너지를 실 생활에 사용할 수 있는 전기 에너지로 변환할 수 있는 유망한 기술 중 하나이다. 이러한 에너지 하베스팅 기술은 일본과 같은 선진국에서 이미 지하철 및 일반 다리와 같이 진동이 극히 많은 곳에서 응용되고 있다. 이러한 에너지 하베스팅 기술을 응용 하려면 전압출력 계수($g_{33}$)가 높아야 한다. 이것은 압전 d 상수와 유전상수에 영향을 많이 받는 것으로 알려져 있다. 현재가지 응용되는 압전 하베스팅 조성은 Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT)를 기초로한 세라믹이 응용되고 있다. Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) 세라믹은 Morpohotropic phase boundary(MPB)에서 전기기계 결합계수 (kp) 와 기계적 품질계수 (Qm) 이 각각 0.5와 500으로 우수한 특성을 나타낸다. 또한 큐리온도 (Tc) 도 $400^{\circ}C$로 온도 안정성 또한 높다. 하지만 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 소결하는 PbO는 소결 중 급격한 휘발로 환경적 오염 뿐 아니라 특성의 저하를 야기시킨다. 그래서 몇몇 나라에서는 그 사용을 제한하고 점차적으로 사용을 줄여 나가고 있는 동시에 PbO가 첨가되어 있지 않은 Lead-Free 세라믹의 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. Lead-Free 세라믹 중 alkaline niobate를 기초로 한 페로브스카이트 구조의 ($Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3$ (NKN) 은 PbO를 기초로 한 세라믹을 대체할 유망한 후보자 중 하나이다. 하지만 NKN세라믹의 K 성분의 조해성 및 고온에서의 휘발로 인해 일반 적인 소결 방법으로는 고밀도의 세라믹을 얻기 매우 어렵다. 그래서 Hot pressing, Hot forging, RTGG(Reactive Template Grain Growth), SPS(Spark plasma Sintering)와 같은 특별한 소결 법을 이용하거나 $K_8CuNb_4O_{23}$(KCN) 이나 $K_{5.4}Cu_{1.3}Ta_{10}O_{29}$(KCT) 등을 첨가하여 그 소결성을 향상 시키는 방법도 있다. 또한 압전 d상수를 향상 시키기 위해 $Nb_2O_5$나, $La_2CO_3$, $CeO_2$, $Li_2CO_3$ 등을 치환함으로써 압전 d상수를 향상 시켜 전압출력 계수를 높이는 연구 또한 많은 보고가 되어 있다. 특히 $Li_2CO_3$의 첨가는 일반 적인 소결 방법으로도 밀도의 조밀함을 향상 시켜 그에 따른 높은 유전율과 전기기계 결합계수, 압전 d상수를 가져 많은 연구가 되어지고 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 일반적인 ($K_{0.5}N_{0.5})_{1-x}Li_x(Nb_{0.96}Sb_{0.04})O_3$ + 0.2mol%$La_2O_3$ + 1.2mol%$K_8CuNb_4O_{23}$ 세라믹에 x(=Li) 치환에 따른 유전 및 압전특성을 조사하였다.

Metal oxide gas sensors based on semiconductor type have attracted a great deal of attention due to their low cost, flexible production and simple usability. However, most works have been focused on n-type oxides, while the characteristics of p-type oxide gas sensors have been barely studied. An investigation on p-type oxides is very important in that the use of them makes possible the novel sensors such as p-n diode and tandem devices. Monoclinic cupric oxide (CuO) is p-type semiconductor with narrow band gap (~1.2 eV). This is composed of abundant, nontoxic elements on earth, and thus low-cost, environment-friendly devices can be realized. However, gas sensing properties of neat CuO were rarely explored and the mechanism still remains unclear. In this work, the neat CuO layers with highly ordered mesoporous structures were prepared by a template-free, one-pot solution-based method using novel ink solutions, formulated with copper formate tetrahydrate, hexylamine and ethyl cellulose. The shear viscosity of the formulated solutions was 5.79 Pa s at a shear rate of 1 s-1. The solutions were coated on SiO2/Si substrates by spin-coating (ink) and calcined for 1 h at the temperature of $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ in air. The surface and cross-sectional morphologies of the formed CuO layers were observed by a focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) and porosity was determined by image analysis using simple computer-programming. XRD analysis showed phase evolutions of the layers, depending on the calcination temperature, and thermal decompositions of the neat precursor and the formulated ink were investigated by TGA and DSC. As a result, the formation of the porous structures was attributed to the vaporization of ethyl cellulose contained in the solutions. Mesoporous CuO, formed with the ink solution, consisted of grains and pores with nano-meter size. All of them were strongly dependent on calcination temperature. Sensing properties toward H2 and C2H5OH gases were examined as a function of operating temperature. High and fast responses toward H2 and C2H5OH gases were discussed in terms of crystallinity, nonstoichiometry and morphological factors such as porosity, grain size and surface-to-volume ratio. To our knowledge, the responses toward H2 and C2H5OH gases of these CuO gas sensors are comparable to previously reported values.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal microleakage of condensable composite resin restorations according to flowable resin lining of internal cavity wall. The eighty extracted human molar teeth without caries and/or restorations are used The experimental teeth were randomly assigned into four groups of ten teeth each. Eighty caries-free extracted human molars were used in this study. The conventional class II cavities (box-shaped on mesial and distal surface, faciolingual width : 3mm, gingival wall depth : 1.5mm) were prepared 1mm below cementoenamel junction with a # 701 carbide bur. The teeth were divided into four groups, and then each group were subdivided into A & B group according to flowable resin & compomer lining ; Group 1-A : Tetric Ceram filling, Group 1-B : Tetric Flow lining and Tetric Ceram filling, Group 2-A Ariston pHc filling, Group 2-B : Tetric Flow lining and Ariston pHc filing, Group 3-A SureFil filling, Group 3-B : Dyract Flow lining and SureFil filling, Group 4-A : Pyramid filling, Group 4-B : Aeliteflo lining and Pyramid filling. To simulate as closely as possible the clinical situation during retoration placement, a "restoration template" was fabricated, and the condensable resin was filled using a three-sited light-curing incremental technique. All the materials used were applied according to the manufacturers' instructions. The specimens were stored in the 100% humidity for 7 days prior to thermocycling (100 thermal cycles of 5~55$^{\circ}C$ water with a 30-second dwell time) The specimens were immersed in 2% metyleneblue dye for 24 hours, and then embedded in transparent acrylic resin and sectioned mesiodistally with diamond wheel saw. The degree of marginal leakage was scored under stereomicroscope ($\times$20) and the data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Wilcoxon signed ranks test. The results were as follows : 1. In the gingival margins of all the group, microleakage of subgroup B was less than subgroup A. 2. In the group 1, 2, 4, there was significant differences between subgroup A and B (p<0.05), but in the group 3, there was not significant different between group 3-A (SureFil) and group 3-B (Dyract flow/SureFil) (p>0.05). 3. In the subgroup A and B, there was significant different between all group except group 4 of subgroup A. From the results above, it was suggested that the cavity lining of flowable resin and flowable compomer in condensable resin restoration decrease microleakage at gingival margin, and does improve their ability to seal the gingival margin of class II preparation.

Titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films have valuable properties such as a high refractive index, excellent transmittance in the visible and near-IR frequency, and high chemical stability. Therefore it is extensively used in anti-reflection coating, sensor, and photocatalysis as electrical and optical applications. Specially, TiO2 have a high dielectric constant of 180 along the c axis and 90 along the a axis, so it is highlighted in fabricating dielectric capacitors in micro electronic devices. A variety of methods have been used to produce patterned self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), including microcontact printing ($\mu$CP), UV-photolithotgraphy, e-beam lithography, scanned-probe based micro-machining, and atom-lithography. Above all, thin film fabrication on $\mu$CP modified surface is a potentially low-cost, high-throughput method, because it does not require expensive photolithographic equipment, and it produce micrometer scale patterns in thin film materials. The patterned SAMs were used as thin resists, to transfer patterns onto thin films either by chemical etching or by selective deposition. In this study, we deposited TiO2 thin films on Si (1000 substrateds using titanium (IV) isopropoxide ([Ti(O(C3H7)4)] ; TIP as a single molecular precursor at deposition temperature in the range of 300-$700^{\circ}C$ without any carrier and bubbler gas. Crack-free, highly oriented TiO2 polycrystalline thin films with anatase phase and stoichimetric ratio of Ti and O were successfully deposited on Si(100) at temperature as low as 50$0^{\circ}C$. XRD and TED data showed that below 50$0^{\circ}C$, the TiO2 thin films were dominantly grown on Si(100) surfaces in the [211] direction, whereas with increasing the deposition temperature to $700^{\circ}C$, the main films growth direction was changed to be [200]. Two distinct growth behaviors were observed from the Arhenius plots. In addition to deposition of THe TiO2 thin films on Si(100) substrates, patterning of TiO2 thin films was also performed at grown temperature in the range of 300-50$0^{\circ}C$ by MOCVD onto the Si(100) substrates of which surface was modified by organic thin film template. The organic thin film of SAm is obtained by the $\mu$CP method. Alpha-step profile and optical microscope images showed that the boundaries between SAMs areas and selectively deposited TiO2 thin film areas are very definite and sharp. Capacitance - Voltage measurements made on TiO2 films gave a dielectric constant of 29, suggesting a possibility of electronic material applications.

본 연구에서는 다중 코팅 폴리에스터(PET) 섬유 여재의 항바이러스 소재 응용 가능성을 고찰하기 위해 금속산화물, 키토산, 및 구리이온의 첨착 조건에 따른 PET의 항균 및 항바이러스 성능을 평가하였다. 항균 물질이 단독으로 코팅된 PET 대비 다중 코팅 PET의 경우 첨착량을 감소시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 배양 후 박테리아가 육안상으로 검출되지 않는데(< 10 CFU/mL) 필요한 균 접촉시간을 단축할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 금속산화물은 촉매반응에 의해 라디칼 등의 산소 활성종을 생성하며, 구리이온은 접촉 살균 효과를 가지면서 산소 활성종에 의한 박테리아와 바이러스의 손상에 기여한다. 키토산은 구리이온의 배위결합을 통한 고정화뿐만 아니라 아민기에 의한 살균 효과로 코팅 PET의 항균 성능 향상 효과를 보였다. 다중 코팅 PET는 대장균과 황색포도상구균에 대한 항균 효과 외에 인플루엔자 A (H1N1)와 SARS-CoV-2에 대해 99.9% 이상의 항바이러스 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 대면적 roll-to-roll 공정을 통해서도 다중 코팅 PET 섬유 여재의 제조가 가능하고 높은 항바이러스 성능이 유지됨을 보였으며, 이는 공기정화용 필터, 마스크, 및 개인 보호용구과 같은 항바이러스 직물 소재로서 관련 산업에 응용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical validity of the modified tunneling technique using minimal soft tissue harvesting and volume-stable collagen matrix in the anterior mandible. Methods: In total, 27 anterior mandibular teeth and palatal donor sites in 17 patients with ≥1 mm of gingival recession (GR) were analyzed before and after root coverage. For the recipient sites, vertical vestibular incisions were made in the interdental area and a subperiosteal tunnel was created with an elevator. After both sides of the marginal gingiva were tied to one another, a prepared connective tissue graft and volume-stable collagen matrix were inserted through the vestibular vertical incision and were fixed with resorbable suture material. The root coverage results of the recipient site were measured at baseline (T₀), 3 weeks (T₃), 12 weeks (T₁₂), and the latest visit (T_l). For palatal donor sites, a free gingival graft from a pre-decided area avoiding the main trunk of the greater palatine artery was harvested using a prefabricated surgical template at a depth of 2 mm after de-epithelization using a rotating bur. In each patient, the clinical and volumetric changes at the donor sites between T₀ and T₃ were measured. Results: During an average follow-up of 14.5 months, teeth with denuded root lengths of 1-3 mm (n=12), 3-6 mm (n=11), and >6 mm (n=2) achieved root coverage of 97.01%±7.65%, 86.70%±5.66%, and 82.53%±1.39%, respectively. Miller classification I (n=12), II (n=10), and III (n=3) teeth showed mean coverage rates of 97.01%±7.65%, 86.91%±5.90%, and 83.19%±1.62%, respectively. At the donor sites, an average defect depth of 1.41 mm (70.5%) recovered in 3 weeks, and the wounds were epithelized completely in all cases. Conclusions: The modified tunneling technique in this study is a promising treatment modality for overcoming GR in the anterior mandible.
