Chromosomal gene transferable hybrid plasmids, RP4::Mu cts and RP4::mini-Mu, were transferred by conjugation from E. coli to Pseudomonas strains. In order to use for recipient cells of RP4::Mu cts and RP4:: mini-Mu, plasmid-free Pseudomonas strains were characterized for their antobiotic resistance, aromatic hydrocarbon utility and degradation patterns of chlorinated herbicide. Transfer frequencies of RP4::mini-Mu exhibited about $10^{-2}$ to $10^{-4}$, while those of RP4::Mu cts exhibited very low value of $10^{-7}$ in recipients tested except Pseudomonas aeruginosa KU557. Existance of hybrid plasmids in Pseudomonas transconjugants were identified by their antibiotic resistance and agarose gel electrophoresis. In case of RP4::Mu cts transconjugants it was also confirmed by demonstrating that they were capable of releasing phage and forming plaques at $43^{\circ}C$. Plaque forming unit of the transconjugants was about $10^{5}$. It was shown by the stability test that RP4::Mu cts and RP4::mini-Mu in Pseudomonas were relatively stable.

In this paper, the design, fabrication and experiment on a planar array antenna with a flat-topped radiation pattern for a mobile base station antenna were described. The current distribution of an antenna aperture, which is easily realizable in a feeding network compared with the conventional one of sin(x)/x was optimized for shaping a desired flat-topped radiation pattern. The planar array antenna designed in this paper has a rectangular lattice and is composed of array elements of 16${\times}$8. Each radiating element, which is a microstrip element fed coaxially, has a linear vertical polarization and the feed network which use a Wilkinson power divider and a 180$^{\circ}$ ring hybrid coupler as a base element is designed. The flat-topped radiation pattern with 90$^{\circ}$ is shaped by 16 array elements with the element spacing of 0.55 λ$_{ο}$ in the azimuth plane, and the normal radiation pattern with 10$^{\circ}$ is shaped by 8 array elements with the element spacing of 0.65 λ$_{ο}$ in the elevation plane. Also, the planar array antenna is symmetrically divided into four parts. It consists of one hundred-twenty-eight radiating elements, thirty-two 1-4 column dividers, low 1-8 row dividers and one 1-4 input power divider. In order to verify electrical performances of the planar way antenna proposed in this paper, the experimental breadboard operated in tile band of 1.92～2.17 GHz(IMT2000 band) was fabricated, and its experimental results were a good agreement with simulation ones.

Zinc has a number of characteristics that make it well suited for use as a coating to protecting iron and steel products from corrosion. Its excellent corrosion resistance in most environments accounts for its successful use as a protective coating on a variety of products and in many exposure conditions. The excellent field performance of zinc coatings results from their ability to form dense, adherent films that corrode at a rate that ranges from 1% to 10% of the corrosion rate of ferrous materials, depending on the environment. Recently, EU RoHS and EU ELV prohibited the use of materials that adversely affect the environment, such as Pb, Hg, Cd, and $Cr^{+6}$. In this study, environmentally-friendly, Cr-free solutions (epoxy solution, acrylic solution, and urethane solution S-700) and organic/inorganic solution with Si; LRO-317) were used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of zinc-coated steel subjected to a saltwater spray for 72 hours. The coating of urethane solution (S-700) was best among the three kinds of solution with heat treatment during five minutes at $190^{\circ}F$. Test specimens with S-700 and LRO-317 coating were heat treated in a drying oven at 170, 180, 190, 200, and $210^{\circ}C$ for five minutes. The results show that the optimum corrosion resistance was $190^{\circ}C$ in EGI and $170^{\circ}C$ in HDGI, respectively.

Interspecific hybrids between Aspergillus oryzae var. oryzae and Penicillium chrysogenum (Tyr$\^$-/), high alkaline protease producing fungi, were obtained by nuclear transfer technique. Nuclei isolated from the wild type Aspergillus oryzae var. oryzae strain were transferred into auxotrophic Penicillium chrysogenum mutants and selected the new strains showing an increased protein degrading capability. Maximum production of protoplasts were obtained by 1% Novozym 234 at $30^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and the most effective osmotic stabilizers for the isolation of protoplasts were 0.6M KCl. Frequencies of hybrid formation by nuclear transfer were 1.3${\times}$10$\^$-3/∼2.8${\times}$10$\^$-3/. They could be suggested as an aneuploid by the observation of genetic stability, conidial size, DNA content, and nuclear strain. The hybrids showed 1.1～2.2 fold higher alkaline pretense activities than parental strains.

나노임프린트 리소그라피(Nano-Imprint Lithography, NIL) 기술은 기판위의 resin을 나노구조물이 각인된 스탬프로 눌러서 나노구조물을 형성하는 기술로, 경제적이고 효과적으로 나노구조물을 제작할 수 있는 기술이다. 그중에서도 UV 기반의 나노임프린트(UV-NIL) 기술은 resin을 투명한 스탬프로 누른뒤 UV로 경화시켜 나노구조물을 형성하는 기술로써 고온, 고압($140{\sim}180^{\circ}C$, 10~30bar)이 필요한 가열식 나노임프린트 기술에 비해 상온, 상압($20^{\circ}C$, 1bar)에서도 구조물 형성이 가능하여 다층구조 형성에 적합하다. 연속적인 임프린팅 공정에 의해 resin이 quarz 스탬프에 잔류하여 패터닝에 결함을 유발하게 되므로 오염물을 제거하기 위한 세정공정이 필요하다. 하지만 UV에 의해 경화된 resin은 cross-linking을 형성하여 화학적인 내성이 증가하게 되므로 제거하기가 어렵다. 현재는 resin 제거를 위한 세정공정으로 SPM($H_2SO_4/H_2O_2$) 세정이 사용되고 있는데 세정시간이 길고 세정 후에 입자 또는 황 잔유물이 남으며 많은 유해용액 사용의 문제점이 있어 효과적으로 resin을 제거할 세정공정이 필요한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 친환경적인 UV 세정 및 오존수 세정공정을 적용하여 경화된 resin을 제거하는 연구를 진행하였다. 실험샘플은 약 100nm 두께의 resin을 증착한 $1.5cm{\times}1.5cm$ $SiO_2$ 쿠폰 wafer를 사용하였으며, UV 및 오존수의 처리시간을 달리하여 resin 제거효율을 평가하였다. ATR-FTIR 장비를 사용하여 시간에 따른 resin의 두께를 측정한 결과, UV 세정으로 100nm 높이의 resin중에 80nm의 bulk resin이 단시간에 제거가 되었고 나머지 20nm의 resin thin film은 오존수 세정으로 쉽게 제거되는 것을 확인 하였다. 또한 표면에 남은 resin residue와 particle을 제거하기 위해서 SC-1 세정을 진행하였고 contact angle과 optical microscope 장비를 사용하여 resin이 모두 제거된 것을 확인하였다.

Intergeneric hybrids between Aspergillus niger and Perricillium ch~y.sop~um(Tyr ), hyperlipolytic enzyne-producing fungi, were obtained by nuclear transfer technique:. Optimal conditions for formation of intergeneric hybrids were investigated. Maximum production of protoplasts were obtainrd by 1% Novozym 234 at $30^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs and the most effective osmotic stabilizers for the isolation of protoplasts were 0.6 M KC]. Frequencies of hybrid formation by nuclear transfer were $1.3{\times}$10^{-3}$$ $-3.8{\times}$10^{-3}$$. From the chervation of genetic stability, conidial size, DNA content, ;md nuclear stain, it was suggested that their karyotypes are aneuploid. The hybrids showed 1.4-2.2 fold higher lipase activities than parental strains. It was strongly supported by results of this study that nuclear transfer technique is much more efficient in the formation of intergeneric hybrids than protoplast fusion and is very useful for the improvement of strains.

The increase of traffic over a bridge has been emerged as one of the most severe problems in view of bridge maintenance, since the load effect caused by the vehicle passage over the bridge has brought out a long-term damage to bridge structure, and it is nearly impossible to maintain operational serviceability of bridge to user's satisfactory level without any concern on bridge maintenance at the phase of completion. Moreover, bridge maintenance operation should be performed by regular inspection over the bridge to prevent structural malfunction or unexpected accidents front breaking out by monitoring on cracks or deformations during service. Therefore, technical breakthrough related to this uninterested field of bridge maintenance leading the public to the turning point of recognition is desperately needed. This study has the aim of development on automated inspection system to lower surface of bridge superstructures to replace the conventional system of bridge inspection with the naked eye, where the monitoring staff is directly on board to refractive or other type of maintenance .vehicles, with which it is expected that we can solve the problems essentially where the results of inspection are varied to change with subjective manlier from monitoring staff, increase stabilities in safety during the inspection, and make contribution to construct data base by providing objective and quantitative data and materials through image processing method over data captured by cameras. By this system it is also expected that objective estimation over the right time of maintenance and reinforcement work will lead enormous decrease in maintenance cost.

Field and phytotron experiments were conducted to determine the effect of morphological growth stage and environmental temperature on Weender components and net energy lactation (NEL) in corn cv. Blizzard and sorghum cv. Pioneer 931 and Sioux at Munich Technical University from 1978 to 1981. Various growth stages of maize and sorghum were grown for 42 days at 4 temperature regimes (30/25, 25/20, 28/18 and 18/8 degree C) and mid-summer sunlight over 13 hour days. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Accumulation of crude protein in maize and sorghum plants was associated with leaf weight ratio and leaf area ratio ($P{\leq}0.1%$). Crude protein in the plants were shown to have a greate synthesis rates at early growth stages. The highest concentration of crude protein were found at 3-leaf stage with 31.4% and 33.9% for maize and sorghum, respectively. 2. Synthesis of crude fiber was increased after growing point differentiation markedly and were shown the highest concentration at heading stage with 28.4% and 31.5% for maize and sorghum, respectively. During the maturities, the crude fiber contents in maize were, however decreased and shown a value of 19.5% at physiological maturity, while that of sorghum were increased continuously. 3. NEL value in maize and sorghum plants were declined as morphological development and shown the lowest at growing point differentiation with 5.82 MJ (maize) and 5.46 MJ/kg (sorghum). During the late maturity, the NEL value of maize were increased markedly and shown a value of 6.70 MJ and 6.94 MJ/kg for milkstage and maturity stage, respectively, while NEL value in sorghum were not increased markedly. 4. Net energy lactation in maize and sorghum plants were associated with synthesis rate of non-structural carbohydrates, especially mono- and disaccharose while cell-wall constituents and crude fiber lowerd NEL contents ($P{\leq}0.1%$). 5. NEL accumulation and starch value were decreased under temperature. The NEL concentration of 4-leaf sorghum under different environmental temperatures of 30/25, 25/20, and 18/8 degree C were 4.87 MJ, 5.46 MJ and 5.81 MJ/kg, respectively.
