In this paper, we introduce the concepts of ${\gamma}$-fuzzy feebly open and ${\gamma}$-fuzzy feebly closed sets in Sostak's fuzzy topological spaces and by using them, we explain the notions of ${\gamma}$-fuzzy F-closed spaces. Also, we give some characterization of ${\gamma}$-fuzzy F-closedness in terms of fuzzy filterbasis and ${\gamma}$-fuzzy feebly-${\theta}$-cluster points.

Eggs used in this study were obtained from Saudi Arabian Baladi laying hens which were divided into four experimental groups and subjected to the following treatments: Commercial laying ration (17% CP, 3.6% Ca and 0.343%, available P) fed ad libitum as a control (C); Conventional force molting, feed removal for 10 days followed by 18 days full-feed of cracked corn (F); 15 days ad libitum intake of the control ration supplemented, to initiate forced-molt, with 0.35% aluminum as the sulfate (ALS) or the chloride (ALC). The hens were in production for 52 weeks and 17 months of age at the start of the trial and the post-treatment period lasted 36 weeks. During the treatment period F and AL treated groups had similar egg and shell weight, egg surface area, shell thickness and shell weight per unit of surface area but significantly (p<0.05) lower than the control. F had significantly (p<0.05) the highest and the control the lowest Haugh unit values whereas AL fed groups had significantly (p<0.05) lower meat spot incidence compared with the control which tended to have higher value than F group. ALC and F had significantly (p<0.05) the lowest yolk color grade whereas ALC had significantly (p<0.05) lower egg index than ALS and the control. During the post-treatment period the control had significantly (p<0.05) the highest egg index and blood spots incidence and ALS the lowest shell diensity compared with other groups. ALS had significantly (p<0.05) lower shell weight than ALC and the control whereas F and AL treated hens had significantly (p<0.05) the highest Haugh unit values and yolk color grades respectively. F had significantly (p<0.05) lower meat spots incidence than ALC and the control. The same results were observed for ALS compared with the control.

Large colorless single crystals of analcime with diameters up to 0.20 mm have been synthesized from gels with the composition of $3.00SiO_2$ : $1.50NaAlO_2$ : 8.02NaOH : $454H_2O$ : 5.00TEA. The fully $Na^+$-exchanged analcime have been prepared with aqueous 0.1 M NaCl (pH adjusted from 6 to 11 by dropwise addition of NaOH). The single-crystal structure of hydrated $|Na_{0.94}(H_2O)|[Si_{2.06}Al_{0.94}O_6]$-ANA per unit cell, a=13.703(3) ${\AA}$, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique in the orthorhombic space group Ibca at 294 K. The structure was refined using all intenties to the final error indices (using only the 1,446 reflections for which $F_o$ > $4{\sigma}(F_o))R_1/wR_2$ = 0.054/0.143. About 15 $Na^+$ ions are located at three nonequivalent positions and octahedrally coordinated. The chemical composition is $Na_{0.94}(H_2O)Si_{2.06}Al_{0.94}O_6$. The Si/Al ratio of synthetic analcime is 2.19 determined by the occupations of cations, 14.79, in the single-crystal determination work.

studies of olefin oxidation using Al(III)-porphyrin complexes as catalyst are investigated in CH2Cl2, in which NaClO is used as terminal oxidant. Porphyrins are TPP(5,10,15,20-Tetraphenylporphyrin) and (p-X)TPP(X=CH3O, CH3, F, Cl). Olefins are styrene and (p-X)styrene (X=CH3O, CH3, Cl, Br). The values of Km and Vmax are calculated from the Michaelis-Menten equation. According to the substituents of substrate and catalyst, kinetic parameters will be measured. Investigating the correlation between the Michaelis-Menten rate parameters and the substituent constants, we were able to analyze the influence on the changes of catalytic activity or the rate determining step during the process of the formation and the dissociation of the M-oxo-olefin.

Chemical composition and status of chemical bonding of the YAG($Y_3Al_5O_{12}$) ceramics after the exposure to fluorine plasma have been investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, with the analysis on its erosion behavior. On the surface, F showed the maximum content, decreasing with depth, meanwhile the cation composition remained almost constant, irrespective of the position. The peaks due to Y in the reaction layer consisted of two kinds, showing the Y-O and Y-F bonds. These surface modifications under fluorine plasma seem to promote the erosion of the YAG ceramics. Excess addition of $Al_2O_3$ or $Y_2O_3$ into stoichiometric YAG produced 2nd phases of $Al_2O_3$ and $YAlO_3$, respectively, resulting in the slight difference in the local erosion rates. But, the overall average erosion rate was not sensitive to such excess additions of $Al_2O_3$ or $Y_2O_3$.

This paper presents a study of the effect of thickness of porous Al-Ni electrodes, on the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) in alkaline media. As varying deposition time at 300 W DC sputtering power, the thickness of the Al-Ni electrodes was controlled from 1 to $20{\mu}m$. The heat treatment was carried out in $610^{\circ}C$, followed by selective leaching of the Al-rich phase. XRD studies confirmed the presence of $Al_3Ni_2$ intermetallic compounds after the heat treatment, indicating the diffusion of Ni from the Ni-rich phase to Al-rich phase. The porous structure of the Al-Ni electrodes after the selective leaching of Al was also confirmed in SEM-EDS analysis. The double layer capacitance ($C_{dl}$) and roughness factor ($R_f$) of the electrodes were increased for the thicker Al-Ni electrodes. As opposed to the general results in above, there were no further improvements of the HER activity in the case of the electrode thickness above $10{\mu}m$. This result may indicate that the $R_f$ is not the primary factor for the HER activity in alkaline media.

In this study, we investigated the influences of potassium fluoride(KF) addition on the surface characteristics of plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO) coating produced on Al alloy. The PEO of marine grade Al alloy(5083 grade) was conducted in KOH 1g/L solution adding different concentrations of KF(0, 1 and 2 g/L) under a galvanostatic regime. With KF addition, unusual behavior was observed on the voltage-time characteristic curves, which can be characterized by the following process: (i) initial rapid increase in voltage (ii) a short plateau after 1st breakdown (iii) gradual increase in voltage (iv) intermittent fluctuation of voltage after 2nd breakdown. The SEM observation revealed irregular surface morphology with KF addition, as compared with one formed without KF addition, which had a reticulate structure. The XRD analysis detected the formation of aluminium hydroxide fluoride hydrate($H_{4.76}Al_2F_{3.24}O_{3.76}$) on surface grown by PEO process with KF. Particularly, at very early stage of the process (~ 120 s), thin film was formed having nanoporous structure, and F element was confirmed on surface by EDS analysis. The thickness and surface roughness of the coating increased with increasing KF concentration. As a result, KF addition was found to be less beneficial influences on PEO of marine grade Al alloy, and therefore needs further research to improve its capability.

Built-in voltage in organic light-emitting diodes was studied using modulated photocurrent technique ambient conditions. From the bias voltage-dependent photocurrent, built-in voltage of the device is determined. The applied bias voltage when the magnitude of modulated photo current is zero corresponds to a built-in voltage. Built-in voltage in the device is generated due to a difference of work function of the anode and cathode. A device was made with a structure of anode/$Alq_3$/cathode to study a built-in voltage. ITO and ITO/PEDOT:PSS were used as an anode, and Al and LiF/AI were used as a cathode. It was found that an incorporation of PEDOT:PSS layer between the ITO and $Alq_3$ increases a built-in voltage by about 0.4V. This is consistent to a difference of a highest occupied energy states of ITO and PEDOT:PSS. This implies that a use of PEDOT:PSS layer in anode improves the efficiency of the device because of a lowering of anode barrier height. With a use bilayer cathode system LiF/Al, it was found that the built-in voltage increases as the LiF layer thickness increases in the thickness range of 0~1nm. For 1nm thick LiF layer, there is a lowering of electron barrier by about 0.2eV with respect to an Al-only device. It indicates that a very thin alkaline metal compound LiF lowers an electron barrier height.

Sinterability, mechanical and electrical properties of yttria-stabilized zirconia(92 mole% $ZrO_{2}$+8 mole% $Y_{2}O_{3}$) doped with 0.5 mole% $SiO_{2}$ and $0{\sim}2.0 mole%{\;}Al_{2}O_{3}$ were studied as a function of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ addition. Sintered density increased with increasing $Al_{2}O_{3}$ addition up to 0.5 mole % but leveled off with further addition. Victors hardness is proportional to sintered density. The specimen with 0.5 mole% $Al_{2}O_{3}$ and 0.5 mole% $SiO_{2}$ exhibited the maximum electrical conductivity and revealed a maximum electromotive force for a given oxygen partial pressure. Experimental voltage curve of this oxygen sensor take on a sharper, more steplike transition at the stoichiometric A/F ratio than those of other commercial oxygen sensors.
