We have previously reported that simulated snuff dipping in conjunction with type I herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) induced oral malignant changes in hamsters. Present study was designed to investigate the carcinogenic effect of tobacco specific-N-nitrosamines (TSNAs) and HSV-1, alone or in combination, in hamsters. Hamsters were divided into 6 groups and the right buccal pouch mucosa were treated as follows: Grp 1, Control (Mock inoculation) [MI]+Topical Application [TA] of mineral oil[MO] : Grp 2, TA of 1% n'- nitrosonornicotine [NNN] + IM: Grp3, TA of 1% 4-N-nitrosomethylamino-1- (3-pyridyl)-1-butanone [NNK] + MI: Grp 4, HSV-1 inoculation [HI]+TA of MO : Grp 5, TA of 1% N-nitrosonornicotine [NNN] + HI: Grp 6, TA of 1% NNK + HI. TA of MO or TSNAs was initiated 1 day after the MI or HI and given 3 times per week for 20 consecutive weeks. At the buccal pouches were fixed for light microscope examination. No animal s developed tumors or malignant histopathologic changes in the mucosa of the buccal pouches. These data indicate that individual TSNAs, alone or in conjunction with HSV-1 infection, do not develop malignant changes in hamster buccal pouches.

This study was carried out to investigate the antimutagenic effects of five kinds of apple enzymatic browning reaction products(AEBRP) on mitomycin C (MMC), N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide(4NQO), benzo(${alpha}$)pyrene(B(${alpha}$)P) and 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyri-do [4,3-b]indol (Trp-P-1). In spore rec-assay using B. subtilis Hl7($rec^+$) and M45($rec^-$), homocatechol-AEBRP and hydroquinone-AEBRP showed strong antimutagenic effects on MMC and MNNG as the concentration of AEBRP increased. In the Ames test using S. typhimurium TA98 and TA100, hydroxyhydroquinone-AEBRP and pyrogallol-AEBRP showed strong antimutagenic effects on Trp-p-1 and B(${alpha}$)p in TA98 and TA100 in the presence of S-9 mix. Most of AEBRPs suppressed about 50% to 80% the mutagenesis in S. typhimurium TA98 induced by MNNG, however, AEBRPs except hydroxyhydroquinone-AEBRP showed antimutagenic effects of about 94% in TA100. Antimutagenic effects of the five kinds of AEBRPs on 4-NQO were more or less weak, in particular homocatechol-AEBRP exhibited the inhibitory effect of about 48% in TA98, and homocatechol-AEBRP and hydroquinone-AEBRP showed inhibitory effects of about 46% to 58% in TA 100.

Near-ir spectra have been obtained for the $ν_3$+ Amide II combination thioacetamide(TA) band in CC$l_4$ and TA-DMP in CC$l_4$ in the range of 5 to 55${\circ}C$. Absorbance of the weak bands of the DMP and solvent has been compensated. The spectra are analyzed by the computer resolution into two Lorentzian-Gaussian product bands which have been identified with monomeric TA and 1 : 1 TA-DMP complex. Equilibrium constants and thermodynamic parameters for the hydrogen bonding between TA and DMP have been evaluated by the analysis of the concentration and temperature dependent spectra for the very dilute CC$l_4$ solutions. The $ΔH{\circ} and ΔS{\circ}$ of TA and DMT have been found to be -14.6 kJmo$l^{-1}$ and -16.2 Jmo$l^{-1}$ de$g^{-1}$.

Electrochemical characteristics of Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys coated with HA/TiN by using magnetron sputtering method were studied. The Ti-30Ta containing Zr(3, 7, 10 and 15wt%) were 10 times melted to improve chemical homogeneity by using a vacuum furnace and then homogenized for 24hrs at $1000^{\circ}C$. The specimens were cut and polished for corrosion test and coating, and then coated with HA/TiN, respectively, by using DC and RF-magnetron sputtering method. The analyses of coated surface and coated layer were carried out by using optical microscope(OM), field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometer(XRD). The electrochemical characteristics were examined using potentiodynamic (-1,500 mV~ + 2,000 mV) and A.C. impedance spectroscopy(100 kHz ~ 10 mHz) in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The microstructure of homogenized Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys showed needle-like structure. In case of homogenized Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys, a-peak was increased with increasing Zr content. The thickness of TiN and HA coated layer showed 400 nm and 100 nm, respectively. The corrosion resistance of HA/TiN-coated Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys were higher than that of the non-coated Ti-30TaxZr alloys, whic hindicate better protective effect. The polarization resistance($R_p$) value of HA/TiN coated Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys showed $8.40{\times}10^5{\Omega}cm^2$ which was higher than that of non-coated Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys.

Colored tantalum oxy-nitride (TaON) and tantalum nitride ($Ta_{3}N_{5}$) were synthesized by ammonolysis. Oxygen deficient tantalum oxides ($TaO_{1.7}$) were produced by a titration process, using a tantalum chloride ($TaCl_5$) precursor. The stirring speed and the amount of $NH_{4}OH$ were important factors for controling the crystallinity of tantalum oxides. The high crystallinity of tantalum oxides improved the degree of nitridation which was related to the color value. Synthesized powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and Colorimeter.

지난 30년 동안 플래시 메모리의 주류 역할을 하였던 부유 게이트 플래시 메모리는 40 nm 기술 노드 이하에서 셀간 간섭, 터널 산화막의 누설전류 등에 의한 오동작으로 기술적 한계를 맞게 되었다. 또한 기존의 비휘발성 메모리는 동작 시 높은 전압을 요구하므로 전력소비 측면에서도 취약한 단점이 있다. 그러나 이러한 문제점들을 기존의 Si기반의 소자기술이 아닌 새로운 재료나 공정을 통해서 해결하려는 연구가 최근 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히, 플래시 메모리의 중요한 구성요소의 하나인 터널 산화막은 메모리 소자의 크기가 줄어듦에 따라서 SiO2단층 구조로서는 7 nm 이하에서 stress induced leakage current (SILC), 직접 터널링 전류의 증가와 같은 많은 문제점들이 발생한다. 한편, 기존의 부유 게이트 타입의 메모리를 대신할 것으로 기대되는 전하 포획형 메모리는 쓰기/지우기 속도를 향상시킬 수 있으며 소자의 축소화에도 셀간 간섭이 일어나지 않으므로 부유 게이트 플래시 메모리를 대체할 수 있는 기술로 주목받고 있다. 특히, TBM (tunnel barrier engineered memory) 소자는 유전율이 큰 절연막을 적층하여 전계에 대한 터널 산화막의 민감도를 증가시키고, 적층된 물리적 두께의 증가에 의해 메모리의 데이터 유지 특성을 크게 개선시킬 수 있는 기술로 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Si3N4/Ta2O5를 적층시킨 staggered구조의 tunnel barrier를 제안하였고, Si기판 위에 tunnel layer로 Si3N4를 Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) 방법과 Ta2O5를 RF Sputtering 방법으로 각각 3/3 nm 증착한 후 e-beam evaporation을 이용하여 게이트 전극으로 Al을 150 nm 증착하여 MIS- capacitor구조의 메모리 소자를 제작하여 동작 특성을 평가하였다. 또한, Si3N4/Ta2O5 staggered tunnel barrier 형성 후의 후속 열처리에 따른 전기적 특성의 개선효과를 확인하였다.

This study was performed to determine the antimutagenic and cytotoxic effect of Aster scaber root ethanol extract on Salmonella typhymurium TA98, TA100 and cancer cell lines using Ames test and cytotoxicity assay, respectively. Cancer cell lines include chronic myelogenous leukemia(K562), human gastric carcinoma(KATOIII), human hepatocellular carcinoma(Hep3B) and human breast adenocarcinoma(MCF-7). Futher fractionations with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water from ethanol extract of Aster scaber root were performed to obtain effective fraction. Ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction showed 79% and 82% inhibitory effect on the mutagenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) against TA100, while 48% and 60% inhibition was observed on the mutagenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline-l-oxide(4NQO) against TA98. In the meanwhile, ethyl acetate fraction showed 78% and 85% inhibitory effect on the mutagenesis induced by benzo(${\alpha}$)pyrene[B(${\alpha}$)P] against TA98 and TA100, respectively, while 83% inhibition was observed on the mutagenesis induced by 3-amino-l,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido(4,3-b) indole(Trp-P-1) against TA98. Ethyl acetate fraction (0.125 mg/ml) showed the strongest cytotoxic effect against K562, KATOIII, Hep3B and MCF-7 at the same concentration compared to those of other fractions. Ethanol extract and water fraction showed the least inhibitory effect.

차세대 CMOS 공정에서 유전상수가 높은 게이트 절연막과 함께 게이트 전극이 관심을 끌고 있다. 게이트 전극은 전도도가 높아야 하고 p-MOS, n-MOS에 맞는 일함수를 가져야 하며 열적 특성이 안정해야 한다. 탄탈룸 계열 탄화물이나 질화물은 게이트 전극으로 관심을 끌고 있는 물질이며 이를 원자층 화학증착법으로 박막화 하는 공정이 관심을 끌고 있다. 원자층 화학공정에서는 전구체의 역할이 중요하며 이의 기상반응 메카니즘, 표면 반응 메카니즘을 제대로 이해해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 TBTDET (tert-butylimido tris-diethylamido tantalum) 전구체의 반응 메커니즘을 FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared)을 이용해 진단하였다. 또한 수소, 암모니아, 메탄을 이용한 열화학 원자층 증착, 플라즈마 원자층 증착 공정을 수행하여 박막을 얻고 이들의 특성을 평가하였다. 각 공정에 따라 반응 메커니즘이 달라지고 박막의 조성이 달라지며 또한 박막의 물성도 달라진다. 특히 박막에 형성되는 TaC, TaN, Ta3N5, Ta2O5 (증착 후 산소의 유입에 의해 형성됨) 등의 조성이 공정에 따라 달라지며 박막의 물성도 달라진다. 반응메카니즘의 연구를 통해 각 공정에서 어떠한 조성의 박막이 얻어지는 지를 규명하였고 박막의 밀도에 따라 산소유입량이 어떻게 달라지는 지를 규명하였다.

In this study, the light addressable potentiometric sensors (LAPS) with $Si_{3}N_{4}/SiO_{2}/Si$, and $Ta_{2}O_{5}/SiO_{2}/Si$ structures were fabricated. The penicillinsae was immobilized on the devices to hydrolyze the penicillin using self-assembled monolayer (SAM) method. Then response characteristics according to the penicillin concentrations were measured and compared. The measuring system was simplified by using LabVIEW. The pH response characteristics of fabricated devices are 56 mV/pH ($Si_{3}N_{4}$ sensing membrane) and 61 mV/pH ($Ta_{2}O_{5}$ sensing membrane). The sensitivity of sensor by enzyme reaction result of the enzyme reaction were 60 mV/decade and 74 mV/decade for $Si_{3}N_{4}/SiO_{2}/Si$ and $Ta_{2}O_{5}/SiO_{2}/Si$ structure, respectively, in the range of $0.1\;mM{\sim}10\;mM $of the penicillin concentration.
