The stability of paraseodymium-based zinc oxide varistor consisting of Zn-Pr-Co-Cr-Y oxide was investigated according to yttria additives under different stress conditons, such as 0.8V\ulcorner\ulcorner/373K/12h and 0.85V\ulcorner\ulcorner/393K/12h. Wholly, all varistor after the stress showed nearly symmetric and stable I-V characteristics. Particularly, in the case of 2.0mol% and 4.0mol% yttria-added varistor showing a good I-V characteristics, the varation rate of varistor voltage were less 1% and that of nonlinear coefficient were about degree of 5%, and what is remarkable, leakage current with increasing stress time during the applied stress was almost constant. It the light of these facts, it is estimated that varistor constituents having 2.0mol% and 4.0mol% yittria, respectively, will be utilized to various application fields.

Novel $N_2O_2$ tetradentate ligands, H-3BPD and H-2BPD were synthesized. Hydrochloric acid salts of Br-3BPD, Cl-3BPD, Br-2BPD and Cl-2BPD having Br and Cl substituents at the $para$ position of the phenol hydroxyl group, were synthesized. The ligands were characterized by C. H. N atomic analysis, $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, UV-visible, and mass spectra. The proton dissociation constants ($logK_n{^H}$) of the phenol hydroxyl group and secondary amine of the synthesized $N_2O_2$ ligands were shown by four step wise values. The orders of the calculated overall proton dissociation constants ($log{\beta}_p$) were Br-3BPD < Cl-3BPD < H-3BPD in case of 3BPD and Br-2BPD < Cl-2BPD < H-2BPD in case of 2BPD respectively. The order agreed well with that of $para$ Hammett substituent constants(${\delta}_p$). The stability constants($logK_{ML}$) of the complexes between the synthesized ligands and transition metal(II) ions agreed with the order of $log{\beta}_p$ of the ligands. The order of the $logK_{ML}$ value of the each transition metal (II) ion was Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II) > Pb(II), which agreed well with that of Iriving-Williams series.

Streptococcus thermophilus 510 was investigated as n potential source of $\beta$-galactosidase. Optimum cultural conditions for maximum enzyme production were 0.5% loctose as carbon source, initial pH 7.0, 37 $^{\circ}C$, and 18 hours of cultivation. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation, protamine sulfate precipitation, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, and DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromntography. The purified enzyme exhibited an optimum pH at 1.0, and an optimum temperature of 5$0^{\circ}C$. Metal ions such as Mn$^{2+}$ and $K^+$, dithiothreitol, and 2-mercaptoethanol stimulated $\beta$-galactosidase activity. Ethylenediamine tetraacetic add, 8-hydroxyquinoline, Hg$^2+$, Zn$^{2+}$, Co$^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, and galactose were inhibitory. The $K_m$ and V$_{max}$ for o-nitrophenyl $\beta$-D-galactopyranoside were 1.25mM and 88.50$\mu$moles/min.mg protein, respectively. The molecular weight was estimated to be 520,000, and the amino acid composition indicated relatively high contents of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, and valine.

To investigate differences in Cd and Zn contents of paddy soils and rice plants polluted by the municipal and industrial waste water in the Mangyeong River Area, soil and plant samples were collected at several distances from the main inlet and at different depths of the soil. Soil samples were extracted with $4M-HNO_3$ and plant samples were digested with a mixture of $HNO_3$and $HClO_4$for analyzing heavy metals by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The contents of Cd and Zn in soils ranged from 0.38 to 1.17 and from 33.8 to 464.6mg kg^{-1}, respectively. The average Cd level in 1990 was less than that in 1982, but the Zn level in 1990 was higher than that in 1982 in general. No variation in Cd contents was observed in soils at the different distances from the source of waste water, but Zn contents in soils were lower with the increasing distances from the source of waste water. A significant correlation was observed among Cd content, OM, available silicate, CEC and $Ca^{++}$. Similar results existed among Zn content of 1982, OM and $Ca^{++}$. The Cd content in subsurface soils of 1992 was significantly correlated with Zn, Cu, and Pb in soils, and the Zn content in soils was significantly correlated with the Cu and Pb in soils, regardless of years. The Cd content in leaf blades of rice was more than seven times higher than that in brown rice. The Zn content in rice was higher than that in leaf blades and in panicle axis. The Cd content in panicle axis and the Zn content in all parts of rice were correlated with Zn, Cu and Pb contents in soils. The Cd and Zn contents in brown rice ranged from 0.10 to 0.90mg $kg^{-1}$ and from 4.2 to 95.9mg $kg^{-1}$ in the Mangyeong River Area, respectively.

Using models simulating the environment of two distinct adsorption sites of $H_2$ in metal-organic framework-5 (MOF-5), binding energies of $H_2$ to MOF-5 were evaluated at the MP2 and CCSD(T) level. For organic linker section modeled as dilithium 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate ($C_6H_4(COO)_2Li_2$), the MP2 and CCSD(T) basis set limit binding energies are estimated to be 5.1 and 4.4 kJ/mol, respectively. For metal oxide cluster section modeled as $Zn_4O(CO_2H)_6$, while the MP2 basis set limit binding energy estimate amounts to 5.4 kJ/mol, CCSD(T) correction to the MP2 results is shown to be insignificant with basis sets of small size. Substitution of benzene ring with pyrazine ring in the model for the organic linker section in MOF-5 is shown to decrease the $H_2$ binding energy noticeably at both the MP2 and CCSD(T) level, in contrast to the previous study based on DFT calculation results which manifested substantial increase of $H_2$ binding energies upon substitution of benzene ring with pyrazine ring in the similar model.

In and Ga doped ZnO (IGZO) films were deposited on 5 nm thick Cu film buffered Polycarbonate (PC) substrates with RF magnetron sputtering and then the effect of Cu buffer layer on the optical and electrical properties of the films was investigated. While IGZO single layer films show the electrical resistivity of $1.2{\times}10-1{\Omega}cm$, IGZO/Cu bi-layered films show a lower resistivity of $1.6{\times}10-3{\Omega}cm$. Although the optical transmittance of the films in a visible wave length range is deteriorated by Cu buffer layer, IGZO films with 5 nm thick Cu buffer layer show the higher figure of merit of $2.6{\times}10-4{\Omega}-1$ than that of the IGZO single layer films due to the enhanced opto-electrical performance of the IGZO/Cu bi-layered films.

In this Study, Mo back electrode were deposited as the functions of various working pressure, deposition time and plasma per-treatment on sodalime glass (SLG) for application to CIGS thin film solar cell using by DC sputtering method, and were analyzed Mo change to $MoSe_2$ layer through selenization processes. And finally Mo back electrode characteristics were evaluated as application to CIGS device after Al/AZO/ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/SLG fabrication. Mo films fabricated as a function of the working pressure from 1.3 to 4.9mTorr are that physical thickness changed to increase from 1.24 to 1.27 ${\mu}m$ and electrical characteristics of sheet resistance changed to increase from 0.195 to 0.242 ${\Omega}/sq$ as according to the higher working pressure. We could find out that Mo film have more dense in lower working pressure because positive Ar ions have higher energy in lower pressure when ions impact to Mo target, and have dominated (100) columnar structure without working pressure. Also Mo films fabricated as a function of the deposition time are that physical thickness changed to increase from 0.15 to 1.24 ${\mu}m$ and electrical characteristics of sheet resistance changed to decrease from 2.75 to 0.195 ${\Omega}/sq$ as according to the increasing of deposition time. This is reasonable because more thick metal film have better electrical characteristics. We investigated Mo change to $MoSe_2$ layer through selenization processes after Se/Mo/SLG fabrication as a function of the selenization time from 5 to 40 minutes. $MoSe_2$ thickness were changed to increase as according to the increasing of selenization time. We could find out that we have to control $MoSe_2$ thickness to get ohmic contact characteristics as controlling of proper selenization time. And we fabricated and evaluated CIGS thin film solar cell device as Al/AZO/ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/SLG structures depend on Mo thickness 1.2 ${\mu}m$ and 0.6 ${\mu}m$. The efficiency of CIGS device with 0.6 ${\mu}m$ Mo thickness is batter as 9.46% because Na ion of SLG can move to CIGS layer more faster through thin Mo layer. The adhesion characteristics of Mo back electrode on SLG were improved better as plasma pre-treatment on SLG substrate before Mo deposition. And we could expect better efficiency of CIGS thin film solar cell as controlling of Mo thickness and $MoSe_2$ thickness depend on Na effect and selenization time.

To investigate differences with the polluted sources on Cu contents in soils and paddy rices under water pollutions, soils with the distance, the surface(0-15㎝ depth) and subsurface(15-30㎝ depth) in 1982 and 1990, and rice plants at the soil sampling sites in 1990 were separately sample at Mangyeong River area under the influence of municipal and industrial waste water from Jeonju city. Soil samples were extracted with $4M-HNO_3$ and plant samples were digested with mixture of $HNO_3$ and $HClO_4$ for analyzing Cu, Cd, Zn, Pb by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Cu contents in soils ranged from 5.20 to 71.70 mg $kg^{-1}$. Average Cu level in 1990 was higher than that in 1982. Variation of Cu content with the distances from the source of waste water in 1990 was more regularly decreased than that in 1982. A significant correlation was observed between Cu contents in leaf sheath of rice plant and Cu, Zn and Pb contents in soils. Cu contents in soil was correlated with Zn and Pb in soil at area affected by waste water, regardless of years and soil depths. Cu contents in brown rice ranged from 0.4 to 10 mg $kg^{-1}$, and it was the lowest in parts of rice plant, and Cu content in panicle axis was 2.3 times higher than that in brown rice.

The Janggun Pb-Zn deposit has been known one of the four largest deposits (Yeonhwa, Shinyemi, Uljin) in South Korea. The geology of this deposit consists of Precambrian Weonnam formation, Yulri group, Paleozoic Jangsan formation, Dueumri formation, Janggum limestone formation, Dongsugok formation, Jaesan formation and Mesozoic Dongwhachi formation and Chungyang granite. This Pb-Zn deposit is hydrothermal replacement deposit in Paleozoic Janggum limestone formation. The wallrock alteration that is remarkably recognized with Pb-Zn mineralization at this deposit consists of mainly rhodochrositization and dolomitization with minor of pyritization, sericitization and chloritization. Wallrock alteration is divided into the five zones (Pb-Zn orebody -> rhodochrosite zone -> dolomite zone -> dolomitic limestone zone -> limestone or dolomitic marble) from orebody to wallrock. The white mica from wallrock alteration occurs as fine or medium aggregate associated with Ca-dolomite, Ferroan ankerite, sideroplesite, rutile, apatite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite, galena, quartz, chlorite and calcite. The structural formular of white mica from wallrock alteration is (K_0.77-0.62Na_0.03-0.00Ca_0.03-0.00Ba_0.00Sr_0.01)_0.82-0.64(Al_1.72-1.48Mg_0.48-0.20Fe_0.04-0.01Mn_0.03-0.00Ti_0.01-0.00Cr_{0.00As0.01-0.00}Co_0.03-0.00Zn_0.03-0.00Pb_0.05-0.00Ni_0.01-0.00)_2.07-1.92 (Si_3.43-3.33Al_0.67-0.57)_4.00O₁₀(OH_1.94-1.80F_0.20-0.06)_2.00. It indicated that white mica from wallrock alteration has less K, Na and Ca, and more Si than theoretical dioctahedral micas. The white micas from wallrock alteration of Janggun Pb-Zn deposit, Yeonhwa 1 Pb-Zn deposit and Baekjeon Au-Ag deposit, and limestone of Gumoonso area correspond to muscovite and phengite and white mica from wallrock alteration of Dunjeon Au-Ag deposit corresponds to muscovite. Compositional variations in white mica from wallrock alteration of these deposits and limeston of Gumoonso area are caused by mainly phengitic or Tschermark substitution mechanism (Janggun Pb-Zn deposit), mainly phengitic or Tschermark substitution and partly illitic substitution mechanism (Yeonhwa 1 Pb-Zn deposit, Dunjeon Au-Ag deposit and Baekjeon Au-Ag deposit), and mainly phengitic or Tschermark substitution and partly illitic substitution or Na⁺ <-> K⁺ substitution mechanism (Gumoonso area).
