1차원 산화아연 나노구조물은 광대역 에너지 밴드갭(~3.3 eV)과 독특한 물리적 특성을 갖고 있어, 전계효과 트랜지스터(field effect transistor), 발광다이오드(light emitting diode), 자외선 광검출기 (ultraviolet photodetector) 및 태양전지(photovoltaic cell)에 널리 이용되고 있다. 특히, 1차원 산화아연 나노구조물은 직접천이형 에너지 밴드갭(direct bandgap)을 갖고 있으며, 빛으로부터 여기된 전자가 1차원 나노구조물을 통해 향상된 이동경로를 제공할 수 있어서 차세대 자외선 광검출기 응용에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 한편, 수열합성법(hydrothermal method)을 통해서 1차원 산화아연 나노구조물을 비교적 간단하고 저온공정을 통해서 합성할 수 있는데, 이를 광검출기 소자구조에 응용에서 양전극에 연결하기 위해서는 복잡하고 정교한 공정이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수열합성법을 통해 합성된 산화아연 나노로드가 포함된 에탄올 용액을 금(Au) 패턴에 drop-casting을 통해서 간단한 방법으로 metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) 광검출기를 제작하여 광반응 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 염료를 통해 가시광을 흡수하여 광전류(photocurrent)를 발생시킬 수 있도록 염료를 흡착한 산화아연 나노로드를 이용하여 같은 구조의 MSM 광검출기를 제작하여 가시광에 대한 광반응 특성을 관찰하였다.

Wrinkle formation and dryness are the most well-known symptoms of skin aging. This study investigated skin anti-aging and moisturizing effects of Mugunghwa (Hibiscus syriacus L.), the national flower of Korea. The effect of H. syriacus L. flower extract was examined in skin cells originating from humans in vitro and in hairless mice exposed to UVB in vivo. The in vivo study results showed that skin hydration-related factors such as involucrin, filaggrin, HAS1, HYAL1, and matrix metalloproteinase-I (a primary skin photoaging factor) were regulated by H. syriacus L. Additionally, epidermal thickness and collagen disruption, which resulted in wrinkle formation and skin dryness, were ameliorated by oral administration of H. syriacus L. These results indicate that H. syriacus L. flowers can play important roles in preventing aging and promoting skin moisturizing.

Optical current sensor and optical voltage sensor modules were designed and fabricated to improve measurement error and insulation in automatic power distributor By using Faraday effect, optical current sensor with an $\alpha$-iron core was designed and fabricated to minimize current induction of the other phase and was optimized to maintain linearity. Optical voltage sensor was fabricated owing to the pockets effect and adopted spatial electric field type because of small room in an automatic power distributor. To connect a distributor with an external terminal for signal processing, optical multi connector was designed, fabricated and tested for coupling loss and gas leakage. The linearity of optical current sensor for applied current maintains variation of smaller than 2.5% for applied current range from 20A to 700A. The linearity of optical voltage sensor was smaller than 1% for appling voltage from 6.6kV to 19.8kV. Since the measured characteristics are good, these devices can be considered as being applicable in practice.

The effects of a dielectric multilayer mirror on the efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were investigated by using optical simulation. Adoption of a dielectric mirror consisting of alternating SiN and $SiO_2$ layers narrowed the emission spectrum due to the microcavity effect, and increased the outcoupling efficiency by a few percent. The layer thicknesses of the dielectric mirror were adjusted to change the wavelength of the resonance mode, which may be used to increase the color purity.

Photodynamic therapy has been suggested as an alternative treatment to current cancer therapy which resulting in a variety of side effects because photodynamic therapy targets specific cancer cells and does not have a significant effect on normal cells. Typically, laser was used as a photodynamic therapy, but this was limited due to high cost and heat reaction. However, compact light emitting diodes that can emit light of various wavelengths have been developed at a low cost, which has a great influence on the low cost development of photodynamic therapy equipment. On the other hand, in the study of photodynamic therapy, the data on the direct effect of visible light are relatively small. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel cancer therapeutic module by developing a cancer cell proliferation inhibition module based on an Arduino that is relatively inexpensive, and able to use light of various wavelengths.

Soybean (Glycine max), as one of the foods with high plant proteins, contains a large amount of bioactive compounds and known to be effective in cardiovascular disease and obesity as well as in improving skin condition. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-photoaging effects of soybean fermented with Lactobacillus Rhamnosus ($Bio-Peptone^{(R)}$) by assessment of cytotoxicity against UVB, collagen synthesis after UVB-irradiation, tyrosinase activity, and melanin synthesis. Results showed that $Bio-Peptone^{(R)}$ protected skin fibroblasts against UVB-induced cytotoxicity and increased type I collagen synthesis. Furthermore, $Bio-Peptone^{(R)}$ significantly inhibited tyrosinase activity and reduced melanin contents. This study suggests that $Bio-Peptone^{(R)}$ has protective effects against UVB-induced skin damage. Thus, it is concluded that $Bio-Peptone^{(R)}$ is able to prevent skin damage against UVB and thus acts as anti-photoaging materials by protecting skin forming wrinkles and skin pigments.

인터넷의 발달로, 사이버 환경을 위한 C 프로그래밍 교육 컨텐츠가 많이 개발되고 있으나 적절한 실습 환경까지 제공되지 않고 있다. 그러나 프로그래밍 언어의 교육은 실습이 수반되지 않으면 그 효과가 상당히 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷상에서 효과적으로 사용할 수 있는 C 프로그래밍의 실습환경을 구축한다. 특히, 학생들이 이해하기 어려운 함수 프로그램의 실행과정을 Java Applet을 사용하여 시각화 보여준다. 함수 프로그램 실행 시각화기가 설계되고, Java 환경에서 구현된다.

Light qualities and three kinds of plant hormones, NAA, GA3 and BA were treated on maize seedlings to investigate the effect on formation of the chlorophyll-protein complexes. Each three kinds of plant hormones accelerated the chlorophyll proteins formation, particularly LHCP-1 and LHCP-3, but two kinds of hormonal combinations didn't promote these proteins accumulation under sun light condition. The formation of chlorophyll proteins of LHCP-1, CPA and LHCP-3 associated with PSII was promoted under red light compared to sun light, on the contrary the formation of chlorophyll proteins was not affected by white light. Plant hormones under red light induced chlorophyll proteins formation associated with PSII at early state of chloroplast development and two kinds of hormonal combinations under red light were very effective in accumulation of chlorophyll proteins of PSII in contrast to sun light. The results obtained suggest that light may play an important role compared to plant hormones in the formation of chlorophyll proteins.

Photodynamic therapy(PDT) has advanced to clinical trials for the treatment of a variety of solid tumors and presents an alternative treatment option for tumors resistant to chemo-and/or radio-therapy. PDT is based on the combination of laser light of appropriate wavelength and energy to activate a systemically or locally applied photosensitizer that concentrates preferentially in malignant tissues. In this study, phototoxicity of laser EIT 21 was analysed in human osteosarcoma cell(HOS) and the second objective of this study was to determine the ability of laser EIT 21 to induce apoptosis. This study demonstrated that laser EIT 21 had a phototoxicity to HOS cells. In order to examinate whether cell death was induced by necrosis or apoptosis, variety of techniques which assess apoptosis were used. TUNEL assay showed only a few the positive reaction on condensed nuclei. It is hard to find condensed or fragmented nuclei on HOS cells irradiated with laser EIT 21 in Hemastat and AO/EB stain. By DNA electrophoresis, cells also did not show DNA degradation characteristic of apoptosis with a ladder pattern of DNA fragments. Apoptosis-related factors were analyzed by western blotting. The expression of p53 was constant and cells irradiated with laser did not show the caspase-3 and PARP degradation, therefore we suggest that p53 and caspase-3 are not involved in laserinduced cell death.

The effect of the trap equipped with diverse light-emitting lamp on the lure efficiency of whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum) was investigated in the greenhouse cultivating tomato. The light-emitting lamp type equipped to trap was blue, yellow, and white light-emitting lamp. The experiment results showed that trap equipped with blue light-emitting lamp captured the most number of $110{\pm}3.2$ adult whitefly and the number of captured adult whitefly was $71{\pm}1.4$ at yellow light-emitting lamp trap and $45{\pm}1$ at white light-emitting lamp trap respectively. The wavelength distribution band of blue light-emitting lamp was between 330 nm and 430 nm. The wavelength band of yellow and white light-emitting lamp contain repellent wavelength band at the same time. These results show that the trap equipped with blue light-emitting lamp could be used effectively for whitefly control and prevention in the greenhouse cultivating tomato.
