염료감응 태양전지를 구성하는 중요한 요소 중 하나인 나노입자 산화물 $TiO_2$는 태양전지 내부의 전자이동과 밀접한 관련이 있어 Cell의 개방전압(Voc) 및 단락전류밀도(Jsc) 특성을 결정짓는 주요 요소이다. 때문에 염료감응 태양전지의 문제점인 효율 증대를 위해서는 $TiO_2$의 각종 특성을 연구할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 $TiO_2$의 두께 및 소성온도를 변화시킴에 따라 제반 되는 각종 전기적 특성들을 조사해 보았고 그 원인들을 고찰해 보았다.

We prepared temperature-sensitive polyurethane and its water permeation characteristics for possible uses as drug delivery systems. Mechanical properties and Tg of polyurethane depend on the molecular weight of polyol and the amount of hard segment. We confirmed the increase of permeability with temperature. This fact indicates the future use of the present material in drug delivery systems.

Water purification requires a large amount of energy that can cause pollution problems. For this reason, forward osmosis (FO) has attracted intense interest that required a relatively low amount of energy for water purification. The forward osmosis has a serious problem that it needs drawing agents creating osmotic pressure to extract water from contaminated water. In this study, a copolymer of zwitterionic moiety and an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogel based on thermo-responsive polymer hydrogel, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) were prepared and attached on FO membranes, which successfully played the role of drawing agents. In the copolymer hydrogel, its swelling ratio was improved, but thermo-sensitivity was decreased. The swelling ratio and thermo-sensitivity of IPN hydrogel was lowered. We could confirm that swelling ratio is related to osmotic pressure.

Stimuli-responsive polymers have been investigated as the materials playing the critical roles in various applications. Thermoresponsive graft copolymers, poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-g-hyaluronic acid (PNIPAAm-g-HA) and elastin-like peptide-g-hyaluronic acid (ELP-g-HA), were synthesized by coupling carboxylic polymers (PNIPAAm-COOH or ELP) to biocompatible HA through amide linkages. Thermoresponsive behavior was observed in both the copolymers, and the results of turbidity measurement were consistent with the results of rheological examination. Among the two copolymers, the ELP graft copolymer shows less cooperative LCST transition than the PNIPAAm case. As the content of graft chains of PNIPAAm and ELP increases, viscosity increases, and the increase was larger in PNIPAAm case at a graft content. These results shows us that the introduction of grafts provides thermosensitivity to biocompatible HA, whose characteristics can be engineered.

A lever type CO micro gas sensor was fabricated by MEMS technology. In order to heat up the gas sensing material, $SnO_2$, to a target temperature, a micro heater was built on the gas sensor. The heater and electrodes were hanged on the air as a bridge type to minimize the heat loss to the silicon base. The sensing material laid on the heater and electrodes and did not contact with the silicons base. The temperature distribution of micro gas sensor was analyzed by a CFD program, FLUENT. The results showed that the temperature of silicon wafer base was almost similar to that of the room temperature, which indicates that the heat generated at the micro heater heated up effectively the sensing material. The required electric current of micro heater to heat up the sensing material to the target temperature could be predicted.

The adhesion of tissue and organ occur with frequency after surgery. Theomosensitive hydrogel was prepared from poloxamer/chitosan/epidermal growth factor as adhesion barrier agent. The prepared hydrogel showed sol-gel transition temperatures around human temperature and gelation temperature was the faster within 1 min. The hydrogel sustained the release of epidermal grow factor during 7 days. The hydrogel was highly effective for the prevention of tissue and organ adhesion in rat model. The thermosensitive and antibacterial chitosan hydrogel can be useful to consider the anti-adhesion barrier with increased adhesion of organ and sustained release of epidermal growth factor.

마이크로파 에너지로서 현미경 관찰을 위한 생체물질을 고정할 때, 고정효과는 화학 고정액을 사용할 때와 비교하여 보다 우수한 또는 적어도 동일한 고정효과를 볼 수 있다는 것은 알려진 사실이다. 그러나 기존의 마이크로파 오븐을 사용하여 생체물질을 고정하면 고정 정도에 일정성이 없는데, 이는 마이크로파가 균일하게 조사되지 않고 고정에 적절하도록 마이크로팍의 강도를 조절하기 어려우며, 이로 인하여 정확한 고정온도의 측정이 불가능하기 때문으로 생각된다. 이 연구에서는 마이크로파가 조사되는 동안 시료의 온도를 측정할 수 없는 기존의 마이크연.파 오븐의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 비접촉식 적외선 온도 감응기를 장착한 마이크로파 오븐을 개발하였으며 고정효과를 관찰하기 위하여는 포유류의 기준 조직으로 알려진 생쥐의 신장을 고정하였다 고정효과는 전체적인 구조와 세부 구조의 보존이 모두 우수하였고 최적의 고정온도는 28$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$(완충용액 20 ml, 10초) 이었다. 이와같이 고정된 재료는 고정효과 뿐만 아니라 염색성이 좋아서 조직화학 반응이 우수하고, 냉동절편법과 연계했을 때 전체 절편제작 과정이 2~4시간 내에 완료될 수 있었다 이때 절편의 질(질)은 화학 고정액이나 냉동절편 법에 의하여 제작된 것 보다 우수하였다.

In this paper, a single house fire alarm device, which can solve the problem of fire perception at midnight time and the attenuation of alarm signal due to the wall between rooms based on the wireless communication, was developed. The radio controlled fire alarm device was designed to allow fire to be recognized quickly and accurately by monitoring the temperature and $CO_2$ concentration based on the temperature sensor and gas sensor, by detecting the fire in the house and by transmitting the fire alarm to the individual wireless alarms of other rooms using the wireless transmission/reception module. Using the Arduino as a main control device, three independent fire alarm device prototypes were made, and their usefulness was verified by the correct operations in temperature and gas tests.

The objective of this study is to propose two empirical correlations to predict the mass flow rate through an automotive block type thermostatic expansion valve and then to evaluate the correlations. The first correlation is deduced by modifying the basic equation of the orifice meter for the mass flow rate and the second correlation is deduced by using the Buckingham's ${\pi}$ theorem. The first correlation showed very good agreement on the measured data for R134a, given by Monforte. Average relative deviation and standard deviation of it are 2.5% and 1.6%, respectively. The second correlation agreed on the same measured data with a little greater deviations. The two correlations may apply to common expansion valves which have different geometrical sizes of the same shape.
