A PVC membrane electrode based on upper-rim calix[4]crown as ionophore was prepared using dioctyl sebacate (DOS) as a plasticizer. The potential response of this membrane electrode to alkali, alkaline earth metal cations were examined. This membrane electrode exhibited a Nemstian response to $10^{-5}-10^{-1}M$ of CsCI with a slope of 52.3 mV/decade in Tris-buffer(pH 7.20). Its response time ($t_{90%}$) was 10s and it could be used for at least 2 months.

Tooth transposition is an anomaly of eruption characterized by the interchanged positions of two adjacent teeth, which is divided into complete and incomplete transposition. There are three common approaches for treating transposition: aligning the involved teeth in their transposed positions, moving them to their correct anatomic position in the arch and extracting one of the transposed teeth. Considerations in treatment plans are esthetic, function, risk of jeopardizing the roots and damaging the supporting structures, position of the root apex, developmental stages of teeth and expected compliance. The presented case reports described one maxillary canine-the first premolar transposition and two mandibular lateral incisor-canine transpositions. The former transposed teeth were arranged in their transposed position, and the latter transposed teeth were rearranged into their normal position.

Recently, a number of equipments related with electricity, electronics, and communication in the same building are needed to the grounding system for safety from unexpected accidents. When the faulted electric current flows into a certain grounding system, the potential rise in that system takes place and it might induce the potential rise to other grounding system. This potential interference was strongly affected by the surface potential, which was deeply related with the electrode shape. In this paper, the fundamental formula was deduced on the basis of surface potential of two grounding electrodes. Which corresponds to source of the potential interference and other grounding electrode, respectively. Therefore, the degree of potential interference in this mesh grounding electrode system was verified by the simple model simulation. In addition, in order to identify the difference between the grounding resistance in the realistic construction site and the expected value from the corresponding simulation, the experiment was performed with model on a reduced scale about the realistic grounding system. It consists of stainless steel hemisphere electrodes in a water tank. From this work, the grounding resistance in the mesh grounding electrode showed the good coincidence results between those. Consequently, it is confirmed that the grounding resistance in the mesh electrode is possible to be estimated by performing the experiment using the water tank model.

Purpose : To investigate the growth inhibitory effects, and the underlying mechanism of human colon cancer cell (HT-29) death, induced by a new synthetic bile acid derivative (HS-1200). Materials and Methods : Human colon cancer cells (HT-29), in exponential growth phase, were treated with various concentrations of a new synthetic bile acid derivative (HS-1200). The growth inhibitory effects on HT-29 cells were examined using a frypan blue exclusion assay. The extent of apoptosis was determined using agarose gel electrophoresis, TUNEL assays and Hoechst staining. The apoptotic cell death was also confirmed by Western blotting of PARP, caspase-3 and DNA fragmentation factor (DFF) analysis. To investigate the involvement of mitochondria, we employed immunofluorescent staining of cytochrome c and mitochondrial membrane potential analyses. Results : The dose required for the half maximal inhibition $(IC_{50})$ of the HT-29 cell growth was $100\~150\;{\mu}M$ of HS-1200. Several changes, associated with the apoptosis of the HT-29 cells, were reveal by the agarose gel eletrophoresis, TUNEL assays and Hoechst staining, following their treatment with $100\;{\mu}M$ of HS-1200. HS-1200 treatment also induced caspase-3, PARP and DFF degradations, and the western blotting showed the processed caspase-3 p20, PARP p85 and DFF p30 and p11 cleaved products. Mitochondrial events were also demonstrated. The cytochrome c staining indicated that cytochrome c had been released from the mitochondria in the HS-1200 treated cells. The mitochondrial membrane potential $(\Delta\Psi_m)$ was also prominently decreased in the HS-1200 treated cells. Conclusion : These findings suggest that the HS-1200 - induced apoptosis of human colon cancer cells (HT-29) is mediated via caspase and mitochondrial pathways.

Poly-o-toluidine (POT) was chemically and electrochemically synthesized for the study of the electronic and steric effect of methyl substituents. It was found that the steric effect was dominant in POT. The IP 4.95 eV, EA 3.24 eV, Eg 1.71 eV of POT were found by the CV (Cyclic Voltammetry) and CCPSA (Constant Current Potentiometric Stripping Analysis).

This paper presents a new robot motion planning method for moving obstacle avoidance. To consider the mobility of a moving obstacle, we define virtual distance function(VDF) between the robot and the obstacle. At each sampling time, we use the VDF to construct an artificial potential, considering the motion of obstacles. The robot moves according to the repulsive and attractive force vector induced by the artificial potential function. The proposed algorithm can be driven the robot to avoid moving obstacles in real time. Some simulation studies show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

본 연구에서는 Sb-Te 박막을 전기화학적 방법으로 전착하여 조성 및 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. $Sb_2Te_3$ 박막은 Sb(III):Te(IV) 농도비가 1:3, 인가된 전위값이 -0.15V vs. SCE 일 때 화학양론을 만족시켰다. 그러나 박막의 표면이 거칠고 균일성이 좋지 못하여 계면활성제 CTAB(cety1 trimethy1 ammonium bromide)를 첨가하여 도금용액의 조성비 및 도금전위를 제어하여 화학양론을 만족시키는 고품위 Sb-Te 박막을 제조하였다.

In order to analysis the degradation process of epoxy/glass fiber for outdoor condition, FRP laminate was exposed to high temperature and water. Then the degradation process was evaluated by comparing contact angle, surface potential decay, and surface resistivity. For the change of wettability, the contact angle of thermal-treated specimen with the high temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ increased. But that of water-treated specimen decreased. The characteristic of surface potential decay shows the tendency of the remarkable decrease on water-treated specimens, but increase on thermal-treated specimen compared with untreated one. Also, for the surface resistivity, it shows the same trend compared with the change of contact angle.

저밀도 플라즈마는 반도체 공정, 나노 신소재 분야 및 우주 항공 분야 등 여러 분야에 이용되며, 플라즈마 진단 및 분석을 통해 효과적인 플라즈마 제어가 가능하다. 특히, 전자 에너지 분포 함수(Electron Energy Distribution Function, EEDF)는 전자 온도, 플라즈마 밀도 및 플라즈마 전위 등의 플라즈마 변수를 측정하거나 전자 가열 매커니즘 등을 이해하는데 있어서 매우 중요하므로 정밀한 측정이 필요하다. 그러나 RF fluctuation에 의해 낮은 전자 에너지 부분에서 EEDF가 왜곡되어 측정된 데이터 및 분석의 신뢰도가 떨어지게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 RF fluctuation 보상을 위한 쵸크 필터가 사용되며, 쉬스 임피던스에 비해 쵸크필터의 임피던스가 클수록 보상 효과는 높아진다. 하지만 플라즈마의 밀도가 낮아지면 쉬스 확장에 의해 쉬스 임피던스가 증가하므로 쵸크 필터에 의한 보상만으로는 충분한 개선 효과를 얻기 힘들다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 효과적인 RF fluctuation 보상을 위해 임피던스가 높은 쵸크 필터를 설계하고 추가적으로 레퍼런스링에 전압을 걸어 쉬스의 임피던스를 줄이는 방법도 적용하였다. 유도결합방식으로 $10^{-8}cm^{-3}$ 대의 저밀도 아르곤플라즈마 방전시켰으며, 단일 랑뮤어 탐침법으로 EEDF를 측정한 결과 낮은 전자 에너지 부분의 왜곡이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

To analyze the phenomenon of drain induced barrier lowering(DIBL) for top and bottom gate oxide thickness of asymmetric double gate MOSFET, the deviation of threshold voltage is investigated for drain voltage to have an effect on barrier height. The asymmetric double gate MOSFET has the characteristic to be able to fabricate differently top and bottom gate oxide thickness. DIBL is, therefore, analyzed for the change of top and bottom gate oxide thickness in this study, using the analytical potential distribution derived from Poisson equation. As a results, DIBL is greatly influenced by top and bottom gate oxide thickness. DIBL is linearly decreased in case top and bottom gate oxide thickness become smaller. The relation of channel length and DIBL is nonlinear. Top gate oxide thickness more influenced on DIBL than bottom gate oxide thickness in the case of high doping concentration in channel.
