Errors of relative permittivity calculation caused by the variation of sample aspect ratio (diameter/height) and measuring geometry were analyzed by computer simulation and measurement. Firstly, the $S_{21}$ spectrum of the sample (permittivity 38) was simulated in the post resonator measuring apparatus by HFSS simulation. Then, the relative permittivity was calculated from the $TE_{011}$ mode resonant frequency. The relative permittivity varied by ca. 0.3% with sample aspect ratio variation (D/H=0.8~1.6). The relative permittivity varied by ca. 1~10% when the 1~10% of air-gap was introduced in between the dielectric disk and upper conductor. All the simulation results showed consistent tendency with real measurement.

Murine Neuro-2a (N2a) cells have been widely used for the investigation of neuronal differentiation, trophic interaction and neurotoxic effects of various compounds and their associated mechanisms. N2a cells have many genomic variations such as gains or losses in DNA copy number, similar to other neuroblastoma cells, and no systematic or high-resolution studies of their genome-wide chromosomal aberrations have been reported. Presently, we conducted a systematic genome-wide determination of chromosomal aberrations in N2a cells using a high-throughput, oligonucleotide array-based comparative genomic hybridization (oaCGH) technique. A hidden Markov Model was employed to assign each genomic oligonucleotide to a DNA copy number state: double loss, single loss, normal, gain, double gain and amplification. Unlike most neuroblastoma cells, Mycn amplification was not observed in N2a cells. In addition, these cells showed gain only in the neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (NF), while other neurotrophic factors such as glial line-derived NF and brain-derived NF presented normal copy numbers. Chromosomes 4, 8, 10, 11 and 15 displayed more than 1000 aberrational oligonucleotides, while chromosomes 3, 17, 18 and 19 displayed less than 20. The largest region of gain was located on chromosome 8 and its size was no less than 26.7 Mb (Chr8:8427841-35162415), while chromosome 4 had the longest region of single deletion, with a size of 15.1 Mb (Chr4:73265785-88374165).

Crystal structures of tungsten-bronze type microwave dielectric ceramics, $BaOLa_2O_34TiO_2$ (BLT) and $BaO(Nd_{0.77}Y_{0.23})_4TiO_2$ (B(NY)T), were analysed using the Rietveld method. The most relibale refinement was obtained by refining the cation and anion positions from the x-ray and neutron diffraction data, respectively. The ambiguites inherent in the refined crystal structure by Mateeva et al. were resolved. The $BaORe_2O_34TiO_2$ structure consiste of $3\times2$ perovskite blocks and 4 pentagon-channels. The Ti-O6 octahedrons are distroted and tilted, which, consequently, induces the displacements of Ba and Re ions producing the superlattics (c$\approx$ 7.6 $\AA$). The B(NY)T showed more severely tilted Ti-O6 octahedrons. The relative dielectric constant $\varepsilon_{\gamma}$ and temperature coefficient $\tau_\varepsilon$ are 109.5 and-$180 ppm/^{\circ}C$ in BLT, 76 and $+40 ppm/^{\circ}C$ in B(NY)T, respectively. The small Re ions produced a positive $\tau_\varepsilon$. The relation between $\tau_\varepsilon$ and the octahedron tilting in complex perovskite is discussed for the tungsten bronze type structure.

The random amplified ploymorphic DNAs (RAPD) assay is a simple and useful tool in identification of appropriate genetic markers, that requires no knowledge of target DNA sequence. RAPD products were generated directly from seaweed tissues, without prior nucleic acid extraction, of Porphyra yezoensis, Ulva pertusa and Undaria pinnatifida. The nuclear rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) fragment however was not amplified directly from the seaweed tissues. Using DNA extracted by the LiCl method, both the ITS and RAPD's have been amplified by the polymerase chain reaction. RAPD of P yezoensis, thallus (n) and conchocelis (2n) produced lots of different polymorphic bands (36-50$\%$) depending on the arbitrary primers used. Difference was also observed between direct tissues amplification and DNA extracts amplification (53-57$\%$). Thus it is important to use the same ploidy of tissue for DNA extraction and as a RAPD template.

지금까지 인간이나 다른 생물체의 전체 유전체 염기서열을 밝혀내는 작업은 크게 세가지 방법으로 진행되었다. Clone-by-clone approach, sequence tagged connector approach, random shotgun approach(1)가 그것인데 마지막의 random shotgun approach는 fragment assembly problem을 비롯한 여러 가지 전산학적인 문제들을 수반한다. 이 논문은 저자들의 국내 최초로 미생물체의 전체 염기서열을 random shotgun approach를 이용하여 밝혀낸 경험을 바탕으로 그에 따르는 문제인 fragment assembly problem에 대해 소개하고 그에 수반되는 몇 가지 전산학적인 문제와 몇 가지 해결책에 대해 설명하려 한다.

본 논문에서는 최근 국내·외적으로 활발하게 연구되고 있는 고분자 절연재료에 있어서 공간 전하가 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구로서, 기존에는 보고되지 않았던 새로운 측정시스템과 분석 방법을 제시하였다. 그리고, 이러한 측정시스템을 이용하여 교류전압 하에서 PD 발생시에 절연체 표면에 축적되는 공간전하의 직접적인 관측을 통하여 공간전하와 PD와의 연관성에 대한 규명을 실시하였다. 실험결과로부터 PD 패턴은 방전에 의해 절연체 내부보다는 표면에 축적되는 동적 공간전하와 매우 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 또한 PD 발생시 공기층 전압은 이러한 동적 공간전하에 의해 지배됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고, 일정전계 이상에서는 공간전하의 축적에 의한 영향으로 PD 크기와 공기층 전압은 더 이상 증가하지 않았다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험결과는 유전체장벽방전을 이용한 NOx, SOx 등의 공해물질의 분해에 있어서, 현재까지는 분해시스템에 전달되는 전력은 인가전압의 주파수와 크기에 비례하는 것으로 생각해 왔으나, 본 실험결과를 통하여 일정전계 이상에서는 전압상승에 의한 분해 효율의 향상을 기대하기 힘들다는 것을 나타낸다.

생물정보학 데이터를 분석하는 과정에서 서열 데이터의 시각화는 연구자에게 방대한 서열 데이터의 특성을 눈으로 쉽게 이해하기 위한 필수 과정이다. 대조 실험 데이터나 다중 서열 데이터를 시각화해 주는 많은 도구들이 있지만 방대한 유전체 서열에서 사용자가 원하는 다중 데이터간의 비교 영역을 찾아서 시각화해주는 기능이 부족한 것이 현 상황이다. 본 논문은 불리언 질의를 통해서 다중 전사체 서열을 효율적으로 비교하고 그 결과를 시각화해주는 방법을 제안한다.

High quality $Si_3N_4$ metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors were realized by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Titanium nitride (TiN) adapted as a diffusion barrier reduced the interfacial reaction between $Si_3N_4$ dielectric layer and aluminum metal electrode showing neither hillock nor observable precipitate along the interface. The capacitance and the current-voltage characteristics of the MIM capacitors showed that the minimum thickness of $Si_3N_4$ layer should be limited to 500 $\AA$ under the present process, below which most of the capacitors were electrically shorted resulting in the devastation of on-wafer yield. According to the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on the cross-sectional microstructure of the capacitors, the dielectric breakdown was caused by slit-like voids formed at the interface between TiN and $Si_3N_4$ layers when the thickness of $Si_3N_4$ layer was less than 500 $\AA$. Based on the calculation of thermally-induced residual stress, the formation of voids was understood from the mechanistic point of view.

The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize the laccase genes of Flammulina velutipes var. lupinicola. Five laccase genes (g1934, g1937, g2415, g2539, g5858) were selected based on the copper binding site and signal peptide analysis results using the laccase gene selected from the F. velutipes var. lupinicola genome. The size of the laccase genes of F. velutipes var. lupinicola were 1,488 bp~1,662 bp. As a result of cDNA sequence analysis, 14 to 17 introns were identified in the laccase genes. The cleavage site predicted as the signal peptide of the laccase gene was found to be located between 20 bp and 34 bp from the N-terminus. In addition, separation and purification were performed to characterize the F. velutipes var. lupinicola laccases, and the optimal activity of the separated and purified proteins were analyzed by pH, temperature and time. Five bands with laccase activity were found from zymogram analysis. The optimal pH of the reaction was 5.5, the optimal temperature was found to be 40℃. Therefore, characterization of the laccase genes identified in this study should help in better understanding the biomass decomposition of F. velutipes var. lupinicola.

캐패시터(capacitor)의 고주파(수십MHz) 전기장에서 유전손실(dielectric loss)에 의한 유리의 용융 및 합성에 관한 이론적 고찰이 수학적 모델에 의하여 이루어졌다. 유전 가열법에 있어서 캐패시터에 놓여진 유전체가 흡수하는 에너지는 용융인자(전압, 주파수)와 피시물(유리)의 전기, 물리적 성질[유전율(${\epsilon}$). power factor($tan{\delta}$)]에 의존한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 물성들의 온도 의존성뿐만 아니라 외부로의 열손실 등이 조사되었으며, 특성 분석을 통해 최적의 용융 모델을 설계하였다.
