Modifying surface of activated carbon for the electrode of EDLC with an organic electrolyte was investigated to improve the electrochemical performance of EDLC by the microwave radiation. Three kinds of activated carbons, prepared activated carbon from petroleum cokes and pitch cokes and commercial activated carbon BP-25, were used for this study. For all investigated activated carbons, hydrophilic functional groups-containing oxygen disappeared from the surface of activated carbon as microwave radiation. And as microwave radiation time was increased, the specific surface area and total pore volume of activated carbons were reduced and average pore diameter were increased. From theses effects, interfacial resistance of EDLC with the modified activated carbon electrode was drastically decreased, and discharge capacitance was increased although the specific surface area of activated carbon was reduced by this microwave radiation.

Surface photovoltage spectroscopy was used to study $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P/GaAs$ grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD). Energy gap related transition in GaAs and $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P$ were observed. By measuring the frequency dependence of $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P/GaAs$, we observed that SPV line shape does not chance, whereas the amplitude change. This results is due to the difference in the lifetimes of the photocarriers in GaAs and in $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P$. We also have evaluated the parameters that describe the temperature dependences of the band gap.

The influence of triglyceride molecular species on autoxidation was investigated by determining the residual molecular species after incubating soybean oil triglycerides. The molecular species of soybean oil triglycerides were analyzed by capillary column gas chromatography and electron impact ionization mass spectrometry utilizing selected ion monitoring. The autoxidative stability of each molecular species in soybean oil triglycerides appeared to decrease in proportion to the increase in the number of double bonds present in the acyl residues, and it was affected by degree of unsaturation of fatty acid when the number of double bonds in triglyceride were the same. And it appeared to be enhanced by a decreases in the length of the saturated acyl chain present in the glycerides.

In this paper, the uniaxial, triaxial compression tests and consolidation tests on the clay sample substituted initial pore water for pollutant were performed to evaluate the change in geotechnical properties of the contaminated clay. The contaminant transport analysis on embankment type landfill using the MT3D model was also performed to evaluate the extent of transport and diffusion. There was tendency that strength, compressibility and permeability has increased with the increase in the concentration of NaCl solution. The increase in the strength and compressibility of sample saturated with leachate was higher than samples saturated with NaCl solution, but in the permeability coefficient was lower. As the result of contaminant transport analysis, the predicted concentration was in high with the increase in the initial concentration of $Cl^-$ ion and increased in a non-linear form. The transportation distance calculated with use of regression equation between the distance from contaminant source and the concentration of $Cl^-$ ion was increased with the increase in the initial concentration.

Backscattered electrons (BSE) are generated at the impact of the primary electron beam on the specimen. BSE imaging provides the compositional contrast to resolve chemical features of sectioned block-face. A focused ion beam (FIB) column can be combined with a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) to ensure a dual (or cross)-beam system (FIB-FESEM). Due to the milling of the specimen material by 10 to 100 nm with the gallium ion beam, FIB-FESEM allows the serial block-face (SBF) imaging of plastic-embedded specimens with high z-axis resolution. After contrast inversion, BSE images are similar to transmitted electron images by transmission electron microscopy. As another means of SBF imaging, a specialized ultramirotome has been incorporated into the specimen chamber of FESEM ($3View^{(R)}$). Internal structures of plastic-embedded specimens can be serially revealed and analyzed by $3View^{(R)}$ with a large field of view to facilitate three-dimensional reconstruction. These two SBF approaches by FESEM can be employed to unravel spatial association of (sub)cellular entities for a comprehensive understanding of complex biological systems.

The antiferromagnet IrMn based four different GMR-SV multilayers on Corning glass were prepared by using ion beam deposition and DC magnetron sputtering system. The magnetoresistance (MR) properties for single-type and dual-type GMR-SV multilayer films were investigated through the measured major and minor MR curves. The exchange bias coupling field ($H_{ex}$) and coercivity ($H_c$) of pinned layer, the $H_c$ and interlayer exchange coupling field ($H_{int}$) of free layer for the dual-type structure GMR-SV multilayer films consisted of top IrMn layer were 410 Oe, 60 Oe, 1.6 Oe, and 7.0 Oe, respectively. The minor MR curve of two free layers was performed the squarelike feature having a MR ratio of 8.7 % as the sum of 3.7 % and 5.0 %. The value of average magnetic field sensitivity (MS) was maintained at 2.0 %/Oe. Also, the magnetoresistance properties of the single-type and dual-type structure GMR-SV multilayer films consisted of bottom IrMn layer were decreased more than those of top IrMn layer. Two antiparallel states of magnetization spin arrays of the pinned and free layers in the dual-type GMR-SV multilayer films occurred the maximum MR value by the effect of spin dependence scattering.

Changes in antimicrobial peptide-lipid mixtures were investigated using ³¹P solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. An antimicrobial peptide, protegrin-1, and phosphatidylcholine were deposited on a thin cover glass and incubated under a relative humidity of 95%. The changes in the mixtures were observed after hydration or air-drying. How repetitive hydration and drying changed the phase of the sample was also observed. The degrees of disruption of the well-aligned bilayers of phosphatidylcholine were determined quantitatively by simulating the experimental spectra. The peptide-lipid mixtures changed reversibly after hydration and drying, and the samples reached an equilibrium state after several repetitions.

본 연구는 충청북도 충주시 동량면과 금가면에 위치하고 있는 대전천을 대상으로 하상토 입경, 수위-유량의 변화에 따른 유사량 특성을 분석하였다. 하상재료 조사는 매 0.5 km 마다 17개 지점의 시료를 채취하였으며, 현장에서 채취한 하상토는 흙의 입도분포(KSF2302)시험법에 따라서 입경분석을 하였다. 측정 지점은 흐름이 안정적이며, 와류, 사수, 역류가 없고 접근이 용이하며 하상변동이 적은 지점을 고려하여 선정하였고, 유사의 이동이 활발한 시기인 7월에서 9월까지 평 저수기 20회, 홍수기 24회, 총 44회에 걸쳐 유량 및 부유사량을 현장 관측하였다. 평 저수시의 유속측정을 위해 초음파유속계를 사용하였으며, 홍수시에는 표면 부자를 사용하였다. 유량계산시에 면적은 중간단면법을 사용하여 유량을 계산하였다. 유량측정과 동시에 부유사 시료를 채취하였으며 부유사 관측에는 수심적분 채취접을 적용, 부유사농도는 여과법을 시행하였다. 본 하천의 현장실험 측정성과와 수리특성을 기초자료로 하여 각 회차에 걸친 총유사량의 산정을 SCST(Solution for Computing Sediment Transport)를 사용하였으며, 총유사량을 산정하는 Einstein공식, van Rijn공식, Toffaleti공식, Shen&Hung공식, Yang(1979)공식, Ackers & White공식, Engelud&Hansen공식, Ranga Raju공식 등 10개 공식을 적용하여 비교 분석을 수행하였다. 이중에서 관측된 부유사량을 고려하여 검토한 결과 Yang(1979)공식을 이용하여 추정한 총유사량이 가장 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 그 결과 수위-유량관계곡선 및 유량-총유사량 관계곡선을 개발하였으며, 효과적인 치수 및 이수계획의 수립 등 수자원 기본자료로서 이용될 것이다.

VA-mycorrhizal spores were collected from the 14 citurs orchards of different soil textures and locations in Cheju island. Five species and two kinds of spores were identified as based on the morphological characteristics of the spores; Acaulospora bireticulata, Glomus deserticola, G. geosporum, G. vesiculiferum, and Sclerocystis pachycaulis. Additionally, two kind spores of Acaulospora were also observed but difficult to be identified in this moment. Glomus deserticola and unidentified spores of Acaulospora (brown spores sized 90 to $125\;{\mu}m$ in diameter) were most frequently observed in the all soil specimens in Cheju, while the other kinds of spores were rarely observed in the soil of Cheju.

Indium aluminum arsenide(InAlAs) was grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (001) indium phosphide (InP) substrate and the effects of growth temperature on the properties of epitaxial layers were studied. In the temperature range of 370-$400 ^{\circ}C$, we observed that the surface morphology, optical quality and structural quality of InAlAs epilayers were improved as growth temperature increased. However, the InAlAs epilavers grown at $430 ^{\circ}C$ have the bad surface morphology and show the same trends as structural and epical quality. As a result of these measurements, it is suggested that the InAlAs epilayers of very good properties can be grown at $400 ^{\circ}C$.
