In this paper we investigated the transcription of liquid crystal (LC) alignment method by using memory effect of nematic(N) LCon polymide(PI) surface with side chain as for non-rubbing alignment techniques. That the monodomain alignment of aligned NLC is observed by microscope textures in the cells on PI surface with side chain. We obtained that the pretilt angle of NLC are generated about 3.7$^{\circ}$on PI surface. We suggest that the LC alignment by using transcription alingnment method is attributed to memory effect of NLC on PI surface.

Purpose Though many information systems researchers have made various attempts to investigate the relationship between information technology capability and firm performance from diverse perspectives, we have not come to a conclusion yet with some mixed results. In this research, focusing on the adoption of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems by firms as a proxy measure for information technology capability, we reexamine whether the association is significantly positive. Design/methodology/approach Previous research on this topic had some limitations to the samples and analysis method. Some research focused only on the 1990s or early 2000s, and other studies failed to adequately compare the impact of ERP adoption on firm performance between the treatment group and the control group. In this research, extending previous analysis approaches with the matched sample comparison of IT leaders and the control group, we attempt to apply propensity score matching in combination with difference-in-difference analysis with a sample of Korean firms that adopted ERP systems in the late 2000s. We match ERP adopters and non-adopters with propensity score matching and compare their financial performance with difference-in-difference estimation between the pre- and post-adoption periods. Findings According to our analysis, we find no positive and significant relationship between ERP adoption and firm performance in profit ratios. This research shows that, contrary to the era of proprietary information systems, standardized information systems today have no additional competitive advantages over competitors.

Sporulation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has been regarded as an important model of cellular development and differentiation. S. pombe cells proliferate by mitosis and binary fission on growth medium. Deprivation of nutrients especially nitrogen sources, causes the cessation of mitosis and initiates sexual reproduction by matting between two sexually compatible cell types. Meiosis is then followed in a diploid cell in the absence of nitrogen source. DNA fragment complemented with the mutations of sporulation gene was isolated from the S. pombe gene library constructed in the vector, pDB 248' and designated as pDB(spo5)1. We futher analyzed six recombinant plasmids, pDB(spo5)2, pDB(spo5)3, pDB(spo5)4, pDB(spo5)5, pDB (spo5)6, pDB(spo5)7 and found each of these plasmids is able to rescue the spo5-2, spo5-3, spo5-4, spo5-5, spo5-6, spo5-7 mutations, respectively. Mapping of the integrated plasmid into the homologous site of the S. pombe chromosomes demonstrated that pDB(spo5)1, and pDB(spu5)Rl contained the spo5 gene. Transcripts of spo5 gene were analyzed by Northern hybridization. Two transcripts of 3.2 kb and 2.5kb were detected with 5kb Hind Ⅲ fragment containing a part of the spo5 gene as a probe. The small mRNA(2.5kb) appeared only when a wild-type strain was cultured in the absence of nitrogen source in which condition the large mRNA (3.2kb) was produced constitutively. Appearance of a 2.5kb spo5-mRNA depends upon the function of the meil, mei2 and mei3 genes.

Background: NF-$\kappa$B is a characteristic transcriptional factor whose functional activity is determined by post-translational modification of protein and subsequent change of subcellular localization. The involvement of the NF-$\kappa$B family of the transcription factors in the control of such vital cellular functions as immune response, acute phase reaction, replication of certain viruses and development and differentiation of cells has been clearly documented in many previous studies. Several recent observations have suggested that the NF-$\kappa$B might also be involved in the carcinogenesis of some hematological and solid tumors. Investigating the possibility that members of the NF-$\kappa$B family participate in the molecular control of malignant cell transformation could provide invaluable information on both molecular pathogenesis and cancer-related gene therapy. Method: To determine the expression patterns and functional roles of NF-$\kappa$B family transcription factors in human lung cancer cell lines NCI-H792, NCI-H709, NCI-H226 and NCI-H157 were analysed by western blot, using their respective antibodies. The nuclear and the cytoplasmic fraction of protein extract of these cell lines were subsequently obtained and NF-$\kappa$B expression in each fraction was again determined by western blot analysis. The type of NF-$\kappa$B complex present in the cells was determined by immunoprecipitation. To detect the binding ability of cell-line nuclear extracts to the KB consensus oligonucleotide, electrophoretic mobility shift assay(EMSA) was performed. Results: In the cultured human lung cancer cell lines tested, transcription factors of the NF-$\kappa$B family, namely the p50 and p65 subunit were expressed and localized in the nuclear fraction of the cellular extract by western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry. Immunoprecipitation assay showed that in the cell, the p50 and p65 subunits made NF-$\kappa$B complex. Finally it was shown by Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay(EMSA) that nuclear extracts of lung cancer cell lines are able to bind to NF-$\kappa$B consensus DNA sequences. Conclusion: These data suggest that in human lung cancer cell lines the NF-$\kappa$B p50/p65 complex might be activated. and strengthen the hypothesis that NF-$\kappa$B family transcription factors might be involved in the carcinogenesis of human lung cancer.

Recently, 『Gyeongja(庚子)/Daetongryeok(大統曆)』(1600), a memorandum record of Yu Seong-ryong during the reign of King Seonjo(宣祖) of the Joseon Dynasty, was returned to Korea from Japan, and about 4,000 letters in cursive characters have been interpreted by Ro Seung-suk. The contents for 203 days written in the margin of 『Gyeongja(庚子)/Daetongryeok(大統曆)』 are mostly new, and are meaningful in understanding Yu's life and social association circumstances. There are daily routines of each day, contemporary figures, diseases and oriental medicine prescriptions. In particular, the combat record of Admiral Yi Sun-shin in 83 letters on the cover is very important to understand the situation in those days. It seems that the reason for writing the combat situations a year and a few months after Admiral Yi died in war was to honor his distinguished military service for a long time by King Seonjo's order according to the public opinion of the royal court. The record can be classified into two categories. First, Admiral Yi sighed when he heard about Yu's dismissal from the office in Gogeumdo, and was always alert with clear water on the boat after the Battle of Waekyo Castle. Second, he was killed by bullets shot by the enemy while directly encouraging battle, not listening to his men who tried to dissuade him from leading the naval battle at Noryang. This only contained contents of devoting his life desperately, which is an important proof of the theory of his death in war. It also contains nine methods for making liquor and another method that wasn't known to the public, and seems to include popular alcohol brewing methods or newly devised ones. In addition, there is a detail that Heo Jun, the author of 『Donguibogam』, introduced medicine to Yu, along with being unable to attend ancestral rites and relieving the poor written in red. There are also stories about Kang Hang(姜沆) returning to Korea after being captured by Japan and Lee Deok-hong(李德弘)'s son, who introduced Gugapseondo(龜甲船圖, the first picture of the Turtle Ship in Korea) to King Seonjo. In the light of the above, 『Gyeongja(庚子)/Daetongryeok(大統曆)』is an important historical record to empirically research not only figures related to Yu but also the circumstances of those days since it contains new facts that are not in the existing literature. In particular, the big accomplishment of this study is to correct the mistakenly known theory of Admiral Yi's suicide and to find out the new fact that Heo Jun provided medical information. In this respect, this book is expected to serve as a testament to the future study of the history and characters related to Yu in the mid-Joseon period.

결정질 실리콘 태양전지의 효율을 향상시키기 위하여, 현재 가장 대표적으로 selective emitter가 적용되고 있다. 또한, 효율 향상을 위해 도금, 잉크젯 프린팅, 개선된 스크린 프린팅, 전사를 이용한 전극 형성 개선과 절연막을 이용한 surface passivation이 가장 활발하게 연구 되고 있다. 이외에도 연구되어지고 있는 반도체 기술의 이온주입, 플라즈마 도핑기술 등이 있다. 효율 향상과 관련된 기술들을 논할 것이며, 특히 원자층증착법(ALD)을 이용하여 surface passivation의 특성 향상과 양산 기술 적용 그에 따른 전극 형성 구조에 대하여 발표하고자 한다. ALD기술은 표면반응증착이기 때문에 실리콘 세정법에 따라 패시베이션 특성이 달라지게 된다. 세정법과 열처리에 따른 Al2O3박막의 물성변화, 계면의 반응에 따라서 전하 수명 값이 크게 좌우되는 것을 제시할 것이다.

CIGS 또는 CIS 태양전지는 높은 흡광계수와 조절가능한 밴드갭 특성으로 인해 높은 광전변환효율을 나타내므로 실리콘 태양전지를 대체할 차세대 태양전지로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 태양전지의 저가화를 위해서는 기존의 동시증발법 또는 스퍼터링을 대신할 수 있는 비진공 방식의 박막제조방법이 요구된다. 다양한 비진공 코팅방법 중에서 용액 또는 콜로이드 전구체를 프린팅하는 방법은 batch 조성이 박막의 조성으로 전사되므로, 전착법에 비해 조성 조절이 용이하다는 장점이 있다. 한편, 콜로이드 공정에 속하는 Cu-In 합금 나노 분말법은 셀렌화 또는 황화 과정 중에 부피가 팽창하는 장점을 활용 가능한 반면, 전구체 박막의 충진밀도가 낮을 경우 열처리를 통한 치밀화에 한계가 생길 수 있는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 합성한 Cu-In합금 분말을 이용하여 전구체 박막을 형성한 후 반응기구가 다른 황 및 셀레늄 분위기에서의 열처리를 통해 소결된 박막의 결정상, 미세구조 및 표면 형상의 차이를 비교하였다.

단백질체(Proteome)이란 말은 어원적으로 단백질(protein)에 전체란 뜻을 가진 어미(-body, -some)가 연결된 합성어로 주어진 순간에 세포나 조직이 발현하는 모든 단백질의 총체를 의미하고 이를 연구하는 학문은 Proteomics라 일컫는다. 2001년 2월 International Human Genome Project에 의해 human genome sequence가 밝혀짐으로써 유전체 연구는 일단락 완성되었지만, 염기서열만 가지고는 이 유전자 산물의 기능을 알 수 없었고, 이것이 전사되고 최종적으로 완벽한 모양이 갖추어진 단백질을 분석해야만 그 기능을 알 수 있었다.

붕화질소(hexagonal Boron Nitride, h-BN)위의 그래핀은 산화규소(SiO2) 위에 전사된 그래핀에 비해서 월등한 전기적 특성을 갖는다. 따라서 전자소자의 산업적 응용을 위한 대면적화를 위하여, 그래핀을 붕화질소위에 화학증기증착(CVD) 방법을 통해 직성장시키고, 그 전기적 성질이 산화규소 및 suspended된 그래핀에 비해서 훨씬 더 이상적임을 원자 수준의 공간해상도에서 초고진공 저온 주사형 터널링 현미경(scanning tunneling microscope, STM)을 통해 입증하였다.
