광자 크리스탈의 밴드 구조가 다른 물질이 접하는 경계면으로 구성되는 이종 접합 구조(Heteorostructure)는 단일 구조에서 관찰할 수 없는 특성을 보유하고 있으므로 관심을 끌고 있다. 이를 이용한 다 파장 add-drop 필터, 2D-3D 하이브리드 구조에 의한 무 회절 손실 도파로, beam splitter와 combiner 등의 연구 결과가 최근에 제시되었다. 본 논문에서는 positive 굴절율과 negative 굴절율을 갖는 광자 크리스탈이 이종 접합 구조를 형성할 때의 굴절 작용의 변화를 실린더의 반지름 변화에 따라 고찰하였다.

The purpose of this study was to compare shear bonding strengths and debonding patterns of the ceramic brackets attached on the crystal which were grown on the enamel surface of a tooth with different concentrations of lithium sulphate-contained polyacrylic acid in different application times. Four kinds of concentrations of mixed solutions were made and applied to the enamel surface on extracted human premolars. The solutions were made by adding 0.3M or 0.6M of lithium sulfate to $50\%\;or\;65\%$ of polyacrylic acid with 0.3M sulfuric acid. The solutions were applied for 30 or 60 seconds. After bonding, a universal testing machine was used to measure the shear bond strength, and then observations were made of debonding patterns through the stereoscope. And the enamel surface was observed through the scanning electron microscope to examine the pattern of crystal growth and debonding. The results were as follows: 1. Shear bond strength in the enamel surface treated with $50\%$ polyacrylic acid was higher than that with $65\%$ polyacrylic acid. 2. There were no statistical differences in shear bond strength according to concentration of lithium sulfate and application time of solutions . 3. Enamel surface was almost free of resin debris after debonding. 4. Enamel surface treated with $50\%$ polyacrylic acid showed higher density of crystal growth than that with $65\%$ polyacrylic acid under scanning electron microscope.

In presence of a polymer, the crystallization of low MW organic materials can be stopped at an intermediary step, where mesocrystals can be identified. A mesocrystal is defined as a superstructure of nanoparticles having polymer-adsorbed crystal faces on the scale of several hundred nanometers to micrometers. This study examined the effects of water soluble polymers and relevant parameters on the formation of guanosine-5'-monophosphate mesocrystals. It was observed in OM and SEM that GMP obtained in a polymer solution had a unique particle morphology different from the typical one of GMP. XRD analysis indicated that the polymer-directed crystallized GMP had a different polymorph of GMP. This result shows that the crystal structure of GMP can be changed by polymers. It was observed in TGA analysis that the polymer-directed crystallized GMP had a different water content, indicating a different type of hydrate.

The effect of Mg supplement on the composting of swine manure and the formation of $MgNH_4PO_46H_2O$ (MAP) crystal during composting were examined. Mg source was added at a rate of 1.2 molar ratios to soluble phosphate ($PO_4$) level in swine manure. The temperature profiles and final compost qualities revealed that the Mg source addition didn't retard the decomposition of organic matters. As the added Mg reacted with $NH_4$ and $PO_4$ in manure, creating MAP crystal, the $NH_4$ level was reduced, and this was resulted in low nitrogen lose during the composting. The phosphate level was also decreased with the addition of Mg source, and hence the ratio of orthophosphate to total phosphate (OP/TP) in the final compost was lowered. Therefore, it was assured that supplement of Mg source into the composting materials could enhance the quality of compost by preserving nourishment and converting it into a slowly releasing fertilizer. X-Ray diffraction examination of the final compost showed that a distinct MAP crystal was formed during the composting, and the crystal mainly existed with the compost particle size less than 2.8 mm and over 2/3 of nourishment of the final compost was found in those particles.

The most common cause of blindness is cataract. The possible causes, radiation, sugar, drugs, trauma, nutrition, congenital, secondary to eye disease etc. Generally, the opacification of the lens are the result fa oxidation of the lens fibers. The basis for lens transparency is the structural integrity of lens fibers. Opacities were occur if there is a significant amount of high molecular weight protein aggregates. If Ca ions combined with lens ${\alpha}$-crystallin proteins, the lens fibers were aggregated by high molecular weight proteins and the lens were opacified. If Ca ions detached from lens ${\alpha}$-crystallin proteins, the lens fibers were aggregated by low molecular weight proteins and the lens were re-cleared. We need to find out the variety of factors can initiated the process of age-related cataract. And to understanding the mechanism how the various kind, of diabetic cataracts occur.

최근 고밀도 메모리 반도체의 재료와 빠른 응답을 요구하는 나노입자를 이용한 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 제작에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그에 따른 기존의 플래쉬 메모리가 가지는 문제점을 개선하기 위해서 균일하고 규칙적으로 분포하는 새로운 나노소재의 개발과 비휘발성, 고속 동작, 고집적도, 저전력 소자의 공정기술이 요구되고 있다. 또한 부유게이트에 축적되는 저장되는 전하량을 증가시키기 위한 새로운 소자구조 개발이 필요하다. 한편, 실리 사이드 계열의 나노입자는 금속 나노입자와 달리 현 실리콘 기반의 반도체 공정에서 장점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화합물 중에서 비휘발성 메모리 장치의 전기적 특성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 실리사이드 계열의 바나듐 실리사이드(V3Si) 박막을 열처리 과정을 통하여 수 nm 크기의 나노입자로 제작하였다. 소자의 제작은 p-Si기판에 실리콘산화막 터널층(5 nm 두께)을 건식 산화법으로 성장 후, 바나듐 실리사이드 금속박막을 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터 시스템을 이용하여 4~6 nm 두께로 터널 베리어 위에 증착하고, 그 위에 초고진공 마그네트론 스퍼터링을 이용하여 SiO2 컨트롤 산화막층 (20 nm)을 형성시켰다. 여기서 V3Si 나노입자 형성을 위해 급속 열처리법으로 질소 분위기에서 800$^{\circ}C$로 5초 동안 열처리하여 하였으며, 마지막으로 열 기화 시스템을 통하여 알루미늄 전극(직경 200 ${\mu}m$, 두께 200 nm)을 증착하여 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 구조는 금속 산화막 반도체구조를 가지는 나노 부유게이트 커패시터이며, 제작된 시편은 투사전자현미경을 이용하여 나노입자의 크기와 균일성을 확인했다. 소자의 전기적인 측정을 E4980A capacitor parameter analyzer와 Agilent 81104A pulse pattern generator system을 이용한 전기용량-전압 측정을 통해 전하저장 효과 및 메모리 동작 특성들을 분석하고, 열처리 조건에 따라 형성되는 V3Si 의 조성을 엑스선 광전자 분광법을 이용하여 확인하였다.

The emergence and dissemination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii isolates have been reported worldwide, with most of these possessing the ability to form biofilms. Biofilm formation is an important virulence factor associated with the resistance to disinfection and desiccation. This study examined the genetic basis of antimicrobial resistance mechanisms of biofilm-forming A. baumannii clinical isolates. Imaging and quantification of biofilms were performed by a crystal violet assay and 46 biofilm-forming A. baumannii isolates were selected. Subsequently, 16 isolates belonging to different clones were identified using REP-PCR, and detection of the antimicrobial determinants in the isolates was carried out. The 16 isolates included 9 non-MDR and 7 MDR isolates. The mean biomass $OD_{560}$ values of the non-MDR (0.96) and MDR (1.05) isolates differed but this difference was not significant. In this study, most biofilm-forming MDR A. baumannii isolates contained various antimicrobial resistance determinants ($bla_{OXA-23}$, armA, and mutations of gyrA and parC). On the other hand, most biofilm-forming non-MDR A. baumannii isolates did not contain antimicrobial resistance determinants. These results suggest that there is little correlation between the biofilm-forming ability and antimicrobial susceptibility in A. baumannii isolates. In addition, the emergence of MDR A. baumannii clinical isolates is generally caused by mutations of the genes associated with antimicrobial resistance and/or the acquisition of various antimicrobial resistance determinants.
