IB-AI-VIB2 및 IB-AI-VIB2 :Co2+ 결정을 고순도 원소를 출발 물질로 하고 iodine을 수송 매체로 사용하여 chemical transport reaction method로 성장시켰다. 성장된 결정의 결정구조는 chalcopyrite 구조였으며, energy gap은 direct band gap으로 3.514~1.814 eV 정도로 주어졌으며, cobalt를 불순물로 첨가할 때 energy gap은 감소하였다. IB-AI-VIB2 :Co2+ 결정에서 첨가된 cobalt가 모체결정의 Td symmetry site에 Co2+ ion으로 위치하여, Co2+ ion의 energy 준위 사이의 전자전이에 기인하는 불순물 광흡수 peaks가 나타났다. 이 불순물 광흡수 peaks에 결정장 이론을 적용하여 구산 1st-order spin-orbit coupling parameter(λ)는 -183~ -189cm-1정도였고, 2nd-order spin-orbit coupling parameter(P)는 225~239 cm-1정도였으며, crystal field parameter(Dq)는 328~395cm-1, Racah parameter(B)는 531~552cm-1정도였다.

The GC-rich discriminator sequence between the -10 region and the transcription start site of the rnpB promoter is responsible for stringent control of M1 RNA synthesis. The rnpB promoter also contains a G nucleotide at the previously identified transcription start site. In this study, we examined by mutagenesis of G to A whether this +1G nucleotide is involved in the stringent response. We found that the change did not alter the stringent response. Since the +1 mutation might alter transcription initiation, we compared the transcription start sites of the wt and mutant promoters by primer extension analysis. Surprisingly, we found that wild type rnpB transcription starts at both the +1G position (70%) and the -1C position (30%), and that the +1A mutation led to transcription initiation exclusively at the -1C position. We also generated two transversion mutations at the -1 position, both of which led to transcription starting exclusively at that position. The -1G mutant promoter gave a stringent signal similar to the wild-type, whereas the -1A mutant generated a significantly less stringent signal. Base on these results, we propose that a short sequence, up to 7 bp downstream of the -10 region, is involved in the stringent response of the rnpB promoter.

ZORA-DFT calculations of $^{11}$B EFG (electric field gradient) tensors for lithium borates, LiB$_3O_5$ (LBO) and Li$_2B_4O_7$ (LTB), were performed. The calculated values of 11B quadrupole coupling constant and asymmetry parameter are in good agreement with the experimental values. The sign of the quadrupole coupling constant for the tetrahedral boron site was deduced from the distortion from the ideal tetrahedral symmetry.

We demonstrate here a dynamic structure of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) as revealed by $^{13}$ C NMR studies on [3_$^{13}$ C]_,[1-$^{13}$ C]Ala- and/or Val-labeled wild type and a variety of site-directed mutants at ambient temperature. For this purpose, well-resolved (up to twelve) I$^{13}$ C NMR peaks were assigned with reference to the displacement of peaks due to the conformation-dependent I$^{13}$ C chemical shifts and reduced peak-intensities due to site-directed mutations. Revealed bR structure was not rigid as anticipated from 2D crystals of hexagonal array but a dynamically heterogeneous, undergoing a variety of local fluctuations depending upon specific site with frequency range of 10$^2$ -10$^{8}$ Hz. In particular, dynamics- dependent suppression of peaks turned out to be very sensitive to the motion of 10$^{-4}$ s and 10$^{-5}$ s interfered with frequency of magic angle spinning and proton decoupling, respectively. It is also noteworthy that such dynamic feature is strongly dependent upon the manner of 2D crystalline packing: $^{13}$ C NMR peaks of monomeric bR yielded either highly broadened or completely suppressed signals, depending upon the type of $^{13}$ C-labeled amino-acid residues.

The crystallographic properties and cationic distribution of $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ (M =Mn, Ni, Cu) and $Fe_3O_4$ thin films prepared by sol-gel method have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and conversion electron M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). The ionic valence, preferred site, and hyperfine field of Fe ions of the ferrites could be obtained by analyzing the CEMS spectra. The $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ films were found to maintain cubic spinel structure as in $Fe_3O_4$ with the lattice constant slightly decreased for Ni substitution and increased for Mn and Cu substitution from that of $Fe_3O_4$. Analyses on the CEMS data indicate that $Mn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ ions substitute octahedral $Fe^{2+}$ sites mostly, while $Cu^{2+}$ ions substitute both the octahedral and tetrahedral sites. The observed intensity ratio $A_B/A_A$ of the CEMS subspectra of the samples exhibited difference from the theoretical value. It is interpreted as due to the effect of the M substitution for A and B on the Debye temperature of the site. The relative line-broadening of the B-site CEMS subspectra can be explained by the dispersion of magnetic hyperfine fields due to random distribution of M cations in the B sites.

The Mossbauer spectra of the $Ni_{1-x}Cd_xFeAlO_4$ system were investigated with the Cd content x at room temperature. The spectra of the samples exhibit various patterns as follows 1) superparmagnetic relaxation for 0$\leq$x$\leq$0.2, 2) ferrimagnetic sextet for 0.3$\leq$x$\leq$0.5, 3) ferromagnetic relaxation for x=0.6, 0.7, 4) paramagnetic doublet for 0.8$\leq$x$\leq$1, with the Cd content x. In the samples with x values from 0 to 0.2, the substituted $Cd^{2+}$ ions transfer the $Al^{3+}$ ions from A-site to B-site mainly. The superparamagnetic relaxation effect and the ferromagnetic relaxation effect are derived from the $Al^{3+}$, $Cd^{2+}$ respectively. The magnetic structure of the $Ni_{1-x}Cd_xFeAlO_4$ system was explained by the Yafet-Kittel model.

The effect of cation substitution on the inonic conductivity was studied in $(Li_{0.5}La_{0.5})_{1-y}Sr_yTi_{1-x}Mn_xO_3$ system. In case of Sr substitution, the ionic conductivity abrubtly decreased over y=0.05. This may be caused by the decrease of lithium contents which contribute to lithium inonic conductivity. Jahn-Teller distortion as well as lattice parameter variation influenced the inonic conductivity in case of Mn substitution. A and B-site cations effects on the conductivities were found to be independent, and the ionic conductivity as high as $2.8{\times}10^{-2}$S/cm was obtained in x=0.0006 and y=0.05.

Carbon-based doping to MgB₂ superconductor is the simplest approach to enhance the critical current densities under magnetic fields. Carbon quantum dots is synthesized in this work as a carbon provider to MgB₂ superconductors. Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone is pyrolyzed and dispersed in dimethylfomamide solvent as a dopant to the mixture of Mg and B powders. Doped MgB₂ bulk samples clearly show the decrease of a-axis lattice constant, grain refinements, and broadening of FWHM of diffraction peaks compared to un-doped MgB₂ possibly due to the carbon substitution and/or boron vacancy at the boron site in MgB₂ lattice. Also, high-field J_c for the doped MgB₂ is enhanced significantly with the crossover about 3 T at 5 & 20 K when increasing the doping of carbon quantum dots.
