Recent advances in NLO Borate Crystals for UV Generation are reviewed with the particular emphasis on the technique to improve the life time of UV optics. The laser-damage resistance of CLBO and fused silica surfaces was successfully improved after removing polishing compound by ion beam etching. The polishing compound embedded in the CLBO and fused silica surfaces were to a depth of less than 100nm. We were able to remove polishing compound without degrading the surface condition when the applied ion beam voltage was less than 200 V. The laser-induced surface damage threshold of CLBO was improved up to 15J/$\textrm{cm}^2$(wavelength: 355 nm, pulse width: 0.85 ns)as compared with that of the as-polished surface (11 J/$\textrm{cm}^2$). The laser-induced surface damage of fused silica also increased from 7.5J/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to 15J/$\textrm{cm}^2$. For the irradiation of a 266 nm high-intensity and high-repetition laser light, the surface lifetime of CLBO and fused silica could be more doubled compared with that of the as-polished surface.

Catalytic chemical vapor deposition (Cat-CVD) has been developed to deposit alumina(Al$_2$O$_3$) thin films on silicon (Si) crystal using N$_2$ bubbled tir-methyl aluminium [Al(CH$_3$)$_3$, TMA] and molecular oxygen (O$_2$) as source species and tungsten wires as a catalyzer. The catalyzer dissociated TMA at approximately 600$^{\circ}C$ The maximum deposition rate was 18 nm/min at a catalyzer temperature of 1000 and substrate temperature of 800$^{\circ}C$. Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) diodes were fabricated using gates composed of 32.5-nm-thick alumina film deposited as a substrate temperature of 400oC. The capacitance measurements resulted in a relatively dielectric constant of 7, 4, fixed charge density of 1.74*10e12/$\textrm{cm}^2$, small hysteresis voltage of 0.12V, and very few interface trapping charge. The leakage current was 5.01*10e-7 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a gate bias of 1V.

A reverse-phase HPLC method to determine DL-Carnitine Hydrochloride in pharmaceutical preparation is described. UV absorption derivatives of DL-Carnitine Hydrochloride were formed with p-Bromophenacyl Bromide in an essentially quantitative manner using crown ether as catalyst. The DL-Carnitine-bromophenacyl ester absorbed UV radiation strongly at 254nm, allowing the detection of as small a quantity as 12.5ng of DL-Carnitine Hydrochloride. A linear defection range was $5\;{\times}\;10-8 \;{\sim}\;5\;{\times}\;10-7M$ of DL-Carnitine Hydrochloride. And the linear regression at various drug concentration was =0.999 (n=10). The DL-Carnitine Hydrochloride in pharmaceutical preparation was successfully derivatized and separated from other constituents by reverse phase HPLC with detection at 254 nm.

Let k be an imaginary quadratic field, ${\eta}$ the complex upper half plane, and let ${\tau}{\in}{\eta}{\cap}k,\;q=e^{{\pi}{i}{\tau}}$. For n, t ${\in}{\mathbb{Z}}^+$ with $1{\leq}t{\leq}n-1$, set n=${\delta}{\cdot}2^{\iota}$(${\delta}$=2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 13, 15) with ${\iota}{\geq}0$ integer. Then we show that $q{\frac}{n}{12}-{\frac}{t}{2}+{\frac}{t^2}{2n}{\prod}_{m=1}^{\infty}(1-q^{nm-t})(1-q^{{nm}-(n-t)})$ are algebraic numbers.

To improve sensing capability of infrared, heat-resistance and mechanical properties, the $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ anti-reflective layers were coated on sapphire substrate by MOCVD. The standard wavelength was 4,600nm, and the thickness of anti-reflective layers were 379 and 758nm in case of ${\lambda}/4$ and ${\lambda}/2$ of incident angle($65^{\circ}$), respectively. The $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ anti-reflective layers were coated 12.6 and 9.7nm/min of deposition rates by increasing oxygen pressure to set the ideal refractive index of 1.283. In case of $SiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ coating, the transmittance increased from 55.0 to 62.7%. The transmittance of $TiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ anti-reflective layer also increased from 55.0 to 64.8%. The flexural strength of $SiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ and $TiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ layer coated sapphire increased from 337.8 to 362.9 and 371.8MPa, respectively. The flexural strength at $500^{\circ}C$ of these materials also increased respectively to 304.5, 358.2MPa from 265.9MPa. From these results, we confirmed these materials can be used as transmission window of infrared light.

A simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatographic method to quantitate ${\alpha}-keto$ acids in serum and urine was investigated. ${\alpha}-Keto$ acids react with 1,2-diamino-4,5-methylenedioxybenzene (DMB) in the presence of 2-mercapto-ethanol and sodium hydrogen sulfite to form highly fluorescent derivatives, substituted 6,7-methylenedioxyquinoxalinol. The derivatization procedure was performed in water bath at $100^{\circ}C$, and completed within 50 min. By the use of a reversed-phase column and multi-step gradient with two solvents, a mixture containing twelve of these derivatives were efficiently resolved within 35 minutes. The optimal wavelengh of the fluorescence detector are ${\lambda}_{ex}=364\;nm$ and ${\lambda}_{em}=445\;nm$. The quantitation of the individual ${\alpha}-Keto$ acids was reproducible with relative standard deviation of $3.0{\sim}7.9%$ and had a detection limits of $10{\sim}60$ fmol, except for p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid (960 fmol).

Novel fabrication method of nanobridge array of various materials was proposed using suspended silicon nanowire array as a sacrificial template structure. Nanobridges of various materials can be simply fabricated by direct deposition with thermal evaporation on the top of prefabricated suspended silicon nanobridge arrays, which are used as a sacrificial structure. Since silicon nanowire can be easily removed by selective dry etching, nanobridge arrays of an intended material are finally obtained. In this paper, metal nanobridges of Ti/Au, around 50-200 nm in thickness and width, 5-20 ${\mu}m$ in length were fabricated to prove the advantages of the proposed nanowire or nanobridge fabrication method. The nanobridges of Ti/Au after complete removal of sacrificial silicon nanowire template were well-established and bending of nanobridge caused by the tensile stress was observed after silicon removing. Up to 50 nm and 10 ${\mu}m$ of silicon nanowire in diameter and length respectively was also very useful for nanowire templates.

A spherical $Sr_4Al_{14}O_{25}:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor for use in white-light-emitting diodes was synthesized using a liquid-state reaction with two precipitation stages. For the formation of phosphor from a precursor, the calcination temperature was $1,100^{\circ}C$. The particle morphology of the phosphor was changed by controlling the processing conditions. The synthesized phosphor particles were spherical with a narrow size-distribution and had mono-dispersity. Upon excitation at 395 nm, the phosphor exhibited an emission band centered at 497 nm, corresponding to the $4f^65d{\rightarrow}4f^7$ electronic transitions of $Eu^{2+}$. The critical quenching-concentration of $Eu^{2+}$ in the synthesized $Sr_4Al_{14}O_{25}:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was 5 mol%. A phosphor-converted LED was fabricated by the combination of the optimized spherical phosphor and a near-UV 390 nm LED chip. When this pc-LED was operated under various forward-bias currents at room temperature, the pc-LED exhibited a bright blue-green emission band, and high color-stability against changes in input power. Accordingly, the prepared spherical phosphor appears to be an excellent candidate for white LED applications.

$SnO_2$ films were prepared at room temperature under a $(CH_3)_4Sn-H_2-O_2$ atmosphere in order to obtain transparent conductive polymer by using ECR-MOCVD (Electron Cyclotron resonance -Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) system. The electrical properties of the films were investigated as function of process parameters such as deposition time, microwave power, magnetic current power, magnet/showering/substrate distance and working pressure. An increase in microwave power and magnetic current power brought on $SnO_2$ film formation with low electric resistivity. On the other hand, the effects of process parameters described above on optical properties were insignificant in the range of our experimental scope. The transmittance and reflectance of the films prepared by the ECR-MOCVD exhibited their average values of 93-98% at wave length range of 380-780 nm and 0.1-0.5%, respectively. The grain size of the $SnO_2$ films that are also insensitive with the process parameters were in the range of 20-50 nm. On the basis of experimental data obtained in the present study, electrical resistivity of $7.5{\times}10^{-3}ohm{\cdot}cm$, transmittance of 93%, and reflectance of 0.2% can be taken as optimum values.

Optimal substrates and reaction conditions were studied to develop boiled or roasted meat flavor by Maillard reaction under a model system. Sugars for the reactions were xylose, ribose, glucose, lactose, maltose, and sucrose. Amino acids were cystine, cysteine, methionine, lysine, and glycine as the reaction substrates. The reacted solutions were measured their absorbances at 278 nm and 420 nm and were evaluated their sensory properties. Except cysteine, the pentose mixtures with all of the four amino acids showed a faster reaction rate than those mixtures with hexose or disaccharides. pH was decreased rapidly until 8 hours and then changed a little thereafter. Sensory evaluation showed that cystine-lactose or cystine-xylose from single substrate and cystine-lactose-maltose, and cystine-lactose-xylose from mixed substrates reacted at $100^{\circ}C$ for 16 or 20 hours were found to be close to boiled or roasted meat flavor. The volatile compounds from the four selected sugar-amino acid solutions by GC/MS were 8 hydrocarbons, 10 aldehydes, 6 ketones, 7 alcohols, 2 aromatics (benzene), 1 ester, 4 furans, 1 base and 5 sulfur compounds.
