본 연구는 VEGF로 유발된 랫드 각막 미세낭 모델에서 As₄O/sub 6/와 As₂O₃ 혈관신생 억제효과를 비교하기 위해 실시하였다. 20ng VEGF가 함유된 펠렛을 이식하여 혈관신생을 유도하였다. 안과 검사후 정상적인 각막을 가진 Sprague-Dawley 랫드의 안구 60안을 이용하여 각 20안씩 무작위로 선정하여 대조군(비투약군), As₂O₃군(50mg/kg As₂O₃, 경구투여, 1일 1회), 그리고 As₄O/sub 6/군(50mg/kg As₄O/sub 6/, 경구투여, 1일 1회)으로 나누어 실시하였다. 이식이 완료된 후, 신생혈관의 개수, 길이 및 신생혈관의 각도를 미세수술현미경하에서 이식 3일째부터 9일째까지 매일 검사하였다. 신생혈관의 넓이는 신생혈관의 길이와 각도를 수학적인 공식에 적용하여 계산하였다. 실험 기간동안 As₄O/sub 6/군의 신생혈관 개수, 길이, 각도 및 넓이가 대조군과 As₂O₃군에 비하여 유의성 있게 억압되었다. (P<0.05). 이러한 결과 As₄O/sub 6/는 랫드 각막에서 VEGF에 의해 유도된 신생혈관에 As₂O₃보다 더 뛰어난 억제효과를 가지고 있음을 보여주었다.

Unsaturated $Cr(CO)_x(1{\leq}x{\leq}5)$molecules were generated in the gas phase from photolysis of $Cr(CO)_6$vapor in He using an unfocussed weak UV laser pulse and their reactions with $O_2$ and $N_2O$ have been studied. The formation and disappearance of the ground state CrO molecules were identified by monitoring laser-induced fluorescence(LIF) intensities vs delay time between the photolysis and probe pulses. The photolysis laser power dependence as well as the delay time dependence of LIF intensities from the CrO orange system showed different behavior as those from ground state Cr atoms, suggesting that the ground state CrO molecules were generated from the reaction between $O_2/N_2O$ and photo-fragments of $Cr(CO)_6$ by one photon absorption. The depletion rate constants for the ground state CrO by $O_2$ and $N_2O$ are $5.4{\pm}0.2{\times}10^{-11}$ and $6.5{\pm}0.4{\times}10^{-12}cm^3molecule^{-1}s^{-1}$, respectively.

Mineralogical and geochemical studies of shales within the Lower Anambra Basin was conducted to unravel the depositional environment, provenance, maturity, paleo-weathering conditions, and tectonic settings. Mineralogical studies conducted using X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the samples were composed of kaolinite, montmorillonite, chlorite, and illite. KaolinIite is the dominant mineral, constituting approximately 41.5% of the bulk composition, whereas the non-clay minerals are quartz, ilmenite, and sillimanite. Geochemical analysis showed a predominance of SiO₂, Al₂O₃, and Fe₂O₃ contents of the shale samples with mean values of 52.29%, 14.09%, and 6.15% for Imo Shale (IS); 52.31%, 16.70%, and 7.39% for Mamu Shale (MS); 43.21%, 21.33%, and 10.36% for Enugu Shale (ES); 53.35%, 15.64%, and 7.17% for Nkporo Shale (NS); and 51.24%, 17.25%, and 7.78% for Agwu Shale (AS). However, the shales were depleted in Na₂O, MgO, K₂O, MnO, TiO₂, CaO, and P₂O₅. The trace element ratios of Ni/Co and Cu/Zn of the shale suggest an oxic depositional environment. The average SiO₂ vs. Al₂O₃ ratio of the shales indicated textural maturity. Compared to the PAAS standard, the shales plot below the PAAS value of 0.85, suggesting a high degree of maturity and intensive chemical weathering, further confirmed on a CIA vs. PIA plot. On log (K₂O/Na₂O) against SiO₂ and tectonic setting discriminant function diagrams, the shales plot mostly in the field of passive continental margin tectonic setting. The discriminant function diagrams as well as Al₂O₃/TiO₂ ratio of the shales showed that they were derived from a mixed source (mafic and intermediate igneous rocks).

Acetone, a metabolite detected from the exhaled breath of people doing a diet, can be used for non-invasive monitoring of diet efficiency. Thus, gas sensors with rapid response and recovery characteristics to acetone need to be developed. Herein, we report ultrafast acetone sensors using Ce-doped In₂O₃ nanoparticles prepared by the one-pot microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The pure In₂O₃ sensor shows a high response and fast response time (τ_res = 6 s) upon exposure to 2 ppm acetone at 300 ℃, while exhibiting a relatively sluggish recovery speed (τ_recov = 1129 s). When 20 wt% Ce is doped, the τ_recov of the sensor significantly decreased to 45 s withholding the fast-responding characteristic (τ_res = 6 s). In addition, the acetone response (resistance ratio, S) of the sensor is as high as 5.8, sufficiently high to detect breath acetone. Moreover, the sensor shows similar acetone sensing characteristics even under a highly humid condition (relative humidity of 60%) in terms of τ_res (6 s), τ_recov (47 s), and S (4.7), demonstrating its high potential in real applications. The excellent acetone sensing characteristics of Ce-doped In₂O₃ nanoparticles are discussed in terms of their size, composition, phase, and oxygen adsorption on the sensing surface.

고정층 상압 유통식 반응기를 사용하여 M(1)-Ni(5)/AlCeO₃ (M = La, Ce, Y) 촉매상에서 메탄의 부분 산화 반응을 수행하여 수소의 수율을 조사하였다. XRD 분석으로 반응 전과 반응 후의 환원된 La(1)-Ni(5)/AlCeO₃ 촉매의 결정상 특성피크를 조사하였고 FESEM과 EDS 분석으로 La, Ni, Ce 금속 입자가 촉매 표면상에 균일하게 분포하고 있음을 조사하였다. XPS 분석으로 촉매 표면상에 O^2-, O₂^2-의 산소와 Ce³⁺, Ce⁴+, La³⁺, Ni²⁺ 등의 이온이 존재함을 알 수 있었고, Ni(5)/AlCeO₃ 촉매에 1 wt%의 La를 첨가하면 Ni2p_3/2과 Ce3d_5/2의 원자가 각각 52.7과 6.3%로 증가하였다. La(1)-Ni(5)/AlCeO₃ 촉매상에서 수소의 수율은 89.1%이었으며, M(1)-Ni(5)/AlCeO₃ (M = Ce, Y)보다 매우 우수하였다. AlCeO₃이 산소와 반응하여 만들어진 CeO₂의 Ce⁴⁺ 이온이 La³⁺로 치환됨으로서 격자에 산소 빈자리를 만들고 strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) 효과로 Ni 원자의 분산을 증가시켜 수소 수율를 향상시켰다.

본 연구에서는 Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ 이중 버퍼층위에 ITO박막을 증착하여, SiO₂버퍼층 두께 변화 (40~50 nm)에 따른 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ 이중 버퍼층을 도입한 ITO박막의 표면 거칠기는 0.815에서 1.181 nm 범위의 작은 값을 가지는 매끄러운 형상을 보였고, 면저항은 99.3~134.0 Ω/sq. 범위로 정전용량식 터치스크린 패널에 적용하는데 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 Nb₂O₅ (10 nm) / SiO₂ (40 nm) 이중 버퍼층을 삽입한 ITO박막의 단파장(400~500 nm) 영역에서의 평균 투과도와 색도(b^*)는 83.58 % 와 0.05로 이중버퍼층이 삽입되지 않은 ITO박막의 74.46 % 와 4.28에 비해 상당히 향상된 결과를 나타내었다. 이를 통해 Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ 이중 버퍼층을 도입한 ITO박막에서 인덱스 매칭 효과로 인해 단파장 영역의 투과도 및 색도와 같은 광학적 특성이 현저히 향상되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, an MPB PMNT system containing 0.05 to 0.10 wt.% BaTiO₃ was synthesized using a traditional chemical method and its pyroelectricity was investigated. Pyroelectricity, dielectricity, and ferroelectricity of the synthesized BaTiO₃-PMNT system were analyzed by heat treatment at 1240~1280 ℃ for 4 hours to evaluate its applicability as a pyroelectric sensor. Unlike the simple ABO₃ ferroelectric, the BaTiO₃-doped PMNT system exhibited phase transition characteristics over a wide temperature range typical of complex perovskite structures. Although no dramatic change could be confirmed depending on the amount of BaTiO₃ added, stable pyroelectricity was maintained near room temperature and over a wide temperature range. When the amount of BaTiO₃ added increased from 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT to 0.10BaTiO₃-PMNT, the electric field slightly increased from 5.00×10³ kV/m to 6.75×10³ kV/m, and the maximum value of remanent polarization slightly increased from 0.223 C/m² to 0.234 C/m². The pyroelectric coefficients of 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT and 0.10BaTiO₃- PMNT at room temperature were measured to be ~0.0084 C/m²K and ~0.0043 C/m²K, respectively. The relaxor ferroelectric properties of the BaTiO₃-PMNT system were confirmed by analyzing the plot of K_max/K versus (T-T_max)^γ. The BaTiO₃-doped MPB PMNT system showed a distinct pyroelectric performance index at room temperature, and the values were F_v ~ 0.0362 m²/C, F_d ~ 0.575×10^-4 Pa^-1/2.

Nano-structured one-dimensional $Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ particles were synthesized by a molten salt process. Effects of processing parameters on the microstructure and band gap energy of the $Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ powder were studied in this paper. For the synthesis of the $Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ particles, two different raw materials of tubular shaped Na-titanate (Na-TiNT) and spherical shaped $TiO_2$ were utilized. Synthesizing with the raw material of Na-TiNT, around 70nm thick 1D-$Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ with the bandgap energy of 3.5 eV was obtained at $810^{\circ}C$. Below $810^{\circ}C$ or without the presence of NaCl, 1D-$Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ was in a relatively short in length and agglomerated state. With the processing temperature increased, the thickness of the 1D-$Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ was also observed to be increased. On the other hand, when $TiO_2$ was employed as a raw material, the mixed amount of $Na_2CO_3$ played an important role in transforming the morphology and phase of the raw material, affecting the bandgap energy of the synthesized product. Specific surface area of the synthesized 1D-$Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ was significantly affected by the raw and mixed materials as well as processing temperature. When Na-TiNT was processed at $810^{\circ}C$ with NaCl, the specific surface area of the 1D-$Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ showed the best value of 30.63 $m^2/g$.

본 연구에서는 ZnO-Na₂O-B₂O₃-SiO₂ 계 유리에 CaO의 첨가에 따른 유리의 열적, 화학적 특성, 표면 제타전위 및 항균특성을 분석하였다. 유리 조성에 따른 열적 특성은 DTA 분석을 통해 확인하였고, 30ZnO-xCaO-20Na₂O-30B₂O₃-(20-x)SiO₂ (x = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 mol%)계 유리에서 CaO 함량이 증가함에 따라 유리전이온도가 줄어드는 것을 확인하였다. CaO 함량이 늘어날수록 유리 구조가 약화됨에 따라 더 많은 Zn²⁺ 이온이 용출되었고, 알칼리 및 알칼리 토류의 초기 급속한 용출로 인해 유리의 표면 제타전위가 증가함을 확인하였다. 이러한 이유로 유리의 항균활성 또한 급격하게 개선됨을 확인하였으며, 대장균(gram negative)과 황색포도상구균(gram positive) 모두에 대해 99.9 % 항균 활성을 갖는 항균 유리를 개발할 수 있었다.

In this study, novel $Ag_2Se$ sensitized $TiO_2$ nanocomposites were prepared by facile sonochemical assisted synthesis method. The as-prepared products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and N2 adsorption BET analysis. The as-prepared $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposites simultaneously possessed great adsorptivity for organic dyes and efficient charge separation properties. In the decolorization of rhodamine B, a significant enhancement in the reaction rate was observed for the $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposite compared to the cases of using pure P25 or $TiO_2$. The sonocatalysis activity was higher due to the greater formation of reactive radicals, as well as to the increase of the active surface area of the $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposite.
