In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown on glass substrates coated with Ni/Cr by an atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(AP-PECVD) and their structural and electrical characteristics were investigated as a possible application to the field emitter of field emission display (FED) devices. The substrate temperature ($400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$) were varied and the grown CNTs were multi wall CNTs (at $500^{\circ}C$, 15 - 20 layers of graphene sheets, distance of each layer : 0.3nm, inner diameter: 10 - 15nm, outer diameter: 30 - 40nm). The ratio of defective carbon peak to graphite carbon peak of the CNTs grown at $500^{\circ}C$ (C measured by fourier transform(FT)-Raman was 0.772 $I_D / I_G$ ratio. When field emission properties were measured, the turn-on field was $2.92V/{\mu}m$ and the emission field at $1mA/cm^2$ was $5.325V /{\mu}m$.

This study was purposed to elucidate the best optimum sites by ecophysiological response measurements of Kalopanax pictus samplings of plantation. The diurnal changes of the stomatal transpiration, water use efficiency, water potential, and intercellullar $CO_2$ concentration of leaves were measured by the portable IR $CO_2$ analyzer. The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1) The daily stomatal transpiration rate was highest at 10:00 a.m. After 16:00, the stomatal transpiration rate rapidly decreased. 2) The daily water use efficiency was maximum at 8:00 a.m., and then rapidly decreased until midday with decreasing water potential. 3) The daily $C_i/C_a$ ratio rapidly decreased until 9:00 a.m., and then showed a stable value until 16:00, and then rapidly increased. The daily intercellullar $CO_2$ concentration ($C_i/C_a$ ratio) showed the same tendency as water potential changes. Consequently, stomatal transpiration and water use efficiency was increased with high water potential of leaves at am, and then remarkably decreased with low water potential at pm.

Uranyl-peroxide compound was prepared by the reaction of excess hydrogen peroxide solution and trace uranium in filtrate from nuclear fuel conversion plant. The $CO_3{^{2-}}$ in filtrate was removed first by heating more than $98^{\circ}C$, because uranyl-peroxide compound could not be precipitated by $CO_3{^{2-}}$ remaining in filtrate. The optimum condition for uranyl-peroxide compound was ageing for 1 hr after controling the pH with $NH_3$ gas and adding the excess $H_2O_2$ of 10ml/lit.-filtrate. Uranium concentration in the filtrate was appeared to 3 ppm after the precipitation of uranyl-peroxide compound, and the chemical composition of this compound was analyzed to $UO_4{\cdot}2NH_4F$ with FT-IR, X-ray diffractometry, TG and chemical analysis. Also, this fine particle, about $1{\sim}2{\mu}m$, could be grown up to $4{\mu}m$ at pH 9.5 and $60^{\circ}C$. The separation efficiency of precipitate from mother liquor was increased with increase of pH and reaction temperature. Otherwise, the crystal form of this particle showed octahedral by SEM and XRD, and $U_3O_8$ powder was obtained by thermal decomposition at $650^{\circ}C$ in air atmosphere.

Silicon dioxide thick film using silica optical waveguide cladding was fabricated by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition(PECVD) method, at a low temperature ($320^{\circ}$C) and from $(SiH_4+N_2O)$ gas mixtures. The effects of deposition parameters on properties of $SiO_2$ thick films were investigated by variation of $N_2O/SiH_4$ flow ratio and RF power. After the deposition process, the samples were annealed in a furnace at $1150^{\circ}$C, in N2 atmosphere, for 2h. As the $N_2O/SiH_4$ flow ratio increased, deposition rate decreased from 9.4 to 2.9 ${\mu}m/h$. As the RF power increased, deposition rate increased from 4.7 to 6.9 ${\mu}m/h$. The thickness and the refractive index measurements were measured by prism coupler. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS) and Fourier Transform-infrared Spectroscopy(FT-IR) were used to determine the chemical states. The cross-section of films was observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM).

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $AgGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $AgGaSe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $630^{\circ}C\;and\;420^{\circ}C$, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $AgGaSe_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=1.9501eV-(8.79x10^{-4}eV/K)T^2(T+250K)$. After the as-grown $AgGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films was annealed in Ag-, Se-, and Ga-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of $AgGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence (PL) at 10K. The native defects of $V_{Ag},\;V_{Se},\;Ag_{int},\;and\;Se_{int}$ obtained by PL measurements were classified as a donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the Ag-atmosphere converted $AgGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films to an optical p-type. Also, we confirmed that Ga in $AgGaSe_2$/GaAs did not form the native defects because Ga in $AgGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

The morphology and photoluminescence characteristics of green light emitting hexaaluminate phosphor particles prepared by high temperature spray pyrolysis from spray solution with and without ammonium dihydrogen phosphate flux were investigated. The particles prepared from spray solution without flux material had hollow morphology at preparation temperatures between $900^{\circ}C$ and $1,650^{\circ}C$. Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate flux added into spray solution enabled the formation of particles with spherical shape and filled morphology at preparation temperatures between $900^{\circ}C$ and $1,650^{\circ}C$. The hexaaluminate phosphor particles with magnetoplumbite structure were directly prepared by spray pyrolysis from spray solution with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate flux above $1,600^{\circ}C$. Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate flux was effective in improving the photoluminescence intensity of the phosphor particles at low preparation temperatures. The phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with and without flux material by spray pyrolysis under reducing atmosphere at $1,650^{\circ}C$ had comparable photoluminescence intensities with that of the phosphor particles optimized by post-treatment.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were 630 $\^{C}$ and 420 $\^{C}$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.01$\times$10$\^$16/ cm$\^$-3/ and 219 ㎠/V$.$s at 293 K, respectively. From the optical absorption measurement, the temperature dependence of energy band gap on CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was found to be Eg(T) ＝ 2.7116 eV - (7.74 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/ eV) T$\^$2//(T＋434). After the as-grown CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was annealed in Cd-, S-, and In-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) at 10 K. The native defects of V$\_$cd/, V$\_$s/, Cd$\_$int/ and S$\_$int/ obtained by PL measurements were classified as donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the S-atmosphere converted CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films to an optical p-type. Also, we confirmed that In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/GaAs did not from the native defects because In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

Sr$_{l-x}$Ba$_{x}$Al$_2$O$_4$:Eu (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mol) phosphor was synthesized by the hydrothermal method and its properties of photoluminescence and long-afterglow were investigated. The mixtures of Sr(NO$_3$)$_2$, Al(NO$_3$)$_3$9$H_2O$, and Eu(NO$_3$)$_3$$.$6$H_2O$ salts dissolved in distilled water, after controlling their pH by NH$_4$OH solution, put into an Autoclave reactor with high temperature and pressure to react. Such synthesized SrAl$_2$O$_4$:Eu powders showed homogeneous and ultra-fine particles of sub-micron size. In order to have the photoluminescence characteristic, powders were heat treated at 1100 -140$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in Ar/H$_2$ reduction atmosphere. Photoluminescence spectra showed a excitation along the wide wavelength of 250 ∼ 450 nm, and broaden emission with maxima peak at 520 nm. Also, it showed a good long afterglow with decaying over 1000 sec after excitation illumination for 10 min. In addition, the microstructure and crystal structure of SrAl$_2$O$_4$:Eu powders were investigated by an SEM and XRD, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to identity scientific models included in the Earth domain of the $10^{th}$ grade science textbooks. Three earth science-related chapters in each of 11 trade books were analyzed. A framework was developed and used to classify a scientific model from three different perspectives: medium of representation, method of representation, and mobility of a model. Results showed that the science textbooks utilized domain-specific models in which the nature of sub-areas of earth science was embedded. That is, the unit of 'Change of the Earth' included many iconic models that represented the inaccessible inner structure of the earth and the movement of the tectonic plates. These were also two-dimensional pictorial and static models. In the chapter of 'Atmosphere and Oceans', symbolic and diagrammatic models were dominant in use, which included weather maps and contour line graphs of sea surface temperature and salinity. The unit of 'Solar System and Galaxies' showed the highly frequent use of iconic and analogical models for the large-scale celestial objects and their movements. Implications for earth science education and relevant research were discussed.
