금-은 함유 황화광물 정광으로부터 Au와 Ag를 용출시키기 위하여 황화광물 정광을 건식과 습식으로 전처리하였다. 전처리한 황화광물에 대하여 광물학적 연구와 티오요소 용출실험을 수행하였다. 평균입도와 등전위는 정광시료에서 보다 건식 전-처리 시료에서 낮게 나타났고, 건식 전-처리 시료 보다 습식 전-처리 시료에서 더 낮게 나타났다. XRD 분석결과, 습식 전-처리 시료에서만 비정질의 특성이 나타났다. 정광시료에서, 최대의 Au, Ag 용출인자는 1.0 g의 티오요소, 1.0 M의 황산제2철, 2.0 M의 황산 농도에서 그리고 $60^{\circ}C$의 용출온도에서였다. Au, Ag용출률은 건식 전-처리 시료에서 보다 습식 전-처리 시료에서 언제나 많이 그리고 빠르게 나타났다. 따라서, 향후 적당한 미분쇄 첨가제와 시간으로 전처리를 수행하고 비-시안 용매를 적용한다면 친환경적으로 Au, Ag를 용출시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

나노크기의 Au-Si을 촉매로 급속열화학기상증착(rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition)법을 이용하여 Si(111) 기판에 성장한 Si 나노선의 구조적인 형태 변화와 광학적 특성을 연구하였다. 기상-액상-고상(vapor-liquid-solid) 성장법에 의한 Si 나노선 형성 과정에서 액상 입자인 Au-Si 나노점은 나노선 성장온도에서 촉매로 사용되었다. 이 액상 나노점이 형성된 Si 기판에 1.0Torr 압력과 $500-600^{\circ}C$ 기판 온도 하에서 $SiH_4$와 $H_2$의 혼합가스를 공급하여 Si 나노선을 형성하였다. Si 나노선 성장 후 형태를 전계방출 주사전자현미경(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope)으로 관찰한 결과, 대부분의 나노선이 균일한 크기로 기판 표면에 수직하게 <111> 방향으로 정렬된 것을 확인하였다. 형성된 나노선의 크기는 평균 직경이 ${\sim}60nm$이고 평균 길이가 ${\sim}5um$임을 확인하였다. 또한 고 분해능 투과전자현미경(High Resolution-Transmission Electron Microscope) 관찰을 통해 Si 나노선은 약 3nm의 비정질 산화층으로 둘러 싸여 있는 Si 단결정임이 분석되었다. 그리고 마이크로 라만 분광(Micro-Raman Scattering)법을 통한 광학적 특성 분석 결과, Si의 광학 포논(Optical Phonon) 신호 위치가 Si 나노선 구조의 영향으로 낮은 에너지 쪽으로 이동하며, Si 포논 신호의 폭이 비대칭적으로 증가함을 확인하였다.

본 연구목적은 비-가시성 금 정광(Au = 1,840.00 g/t)으로부터 금을 단체분리 시키기 위하여 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 질산농도 효과, 마이크로웨이브 침출시간 효과 그리고 시료 첨가량 효과에 대하여 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 실험조건에서는 금이 전혀 침출되지 않은 것으로 조사되었다. 불용성-잔류물의 무게는 질산 농도, 마이크로웨이브 침출시간 그리고 시료 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하는 경향으로 나타났다. 불용성-잔류물에 대하여 XRD 분석한 결과 석고와 anglesite가 나타나는데 이는 정광에 포함된 방해석과 방연석이 질산용액과 반응하여 생성된 것으로 사료된다. 불용성-잔류물에 대하여 납-시금법을 수행한 결과 정광보다 금함량이 최소 1.3배(Au = 2,464.70 g/t)에서 최대 28.8배(52,952.80 g/t)로 높게 나타났다. 그러나 납-시금법에서 회수된 금 함량은 gold nugget effect가 매우 심하게 나타났다. 향후, 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험에서 정광의 시료채취 방법을 개선하고, 더 작은 기공 크기의 여과지를 사용하여 침출용액을 여과하고 납-시금법에서 여과지를 태워서 시료로 투입하는 방법을 수행한다면 gold nugget effect를 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Nanoscale noble-metals have attracted enormous attention from researchers in various fields of study because of their unusual optical properties as well as novel chemical properties. They have possible uses in diverse applications such as devices, transistors, optoelectronics, information storages, and energy converters. It is well-known that nanoparticles of noble-metals such as silver and gold show strong absorption bands in the visible region due to their surface-plasmon oscillation modes of conductive electrons. Silver nanocubes stand out from various types of Silver nanostructures (e.g., spheres, rods, bars, belts, and wires) due to their superior performance in a range of applications involvinglocalized surface plasmon resonance, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, and biosensing. In addition, extensive efforts have been devoted to the investigation of Gold-based nanocomposites to achieve high catalytic performances and utilization efficiencies. Furthermore, as the catalytic reactivity of Silver nanostructures depends highly on their morphology, hollow Gold nanoparticles having void interiors may offer additional catalytic advantages due to their increased surface areas. Especially, hollow nanospheres possess structurally tunable features such as shell thickness, interior cavity size, and chemical composition, leading to relatively high surface areas, low densities, and reduced costs compared with their solid counterparts. Thus, hollow-structured noblemetal nanoparticles can be applied to nanometer-sized chemical reactors, efficient catalysts, energy-storage media, and small containers to encapsulate multi-functional active materials. Silver nanocubes dispersed in water have been transformed into Ag@Au nanoboxes, which show highly enhanced catalytic properties, by adding $HAuCl_4$. By using this concept, $SiO_2$-coated Ag@Au nanoboxes have been synthesized via galvanic replacement of $SiO_2$-coated Ag nanocubes. They have lower catalytic ability but more stability than Ag@Au nanoboxes do. Thus, they could be recycled. $SiO_2$-coated Ag@Au nanoboxes have been found to catalyze the degradation of 4-nitrophenol efficiently in the presence of $NaBH_4$. By changing the amount of the added noble metal salt to control the molar ratio Au to Ag, we could tune the catalytic properties of the nanostructures in the reduction of the dyes. The catalytic ability of $SiO_2$-coated Ag@Au nanoboxes has been found to be much more efficient than $SiO_2$-coated Ag nanocubes. Catalytic performances were affected noteworthily by the metals, sizes, and shapes of noble-metal nanostructures.

1 kV high-voltage GaN Schottky diode is realized using GaN-on-Si template by oxidizing Ni-Schottky contact. The Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) analysis revealed the formation of $NiO_x$ at the top of Schottky contact. The Schottky contact was changed to from Ni/Au to Ni/Ni-Au alloy/Au/$NiO_x$ by oxidation. Ni diffusion into AlGaN improves the Schottky interface and the trap-assisted tunneling current. In addition, the reverse leakage current and the isolation-leakage current are efficiently suppressed by oxidation. The isolation-leakage current was reduced about 3 orders of magnitudes. The reverse leakage current was also decreased from 2.44 A/$cm^2$ to 8.90 mA/$cm^2$ under -100 V-biased condition. The formed group-III oxides ($AlO_x$ and $GaO_x$) during the oxidation is thought to suppress the surface leakage current by passivating surface dangling bonds, N-vacancies and process damages.

Recently, data from several groups have raised the concept of 'checkpoint' in transcription. As capping of nascent RNA transcript is tightly coupled to RNA polymerase II transcription, we seek to obtain direct evidence that transcripiton checkpoint via capping enzyme functions in this early regulatory step. One of temperature sensitive (ts) alleles of ceg1, a guanylyltransferase subunit of the Saccharomyces cerevisiaecapping enzyme, showed 6-azauracil (6AU) sensitivity at the permissive growth temperature, which is a phenotype that is correlated with a transcription elongational defect. This ts allele, ceg1-63 also has an impaired ability to induce PUR5 in response to a 6AU treatment. However, this cellular and molecular defect is not due to the preferential degradation of the transcript attributed from a lack of guanylyltransferase activity. On the contrary, the data suggests that the guanylyltransferase subunit of the capping enzyme plays a role in transcription elongation. First, in addition to the 6AU sensitivity, ceg1-63is synthetically lethal with elongation defective mutations of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II. Secondly, it exhibited a lower GAL1 mRNA turn-over after glucoseshut off. Third, it decreased the transcription read through a tandem array of promoter proximal pause sites in an orientation dependent manner. Interestingly, this mutant also showed lower pass through a pause site located further downstream of the promoter. Taken together, these results suggest that the capping enzyme plays the role of an early transcription checkpoint possibly in the step of the reversion of repression by stimulating polymerase to escape from the promoter proximal arrest once RNA becomes appropriately capped.

In order to investigate the biocompatibility of silver-palladium alloys, gingival fibroblast was obtained from a healthy human gingival and cultured in MEM medium with the addition of silverpalladium alloys. Four different mixture of silver-palladium alloys comprising of Ag-Pd-Au, Ag-Pd-In and Ag-Sn were tested. Results were assessed by calculating the cell multiplication rate per millimeter of medium and morphological changes in cells were also observed and noted.The obtained results were as follows; 1. Ag-Pd-Au alloy was indicated to be most biocompatible with gingival fibroblast. Also there was a decrease in cytotoxicity of the alloy as the concentration of gold increased. 2. Ag-Pd alloy showed a decrease in cell multiplication rate as compared to Ag-Pd~Au alloy. 3. Silver-palladium alloy supplemented with Indium increased the cell multiplication rate. 4. Among the alloys tested, Ag-Sn alloy was indicated to be the most cytotoxic and the least biocompatible with human gingival fibroblast.

It is considered that comets near the ecliptic plane have been injected into inner solar system from Kuiper-belt. Some of them are still active while others are dormant with no detectable tails and comae. These dormant comets have eccentric and/or inclined orbits, which are parameterized by Tisserand parameter TJ<3. In addition, dormant comets can be differentiated from asteroids based on the albedo, because they have low albedo (the geometrical albedos pv<0.1). The conditions of TJ<3 and pv<0.1 have been used as a criteria to discriminate dormant comets from asteroids. However, we must be more careful because there are 'contaminations' from the outer region, i.e. Jovian Trojans (5.05

This paper presents a hermetic MEMS on-chip package bonded by a closed-loop AuSn solder-line. We design three different package specimens, including a substrate heated specimen without interconnection-line (SHX), a substrate heated specimen with interconnection-line (SHI) and a locally heated specimen with interconnection-line (LHI). Pressurized helium leak test has been carried out for hermetic seal evaluation in addition to the critical pressure test for bonding strength measurement. Substrate heating method (SHX, SHI) requires the bonding time of 40min. at 400min, while local heating method (LHI) requires 4 min. at the heating power of 6.76W. In the hermetic seal test. SHX, SHI and LHI show the leak rates of 5.4$\pm$6.7${\times}$$^{-10}$ mbar-l/s, 13.5$\pm$9.8${\times}$$^{-10}$ mbar-l/s and 18.5$\pm$9.9${\times}$$^{-10}$ mbar-l/s, respectively, for an identical package chamber volume of 6.89$\pm$0.2${\times}$$^{-10}$. In the critical pressure test, no fracture is found in the bonded specimens up to the applied pressure of 1$\pm$0.1MPa, resulting in the minimum bonding strength of 3.53$\pm$0.07MPa. We find that the present on-chip packaging using a closed AuSn solder-line shows strong potential for hermetic MEMS packaging with interconnection-line due to the hermetic seal performance and the shorter bonding time for mass production.
