Detailed aspects of the charge disproportionation (CD) transition for a polycrystalline $La_{1/3}Sr_{2/3}FeO_{2.96}$ were studied with the X-ray diffraction, $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy, and SQUID magnetometer. The crystal structure was found to be rhombohedral with a space group R/3c. The lattice parameters were $a_R=5.4874\;\AA,\;and\;a_R=60.07^{\circ}$, respectively. $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectra were taken within a wide range of temperature from 4.2 K up to room temperature. In the low temperature region, the spectra were comprised of two superimposed sextets which originated from $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Fe^{5+}$, respectively. This was the antiferromagnetic mixed valence state produced by the charges disproportionated into two different species. In the high temperature region, however, only a singlet from $Fe^{3.6+}$ was observed, indicating that it was a paramagnetic averaged valence state. The CD transition occurred in the temperature range from 175 K to 200 K, in which the two phases coexisted. The origin for the CD transition was explained by the thermally generated fast hopping of electrons. Hysteresis loop showed that there existed a strong antiferromagnetic interaction among magnetic ions. As the temperature increased thru the CD transition temperature, it was very likely that the interaction between $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Fe^{5+}$ was replaced by a more stronger one.

The photoconductive $CdGa_2Se4$ layer has been investigated using photocurrent (PC) spectroscopy as a function of temperature. Three peaks corresponding to the band-to-band transitions were observed in the PC spectra for all temperature ranges. Also, contrary to our expectation, the PC intensities decreased with decreasing temperatures. From the relation of log $J_{ph}$ vs 1/T, where $J_{ph}$ is the PC density, two dominant levels by the exponential variation of the PC with varying temperature were observed, one at high temperatures and the other at low temperatures.

FANCJ is a DNA helicase which contributes genome stability by resolving G-quadruplex DNA from 5' to 3' direction. In addition to main ATPase helicase core, FANCJ has the protein binding region at its C-terminal part. BRCA1 and BLM are the binding partner of FANCJ and these protein-protein interactions contribute genomic stability and the proper response to replication stress. As the first attempt for studying FANCJ-BLM interaction, we prepared BLM binding region of FANCJ and characterized with CD and NMR spectroscopy. FANCJ (881-941) with N-ter 6xHis was purified as the oligomer. Secondary structure prediction based on CD data revealed that FANCJ (881-941) composed with ${\beta}$ sheet, turn and coils.$^1H-^{15}N$ HSQC spectra showed nonhomogeneous peak intensities with less number of peaks comparing than the number of amino acids in the construct. It indicated that optimization should be necessary for detailed further structural studies.

The interaction of cadmium (II) ion with quercetin and (+)-catechin was investigated in aqueous solution at various pH. The flavonoid/cadmium stochiometries for cadmium (II) binding to quercetin and (+)-catechin have been determined by UV-vis spectroscopy. 1 : 1 Cd (II)-Flavonoid complex had a maximum absorbance and showed the bathochromic shift of the long-wavelength band of the UV-vis spectra in the alkaline pH, that occurs upon complexation, due to a ligandto-metal charge transfer. These results suggest that Cd (II)-flavonoid complex has the optimal condition of chelation in 0.2 M $NH_3$ - 0.2 M $NH_4Cl$ (pH 8.0) solution.

In this paper, CdS thin films for the use of window layer in solar cell were fabricated by vacuum evaporation method to improve the reproducibility, The electrical and optical properties of thin films with the variations of substrates temperature and the variations of the film thickness were investigated. As increasing the substrates temperature the resistivities of films were increased. The samples transmissivity were shown over 70% when the wavelength were above 500 nm. In the films with 280 nm thickness, its transmissivity were reached 100%. The resistivities of the samples were decreased as increasing its thickness.

We modified the optical properties of the $CuInS_2$ nanocrystal (NC) by alloying. Nanocrystals (NCs) with alloyed cores were synthesized by refluxing the as-synthesized $CuInS_2$ NCs with a mixture of cadmium acetate, zinc acetate and palmitic acid. The shift in emission wavelength of the NCs after shell layer formation was minimized by alloying. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed significant reduction of emission intensity. A detailed study on the emission process of NCs implies that the formation of shell layers with small lattice mismatch minimized the mismatch strain generated from the shell layers in contrast to core alloyed NCs. In particular, time-resolved PL spectra of the NCs showed a significant increase in the lifetime of excited carriers by modifying the band alignment of the NCs by modifying the shell composition.

The luminescence and fluorescence were investigated by photoluminescence spectroscopy for six gemstones which exhibit color change effect. The shape of luminescence peaks appears different when observed by a photoluminescence spectroscopewith a 514 nm Ar laser source. However, it was not possible to observe the difference in the spectra between the natural and synthetic origins for the same type of gemstones. It was found that the photoluminescence spectrum was related to the crystal structure of the stones. Photoluminescence spectra using a 325 nm He-Cd source reveal that fluorescence is relatively strong for synthetic alexandrite, synthetic color change sapphire and natural alexandrite comparing to the rest of gemstones examined.

Most diagnostic devices in the medical field use X-ray sources, which emit energy spectra. In radiological diagnosis, the quantitative and qualitative analyses of X-rays are essential for maintaining the image quality and minimizing the radiation dose to patients. This work aims to obtain the X-ray energy spectra used in diagnostic imaging by Monte Carlo simulation. Various X-ray spectra are simulated using a Monte Carlo simulation tool. These spectra are then compared to the reference data obtained with a tungsten anode spectral model using the interpolating polynomial (TASMIP) code. The X-ray tube voltages used are 50, 60, 80, 100, and 110 kV, respectively. CdTe and a-Se detector are used as the detectors for obtaining the X-ray spectra. Simulation results demonstrate that the various X-ray spectra are well matched with the reference data. Based on the simulation results, an appropriate X-ray spectrum, in accordance with the tube voltage, can be selected when generating an image for diagnostic imaging. The dose to be delivered to the patient can be predicted prior to examination in the diagnostic field.

CdS thin films prepared by vaccum evaperation have been studied the characteristcs of room temperature of scanning electron microscoe(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD), energy dispersive X-ray(EDX), and photoluminescence(PL)spectra. The cubic to hexagonal structure phase transitin has been determined to be $350^{\circ}C~450^{\circ}C$. The results of compensated donor levels of $O_2$and Si impurites at S-vacancy were identified CdO and $Cd_2SiO_4$defects. The edge emission peaks measured by PL of room temperature was donor level accoding the theses $O_2$and Si impurites were due to 2.43eV($350^{\circ}C$) and 2.42eV(55$0^{\circ}C$) peak energies respectively. The structure transition annealing temperature was measured $370^{\circ}C$ similar to Ariza-Calderons result, $374^{\circ}C$ by CBD films.

The circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of trans-[Co(R,R-chxn)$_2Cl_2]^+$ complex with different counter-ions have been measured in several organic solvents, where R,R-chxn is (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane. The observed variations in the CD spectrum of the complex exhibited remarkable solvent dependences. And it has been observed that the degree of the change of CD spectrum in the first absorption band region $(^1A_{2g})$ depends on the donor number (DN) of the solvents. From $^1H$ NMR spectrum, it is interpreted that these variations in the CD spectrum of trans-[Co(R,R-chxn)$_2Cl_2]^+$ complex are due to the favorable interaction between solvent molecules and the equatorial N-H protons of R,R-chxn ligands.
