In this study, a positive-electrode material in a lithium secondary battery $Li[Ni_{0.575}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.325}]O_2$ was synthesized as precursor by co-precipitation. Cathode material was synthesized by adding iron. The synthesized cathode material was analyzed by scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffraction. The analysis of x-ray diffraction showed that the a-axis and c-axis is increased by doping iron. And $I_{(003)}/I_{(104)}$ is increased and $I_{(006)}+I_{(102)}/I_{(101)}$ is decreased. Through this result, it was confirmed that the structural stability is improved. And impedance measurements show that the charge transfer resistance ($R_{ct}$) is lowered by doping iron. Consequently, electrochemical properties are improved by doping iron. In particular, the cycle characteristics are improved at a high temperature condition (328 K). Structural stabilities are contributing to the cycle properties.

We synthesized the binuclear Tetradentate Schiff base cobalt (II) complexes; [Co(II)$_2$(SMPD)$_2$(L)$_2$] and [Co(II)$_2$(SPPD)$_2$(L)$_2$] (where, SMPD: N,N'-bis(salicylaldehyde)-m-phenylenediimine, SPPD: N,N'-bis(salicylaldehyde)-p-phenylenediimine, L: Py, DMSO and DMF). We identified the binuclear structure of these complexes by elemental analysis, IR-spectrum, and T. G. A. According to the results of cyclic voltammetry and DPP measurements in aprotic solvents containing 0.1M TEAP as supporting electrolyte, it was found that diffusionally controlled redox process of two step for one electron was reversible or quasi reversible process in 0.1M TEAP-pyridine and 0.1M TEAP-DMSO solution at mononuclear complexes; [Co(II)(SOPD)(L)$_2$]. But, we knew that diffusionally controlled reduction processes of four steps with one electron for binuclear [Co(II)$_2$(SMPD)$_2$(L)$_2$] and [Co(II)$_2$(SPPD)$_2$(L)$_2$] complexes was Co(III)$_2\;{\longrightarrow^e}$ Co(III)Co(II) ${\longrightarrow^e}$ Co(II)$_2\;{\longrightarrow^e}$ Co(II)Co(I) ${\longrightarrow^e}$ Co(I)$_2$ in aprotic solvents.

Background and Objectives: $VoCoM^{(R)}$ is a set composed of prefabricated hydroxylapatite implants and shims of various sizes that are designed for the type I thyroplasty, Authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy of $VoCoM^{(R)}$ System in type I thyroplasty. Materials and Method: Twenty three patients with unilateral vocal cord palsy were included in the study, who received type I thyroplasty with $VoCoM^{(R)}$ between May 2000 and May 2007 in St. Mary's Hospital, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea, Acoustic, aerodynamic and stroboscopic analyses were performed pre-and post-operatively, Subjective voice improvement was analysed by Voice handicap index, Results : Preoperative jitter was $4.68{\pm}2.46%$ and improved to $3.19{\pm}1.94%$(P<0,05), Preoperative NHR was $0.26{\pm}0.1$ and improved to $0.18{\pm}0,07$(P<0.05), Preoperative MPT was $6.16{\pm}4.9$secs improved to $9.55{\pm}4.67$secs(p<0.05), The postoperative stroboscopy revealed an effective medialization of vocal fold of all patients, Conclusion: Type I thyroplasty using $VoCoM^{(R)}$ is a efficient, safe and convenient way of vocal fold medialization at the expense of its high cost and difficulty in removal.

The crystal structures of $Co^{2+}\;and\;Ag^+\;exchanged\;zeolite\; A,\; Ag_6Co_3$-A(a = 12.131(5)$\AA$) and $Ag_3Co_{4.5}$-A(a = 12.145(1)$\AA$), have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Both structures were solved and refined in the cubic space group Pm3m at 21(1)$^{\circ}C$. Full-matrix leastsquares refinement converged to the final error indices of R1 = 0.045 and R2 = 0.041 for $Ag_3Co_{4.5}-A,\; and\; R1 = 0.066\; and\; R2 = 0.076\; for\; Ag_6Co_3$-A using the 258 and 189 reflections, respectively, for which I > 3$\sigma$(I). Both structures indicate that CO(Ⅱ)ions are coordinated by three framework oxygens; the Co(II) to O(3) distances are 2.118(4)$\AA$ for $Ag_3Co_{4.5}$-A and 2.106(1)$\AA$ for $Ag_6Co_3-A$, respectively. In each structure, the angle substended at Co(II), O(3)-Co(II)-O(3) is ca 120°, close to the idealized trigonalplanar value. $Co^{2+}$ ions prefer to 6-ring sites and $Ag^+$ ions prefer to 8-ring site when total number of cations is more than 8. The crystals of hydrated and dehydrated $Ag_{12-2x}Co_x-A (x > 4.5)$ had no crystalline diffraction pattern, indicating the apparent exchange limit of $Co^{2+}\; into\; Ag_{12}-A\; is\; 4.5 Co^{2+}$ ions per unit cell. $Co^{2+}$ ions hydrolyze $H_2O$ molecules and $H_3O^+$ concentraction is accumulating. These $H_3O^+$ ions destroy the zeolite structures.

We present the high-resolution Immersion GRating INfrared Spectrograph (IGRINS) spectra of two Class I sources, IRAS03445+3242 and IRAS04239+2436. Both sources show the evidence of Keplerian disks; the broadened CO overtone (${\Delta}v=2$) transitions in emission and neutral metal lines (Mg I, Fe I, and Al I) in absorption. The thin Keplerian disk with a rotational velocity of ~100 km s-1 and a gas temperature of 5000 K at the innermost annulus can reproduce the CO overtone transitions including the bandhead emission. The outer dusty disk or the envelope needs to fit the narrow absorption features overlaid on the broad emission lines in the CO overtone transitions.

The distribution of coercivity in the thickness direction were investigated by using Kerr hysteresis loop tracer for the Co-Cr films deposited by Facing Targets Sputtering apparatus. It $H_{c{\bot}}(S)- H_{c{\bot}}(I)$ correlated strongly with ${\Delta}H_c$, which represents the degree of distribution of coercivity. Furthermore, the Cr content was varied in order to improve the coercivity of intial growth layer $H_{c{\bot}}(I)$ took a maximum value of 750 Oe and the distribution of coercivity became sharper at the Cr content of 25 at.%.

In this study, a co-axial flow induced microfluidic chip to fabricate pure collagen type I microfiber via the control of collagen type I and Na-alginate gelation process. The pure collagen type I microfiber was generated by selective degradation of Ca-alginate from 'Core-Shell' structured hydrogel microfiber. To make 'Core-Shell' structure, collagen type I solution was introduced into core channel and 1.5% Na-alginate solution was injected into side channel in microfluidic chip. To evaluatethe 'Core-Shell' structure, the red and green fluorescence substances were mixed into collagen type I and Na-alginate solution, respectively. The fluorescence substances were uniformly loaded into each fiber, and the different fluorescence images were dependent on their location. By immoblizing EpH4-Ras and C6 cells within collagen type I and Na-alginate solution, we sucessfully demonstrated the co-culture of EpH4-Ras and C6 cells with 'Core-Shell' like hydrogel microfiber for 5 days. Only to produce pure collagen type I hydrogel fiber, tri-sodium citrate solution was used to dissolve the shell-like Ca-alginate hydrogel fiber from 'Core-Shell' structured hydrogel microfiber, which is an excellent advantage when the fiber is employed in three-dimensional scaffold. This novel method could apply various application in tissue engineering and biomedical engineering.
