Effects of pH level and slurry particle size on material removal rate and planarization of langasite single crystal wafer have been examined. Higher material removal rate was obtained with lower pH level slurries while the planarization was found to be determined by average particle size of colloidal silica slurries. Slurries containing 0.045 ㎛ amorphous silica particles showed the best polishing effect without any scratches on the surface. Effective particle number has a strong effect on the surface planarization and the removal rate, so that the lower effective particle numbers produced low removal rate but the better planarization results.

We report the fabrication of pentacene organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) using a fluorinated styrene-alt-maleic anhydride copolymer gate dielectric, which was prepared from styrene derivatives with a fluorinated side chain [$-CH_2-O-(CH_2)_2-(CF_2)_5CF_3$] and maleic anhydride through a solution polymerization technique. The fluorinated side chain was used to impart hydrophobicity to the surface of the gate dielectric and maleic anhydride was employed to improve its wetting properties. A field-effect mobility of 0.12 cm$^2$/Vs was obtained from the as-prepared top-contact pentacene FETs. Since various functional groups can be introduced into the copolymer due to the nature of maleic anhydride, its physical properties can be manipulated easily. Using this type of copolymer, the performance of organic FETs can be enhanced through optimization of the interfacial properties between the gate dielectric and organic semiconductor.

Lidocaine(2-Diethylaminoaceto-2', 6'-xylidide) was transdennally delivered by iontophoresis and the effect of enhancer on the delivery of lidocaine was studied. We delivered lidocaine through the skin of hairless mouse using diffusion cell and investigated the effect of the amount of cation salts such as sodium chloride, calcium acetate, zinc acetate and aluminum acetate on the drug delivery. The amounts of transported drugs and adsorbed metal ions were measured by HPLC(High Perfonnance Liquid Chromatography) and AAS(Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry), respectively. The addition of zinc acetate and aluminum acetate greatly enhanced the delivery of lidocaine. The detection of two metal ions by AAS seemed to support the idea that the astringency effect of these ions were the main reason for the enhancement of transdermal delivery.

Effects of iron compounds in known biomimetic oxidation systems (Gif IV and GoAgg II) have been studied on activity and ketone/alcohol selectivity of cyclohexane oxidation. Both ketone/alcohol ratio and cyclohexane conversion were affected by counter-ion Z of iron compounds Z-Fe. When Z has a more electron withdrawing property, the reactivity is increased and the formation of ketone is favored. From these experimental results, a new mechanism is proposed for the biomimetic oxidation system.

A novel and simple method of luminescence enhancement effect for the determination of trace amounts of bile acid was proposed. The procedure was based on the luminescence intensity of the balofloxacin-europium(III) complex that could be strongly enhanced by bile acid in the presence of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). Under the optimum conditions, the enhanced luminescence intensity of the system exhibited a good linear relationship with the bile acid concentration in the range $5.0{\times}10^{-9}-7.0{\times}10^{-7}\;mol\;L^{-1}$ with a detection limit of $1.3{\times}10^{-9}\;mol\;L^{-1}$ ($3{\sigma}$). The relative standard deviation (RSD) was 1.7% (n = 11) for $5.0{\times}10^{-8}\;mol\;L^{-1}$ bile acid. The applicability of the method to the determination of bile acid was demonstrated by investigating the effect of potential interferences and by analyzing human serum and urine samples. The possible enhancement mechanism of luminescence intensity in balofloxacin-europium(III)-bile acid-SDBS system was also discussed briefly.

Solution processed IGO thin films were prepared using a general chemical solution route by spin coating. The effect of the annealing temperature of IGO thin films based on the ratio of 2:1 of indium to gallium on crystallization was investigated with varying annealing temperature from $300^{\circ}C$ to $600^{\circ}C$. The electronic device characteristic of IGO thin film was investigated. The solution-processed IGO TFTs annealed at 300 and $600^{\circ}C$ in air for 1 h exhibited good electronic performances with field effect mobilities as high as 0.34 and 3.83 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, respectively. The on/off ratio of the IGO TFT in this work was $10^5$ with 98% transmittance.

A novel Cu-Co-O composite nanocatalyst was designed and prepared for the ozonation of phenol. A synergistic effect of copper and cobalt was observed over the Cu-Co-O composite nanocatalyst, which showed higher activity than either copper or cobalt oxide alone. In addition, the Cu-Co-O composite revealed good activity in a wide initial pH range (4.11-8.05) of water. The fine dispersion of cobalt on the surface of copper oxide boosted the interaction between catalyst and ozone, and the surface Lewis acid sites on the Cu-Co-O composite were determined as the active sites. The Raman spectroscopy also proved that the Cu-Co-O composite was quite sensitive to the ozone. The trivalent cobalt in the Cu-Co-O composite was proposed as the valid state.
