Several aspects of polymer dispersed liquid crystal(PDLC) film properties make them interesting for display application. Most versions of PDLC materials are able to modulate light without the use of polarizers, which offers advantages in optical throughput(brightness) and viewing angle compared to polarizer-based display. In this papers, we attemped to doe minimum of remaining liquid crystals at polymer network for the liquid crystal-polymer composite (LCPC) films. In results, best phase separation behaviors turned out liquid crystal/monomer/oligomer mixture system.

We report several difluoro isothiocyanato tolane-based liquid crystal (LC) singles having a high optical birefringence. Several eutectic mixtures are formulatd using these LC singles exhibiting a wide nematic phase range and high birefringence. We will report the physical properties of and photochemical stability of these new eutectic mixtures.

Liquid crystal (LC) devices can be operated as amplitude modulators and phase modulators. They usually require two polarizers; therefore the optical efficiency is limited. We introduce two general principles of polarization-free liquid crystal devices and also show several LC devices by applying the principles.

ε-Ga₂O₃ thin films were grown on 4H-SiC substrates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and crystalline quality were evaluated depend on growth conditions. It was found that the best conditions of the ε-Ga₂O₃ were grown at a growth temperature of 665℃ and an oxygen flow rate of 200 sccm. Two-dimensional growth was completed after the merge of hexagonal nuclei, and the arrangement direction of hexagonal nuclei was closely related to the crystal direction of the substrate. However, it was confirmed that crystal structure of the ε-Ga₂O₃ had an orthorhombic rather than hexagonal. Crystal phase transformation was performed by thermal treatment. And a β-Ga₂O₃ thin film was grown directly on 4H-SiC for the comparison to the phase transformed β-Ga₂O₃ thin film. The phase transformed β-Ga₂O₃ film showed better crystal quality than directly grown one.

Decolorizing characteristics of crystal violet by Enterobacter cloace MG82, which can decolorize rapidly triphenylmethane dyes, were investigated. The higher growth and decolorization activity was shown at big ratio of dissolved oxygen in the medium. The decolorization activity of crystal violet revealed highest at the middle of lag phase. As the concentration of crystal violet was higher, the growth of E. cloacae MG82 and decolorizing activity of crystal violet by this strain were worse. The maximum concentration of crystal violet at which E. cloacae MG82 be able to grow was 375 ${\mu}$M. E. cloacae MG82 was not able to use the crystal violet itself as a sole carbon source. So, it was shown that growth of E. cloacae MG82 and decolorization activity of crystal violet by this strain needed addition of another energy sources except this dye.

Many concepts of external magnetic field applications in crystal growth processes have been developed to control melt convection, impurity content and growing interface shape. Especially, travelling magnetic fields (TMF) are of certain advantages. However, strong shielding effects appear when the TMF coils are placed outside the growth vessel. To achieve a solution of industrial relevance within the framework of the $KRISTMAG^{(R)}$ project inner heater-magnet modules(HMM) for simultaneous generation of temperature and magnetic field have been developed. At the same time, as the temperature is controlled as usual, e.g. by DC, the characteristics of the magnetic field can be adjusted via frequency, phase shift of the alternating current (AC) and by changing the amplitude via the AC/DC ratio. Global modelling and dummy measurements were used to optimize and validate the HMM configuration and process parameters. GaAs and Ge single crystals with improved parameters were grown in HMM-equipped industrial liquid encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) puller and commercial vertical gradient freeze (VGF) furnace, respectively. The vapour pressure controlled Czochralski (VCz) variant without boric oxide encapsulation was used to study the movement of floating particles by the TMF-driven vortices.

By the floating zone method with infrared radiation convergence type heater homogeneously $Cr^{3+}$ doped alu-mina single crystal was obtained. And sizx {1010} facets appeared at the surface of [0001] grown crystals. $ZrO_2$ and $HfO_2$ precipitated as secondary phase and were not doped in the crystals. We found that the dist-ribution of the secondary phase which was mainly located at the surface and the peripheral region was closely related to the flow pattern of melt zone.

We synthesized $(La,\;Sr)MnO_{3+{\delta}$ as a cathode for SOFC by glycine nitrate process(GNP) and knew the different properties of $(La_{1-x}Sr_x)MnO_3$ by using nitrate solution and oxide solution as starting material. In case of using nitrate solution as a starting material, main crystal phase peak of $LaMnO_3$ increased as Sr content added up and a peak of $Sr_2MnO_4\;and\;La_2O_3$ was showed as a secondary phase. We added Mn excess to control a crystal phase. In this case, the electrical conductivity had a high value 210.3S/cm at $700^{\circ}C$ On the other side, when we used oxide solution as a starting material, we found main crystal phase of $LnMnO_3$ to increase as Sr content added up and a peak of $La_2O_3$ as a secondary phase. Similary, we added Mn excess to control a crystal phase in this case. We knew $(La,\;Sr)MnO_3$ powder to sinter well and the electrical conductivity of the sintered body at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs was 152.7s/cm at $700^{\circ}C$. The sintered $(La,\;Sr)MnO_3$ powder at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs got the deoxidization peak, depending on the temperature md in case of using nitrate solution as a start ing material the deoxidization peak was showed at $450^{\circ}C$ which is lower than used a oxide solution as a starting material. As a result, when $(La,\;Sr)MnO_3$ powder was synthesized to add Mn excess and to use nitrate solution as a starting material, we found it to have the higher deoxidization property and considered it as a cathode for m properly. And we found it to have different electrical conduct ivity the synthesized $(La,\;Sr)MnO_3$ powder by using different start ing materials like nitrate solution and oxide solution which influence a sintering density and crystal phase.

The 23 wt% polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/15 wt% polyurethane (PU) fibers were electrospun using the conjugated nozzle at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/h and an electric field of 1 kV/cm. The formation of ${\beta}$ crystal phase in the PVDF and the PVDF/PU fibers was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. After electrospinning, the asspun fibers were immersed in a boiling water and then dried at $100^{\circ}C$ in a convection oven to make a crimp phenomenon. The crimps with a diameter of $2.0{\pm}0.08{\mu}m$ were observed for the PVDF/PU fibers after hydrothermal treatment without sacrificing the extent of ${\beta}$ crystal phase. All the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers exhibited average cell viability of more than 98 %. The cell proliferation results suggested that L-929 cells adhered well to the PU, PVDF and PVDF/PU fibers and proliferated continuously with increasing time, indicating that the PVDF/PU fibers are highly applicable to the biomedical applications.
