Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the interrelationship between eye movement and auditory function through the effects of eye lateralization on transient evoked otoacoustic emissions of auditory function. Methods : 25 subjects with complete set of ears were used in this study, which composed of 12 males and 13 females with pure tone threshold of below 25 dB without otolaryngology were evaluated. Each of the patient has a visual acuity of greater than 1.0 after correction, and has no problems with eye disease, eye movement, and human parallel system. In a dark silent room, the subjects sat on a chair with their heads fixed on a headrest. The tests were performed by asking the patients to look at a fixed red light dot on a light bar in front of them. This light was directed to the front, right and left sides of the subject at an angle of 40 ° In the presence of the stimulus sound in the ipsilateral ear, the transient evoked otoacoustic emissions of the ipsilateral ear was measured at the straight, right and left fixation. In order to evaluate the transient evoked otoacoustic emissions through the efferent auditory pathway, the transient evoked otoacoustic emission values of the contralateral ear were measured at the straight, right and left fixation. These measurements were taken at frequencies of 1 kHz, 1.4 kHz, 2.0 kHz, 2.8 kHz and 4 kHz, respectively. Results : Transient evoked otoacoustic emissions caused by lateral movement of the eye showed significant changes at 1.4 KHz and 2 KHz of the afferent pathway of the ipsilateral ear. Also, significant changes were observed at 1.4 KHz and 4 KHz of the efferent pathway of the contralateral ear. Conclusion : These results indicated that there is a close relationship between eye movement and auditory cochlea. In the future, further studies considering more diverse subjects and age groups will be needed.

Glucose fed-batch culture was studied to improve cellulose productivity by Acetobacter xylinum BRC5. When initial glucose concentrations in batch cultures were less than 20 g/L, yield coefficients of cellulose (Yp/s) remained a constant value of 0.21 g cellulose/g glucose. But a low yield coefficient, Yp/s=0.13 was obtained from an initial glucose concentration of 40 g/L. Since initial high glucose concentrations in batch culture resulted in low yields of cellulose, constant fed-batch cultures were carried out. The optimal feed rate for fed-batch culture was 2.22 g glucose/L.h. In constant fed-batch culture without DO control, 10 g/L of cellulose was obtained from 40 g/L of glucose with this feed rate, which was approximately two fold higher than that of the batch culture with the same initial glucose concentration. In DO stat plus fed-batch culture, the highest cellulose productivity could be obtained when dissolved oxygen level was controlled at 10% of air saturation, and cellulose productivity increased about 1.5 times compared with that of the culture without DO control.

Purpose: This study was conducted to research effects of influence factors on stereopsis of induced aniseikonia in emmetropia. Methods: 20 college students (a mean age of $22.50{\pm}2.72$ years, 14 males, 6 females) were selected as subjects and all of them had no ocular disease or systemic disease, the refractive correction of spherical equivalent within ${\pm}0.50$ D, the corrected visual acuity of 1.0 or better and the aniseikonia values less than 1% by AWAYA. Subject's dominant eye was checked by Hole in card method and contact lenses of -7.00 ~ +7.00D were fitted to cause anisometropia in dominant eye or non-dominant eye, respectively. And then aniseikonia was induced with spectacles to correct refractive error by contact lenses. Stereopsis was measured by Random Dot Stereo Acuity Test with LEA symbols$^{(R)}$ (Vision Assessment Corporation$^{TM}$, USA). Results: Stereopsis was remarkably reduced by inducing aniseikonia, with induced aniseikonia in dominant eye, with higher diopter of wearing contact lenses to induce anisometropia, with spectacles lenses correction of minus power after fitting contact lenses with plus power and in case of men. Conclusions: It should be considered to correct anisometropia that aniseikonia could cause reduction of stereopsis.

Using mRNA differential display technique, we investigated differential gene expression in hybrids relative to their parents in a diallel cross involving four chicken breeds in order to provide an insight into the molecular basis of heterosis in chicken. The results indicated that there was extensive differential gene expression between chicken F1 hybrids and their parents which was classified into four kinds of patterns as following: (1) bands only detected in hybrid F1; (2) bands only absent in hybrid F1; (3) bands only detected in parent P1 or P2; (4) bands absent in parent P1 or P2. Forty-two differentially expressed cDNAs were cloned and sequenced, and their expression patterns were confirmed by Reverse-Northern dot blot. Sequence analysis and database searches revealed that genes showed differential expression between hybrid and parents were regulatory and functional genes involved in metabolism, mRNA splicing, transcriptional regulation, cell cycles and protein modification. These results indicated that hybridization between two parents can cause changes in expression of a variety of genes. In conclusion, that the altered pattern of gene expression in hybrids may be responsible for heterosis in chickens.

The DOTIFS is a new multi-object Integral Field Spectrograph (IFS) planned to be designed and built by the Inter-University Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Pune, India, (IUCAA) for cassegrain side port of the 3.6m Devasthal Optical Telescope (DOT) being constructed by the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences, Nainital. (ARIES) It is a multi-integral field unit (IFU) spectrograph which has 370-740nm wavelength coverage with spectral resolution R~1200-2400. Sixteen IFUs with microlens arrays and fibers can be deployed on 8 arcmin field. Each IFU has $8.7^{{\prime}{\prime}}{\times}7.4^{{\prime}{\prime}}$ field of view with 144 spaxel elements. 2304 fibers coming from IFUs are dispersed by eight identical spectrographs with all refractive and all spherical optics. In this work, we show optical design of the DOTIFS spectrograph. Expected performance and result of tolerance and thermal analysis are also shown. The optics is comprised of f=520mm collimator, broadband filter, dispersion element and f=195mm camera. Pupil size is determined as 130mm from spectral resolution and budget requirements. To maintain good transmission down to 370nm, calcium fluoride elements and high transmission optical glasses have been used. Volume Phase Holographic grating is selected as a dispersion element to maximize the grating efficiency and to minimize the size of the optics. Detailed optics design report had been documented. The design was finalized through optical design review and now ready for order optics.

Today's complicated society with a rapid change needs more objective and accurate data for the better managerical decisions and the prospect for the future other than the intuition or subjective experience by men themselves. These data can't be extracted without the analysis of actual data by a n.0, pplying any of mathematical techniques. One of these mathematical techniques, called bibliometrics has been newly developed in the field of library and information science to extract the objective data for the better services through the library operations. The Beadford's Law, one important law in bibliometrics has provided rather scientific and objective basis on the more valid building of library collection within the constraints of budget. The purpose of the study is to investigate the theory of the Bradford's Law, to clarify the possible areas of its a n.0, pplication, and to discern some problems in doing so. The results of the study can be summarized as follows; (1) There is certain difference between the graphical formulation and verbal formulation of Bradford's Law. But this law is very useful for the field of library and information science, owing to the flexibility of the a n.0, pplication of the law in the field. (2) The minimal nucleus can consist of a single periodical only if j, the number of relevant papers in the most productive journals is greater than Z/2. On the other hand, if j is less than or equal to Z/2, then the minimal nucleus will consist of 2 or more periodicals. (3) It is possible to design the most compact selection of scientific periodicals covering any specified percentage P among the total periodicals by using the formulation, log n=Plog N+(1-P)logs, or Nlog N/s=P center dot N log N/s. (4) If there is need to provide all the articles needed by users the given budget, the library can purchase the proper number of journals, by using the formulation, f center dot AN=An+PN (log N/s-logn/s). (5) In the building of the library collection based on the decreasing ratio of use, the library can subscribe to the proper number of journals according to the satisfactory degree of the need, by using the formulation, f=Nu+uNlogN/S-uNlogn/s / nNlogN/s = 1+logN/m /logN/s (6) If the order of valuable journals is decided according to the frequency of being cited, the order can't always represent the value. (7) The evaluation criteria for the journals with high value, but less cited should be made a further study.

Laser direct patterning of the coated photoresist (PMER-NSG31B) layer was studied to make halftone dots on the gravure printing roll. The selective laser hardening of the photoresist by Ar-ion laser(wavelength: 333.6∼363.8 nm) was controlled by the A/O modulator. The coating thickness in the range of 5∼11㎛ could be obtained by using the up-down directional moving device along the vertically located roll. The width, thickness and hardness of the hardened lines farmed under the laser power of 200∼260mW and irradiation time of 4.4∼6.6 $\mu$ sec/point were investigated after developing. The hardened width increased as the coating thickness increased. Though the hardened thickness was changed due to the effect of the developing solution, the hardened layer showed good resistance to the scratching of 2H pencil. Also, the hardened minimum line width of 10㎛ could be obtained. The change of line width was also found after etching, and the minimum line widths of 6㎛ could be obtained. The hardened lines showed the good resistance to the etching solution. Finally, the experimental data could be applied to make gravure halftone dots using the developed imaging process, successfully.

This paper presents an adaptive back propagation algorithm that update the learning parameter by the generated error, adaptively and configuration of the range for the initial connecting weight according to the different maximum target value from minimum target value. This algorithm is expected to escaping from the local minimum and make the best environment for the convergence. On the simulation tested this algorithm on three learning pattern. The first was 3-parity problem learning, the second was $7{\times}5$ dot alphabetic font learning and the third was handwritten primitive strokes learning. In three examples, the probability of becoming trapped in local minimum was reduce. Furthermore, in the alphabetic font and handwritten primitive strokes learning, the neural network enhanced to loaming efficient about 27%~57.2% for the standard back propagation(SBP).

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 넓은 시야각, 얇은 두께의 특성으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자기술로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 특히 높은 색순도와 고효율의 장점을 가지는 양자점을 사용한 유기발광소자에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 양자점을 이용한 유기발광소자는 용액 공정이 요구 되기 때문에 유기물 박막 위에 양자점을 균일하게 도포하기 어렵다. 또한, 양자점은 수분과 산소에 빠르게 열화되는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 고분자 poly (N-vibylcarbazole) 정공수송층을 용액공정으로 형성한 후 발광층, 전자 수송 및 주입층과 음극을 차례로 진공증착하여 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 정공수송층을 적용한 청색 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 색변환양자점과 청색 발광층으로 a 1,4-bis (2,2-diphenylvinyl) biphenyl를 사용하여 제작된 유기발광 소자의 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 색변환 양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자의 경우 정공이 양자점에 포획되는 확률이 낮기 때문에 높은 전류밀도와 휘도를 나타냈으며, core/shell 색변환 양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자는 정공이 양자점에 포획되는 확률이 높기 때문에 낮은 전류밀도와 휘도를 나타냈다. 한편, core/shell 색변환양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자의 경우 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 청색 유기발광소자에 비해 발광층에서 발광된 빛을 잘 흡수하여 높은 색변환 효율이 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 양자점을 색변환층으로 사용한 청색 유기발광소자의 색변환 효율 증가와 발광효율 향상에 대한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다.
