Various structures of vacancy defects in graphene layers and carbon nanotubes have been reported by high resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) and those arouse an interest of reconstruction processes of vacancy defects. In this talk, we present reconstruction processes of vacancy defects in a graphene and a carbon nanotube by tight-binding molecular dynamics (TBMD) simulations and by first principles total energy calculations. We found that a structure of a dislocation defect with two pentagon-heptagon (5-7) pairs in graphene becomes more stable than other structures when the number of vacancy units is ten and over. The simulation study of scanning tunneling microscopy reveals that the pentagon-heptagon pair defects perturb the wavefunction of electrons near Fermi level to produce the $\sqrt{3}\;{\times}\;\sqrt{3}$ superlattice pattern, which is in excellent agreement with experiment. It is also observed in our tight-binding molecular dynamics simulation that 5-7 pair defects play a very important role in vacancy reconstruction in a graphene layer and carbon nanotubes.

A non-contact, in-situ and non-invasive technique for health monitoring of submerged fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) laminates has been developed using ultrasonic guided waves. A pair of mobile transducers at specific angles of incidence to the submerged FRP specimen was used to excite Lamb wave modes. Lamb wave modes were used for comprehensive inspection of various types of manufacturing defects like air gaps and missing epoxy, introduced during manufacturing of FRP using Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion Molding (VARIM). Further service induced damages like notches and surface defects were also studied and evaluated using guided waves. Quantitative evaluation of transmitted ultrasonic signal in defect ridden FRPs $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ healthy signal has been used to relate the extent of damage in FRPs. The developed technique has the potential to develop into a quick, real time health monitoring tool for judging the service worthiness of FRPs.

The defects occurred in knitted fabrics have several types due to some trouble sources. In particular, the defects caused by knitting machine troubles give a serious damage to the whole webs. It is, therefore, necessary to discriminate the kind of defects. The method to discriminate the type and size of defects has been proposed, which is used a pair of narrow band eliminating spatial filters. This method is based upon an isotropic signal processing in time domain. This paper is to confirm that the proposed method can be useful in the discrimination of defects, having analyzed in spatial frequency domain.

This paper describes a machine vision algorithm for inspecting a crimpled terminal. The crimpled terminal is one of wire harness assemblies which transmit current or signals between a pair of electrical or electronic assemblies. The major defect considered is wire exposure on wire barrels. To detect the wire exposure, we develope a multi-layer perceptron in which three features extracted from the image of the crimpled terminal are used as input data. The three features are edginess, variance, and total number of valley points(TVP). The multi-layer neural network has been successfully tested on a number of real specimens collected from a wire-harness factory.

ZnO is a promising material to make high efficient ultraviolet(UV) or blue light emitting diodes(LEDs) because of its large binding energy and energy bandgap. In this study, we prepared ZnO thin films with p-type conductivity on silicon(100) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering in the mixture of $N_2$ and $O_2$. The process was accompanied by low pressure in-situ annealing in $O_2$ at $600^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ respectively. Hall effect in Van der Pauw configuration showed that the N-doped ZnO film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ has p-type conductivity. Photoluminescence(PL) spectrum of the film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ showed UV emission related to exciton and bound to donor-acceptor pair(DAP) as well as visible emission related to many intrinsic defects.

Sb에 기초한 응력 초격자 적외선검출소자의 구성 물질인 도핑하지 않은 기판 GaSb 결정과 GaSb/SI-GaAs 박막에 잔존하고 있는 진성결함 (intrinsic defect)을 비교 조사하였다. 상온 근처 (250 K)까지 광여기 발광 (PL)을 보이는 GaSb 결정에서의 발광 에너지의 온도의존성으로부터, 밴드갭 에너지에 관한 경험식인 Varshni 함수의 파라미터 ($E_o$, $\alpha$, $\beta$)를 결정하였다. GaAs 기판 위에 성장된 이종 GaSb 박막에서는 GaSb 주요 진성결함으로 알려져 있는 29 meV의 이온화 에너지를 가지는 위치반전 (antisite) Ga ([$Ga_{Sb}$]) 결함과 함께 위치반전 Sb ([$Sb_{Ga}$])와의 복합결함 ([$Ga_{Sb}-Sb_{Ga}$])과 관련된 것으로 분석된 732/711 meV의 한 쌍의 깊은준위 (deep level)가 관측되었다. PL의 온도 및 여기출력 의존성을 분석하여, Sb-rich상태에서 성장된 GaSb 박막에서는 잉여 Sb의 자발확산 (self-diffusion)에 의하여 치환된 위치전도 [$Ga_{Sb}$] 및 [$Sb_{Ga}$]가 결합하여 [$Ga_{Sb}-Sb_{Ga}$]의 깊은준위를 형성하는 것으로 해석되었다.

The urea cycle, consisting of a series of six enzymatic reactions, plays key roles to prevent the accumulation of toxic nitrogenous compound and synthesize arginine de novo. Five well characterized diseases have been described, resulting from an enzymatic defect in the biosynthesis of one of the normally expressed enzyme. This presentation will focus on two representative diseases; ornithine transcarbamylase(OTC) deficiency and citrullinemia(argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency). OTC deficiency is one of the most common inborn error of urea cycle, which is inherited in X-linked manner. We identified 17 different mutations in 20 unrelated Korean patients with OTC deficiency; L9X, R26P, R26X, T44I, R92X, G100R, R141Q, G195R, M205T, H214Y, D249G, R277W, F281S, 853 del C, R320X, V323M and 10 bp del at nt. 796-805. These mutations occur at well conserved nucleotide sequences across species or CpG hot spot. The L9X and R26X lead to the disruption of leader sequences, required for directing mitochondrial localization of the OTC precursor. Their phenotypes are severe, and neonatal onset. The G100R, R277W and V323M mutations were uniquely identified in patients with late onset OTC deficiency. The other genotypes are associated with neonatal onset. Out of 20 patients with OTC deficiency, only 6 patients are alive; two were liver transplanted, and normal in growth and development at 2, 4 years after transplantation respectively. Citrullinemia is an autosomal recessive disease, caused by the mutations in the argininosuccinate synthetase(ASS) gene. We identified in 3 major mutations in 11 unrelated Korean patients with citrullinemia; G324S, $IVS6^{-2}$ A to G, and 67 bp ins at nt 1125-1126. Among these, the 67 base pair insertion mutation is novel. The allele frequency of each mutation is; G324S(45%), IVS6-2 A to G(32%), and 67 base pair insertion(14%). All patients are diagnosed at neonatal or infantile age. Interestingly, two patients presented with stroke like episode. Out of 11 patients, 5 patients died. Among 6 patients alive, one patient was successfully liver transplanted.

Clone PERV-C (A3) env was isolated from the genomic DNA of domestic pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) in Korea to investigate the molecular properties of PERV-C. The nucleic acid homologies between the PERV-MSL (type C) reference and the PERV-C(A3) clone was 99% for env, but a single base pair deletion was found in the transmembrane (TM) region of the env open reading frame. To examine the functional characteristics of truncated PERV-C env, we constructed a replication-incompetent retroviral vector by replacing the env gene of the pCL-Eco retrovirus vector with PERV-C env. A retroviral vector bearing PERV-C/A chimeric envelopes was also created to complement the TM defect. Our results indicated that truncated PERV-C env was not infectious in human cells as expected. Interestingly, however, the vector with the PERV-C/A envelope was able to infect 293 cells. This observation suggests that recombination within PERV-C TM could render PERV-C infectious in humans. To further characterize PERV-C/A envelopes, we constructed an infectious molecular clone by using a PCR-based technique. This infectious molecular clone will be useful to examine more specific regions that are critical for human cell tropism.

Carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) composite laminates often possess strong in-plane elastic anisotropy attributable to the fiber orientation and layup sequence. The layup orientation thus greatly influences its properties in a composite laminate. It could result in the part being rejected or discarded if the layup orientation of a ply is misaligned. A nondestructive technique would be very beneficial, which could be used to test the part after curing and to require less time than the optical test. In this paper, ultrasonic scanners were set out for different measurement modalities for acquiring ultrasonic signals as a function of in-plane azimuthal angle. The motorized scanner was built first for making transmission measurements using a pair of normal-incidence shear wave transducers. Another scanner was then built fer the acousto-ultrasonic configuration using contact transducers. A ply-by-ply vector decomposition model has been developed, simplified, and implemented for composite laminates fabricated from unidirectional plies. We have compared the test results with model data. It is found that strong agreement are shown between tests and the model developed in characterizing cured layups of the laminates.
