The effects of the iron ions for the light-induced mitochondrial $F_0F_1-ATPase$ of Lentinus edodes was studied. The enzyme activity was stimulated up to 202% by 0.1 mM $Fe^{2-}$ ion, but was inhibited by $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Mg^{2+}$. In the presence of 0.5 mM $Mg^{2+}$, the activity also increased 32% by 0.1 mM $Fe^{2+}$ ion, and decreased to a similar extent by $Fe^{3+}$ ion than by only $Fe^{3+}$ ion. Also, the activity was inhibited 53% by 5.0 mM $Fe^{2-}$ ion in the presence of 0.5 mM $Mg^{2+}$ ion and various concentration of $Fe^{3+}$ ion(mM). These results showed that $Fe^{2+}$ strongly stimulated the enzyme activity and its role for the enzyme was independent of $Mg^{2+}$ ion, but was dependent of $Fe^{3+}$ ion. From inactivation of the enzyme by addition of metal chelating agent, EDTA, it is suggested that the enzyme is to be metalloenzyme. The optimal pH and temperature of the enzyme in the presence of 0.1 mM $Fe^{2+}$ was 7.6 and $63^{\circ}C$, respectively.

This study was performed to investigate the separation of cesium cations by using an electrochemical ion exchanger of nickel hexacyanoferrate($KNiFe(CN)_6$) film electrode. Potential, current, and charge passing through the cyclic voltammograms were measured in singular and binary solutions of 1.0M $NaNO_3$ and 1.0M $CsNO_3$. Before and after each experiment, the structural morphology and atomic composition of $KNiFe(CN)_6$ were analyzed by SEM and EDS, respectively. The ion selectivity of $KNiFe(CN)_6$ was also observed by the voltammograms and atomic compositions measured in the solution alternated between sodium and cesium. As the result of this study, it was found that the electrically switched $KNiFe(CN)_6$ ion exchanger had the significant advantage of 40 times or longer durability than conventional organic or inorganic ion exchanger. It was also shown that the $KNiFe(CN)_6$ ion exchanger had high selectivity for cesium over sodium.

The nonstoichiometric perovskite solid solutions of the $Nd_{1-x}Sr_xFeO_{3-y}$ system for the compositions of x=0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 have been prepared at $1150^{\circ}C$ in the air pressure. The compound of x=0.00, NdFe$O_{3.0}$, contains only $Fe^{3+}$ ion in octahedral site and the others involves the mixed valence state between $Fe^{3+}$ and $Fe^{4+}$ ions. The mole ratio of $Fe^{4+}$ ion or the ${\tau}$-value increases steadily with the x-value and then is maximized at the compositionof x= 1.00. The nonstoichiometric chemical formulas of the system are formulated from the x, ${\tau}$ and y values. From the Mossbauer spectroscopy, the isomer shift of $Fe^{3+}$ ion decreases with the increasing x-value, which is induced by the electron transfer between the$Fe^{3+}$ and $Fe^{4+}$ ions. The transfer is made possible by the indirect interaction between $Fe^{3+}$ and$Fe^{4+}$ ions via the oxygen ion. The eg electrons of the$Fe^{3+}$ ions are delocalized over all the Fe ions. Due to the electron transfer, the activation energy of electrical conductivity is decrease with the increasing amount of $Fe^{4+}$ ion.

We have studied diffusion behavior of NiFe/Ag bilayer deposited by on silicon Ion Beam Sputtering methods. The diffusion behavior of NiFe and Ag in NiFe/Ag thin film is analyzed by Medium Energy Ion Scattering Spectroscopy. For samples without Ta underlayer, silicides such as Ni-Si or Fe-Si were formed at Si substrate and NiFe interface. In contrast, Ag predominantly diffused into the NiFe layer probably through their grain boundaries for Ta underlayered samples.

The reaction of FeC5H5+ ion with ferrocene molecule is investigated using FT-ICR mass spectrometry. FeC5H5+ ions are generated by dissociative ionization of ferrocenes using an electron beam. The reaction gives rise to the formation of the adduct ion, Fe2(C5H5)3+, in competition with charge transfer reaction leading to the formation of ferrocene molecular ion, Fe(C5H5)2+·. The branching ratio of the adduct ion increases as the internal energy of the reactant ion decreases and correspondingly the branching ratio for the charge transfer reaction product decreases. The observed rate of the addition reaction channel is slower than that of the charge transfer reaction. The observation of the stable adduct ions in the low-pressure ICR cell is attributed to the radiative cooling of the activated ion-molecule complex. The mechanism of the reaction is presented to account for the observed experimental results.

An analytical method for the spectrometric simultaneous determination of the individual ions in the mix-tures of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Fe^{2+}$ ions utilizing a technique of flow injection analysis has been developed. The method was based on the oxidation reaction between $Fe^{2+}$ ion and $H_2O_2$ in an acidic medium and the subsequent formation of a red Fe$(SCN)^{3-x}_x$ ion by the complexation reaction between $Fe^{2+}$ ion and $SCN^-$ ion. Unlike the conventional methods which require separate processes for the pre-treatment of the sample solution, the current method uses the same FIA system for the pre-treatment and the analysis of the sample. The detection limit for the determination of $Fe^{2+}$ ion was found to be 6.00${\times}10^{-7}$M.

The objectives of this study are to investigate the effect of the concentration ratios of Ni and Fe ions on crud deposition onto the fuel cladding surface in the simulated primary environments of a pressurized water reactor. Crud deposition tests were conducted in the Ni and Fe concentration ratios of 20:20 ppm, 39:1 ppm and 1:39 ppm at $325^{\circ}C$ for 14 days. In the case of the same Ni and Fe ion ratio (20:20), nickel ferrite with a polyhedral shape was formed. Nickel oxide deposits with a needle shape were formed in the condition of high Ni to Fe ion ratio (39:1), While polyhedral iron oxide and needle-like nickel oxide formed in the condition of low Ni to Fe ion ratio (1:39). The amount of deposits increased, when Fe oxides were formed. This indicates that Fe rich oxides stimulated Ni oxide deposition.

The effects of the iron ions on the light-induced mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$ in Lentinus edodes was studied. This enzyme activity was stimulated by each of the ferric, ferrous and magnesium ion. Especially, the activity of the enzyme by 5.0 mM ferric ion increased up to 107% in comparision with control group(100%). In the presence of magnesium ion, each of ferric and ferrous ion increased the activity of the enzyme, particulary, coexistence of 0.1 mM magnesium and 5.0 mM ferric ion increased the activity up to 270% with magnesium ion dependence. The activity of the enzyme was stimulated up to 268% by 5.0 mM ferric ion in the presence of 0.1 mM magnesium and 0.1 mM ferrous ion. Therefore, the coexistence of ferrous ion did not affect the activity. From the above, we propose that light-induced mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$ in Lentinus edodes is a $Mg^{2+}{\cdot}Fe^{3+}{\;}F_1-ATPase.$ The optimal pH and temperature for the enzyme were 7.5 and $66^{\circ}C$ respectively.

A $Fe_3O_4$-graphite nanofiber composite for use as an anode material was successfully synthesized by calcining $Fe_3O_4$ and graphite nanofiber (GNF) together in a $N_2$ atmosphere. Using this $Fe_3O_4$-GNF composite in a lithium ion battery resulted in a higher lithium storage capacity than that obtained using $Fe_3O_4$-graphite ($Fe_3O_4$-G). The $Fe_3O_4$-GNF (10 wt%) electrode exhibited a higher lithium ion diffusion coefficient ($2.29{\times}10^{-9}cm^2s^{-1}$) than did the $Fe_3O_4$-G (10%) ($3.17{\times}10^{-10}cm^2s^{-1}$). At a current density of $100mA\;g^{-1}$, the $Fe_3O_4$-GNF (10 wt%) anode showed a higher reversible capacity ($1,031mAh\;g^{-1}$) than did the $Fe_3O_4$-G (10%) anode ($799mAh\;g^{-1}$). Moreover, the $Fe_3O_4GNF$ electrodes showed good cycling performance without the addition of a conductive material.

Enhancement of crystallinity and exchange bias characteristics for NiFe/FeMn/NiFe trilayer with Si buffer layer fabricated by ion-beam deposition were examined. A Si buffer layer promoted (111) texture of fcc crystallities in the initial growth region of NiFe layer deposited on it. FeMn layers deposited on Si/NiFe bilayer exhibited excellent (111) crystal texture. The antiferromagnetic FeMn layer between top and bottom NiFe films with the buffer Si 50 ${\AA}$-thick induced a large exchange coupling field Hex with a different dependence. It was found that H$\sub$ex/ of the bottom and top NiFe films with Si buffer layer revealed large value of about 110 Oe and 300 Oe, respectively. In the comparison of two Ta and Si buffer layers, the NiFe/FeMn/NiFe trilayer with Si could possess larger exchange coupling field and higher crystallinity.
