  • To date, more than 150 exo-solar planets have been observed by various methods such as spectroscopic, photometric, astrometric, gravitational lensing, pulsar timing methods. However, all these are indirect methods; they do not directly image the planets. Only free-floating planets or their 'ana-log' have been directly detected so far. Thus the next milestone is the direct imaging of any kinds of planetary mass objects orbiting around normal (young) stars, which might have been associated with protoplanetary disks, the sites of planet formation. I will describe some SUBARU efforts to detect self-luminous young giant planets as companions as well as direct imaging of the protoplanetary disks of ${\~}$100 AU size. The results of near-infrared coronagraphic imaging with adaptive optics are briefly presented on AB Aur, HD 142527, T Tau, and DH Tau. Our results demonstrate the importance of high-resolution (${\~}$0.1 arcsec) direct imaging over indirect observations such as modeling based on spectral energy distributions. The SUBARU observations are a prelude to ALMA from the morphological point of view.

  • A Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12 isolated by 4-cholrobiphenyl enrichment culture technique is capable of utilizing 4-hydroxybenzoic acid as a sole source of carbon and energy. The bacterium catabolized 4-hydroxybenzoic acid through the intermediate formation of protocatechuic acid, which was further metabolized. The cell free extracts of pseudomonas sp. DJ-12, grown on 4-hydroxybenzoic acid showed higher activities of 4-hydroxyenzoate 3-hydroxylase and protocatechuate 4,5-dioxygenase, but the activity of catechnol 2,3-dioxygenase was lower. The results suggest that 4-hydroxybenzoic acid is catabolized via protocatechuic acid rather than catechol or gentisic acid in this bacterium and that the protocatechuic acid formed was metabolized through a metacleavage pathway by protocatechuate 4,5-dioxygenase.

  • The Mg-loss of AlSi 7% melts containing from 0 to 0.8% Mg during the Hexachloroethane tablet degassing was investigated. The results of the experiment was discussed in view of the free energy change and kinetics of $MgCl_2$ formation. The melts with Mg content less than 0.5% showed a Mg-loss proportional to Mg-content, while it was constant at about 24% of the weight of tablets, when Mg content of the melt became more than 0.5 %. The rate of Mg-loss was drastically reduced, when the amount of tablets used at a time increased ver a certain limit for a given melt quantity.

  • In this paper, novel device structures in order to realize ultra fast and ultra small silicon devices are investigated using ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition(UHVCVD) and Excimer Laser Annealing (ELA). Based on these fundamental technologies for the deep sub-micron device, high speed and low power devices can be fabricated. These junction formation technologies based on damage-free process for replacing of low energy ion implantation involve solid phase diffusion and vapor phase diffusion. As a result, ultra shallow junction depths by ELA are analyzed to 10~20nm for arsenic dosage(2${\times}$10$\_$14//$\textrm{cm}^2$), exciter laser source(λ=248nm) is KrF, and sheet resistances are measured to 1k$\Omega$/$\square$ at junction depth of 15nm and realized sub-50nm n-MOSFET.

  • Poly(${\varepsilon}-caprolactone$) (PCL) is a highly crystalline polymer that is miscible with several amorphous polymers including chlorinated polyether, poly(vinylchloride), poly(hydroxyether) and Bisphenol A polycarbonate. The crystallization behavior of miscible blend of amorphous/crystalline polymers has widely been studied. Generally a depression of the crystallization ability has been found with addition of amorphous component because of the reduction of chain mobility, the change of free energy of nucleation as a result of a specific interaction, and so on [1]. In this work, for the first time, the blend of PCL and copolymer of polyurethane containing polycaprolactone as a soft segment is considered. The structural similarity of TPU soft segment with PCL affects on formation of the miscible component and crystallization behavior of PCL in the blend. This has been studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Wide-angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS).

  • The nucleophilic substitution reactions of bis(Y-aryl) chlorothiophosphates (1) with X-pyridines are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at $35.0^{\circ}C$. The free energy relationships with both X and Y are biphasic concave upwards with a break point at X = 3-Ph and Y = H, respectively. The sign of cross-interaction constants (CICs; ${\rho}_{XY}$) is positive with all X and Y. Proposed mechanism is a stepwise process with a rate-limiting leaving group departure from the intermediate with all X and Y. The kinetic results of 1 are compared with those of Y-aryl phenyl chlorothiophosphates (2). In the case of Y = electron-withdrawing groups, the cross-interaction between Y and Y, due to additional substituent Y, is significant enough to change the sign of ${\rho}_{XY}$ from negative with 2 to positive with 1, indicative of the change of mechanism from a rate-limiting bond formation to bond breaking.

  • This study deals with the catalyst free radio frequency plasma assisted polymerization of ethylene glycol using nitrogen as reactive gas to modify the surface chemistry and morphology. The deposited film was characterized through various analysis techniques i.e. surface profilometry, Forier transform infrared spectroscopy, water contact angle and UV-visible spectroscopy to analyze film thickness, chemical structure, surface energy and optical properties respectively. The surface topography was analyzed by Atomic force microscopy. It was observed that the ethylene oxide behaviour and optical transmittance of the film were reduced with the introduction of nitrogen gas due to higher fragmentation of monomer. However the hydrophilic behavior of the film improved due to formation of new water loving functional groups suitable for biomedical applications.

  • Bi-2212 and Bi-2223 thin films are prepared by IBS(ion beam sputtering) technique. Three phases of Bi-2201, Bi-2212 and Bi-2223 appear as stable ones in spite of the conditions for thin film fabrication of Bi-2212 and Bi-2223 compositions, depending on substrate temperature(Tsub) and ozone pressure(PO3). It is found out that these phases show similar Tsub and PO3 dependence, and that the stable regions of these phases are limited within very narrow temperature.

  • We have studied the folding mechanism of $\beta$ -hairpins in the proteins 1GB1, 3AIT and 1A2P by conducting unfolding simulations at moderately high temperatures. The analysis of trajectories obtained from molecular dynamics simulations in explicit aqueous solution suggests that the positions of the hydrophobic core residues lead to subtle differences in the details of folding dynamics. However, the folding of three different hairpins can be explained by a unified mechanism that is a blend of the hydrogen-bond-centric and the hydrophobiccentric models. The initial stage of $\beta$-hairpin folding involves various partially folded intermediate structures which are stabilized by both the van der Waals interactions of hydrophobic core residues and the electrostatic interactions of non-native hydrogen bonds. The native structure is obtained by forming native contacts in the final tune-up process. Depending on the relative positions of the hydrophobic residues, the actual mechanism of hairpi n folding may or may not exhibit well-defined intermediates.
