단결정 a-SiC성장시 결정성장로의 감압속도가 결정 성장 속도, 결정성, 성장방향에 미치는 영향 을 고찰해 보기 위해서 승화법으로 (001)면 a-SiC 단결정 종자정위에 단결정 a-SiC를 성장시켰다. 결정성장 초기에는 성장로의 빠른 감압 속도에 따라 결정성장속도가 빨라지고 3C-SiC 다결정이 종자정위에 성장하였고, 감압속도를 느리게 한 경우에는 결정성장 속도가 느려지고 6H-SiC 단결정이 성장하였다. 초기에 단결정층이 성장하는 조건 하에서 2시간 성장후의 단면 성장 양상을 보면, 종자정 하단에서 발생하는 낙은 종자정의 연속적 인 승화 때문에 종자정과 초기의 단결정층이 소멸 되고, 종자정이 놓여있던 혹연 도가니의 바닥으로부터 연속적으로 다결정 층이 성장된 것이 관찰되었다. 그러나, 이러한 종자정의 승화 소멸은 초기 성장 후 냉각과정을 거치고 다시 승온시키는 두 단계 공정을 사용함으로써 효과적으로 억제시킬 수 있었다. 이와같은 방법으로 장시간 성장시킨 결정은 6H-HiC 단결정이었으며, (001) 방향으로 성장하였다.

Microbial reduction of hexavalent (VI) to trivalent (III) chromium decreases its toxicity by two orders of magnitude. In order to investigate the nature of Cr-reduction, Cr-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa HP014 was isolated and tested for its reduction capability. At the concentration of 0.5 mM Cr(VI), cell growth was not inhibited by the presence of Cr(VI) in a liquid medium, and Cr(VI) reduction was accompanied by ell growth. When cell-free extract was tested, the reduction of Cr(VI) showed a saturation kinetics with the maximum specific activity of 0.33 .mu.mol min$\^$-1/ mg$\^$-1/ cell protein, and an apparent K. of 1.73 mM Cr(VI). The activity required either NADH or NADPH as an electron donor. However, NADPH gave 50% as mush activity as sequently the supernatant and pelleted membrane fractions were tested for Cr(VI) reduction activity. The supernatant of the centrifugation showed almost the same Cr(VI) reduction activity as compared with that of the cell-free extract, indicating that the Cr(VI)-reducing activity of P. aeruginosa HP-14 is due to soluble enzyme. Moreover, the activity appeared to be the highest among the known activities, suggesting that the strain might be useful for remediation of Cr(VI)-contaminated sites.

KDICical substances from Artemisia scoparia were analyzed by gas chromatography. Seven phenolic compounds and thirty nine terpenoids were identified. Most abundant within each group were cinnamic acid and camphor, respectively. The KDICicals were prepared as aqueous extracts and then used for germination, growth, and chlorophyll content tests. The extracts were inhibitory to germination and seedling growth of the receptor lants. This inhibitory effect was dependent on concentration. When the effect of the aqueous extract on chlorophyll content was assayed, both chlorophylls a and b were shown to be reduced. The reduction in seedling elongation and growth in dry weight paralleled the reduction in chlorophyll concentration. These KDICical substances, including phenolic compounds and terpenoids, from Artemisia scoparia were responsible for the growth inhibition of the selected species.

This study was performed to investigate the possible effect of garlic produced in Korea on the inhibition/reduction of growth of A. parasiticus, a toxigenic strain. The effect was studied using different concentrations of freeze-dried garlic in potato-dextrose agar (PDA) and/or in yeast-extract sucrose (YES) broth at $25^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. While inhibition of the fungal growth due to increasing the concentration of garlic was observed, the more remarkable effect was observed on the ninth day. Reduction of fungal diameter as a result of addition of garlic on PDA was observed to range between 3.4% to 20.1 % while reduction of mycelial weight in YES broth ranged from 9.9% to 30.5%. The 0.5% and 1.0% concentrations of garlic significantly reduced fungal diameter in PDA on the 9th day, while 0.1 %, 0.5%, and 1.0% concentrations of garlic significantly reduced the mycelial weight in YES broth (p<0.05). Dose-response relationships were observed between the concentration of garlic and inhibition of growth both in solid culture and in liquid culture. This study indicates that garlic could be an effective inhibitor at a human consumption level of the growth of A. parasiticus. More research is needed to study the inhibitory effects of the main active component of garlic.

PbVO3 (PVO), a polar magnetic material considered as a candidate of multiferroic, has ferroelectricity along the c-axis and 2-dimensional antiferromagnetism lying in the in-plane through epitaxial growth [1,2]. PVO thin films were grown on LaAlO3 (001) substrates under reduction atmosphere from a stable Pb2V2O7 sintered target using pulsed laser deposition method. Epitaxial growth of the PVO films is possible only under Ar atmospheren with no oxygen partial pressure. X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the phase formation and texture of the films. We confirmed epitaxial growth of the PVO films with crystalline relationship of PbVO3[001]//LaAlO3[001] and PbVO3[100]//LaAlO3[100]. In addition, surface morphology of the films displays drastic changes in accordance with the growth conditions. Elongated PVO grains are related to the Pb2V2O7 pyrochlore structure. The relation between structural deformation and ferroelectricity in the PVO films was examined by local measurement of piezoresponse force microscopy.

Aflatoxin $B_1$ is a mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus and is a human carcinogen. This study was performed to investigate reduction of growth and aflatoxin production of A. parasiticus by kimchi. A. parasiticus was grown in a modified APT broth with the juice of kimchi (at a concentration of 7%) at $28^{\circ}C$ for 9 days. Aflatoxin $B_1$ was determined by use of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The addition of the juice of kimchi significantly reduced mycelial growth and aflatoxin production during the incubation period (p<0.05). Reduction of mycelial growth of A. parasiticus as the result of addition of the juice of kimchi was observed to range between 64.8 to 83.4% while reduction of aflatoxin production ranged from 62.2 to 73.0%. This study indicates that kimchi could be an effective inhibitor of aflatoxin production although mycelial growth may be permitted. More research is needed to study the inhibitory effects of the metabolites of kimchi.

We give a theorem for the existence of at least three solutions for the fourth order elliptic boundary value problem with the square growth variable coefficient nonlinear term. We use the variational reduction method and the critical point theory for the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace to prove our main result. We investigate the shape of the graph of the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace, (P.S.) condition and the behavior of the associated functional in the neighborhood of the origin on the finite dimensional reduction subspace.

We have simulated the effect of fracture characteristics on reduction of effective permeability of the fractured rocks due to in-situ bacteria growth. A nutrient is injected continuously for growth of in-situ bacteria. We used a power law for fracture length distribution and a fBm for fracture aperture spatial distribution. The results show that in-situ bacteria growth reduces the Permeability hyperbolically, but the porosity of backbone fracture does not change significantly. It shows that reduction of the permeability proceeds at faster speed for smaller value of length exponent(a) and for larger value of Hurst exponent(H). The fracture length distribution has stronger effect on speed of reduction than the aperture spatial distribution. The time needed to reduce permeability is inversely proportional to the hydraulic gradient.

Most of all nano-structures, SiC had a high electrical conductivity and mechanical strengths ay high temperatures. So It was considered a useful materials for nanosized device materials and added materials for strength hardening. Much methods were developed for SiC nanowire and nanorods like CVD, carbothermal reduction, Laser ablation and CNT-confined reduction. These methods used the VLS (Vapor-Liquid-Solid) growth mechanism. In these experiments, SiC nanowire was grown by SLS (Sold-Liquid-Solid) growth mechanism used Graphite substrate, And we characterized its microstructure to compare with VLS growth mechanism.

In this study, quantitative models were applied to case parks to estimate the carbon reduction by trees, which was compared and analyzed at the tree and park levels. At the tree level, quantitative models of carbon storage and uptake differed by up to 7.9 times, even for the same species and size. At the park level, the carbon reduction from quantitative models varied by up to 3.7 times for the same park. In other words, carbon reduction by quantitative models exhibited considerable variation at the tree and park levels. These differences are likely due to the use of different growth environment coefficients and annual diameter at breast height growth rates and the overestimation of carbon reduction due to the substitution of the same genus and group model for each tree species. Extending the annual carbon uptake per unit area of the case park to the total park area of Chuncheon a carbon uptake ranging from a minimum of 370.4 t/yr and a maximum of 929.3 t/yr, and the difference can reach up to 558.9 t/yr. This is equivalent to the carbon emissions from the annual household electricity consumption of approximately 2,430 people. These results suggest that the indiscriminate application of quantitative models to estimate carbon reduction in urban trees can lead to significant errors and deviations in estimating carbon storage and uptake in urban greenspaces. The findings of this study can serve as a basis for estimating carbon reduction in urban greening research, projects, and policies.
