The theory of microlocal analysis of hyperbolic partial differential equations shows that the energy density associated to their high-frequency solutions satisfies transport equations, or radiative transfer equations for randomly heterogeneous materials with correlation lengths comparable to the (small) wavelength. The main limitation to the existing developments is the consideration of boundary or interface conditions for the energy and power flow densities. This paper deals with the high-frequency transport regime in coupled heterogeneous structures. An analytical model for the derivation of high-frequency power flow reflection/transmission coefficients at a beam or a plate junction is proposed. These results may be used in subsequent computations to solve numerically the transport equations for coupled systems, including interface conditions. Applications of this research concern the prediction of the transient response of slender structures impacted by acoustic or mechanical shocks.

We consider the several plane sector domains which are bonded together along common edges with vertex at the origin. Such domains appear in electric conducting problem with multi-layered heterogeneous media. Our aim is to give a structure theorem of the singularities of the electric field at the corner. Also, we provide a regularity theorem for the electric field.

산화금속은 높은 결정성, quantum size effect, 높은 투과도, 대기중의 안정도 등과 같은 탁월한 성질들로 인하여 오늘날 실리콘의 대체물로서 많은 연구가 보고되고 있다. 이러한 금속산화물의 크기와 모양을 조절하며 대량 생산하기 위한 합성방법으로 가수분해, 금속양이온 응축법과 같은 다양한 수용액상 방법이 연구되고 있다. 하지만 2차원 단일 층에 나노물질을 정렬하고 전기적 접합을 형성하는 것이 매우 어렵다는 점 때문에 나노물질을 기판 위에 자유롭게 성장시키는 방법에 대해서는 아직 많이 보고 되어있지 않다. 본 연구에서 저온의 수용액에서 1차원의 나노막대가 2차원의 스피넬 구조 위에 heteroepotaxial 접합을 이루며 성장시키는 방법을 이용하였다. P-n접합 형성을 위하여 (0001)방향으로 배향된 n-type ZnO 나노막대를 (111)방향의 p-type Co3O4 나노플레이트 위에 성장시킨 구조를 제작하였으며 이를 바탕으로 다이오드소자를 제작하여 ideal factor, turn-on voltage, rectifying ratio등의 전기적 특성을 평가하였다.

Enterovirus species G (EV-G) is highly diverse, and is ubiquitous in pig populations, usually without diarrhea. The present study aimed to investigate the presence of novel EV-G recombinants with the torovirus papain-like cysteine protease (PLCP) in Jeju pig herds. EV-G1-PLCP mono-infections were most prevalent in diarrheic weaned piglets. The PLCP genes of the Jeju isolates varied in size and junction sequences, and were greatly heterogeneous, with 77.0-90.7% homology amongst all recombinants. Our results suggest that the exogenous PLCP gene has undergone continuous rapid mutation in the individual EV-G genomes following cross-order recombination, thereby causing clinical disease in swine.

In this paper, we have fabricated the Schottky diode for THz applications by heterogeneous resist patterning method. The Schottky diode was developed using electron beam lithography and photolithography to connect the anode and the anode pad for a simple process. The measured performance of developed Schottky diode are $11.2{\Omega}$ of series resistance, 25.96 fF of junction capacitance, 1.25 of ideality factor and 547.6 GHz of cut-off frequency.

The process of charge transfer at the interface between two semiconductors or between a metal and a semiconductor plays an important role in many areas of technology. The optimization of such devices requires a good theoretical description of the interfaces involved. This, in turn, has motivated detailed mechanistic studies of interfacial charge-transfer reactions at metal/organic, organic/organic, and organic/inorganic semiconductor heterojunctions. Charge recombination of photo-induced electron with redox species such as oxidized dyes or triiodide or cationic HTM (hole transporting materials) at the heterogeneous interface of $TiO_2$ is one of main loss factors in liquid junction DSSCs or solid-state DSSCs, respectively. Among the attempts to prevent recombination reactions such as insulating thin layer and lithium ions-doped hole transport materials and introduction of co-adsorbents, although co-adsorbents retard the recombination reactions as hydrophobic energy barriers, little attention has been focused on the anchoring processes. Molecular engineering of heterogeneous interfaces by employing several co-adsorbents with different properties altered the surface properties of $TiO_2$ electrodes, resulting to the improved power conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the DSSCs. In this talk, advantages of the coadsorbent-assisted sensitization of N719 in preparation of DSSCs will be discussed.

Although extensively characterized in human cells, no heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein(hnRNP) has been found in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe which is amenable to genetic studies and more similar to mammals than Saccharomyces cerevisiae is in terms of RNA processing. As a first step to characterize hnRNPs from S. pombe, attempt was made to find human hnRNP A1 homologs from S. pombe. The RNA molecule (A1 winner) containing the consensus high-affinity hnRNP A1 binding site (UAGGGA/U) was synthesized in vitro and used in an ultraviolet(UV) light-induced protein-RNA cross-linking assay. A number of S, pombe proteins bound to the A1 winner RNA. An approximately 50-kDa protein(p50) cross-linked more efficiently to the A1 winner RNA than other proteins. The p50 protein did not cross-link to a nonspecific RNA, but rather to the A1-5’ SS RNA in which the consensus 5’ splice junction sites of S. pombe introns were abolished. This suggests that the p50 protein, however, did not bind to the single-stranded DNA to shich the human hnRNP A1 could bind and be eluted with 0.5M NaCl. Further analysis should reveal more features of this RNA-binding protein.

The number of the PV systems installed in south korea has been gradually increasing. Interest of operation & management of PV System is rising up as PV System installation trends to increase. The vital function of operation & management is the monitoring system. Most monitoring systems are only available for equipment of suppliers and manufacturers. In this study, a monitoring system was implemented to support multi-domain equipment (inverter, junction box, water distribution board, environmental sensors) that are not limited to specific manufacturers. Monitoring system includes a visualization function, which makes it easy for users to check the power generation and the operation status of the equipment of PV System. In the future, this monitoring system will be utilized as an operation & maintenance foundation element in the PV system industry.

An 8-year-old, spayed female Persian cat weighing 3.6 kg presented with a lumbosacral mass and bilateral weight bearing hindlimb lameness. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a dumbbell-shaped heterogeneous mass extending through the internal surface of the ileum and surrounding the lumbosacral junction. CT also revealed extensive osteoproliferation and bone lysis of the sacrum, but no evidence of any pulmonary metastasis. Furthermore, MRI revealed a focal area in the spinal cord showing connection with the adjacent tumor, suggesting tumor invasion into the spinal cord. Low-grade myxoid chondrosarcoma was histopathologically diagnosed. This is the first report describing CT and MRI findings of spinal cord chondrosarcoma in veterinary medicine. This study suggests that combining CT with MRI is a more sensitive tool for evaluating spinal tumors than using CT or MRI alone.

Among multicomponent nanostructures, hybrid nanocatalysts consisting of metal nanoparticle-semiconductor junctions offer an interesting platform to study the role of metal-oxide interfaces and hot electron flows in heterogeneous catalysis. In this study, we report that hot carriers generated upon photon absorption significantly impact the catalytic activity of CO oxidation. We found that Pt-CdSe-Pt nanodumbbells exhibited a higher turnover frequency by a factor of two during irradiation by light with energy higher than the bandgap of CdSe, while the turnover rate on bare Pt nanoparticles didn't depend on light irradiation. We also found that Pt nanoparticles deposited on a GaN substrate under light irradiation exhibit changes in catalytic activity of CO oxidation that depends on the type of doping of the GaN. We suppose that hot electrons are generated upon the absorption of photons by the semiconducting nanorods or substrates, whereafter the hot electrons are injected into the Pt nanoparticles, resulting in the change in catalytic activity. We discuss the possible mechanism for how hot carrier flows generated during light irradiation affect the catalytic activity of CO oxidation.
