When WC and group IV elements are added to Ti(C,N)-Ni substrate, microstructures of the cermet is changed. The microstructure gives direct effect on the property of the material. In this study, the amount of WC and group W elements of Ti(C,N) cermet tool was investigated. The composition of WC was changed from 5 to 20wt% to determine the effect of WC on the cutting performance of cermet tool. The more WC was added, the longer the tool life of the cermet tool was. The cermet with 20wt% WC showed the best fracture toughness. The effect of group W elements; ZrC, ZrN and HfC was also investigated by adding each of them to manufacture the cermet tool with fixed l4wt% WC composition. The cermet with 1wt% ZrC and 14wt% WC showed the best cutting performance among the investigated cermet tools.

본 논문은 기존의 $Si_{3}N_4$, SiN 물질 대신 Pt를 사용해 HF 용액속에서 다공질 실리콘과 전극을 동시에 형성하는 기술을 개발하였다. Pt를 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 직접 증착한 후 습식 에칭과 Lift-off 공정을 사용하여 Pt를 패터닝하였다. 습식 에칭은 에칭용액의 온도를 일정하게 유지하는 것이 중요하며, 증착한 Pt 박막이 BOE 에칭에 견디고, Lift-off 공정이 가능하기 위해서는 기판온도를 l100$^{\circ}C$ 이하로 해야한다. Pt를 사용하면 기존의 mask에서 발생하는 가장자리 부분에서의 전류 집중이 방지되기 때문에 다공질 실리콘이 일정한 깊이로 형성되고, Al대신 오믹 전극으로 사용할 수 있다. 현재 Pt를 mask와 전극으로 이용한 P-I-N UV detector, 광 바이오센서, 습도센서 제작등에 응용 연구가 진행되고 있다.

13C, 15N, and 29Si NMR chemical shifts have been computed for selected X-substituted silatranes (X=Cl, F, H, CH3) using Gauge-Including Atomic Orbitals (GIAO) at the Hartree-Fock level of theory. The isotropic 13C chemical shifts are largely insensitive to substituent-induced structural changes. In this study, the isotropic 13C chemical shifts between 1-methyl- and 1-hydrogensilatranes by GIAO-SCF calculation at the HF/6-31G level are very similar. But the results of 1-chloro- and 1-fluorosilatranes are about 4 ppm different from the experimental values. In contrast, the isotropic 15N and 29Si chemical shifts and the chemical shielding tensors are quite sensitive to substituent-induced structural changes. These trends are consistent with those of the experiment. The isotropic 15N chemical shift demonstrates a very clear correlation with Si-N distance. But in case of 29Si the correlations are not as clean as for the 15N chemical shift; the calculated variation in the 29Si chemical shift is much larger.

The catalytic transformation of sterically bulky tertiary stannane n-Bu3SnH by the Cp2MCl2/Red-Al (M=Ti, Zr, Hf) and M(CO)6 (M=Cr, Mo, W) catalysts yielded two kinds of catenated products: one is a cross-linked polystannane as minor product, and the other is hexabutyldistannane (n-Bu3Sn)2 as major product. The distannane was produced by simple dehydrocoupling of n-Bu3SnH, whereas the cross-linked polystannane could be obtained via redistribution/dehydrocoupling combination process of n-Bu3SnH. The redistribution/dehydrocoupling combination process may initially produce a low-molecular-weight oligostannane with partial backbone Sn-H bonds which could then undergo an extensive cross-linking reaction of backbone Sn-H bonds, resulting in the formation of an insoluble polystannane.

Si3N4 powder has been analyzed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The sample was dissolved by high-pressure acid digestion with HF, H2SO4 (1+1), and HNO3 mix ture. This technique is well suited for the impurity analysis of Si3N4 because the matrix interference is eliminated. A round-robin samples trace elements, such as Ca, W, Co, Al, Fe, Mg, and Na, were determined. For the direct analysis, slurry nebulization of 0.96 mm Si3N4 powder also has been studied by ICP-AES. Emission intensities of Fe were measured as ICP operational conditions were changed. Significant signal difference between slurry particles and aqueous solution was observed in the present experiment. Analytical results of slurry injection and high-pressure acid digestion were compared. For the use of aqueous standard solution for calibration, k-factor was determined to be 1.71 for further application.

When cystic fluid of Taenia solium metacestodes (CF) was filtrated through Sephacryl S-300 Superfine, major proteins were in fractions III add IV Major protein in fraction III was Band C protein of 150 kDa and that in fraction IV was Band N protein (Choi et of., 1990). When CF was electrophoresed in 0.9% agarose gel and reacted with anti-CF rabbit serum (RACF), two main bands, a long outer and a short inner band, were precipitated, together with 8 minor bands. RACF reacted with fraction III forming the long outer band whereas RACF formed the short infer band with fraction IV in immunoelectrophoresis (IEP) The long outer precipitin band of CF fraction III was similar to antigen B in hydatid fluid (HF) of Oriol et at. (1971), while the short inner band of CF fraction IV was similar to HF antigen 5 of Caption et at. (1967) . When HF was reacted with RACF, the short inner band was immunoprecipitated without forming the long outer band. Common antigenicity between CF and HF seemed to exist in fraction IV rather than in fraction III of CF. Patient sera of neurocysticercosis reacted more frequently with fraction III than with fraction IV.

Rencently, neuromorphic systems of spiking neural networks (SNNs) that imitate the human brain have attracted attention. Neuromorphic technology has the advantage of high speed and low power consumption in cognitive applications and processing. Resistive random-access memory (RRAM) for SNNs are the most efficient structure for parallel calculation and perform the gradual switching operation of spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). RRAM as synaptic device operation has low-power processing and expresses various memory states. However, the integration of RRAM device causes high switching voltage and current, resulting in high power consumption. To reduce the operation voltage of the RRAM, it is important to develop new materials of the switching layer and metal electrode. This study suggested a optimized new structure that is the Metal/Al₂O₃/HfO_x/SWCNTs/N+silicon (MOCS) with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), which have excellent electrical and mechanical properties in order to lower the switching voltage. Therefore, we show an improvement in the gradual switching behavior and low-power I/V curve of SWCNTs-based memristors.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of powdered young barley leaf and its water extract on body weight and lipid metabolism in high-fat fed mice. Male mice were divided into normal group, high-fat (HF) group, high-fat group supplemented with powdered young barley leaf (HF-YBL) and high-fat group supplemented with water extract of the powdered young barley leaf (HF-WYBL). The powdered young barley leaf or its water extract was added to a standard diet based on 1% dried young barley leaf (1 g YBL/100 diet and 0.28 g WYBL/100 g diet) for 8 weeks. Supplementation of YBL and WYBL significantly reduced body weight and epididymal adipose tissue weight in high-fat fed mice. Food intake and daily energy intake were significantly lower in the YBL group than in the HF group. After 8 weeks, plasma triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations were significantly higher in the HF group than in the Normal group; however, both YBL and WYBL significantly lowered those of the high-fat fed mice. The ratio of HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol of the YBL and WYBL groups were significantly elevated compared to that of HF group. Both YBL and WYBL significantly increased fecal excretion of triglyceride in high-fat fed mice, whereas they did not affect fecal cholesterol concentration. The triglyceride levels of liver, adipose tissue and heart were significantly lower in the YBL and WYBL groups than in the HF group. Supplementation of WYBL also lowered the kidney triglyceride and heart cholesterol concentrations compared to those of HF group. Hepatic lipid regulating enzyme activities, fatty acid synthase, HMG-CoA reductase and acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase, were significantly lower in the YBL and WYBL groups than in the HF group. Accordingly, these results suggest that YBL and WYBL improve plasma and organ lipid levels partly by increasing fecal lipid excretion and inhibiting fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis in the liver.

Polymer-assisted deposition is a chemical solution route to high quality thin films. In this process, the polymer controls the viscosity and binds metal ions, resulting in a homogeneous distribution of metal precursors in the solution and the formation of crack-free and uniform films after thermal treatment. We review our recent effort to epitaxially grow metal-nitride thin films, such as hexagonal GaN, cubic TiN, AlN, NbN, and VN, mixed-nitride $Ti_{1-x}Al_xN$, ternary nitrides tetragonal $SrTiN_2$, $BaZrN_2$, and $BaHfN_2$, hexagonal $FeMoN_2$, and nanocomposite TiN-$BaZrN_2$.

The cationic polymerization of energetic substituted oxetanes which have pendant energetic group such as azido and nitrato are investigated theoretically, using semiempirical HF/3-21G, MINDO/3, MNDO and AM1 method. The stereo- and electronic structure of binary molecular complex composed of energetic substituted oxetane and boron trifluoride can be explain by molecular orbital theory. The reactivity of propagation in the copolymerization of oxetanes can be presented by the positive charge on carbon(C2) atom of oxetane and energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) of propagating species of oxetanes. The reactivity ratios for copolymerization of oxetanes are a random copolymer-zation which is agree with MO calculated and experimental results. The relative equlibrium concentration of cyclic oxonium and open carbenium ions is found to be a major determinant of mechanism, owing to the rapid equilibrium of these cation forms and the expectation based on calculation that in the prepolymer propagation step, SN1 mechanism will be at least as fast as that for SN2 mechanism.
