PVDF-HFP (binder)/silylated alumina (inorganic particle)-coated PE (polyethylene) separators were with various compositions of binder and inorganic particle were prepared by a dip-coating process with humidity control (R.H. 25% and 50%) using electron beam irradiation. The morphology of the coated PVDF-$HFP/Al_2O_3$ layer with various compositions of PVDF-HFP and $Al_2O_3$, and humidity condition was found to be an important factor in determining ionic conductivity of the prepared separators. The PVDF-$HFP/Al_2O_3$ (5/5)-coated PE separator prepared at R.H. 50% followed by electron beam irradiation at 200 kGy was applied for lithium-ion polymer battery and the cell test results showed improved high-rate discharge performance and better cyclic stability compared to the cells with the bare PE and the PVDF-HFP-coated PE separators.

In previous study, the novel nanosized curdlan-silica complex for a sustain-releasing effect was developed by using gamma-irradiation. It can be applicable to use in various sustainr-eleasing formulation in agriculture industry. This study was conducted to investigate its storage stability and environmental toxicity in an accelerated condition. The complex samples were treated with high temperature condition ($65^{\circ}C$) during 3 weeks, and then sustain-releasing property of complex was verified thereby using Ion Chromatography on a weekly basis. The morphology of the complex was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results of Ion Chromatography analysis showed that sample treated for 3 weeks was similar to sustain-releasing pattern of non-treatment sample. We verify concluded that the complex is able to keep its sustain-releasing property and sustained-releasing in 3 years. Also the formulation has no environmental toxicity.

The post ion implantation has been applied to modify early-grown BN layer and improve the adhesion of the BN films. The effect of ion implantation doses on microstructure and interlayer was investigated by FTIR and HRTEM. And the hardness and delamination life time of N+-implanted BN films were measured. With increasing the ion dose up to $5.0\times10^{15}\textrm{atoms/cm}^2$,the change of IR spectrum is observed. At $5.0\times10^{16}\textrm{atoms/cm}^2$, a drastic transition of cubic phase into hexagonal phase is detected. The change of microstructure of early-grown layers by ion implantation is confirmed using HRTEM. Both microhardness and delamination life time of BN films increase with ion dose. The modification model of early-grown BN layers is briefly discussed based on the displacement per atom and excess boron in the BN film induced by ion irradiation.

Nitrogen ion with various levels of dose and irradiation energy was irradiated on aluminum surfaces. Contact angle of surface was increased and surface color was changed by nitrogen ion implantation. During steam condensation experiment using nitrogen ion implanted specimen, dropwise condensation initially occurred on specimens. However, condensation mode eventually changed into filmwise condensation. The color of the surface was also changed from yellow-brown to silver-white. This change of surface color and condensation mode were results of hydrolysis reaction between condensate and nitrogen ion implanted on aluminum surfaces.

We have studied the tilt angle generation on the homeotropic polyimide (PI) surface using a low intensity ion beam source as a function of incident angle. An excellent LC alignment of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on the PI surface with ion beam exposure for all incident angles was observed. The tilt angle of NLC on the homeotropic PI surface for all incident angles was from 90 to 88 degree was observed. Also the tilt angle of NLC on the homeotropic PI surface with ion beam exposure of 400 eV had a tendency to increase as ion beam energy incident angle become more instance from 45 degree. Finally, a good LC alignment thermal stability on the homeotropic PI surface with ion beam exposure can be achieved.

We characterize a flexible self-assembled liquid crystal display (LCD) fabricated from a polyimide (PI) alignment layer with polydimethylsiloxane pixel walls. Ion beam (IB) irradiation aligned LC molecules in the PI layer and bonded two flexible plastic substrates in a one-step assembly of the pixel walls. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy provided chemical and physical evidence for the formation of stable chemical bonds between the PI layer and the PDMS pixel walls in addition to the important maintenance of a uniform 6 um gap between the two substrates without the use of any epoxy resins or other polymers.

Due to its efficient red emission, $Eu^{3+}$ ion has been doped in various host materials. $GdCa_4B_3O_{10}:Eu^{3+}$ phosphor for red emission has been prepared by solid state reaction. Photoluminescence properties for the phosphor under UV and VUV excitation were investigated. The $GdCa_4B_3O_{10}:Eu^{3+}$ phosphor under both excitation conditions shows typical red emission spectrum centered at 611 nm with several weak peaks due to energy transfer from $^5D_O\;to\;^7F_J(J=1,2,3,4)$ of $Eu^{3+}$ ion. On the other hand, the activator content exhibiting the concentration quenching under UV and VUV irradiation is 10 mole% and 2.5 mole%, respectively.

The environmental effects on radio-sensitivities of Lactobacillus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied; Liquid suspensions of Lactobacillus and yeast were gamma-irradiated under various conditions; temperatures, hydrogen ion concentrations, amino acids and vitamins were treated seperately with variations of concentrations. (shown in figures) It is found that simultaneous heat treatment is effective to sterilize microorganisms than pre after treatment, and concentration of hydrogen ion does not affect the lethalty of yeast but or Lactobacilli was affect at the range of pH. 5.0 to 7.0. Ascorbic acid, thiamin and pyridoxine were protective dependently against lethal action of gamma-ray and its protective effects increase with the increasings of concentrations. Glutamic acid, aspartic acid, tyrosine and phenylalanine were proved to be protective for both strains at 0.1 between 1.0 percent. It can be suggested that industrial sterilizing doses of irradiation by gamma-ray for food should be applied more than those dose of saline or buffer suspension, because natural food stuffs are rich of vitamins and amino acids.

Nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment effects on SiOF layers via ion-beam (IB) irradiation for four types of incident energy were successfully studied. The effect of fluorine addition on silicon oxide film properties as a function of $SiOF_4/O_2$ gas flow ration was investigated.

Ion beam (IB)-induced alignment of inorganic materials has been investigated intensively as it provides controllability in a nonstop process for producing high-resolution displays[1][2]. LC orientation via ion-beam (IB) irradiation on the nitrogen doped diamond like carbon (NDLC) thin film deposited by physical deposition method-sputtering was embodied. The NDLC thin film that was deposited by sputter showed uniform LC alignment at the 1200eV of the ion beam intensity. The pretilt angle of LC on NDLC thin films was measured with various IB exposure time and angle. The maximum pretilt angle were showed with IB irradiation angle of $45^{\circ}$ and exposure time of 62.5 sec, respectively. To show NDLC thin film stability in high temperature, thermal stability test was proceeded. The uppermost of the thermal stability of NDLC thin film was $200^{\circ}C$. In this investigation, the electro-optical (EO) characteristics of LC on NDLC thin film were measured.
