The typical double-barrier magnetic tunnel junction (DMTJ) structure examined in this paper consists of a Ta 45/Ru 9.5/IrMn 10/CoFe7/$AlO_x$/free layer/AlO/CoFe 7/IrMn 10/Ru 60 (nm). The free layer consists of an $Ni_{16}Fe_{62}Si_8B_{14}$ 7 nm, $Co_{90}Fe_{10}$ (fcc) 7 nm, or CoFe $t_1$/NiFeSiB $t_2$/CoFe $t_1$ layer in which the thicknesses $t_1$ and $t_2$ are varied. The DMTJ with an NiFeSiB-free layer had a tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) of 28%, an area-resistance product (RA) of $86\;k{\Omega}{\mu}m^2$, a coercivity ($H_c$) of 11 Oe, and an interlayer coupling field ($H_i$) of 20 Oe. To improve the TMR ratio and RA, a DMTJ comprising an amorphous NiFeSiB layer that could partially substitute for the CoFe free layer was investigated. This hybrid DMTJ had a TMR of 30%, an RA of $68\;k{\Omega}{\mu}m^2$, and a of 11 Oe, but an increased of 37 Oe. We confirmed by atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy that increased as the thickness of NiFeSiB decreased. When the amorphous NiFeSiB layer was thick, it was effective in retarding the columnar growth which usually induces a wavy interface. However, if the NiFeSiB layer was thin, the roughness was increased and became large because of the magnetostatic $N{\acute{e}}el$ coupling.

The reactions of hydrated $CdCl_2$, $MnCl_2$, and $NiCl_2$ with 2,2'-bipyidine-3,3',6,6'-tetracarboxylic acid ($H_4bptc$) afforded the mononuclear [$Cd^{II}(H_2bptc)(H_2O)_3]{\cdot}H_2O$ (1), linear $\{[Cd(H_2bptc)(H_2O)]{\cdot}3H_2O\}_n$ (2), 3-D heterobimetallic $[NaCd(Hbptc)(H_2O)]$ (3), layer $[Mn(H_2bptc)(H_2O)]_n$ (4) and a dinuclear compound $[Ni_2(H_2bptc)-(H_2O)_2]{\cdot}6H_2O$ (5). These compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and their structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography. The thermal stabilities of 1-3 were measured by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and their solid state luminescence properties together with the free ligand $H_4bptc$ were investigated at room temperature.

A new series of Mn(II) and Mo(VI) complexes containing the Schiff bases hydrazinecarbothioamide and hydrazinecarboxamide of 5,6-dimethyl-1H-indol-2,3-dione have been synthesized. The nature of bonding and the stereochemistry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations and spectral studies viz. electronic IR, ESR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{13}C$ NMR and X-ray diffraction spectral studies. The magnetic moment values of the manganese(II) complexes are in the range of 5.80-6.15 B.M. suggesting a high spin state of manganese in these complexes. The spectral data are consistent with a tetrahedral geometry around Mn(II) and an octahedral geometry for Mo(VI), in which the ligands act as bidentate chelating agents, coordinated through the nitrogen and sulfur/oxygen atoms. The ligands and their metal complexes have been tested against a number of pathogenic fungi and bacteria at different concentrations and were found to possess sufficient fungicidal and bactericidal properties. Further, the complexes were also tested for their antifertility activity in male albino rats and the results were indeed positive.

The performance of several catalysts to decompose the high test peroxide (HTP) was described in this paper. Manganese oxide, Platinum and Iridium were coated on the gamma alumina. The response time of various catalysts was measured with a 50 Newton class thruster. Ir/$Al_2O_3$ that showed the fastest response time at the thruster, failed the reaction when continuous mode test was carried out with the thruster. Pt/$Al_2O_3$ and MnO_2/Al_2O_3$ can be substitutes to decompose the HTP. In addition, for larger thruster, MnO_2/Al_2O_3$ can be a good catalyst because its cost is below 5 % of Pt/$Al_2O_3$.

본 연구에서는 전극의 특성에 따른 돈사유래 축산폐수의 ECO 공법에 의한 처리특성을 평가하기 위해 ECO 시스템 모듈내 Fe-Fe 및 Al-Al 계열의 용해성 전극과 Al-SUS, Ir-SUS 등 불용성 전극을 대상으로 5$\sim$20mA/cm$^2$의 전류밀도하에서 축산폐수내 유기물 및 영양염류의 제거특성을 평가하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. 전기응집산화에 의한 축산폐수의 처리시 수중 유기물질 및 영양염류의 제거효율은 전류밀도의 증가에 비례하여 증가한다. 2. 불용성 전극조합 및 불용성-용해성 전극조합은 전류밀도가 높을수록 수중 유기물 및 오염물질 제거효율이 안정되고, 용해성 전극은 15mA/cm$^2$ 이하의 저 전류밀도의 조건하에서 전류밀도의 증가에 따라 안정된 제거효율 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 3. 불용성전극 조합인 Ir-SUS 전극조합을 사용하여 축산폐수를 처리할 경우 COD$_{Mn}$ 제거효율을 약 10% 향상시킬 수 있으며, TN 20mA/cm$^2$에서 Al-Al 전극조합과 TP 15mA/cm$^2$ 이하에서 Fe-Fe 전극조합은 제거효율이 저하되는 경향이 나타난다.

This study reports the synthesis of a bi-dentate Schiff base ligand (L), 7-(2-((2-formylbenzylidene) amino)-2-phenylacetamido)-3-methyl-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid, prepared from phthalaldehyde and cephalexin antibiotic. The synthesized Schiff base ligand (L) and the secondary ligand alizarin (Az) are used to prepare the new complexes [M(Az)₂(L)] and [Cr(Az)₂(L)]Cl, where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II). The mode of bonding of the Schiff base has been characterized by UV-Visible, FT-IR, Mass, ¹H-, and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopic techniques, and micro elemental analysis (CHNS). The complexes were characterized using UV-Vis, FT-IR, molar conductance, magnetic moment, and thermal analysis (TG/DTG). The molar conductance data revealed that the complexes are non-electrolytes except for [Cr(L)(Az)₂]Cl, which is an electrolytic type 1:1. The Schiff base and its complexes have been tested for their biological activity against two strains of bacteria and one fungus. When screened against gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens, the Az and L ligands and their complexes showed potential antimicrobial activity.

PC-type copolymers were synthesized using MPEG(polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate, Mn=2080) to different mole ratios of mono-carboxylic acid(AA : acylic acid). The mole ratios of AA were 2, 3, 4 and PC-type terpolymers were synthesized using mono-, dicarboxylic acid(ITA : itaconic acid MAL : maleic acid) with the same graft chain. To investigate effects of PC-type co-, ter-polymers on the hydration of cement experiments involving FT-IR, XRD, DSC, SEM have been analysed with cement paste specimens to 1, 3, 28 day. The hydration reaction rate of cement paste was slightly delayed at 1 day, due to increase in molar ratio of [AA]/[MPEG], it was recovered in the days after and the copolymer was more active than the terpolymer, because of low carboxylic acid content PC-type copolymers applied 2AA-type were fastest copolymer on hydration reaction of cement paste to 3 day and the more AA mole ratios increased, the more hydration was retarded.

Mineral contents of various salts were determined by the ICP-OES method. Bamboo salt (baked 9 times) contained more potassium, calcium, magnesium, and manganese, compared to purified and solar salts. Bamboo salt had a pH of 11.04, higher than those of purified (6.29) and solar (9.13) salts. Contents of [$OH^-$] were measured by using the FT-IR spectra. Bamboo salt exhibited higher reduction potential and contained more OH groups than purified and solar salts. The reduction peak of bamboo salt was observed to be about three times broader than that of solar salt in terms of redox potential amperometry. At a salt concentration of 25%, bamboo salt showed higher radical scavenging activities (81.4%) than solar (5.0%) and purified (2.0%) salts, as evaluated by DPPH assay. Bamboo salt revealed alkaline property, more OH groups and antioxidative activity.

The cure mechanicsm and cure kinetics of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A(DGEBA)/4,4'-methylene dianiline(MDA)/nitrile(MN, SN, GN) systems were studied by FT-IR and DSC to develop new applications in the biomedical polymer fields. The network structure of the DGEBA/MDA system was changed to the chain-extended network structure by the addition of nitriles. The reactions contributed to the chain extension were the primary amine-nitrile and hydroxyl-nitrile reactions. The chain-extended network structure could be indirectly proved by the decrement of T\ulcorner and the increment of impact strength with the increasing nitrile content. The cure rate of DGEBA/MDA/nitrile system was lower than that of DGEBA/MDA system due to the disturbance of nitrile group in the reaction of primary amine and epoxide groups.
