Thiamine hydrochloride (VB1) has been used as an acid catalyst in organic synthesis. One pot three component Biginelli condensation of dimedone, urea/thiourea and substituted aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by 10 mol % of thiamine hydrochloride (VB1) in solvent free condition under microwave irradiation in good to excellent yields has been investigated. Utilization of microwave irradiation, simple reaction conditions, short reaction time, ease of product isolation, and purification makes this manipulation very interesting from an economic and environmental perspective.

Proton irradiation technology was used for improvement of switching characteristics of the PT-IGBT. The proton irradiation was carried out at 5.56 MeV energy from the back side of processed wafers and at 2.39 MeV energy from the front side of the wafers. The on-state and off-state I-V characteristics and switching properties of the device were analyzed and compared with those of un-irradiated device and e-beam irradiated device which was conventional method for minority carrier lifetime reduction. The proton irradiated device by 5.56 MeV energy was superior to e-beam irradiated device for the on-state and off-state I-V characteristics, nevertheless turn-off time of proton irradiated device was superior to that of the e-beam irradiated device.

In relation to a non-destructive evaluation of irradiation damages of micro-structure interstitial, void and dislocation, the changes in the hysteresis loop, Barkhausen noise amplitude and the harmonics frequency due to a neutron irradiation were measured and evaluated. The Mn-Mo-Ni low alloy steel of RPV was irradiated to a neutron fluence of $2.3\times10^{19}\;n/cm^2\;(E\geq1\;MeV)\;at\;288^{\circ}C$. The saturation magnetization of neutron irradiated metal did not change. The neutron irradiation caused the coercivity to increase, whereas susceptibility to decrease. The amplitude of Barkhausen noise parameters associated with the domain wall motion were decreased by a neutron irradiation. The spectrum of Barkhausen noise is analysed with an applied frequency of 4 Hz and 8 Hz, sampling time of $50\;{\mu}sec\;and\;20\;{\mu}sec$. The harmonic frequency shows 4 Hz, 8 Hz, 12 Hz; and 16 Hz reflected from an unirradiated specimen. On the contrary, the harmonic frequency disappeared on the irradiated specimen.

This study was measured the radiation-induced current - X-ray dose, dose rate, X-ray quality, time, temperature, electric field characteristics and the dependence of gap length in insulating oil under of D.C. Voltage before, during and after X-ray irradiation. The obtained results can be summarized as following. 1. The radiation - induced current is more the dependence of X-ray quality (tube voltage) than quantity (tube current), the dependence of quantity is appeared at the high than low X-.ay tube voltage. 2. The dependence of dose rate is appeared at the more dose rate, and ${\triangle}\;=\;0.64{\sim}0.74$. 3. The higher temperature of insulating oil and X-ray tube voltage (X-ray quality) is increased, at the low electric field, the more radiation-induced current. 4. $G_{eq}-G_{o}(={\triangle}G)$ is increased at the low than high temperature, high than low X-ray quality. 5. The dependence of temperature is appeared before than during X-ray irradiation. 6. The RIC saturation region is appeared at the high than low insulating oil temperature during (1000 V/cm above) than before (4000 V/cm above) X-ray irradiation.

Various reaction conditions uding temperature, time and type and concentration of templates have been changed in order to facilely synthesize, especially with microwave (MW) heating, SAPO-34 molecular sieves. SAPO-34 molecular sieve can be synthesized rapidly with microwave irradiation from a gel containing tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TEAOH) as a template. However, other several templating molecules lead to SAPO-5 molecular sieve under microwave irradiation even though SAPO-34 is obtained by conventional electric synthesis from the same reactant gels. Moreover, SAPO-34 can be obtained more easily by increasing the TEAOH or silica concentration or by increasing the reaction temperature. SAPO-34 can be obtained within 5 min in a selected condition (high temperature of 210 $^{\circ}C$) with microwave heating, which may lead to a continuous production of the important material. SAPO-34 synthesized by microwave irradiation is homogeneous and small in size and shows acidity and a stable performance in the dehydration of methanol and 2-butanol to olefins, suggesting potential applications in acid catalysis.

In this work, an integrated model including molecular dynamics and chemical rate theory was implemented to calculate the growth of point defect clusters(PDC) and copper-rich precipitates(CRP) which could change the mechanical properties of reactor pressure vessel(RPV) steels in a nuclear power plant. A number of time-dependent differential equations were established and numerically integrated to estimate the evolution of irradiation defects. The calculation showed that the concentration of the vacancies was higher than that of the self-interstitial atoms. The higher concentration of vacancies induced a formation of the CRPs in the later stage. The size of the CRPs was used to estimate the mechanical property changes in RPV steels, as is the same case with the PDCs. The calculation results were compared with the measured values of yield strength change and Charpy V-notch transition temperature shift, which were obtained from the surveillance test data of Korean light water reactors(LWRs). The estimated values were in fair agreement with the experimental results in spite of the uncertainty of the modeling parameters.

Many isolated featureless domains were explicitly observed even at the air-water interface. We measured the surface pressure shift originating from the photo-isomerization of azobenzene units on the periphery of dendrimers. The maximum surface pressure was gradual1y increased and saturated by cyclic compression and decompression. By irradiation of 365 [nm] light, the surface pressure was increased, which was originated by the photo-isomerization process of the azobenzene group on the periphery from trans to cia form. The increase of the dipole moment ($\mu$), which may increase the interaction among Azo dendrimer molecules, made an important role on surface pressure shift. From the absorbance spectrum by UV irradiation and heat treatment, we can see that the absorbance in the UV region decreases with the increase of the UV irradiation time, but the peak at 350 m, characteristic of dendrimers in the LB monolayers, was not shifted until four irradiation cycles. This suggests that optical behavior and morphological change are affected by the functional group and the symmetric chain.

A fast switching thyristor with a superior trade-off property between the on-state voltage drop and the turn-off time could be fabricated by the proton irradiation method. After making symmetric thyristor dies with a voltage rating of 1,600 V from 350 $\mu$m thickness of 60 $\Omega$ㆍcm NTD-Si wafer and 200 $\mu$m width of n-base drift layer, the local carrier lifetime control by the proton irradiation was performed with help of the HI-13 tandem accelerator in China. The thyristor samples irradiated with 4.7 MeV proton beam showed a superior trade-off relationship of $V_{TM}$ = 1.55 V and $t_{q}$ = 15 $\mu$s attributed to a very narrow layer of short carrier lifetime(～1 $\mu$s) in the middle of its n-base drift region. To explain the small increase of $V_{TM}$ , we will introduce the effect of carrier compensation at the low carrier lifetime region by the diffusion current.ffusion current.t.

Inflammation is a frequent radiation-induced following therapeutic irradiation. Treatment of human umbilical endothelial cells (HUVEC) with ${\gamma}$-irradiation (${\gamma}$IR) induces the expression of adhesion proteins such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and E-selectin. Since the upregulation of these proteins on endothelial cell surface has been known to be associated with inflammation, interfering with the expression of adhesion molecules is an important therapeutic target. In the present study, we demonstrate that bioflavonoid rutin inhibits ${\gamma}$IR induced expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin on HUVEC in a dose- and time dependent manner. Rutin also inhibited ${\gamma}$IR induced production of NO. These data suggest that rutin has therapeutic potential for the treatment of various inflammatory disorder associated with an increase of endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecules.
