  • 반도체 산업은 우리나라 주력산업중 하나로 매년 꾸준한 성장세를 보이며 지속적인 성장을 하고 있다. 이러한 반도체 산업에서의 중요한 기술은 소자의 고 집적화이다. 이는 면적당 메모리 용량을 증가시키는 것으로 핵심역할을 하는 것이 바로 포토리소그래피 기술이다. 포토리소그래피란 마스크의 표면에 빛을 쬐어 생기는 그림자를 웨이퍼 상에 인쇄하는 기술이며 반도체 제조공정에서의 가장 중요한 공정이다. 이러한 공정을 통해 나온 패터닝을 분석 시에 폭과 단차의 균일성을 측정한다. 이에 따라 본 논문은 포토리소그래피 공정이 적용된 시험편 패터닝에 폭과 판 사이와의 단차를 투과형 디지털 홀로그래피를 구성하여 측정하고자 한다. 투과형 디지털 홀로그래피 간섭계를 구성하고 시험편에 임의의 9포인트를 설정하여 각 포인트를 측정하고 상용장비인 SEM (scanning electron microscopy)과 alpha step으로 측정한 결과와 비교하고자 한다. 투과형 디지털 홀로그래피는 측정시간이 타 기법에 비에 짧다는 장점과 배율렌즈를 사용하기 때문에 저 배율에서 고 배율로 변경하여 측정할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 실험 결과로부터 투과형 디지털 홀로그래피가 포토 리소그래피가 적용된 패터닝 측정에 유용한 기술임을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 10 개체의 붕어, Carassius auratus 아가미뚜껑의 한쪽면에 1-4개체의 거머리, Limnotrachelobdella sinensis들이 기생하고 있었다. 거머리들의 평균 길이는 약 41.0 mm 정도였고, 폭은 11 mm였다. 이들의몸체는 anterior sucker, neck, trunk, posterior sucker로 구성되어 있었고 각각의 평균 길이는 2.3 mm, 7.2 mm, 23.3 mm, 8.7 mm였다. 몸통의 양 옆에는 11쌍의 lateral vesicle이 존재하였다. Anterior sucker를 SEM으로 관찰한 결과 이들은 반구모양으로 중앙에는 proboscis가 나오는 입이 존재하고 있었다. Proboscis는 식도와 바로 연결되어 있었다. 거머리에 의해서 흡혈되어진 붕어의 아가미를 광학현미경으로 관찰하였을 때 새판융합, 새엽 및 새판 상피세포 과증식, 점액세포 증가 및 울혈이 관찰되었다. 하지만 몇몇 개체들에서 나타나는 새엽 상피세포의 괴사 및 수종변성과 식세포의 침투 등은 거머리의 흡혈 활동 이후 세균 혹은 바이러스에 의한 2차 감염이 원인인 것으로 생각되어진다.

  • 남해안에서 분리한 Gymnodinium catenatum의 형태, 계통학적 분석 및 다양한 온도 및 염분에 반응하는 성장 조건을 파악하였다. G. catenatum의 세포는 세로로 길거나 세로와 가로의 길이가 유사한 오각형이었다. 세포의 길이는 $38.1{\sim}77.4{\mu}m$, 폭은 $26.1{\sim}40.8{\mu}m$로 나타났다. 핵은 세포의 중간에 위치하였고, 상추구는 말굽의 편자 모양이었고, 이는 국내외 배양주와 형태적으로 매우 유사한 결과 였다. 계통분석 결과도 염기유사도를 비교해 보았을 때, 기존에 보고된 배양주와 100% 일치하여 이 종은 단일 계통으로 판단되었다. 온도와 염분에 대한 성장실험에서 G. catenatum은 $15^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 염분 15 psu를 제외한 모든 염분구간에서 성장을 보였으며, 고온인 $30^{\circ}C$에서는 성장을 하지 않았다. 최대성장속도는 온도 $25^{\circ}C$, 염분 35 psu에서 $0.37day^{-1}$로 나타났고 최대세포밀도는 온도 $20^{\circ}C$, 염분 25에서 $1,073cells\;mL^{-1}$였다. 이 결과는 G. catenatum이 한국 남해안에서 여름철 및 가을철, 특히 평균 수온이 $20^{\circ}C$ 이상인 여름철에 최대 증식을 보일 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

  • The genus Heterocapsa is one of the major dinoflagellate groups, with some of its species having worldwide distributions. However, prior to the present study, the phototrophic species Heterocapsa minima has been reported only from the northeast Atlantic Ocean. Recently, H. minima was found in the Korean waters, and a clonal culture was established. This culture was used to examine the morphology of the Korean strain H. minima HMMJ1604 through light and scanning electron microscopy, as well as for its genetic characterization. Furthermore, to determine the nationwide distribution of H. minima in Korea, its abundance was quantified in the waters of 28 stations in all four seasons in 2016-2018 using the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction method. The overall morphology of H. minima HMMJ1604 was very similar to that of the Irish strain H. minima JK2. However, the Korean strain had five pores around the pore plate, whereas the Irish strain had six pores. When properly aligned, the sequences of the large subunit and internal transcribed spacer regions of the ribosomal DNA of the Korean strain were identical to those of the Irish strain. This species was detected in the waters of 26 out of 28 stations, but its abundance was greater than $1.0cells\;mL^{-1}$ at 8 stations. The highest abundance of H. minima was $44.4cells\;mL^{-1}$. Although this species was found in all seasons, its abundance was greater than $1.0cells\;mL^{-1}$ when the water temperature and salinity were $10.9-25.0^{\circ}C$ and 17.5-34.1, respectively. To the best knowledge, the present study reported for the first time that H. minima lives in the Pacific Ocean and is widely distributed in the Korean waters.

  • Nickel cobalt ferrite($Ni_{0.5}Co_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$) powder was prepared through the ceramic route by the calcination of a stoichiometric mixture of NiO, CoO and $Fe_2O_3$ at $1100^{\circ}C$. The pressed pellets of $Ni_{0.5}Co_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ were isothermally reduced in pure hydrogen at $800{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$. Based on the thermogravimetric analysis, the reduction behavior and the kinetic reaction mechanisms of the synthesized ferrite were studied. The initial ferrite powder and the various reduction products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, reflected light microscope and vibrating sample magnetometer to reveal the effect of hydrogen reduction on the composition, microstructure and magnetic properties of the produced Fe-Ni-Co alloy. The arrhenius equation with the approved mathematical formulations for the gas solid reaction was applied to calculate the activation energy($E_a$) and detect the controlling reaction mechanisms. In the initial stage of hydrogen reduction, the reduction rate was controlled by the gas diffusion and the interfacial chemical reaction. However, in later stages, the rate was controlled by the interfacial chemical reaction. The nature of the hydrogen reduction and the magnetic property changes for nickel cobalt ferrite were compared with the previous result for nickel ferrite. The microstructural development of the synthesized Fe-Ni-Co alloy with an increase in the reduction temperature improved its soft magnetic properties by increasing the saturation magnetization($M_s$) and by decreasing the coercivity($H_c$). The Fe-Ni-Co alloy showed higher saturation magnetization compared to Fe-Ni alloy.

  • 1.1~2.1eV의 직접 천이형 밴드갭을 가지는 전이금속 칼코게나이드(Transition Metal Dichalcogenide, TMDC)는 빛에 대한 반응성이 크고 구조적 특징상 2차원 물질들과의 수직 이종접합구조를 형성하기 용이하다는 장점으로 차세대 광전소자와 반도체소자 물질로서 대두되고 있다. 하지만 TMDC를 얻는 공정들의 한계로 인해 고품질, 대면적의 수직이종접합구조의 형성에 어려움이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 MOCVD 시스템을 제작하고, 단일층 TMDC 및 이들의 이종구조에 제조에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 특히, 버블러 타입의 유기금속화합물 소스를 활용하여, 반응기 내로 유입되는 소스의 농도와 유량을 정밀하게 조절함으로써 전면적으로 균일한 박막을 얻을 수 있다. MOCVD로 MoS2, WS2 박막을 성장시키고 주사전자현미경, UV-visible spectrophotometer, Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence 분석을 진행하여 균일한 박막을 성장시켰음을 확인하였다. 또한, MoS2 박막에 WS2 박막을 직접 성장시킴으로써 MoS2/WS2 수직 이종접합구조를 형성하였다.

  • The impacts of ice clouds on the energy budget of the Earth and their representation in climate models have been identified as important and unsolved problems. Ice clouds consist almost exclusively of non-spherical ice crystals with various shapes and sizes. To determine the influences of ice clouds on solar and infrared radiation as required for remote sensing retrievals and numerical models, knowledge of scattering and microphysical properties of ice crystals is required. A conventional method for representing the radiative properties of ice clouds in satellite retrieval algorithms and numerical models is to combine measured microphysical properties of ice crystals from field campaigns and pre-calculated single-scattering libraries of different shapes and sizes of ice crystals, which depend heavily on microphysical and scattering properties of ice crystals. However, large discrepancies between theoretical calculations and observations of the radiative properties of ice clouds have been reported. Electron microscopy images of ice crystals grown in laboratories and captured by balloons show varying degrees of complex morphologies in sub-micron (e.g., surface roughness) and super-micron (e.g., inhomogeneous internal and external structures) scales that may cause these discrepancies. In this study, the current idealized models representing morphologies of ice crystals and the corresponding numerical methods (e.g., geometric optics, discrete dipole approximation, T-matrix, etc.) to calculate the single-scattering properties of ice crystals are reviewed. Current problems and difficulties in the calculations of the single-scattering properties of atmospheric ice crystals are addressed in terms of cloud microphysics. Future directions to develop physically consistent ice-crystal models are also discussed.

  • In this study, (GaN)1-x(ZnO)x solid solution nanoparticles with a high zinc content are prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and subsequent nitridation. The structure and morphology of the samples are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The characterization results show a phase transition from the Zn and Ga-based oxides (ZnO or ZnGa2O4) to a (GaN)1-x(ZnO)x solid solution under an NH3 atmosphere. The effect of the precursor solution concentration and nitridation temperature on the final products are systematically investigated to obtain (GaN)1-x(ZnO)x nanoparticles with a high Zn concentration. It is confirmed that the powder synthesized from the solution in which the ratio of Zn and Ga was set to 0.8:0.2, as the initial precursor composition was composed of about 0.8-mole fraction of Zn, similar to the initially set one, through nitriding treatment at 700℃. Besides, the synthesized nanoparticles exhibited the typical XRD pattern of (GaN)1-x(ZnO)x, and a strong absorption of visible light with a bandgap energy of approximately 2.78 eV, confirming their potential use as a hydrogen production photocatalyst.

  • Backgroud: Ginsenoside compound K (GK) is a major metabolite of protopanaxadiol-type ginsenosides and has remarkable anticancer activities in vitro and in vivo. This work used an ionic cross-linking method to entrap GK within O-carboxymethyl chitosan (OCMC) nanoparticles (Nps) to form GK-loaded OCMC Nps (GK-OCMC Nps), which enhance the aqueous solubility and stability of GK. Methods: The GK-OCMC Nps were characterized using several physicochemical techniques, including x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, zeta potential analysis, and particle size analysis via dynamic light scattering. GK was released from GK-OCMC Nps and was conducted using the dialysis bag diffusion method. The effects of GK and GK-OCMC Nps on PC3 cell viability were measured by using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide assay. Fluorescent technology based on Cy5.5-labeled probes was used to explore the cellular uptake of GK-OCMC Nps. Results: The GK-OCMC NPs had a suitable particle size and zeta potential; they were spherical with good dispersion. In vitro drug release from GK-OCMC NPs was pH dependent. Moreover, the in vitro cytotoxicity study and cellular uptake assays indicated that the GK-OCMC Nps significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of GK toward the PC3 cells. GK-OCMC Nps also significantly promoted the activities of both caspase-3 and caspase-9. Conclusion: GK-OCMC Nps are potential nanocarriers for delivering hydrophobic drugs, thereby enhancing water solubility and permeability and improving the antiproliferative effects of GK.
