Serum levels of antioxidant vitamins and lipids were determined along with anthropometric measurements in 174 healthy male subjects with mean age of 50.3$\pm$6.8 years from Taegu area in Korea. Body mass index (BMI) and waist/hip(W/H) ratio of the subjects were 23.18$\pm$2.46 and 0.88$\pm$0.04, respectively and their systolic and distolic blood pressures were 127.8$\pm$15.5 and 83.9$\pm$10.8mmHg. Twenty one percent of the subject had BMI over 25. Average seum levels of total cholesterol, LDL- and HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride were 187.7$\pm$34.9, 117.6$\pm$33.5, 41.1$\pm$9.0 and 140.7$\pm$83.6mg/dl, respectively. Sixteen percent of the subject had LDL-chole-sterol over 130mg/dl. Serum level of lipid peroxide measured as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS) of the subject was 2.01$\pm$0.77 MDA nmoles/ml and those of $\alpha$-tocopherol, retinol. ascorbic acid and sum of $\alpha$- and $\beta$-carotene were 9.59$\pm$3.11$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 1.15$\pm$ 0.38$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 10.5$\pm$3.8$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml and 64.6$\pm$43.$\mu\textrm{g}$/dl, respectively. About 14% of the sujects had low vitamin E status of less than 7.0$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml,. while 6% had low vitamin C status of less than 4.0$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, Serum vitamin E showed positive correlations with total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride, but no correlation with TBARS. Fatty acids of serum total lipid were composed of 42.9% as saturnted. 19.3% as monounsaturated and 36.7% polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFA). N-6 and n-3 PUFA were 27.7% and 8.3% of total fatty acids. N-6/n-3 PUFA ratios were negatively correlated both with serum total cholesterol and TBARS.

To lessen oxygen concentrations in a wafer through modifying the length of graphite heaters, we investigated the influence of relative distance from heater to quartz crucible on temperature profile of hot-zone in Czochralski silicon-crystal growth by simulation. In particular, ATC temperature and power profiles as a function of different ingot body positions were investigated for five different heater designs; (a) typical side heater (SH), (b) short side heater-up (SSH-up), (c) short side heater-low (SSH-low), (d) bottom heater without side heater (Only-BH), and (e) side heater with bottom heater (SH + BH). It was confirmed that lower short side heater exhibited the highest ATC temperature, which was attributed to the longest distance from triple point to heater center. In addition, for the viewpoint of energy efficiency, it was observed that the typical side heater showed the lowest power because it heated more area of quartz crucible than that of others. This result provides the possibility to predict the feed-forward delta temperature profile as a function of various heater designs.

For the enhancement of ginsenoside production in hairy roots cultures of Panax ginseng, the uptake rate of inorganic elements and ginsenoside contents were investigated by different concentrations of about phosphorus (P $O_{4}$$^{[-10]}$ ) and nitrogen (N $H_{4}$$^{+}$, N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ ) sources. According to increased phosphorus and nitrogen sources, the uptake rate of $Mg^{2+}$ and F $e^{2+}$ in ginseng hairy roots were significantly increased. The uptake rate of F $e^{2+}$ in 5.15 mM N $H_{4}$$^{+}$ was higher at 47.5% than that in 20.6 mM, whereas that of C $u^{2+}$ in 10.3 mM were higher at 123.1% than that in 41.2 mM. These results indicated that phosphorus and nitrogen sources act not only elevated growth of hairy roots but also the uptake-enhancement of the irons and other ions. The optimum concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen sources for the contents of free sugars were different to kinds of free sugars. The optimum concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen sources for the ginsenoside formation in ginseng hairy roots cultures were highest at the most low concentration of all. The contents of ginsenoside-R $b_2$and -Rc in 0.31 mM P $O_{4}$$^{[-10]}$ were increased to 44.7% and 29.9% than that in 0.62 mM P $O_{4}$$^{[-10]}$ , respectively. The contents of ginsenoside-R $b_2$ and -Rc in 5.15 mM N $H_{4}$$^{+}$ were increased to 21.7% and 31.9% than that in 10.30 mM N $H_{4}$$^{+}$, respectively. The contents of ginsenoside-R $b_2$and -Rc in 4.7 mn N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ were also increased to 17.6% and 25.5% than that in 9.4 mM N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ , respectively. These results indicate that enhancement of the ginsenoside formation in ginseng hairy roots was feasible by new medium modulation of concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen sources.rogen sources.

지금까지 능동 구동 디스플레이의 TFT backplane에 사용하고 있는 채널 물질로는 수소화된 비정질 실리콘(a-Si:H)과 저온 폴리실리콘(low temperature poly-Si)이 대표적이다. 수소화된 비정질 실리콘은 TFT-LCD 제조에 주로 사용되는 물질로 제조 공정이 비교적 간단하고 안정적이며, 생산 비용이 낮고, 소자 간 특성이 균일하여 대면적 디스플레이 제조에 유리하다. 그러나 a-Si:H TFT의 이동도(mobility)가 1 cm2/Vs이하로 낮아 Full HD 이상의 대화면, 고해상도, 고속 동작을 요구하는 UD(ultra definition)급 디스플레이를 개발하는데 있어 한계 상황에 다다르고 있다. 또한 광 누설 전류(photo leakage current)의 발생을 억제하기 위해서 화소의 개구율(aperture ratio)을 감소시켜야하므로 패널의 투과율이 저하되고, 게이트 전극에 지속적으로 바이어스를 인가 시 TFT의 문턱전압(threshold voltage)이 열화되는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 문제점을 극복하기 위한 대안으로 근래 투명 산화물 반도체(transparent oxide semiconductor)가 많은 관심을 얻고 있다. 투명 산화물 반도체는 3 eV 이상의 높은 밴드갭(band-gap)을 가지고 있어 광 흡수도가 낮아 투명하고, 광 누설 전류의 영향이 작아 화소 설계시 유리하다. 최근 다양한 조성의 산화물 반도체들이 TFT 채널 층으로의 적용을 목적으로 활발하게 연구되고 있으며 ZnO, SnO2, In2O3, IGO(indium-gallium oxide), a-ZTO(amorphous zinc-tin-oxide), a-IZO (amorphous indium-zinc oxide), a-IGZO(amorphous indium-galliumzinc oxide) 등이 그 예이다. 이들은 상온 또는 $200^{\circ}C$ 이하의 낮은 온도에서 PLD(pulsed laser deposition)나 스퍼터링(sputtering)과 같은 물리적 기상 증착법(physical vapor deposition)으로 손쉽게 증착이 가능하다. 특히 이중에서도 a-IGZO는 비정질임에도 불구하고 이동도가 $10\;cm2/V{\cdot}s$ 정도로 a-Si:H에 비해 월등히 높은 이동도를 나타낸다. 이와 같이 a-IGZO는 비정질이 가지는 균일한 특성과 양호한 이동도로 인하여 대화면, 고속, 고화질의 평판 디스플레이용 TFT 제작에 적합하고, 뿐만 아니라 공정 온도가 낮은 장점으로 인해 플렉시블 디스플레이(flexible display)의 backplane 소재로서도 연구되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 rf sputtering을 이용하여 증착한 a-IGZO 박막에 대하여 열처리 조건 변화에 따른 a-IGZO 박막들의 광학적, 전기적 특성변화를 살펴보았고, 이와 더불어 a-IGZO 박막을 TFT에 적용하여 소자의 특성을 분석함으로써, 열처리에 따른 Transfer Curve에서의 우리가 요구하는 Threshold Voltage(Vth)의 변화를 관찰하였다.

Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) 박막 태양전지는 높은 효율과 낮은 제조비용, 높은 신뢰성으로 인해 박막 태양전지 중 가장 각광받고 있다. 특히 유리기판 대신 가볍고 유연한 철강소재나 플라스틱 소재를 이용하여 발전분야 외에 건물일체형, 수송용, 휴대용등 다양한 분야에 적용이 가능하다. 이러한 유연 기판을 이용한 CIGS 태양전지의 개발을 위해서는 기판의 특성에 따른 다양한 공정개발이 선행되어야 한다. Poly-imide와 같은 유연기판은 공정온도가 $400^{\circ}C$이하로 낮고 기판이 매우 얇아 기존 Mo 공정을 개선하여야한다. 이러한 유연기판의 특성을 고려하여 본 연구에서는 기존 bi-layer Mo의 bottom layer의 두께를 조절하여 박막의 strain을 조절하였다. 유연기판으로는 SKC KOLON에서 제조된 GL type의 기판을 사용하였다. 기판의 두께는 50um이다. 먼저 Mo의 bottom layer 두께 비율을 기존 12.5%에서 50%로 증가 시켰으며 전체 박막의 두께 역시 900nm에서 500nm로 두께를 감소시키며 실험을 실시하였다. 그 후 흡수층은 Co-Evaporation 방법을 이용하여 제조하였으며 이때 공정온도는 기존 공정온도에서 450, $400^{\circ}C$로 낮추어 흡수층을 제조하였다. 소자 제조 후 초기 Mo의 strain 개선과 저온공정이 적용되지 않은 경우 4.4%에서 공정 최적화 후 13%로 효율이 증가하였다. 제조된 흡수층은 SEM, XRF, XRD등을 이용하여 분석하였으며 그 외 일반적인 방법을 이용하여 Mo, CdS, TCO, Al grid를 제조하였다. AR 코팅은 제외 하였으며 제조된 소자는 솔라 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 효율 특성 분석을 실시하였으며 Q.E. 분석을 실시하였다.

Generally, a natural river discharge is highly regulated by the hydraulic structures, and the regulated flow is substantially different from natural inflow characteristics for the use of water resources planning. The natural inflow data are necessarily required for hydrologic analysis and water resources planning. This study aimed to develop an integrated model for more reliable simulation of daily dam inflow. First, a piecewise Kernel-Pareto distribution was used for rainfall simulation model, which can more effectively reproduce the low order moments (e.g. mean and median) as well as the extremes. Second, a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme was applied for the SAC-SMA rainfall-runoff model that is able to quantitatively assess uncertainties associated with model parameters. It was confirmed that the proposed modeling scheme is capable of reproducing the underlying statistical properties of discharge, and can be further used to provide a set of plausible scenarios for water budget analysis in water resources planning.

In this study, sampling and analytical procedures were evaluated for the determination of ambient levels of atmospheric PAH, both in gaseous and particulate phase. The method involves low-volume sampling and Soxhlet extraction of the filters and Tenax absorbent, followed by a clean-up stage using a silica column prior to analysis by reversed-phase HPLC with wavelength programmable fluorescence and UV detection. A total of 18 PAH were identified and quantified, all of which have been of environmental concern. In order to validate the methodology and to ensure compatibility of the results, the analytical method used for the determination of PAH was evaluated with respect to the efficiencies of extraction and clean-up procedure, HPLC separation, and lower limits of detection. In addition, substrate dependency of PAH recovery was investigated for the two types of fiters, i.e. glass fiber and PTFE filters.

In the gas separation process, the separation membranes have to not only show high gas transport and selectivity but also exhibit exceptional stability at high temperature and pressure. However, when the polymeric membranes (particularly, glassy polymers) are exposed to the condensable gases (i.e., CO2, H2S, hydrocarbon, etc.), the polymer chains are prone to swell, leading to low stability. As a result, the plasticization behavior reduces the gas selectivity in the separation of mixture gases at high pressures and thus results in limited applications to the separation processes. To address these issues, many strategies have been studied such as thermal treatment, polymer blending, thermally rearrangement, mixed-matrix membranes, cross-linking, etc. In this review, we will understand the plasticization behavior and suggest potential methods based on the previously reported studies.
