  • The objectives of this study was to compare the physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of raw, microwave-treated, steam-treated and high temperature and pressure-treated garlic. The hardness and strength of microwave-treated and steam-treated garlic decreased compared to raw garlic. The hardness and softness increased but strength decreased in dried garlic-treated at $60^{\circ}C$ for 48 hr. The reducing sugar content of raw garlic was 0.041 g/100 g, and reducing sugar content of high temperature and pressure-treated garlic increased temperature. Total polyphenol content of microwave-treated and steam-treated decreased compared to raw garlic, while that of high temperature and pressure-treated increased with increasing temperature. $IC_{50}$ value of the electron donating ability of raw garlic was 3.07 mg/mL, and the highest $IC_{50}$ value was 2.16 mg/mL for microwave-treated garlic at the 4 min. The ABTS radical scavenging activity of raw garlic was 40.94 mg AEAC/mL, and the highest AEAC value was 76.51 mg AEAC/mL with high temperature and pressure-treated garlic at $150^{\circ}C$ at the 2 hr.

  • 차세대 디스플레이 구동 회로 소자를 위한 재료로서, Amorphous Oxide Semiconductor (AOS)가 주목받고 있다. AOS는 기존의 Amorphous Silicon과 비교하여 뛰어난 이동도를 가지고 있으며, 넓은 밴드 갭에 의한 투명한 광학적 특성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 장점을 이용하여, AOS 박막은 thin film transistor (TFT)의 active channel로 이용 되고 있다. 하지만, AOS를 이용한 TFT의 경우, 시간이 경과함에 따라 $O_2$$H_2O$ 흡착에 의해 전기적 특성이 변하는 현상이 있다. 이러한 현상은 소자의 신뢰성에 있어 중요한 문제가 된다. 이러한 문제를 연구하기 위해 본 논문에서는, AOS 박막을 이용하여 bottom 게이트형 TFT를 제작하였다. 이를 위해 먼저, p-type Si 위에 건식산화방식으로 $SiO_2$(100 nm)를 성장시켜 게이트 산화막으로 이용하였다. 그리고 Zn과 Sn이 1: 2의 조성비를 가진 ZnSnO (ZTO) 용액을 제조한 후, 게이트 산화막 위에 spin coating 하였다. Splin coating된 용액에 남아 있는 솔벤트를 제거하기 위해 10분 동안 $230^{\circ}C$로 열처리를 한 후, 포토리소그래피와 에칭 공정을 이용하여 ZTO active channel을 형성하였다. 그 후, 박막 내에 남아 있는 불순물을 제거하고 ZTO TFT의 전기적인 특성을 향상시키기 위하여, $600^{\circ}C$의 열처리를 30분 동안 진행 하여 junctionless형 TFT 제작을 완료 하였다. 제작된 소자의 시간 경과에 따른 열화를 확인하기 위하여, 대기 중에서 2시간마다 HP-4156B 장비를 이용하여 전기적인 특성을 확인 하였으며, 이러한 열화는 후처리 공정을 통하여 회복시킬 수 있었다. 열화의 회복을 위한 후처리 공정으로, 퍼니스를 이용한 고온에서의 열처리와 microwave를 이용하여 저온 처리를 이용하였다. 결과적으로, TFT는 소자가 제작된 이후, 시간에 경과함에 따라서 on/off ratio가 감소하여 열화되는 경향을 보여 주었다. 이러한 현상은, TFT 소자의 ZTO back-channel에 대기 중에 있는 $O_2$$H_2O$의 분자의 물리적인 흡착으로 인한 것으로 보인다. 그리고 추가적인 후처리 공정들에 통해서, 다시 on/off ratio가 회복 되는 현상을 확인 하였다. 이러한 추가적인 후처리 공정은, 열화된 소자에 퍼니스에 의한 고온에서의 장시간 열처리, microwave를 이용한 저온에서 장시간 열처리, 그리고 microwave를 이용한 저온에서의 단 시간 처리를 수행 하였으며, 모든 소자에서 성공적으로 열화 되었던 전기적 특성이 회복됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는, 저온임에도 불구하고, microwave를 이용함으로 인하여, 물리적으로 흡착된 $O_2$$H_2O$가 짧은 시간 안에 ZTO TFT의 back-channel로부터 탈착이 가능함과 동시에 소자의 특성을 회복 가능 함 의미한다.

  • Dissolution procedure of vanadium pentoxide, which is widely used as a catalyst for production of sulfuric acid or an oxide reaction of the numerous organic compounds, was investigated. Reagent of vanadium pentoxide was completely dissolved in aqua regia-$H_2O_2$-HF solution, but plate type of vanadium pentoxide sample was not clearly dissolved with mixed acids. Thus, in order to establish the dissolution procedure for plate type of vanadium pentoxide, the solubility of vanadium pentoxide was investigated through comparison of acid treatment-fusion and microwave digestion methods. The optimized acid for dissolution of vanadium compound was found to be mixing acids of aqua regia, $H_2O_2$ and HF. Acid-fusion and microwave digestion methods have a similar property in the solubility of vanadium compound, but the latter was more quick and convenient procedure. The content of vanadium pentoxide was found to be $97.9{\pm}0.9%$ using an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer after dissolution of a sample with the microwave digestion system.

  • Characteristics of heating and drying of Canadian-imported Douglas-fir timber using microwave in order to secure convenience and quality of drying timber and to get basic data for secondary conservation treatment are as follows: As the results of analysis of change curves of internal temperature of the timber after irradiating it, round timber and board timber showed stable heat distribution, heat consumption and surface water-content in heating with 30kW for 30 minutes and 120 minutes and with 40kW for 3 minutes and 9 minutes, respectively. Especially, surface water-content distribution according to heating by microwave showed very even leveling and water-content decrease rate was also more 30% compared to its weight showing excellent dry efficiency. And in case of soaking timbers into liquid chemicals for secondary conservation according to the analysis results of heat consumption, it is expected that large amount of preservative will be permeated. Therefore, timber heated by microwave is remarkably available for using industrial materials and developing secondary utilized products with its fast water-content decrease and dryness and higher heat consumption.

  • The purpose of this study was to quantitatively assess treatment effect of physical therapy on experimentally-induced masseter muscle fatigue by two parameters of muscle stiffness and elasticity. Three physical therapeutic modalities inducing electroacupunture stimulation therapy(EAST), Microwave diathermy and low-level laser therapy(LLLT) were compared. 10 healthy volunteers with normal occlusion (mean age of $26.3{\pm}1.16$ years, M:F=1:1) were participated in this study. All subjects were asked to chew gum on the right side until they felt pain(more and VAS 5 (0 to 10)) and their masseter muscles were examined with a tactile sensor in order to evaluate changes of stiffness and elasticity according to gum chewing and three physical therapeutic modalities. Subjective discomfort or pain was self-estimated by VAS as well. Unilateral gum chewing increased stiffness and decreased elasticity only on the chewing side but VAS increased on the both sides(p<0.05). EAST or Microwave diathermy greatly decreased stiffness and VAS and increased elasticity(p<0.05) but LLLT did not exhibit significant difference. From the results of this study, it is concluded that both EAST and Microwave diathermy have favorable effect on stiffness and elasticity of muscles and pain relief while effect of LLLT is not reliable. In addition, experimental unilateral gum chewing compromises stiffness and elasticity of masseter muscles only the chewing side while subjective discomfort or pain can be felt on the both sides.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate how microwave drying, a method to minimize the scent and physicochemical changes of the final products, affects the quality characteristics of various herbs according to treatment intensity (pulse and continuous waves) and time. In the current study, different physicochemical qualities, such as weight change, moisture content, water activity, color, and microbial growth, of five different Korean herbs were analyzed after microwave drying. The results clearly showed that the pulse wave method was a more effective approach than the continuous wave method for maintaining the physicochemical properties of herbs. Furthermore, pulse wave drying lead to efficient microbial death in various herbs after a short time. Thus, microwave drying with a pulse wave can be applied to herb processing and packaging technology while minimizing the quality changes of herbs.

  • We have investigated the effect of surface passivation for crystalline silicon solar cell using ozone-based atomic layer deposited (ALD) $Al_2O_3$. We examined passivation properties such as uniformity, carrier lifetime, thickness, negative fixed charge density at AlOx/Si interface, and reflectance. The influences of process temperature and heat treatment were investigated using microwave photoconductance decay (PCD). Ozone-based ALD $Al_2O_3$ film shows the best carrier lifetime at lower deposition temperature than $H_2O$-based ALD.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the cause of microbiological contamination in yogurt and evaluate the effect of physicochemical treatment on the growth inhibition of Hanseniaspora uvarum isolated from yogurt. The yeast strain Hanseniaspora uvarum Y1 was subjected to heat and pH treatments. H. uvarum Y1 was killed at $70^{\circ}C$ and $80^{\circ}C$ after 15 min and survived in a wide pH range from pH 2 to 9. However, it did not survive under pH 1 and over pH 10. In a disk diffusion susceptibility test on H. uvarum Y1, a clear zone (5 mm) of growth inhibition was observed upon treatment with electrolyzed water. The effect of ozone gas on the growth of H. uvarum Y1 was evaluated by viable cell count. Initial cell numbers of $10^2$ and $10^3$ CFU/mL of H. uvarum Y1 were completely killed by treatment for 10 and 30 min, respectively. H. uvarum Y1 was also sterilized by microwave treatment for 1 min. When treated with gamma-irradiation, the rate of killing of H. uvarum Y1 was proportional to the irradiation dose. and complete killing occurred at a dose of 50 kGy.

  • $Pb_{1-x}MoO_4:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ phosphors with various doping concentrations of $Er^{3+}$ and $Yb^{3+}$ ($x=Er^{3+}+Yb^{3+}$, $Er^{3+}=0.05$, 0.1, 0.2, and $Yb^{3+}=0.2$, 0.45) are successfully synthesized using a microwave sol-gel method, and the up-conversion photoluminescence properties are investigated. Well-crystallized particles, which are formed after heat treatment at $900^{\circ}C$ for 16 h, exhibit a fine and homogeneous morphology with particle sizes of $2-5{\mu}m$. Under excitation at 980 nm, the $Pb_{0.7}MoO_4:Er_{0.1}Yb_{0.2}$ and $Pb_{0.5}MoO_4:Er_{0.05}Yb_{0.45}$ particles exhibit a strong 525 nm emission band, a weak 550 nm emission band in the green region, and a very weak 655 nm emission band in the red region. The Raman spectra of the doped particles indicate the presence of strong peaks at higher and lower frequencies induced by the disordered structures of $Pb_{1-x}MoO_4$ through the incorporation of the $Er^{3+}$ and $Yb^{3+}$ ions into the crystal lattice, which results in the unit cell shrinkage accompanying the new phase formation of the $MoO_{4-x}$ group.
