The synthesis of high purity and ultra-fine $BaTiO_3$ by precipitation with gaseous $NH_3$ as precipitator was investigated to find an alternative process to solve various problems of recent wet methods. A synthesis process for $BaTiO_3$ powder using $NH_3$ gas as a precipitator in a bubble column reactor was experimentally successful in developing the production process of piezoelectric ceramic $BaTiO_3$ powder. And a 2.33m1/sec is approprite for the feed flow rate, $BaTiO_3$ powder produced under above the condition is spherical type, its particle size was about $0.2{\mu}m$.

In this paper, we proposed MBDD(Modified Binary Decision Diagram) as a multi-level logic synthesis method and a vertex of MBDD to NMOS transistors matching. A vertex in MBDD is matched to a set of NMOS transistors. MBDD structure can be achieved through transformation steps from BDD structure. MBDD can represent the same function with less vertices less number of NMOS transistors, consequently capacitance of the circuit can be reduced. Thus the power dissipation can be reduced. We applied MBDD to a full odder and a 4-2compressor. Comparing the 4-2compressor block with other synthesis logic, 31.2% reduction and 19.9% reduction was achieved in numbers of transistors and power dissipation respectively. In this simulation we used 0.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ fabrication parameters.

The combination of methane-chemical activation and Self-propagating High-temperature synthesis (SHS) has widened the possibilities for both methods. For YBCO systems the investigation showed that a short-term mechano-chemical activation of initial powders before SHS leads to single-phase and ultra-fine products. A new technique for preparation ultra-fine high-temperature superconductors of YBCO composition with a grain size d < $1{\mu}m$ is developed. The specific feature of the technique is formation of the $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ crystalline lattice directly from an X-ray amorphous state arising as a result of mechanical activation of the original oxide mixture. The technique allows the stage of formation of any intermediate reaction products to be ruled out. X-ray and magnetic studies of ultra-fine high temperature superconductors (HTS) are carried out. Dimension effects associated with the microstructure peculiarities are revealed. A considerable enhancement of inter-grain critical currents is found to take place in the ultra-fine samples investigated.

The production of tin oxide ($SnO_2$) microrods on iridium (Ir)-coated substrates was achieved through the thermal evaporation of Sn powders in which a sufficiently high $O_2$ partial pressure was employed. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the product consisted of microrods with diameters that ranged from 0.9 to $40\;{\mu}m$. X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and selected area electron diffraction indicated that the microrods were $SnO_2$ with a rutile structure. As the microrod tips were free of metal particles, it was determined that the growth of $SnO_2$ microrods via the present route was dominated by a vapor-solid mechanism. The thickening of rod-like structures was related to the utilization of sufficiently high $O_2$ partial pressure during the synthesis process, whereas low $O_2$ partial pressure facilitated the production of thin rods.

YAG:Tb3+ as green phosphor were studied for the development of low voltage FED phosphor prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. We changed the concentration of luminescence center ion Tb3+ in hydrothermal reaction of which conditions were at 8M NH4OH as mineralizer, at 35$0^{\circ}C$ for 12hrs. As results, we could finally get the YAG:Tb3+ (Y3-xTbxAl5O12) powder of which particle size was about 0.2~1.0${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The excitation spectra and the green emitted spectra of YAG:Tb3+ phosphor powder were observed. When we doped 0.25 mol Tb to YAG, we could observe the maximum cathodoluminescence from YAG:Tb3+ phosphor and the chromaticity coordinate of the phosphor was shown x=0.35, y=0.56 in CIE1931 diagram.

YAG(Y3Al5O12) as host material of YAG:Tb3+ was studied via hydrothermal synthesis of metal hydroxides. We changed the kind of mineralizer, the concentrations and process conditions in hydrothermal synthesis. As a result, we found, acicular YAG powders were obtained by the use of KOH as a mineralizer, the concentration of KOH affected the shape and size of YAG powder. Fine grained YAG were perpared by the use of NH4OH as a mineralizer and the concentration of NH4OH affected crystal phases but did not affect particle size. We could finally get the spherical looking YAG powder at 8 M NH4OH and at 35$0^{\circ}C$ for 12h. The average particle size was about 0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

The manuscript reports synthesis of exceptionally stable gold nanoparticles (GNPs) using Momordica charantia fruit extract. The synthesis approach was optimized by refining three experimental variables including source of the fruit extract (peel, seed, and seed coat), pH of the solution, and temperature of the reaction medium. As synthesized GNPs showed excellent stability against various thiolated compounds (e.g., thioglycolic acid, thiourea, ${\text\tiny{L}}-cystine$, 1-dodecanethiol, and cysteamine hydrochloride). Moreover, these nanoparticles showed distinctive colorimetric responses against $Cd^{2+}$ and thiophenol (TP) from their potential interferences. The limit of detection (LOD) values for $Cd^{2+}$ and TP were determined as 0.186 and $0.154{\mu}M$, respectively.

The effects of insect growth regulator Dimilin which interfere with the synthesis of chitin in the cuticle of insect larvae were investigated at various concentrations using the crab larvae of Hemigrapsus sanguineus. The larvae were cultured at control, 0.5, 1, 5 and 10 $\mu g$ Dimilin solutions and three replicate experiments were carried out to give correct analysis. Significant differences in percent mortality have occurred between control and 10$\mu g$ when the larvae were exposed to Dimilin whereas no differences were found between 5 and 10$\mu g$ Dimilin concentrations. If lethal concentration is defined as concentration at which less than 10 percent of crab larvae reach to the last zoeal stage from hatching it can be concluded that insect growth regulator Dimilin is lethal to the larvae of Hemigrapsus sanguineus at 5 and 10$\mu g$ Dimilin.

Effect or mercury chloride on the synthesis or $NO_2^-$ and ATP were observed in EMT-6 cells which were cultured with cytokines$(IL-1\alpha\;and\;IFN-\gamma)$ and various concentrations of mercury chloride from 0.05 to $0.8{\mu}M$. Viability of EMT-6 cells were observed above 90% in almost groups. There were not significant differences in the viability between mercury supplemented groups and control group. It suggests viability of EMT-6 cells were not influenced by these concentrations of mercury chloride. Results of the synthesis of nitrite showed significant time and group effect. There is a significant interaction effect between concentration of mercury chloride and culture time. The effect of various concentration of mercury chloride is not the same for all levels of culture time. There were significant differences in the synthesis of nitrite between mercury chloride supplemented groups and control group, and the synthesis of nitrite in EMT-6 cell by the supplement of mercury chloride was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner. Results of the synthesis of ATP showed a significant group effect, and the time main effect and the $Group{\times}Time$ interaction were also significant. There were significant differences in the synthesis of ATP between mercury chloride supplemented groups and control group, and the synthesis of ATP in EMT-6 cell by the supplement of mercury chloride was significantly decreased in a dose - dependent manner. These results suggest that the disorder of cell mediated immunity by mercury chloride could be related to the inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis which will be caused by the decreased synthesis of ATP.

Energy saving is one of the most important factors for profits in marine transportation. In order to reduce the specific fuel oil consumption, the ship's propulsion efficiency must be increased as much as possible. The propulsion efficiency depends upon a combination of propulsion engine and propeller that has better efficiency as lower rotational speed. As the engine has lower speed the variation of rotational torque become larger because of the longer delay time in fuel oil injection process. In this study, robust control theory is applied to the design of engine speed controllers which are sub-optimal $H_{\infty}$ controller, $H_{\infty}$ loop-shaping controller and ${\mu}$-synthesis controller considering robust stability and robust performance. And the validity of these three controllers is investigated through the results of computer simulation.
