Radioisotope (Nuclear) battery using $^{63}Ni$ was prepared as beta cell. The electroplated $^{63}Ni$ on Ni foil is fabricated, and beta cell and photovoltaic hybrid battery was designed to use at both day and night in space project. A Ni-plating solution is prepared by dissolving metal particles including $^{62}Ni$ and $^{63}Ni$ from neutron irradiation of ($n,{\gamma}$). Electroplating solution of a chloride bath consists on nickel ions in HCl, $H_3BO_3$, and KOH. The deposition was carried out at current density of $10mA\;cm^{-2}$. The prepared beta source was attached on a PN junction and measured I-V properties. The power output at activity of 0.07 mCi and 0.45 mCi were 0.55 pW and 2.69 nW, respectively.

To synthesize Fe/Ni nanocatalysts loaded on carbon black, Iron(II) acetylacetonate and nickel (II) acetylacetonate and were reduced to Fe and Ni metallic nanoparticles by a spontaneous reduction reaction. The distribution of the Fe and Ni nanoparticles was observed by transmission electron microscopy, and the loading weight of Fe/Ni nanocatalysts on the carbon black was measured by thermogravimetric analyzer. The elemental ratio of Fe and Ni was estimated by energy dispersive x-ray analyzer. It was found that the loading weight of Fe/Ni nanoparticles was 6.23 wt%, and the elemental ratio of Fe and Ni was 0.53:0.40. Specific surface area was measured by BET analysis instrument and I-V characteristics were estimated.

Theoretical study of vibration distinctiveness of rotating cylindrical are examined for three volume fraction laws viz.: polynomial, exponential and trigonometric. These laws control functionally graded material composition in the shell radius direction. Functionally graded materials are controlled from two or more materials. In practice functionally graded material comprised of two constituent materials is used to form a cylindrical shell. For the current shell problem stainless steel and nickel are used for the shell structure. A functionally graded cylindrical shell is sanctioned into two types by interchanging order of constituent materials from inner and outer side for Type I and Type II cylindrical shell arrangement. Fabric composition of a functionally graded material in a shell thickness direction is controlled by volume fraction law. Variation of power law exponent brings change in frequency values. Influence of this physical change is investigated to evade future complications. This procedure is capable to cater any boundary condition by changing the axial wave number. But for simplicity, numerical results have been evaluated for clamped- simply supported rotating cylindrical shells. It has been observed from these results that shell frequency is bifurcated into two parts: one is related to the backward wave and other with forward wave. It is concluded that the value of backward frequency is some bit higher than that forward frequency. Influence of volume fraction laws have been examined on shell frequencies. Backward and forward frequency curves for a volume fraction law are upper than those related to two other volume fraction laws. The results generated furnish the evidence regarding applicability of present shell model and also verified by earlier published literature.

Fe-Ni nanocatalysts loaded on carbon black were prepared via spontaneous reduction reaction of iron (II) acetylacetonate and nickel (II) acetylacetonate in dry process. Their morphology and elemental analysis were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray analyzer. The loading weight of the nanocatalysts was measured by thermogravimetric analyze and the surface area was measured by BET analysis. TEM observation showed that Fe and Ni nanoparticles was well dispersed on the carbon black and their average particle size was 4.82 nm. The loading weight of Fe-Ni nanocatalysts on the carbon black was 6.83-7.32 wt%, and the value increased with increasing iron (II) acetylacetonate content. As the Fe-Ni loading weight increased, the specific surface area decreased significantly by more than 50%, because Fe-Ni nanoparticles block the micropores of carbon black. I-V characteristics showed that water electrolysis performance increased with increasing Ni nanocatalyst content.

고성능 니켈/금속수소 축전지를 개발하기 위하여 전극용량도 비교적 높고, 합금가격이 저렴한 Mm계 전극에 대하여 P-C-T 특성, 충방전 특성, microencapsulation 방법 및 그 효과 등에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. P-C-T 특성조사로부터 플라토압력, 수소저장량을 구하였는데, Mm계 합금인 경우는 각각 0.4기압, 310mAh/g으로 나타났다. Microencapsulation 처리를 함으로써 도전재를 혼합한 전극보다 전극용량 및 전극의 안정성을 향상시켰으며, 또한 전처리없이 microencapsulation처리가 가능하였다. Microencapsulation 처리한 Mm계 합금의 전극용량은 240~250 mAh/(0.2 C)이었다.

고성능 니켈-철 축전지를 개발하기 위하여 알칼리 축전지로 이론적 용량밀도가 높고 저공해성, 저렴한 가격, 자원의 풍부성 등의 우수한 장점을 가지고 있는 철전극에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 충방전반응의 특성을 전위주사법, SEM, XRD 분석으로 조사하였으며, 또한 전극용량을 정전류 충방전시험법으로 조사하였다. 철의 순도와 입자크기가 전극용량에 크게 영향을 미쳤으며, 첨가제 $Na_2S$는 전극의 부동태화를 방지하고 수소과전압을 높여 전극용량을 20% 정도 증대시켰다. 전극의 안정성과 용량은 Ni-fibrex와 foamed Ni집전체를 사용하여 증대시켰으며, 또한 소결온도에 영향을 받았다. 전극용량은 350 mAh/g(0.2 C)으로 나타났는데, 이는 이용률 36%에 해당한다.

Aflatoxin $M_1$ ($AFM_1$) after its bioconversion from aflatoxin $B_1$ in animal liver becomes the part of milk while heavy metals get entry into milk and milk products during handling in the supply chain. Aflatoxin $M_1$ and heavy metals being toxic compounds are needed to be monitored continuously to avoid any ailments among consumers of foods contaminated with such toxicants. Thirteen commercially available infant formula milk (IFM) brands available in Pakistani markets were analyzed for the quantitative determination of $AFM_1$ and heavy metals through ELISA and atomic absorption spectrophotometer, respectively. $AFM_1$ was found positive in 53.84% samples while 30.76% samples were found exceeding the maximum EU limit i.e. $0.025 {\mu}g/kg$ for $AFM_1$ in IFM. Heavy metals lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) were found below the detection limits in any of the sample, whereas the concentrations of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) ranged between 45.40-97.10, 29.72-113.50 and <$0.001-50.90 {\mu}g/kg$, respectively. The concentration of Fe in all the tested brands was found in normal ranges while the concentrations of Zn and Ni were found exceeding the standard norms. Elevated levels of $AFM_1$, Zn and Ni in some of the tested IFM brands indicated that a diet completely based on these IFM brands might pose sever health implications in the most vulnerable community i.e., infants.

In this paper, Part II, we realized the Serpentine Laminating Micromirer (SLM) which was proposed in the accompanying paper, Part I, by means of the injection molding process in mass production. In the SLM, the higher level of chaotic mixing can be achieved by combining two general chaotic mixing mechanisms of splitting/recombination and chaotic advection by the successive arrangement of 'F'-shape mixing units in two layers. Mold inserts for the injection molding process of the SLM were fabricated by SU-8 photolithography and nickel electroplating. The SLM was realized by injection molding of COC (cyclic olefin copolymer) with the fabricated mold inserts and thermal bonding of two injection molded COC substrates. To compare the mixing performance, a T-type micromixer was also fabricated. Mixing performances of micromixers were experimentally characterized in terms of an average mixing color intensity of a pH indicator, phenolphthalein. Experimental results show that the SLM has much better mixing performance than the I-type micromixer and chaotic mixing was successfully achieved from the SLM over the wide range of Reynolds number (Re). The chaotic micromixer, SLM proposed in this study, could be easily integrated in Micro-Total-Analysis- System , Lab-on-a-Chip and so on.

페로브스카이트 구조를 가지는 전이금속 질화물인 $FeCo_3N$과 $NiCo_3N$의 전자구조를 전전자 총퍼텐셜선형보강평면파(all electron FLAPW) 방법에 의해 계산하고, 그 결과를 $Co_4N$의 전자구조와 비교함으로써 꼭지점에 위치한 Co 원자(CoI)를 Fe과 Ni 원자로 대치하였을 때의 영향을 탐구하였다. CoI원자를 각기 Fe와 Ni 원자로 대치한 경우에 면심위치의 CoII 원자의 자기모멘트는 1.458과 $1.494\;{\mu}_B$으로 대치하지 않은 경우와 비교하여 커다란 차이가 없었다. $FeCo_3N$과 $NiCo_3N$에서 꼭지점에 위치한 Fe와 Ni 원자의 자기모멘트는 각기 3.086과 $0.795\;{\mu}_B$로 거의 포화된 값을 가졌으며, 국소적 자성을 나타냈다.
