  • Re-oxidized nitrided oxides which have been investigated as alternative gate oxide for Metal- Oxide -Semiconductor field effect devices were grown by conventional furnace process using pure NH$_3$ and dry $O_2$ gas, and were characterized via a Fowler-Nordheim Tunneling electron injection technique. We studied Ig-Vg characteristics, leakage current, $\Delta$Vg under constant current stress from electrical characteristics point of view and TDDB from reliability point of view of MOS capacitors with SiO$_2$, NO, ONO dielectrics. Also, we studied the effect of stress temperature (25, 50, 75, 100, and 1$25^{\circ}C$). Overall, our results indicate that optimized re-oxidized nitrided oxide shows improved Ig-Vg characteristics, leakage current over the nitrided oxide and SiO$_2$. It has also been shown that re-oxidized nitrided oxide have better TDDB performance than SiO$_2$ while maintaining a similar temperature and electric field dependence. Especially, the Qbd is increased by about 1.5 times.

  • The piezoelectric ZnO thin films were deposited onto Al/Si substrate in order to figure out the crystalline and the residual stress of deposited films. As the $Ar/O_2$ gas ratio is increased, c-axis orientation of deposited films is significantly enhanced and also the residual stresses of ZnO films are all compressive. They are decreased from -1.2 GPa to -950 MPa as the $Ar/O_2$ gas ratio is increased. A diaphragm-based piezoelectric microspeaker fabricated on ONO films shows about 14 mPa output pressure at 1 kHz with $8V_{peak-to-peak}$.

  • Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy has been applied to study the supersonic jet of radicals of nitric oxide (NO) and atomic iodine produced in the flash pyrolysis of precursors n-butylnitrite (CH₃(CH₂)₃ONO) and allyl iodide (C₃$H_5$I), respectively. The systematic population analysis with spectral simulations demonstrates that the precursors are efficiently pyrolyzed and that radical beams show a substantial supersonic cooling. In addition, absence of local equilibrium was observed in the distributions of two electronic spin-orbit states ²Π$_{1/2}$ and ²Π$_{3/2}$ of NO products and can be rationalized in terms of the efficiency of collision-induced energy transfer rates.

  • Purpose: To evaluate the legitimacy of a diagnosis of ASC-H in 5 cases which were followed up monthly for over 2 years with both cytology and HPV testing. Methods: Some 5 cases out of a total of 25.0 self-sampled Pap test patients diagnosed as ASC-H provided 119 specimens over 2 years, with HPV-DNA testing perormed using a E6 primer. Results: Cases 1, 2 and 3 showed SIL after the ASC-H diagnosis, while cases 4 and 5 showed and maintained NILM. Cases 1, 2 and 3 were further characterized by small atypical compressed binucleated cells, in which HPV was detected by in situ PCR. Case 4 showed a high N/C ratio in cells in sheets with a mild increase in chromatin. Case 5 demonstrated a high N/C ratio in small cells with no increase in chromatin. Conclusion: The finding of a compressed binucleated cells can define the difference between degenerated endocervical columnar cells and small atypical cells suggestive of HSIL. When small compressed binucleated squamous cells are detected, there may be a chance of continuing HPV infection and undetected SIL.

  • DNA methylation degree in the several murine brain and liver genes of different ages and after scrapie infection have been examined by using methylation-sensitive restriction endonuclease digestion. We found that the methylation of c-fos and c-myc in the brain and liver was increased during the late fetal to one month postnatal developmental periods. However, those of the SGP-2, $S100{\beta}$, APP950, PrP, and APLP1 genes were decreased at the same periods. The comparison of the DNA methylation patterns between scrapie infected brains and controls demonstrated there is no significant difference in methylation degree of scrapie-infected brains. These observations indicate that DNA methylation might be importantly related to the aging process. The scrapie-infected murine brain was not significantly developed more senescent than the same age-controls did.

  • The Fourth Assessment Report of IPCC predicted that global warming is already happening and it should be caused from the increase of greenhouse gases by the extension of human activities. These global changes will give a serious influence for human society. Global environment can be monitored by the earth observation using satellite. For the observation of global climate change and resolving the global warming process, satellite should be useful equipment and its detecting data contribute to social benefits effectively. JAXA (former NASDA) has made a new plan of the Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) for monitoring of global environmental change. SGLI (Second Generation GLI) onboard GCOM-C (Climate) satellite, which is one of this mission, provides an optical sensor from Near-DV to TIR. Characteristic specifications of SGLI are as follows; 1) 250 m resolutions over land and area along the shore, 2) Three directional polarization observation (red and NIR), and 3) 500 m resolutions temperature over land and area along shore. These characteristics are useful in many fields of social benefits. For example, multi-angular observation and 250 m high frequency observation give new knowledge in monitoring of land vegetation. It is expected that land products with land aerosol information by polarization observation are improved remarkably. We are studying these possibilities by ground data and satellite data.

  • We have investigated the material and electrical properties of $Bi_{4-x}La_xTi_3O_{12}$ (BLT) ferroelectric thin film for ferroelectric nonvolatile memory applications of capacitor type and single transistor type. The 120nm thick BLT films were deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ and $SiO_2/Nitride/SiO_2$ (ONO) substrates by the sol-gel spin coating method and were annealed at $700^{\circ}C$. It was observed that the crystallographic orientation of BLT thin films were strongly affected by the excess Bi content and the intermediate rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatment conditions regardeless of two type substrates. However, the surface microstructure and roughness of BLT films showed dependence of two different type substrates with orientation of (111) plane and amorphous phase. As increase excess Bi content, the crystallographic orientation of the BLT films varied drastically in BLT films and exhibited well-crystallized phase. Also, the conversion of crystallographic orientation at intermediate RTA temperature of above $450^{\circ}C$ started to be observed in BLT thin films with above excess 6.5% Bi content and the rms roughness of films is decreased. We found that the electrical properties of BLT films such as the P-V hysteresis loop and leakage current were effectively modulated by the crystallographic orientations change of thin films.

  • [Purpose] In vivo studies have demonstrated the ergogenic benefits of eleutherococcus senticosus (ES) supplementation. ES has been observed to enhance endurance capacity, improve cardiovascular function, and alter metabolic functions (e.g., increased fat utilization); however, the exact mechanisms involved remain unknown. We aimed to determine whether ES could effectively induce fat loss and improve muscle metabolic profiles through increases in lipolysis- and lipid metabolism-associated protein expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and C2C12 skeletal muscle cells, respectively, to uncover the direct effects of ES on adipocytes and skeletal muscle cells. [Methods] Different doses of ES extracts (0.2, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/mL) were added to cells (0.2 ES, 0.5 ES, and 1.0 ES, respectively) for 72 h and compared to the vehicle control (control). [Results] The intracellular triacylglycerol (TG) content significantly decreased (p < 0.05 for 0.2 ES, p < 0.01 for 0.5 ES and 1.0 ES) in 3T3-L1 cells. Adipose triglyceride lipase, which is involved in active lipolysis, was significantly higher in the 1.0 ES group than in the control group (p < 0.01) of 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In C2C12 cells, the mitochondrial protein voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) was significantly increased in the 1.0 ES group (p < 0.01). Furthermore, we found that 1.0 ES activated both 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in skeletal muscle cells (p < 0.01). [Conclusion] These findings suggest that ES extracts decreased TG content, presumably by increasing lipase in adipocytes and metabolism-associated protein expression as well as mitochondrial biogenesis in muscle cells. These effects may corroborate previous in vivo findings regarding the ergogenic effects of ES supplementation.
