LiMn$_2$O$_4$ compounds were synthesized by calcining a mixture of LiOH and MnO$_2$(CMD) at 47$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 h and then calcining again at $650^{\circ}C$ to 90$0^{\circ}C$ fur 48 h in air with intermediate grinding. All the synthesized samples exhibited XRD patterns for the cubic spinel phase with a space group Fd3m. The lattice parameter increased gradually as the sintering temperature rose. The electrochemical cells were charged and discharged fur 20 cycles at a current density 300$\mu$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ between 3.5 V and 4.3 V. The voltage vs. discharge capacity curves for all the samples showed two plateaus. The LiMn$_2$O$_4$ sample calcined at 90$0^{\circ}C$ had the largest first discharge capacity. This sample exhibited the best crystallinity, had relatively large lattice parameter and had relatively large particles with rectatively homogeneous size. All the samples showed good cycling performances. Among all the samples, the LiMn$_2$O$_4$ calcined at 85$0^{\circ}C$ had relatively large first discharge capacity and very good cycling performance. The addition of excess LiOH and the mixing in ethanol considered to help the formation of the more LiMn$_2$O$_4$ phase per unit weight sample and the more stable LiMn$_2$O$_4$phase. These led to the larger discharge capacities and the better cycling performances. The cyclic voltammograms fur the second cycle of the LiMn$_2$O$_4$ samples showed the oxidation and reduction peaks around 4.05 V and 4.18 V and around 4.08 V and 3.94 V, respectively. The larger first discharge capacity of the sample calcined at the higher temperature is related to the larger lattice parameter.

Electrochemical surface treatment is commonly used to form a thin, rough, and porous oxidation layer on the surface of titanium. The purpose of this study was to investigate the formation of nanotubular titanium oxide arrays during short anodization processing. The specimen used in this study was 99.9% pure cp-Ti (ASTM Grade II) in the form of a disc with diameter of 15 mm and a thickness of 1 mm. A DC power supplier was used with the anodizing apparatus, and the titanium specimen and the platinum plate ($3mm{\times}4mm{\times}0.1mm$) were connected to an anode and cathode, respectively. The progressive formation of $TiO_2$ nanotubes was observed with FE-SEM (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy). Highly ordered $TiO_2$ nanotubes were formed at a potential of 20 V in a solution of 1M $H_3PO_4$ + 1.5 wt.% HF for 10 minutes, corresponding with steady state processing. The diameters and the closed ends of $TiO_2$ nanotubes measured at a value of 50 cumulative percent were 100 nm and 120 nm, respectively. The $TiO_2$ nanotubes had lengths of 500 nm. As the anodization processing reached 10 minutes, the frequency distribution for the diameters and the closed ends of the $TiO_2$ nanotubes was gradually reduced. Short anodization processing for $TiO_2$ nanotubes of within 10 minutes was established.

$Y_2O_3$-based metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure on p-Si(100) has been studied. Films were prepared by UHV reactive ionized cluster beam deposition (r-ICBD) system. The base pressure of the system was about $1 \times 10^{-9}$ -9/ Torr and the process pressure $2 \times 10^{-5}$ Torr in oxygen ambience. Glancing X-ray diffraction(GXRD) and in-situ reflection high energy electron diffracton(RHEED) analyses were performed to investigate the crystallinity of the films. The results show phase change from amorphous state to crystalline one with increasingqr acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. It is also found that the phase transformation from $Y_2O_3$(111)//Si(100) to $Y_2O_3$(110)//Si(100) in growing directions takes place between $500^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. Especially as acceleration voltage is increased, preferentially oriented crystallinity was increased. Finally under the condition of above substrate temperature $700^{\circ}C$ and acceleration voltage 5kV, the $Y_2O_3$films are found to be grown epitaxially in direction of $Y_2O_3$(1l0)//Si(100) by observation of transmission electron microscope(TEM). Capacitance-voltage and current-voltage measurements were conducted to characterize Al/$Y_2O_3$/Si MIS structure with varying acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. Deposited $Y_2O_3$ films of thickness of nearly 300$\AA$ show that the breakdown field increases to 7~8MV /cm at the same conditon of epitaxial growing. These results also coincide with XPS spectra which indicate better stoichiometric characteristic in the condition of better crystalline one. After oxidation the breakdown field increases to 13MV /cm because the MIS structure contains interface silicon oxide of about 30$\AA$. In this case the dielectric constant of only $Y_2O_3$ layer is found to be $\in$15.6. These results have demonstrated the potential of using yttrium oxide for future VLSI/ULSI gate insulator applications.

The formation of volatile fatty acids(VFAs) and changes in pH, oxidation and reduction potential(Eh) and acid volatile sulfide(AVS) with the addition of yellow clay were investigated using microcosm systems to examine the effects of yellow clay dispersion on the anaerobic decomposition of Cochlodinium polykrikoides in marine sediments. The acetate concentration reached a maximum by day 4 and was 1.2-1.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (224-270 vs. 333 uM). The formate concentration reached a maximum by day 1 and was 1.3-2.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (202-439 vs. 563 uM). The propionate concentration reached a maximum by day 2 and was 1.5-1.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (32.6 vs. 57.2 uM). After the amounts of acetate, formate and propionate peaked the levels dropped dramatically due to the utilization by sulfate reducing bacteria. The Eh of the samples treated with yellow clay was similar to the untreated sample on day 0 but was higher in the sample treated with yellow clay(140-206 mV) from days 4 to 17. AVS started to form on day 3 and this was sustained until day 6, and 1.2-2.2 fold less was produced in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (40.2-69.3 vs. 83.2-93.8 mg/L). Accordingly, during the anaerobic decomposition of C. polykrikoides in marine sediments, yellow clay dispersal seems to suppress the reduction state of Eh and the formation of volatile fatty acids(acetate, formate and propionate) used as an energy source by sulfate reducing bacteria, indicating that this process controls the production of hydrogen sulfide that negatively affects marine organisms and the marine sediment environment.

BACKGROUND: Most of the researches on the dye removal using ozonation have been focused on the removal efficiency. However, the research on their removal characteristics and mechanism according to the reaction time has been still insufficient. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, the effects of initial pH and dye concentration with reaction time on the degradation characteristics of methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) by ozonation were evaluated. The degradation efficiency of MB by ozonation increased with increasing pH. On the other hand, the degradation efficiency of MO by ozonation did not show a significant difference with varing pH. The both MO and MB by ozonation were decomposed within 30 min irrespective of the dye concentration, but the decomposition rates of dyes were faster at lower initial dye concentration. The decomposition efficiency of total organic carbon (TOC) in each dye solution by ozonation was low, which was found to be effective for partial decomposition such as decolorization rather than complete degradation of the dye. CONCLUSION: Overall, ozonation was an effective method for removing nondegradable dyes. However, it is necessary to study the optimization of dye degradation under various environmental conditions for ozonation.

A group of 16 $Zn+Pb{\pm}Ag$ deposits distributed in the Pyeongchang-Jucheon area, Kangwon-do, South Korea, were semi-regionally investigated. These deposits are contact metasomatic and/or hydrothermal replacement types hosted in the carbonate-dominated Cambrian Machari Formation and Ordovician Ibtanri Formation, and also in the carbonate interbeds of the Precambrian argillic metasediments. Comparing some key aspects of the individual deposits, it is found that the ore deposits hosted in the Machari and Ibtanri Formations are mostly of steeply-dipping chimneys with or without skarn minerals and are rich in Ag and Pb>Zn in metal grade whereas those occuring in the carbonate interbeds of the Precambrian argillic metasediments are gently-dipping conformable lenticular orebodies mostly with skarn minerals and are generally poor in Ag and Zn>Pb. The skarn mineralization in the area appears to have occurred during the lower Cretaceous (118.7Ma) to mid-Cretaceous (107.8Ma) time assumed from the K-Ar dates of the Dowon and Pyeongchang granites which are closely associated with the skarn ore deposits. The Rb/Ba/Sr ratios of these granites indicate that they are of strongly differentiated anomalous granites, and the Nb vs. Y and Rb vs. Y+Nb plots fall on the field of volcanic arc setting. The contact aureoles are zoned, giving the sequence in order of increasing distance from igneous contact: garnet-wollastonite, granet-wollastonite-clinopyroxene and garnet-clinopyroxene in such as the Pyeongchang and Yeonwol 114 areas. Electron microprobe analyses reveal that garnets and clinopyroxenes are generally low in Fe and Mn. Garnets are grossular to intermediate grandite except for those from the Ogryong exoskarn which are richer in andradite, pyrope and spessartine fractions. This indicates that the oxidation state of skarn-forming environment at Ogryong was higher than at the other deposits. Clinopyroxenes are mostly salitic except for those from the Ogryong exoskarn which involve considerable amounts of hedenbergite and johansenite fractions. The ${\delta}^{18}O$ value of Jurassic biotite granite at Ogryong is higher (+10.21‰) than that of Cretaceous one at Chodun (+8.41‰). The ${\delta}^{13}C$ values of carbonate rocks range from -0.89‰ to 0.68‰ and the ${\delta}^{18}O$ values range from +11.91‰ to + 19.34‰ indicating that these carbonate rocks are of marine origin. However, the ${\delta}^{13}C$ values of skarn calcite and vein calcite are -4.80‰ and -12.92‰, and the ${\delta}^{18}O$ values are +5.56‰ and +10.32‰, respectively, indicating that these calcites are of hydrothermal origin. The ${\delta}^{34}S$ values of sulfide minerals range from +4.4‰ to +8.7‰ suggesting that the sulfurs are of magmatic origin.

항균 활성도를 조사하기 위해 이산화티탄미립자 표면에 나노메탈(Au, Ag)을 균일하게 도핑한 나노복합체($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2,\;Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)를 초음파환원법과 졸-겔 법으로 제조하였다. 이렇게 제조된 나노메탈-이산화티탄 복합체의 항균 활성도는 고체배지 표면에 나노복합체와 함께 E. coli를 도말하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 후 생존된 콜로니 개수의 측정을 통해서 이루어졌다. 나노복합체의 초기 항균 효율은 나노메탈이 도핑된 이산화티탄미립자($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2,\;Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)) 복합체가 도핑하지 않은 이산화티탄미립자($TiO_2$)에 비해 높은 항균 효율을 나타내주었다. 이후, 나노복합체를 $4^{\circ}C$에서 보관 후 장기보관에 따른 항균특성을 비교해본 결과, 나노메탈만 도핑된 복합체($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2$)보다는 $Ag-TiO_2,$의 표면을 다시 산화티탄막으로 코팅한 복합체($Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)의 항균특성이 오랫동안 유지되는 것을 알수 있었다. 이는 산화티탄막으로 다시 코팅한 $Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$의 경우에 Ag 나노메탈의 산화방지 및 나노복합체의 콜로이드 안정성 향상이 이루어졌기 때문으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 Np의 환원제로 $H_2O_2$가 함유된 1M 이하의 저산도 질산용액으로부터 DEHPA(di-(2-ethyhexyl)phosphoric acid) 추출제에 의한 Np의 추출 및 역추출 조건 설정과 추출속도 향상에 주안점을 두어, 회분식으로 실험을 수행하였다. 저산도 질산용액에서 Np의 산화상태는 주로 Np(V)로 존재하고 있음을 확인하였으며, Np의 추출율은 $H_2O_2$ 농도 및 DEHPA의 농도 증가에 따라 증가하고, 질산농도 증가에 따라 급격히 감소하였다. 제3의 산화/환원제가 첨가되지 않는 경우 추출율은 약 70% 정도로 다소 낮지만, DEHPA에 의해 추출이 가능함을 보았다. 또한 추출속도는 $H_2O_2$ 농도의 0.516 승에 비례하며, 질산농도의 0.483 승에 반비례하고 있는 다음과 같은 식을 얻었다. $d[Np(V)]/dt=-1.391{\times}10^{-2}[H_2O_2]^{0.516}[HNO_3]^{-0.483}[Np(V)]$ 그리고 과산화수소의 첨가 유무에 관계없이, 유기상으로 추출된 Np은 옥살산(oxalic acid)에 의해 효과적으로 역추출되었으며, 0.5M 옥살산으로 약 92% 이상을 역추출하였다.

본 연구에서는 phenol이 암 예방에 어떻게 영향을 미치는가를 규명하고자 시도하였으며 phenol이 TBARS에 미치는 영향, TBRAS와 암과의 상관관계 규명에 촛점을 맞추었다. 식이 phenol이 조직산화와 종양 발생(tumor onset)에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위하여 영양적으로 우수한 amino acid-based diet와 transgenic mouse model을 이용한 protocol을 사용하였다. Mice는 human lymphotropic virus(type-1) transactivator(texl) gene을 carry하며 동시에 종양이 외불 나타난다. 25마리의 transgenic mice를 대조군, 2, 4, 8 mmol catechin/kg diet 군 및 wine soled 군으로 구분하였으며, 대조군은 catechin과 wine solid를 전혀 주지 않았으며, wine solid 군은 redwine 750 ml/kg을 주었다. Mice는 매일 관찰하여 맨 처음 종양이 발현하는 날짜를 기록하였다. Catechin과 wine solid를 섭취한 mice에서 종양이 발현하는 시기가 대조군보다 유의적으로 낮았으며 더욱이 4 mmol catechin diet 군과 8 mmol catechin diet 군에서는 실험기간동안 각각 1마리에서 종양이 발견되지 않았다. Catechin과 wine solid를 섭취한 mice의 뇌조직과 비장의 TBARS 수준은 대조군 mice의 동일한 조직과 비교하였을 때 유의적으로 낮았다. 또한 조직의 TBARS 수준은 종양 발생과 유의적으로 상관관계가 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 phenol의 종류에 상관없이 식이 phenol에 조직의 항산화(산화억제)를 통해 암 예방(cancer prevention)에 영향을 미친다는 것을 제시해준다.
