A pH-ISEFET microprobe for in vivo measurements has been fabricated by combining ISFET (SL-IIS) chip and capillary thin film reference electrode. A two-step TCE oxidation for the gate oxide layer and multilayer encapsulation using silicone rubber and epoxy were specially used for the improvement of the stability and temperature dependence of the ISFET's. The measured sensitivit, response time and temperature dependence of the pH-ISFET microprobes are 50 mV/pH, less than one second, and - 0.01 pH/$^{\circ}$ , respectively. By operating continuously more than 40 days, a long term stability of 0.016 pH/day is obtained. The result of pH monitoring of femoral arterial blood in a rabbit is fairly good agreement with the value of blood gas analysis.

Single Josephson junctions, which are of cross type, of $50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ {\times} 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$$ were fabricated under several oxidation conditions to Investigate controllabilities of critical current density (Jc) with the standard KRISS processes. Considering that the self-field effect suppresses the observed critical current (Ice) at high Jc region, we could reasonably estimate Jc values from I-V observations. The dependence of the obtained Jc as a function of exposure, which is equal to pressure (P) times time (t), was well fitted to a curve of Jc ~ (Pt)-0.34. The maximum Jc value at the controllability margin was found to be 3 kA/cm$^2$with the current equipment set up.

The progress of oxidation of a porous silicon layer(PSL) was studied by examining the temperature dependence of the oxidation and the infrared absorption spectra. Thick OPSL(oxidized porous silicon layer). which has the same properties as thermal $SiO_{2}$ of bulk silicon, is formed in a short time by two steps wet oxidation of PSL at $700^{\circ}C$, 1 hr and $1100^{\circ}C$, 1 hr. Etching rate, breakdown strength of the OPSL are strongly dependent on the oxidation temperature, oxidation atmosphere. And its breakdown field was ${1\MV/cm^-2}$ MV/cm The oxide film stress was determined through curvature measurement using a dial gauge. During oxidation at temperature above $1000^{\circ}C$ in dry $O_{2}$, stress on the order of ${10^9}\dyne/{cm^2}{-10^10}\dyne/{cm^2}$ are generated in the OPSL.

Spontaneous combustion propensity of various coals of carbonization grade as a pulverized fuel of coal-fired power plant has been tested from an initial temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ to $600^{\circ}C$ by heating in an oven with air to analyze the self-oxidation starting temperature. These tests produce CPT (Cross Point Temperature), IT (Ignition temperature), and CPS (Cross Point Slope) calculated as the slope of time taken for a rapid exothermic oxidation reaction at CPT base. CPS shows a carbonization rank dependence whereby wood pellet has the highest propensity to spontaneous combustion of $20.995^{\circ}C/min$. A sub-bituminous KIDECO coal shows a CPS value of $15.370^{\circ}C/min$, whereas pet coke has the highest carbonization rank at $2.950^{\circ}C/min$. The nature of this trend is most likely attributable to a concentration of volatile matter and oxygen functional groups of coal surface that governs the available component for oxidation, as well as surface area of fuel char, and constant pressure molar heat.

The ignition of monomethylamine was studied in reflected shock waves over the temperature range of 1255- 1579 K and the pressure range of 1.04-1.51 bar. The ignition delay time was measured by the sudden increase of pressure profile and the radiation emitted by OH radicals. The relationship between the ignition delay time and the concentrations of monomethylamine and oxygen was determined in the form of mass-action expressions with an Arrhenius temperature dependence. In contrast to the behavior observed in hydrocarbons, monomethylamine acts to accelerate rather than inhibit its own ignition. And numerical modeling of the ignition of $CH_3NH_2$ has also been carried out to test the several kinetic mechanisms.

Beef qualities which can be properly predicted by time-temperature integrator (TTI), a chromatic indicator, were selected in terms of its similarity of temperature dependence between beef qualities and TTI, denoted by Arrhenius activation energy ($E_a$). The high similarity is required to afford accurate prediction. A devised enzymatic TTI based on laccase (an oxidase), which catalyses the oxidation on 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) producing color development, was applied. The factors of beef quality, such as volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), pH, color (CIE $L^*$, $a^*$), Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF), Pseudomonas spp. count, and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) count were considered for the selection. $E_a$ (55.48 kJ/mol) of the TTI was found to be similar to those of the beef qualities (all referred) in the order of LAB count (53.54 kJ/mol), CIE $a^*$ value (61.86 kJ/mol), pH (65.51 kJ/mol), Pseudomonas spp. Count (44.54 kJ/mol), VBN (67.98 kJ/mol), WBSF (40.67 kJ/mol), and CIE $L^*$ value (33.72 kJ/mol). The beef qualities with more similar $E_a$ to that of the TTI showed less difference between real and TTI predicted levels. In conclusion, it was found out that when applying TTI to food packages, their $E_a$ similarity should be checked to assure accurate estimation of food quality levels from TTI response.

Single Josephson junctions of 50 $\mu$m $\times$ 50 $\mu$m were fabricated for several oxidation conditions to investigate controllabilities of critical current density ($J_{c}$) with the standard KRISS processes. Considering the self-field effect suppressing the observed critical current ($I_{c}$) at high $J_{c}$ region, we could reasonably estimate $J_{c}$ values from I-V observations. The dependence of the estimated $J_{c}$ as a function of exposure, which is equal to pressure(P) times time(t), was well fitted to a curve of $J_{c}$ ~ $(Pt)^{-0.36}$. The maximum $J_{c}$ value at the controllability margin was found to be 4 kA/$cm^{2}$ with the current equipment set up.

Viologen derivative has been widely investigated because of their well-electrochemical behavior including the electron acceptor for the electric charge delivery mediation of the devices. The viologen exist in three main oxidation states, namely, $V^{2+}{\rightleftarrows}V^{{\cdot}+}{\rightleftarrows}V^0$. These redox reactions are highly reversible and can be cycled many times without significant side reaction. In this paper, we determined the time dependence to resonant frequency shift of QCM during self-assembly process and the electrochemical behavior of the self-assembled viologen monolayers by electrochemical QCM method. The redox reactions of viologen were highly reversible and the EQCM has been employed to monitor the electrochemically induced adsorption of SAMs during the redox reactions.

The ignition of ethanol-oxygen-argon mixture was studied in reflected shock waves over the temperature range of 1281-1625 K and the pressure range of 0.69-1.06 bar. The ignition delay time was measured by the sudden increase of pressure profile and the radiation emitted by OH radicals. The relationship between the ignition delay time and the concentrations of ethanol and oxygen was determined in the form of mass-action expressions with an Arrhenius temperature dependence. In contrast to the behavior observed in methanol, ethanol acts to inhibit rather than accelerate its own ignition. Several kinetic mechanisms proposed for ethanol oxidation at high temperatures have been tested by the computer simulation.

Conductive honeycomb-patterned polystyrene (PS) thin films were prepared by the formation of a polyaniline (PANI) thin layer on the surface of the patterned PS thin films using simple one-step chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline. The in situ chemical oxidation polymerization of aniline hydrochloride solution on the patterned structure of the PS films was conducted in the presence of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) to prepare the PANI-MWCNT/PS composite film. The concentration (wt %) of MWCNT was varied in the range of 1%-3% by weight. The dependence of surface morphology of the PANI/PS and PANI-MWCNT/PS composite film to the polymerization time was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The room temperature DC conductivity was obtained by the four-probe technique. The conductivity of the PANI-MWCNT/PS composite film was affected both by the MWCNT concentration and polymerization time. In addition, DC electrical field was loaded during the oxidative polymerization to affect the distribution of the MWCNT included in the composite film, varying the loading voltage in the range of 0.1-3.0 V. The conductivity of the PANI-MWCNT/PS composite film was increased as loading voltage rose. However, this increase stops at a voltage higher than the critical value.
