비휘발성 저항 메모리소자인 resistance random access memory (ReRAM)는 간단한 소자구조와 빠른 동작특성을 나타내며 고집적화에 유리하기 때문에 차세대 메모리소자로써 각광받고 있다. 현재, 이성분계 산화물, 페로브스카이트 산화물, 고체 전해질 물질, 유기재료 등을 응용한 저항 메모리소자에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중 ZnO를 기반으로 하는 amorphous InGaZnO (a-IGZO) 박막은 active layer 로써 박막트랜지스터 적용 시 우수한 전기적 특성을 나타내며, 빠른 동작특성과 높은 저항 변화율을 보이기 때문에 ReRAM 에 응용 가능한 재료로써 기대되고 있다. 또한 가시광선 영역에서 광학적으로 투명한 특성을 보이기 때문에 투명소자로서도 응용이 기대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 indium tin oxide (ITO) 투명 전극을 적용한 ITO/a-IGZO/ITO 구조의 투명 소자를 제작하여 저항 메모리 특성을 평가하였다. Radio frequency (RF) sputter를 이용하여 IGZO 박막을 합성하고, ITO 전극을 증착하여 투명 저항 메모리소자를 구현하였고, resistive switching 효과를 관찰하였다. 또한, 열처리를 통해 a-IGZO 박막 내의 Oxygen vacancy와 같은 결함의 정도에 따른 on/off 저항의 변화를 관찰할 수 있었다. 제작된 저항 메모리소자는 unipolar resistive switching 특성을 보였으며, 높은 on/off 저항의 차이를 유지하였다. Scanning electron microscope (SEM)을 통해 합성된 박막의 형태를 평가하였고, X-ray diffraction (XRD) 및 transmission electron microscopy (TEM)을 통해 결정성을 평가하였다. 제작된 소자의 전기적 특성은 HP-4145 를 이용하여 측정하고 비교 분석하였다.

AlInN has been studied extensively over the past few years due to its interesting material properties that are not present in other ternary nitrides. However, basic material study of AlInN has not been reported as much compared to device applications due to the difficulty in the growth. We have performed the material studies from various aspects. A secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) has shown high oxygen content above $1{\times}10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$ with its insensitivity to the growth conditions. While the free carrier concentration observed by the capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements was about $3{\times}10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$, the activation energy measured by temperature dependent C-V was only about 4 meV. Si doped AlInN (Si level ${\sim}2{\times}10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$) showed almost no carrier freeze-out at carrier density of $1{\times}10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$. More studies were carried out with a transmission electron microscopy, time-resolved photoluminescence and other analytical techniques to understand the results from SIMS and C-V studies. In this report, we will discuss the possible correlations between the abnormal characteristics in AlInN.

In the present study, the effect of chemical treatment on graphite nanofibers (GNFs) supports with various concentrated nitric acids was investigated for methanol oxidation. To optimize the electrocatalytic activity, PtRu catalysts were deposited on GNF supports by impregnation method. The surface and structural properties of the GNF supports were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), element analyzer (EA), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of the catalysts was observed by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The electrocatalytic activity of PtRu/GNF catalysts was investigated by cyclic voltammetry measurement. As a result, the oxygen functional groups were introduced on the GNF supports and were gradually increased with increasing of concentrated nitric acid, causing the smaller particle size and higher loading level. And the electrocatalytic activity of the catalysts for methanol oxidation was gradually improved. Consequently, it was found that chemical treatments could influence on surface properties of the carbon supports, resulting in enhancing the electrocatalytic activity of the catalysts for DMFCs.

This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of the internal flowfield in a valveless airbreathing pulse detonation engine (PDE) currently under experimental development at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School. The system involves no valves in the airflow path, and the isolation between the inlet and combustor is achieved through the gasdynamics in an isolator. The analysis accommodates the full conservation equations in axisymmetric coordinates, and takes into account variable properties for ethylene/oxygen/air system. Chemical reaction schemes with a single progress variable are implemented to minimize the computational burden. Detailed flow evolution during a full cycle is explored and propulsive performance is calculated. Effect of initiator mass injection rate is examined and results indicate that the mass injection rate should be carefully selected to avoid the formation of recirculation zones in the initial cold flowfield. Flow evolution results demonstrate a successful detonation transmission from the initiator to the combustor. However, strong pressure disturbance may propagate upstream to the inlet nozzle, suggesting the current configuration could be further refined to provide more efficient isolation between the inlet and combustor.

Rubia cordifolia Linn, which belongs to the Rubiaceae family, is a well-known herb used in Ayurvedic medicine. In the present study, we investigated the influence of a methanolic extract (RC) on the induction of apoptosis in HEp-2 (human laryngeal carcinoma) cell line, as evidenced by cytotoxicity, morphological changes and modification in the levels of pro-oxidants. Inhibition of cell proliferation and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release increased in a time and dose-dependent manner. Further, reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione transferase (GST) and protein levels decreased and lipid peroxidation increased significantly on RC treatment in a dose dependent manner when compared to controls. Based on the results we determined the optimal dose as 30mg/ ml and the apoptotic effect of RC extract (30 mg/ml) on HEp-2 cells was confirmed by fluorescent microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) based on morphological and ultrastructural changes. RC extract suppressed the proliferation of HEp-2 oral cancer cells inducing apoptotic cell death in vitro. These results point to potential of RC extract as an agent for the treatment of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

In the present paper we studied experimentally fundamental optimization of oxygen enriched pyrolysis melting incinerator, Characteristics of this system was confirmed dealing with the gas flow and combustion properties for the inside secondary air injection. The experiment setup has a disposal rate of 30kg/hr which was measured by the inside temperature and gas. Along with above experiments, the three-dimensional computation was employed to analyse the combustion fluid dynamics and gas residence time. Equations for turbulence and heat - transmission as well as chemical reactions were solved by using common codes. The experimental combustion chamber was composed of staged combustion types structure for reducing NOx. Finally, it was verified that the control of the secondary air and air ratio of thermo stack were important. In the computational analysis, it showed reasonable agreement with the experimental results regarding the temperature and discharged gas concentration.

Membrane fouling is a major challenge limiting the use of membrane applications. In this study high induced shear rates were utilized at the membrane surface in order to reduce the organic and inorganic scaling by using the torsional vibration of flat sheet membranes. The performances of a vibratory shear-enhanced processing (VSEP) system for the ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration of industrial dairy wastewater were investigated. The vibration and non-vibration methods were compared with the same membrane and operational parameters during the purification of real dairy industrial process wastewater. In the initial experiments, short-term tests were carried out in which the effects of vibration amplitude, recirculation flow rate and transmembrane pressure were measured and compared. The permeate flux, turbidity, conductivity and chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction of dairy wastewater were investigated by using UF, NF and RO membranes with vibration and non-vibration methods. In the subsequent experiments, concentration tests were also carried out. Finally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the vibration method gave a better performance, which can be attributed to the higher membrane shear rate, which reduces the concentration of solids at the membrane, and the transmission.

Activated carbon (AC) was modified by ammonium persulphate or nitric acid, respectively. AC and the modified materials were used as catalyst supports. The oxygen groups were introduced in the supports during the modifications. All the supports were characterized by $N_2$-physisorption, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric analysis. Methanol synthesis catalysts were prepared through wet impregnation of copper nitrate and zinc nitrate on the supports followed by thermal decomposition. These catalysts were measured by the means of $N_2$-physisorption, X-ray diffraction, XPS, temperature programmed reduction and TEM tests. The catalytic performances of the prepared catalysts were compared with a commercial catalyst (CZA) in this work. The results showed that the methanol production rate of AC-CZ ($23mmol-CH_3OH/(g-Cu{\cdot}h)$) was higher, on Cu loading basis, than that of CZA ($9mmol-CH_3OH/(g-Cu{\cdot}h)$). We also found that the modification methods produced strong metal-support interactions leading to poor catalytic performance. AC without any modification can prompt the catalytic performance of the resulted catalyst.

Fuel cells convert a fuel together with oxygen in a highly efficient electrochemical reaction to electricity and water. Since the electrochemical reaction in the fuel cell stack dose not generate any noise, Fuel cell systems are expected to operated much quieter than combustion engines. However, the tonal noise and the broad band noise caused by a centrifugal compressor and an electric motor cause which is required to feed the ambient air to the cathode of the fuel cell stack with high pressure. In this study, the multi-camber perforated muffler is used to reduce noise. We propose optimized muffler model using an axiomatic design method that optimizes the parameters of perforated muffler while keeping the volume of muffler minimized.
