  • Piezoelectric actuators have been investigated for flow control in the field of fluid dynamics. Numerical simulation for a single diaphragm piezoelectric actuator operating in quiescent air is performed to investigate the complex flow field around the slot exit. A periodic velocity transpiration condition is applied to simulate the effect of the moving diaphragm. The computational results for the flow field around the slot exit agree well with the experimental data. The results also show that low pressure regions due to the vortex pairing cause non-monotonic variations in the vertical velocity.

  • Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has long been projected as a powerful analytical technique for chemical and biological sensing applications. Pairing with portable Raman spectrometers makes the technique extremely appealing as real-time sensors for field application. However, the lack of reliable, uniform, low cost and ease-of-use SERS enhancement structures has prevented the wide adoption of this technique for general applications. We have discovered a novel hybrid structure based on the high-density and uniform arrays of gold nanofingers over a large surface area for SERS applications. The nanofingers are flexible and their tips can be brought together to trap molecules to mimic the biological system. We report here a rapid, simple, low-cost, and sensitive method of detecting trace level of food contaminants by using nanofinger chips based on portable SERS technique. We also present here the characterization of surface reaction of target molecules with our gold nanofinger substrates and the effect of nanofinger closing towards SERS performance. This new type of nano-structures can potentially revolutionize the medical and biologic research by providing a novel way to capture, localize, manipulate, and interrogate biological molecules with unprecedented capabilities.

  • In the fuzzy control for the multi-variable system, it is difficult to obtain the fuzzy rule. Therefore, the parallel structure of the independent single input-single output fuzzy controller using a pairing between the input and output variable is applied to the multi-variable system. The concept of relative gain matrix is used to obtain the input-output pairs. However, among the input/output variables which are not paired the interactive effects should be taken into account. these mutual coupling of variables affect the control performance. Therefore, for the control system with a strong coupling property, the control performance is sometimes lowered. In this paper, the effect of mutual coupling of variables is considered by tile introduction of a simple compensator. This compensator adjusts the degree of coupling between variables using a neural network. In this proposed neuro-fuzzy controller, the Neural network which is realized by back-propagation algorithm, adjusts the mutual coupling weight between variables.

  • The analogy between spin configurations in spin ice materials like $Ho_2Ti_2O_7$ and proton configurations in water ice, $H_2O$, has been appreciated for many years (see Bramwell and Gingras, Science, 294, 1495, 2001). However it is only in the last few years that this equivalence has been extended into the realm of electrodynamics. In this talk I shall describe our recent experimental work that identifies magnetic charges ("monopoles"), transient magnetic currents ("magnetricity") and the universal properties expected of an ideal magnetic Coulomb gas (magnetic electrolyte - "magnetolyte"). These universal properties include the Onsager-Wien effect, "corresponding states" behaviour, Debye-Huckel screening and Bjerrum pairing. I will describe experimental results for both traditional spin ice materials ($Ho_2Ti_2O_7$, $Dy_2Ti_2O_7$) and a recently discovered system ($Dy_2Ge_2O_7$).

  • The influences of $LiNO_3\;and\;AgNO_3$ on the N-C(O) rotational barrier of N,N-dimethylacetamide and N,N-dimethylpropionamide have been investigated. The rotational activation free energy $({\Delta}G^{\neq})\;for\;Li^{+}$-amide complexes is found to increase with increasing salt concentration. On the other hand, that for $Ag^+$-amide complexes increases in the presence of $Ag^+$ ion up to 0.25 M ion concentration and then decreases as the concentration of $Ag^+$ ion is further increased. Such an unusual behavior of $Ag^+$-amide complexes has been interpreted in terms of ion-pairing and diluent effect on the amides. However, $^{13}C$ nmr chemical shift data for the amides have shown that both of these ions interact primarily with the carbonyl group in amides.

  • Cranial nerve palsies can be presenting signs of intracranial aneurysms. There is a classic pairing between an aneurysmal vessel and adjacent nerves leading to cranial neuropathy. Isolated abducens nerve palsy can be a localizing sign of an unruptured vertebrobasilar circulation aneurysm. Aneurysms involving Anterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery (AICA) and Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery (PICA) have been reported to be associated with abducens nerve palsy. The symptoms in unruptured aneurysms are due to the mass effect on adjacent neurovascular structures. Most of the abducens nerve palsy resolves following microsurgical clipping. Here, we present a rare case of an unruptured Posterior Cerebral Artery (PCA) aneurysm presenting with abducens nerve palsy and diplopia associated with contralateral hemianopsia which markedly improved following endovascular coil embolization.

  • The effect of the configuration of the nozzle and the impinging surface on the characteristics of the hole-tones has been experimentally investigated. It is found that the plate-tone is a special case of hole-tones, where the hole diameter is zero. The jet velocity range for hole-tones is divided into the low velocity region associated with laminar jet and the high velocity region with turbulent jet. The frequency of the tone is that for the shear layer instability at the nozzle exit or that attainable by a cascade of vortex pairing process with increase of the impinging distance. When the distance is longer than one diameter the frequency decreases to the terminal value near the preferred frequency of the column mode instability, in the range 0.23< $St_d$<0.53, where $St_d$ is the Strouhal number defined by $fd/U_J$, f the frequency, d the nozzle diameter, and $U_J$ the exit velocity. While the convection speed of the downstream vortex, in the present study, is almost constant at low-speed laminar jet, it increases with distance at high-speed turbulent jet. As the frequency increases, the convection speed decreases in the low frequency range corresponding to the preferred mode, in agreement with the existing experimental data for a free jet.

  • This study was carried out to research microorganisms having the antifungal activity against ginseng Alternaria blight pathogen Alternaria panax and ginseng anthracnose pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. Eleven Bacillus strains. were isolated from Korean traditional soybean paste and Kimchi. Among the 11 isolates, DJ5, KC1, KC2 and KC4 showing antagonistic activity on the mycelial growth of A. panax and C. gloeosporioides in pairing culture were finally selected as the antagonistic microorganisms. Based on 16s rRNA sequence and phylogenetic tree analysis, they were identified as Bacillus spp.. The selected microorganisms were investigated antagonistic activity by measured leaf-segment colonization in pot test. When Bacillus sp. were injected after A. panax treatment, KC1, KC2 and KC4 showed similar effect to chemical pesticides treated control. To measure preventive effect of Bacillus sp, antagonistic microorganisms were injected and C. gloeosporioides was treated in pot. When measuring the effectiveness for the prevention of Anthracnose, All Bacillus spp. showed approximately 83~90 % degree of superior preventive effect. In general, The four Bacillus spp. isolated from Korean traditional fermented foods showed therapeutic effect of Alternaria blight and preventive effect of Anthracnose.

  • Field effect transistors (FETs)를 기반으로 한 바이오센서는 빠른 응답속도, 저비용, label-free 등을 이유로 각광받고 있다. 그러나 3D 구조를 기반으로 한 FETs 바이오센서의 낮은 sensitivity의 한계점을 지니며, 이를 극복하기 위해 1D 구조의 나노튜브 등을 활용하였으나 여전히 높은 sensitivity의 확보는 힘들다. 최근에는 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 이차원 반도체 물질 중 하나인 Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)를 이용하여, 700 이상의 sensitivity를 지니는 pH센서 및 100 이상의 sensitivity를 지니는 바이오센서가 보고되었다. 하지만 이보다 더 높은 정확성 및 반응성을 높이기 위한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 우리는 DNA 템플릿을 이용하여, TMD FET 기반 pH 및 바이오센서의 반응성을 극대화시키는 연구를 선보인다. DNA는 7~8정도의 유전상수 (K)를 가지는 물질로 기존 $SiO_2$(K=3.9)보다 높은 유전상수를 가지며 두께를 0.7 nm로 매우 얇게 형성할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이는 FET 기반 바이오센서의 표면 캐패시턴스를 높여 sensitivity를 극대화할 수 있으며, 기존에 사용된 high-k 기반 바이오센서와 비교하여도 약 10배 이상의 sensitivity 향상을 노릴 수 있다. 또한, TMD 물질로 우리는 $WSe_2$를 선택하였으며, pH 용액의 receptor로써 우리는 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)를 활용하였고, 템플릿으로 사용된 DNA는 DX tile 및 Ring type의 두 가지를 사용하였다. 추가로, DNA의 phosphate backbone을 중성화시키고 DNA의 base pairing의 charge 안정화를 위해 구리 이온($Cu^{2+}$) 및 란타넘족($Tb^{3+}$)을 추가하였다. 완성된 바이오센서의 pH 센싱을 위해 우리는 pH 6,7,8의 표준 용액을 사용하였으며, 재현성 및 반복성의 확인하였다.
