The standard samples for the calibration of PIXE analysis were prepared using the single element standard samples and sulfur and chlorine compounds. The diluted standard solutions were dropped on the non-hole nuclepore film and dried. Standard sample of six elements of Ca, Cr, Co, Cu, Se and Sr had close agreement between the measurement and theoretical values. According to the theoretical study about the effects of thick samples on the accuracy of the PIXE analysis, the reduction of X-ray yields in the thick sample can not be neglected for the sample thicker than $100{\mu}g/cm^2$.

This study was conducted to determine effects of spent composts of Se-enriched mushrooms (Se-SMC) as the dietary selenium source on carcass characteristics, plasma glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) activity and Se deposition in finishing Hanwoo steers. In combination with both Se-SMC and normal SMC, experimental treatment diets were formulated to contain 0.1, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 ppm of Se on a dry matter basis. A total of 20 finishing Hanwoo steers (average BW = 613 kg, average age = 20 to 24 mo) were allotted to treatments in four groups of five steers per pen for 12 wk preceding slaughter. While the experiment is employed, blood samples were taken to analyze Se concentration and GSH-Px activity, and muscle and liver samples were collected for analyses of Se contents in their tissues after slaughter. DMl and BW gain were not affected by dietary Se level and any toxic symptoms in treatments with a higher level of Se were not observed. No differences were noted for carcass characteristics. Se concentration in whole blood and plasma GSH-Px activity were linearly increased with the increasing level of dietary Se (P < 0.01). Se content in the hind leg for Se-SMC supplemented groups significantly increased (P < 0.05) upon dietary Se level, with 0.27, 0.37, 0.40 and 0.46 !1g1g dry, respectively. However, Se content in the loin was not affected by dietary Se levels. Se content in the liver was significantly increased(P < 0.05) as dietary Se increased, with 0.79, 1.40, 2.39 and 3.10 !1g1g dry, respectively. These results suggested that Se in the Se-SMC was highly bioavailable, and Se-SMC might be used not only as an inexpensive way of providing Se for ruminants but also as another way of producing Se-fortified beef.

Recent research on mobile Internet protocol television and digital right management (DRM) interconnections has focused on multimedia technologies designed to enhance content scalability and adaptive content distribution. However, due to the architectural and scalable limitations, recent systems are not flexible and securable with respect to their adaptive content distribution and protective policy management. Therefore, we propose a content protective multi-agent platform that provides secure multimedia services, correlation management, pattern-based management, and multi-source multi-use (MsMu)-based services. Our architecture, supported by DRM, lets us create a rich set of MsMu-based content protection and seamless multimedia services through the extension of one source multi-use (OsMu)-based content services. We have verified our platform, which provides scalable and securable services with a 17% lower service response time by using a testbed.

In this study, the optimal strengthening by micro genetic algorithm(${\mu}$-GA) method is proposed for improvement of load-carrying capacity of RC hollow slab bridges using external prestressing. The Qeen-post type and King-post type are considered for the optimal strengthening. The type for optimal strengthening, deviator, areas of tendons and the number of anchor are calculated by ${\mu}$-GA. The objective function is constituted with dimensionless cost of tendon and steel for optimal strengthening. The constraints are formulated by design specification for bridges and anchors. The validity of this study is presented by analysis of the results after the optimal strengthening of the RC hollow slab bridge.

In east Asia, the leaves of various Sasa species have been used in folk medicine for centuries. The effects of the methanolic extract and its subsequent fractions derived from the leaves of Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai on cell proliferation in human leukemia HL-60 cells were evaluated. The ethyl acetate fraction of this extract (ESQL) significantly reduced cell viability in a dose-dependent manner ($0-250\;{\mu}g/mL$). ESQL ($IC_{50}=24.8\;{\mu}g/mL$) exhibited growth inhibition comparable to the main constituent of green tea, epigallocatechin ($IC_{50}=26.2\;{\mu}g/mL$), which was used as a positive control. ESQL treatment induced apoptosis, which was confirmed by the presence of nuclear condensation and annexin V-staining. These results demonstrate that ESQL contains chemopreventive phytochemicals that may be useful in neutraceutical applications.

고속 동도금 공정을 확립하기 위하여 선행실험으로 알카리계 동도금 용액을 이용하여 고속 동도금의 가능성을 실험하였다. 전류밀도와 극간거리, 유속의 조절을 통하여 최대 $17.6{\mu}m/min$. 속도의 도금속도를 확보하였으며, Hv 120 내외의 경도를 확보하였다. 고속 동도금을 실현하기 위해서는 높은 전류밀도를 필요로 하고, 낮은 용액 저항을 위해 극간거리는 짧게 유지하되, 빠른 유속을 필요로 하였다.

박막태양전지의 일종인 CIGS 태양전지는 직접천이형 반도체로 광흡수계수가 $1{\times}10^5cm^{-1}$로 매우 높고, 전기광학적 안정성이 우수하여 실리콘 결정질 태양전지를 대체할 고효율 태양전지로 각광받고 있다. CIGS 태양전지는 광흡수층 공정방법에 따라 다양한 결정구조 및 효율 차이가 나타난다. 본 실험에서는 Sputtering방법으로 금속전구체를 증착하고, Sequential process를 이용하여 고온에서 셀렌화 열처리를 수행하였다. Soda-lime glass 기판에 배면전극으로 Mo를 증착하고, 1단계로 CuIn0.7Ga0.3 조성비의 타겟을 이용하여 Sputtering법으로 $1.0{\sim}1.2{\mu}m$두께의 CIG 전구체를 증착하였다. 2단계로 CIG 전구체에 분자빔증착기를 이용하여 Se를 증착하고, 열처리를 통하여 CIGS 화합물 구조의 박막을 형성시켰다.증착된 CIGS 박막은 광전자분광분석기로 원소의 화학적 결합상태를 확인하고, in-situ 엑스선회절분석을 통해 Se층의 증착두께와 열처리 온도 변화에 따른 CIGS 층의 결정구조 및 결정화도 변화를 분석하였다.

Bimuth telluride type thermoelectrics are prepared by AC current applied got pressing method. It is possible to minimize the defects arising from the vaporization of Te, because of the very short processing time. The optimum conditions for the got pressing of 95mol% $Bi_2Te_3$-5mol%$Bi_2Se_3$ themoelectrics are sintered at $400^{\circ}C$, for 2min. with 1500 kgf/$cm^2$ from the particle size of 125 to 250 $\mu$m rang of powder. the resulted Z value (figure of merit) was 2.2$\times$10-3deg-1.

Soft-lithography 기술 중의 하나인 Micro-Contact Printing (${\mu}$-CP) 기술은 패턴이 형성된 mold 위에 고분자 물질을 코팅하고 기판과 접촉시켜, 패턴 된 부분만 기판으로 전사시켜 패턴을 형성하는 방법이다. ${\mu}$-CP 기술은 Imprint 방식과 비교하여 잔여물을 제거하기 위한 ashing 공정이 필요 없으며, 상대적으로 패턴이 전사되기 위한 공정 온도와 압력이 낮은 장점이 있다. 한편, 기존의 Photolithography 기술로 유기기판에 패턴을 형성하는 것은 제한이 있으며, 자외선에 의해 유기기판의 특성이 변화될 수 있다. 또한 패턴 형성 후 고분자 패턴을 제거하는 용매가 기판이 손상 받게 된다. 본 실험에서는 poly (1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl methacrylate) polymer (PFDMA) films을 패턴 된 poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) mold 위에 코팅하고 ${\mu}$-CP 기술을 통해 poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP)등과 같은 유기기판 위에 고분자 패턴 형성을 하였다. 이때 전사 가능한 온도는 상온이며, 압력은 코팅된 PFDMA films이 기판과 접촉될 수 있는 정도만 필요하다. PFDMA가 상온에서 전사 가능한 이유는 유리전이온도가 상온보다 낮기 때문이다. 또한 접촉각을 측정하여 접착력을 계산하면 PFDMA와 기판과의 접착력이 상대적으로 높기 때문이다. PFDMA는 플루오르계 용매에 제거되기 때문에 유기기판의 손상을 최소화 할 수 있다. ${\mu}$-CP 기술을 이용한 PFDMA의 패턴 형성 방법은 물질의 특성으로 flexible 및 organic device 제작에 응용 될 수 있다.

The fabrication and firing test of the ignition system for a micro solid propellant thruster are described in the present paper. Pt igniter coil was patterned on the glass membrane that was fabricated by the wet etching process. The thickness of Pt layer was $2000{\AA}$ and the width of igniter pattern was $40{\mu}m$. The thickness and diameter of glass membrane were $15{\mu}m$ and 1 mm, respectively. Ignition test was performed. Successful ignition of HTPB/AP propellant was obtained with an ignition delay of 1.6 s at an input voltage of 12 V. The ignition energy was estimated to be 1.4 J.
