  • In the structure of ITO/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N' bis (3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(TPD) /2,9-Dimethy 1-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP)/tris (8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum$(Alq_3)$/Al device, we studied the efficiency improvement of organic light-emitting diodes due to thickness variation of BCP materials used for a electron breaking layer. The thickness of TPD and $Alq_3$ was manufactured 40 nm, 60 nm, respectively under a base pressure of $5\times10^{-6}$Torr using a thermal evaporation. The TPD and $Alq_3$ layer were evaporated to be at a deposition rate of 2.0 A/s. The BCP was evaporated to be at a deposition of 1.0 A/s. When the thickness of BCP increased from 5 to 30 nm, we found that the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency is superior to the others when the thickness of BCP is 20 nm. Compared to the ones from the devices made without BCP, the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency was improved by 57 %, 70%, respectively.

  • This study describes the characterization of 80 kDa pretense showing gelationlytic property among three pretenses in the excretory/secretory proteins (ESP) from Toxoplasma gondii. The pretense activity was detected in the ESP but not in the somatic extract of RH tachyzoites. This pretense was active only in the presence of calcium ion but not other divalent cationic ions such as $Cu^{2+},{\;}Zn^{2+},{\;}Mg^{2+},{\;}and{\;}$Mn^{2+}$, implying that $Ca^{2+}$ is critical factor for the activation of the protease. The 80 kDa pretense was optimally active at pH 7.5. Its gelatinolytic activity was maximal at $37^{\circ}C$, and significant level of enzyme activity of the pretense remained after heat treatment at $56^{\circ}C$ for 30 min or $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, This thermostable enzyme was strongly inhibited by metal chelators, i.e., EDTA, EGTA, and 11 10-phenanthroline. Thus, the 80 kDa pretense in the ESP secreted by T. gondii was classified as a calcium dependent neutral metalloprotease.

  • We investigate the light-emitting performances of blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) with three different electron injection and transport materials, that is, bathocuproine(2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) (Bphen), 1,3,5-tri(m-pyrid-3-yl-phenyl)benzene (Tm3PyPB), and 2,6-bis(3-(carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)pyridine (26DCzPPy), which are partially doped with cesium metal. We find that the device characteristics are very dependent on the nature of the introduced electron injection layer (EIL) and electron transporting layer (ETL). When the appropriate EIL and ETL are combined, the peak external quantum efficiency and peak power efficiency improve up to 20.7% and 45.6 lm/W, respectively. Moreover, this blue PHOLED even maintains high external quantum efficiency of 19.6% and 16.9% at a luminance of $1,000cd/m^2$ and $10,000cd/m^2$, respectively.

  • Concentrations of the total, dissolved and particulate iron in waters of Lake Eui-Am have been determined spectrophotometrically on August 14, 1970. O-phenanthroline was the reagent used. Iron contents of the lake water were varied by the station and depth. Analyses showed variations in the total iron ranging from 238 to 2,643 ${\mu}$g/l (mean value 1,028${\mu}$g/l); the dissolved iron varied from 34.5 to 137.7 ${\mu}$g/l (mean value 83.0${\mu}$g/l), and the particulate iron varied from 179 to 2,544 ${\mu}$g/l (mean value 943 ${\mu}$g/l). Three forms of iron tend to increase with depth. This is believed that the suspended matter plays an important role in regulating of iron contents in summer season.

  • We have fabricated white organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using several thicknesses of electron-transport layer. The multi-emission layer structure doped with red and blue phosphorescent guest emitters was used for achieving white emission. 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP) was used as an electron-transport layer. The thickness of BCP layer was varied to be 20, 55, and 120 nm. The current efficiency, emission and recombination characteristics of multi-layer white OLEDs were investigated. The BCP layer thickness variation results in the shift of emission spectrum due to the recombination zone shift. As the BCP layer thickness increases, the recombination zone shifts toward the electron-transport layer/emission-layer interface. The white OLED with a 55 nm thick BCP layer exhibited a maximum current efficiency of 40.9 cd/A.

  • The Mo(V) $di-{\mu}-oxo$ type $[Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L]Cl_2$ complexes(L: 4,4'-Diphenyl-2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,4'-Dimethyl-2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,7-Diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) have been prepared by the reaction of $[Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_6]^{2+}$ with a series of chelate ligands. These complexes are completed by two terminal oxygens arranged trans to one another and each ligand forms a chelate types. In $Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L$ two $H_2O$ coordinated at trans site of terminal oxgens. The prepared complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, electronic spectra, $^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, and thermal analysis(TG-DTA). In the potential range -0.00V to -1.00V at scan rate of $50mVs^{-1}$, a cathodic peak at -0.83V ${\sim}$ -0.88V (vs SCE) and an anodic peak at -0.54V ${\sim}$ -0.88V (vs SCE) have been observed in aquous solution. The ratio of the cathodic to anodic current(Ipc/Ipa) is almost 2, we infer that redox is irreversible as dimer forms broken.

  • 백색 유기발광소자는 전색 디스플레이, 조명으로서의 잠재적인 특성으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자 기술로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 백색 유기발광소자는 주로 R-G-B 영역의 다양한 발광층을 적층하여 제작한다. 하지만 여러 발광층을 적층해야하기 때문에 제작할 때 공정 과정이 복잡해지고, 높은 생산단가를 가지게 된다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 형광체를 이용한 백색 유기발광소자의 연구가 진행되고 있지만, 아직 색순도와 색좌표에 대한 많은 연구가 미흡한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 무기물 형광체를 활용하여 백색 유기발광소자의 전기적 특성과 광학적 특성을 관찰하였고, 광원으로 사용된 청색 유기발광소자에 녹색과 적색의 무기물 형광체를 결합하는 방법으로 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 광원으로 사용한 청색 유기발광 소자는 투명전극으로 ITO를 사용하였고, 정공 수송층으로 N,N'-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine, 발광층으로 4,4-bis(2,2-diphenylethen-1-yl)biphenyl, 정공 저지 층과 전자 수송 층은 각각 bathocuproine 과 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline 을 사용 하였다. 전자 주입 층으로는 lithium quinolate를 사용하였으며 음극으로는 Al을 사용하였다. 색 변환 층으로 사용된 유기물 형광체는 sol-gel 방법으로 제작된 녹색 형광체 Y3Al5O12:Ce, 적색 형광체 Ca2AiO19:Mn 을 사용하였다. Sol-gel 방법으로 제작된 형광체는 X선 회절 분석기를 통해 JCPDS cards를 확인하였고, 형광체의 녹색과 적색의 혼합비율에 따른 색좌표를 확인하여 백색 유기발광소자를 제작 하였다.

  • The protease purified from Bacillus cereus JH108 has the function of leucine specific endopeptidase. When measured by hydrolysis of synthetic substrate (N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Leu-p-nitroanilide), the enzyme activity exhibited optimal activity at pH 9.0, $60^{\circ}C$. The endopeptidase activity was stimulated by $Ca^{++},\;Co^{++},\;Mn^{++},\;Mg^{++},\;and\;Ni^{++}$, and was inhibited by metal chelating agents such as EDTA, 1,10-phenanthroline, and EGTA. Addition of serine protease inhibitor, PMSF, resulted in the elimination of the activity. The endopeptidase activity was fully recovered from the inhibition of EDTA by the addition of 1 mM $Ca^{++}$, and was partially restored by $Co^{++}\;and\;Mn^{++}$, indicating that the enzyme was stabilized and activated by divalent cations and has a serine residue at the active site. Addition of $Ca^{++}$ increased the pH and heat stability of endopeptidase activity. These results show that endopeptidase requires calcium ions for activity and/or stability. A Lineweaver-Burk plot analysis indicated that the $K_m$ value of endopeptidase is 0.315 mM and $V_{max}$ is 0.222 ) is $0.222\;{\mu}mol$ of N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Leu-p-nitroanilide per min. Bestatin was shown to act as a competitive inhibitor to the endopeptidase activity.

  • We report very efficient white OLEDs consisting of a blue-emitting 4,4'bis[N-(1-napthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]-biphenyl (${\alpha}$-NPD), a hole-blocking layer of 2,9-dimethyl-4, 7-diphenyl-1, 10-phenanthroline (BCP) doped with red fluorescent dye of 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-[2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro- 1H, 5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8-yl) vinyl]-4H-pyran) (DCM2), and green-emitting tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$). The device with the structure of ITO/${\alpha}$-NPD (50 nm)/BCP:DCM2 (0.8 %, 4 nm)/$Alq_3$ (50 nm)/LiF (0.5 nm)/Al shows a white emission with the CIE coordinates (0.329, 0.333). The maximum luminance of 20,800 cd/$m^2$ is obtained at 15.4 V. The power efficiency is 2.6lm/W and the external quantum efficiency is 2.1 % at a luminance of 100 cd/$m^2$ at the bias voltage of 6 V.

  • Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) are widely used as one of the information display techniques. We synthesized (1,10-phenanthroline)- (8-hydroxyquinoline) [Zn(Phen)q]. We studied the improvement of OLEDs properties using Zn(phen)q. The Ionization Potential(IP) and the Electron Affinity(EA) of Zn(phen)q investigated using cyclic voltammetry(CV). The IP, EA and Eg were 7.leV, 3.4eV and 3.7eV, respectively. The PL spectrum of Zn(phen)q was yellowish green as the wavelength of 535nm. In this study, we used Zn(phen)q as electron transporting layer(ETL) inserted between emitting layer(EML) and cathode. As a result, Zn(phen)q is useful as electron transporting layer to enhance the performance of OLEDs.
