Large colorless single crystals of faujasite-type zeolite with diameters up to 200 μm have been synthesized from gels with the composition of 3.58SiO2:2.08NaAlO2:7.59NaOH:455H2O:5.06TEA:1.23TCl. Two of these, colorless octahedron about 200 μm in cross-section have been treated with aqueous 0.1 M TlC2H3O2 and KNO3 in order to prepare Tl+- and K+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolites, respectively, and then determined the Si/Al ratio of the zeolite framework. The crystal structures of |Tl71|[Si121Al71O384]-FAU and |K53Na18|[Si121Al71O384]-FAU per unit cell, a = 24.9463(2) and 24.9211(16) A, respectively, dehydrated at 673 K and 1 × 10-6 Torr, have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd m at 294 K. The two single-crystal structures were refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 905 and 429 reflections for which Fo > 4σ(Fo)) R1/R2 = 0.059/0.153 and 0.066/0.290, respectively. In the structure of fully Tl+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolite, 71 Tl+ ions per unit cell are located at four different crystallographic sites. Twenty-nine Tl+ ions fill site I' in the sodalite cavities on 3-fold axes opposite double 6-rings (Tl-O = 2.631(12) A and O-Tl-O = 93.8(4)o). Another 31 Tl+ ions fill site II opposite single 6-rings in the supercage (Tl-O = 2.782(12) A and O-Tl-O = 87.9(4)o). About 3 Tl+ ions are found at site III in the supercage (Tl-O = 2.91(6) and 3.44(3) A), and the remaining 8 occupy another site III (Tl-O = 2.49(5) and 3.06(3) A). In the structure of partially K+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolite, 53 K+ ions per unit cell are found at five different crystallographic sites and 18 Na+ ions per unit cell are found at two different crystallographic sites. The 4 K+ ions are located at site I, the center of the hexagonal prism (K-O = 2.796(8) A and O-K-O = 89.0(3)o). The 10 K+ ions are found at site I' in the sodalite cavity (K-O = 2.570(19) A and O-KO = 99.4(9)o). Twenty-two K+ ions are found at site II in the supercage (K-O = 2.711(9) A and O-K-O = 94.7(3)o). The 5 K+ ions are found at site III deep in the supercage (K-O = 2.90(5) and 3.36(3) A), and 12 K+ ions are found at another site III' (K-O = 2.55(3) and 2.968(18) A). Twelve Na+ ions also lie at site I' (Na-O = 2.292(10) and O-Na-O = 117.5(5)o). The 6 Na+ ions are found at site II in the supercage (Na-O = 2.390(17) A and O-Na-O = 113.1(11)o). The Si/Al ratio of synthetic faujasite-type zeolite is 1.70 determined by the occupations of cations, 71, in two single-crystal structures.

Ni-rich system $Li[Ni_{1-x-y}Co_xMn_y]O_2$ of lithium secondary battery cathode material keep a high discharge capacity. However, by the Ni content increases, there is a problem that the electrochemical properties and stability of the structure are reduced. In order to solve these problems, research for positive ion doping is performed. The one of the cathode material, barium-doped $Li[Ni_{0.6-x}Ba_xCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.3}]O_2$ (x=0.01), was synthesized by the precursor, $Ni_{0.6}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.3}(OH)_2$, from the co-precipitation method. The barium doped materials have studied the structural and electrochemical properties. The analysis of structural properties, results of X-ray diffraction analysis, and those results confirmed the change of the lattice from the binding energy in the structure by barium doping. Increased stability of the layered structure was observed by $I_{(006)}+I_{(102)}/I_{(101)}$(R-factor) ratio decrease. we expected that the electrochemical characteristics are improved. 23 mAh/g discharge capacity of barium-doped $Li[Ni_{0.6-x}Ba_xCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.3}]O_2$ (x=0.01) electrode is higher than discharge capacity of $Li[Ni_{0.6}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.3}]O_2$ due to decrease overvoltage. And, through the structural stability was confirmed that improved the cycle characteristics. We caused a reduction in charge transfer resistance between the electrolyte and the electrode was confirmed that the C-rate characteristics are improved.

Melt-spun $Nd_{14}Fe_{76}Co_4B_6$ and $Nd_{10.5}Fe_{79}Co_2Zr_{1.5}B_7$ ribbons were prepared under an externally applied magnetic field. Magnetic properties in terms of anisotropy were evaluated by discussing the effect of textured structure of the ribbon samples as well as its powders. About 32 % increase in $(B{\cdot}H)_{max}$ and 18.8 % increase in $B_r$ were observed along the perpendicular direction of the ribbon plane which is more prominent for the Nd-Fe-Co-Zr-B than for the Nd-Fe-Co-B alloy. The enhancement of magnetic anisotropy was monitored by measuring the anisotropy constant of each alloy as a function of quenching rate of the ribbon. It was found that for the melt-spun ribbon quenched at slow rate(less than 7 m/s) the magnetic field effect was overwhelmed by the heat gradient effect through the ribbon thickness while the field effect was prominent at intermediate quenching rate (more than 7~11 m/s). The reproducible maximum energy product, $(B{\cdot}H)_{max}$=16.4 MGOe can be obtained from the Nd-Fe-Co-Zr-B alloy.

All solid-state thin film micro-batteries consisting of lithium metal anode, an amorphous LiPON electrolyte and cathode of vanadium oxide have been fabricated and characterized, which were fabricated with cell structure of $Li/LiPON/V_2O_5Pt$. The effect of various oxygen partial pressure on the electrochemical properties of vanadium oxide thin films formed by d.c. reactive sputtering deposition were investigated. The vanadium oxide thin film with deposition condition of $20\%\;O_2/Ar$ ratio showed good cycling behavior. In in-siか process, the LiPON electrolyte was deposited on the $V_2O_5$ films without breaking vacuum by r.f. magnetron sputtering at room temperature. After deposition of the amorphous LiPON, the Li metal films were grown by a thermal evaporator in a dry room. The charge-discharge cycle measurements as a function of current density and voltage variation revealed that the $Li/LiPON/V_2O_5$ thin film had excellent rechargeable properly when current density was $7{\mu}A/cm^2$. and cut-off voltage was between 3.6 and 2.7V In practical experiment, a stopwatch ran on this $Li/LiPON/V_2O_5$ thin film micro-battery. This result means that thin film micro-battery fabricated by in-siか process is a promising for power source for electronic devices.

In this paper, we report on the growth and optical characteristics of white-LED without fluorescent material. The growth of DH(double heterostructure) with AlGaN active layer was performed on a n-GaN/(0001) $Al_{2}O_{3}$ by the mixed-source HVPE and multi-sliding boat. The CRI(color rendering index) of packaging device charged in the range 72-93 with CIE chromaticity coordinates(x=$0.26{\sim}0.34$, y=$0.31{\sim}0.40$). And CCT(correlated color temperature) values was measured $5126{\sim}10406K$ with increasing injection current. The CIE point of conventional phosphor white LED shifts blue region, but cm point of non-phosphor white LED shifts opposite direction. These results show the mixed-source HVPE can be possible to newly fabricate method of phosphor free white LED with high CRI value.

Herein, we report on the co-firing of a low-K wiring substrate and a middle-K functional substrate in LTCC. Firstly, we researched the sintering behavior and dielectric properties of the low-k wiring substrate comprised by alumina and glass frit with ${\varepsilon}_r$, of $\sim7$ and the middle-k functional substrate comprised by $Ba_{5}Nb_{4}O_{15}$ and glass frit with ${\varepsilon}_r$, of $20\sim30$. The warpage and delamination between the hetero layers of the low-K and the middle-K composition were also studied. In particular, physical matching of the hetero layers could be possible by adjusting of the sintering properties of the composition. We observed that an introduction of the glass frit to the low- and middle-K substrate gives rise to a minimization of an effect given by separation of the hetero layers, and modification of the fraction of the glass frit accompanied by a variation of the composition could control the sintering behavior and its beginning temperature. In the case of co-firing of the L03 as the low-K wiring substrate composition and the M03 as the middle-K functional substrate composition at $875^{\circ}C$, we could fabricate a desirable structure of hetero layers without any kinds of structural defects such as separation, warpage, delamination, pore trap, etc. We suppose that the co-firing techniques described in this study would provide a helpful method to fabricate a LTCC multi-functional for the next generation.

To investigate the vegetation structure of mountain ridge from Guryongryeong to Mt. Yaksu, 22 plots ($100m^2$) installed with random sampling method were surveyed. Three groups of Quercus mongolica-Acer pseudosieboldianum community, Q. mongolica community, Cornus controversa-Q. mongolica community were classified by cluster analysis. Q. mongolica was a major woody plant species in the ridge area from Guryongryeong to Yaksusan and Carpinus cordata and C. controversa was partly occupied in some area. High positive correlations showed between Q. mongolica and Symplocos chinensis for. pilosa, Rhododendron schlippenbachii; Tilia amurensis and Tilia mandshurica, Symplocos chinensis for. pilosa; Tilia mandshurica and S. chinensis for. pilosa, R. schlippenbachii; Betula costata and Acer mono; Symplocos chinensis for. pilosa and Rhododendron schlippenbachii, and relatively high negative correlations showed between A. pseudosieboldianum and S. chinensis for. pilosa, R. schlippenbachii. Species diversity(H') of investigated groups were ranged 0.8170~1.1446 and it was lower compared to those of the ridge area of the national parks in Baekdudaegan.

Korean Native Pig (KNP) has a uniform black coat color, excellent meat quality, white colored fat, solid fat structure and good marbling. However, its growth performance is low, while the western origin Yorkshire pig has high growth performance. To take advantage of the unique performance of the two pig breeds, we raised crossbreeds (KNP ${\times}$ Yorkshire to make use of the heterotic effect. We then analyzed the liver transcriptome as it plays an important role in fat metabolism. We sampled at two stages: 10 weeks and at 26 weeks. The stages were chosen to correspond to the change in feeding system. A total of 16 pigs (8 from each stage) were sampled and RNA sequencing was performed. The reads were mapped to the reference genome and differential expression analysis was performed with edgeR package. A total of 324 genes were found to be significantly differentially expressed (${\left|log2FC\right|}$ > 1 & q < 0.01), out of which 180 genes were up-regulated and 144 genes were down-regulated. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) showed that the samples clustered according to stages. Functional annotation of significant DEGs (differentially expressed genes) showed that GO terms such as DNA replication, cell division, protein phosphorylation, regulation of signal transduction by p53 class mediator, ribosome, focal adhesion, DNA helicase activity, protein kinase activity etc. were enriched. KEGG pathway analysis showed that the DEGs functioned in cell cycle, Ras signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway etc. Twenty-nine transcripts were also part of the DEGs, these were predominantly Cys2His2-like fold group (C2H2) family of zinc fingers. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis showed that there were three highly interconnected clusters, suggesting an enrichment of genes with similar biological function. This study presents the first report of liver tissue specific gene regulation in a cross-bred Korean pig.

The bacterial community structure in biological activated carbon (BAC) process in drinking water treatment plant was investigated by Fluorescent in situ Hybridization (FISH) with rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probe. Samples were collected at different three points in BAC process every month for one year. They were hybridized with a probe specific for the alpha, beta, gamma subclass of the class Proteobacteria, Cytophaga-Flavobacteria group and Gram-positive high G+C content (HGC) group. Total numbers of bacteria in BAC process counted by 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining were $5.4{\times}10^{10}$ (top), $4.0{\times}10^{10}$ (middle) and $2.8{\times}10^{10}$ cells/ml (bottom). The number of the culturable bacteria was from $1.0{\times}10^7$ to $3.6{\times}10^7$ cells/ml and the culturability was about 0.05%. The faction of bacteria detectable by FISH with the probe EUB338 was about 83% of DAPI counts. Gamma and alpha subclass of the class Proteobacteria were predominant in BAC process and their ratios were over 20% respectively. In top and middle, alpha, beta and gamma subclass of the class Proteobacteria competed with each other and their percentages was changed according to the season. In bottom, gamma subclass of the class Proteobacteria was predominant all through the year. It could be successfully observed the seasonal distribution of bacterial community in biological activated carbon process using FISH.

Temporomandibular joint is a major structure to play an important role in the function & stability of the occlusion as well as the stomatognathic system. Therefore, the TMJ is the structure that requires the complete analysis for diagnosing and planning treatment of pathologic changes by TMJ dysfunction and malocclusion. So, in this study, to evaluate TMJ situation in Korean malocclusion, based on the previous accomplishments, students of the dental college of Won-Kwang Univ. are surveyed and selected in terms of Angle's classification of malocclusion, whose TMJ radiographs were taken in the centric occlusion and centric relation. In each maiocclusion groups, the mean and standard deviation of anterior, posterior and superior joint space of the right, left and both side in CO & CR are evaluated and also those of the fossa height and the articular eminence angle of the right, left and both sides are evaluated. The obtained results were as follows: 1. In the correlation coefficient between the malocclusion groups, no other items except the posterior joint space of the right side in CR between in class I and class III are significant. 2. In the correlation coefficient between the right and left side, the each joint space in class I malocclusion group and class II malocclusion group are significant. 3. In the change of each joint space during the transmit from CO to CR, there is a tendency of increasing anterior joint space and decreasing posterior, superior joint spaces in class I, II malocclusion and increasing superior joint space and decreasing anterior, posterior joint space in class III malocclusion, which is significant in the correlation coefficient, but not significant in the T-test. 4. In each malocclusion group, the correlation coefficient between the posterior joint space and the superior joint space in C.R is highly significant. 5. The fossa height of class II malocclusion group is lesser than that of class I or class III, which is not significant in T-test. 6. In the correlation coefficient between Rt. and Lt. side in the fossa height, it is not significant in class I and class III group, but significant in class II malocclusion group. 7. The articular eminence angle of class II malocclusion group is larger then that of class I or class III groups, which is fairly significant. 8. In the correlation coefficient between Rt. and Lt. side in the articular eminence angle, it is significant in each malocclusion group.
