  • The prepartion of various metal oxide nanostructures via hydrothermal method, hydrolysis, thermal evaporation and electrospinning and their applications to chemoresistive sensors have been investigated. Hierarchical and hollow nanostructures prepared by hydrothermal method and hydrolysis showed the high response and fast responding kinetics on account of their high gas accessibility. Thermal evaporation and electrospinning provide the facile routes to prepare catalyst-loaded oxide nanowires and nanofibers, respectively. The loading of noble metal and metal oxide catalyst were effective to achieve rapid response/recovery and selective gas detection.

  • We studied the characteristics of emissive state of the first (p-G1) and second (p-G2) generation of phenylacetylene dendrimers bearing stilbene as a core by using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy in cyclohexane (c-Hex) and N, N-dimethylformide (DMF), which are nonpolar and polar solvents, respectively. Time-dependent red-shift of emission spectra p-G2 both in c-Hex and DMF was observed in comparison with p-G1. Besides, the time constant of red-shift of spectra was found to be larger in DMF than in c-Hex. This indicates that the emissive state of p-G2 has a polar character in DMF as a result of charge delocalization from core to peripheral dendrons followed by stabilization of emissive state.

  • Camptothecin productoin was increased with elicitors, methyl jasmonate, jasmonic acid, yeast extract elicitor, and ferulic acid in suspension cultures of Camptotheca acuminata. Jasmonic acid was found to be the most efficient elicitor. Camptothecin production increased 11 times by using the optimum dosing concentration of jasmonic acid which was 50 ${\mu}$M. The kinetics of camptothecin accumulation in response to the treatment with jasmocin acid showed that the comptothecin accumulation reached the maximum value at 4 days after jasmonic acid dosing and then a rapid decrease in camptothecin accumulation was observed.

  • The rapid quenching dynamics of the F-center excitation by CN- defects in CsCl crystals were investigated by monitoring the ground state bleach recovery kinetics of F-centers, using a picosecond streak camera absorption spectrometer. The F-centers in CN- doped quenched samples show two bleach recovery components. Optical aggregation converts the slow component to the fast component. The slow one is due to the normal relaxation of the F*-centers as found in CN_ free crystals. The fast one is due to the energy transfer of the F-center electronic excitation to the vibrational energy levels of CN_ molecualr defects. The energy transfer occurs only in the F-center-CN_ defect pairs, FH(CN_)-centers.

  • The static softening behavior of AISI 4140 could be characterized by the hot torsion test in the temperature ranges of 10$0^{\circ}C$~120$0^{\circ}C$ and strain rate ranges of 0.05/sec~5/sec. Deformation efficiency which was based on dynamic materials model was calculated from flow stress curves obtained continuous deformation. Interrupted deformation was performed with 2 pass deformation in the pass strain ranges of 0.25{{{{ epsilon _p}}}} ~3{{{{ epsilon _p}}}} and interrupted time ranges of 0.5~100sec. The dependences of process variables pass strain ({{{{ epsilon _i}}}}) stain rate ({{{{ {. } atop {$\varepsilon$ } }}}}) temperature (T) and interpass time ({{{{ {t }_{i } }}}}) on static recrystallization (SRX) and metadynamic recrystallization .(MDRX) could be indicidually predicted from the modified Avrami's equations. Comparison of the softening kinetics between MDRX and SRX showed that the rate of MDRX was more rapid than that of SRX for the same deformation variables. Controlled multipass deformations were performed using deformation efficiency static and metadynamic recrystallization of AISI 4140.

  • The effect of Bi additions to the eutectic Sn-3.5Ag solder alloy on the growth kinetics of the intermetallic compound (IMC) layers during solid-state aging of Sn-Ag-Bi/Cu solder joints has been Investigated. The Bi additions enhanced the growth rate of the total IMC layer comprising of $Cu_6Sn_5$ and $Cu_3Sn$ sublayers. This enhanced IMC growth rate was primarily due to the rapid increase In the growth rate of $Cu_6Sn_5$ sublayer. The growth rate of $Cu_3Sn$ sublayers was little influenced and appeared to be retarded by the Bi additions. The observed growth behavior of $Cu_6Sn_5$ and $Cu_3Sn$ sublayers could be understood if the interfacial reaction barrier at the $Cu_6Sn_5/solder$ interface were reduced by the segregation of Bi at the interface.

  • Drying characteristics of fresh Korean-type rehmannia (jiwhang) noodle was investigated to determine drying kinetic parameters under the experimental conditions of 5 temperatures (30, 40, 60, 80, and $90^{\circ}C$). Drying curve of the noodle showed a biphasic pattern of decrease in drying rate with initial rapid drying followed by slow dehydration as the progress in drying. In all drying conditions, only falling drying rate period was observed and the drying rate of the noodle was greatly influenced by the drying temperature. The effective diffusion coefficients ($D_{eff}$) were determined by the diffusion model and their temperature dependency was determined using an Arrhenius equation. The activation energy ($E_a$) values for the drying of the noodle were 19.94 and 21.09 kJ/mol at the initial and the latter stage of dehydration, which were comparable to those of pasta or Japanese udong dehydration.

  • The high temperature tetragonal phase of zirconia containing $1.40{\~}1.60\;mol\%$ of yttria can be fully retained at room temperature by rapid cooling. The metastable tetragonal phase transforms into the monoclinic phase athermally upon subzero cooling. The transformation exhibited an athermal burst transformation. The effects of yttria content and grain size on the athermal martensitic transformation were studied in detail. The burst temperature linearly decreased with increasing yttria content or decreasing grain size. To consider the distribution of martensite nuclei, the Weibull modulus of the athermal martensitic transformation was evaluated from the distribution of the burst transformation temperature. From the Weibull analysis, the distribution of embryos appears to be more homogeneous than that of the defects responsible for the fracture of similar material.

  • The potential energy surface (PES) for the dissociation of the 2-hydroxypyridine (2-HP) radical cation was determined from G3//B3LYP calculations, including the loss of CO, HCN, and HNC. The formation of the 1H-pyrrole radical cation by decarbonylation through a more stable tautomer, the 2-pyridone (2-PY) radical cation, was the most favorable dissociation pathway. Kinetic analysis by the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus model calculations was carried out based on the obtained PES. It is proposed that the dissociation occurs after a rapid tautomerization to 2-$PY^{{\cdot}+}$, and that most of the ions generated by ionization of 2-HP have the structure of 2-$PY^{{\cdot}+}$ at equilibrium above the tautomerization barrier.
