We have studied the effect of the nitrogen on the microstructure, thermomagnetic properties and corrosion resistance of Fe-Hf-C-N nanocrystalline thin films with high permeability and high saturation magnetization. These films were fabricated by reactive sputtering in $Ar+N_{2}$ plasma using an rf magnetron sputtering apparatus. As $P_{N2}$ increases, the microstructure changes from amorphous to crystalline $\alpha$-Fe phase and again returns to amorphous one. Spin wave stiffness constant increases with $P_{N2}$ until 5% $P_{N2}$, and then decreases with the further increase. This trend corresponds well with that of the microstructure with increasing $P_{N2}$. The Fe-Hf-C-N films with over 3% $P_{N2}$ show higher corrosion resistance than the N-free Fe-Hf-C films. The Fe-Hf-C-N films are considered to have high potentials for the head core materials suitable for high density recording systems, owing to their excellent soft magnetic properties and corrosion resistance.

미국 알라바마주의 중서부 지역에 밀집되어 있는 차낼메기 양어장의 수질을 조사하여 양어장 물이 배출되는 그 주변 하천의 수질과 비교하였다. 양어장의 사육 밀도는 헥타르당 10,000마리였으며, 밤 동안(0000-0600)에는 산소를 공급하기 위하여 수차를 사용하였고, 먹이 공급은 일주일에 6일 동안 하였다. 메기 양어장에서 방류되는 사육수의 오염 정도를 알아보기 위하여 양어장의 표층 30cm와 저층에서 1990년과 1991년에, 계절별로 시료를 채취하여 수질 변수를 측정하였다. 수온, 용존산소, pH, 침전성물질, 총부유물질, 휘발성물질, 총인, 용존인, BOD, 총암모니아, 아질산염, 질산염, 그리고 총켈달질소의 평균값은 표층과 저층의 시료사이에 차이가 없었다 (P>0.05). 양어장의 수질은 주변 하천수에 비해서 오염도가 높았으며, 특히 질소와 인의 농도는 아주 높았다.

The thin films of 316L stainless steel were made on glass and S45C substrate by Ion beam assisted deposition with reactive atmosphere of argon and nitrogen. The films were deposited at the various conditions of ion beam power and the ratios of Ar/$N_2$gas. Properties of these films were analyzed by glancing x-ray diffraction method(GXRD), AES, potentiodynamic test, and salt spray test. The results of GXRD showed that austenite phase could be appeared by $N_2$ion beam treatment and the amount of austenite phase increased with the amount of nitrogen gas. The films without plasma ion source treatment had the weak diffraction peak of ferrite phase. But under the Ar plasma ion beam treatment, the strong diffraction peaks of ferrite phase were appeared and the grain size was increased from 12 to 16 nm. Potentiodynamic polarization test and salt spray test indicated that the corrosion properties of the STS 316L films with nitrogen ion source treatment were better than bulk STS 316L steel and STS 316L films with Ar ion source treatment.

In this study, we analyzed the effect of silicon oxynitride matrix on the optical properties of Au nanoparticles dispersed on composite film and explored the effectiveness of the silicon in fine tuning the refractive index of the composite film for applications in optical waveguide devices. The atomic fraction of nitrogen in $SiO_xN_y$ films was controlled by varying the relative flow ratio of nitrogen gas in reactive sputtering and was evaluated optically using an effective medium theory with Bruggeman geometry consisting of a random mixture between $SiO_2$ and $Si_3N_4$. The Au nanoparticles were embedded in the $SiO_xN_y$ matrix by employing the alternating deposition technique and clearly showed an absorption peak due to the excitation of surface plasmon. With increasing nitrogen atomic fraction in the matrix, the surface plasmon resonance wavelength shifted to a longer wavelength (a red-shift) with an enhanced resonance absorption. These characteristics were interpreted using the Maxwell-Garnett effective medium theory. The formation of a guided mode in a slab waveguide consisting of 3 $\mu$m thick Au:$SiO_xN_y$ nanocomposite film was confirmed at the telecommunication wavelength of 1550 nm by prism coupler method and compared with the case of using $SiO_2$ matrix. The use of $SiO_xN_y$ matrix provides an effective way of controlling the mode confinement while maintaining or even enhancing the surface plasmon resonance properties.

The effects of carburizing pressure and gas ratio on vacuum carburizing properties (uniformity and surface characteristics) have been studied through the analyses of carbon concentration, hardness, surface color, surface roughness and type of carbon bonding. AISI 4115 steel specimens were carburized with various pressures (1, 5, and 10 Torr) at different locations (P₁, P₂, P₃, P₄, P₅, and P₆) inside a furnace held at 950 ℃. Since the carburizing pressure represents the density of the carburizing gas, it plays an important role in improving the carburizing uniformity according to locations in the furnace. As the carburizing pressure increased, the carburizing uniformity according to the sample location was improved, but the surface of the carburized specimen was discolored due to the residual acetylene gas, which does not contribute to the carburizing reaction. Therefore, the carburizing uniformity and surface discoloration have been improved by injecting acetylene gas (carburizing gas) and nitrogen gas (non-reactive gas) in a specific ratio.

염류(鹽類)가 축적(축積)된 시설재배지(施設栽培地) 토양에서 토마토에 대한 질소와 칼리의 시비(施肥)반응과 양분수지(養分收支)를 구(求)하여 질소와 칼리의 시비효율(施肥效率) 증진을 위한 방법을 모색(摸索)코자 포장(圃場)실험을 실시하였다. 질소와 칼리의 시비수준(施肥水準)에 따른 토마토 수량은 통계적 유의성(有意性)을 보이지 않았고 오히려 무비구(無肥區)에서 수량이 높은 경향이었다. 일반 노지(露地)에서 질소와 칼리의 시비량을 결정할 때 사용되는 현행(現行) 지표(指標)인 OM과 $K/{\sqrt{Ca+Mg}}$는 염류(鹽類)가 축적(蓄積)된 시설재배 토양에는 맞지 않는 것으로 나타났다. $NO_3-N$의 경시적(經時的) 토심별(土深別) 분포(分布)는 토양과 반응성(反應性)이 작은 $Cl^-$이온과 유사(類似)한 형태를 나타내었다. 한편 Ex.-K의 분포는 초기(初期)에는 $NO^--N$이나 $Cl^-$이온과 유사한 경향(傾向)을 보였으나 수확기(收穫期)에 비교적 건조(乾燥)한 상태를 거친 시험후(試驗後) 토양에서는 비정상적(0非正常的)으로 높아졌다. $NO_3{^-}-N$와 Ex.-K가 토심 28cm 하부(下部)로 용탈(溶脫)되어 손실(損失)되는 양은 식물체(植物體) 흡수량(吸收量)에 비해 각각 2~5와 1.5~3.5배(倍)로 매우 컸다.

본 연구에서는 유기물 및 영양염류로 오염된 해양퇴적물 정화를 위한 석회석, 모래, 제올라이트 피복 공법의 적용성을 평가하였다. 수조 실험을 위한 퇴적물 및 해수 시료는 평택항에서 채취하였으며, 채취된 시료 위에 석회석, 모래, 제올라이트를 1 cm 또는 3 cm 두께로 피복하였다. 63일 동안 수층의 수소이온 농도(pH), 전기전도도(EC), 용존 산소(DO), 화학적 산소 요구량(COD), 총질소(TN), 총인(TP)을 측정하였다. 평택항 퇴적물을 분석한 결과 유기물과 총질소 오염이 높게 나타났다. 미피복 수조에서는 실험 시작 후 10일 이내에 DO가 고갈되었지만, 제올라이트 3 cm 피복을 제외하고 모든 피복 조건에서는 실험 기간 동안 용존 산소는 2 mg/L 이상 유지되었다. COD의 용출 차단 효율은 제올라이트 1 cm > 석회석 1 cm > 석회석 3 cm > 모래 3 cm ${\cong}$ 제올라이트 3 cm ${\cong}$ 모래 1 cm 순으로 나타났다. 질소의 용출 차단에는 제올라이트 피복이 효과적이었다. T-P는 미피복 및 피복 수조 모두에서 나타나지 않았다. 본 연구 결과 제올라이트는 유기물 및 질소 농도가 높은 오염퇴적물 정화를 위한 피복 소재로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was designed to evaluate the mechanism by which reactive nitrogen intermediates (RNI) induced the cytotoxicity of human doparminergic neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. 3-Morpholino-sydnonimine (SIN-l), a donor of peroxynitrite (ONOO) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a donor of nitric oxide (NO) induced cell detachment and apoptotic death, as characterized by chromatin condensation, the ladder pattern fragmentation of genomic DNA and morphological nuclear changes. SIN-l also induced the activation of caspase 3-like protease in a time-dependent manner. Exogenous antioxidants, such as reduced glutathione (GSH), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and selenium protected the cells from apoptotic death and reduced the activation of caspase 3-like protease by SIN-1. Furthermore, SIN-l directly reduced the intracellular levels of glutathione. Taken together, these data suggested that RNI including NO and peroxynitrite decrease the concentration of intracellular antioxidant such as GSH, which lead to the apoptotic death of human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.

Nano-structured carbon nitride $(CN_x)$ films were prepared by reactive RF magnetron sputtering with a DC bias at various deposition conditions, and the physical and electrical properties were investigated. FTIR spectrum indicated an ${alpha}C_3N_4$ peak in the films. The carbon nitride film deposited on Si substrate had a nano-structured surface morphology. The grain size was about 20 nm and the deposition rate was $1.7{\mu}m/hr$. When the $N_2/Ar$ ratio was 3/7, the level of nitrogen incorporation was 34.3 at%. The film had a low dielectric constant. The metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors that the carbon nitride was deposited as insulators, exhibited a typical C-V characteristics.

The treatment with gentamicin in the presence of pretreatment with bismuth nitrate significantly reduced blood urea nitrogen compared with given gentamicin alone. But the amelioration of gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity by bismuth nitrate was abolished by pretreatment with indomethacin that is cyclooxygenase inhibitor, which significantly decreased renal glutathione S-transferase activity and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance compared with mice of given gentamicin and bismuth nitrate. On the other hand, treatment with bismuth nitrate significantly increased prostaglandin $E_2$ production in rat kidney slice. These results suggest that bismuth nitrate might ameliorate the nephrotoxicity of gentamicin via prostaglandin $E_2$ production.
