This study investigated the crystal growth, crystalline structure and the basic optical properties of $SnSe/BaF_2$ epilayers. The SnSe epilayer was grown on $BaF_2$(111) insulating substrates using a hot wall epitaxy(HWE) technique. It was found from the analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns that $SnSe/BaF_2$ epilayer was growing to single crystal with orthorhombic structure oriented [111] along the growth direction. Using Rutherford back scattering(RBS), the atomic ratios of the SnSe was found to be stoichiometric, almost 50 : 50. The best values for the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the DCXRD was 163 arcsec for SnSe epilarer. The epilayer-thickness dependence of the FWHM of the DCXRD shows that the quality of the $SnSe/BaF_2$ is as expected. The dielectric function ${\varepsilon}$(E) of a semiconductor is closely related to its electronic energy band structure and such relation can be drawn from features around the critical points in the optical spectra. The real and imaginary parts(${\varepsilon}_1$ and ${\varepsilon}_2$) of the dielectric function ${\varepsilon}$ of SnSe were measured. These data are analyzed using a theoretical model known as the model dielectric function(MDF). The optical constants related to dielectric function such as the complex refractive index(n*-n+ik), absorption coefficient (${\alpha}$) and normal- incidence reflectivity (R) are also presented for $SnSe/BaF_2$.

Purpose: In order to clarify the carcinogenesis mechanism from chronic atrophic gastritis toward gastric cancer, we measured the pepsinogen I and II and compared their ratio with several clinical findings. Materials and Methods: We measured the preoperative serum pepsinogen I and II by using a radio-immunoassay and compared their ratio with several clinical findings, such as tumor size, mucinous vs non-mucinous tumor, cell differentiation, tumor location, depth of invasion, lymph-node status, Lauren's classification, and peritumoral atrophy in 103 consecutive patients with gastric adenocarcinomas who had received resections at Bundang CHA Hospital during the period from July 2003 to February 2005. Results: There were significant differences in the serum pepsinogen I/II ratio between patients with mucinous vs non-mucinous tumors (n=4 vs 9 and mean pep I/II=1.29 vs. 2.99, p=0.0288), with tumor size more than and less than $10cm^2$ (n=55 vs. 48 and mean pep I/II=2.64 vs. 3.24, p=0.0491), and with or without peritumoral atrophy (n=94 vs. 9 and mean pep I/II=2.83 vs. 3.89, p=0.0466). In patients with peritomoral atrophy, the pepsinogen I/II ratio was also lower in larger tumors (n=48 vs. 46 and mean pep I/II=2.44 vs. 3.23, p=0.0083). Well-differentiated carcinomas showed significantly lower serum pep I/II ratios than signet-ring-ceil types. There was no correlation between serum pep I/II ratio and tumor location, depth of invasion, lymph-node status, or Lauren's classification Conclusion: We proved the existence of a correlation between serum pepsinogen level and musosal atrophy, but these results are not sufficient for clinical application of serum pepsinogen level as a screening tool for gastric cancer.

[ $FeCr_2Se_4$ ] prepared under the high pressure (3 GPa) has been studied with x-ray, neutron diffraction techniques, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer, resistance, and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of resistance is explained by Mott-VRH and small polaron model for the regions I (T<20 K) and II (T>42 K), respectively. Neutron diffraction results show an antiferromagnetic spin-lattice coupling near the Neel temperature. So finally the distance of atom is enlarged in region (110$FeCr_2Se_4$ shows convex type of temperature dependence.

ZnO 나노선 구조는 나노선 구조를 통해 입사한 빛을 산란시켜 광흡수를 촉진시키고, 바닥 전극으로 바로 이어진 수직의 1차원 구조를 통해 전자가 빠르게 이동할 수 있으며, 넓은 표면적을 가지고 있는 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 오래전부터 광전소자에 이용되었다. 하지만 ZnO 물질 자체의 밴드갭 에너지가 3.2 eV로 비교적 큰 편이라 가시광 영역의 빛을 흡수, 이용하기 위해서는 작은 밴드갭을 가지는 광감응 물질이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 저온의 수열합성법을 통해 합성한 ZnO 나노선 구조 상에 Cd 계열의 무기물 양자점을 증착하여 이종구조를 형성하는 방법을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 양자점인 CdS와 CdSe는 벌크 밴드갭 에너지가 각각 2.3 eV, 1.7 eV로 가시광 영역의 빛을 흡수할 수 있으며, ZnO 나노선과 type-II 밴드구조를 가지기 때문에 전자-정공 분리 및 포집에 유리하다. 합성된 구조를 이용하여 photoelectrochemical 특성을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 양자점의 증착으로 광전류 생성이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 특히 ZnO 나노선 상에 CdS 양자점 증착 후 추가적으로 CdSe 양자점을 증착하여 다중접합 나노선 구조를 형성한 경우 광전류 생성이 가장 크게 향상된 결과를 확인하였다.

The olfactory anatomy and histology of Lethenteron reissneri were researched using a stereo microscope, a light microscope, and a scanning electron microscope. As in other lampreys, it shows same characters as follows: i) a single olfactory organ, ii) a single tubular nostril, iii) a single olfactory chamber with gourd-like form, iv) a nasal valve, v) a nasopharyngeal pouch, vi) a sensory epithelium (SE) of continuous distribution, vii) a supporting cells with numerous long cilia, viii) an accessory olfactory organ. However, the description of a pseudostratified columnar layer in the SE and Non SE is a first record, not reported in sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus. In particular, both 19 to 20 lamellae in number and olfactory receptor neuron's quarter ciliary length of the knob diameter differ from those of P. marinus. From these results, it might be considered that the olfactory organ of L. reissneri shows well adaptive structure of a primitive fish to slow flowing water with gravel, pebbles, and sand and a hiding habit into sand bottom at daytime. The lamellar number and neuron's ciliary length may be a meaningful taxonomic character for the class Petromyzonida.

In order to investigate the treatment efficiency of pollutants in free water surface constructed wetlands (FWS CWs) with lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) cultivation pond, the experiment was consisted of two sites (site I and II) in Lake Juam, Korea. The sites were configured a lotus cultivation pond (with fertilizer application) - a dropwort bed - a reed bed for site I, and a lotus cultivation pond (without fertilizer application) - a dropwort bed - a reed bed for site II. Removal rate of COD in site I and II were 13.3% and 26.0%, respectively. Removal rate of total nitrogen (TN) was 29.7% for site I, and 36.3% for site II. Removal rate of total phosphorus (TP) in site I and II were 36.0% and 36.5%, respectively. COD, TN and TP in effluent from site I (with fertilizer) was higher than that in site II (without fertilizer), showing that COD, TN and TP in effluent were strongly influenced by fertilizer addition. Therefore, in order to satisfy established water-quality standards, the amount of fertilizer used in lotus cultivation showed be evaluated.
