Solution-based MOD-TFA deposition technology of YBCO layers offers a route to low-cost YBCO coated conductors. Since the structures and properties of grown thin film by MOD process are strongly influenced by chemistry of precursor solution, the chemical modification of precursor solution for MOD process are important for improvement of the electrical properties of YBCO films. In this study, the precursor solution for MOD process are modified by chemical additives and solvents. The microstructure and texture of YBCO films grown by chemically modified precursor solution were characterized with SEM/EDS, XRD.

We have investigated the MOD process successfully for the fabrication of the YBCO thick film on the $LaAlO_3$(001) single crystalline substrate. The cracking problem in YBCO thick film, a serious problem in the conventional TFA-MOD method, could be overcome with a careful control of precursor materials. Thus coating solution was prepared for the YBCO thick film by using fluorine-free precursor material. The precursor solutions were coated on the LAO(001) single crystalline substrate using the dip coating method, calcined at the temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$, and fired at various high temperatures for 2 h in a reduced oxygen atmosphere. Optimally processed YBCO thick film exhibited high critical current($I_c$) over 200 A/cm-width at 77K in self-field.

In order to improve physico-chemical properties and to enhance stability of drugs, amino acid salt has been widely adoptd in pharmaceutical synthesis. Acetylsalicylic acid lysinate is one of the widely used analgesics and it is a good example of t5his synthesis. In the case of bacetylsalicylic acid lysinate synthesis, racemization of natrually occurred lysine is esential because the racemic lysine salt of the drug shows better yield, crystallinity and dryness than that of the L-lysine salt. To esatablish a simple, practical and economical process for L-lysine racemization, L-lysine treatments with phosphoric acid and with acetic acid were compared and the optimum conditions for its process and derivatization were investigated by chiral separation methods using GC_MS spectroscopy.

After establishment of methodology for the separation and quantitation of optical isomer existed in food or biomaterial, the relationship between isomer and nutrient or biological sample was investigated. The optical isomers of standard amino acids and free amino acids were quantitized and the protein was assayed from the Korean bean, pasted bean, soy sauce, gochujang, powderd milk and cataract followed by hydrolysis and dervatization with TFA-IPA for GLC analysis with chirasil val column. Amino acids showing the racemization were alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and phenyl alanine. The most convenient amino acid deducing age and biological activity was aspartic acid. Glutamic acid and phenyl alanine have shown poor resolution with less racemization. The ratio of d-form amino acids was 3~6% for home made pasted bean, about 3% for commerical pasted bean, 2~4% for soy sauce, about 1% for bean, 1~2% for cataract, 1.0~1.5% for powdered milk. The racemization during fermentation process was significant.

YBCO coated conductors have been fabricated with a newly developed oxide-precursor-based MOD process. The precursor solution was synthesized with low cost YBCO powders as starting materials and YBCO coated conductors have been deposited on IBAD substrate ($CeO_2$/IBAD-YSZ/SS). YBCO coated conductor prepared by dip coating shows transport $I_c$ of 15A/cm-w at 77 K. Microstructural and crystallographic analyses indicate that YBCO layer was grown in epitaxy with substrate and exhibited well-developed dense microstructure. Also discussed are processing and analysis of YBCO coated conductor by slot-die web coating method. It was shown that this oxide-based MOD process provides a low cost route to coated conductor with high $J_c$.

The total Fluorine content in the precursor solution for MOD processing of YBCO coated conductors can be significantly reduced by synthesizing precursor solution with F-free Y & Cu precursor and Barium trifluoroacetate(TFA). It was shown that crack-free and uniform precursor films were formed after calcinations in humidified oxygen atmosphere. Less than 2 hours are required to finish the calcinations process and XRD measurement shows that $BaF_2,\;CuO,\;Y_2O_3$ are major constituent of calcined precursor films. Film thickness after calcinations was improved to be 2.8um by applying slot-die coating method. In particular, addition of Samarium shows critical current of $I_c=273A/cm-w(J_c=3.8MA/cm^2)$. It is shown that uniform and fast processing route to YBCO coated conductor with high Ic can be provided by employing F-free Y & Cu precursor solution in MOD process.

The gas chromatographic behavior of optically active N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide used as stationary phase is described. N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide has been synthesized with good yield under mild condition via Schotten-Bauman process and coated on the Chromosorb W AW (80-100mesh) for the purpose of enantiomer separation. The behavior of this compound as optically active stationary phase for the separation of the enantiomers of N-TFA-D, L-amino acid isopropyl esters has been examined with respect to the correlation between the separation factors and column temperatures. All amino acid enantiomers examined were eluted within one hour and the elution pattern showed retention times increasing in the order of alanine, valine, leucine, threonine, proline and methionine.

The growth properties of MOD-YBCO films were investigated. To enhance the growth rate of YBCO layer and inhibit the build-up of HF gas during the annealing process in TFA-MOD for YBCO coated conductors the method of low pressure annealing was employed. Total pressure was changed from 700Torr to 1Torr and its effect on growth of YBCO films was compared with atmospheric one. The lower Pressure was effective to control of the pore size in MOD method . Surface morphology of YBCO films processed at low total pres sure was rough and composed of random YBCO (103) grains. But large pores, usually observed at atmospheric process in MOD disappeared and also the number of pores was reduced at low pressure annealing. Also discussed ate the effects of Fluorine-free Y and Cu precursor solution on the development of microstructure. Dense surface me phology and with less and small pores can be provided through controlling Fluorine content.
