The purposes of this study are two-folds: to find out the acoustic features of Korean stops in various utterance positions and their influence on the neighbouring segments. Korean stops($/p,\;p',\;p^{h};\;t,\;t',\;t^{h};\;k,\;k',\;k^{h}/$) are examined from CV, $V_1CV_2,\;V_1NCV_2,\;V_1LCV_2$ sequences. Three speakers (two male and one female speakers of Seoul dialect) served as subjects for the present study. VOT, closure duration of the target stops and duration of the neighbouring segments were measured from acoustic data. The results can be summarized as follows. First, stops show different temporal aspects depending on their place of articulation as well as their voice types. Velar stops tend to have shorter closure duration and longer VOT due to relatively slower movement of the articulator (i.e. tongue body) and higher supraglottal air pressure during the closure, respectively. Second, temporal aspects of the neighbouring segments appear to be influenced by the voice type of stop. The preceding segment tends to be longer when a stop has shorter duration. On the other hand, the following segment tends to be shorter, when a stop has longer VOT.

In this study, we investigated the electro-optical(EO) characteristic of fringe-field switching(FFS) mode cell by the two kinds of ultraviolet(UV) alignment method on the organic thin film(polyimide: PI). The suitable organic layersfor FFS cell and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal(NLC) using the in-situ photoalignment method were studied Disclination is observed after conventional photoalignment method for 1h, and in-situ photoalignment method for 1h. Monodomain alignment of the NLC can be observed via in-situ photoalignment method for 2h and 3h. It is considered that NLC alignment is due to photo-depolymerization of the polymer with oblique non-polarized UV irradiation on PI surface. An unstable V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with conventional photoalignment method can be achieved. However, a stable V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situ photoalignment method(1h), and V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situphotoalignment method was much stable comparing with that of other UV-aligned FFS-LCD's. As a result, more stable EO performanceof UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situphotoalignment method for 3h is obtained than that of the other UV-aligned FFS-LCD's.

In this paper, we propose a new Suppressed Sidewall Injection Magnetotransistor(SSIMT) architecture, which allows to overcome the restriction of the standard CMOS technology and achieve high linearity. The proposed SSIMT is designed based on the Hynix 0.6 um standard CMOS technology. The fabricated SSIMT has been experimentally verified. The SSIMT shows that the change of collector current is extremely linear as a function of the magnetic induction at $I_{B}$ =500$\mu$A, $V_{CE}$ =2V and VSE =5 V. The relative sensitivity is up to 120 %/T. The magnetic conversion offset is about 79 mT with 30.5 %/T relative sensitivity. The nonlinearity of the fabricated SSIMT is measured about 1.4 %.%.

Electrical properties such as surface flashover discharge and discharge degradations of insulating materials for superconducting cable have been investigated. It is found that the surface voltage is proportional to $l^{0.7}$ (l: discharge length) in liquid helium (LHe). V-t characteristic in LHe was a n=5.5 that was less than liquid nitrogen (L $N_{2}$). After applied AC voltage, the surface condition of polymer films was observed non-eroded areas and eroded areas. The eroded area is depending on the applied voltage. In case of LHe, the crack was observed.d.

Facing target dc sputtering system developed by Hoshi et al. has simple configuration and high deposition rate under moderate substrate temperature in the range of pressure 5x10S0-4T - 1x10S0-2T torr. In this system, magnetic field should be applied perpendicular to the target surface in order to confine high energy secondary electrons between two targets. Because of this magnetic field, the glow discharge characteristics are very different from dc planar diode system showing some unstable discharge region. In this paper, the glow discharge characteristics of this system have been studied under the condition of Ti targets with Ar-NS12T(10%) as working gas. It is found that this system has stable discharge region under the discharge current density of 15-30(mA/cmS02T). The plasma density and electron temperature are in the range of 10S010Y - 10S011T(CMS0-3T) and 2.5-5(eV), respectively.

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationships between the various types of activities occurring in domestic space and the resident's characteristics in Belgium. Data for this study was collected by questionnaires mailed to 133 staff member. both academic and administrative. working at The Free University of Brussels. a university serving the Dutch speaking community in Belgium. General leneal model and Duncan test were used in analyzing the data. The major findings of the study can be summarized as follows: First. families in the life-cycle stage of having no children are more likely to relax and watch T.V. and do housework in the master bedroom than those in the launching stage. Families in the life-cycle stage of elementary school are more likely to eat meals in the kitchen than those in the launching period. Second. families made up two members and under tend to do more housework in the master bedroom than those of three and over. Third. those with aged 30 and under are more likely to relax and watch T.V., and to do housework in the master bedroom than those with aged 51 and over. Forth. the renter status of homeownership tend to more relax and watch T.V., and to do housework in the master bedroom than the owner Fifth. those living with less floor space tend to relax and watch T.V. in the master bedroom more than those with larger residences.

T4 Endonuclease V (Mw 16,000) acts as a repair enzyme for UV induced pyrimidine dimers in DNA. Many researchers have studied the biochemical characteristics of the enzyme. However the precise action mechanism of T4 endo V has not fully elucidated yet. In our laboratory NMR spectroscopy technique is being used for the structural study of T4 endo V. Because of its low temperature stability and high content of ${\alpha}$-helix, the conventional $^1$H NMR technique was inapplicable. Therefore we utilized stable isotope labeling technique and so far prepared about 10 amino acid specific labeled proteins. The HSQC spectra of amino acid specific labeled proteins will help us to interpret the triple resonance 3D, 4D data which are under processing, We also studied the behaviors of specific amino acid residues whose roles might be critical. When the enzyme labeled by $\^$15/N-Thr was mixed with the substrate oligonucleotide (semispecific -TT- sequence), one crosspeak in its HSQC spectrum was completely desappeared, which means that one of seven Thr residues is in the binding site of the enzyme with DNA, This result is well consistent with previous report that implicated the Thr 2 residue in the activity of the enzyme. Similar studies were carried on the behaviors of Arg and Tyr residues.

To fabricate low field magnetic sensors using magnetoresistance(MR) effects, we deposited thin layers of $600{\AA}$ in thickness of Ni-Co(0.7Ni-0.3Co) alloy on slide glasses. In the layers we ordered 4 arms of the fullbridge sensors in the shape of grid structure to be inclined at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ to main axis and made the areal rate increase to 67%. While the response characteristics of the fabricated sensors had good linearity in the magnetic field of ${\pm}0.5mT$ ranges, the white noise was 0.2 nV and the voltage sensitivity was 7.6 $nV/{\mu}T$.

In this paper, $TiO_{2}-V_{2}O_{5}$ humidity sensors are fabricated by Sol-Gel method. For the establishment of optimum processing condition which is good humidity sensitive characteristics for specimens, their microstructures and crystalline-structures are analysed. Grain size increases with substitution rate of $V^{5+}$ on $Ti^{4+}$ site. From the analysis of XRD, $V^{5+}$ peak can't confirm with $V_{2}O_{5}$ rate. Their humidity sensitive characteristics is good at 1mol% of $V_{2}O_{5}$ rate and heat-treated at $700^{\circ}C$. The capacitance of specimens decreases with frequency.
