A powerful tool for chicken transgenesis could be established by employing a germline chimera production through primordial germ cell transplantation. This study was conducted to examine whether foreign gene-transfected gonadal primordial germ cells (gPGCs) have a migration activity into the gonad after transfer to recipient embryos. In Experiment 1, gPGCs of Korean Ogol Chicken were retrieved from 5.5-day-old embryos and subsequently transferred to the dorsal aorta of 2.5-day-old White Leghorn embryos after being labeled with PKH26 fluorescent dye. To confirm migration activity after transplantation, recipient embryos were sacrificed and examined on 3 days after transfer. Sex determination was concomitantly undertaken to examine whether sex of recipient embryos could affect the migration activity of gPGCs. All of embryonic gonads examined showed positive signals with PKH26 fluorescence and W-chromosome specific band by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was detected in male embryos when gPGCs with ZW chromosome were transferred to recipient embryos. In Experiment 2, retrieved gPGCs were transfected with LacZ gene-containing cytomegalovirus promoter ($pCMV{\beta}$) by electroporation and subsequently transferred to recipient embryos. LacZ gene expression was identified in the gonads of 6 or 10-day-old recipient embryos and hatched-chicks. A total of 20 embryos and 12 hatched-chicks were examined and 11 of them (10 embryos and one hatched chicken; 11/32=34.4%) expressed $\beta$-galactosidase, a marker substance of LacZ gene. The results of this study demonstrated that foreign gene-transfected gPGCs can migrate and settle down into the gonad after being transferred into the blood vessel of the recipient embryos. This established technique will contribute to developing a peer biotechnology for transgenic chicken.

Thermal flowfield of a micro turbojet engine was computationally investigated for exhaust nozzles with different aspect ratio and curvature. Special attention was paid to maximum and average temperature of the nozzle surface and the exhaust nozzle plume. The IR signatures of the micro turbojet engine nozzle were then calculated through the narrow-band model based on thermal flowfield data obtained through CFD analysis. Finally, in order to check the similarity of thermal flowfields and IR signature of the sub-scale micro turbojet engine model and the full-scale UCAV propulsion system, several non-dimensional parameters associated with temperature and optical property of plume were introduced. It was shown that, in spite of some differences in actual values of non-dimensional parameters, the scaling characteristics on spectral feature of IR signature and effects of aspect ratio and curvature of nozzle configuration remain similar in sub-scale and full-scale cases.

It is known that the detection of hopping signals without any information about hopping duration and hopping frequency is rather difficult. This paper considers the blind detection of hopping signal's information such as hopping duration and hopping frequency from the sampled wideband signals. In order to find hopping information from the wideband signals, multiple narrow-band filters are required in general, which leads to huge implementation complexity. Instead, this paper employs the polyphase DFT(discrete Fourier transform) filterbank to reduce the implementation complexity. This paper propose hopping signal detection algorithm from the polyphase DFT filterbank output. Specifically, based on the binary image processing, the proposed algorithm is developed to decrease the memory size and H/W complexity. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through the computer simulation and FPGA (field programmable gate array) implementation.

[ $TiO_2$ ] thin films were fabricated by DC magnetron sputtering system at by controlling deposition times, ratios of $Ar:O_2$ partial presser ratio and substrate conditions. And the surface, cross-section morphology, microstructure, and composition ratio of the films were analyzed by FE-SEM, TEM and XPS. Besides, the optical absorption and transmittance of the $TiO_2$ films were measured by a UV-VIS-NIR Spectrophotometer, and photocatalytic properties were studied by G C Analyzer & Data Analysis system. As the result, when $TiO_2$ thin film was made at deposition time of 120[min] and $Ar:O_2$ ratio of 60:40, the best structural and optical properties among many thin films could be accepted. The best results of properties were as follows: thickness; $360{\sim}370[nm]$, grain size; 40[m], gap between two peak binding energy, $5.8{\pm}0.05[eV]$ ($2p_{3/2}$ peak and $2p_{1/2}$ peak of Ti was show at $458.3{\pm}0.05[eV]$ and $464.1{\pm}0.05[eV]$ respectively), binding energy; $530{\pm}0.05\;[eV]$, opticalenergy band gap; 3.4[eV].

Infrared heating has been traditionally used in industrial applications for processes such as dehydration of food industrial. This heating method involves the application of radiation in the wavelength range of 2 to 50 micrometers. In this work, simultaneous heat balance equations were developed to simulate the infrared radiation heating of agricultural products. The equations assume that moisture diffuses to the outer boundaries of the material in liquid form and evaporation occurs at the surface of the agricultural products. Energy for moisture evaporation is supplied by the infrared radiant energy. The optimum temperature and drying time for the best drying conditions of changing the red peppers with the moisture content of 18% and the restore rate of 80~85% are $80^{\circ}C$ and 44 hours. The performance of radiation tubes coating with the radiation paint developed in this research has the energy of $2.27{\times}103W/m^2{\mu}m$, $150^{\circ}C$ within the scope of radiation wave length of $2{\sim}30{\mu}m$ and has the radiation 0.92~0.93, which is superior to the general radiation tubes. The extinction coefficient according to the band pass filter using the 4 flux theory ha higher dependability on wave length, accounting for $2{\sim}17{\mu}m$ and $5{\times}105{\sim}106m-1$. A comparison between the theoretical energy transfer whose figures are interpreted according to 4 flux theory and the experimental energy transfer of far infrared dryer leads to the findings of the agreement less than 5%.

Graphene oxide has been synthesized by microwave-assisted exfoliation of graphite oxide prepared by modified Hummers method. Graphite was oxidized in a solution of $H_2O_2$ and $KMnO_4$ at $65{\sim}80^{\circ}C$, followed by 10 % $H_2O_2$ solution treatment at $80{\sim}90^{\circ}C$. The graphite oxide was exfoliated under microwave irradiation of 1 kW and was reduced to graphene effectively by hydrazine hydrate ($H_4N_2{\cdot}H_2O$) treatment. The exfoliation of graphene oxide was significantly affected by the microwave irradiation on (heating)/off (cooling) period. An on/off period of 10 s/20 s resulted in much more effective exfoliation than that of 5 s/10 s with the same total treatment time of 10 min. This can be explained by the higher exfoliation temperature of 10 s/20 s. Repetition of the graphite oxidation and exfoliation processes also enhanced the exfoliation of graphene oxide. The thickness of the final graphene products was estimated to be several layers. The D band peaks of the Raman spectra of the final graphene products were quite low, suggesting a high crystal quality.

ZnO thin films were grown on a glass by RF sputtering system with RF power 100W and oxygen partial pressure of $0%{/sim}30%$. Elliptic constants were measured by using a phase modulated spectroscopic ellipsometer and analyzed with the Tauc-Lorentz dispersion formula and best fit method in the range of 1.5 to 3.8eV. Also, scanning electron microscope(SEM) was used for the analysis of surface crystallization condition. From elliptic constants spectra, optical constants, thickness and roughness of ZnO films were evaluated. Total thickness of ZnO films obtained by ellipsometry showed good agreement with SEM data. It was found that the grain size of the films were getting smaller with increasing oxygen partial pressure. Band-gap of ZnO films increase with the oxygen partial pressure. These findings clearly indicate that optical properties of ZnO films are strongly dependent on the oxygen partial pressure. It could be explained that increasing the oxygen partial pressure induced high crystalline imperfection in the ZnO films.

ZnO is gathering great interest for large square optoelectrical devices of flat panel display (FHD) and solar cell as a transparent conductive oxide (TCO). Herewith, Mg and IIIA (Al, In) co-doped ZnO films were prepared on SLG substrate using RF magnetron sputtering system. The effect of variation of atomic weight % of Mg and ZnO have been investigated. The atomic weight % Al and In are of 3% and kept constant throughout. The numbers of samples were prepared according to their different contents, which are $M_{3%}AZO_{94%}$, $M_{4%}AZO_{93%}-(MAZO)$ and $M_{3%}IZO_{94%}$, $M_{4%}IZO_{93%}-(MIZO)$ respectively. A RF power of 225 W and working pressure of 6 m Torr was used for the deposition at $300^{\circ}C$. All of the two thin film show good uniformity in field emission scanning electron microscopy image. $M_{3%}AZO_{94%}$ thin film shows overall better performance among the all. The film shows the best lowest resistivity, carrier concentration, mobility and Sheet resistance and is found to be are of $8.16{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$, $4.372{\times}10^{20}/cm^3$, $17.5cm^2/vs$ and $8.9{\Omega}/sq$ respectively. Also $M_{3%}AZO_{94%}$ thin film shows the relatively high optical band gap energy of 3.7 eV with high transmittance more than 80% in visible region required for the better solar cell performance.

We carry out a systematic study of HI shells and supershells in the first Galactic quadrant (l = $32^{\circ}$ to $77^{\circ}$, b = $-10^{\circ}$ to $10^{\circ}$) using the "Inner-Galaxy Arecibo L-band Feed Array (I-GALFA)" HI 21-cm survey data. The high-resolution (3.'4) and high sensitivity (0.2 K) of the survey provide us an opportunity to exploit the true nature of the sources detected in previous low-resolution studies and also to detect faint and/or small shells that were not detectable before. Our work is composed of three parts: (1) confirm the objects in the low-resolution (about 30') catalog of Heiles (1979), (2) search for fast-expanding HI shells associated with Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs), and (3) search for new shell structures. Among the 21 Heiles' supershells in the I-GALFA survey area, we confirm fourteen. The high resolution data reveal their complex morphology, and provide direct evidence for expansion in some sources. Among the 39 Galactic SNRs in the survey area, we find five with associated fast expanding HI shells, which is consistent with previous results. A remarkable result from the SNR study is the detection of HI gas at very high negative velocities in the SNR W44 that should be from the approaching part of the HI expanding shell. This is the first time to detect both the approaching and receding sides of an expanding shell in HI 21-cm emission line in SNRs. We have found 33 new shell candidates of angular sizes ranging from 0.5 to 6.5 degrees, half of which appear to be expanding. We summarize these results and discuss some individual interesting objects in detail.
