  • 물질의 구조 특성파악에 많이 사용되는 X-선과 전자선에 대한 소스 원을 살펴보고 물질과의 반응을 atomic scattering factor의 항으로 설명하였다. 물질과의 회절을 역 격자 공간에서의 Ewald sphere로 설명하고 유한 크기의 소스 파장과 검출기의 효과도 함께 고려하였다.

  • 분자선증착법으로 (0001) 사파이어 기판 위에 $Al_xGa_1-_xN$ 에피층을 AlN 몰비를 변화시키면서 성장시켰다. AlN 몰비는 0.16에서 0.76까지 변화시켰으며 X선의 회절 실험과 Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy 방법을 이용하여 AlN 몰비를 결정하였다. $Al_xGa_1-_xN$ 에피층의 깊이 방향의 조성 변화를 관찰하였으며 스퍼터 시간에 대해 각 원소가 일정한 원자 농도를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. AlN 몰비의 증가에 따른 표면 특성의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 atomic force microscopy 측정을 수행하였다. 표면에서의 입자 모양이 AlN 몰비가 변화함에 따라 원형에서 침상형태로 변화함을 알 수 있었다. 표면 입자에 대한 root mean square 값과 average roughness 값을 구하였으며 AlN 몰비를 바꿈에 따라 나타나는 변화를 관찰하였다.

  • Syntheses of some novel oxomolybdenum(V) and dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes with an azo dye methoxyphenolazoantipyrine (HL) derived from 4-aminoantipyrine and 2-methoxyphenol are reported. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility data, IR, UV-Vis, $^1H$ NMR, EPR and FAB mass spectral studies. The physicochemical studies and spectral data indicate that HL acts as a bidentate chelating ligand. The complexes have the general formulae [$MoO(HL)XCl_2$] and [$MoO_2(HL)XCl$],where X=Cl, NCS or $NO_3$. All the complexes are found to have distorted octahedral geometry. Structural and morphological characterization of the complexes [$MoO(HL)Cl_3$](1) and [$MoO_2(HL)Cl_2$](4) before and after gamma ray irradiation,was performed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy( SEM).The ligand and the complexes were screened for their possible antimicrobial activities.

  • ZnO and $SnO_2$, well-known wide direct band-gap semiconductors, have been considered as the most promising functional materials due to their highly sensitive gas sensing and excellent optical properties. ZnO/$SnO_2$ epitaxial hetrostructure exhibited unique luminescence properties in contrast with individual tetra-pod ZnO and $SnO_2$ nanostructures. Polycrystalline $SnO_2$-based samples $Zn_xSn_{1-x}O_2$(x=0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05) were prepared by solid state reaction and eco-friendly hydrothermal techniques. Scanning electron microscopy equipped with electron dispersive x-ray spectra confirms the formation of near stoichiometric $Zn_xSn_{1-x}O_2$ nanorods of diameter ~10 nm. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the rutile structure, except for x=0.07, which may have a small part of $Zn_2SnO_4$ as a secondary phase.

  • Cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) allows us to perform structural analysis of a analyses of large protein complexes, which are difficult to analyze using X-ray crystallography or nuclear magnetic resonance. The most common examples of proteins used are ribosomes and proteasomes. In this paper, we briefly describe the advantage of cryo-TEM and the process of two-dimensional classification by considering a human proteasome as an example.

  • The 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to the following three pioneers: Dr. Joachim Frank, Dr. Jacques Dubochet, and Dr. Richard Henderson. They all contributed to the development of a Cryo-electron microscopy (EM) technique for determining the high-resolution structures of biomolecules in solution, particularly without crystal and with much less amount of biomolecules than X-ray crystallography. In this brief commentary, we address the major advances made by these three Nobel laureates as well as the current status and future prospects of this Cryo-EM technique.

  • We suggest a facile transmission electron microscopy (TEM) specimen preparation method for the direct (polymer-free) transfer of layer-area graphene from Cu substrates to a TEM grid. The standard (polymer-based) method and direct transfer method were by TEM, high-resolution TEM, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The folds and crystalline particles were formed in a graphene specimen by the standard method, while the graphene specimen by the direct method with a new etchant solution exhibited clean and full coverage of the graphene surface, which reduced several wet chemical steps and accompanying mechanical stresses and avoided formation of the oxide metal.

  • This experiment was performed to study the morphological responses of the epidermis of the rat scalp, following X-ray irradiation. Male rats were divided into normal and experimental groups. Rats anesthetized with sodium thiopental, were exposed only on their head areas with a single dose of 3,000rads or 6,000rads, respectively. Radiation was produced by Mitsubishi Linea Accelerator ML-4MV at the speed of 200rads/min. The target distance was 80cm. Animals were sacrificed on six hours, two days and six days following irradiation. By the perfusion fixation through the heart, rats were fixed with 1% glutaraldehyde-1% paraformaldehyde solution. Pieces of the tissue taken from the scalp were refixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde-1.5% paraformaldehyde solution, followed by post-fixation with 1% osmium tetroxide, and embedded within araldite mixture. The sections were cut on a LKB-V ultratome, stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and were observed with JEM 100CX-II electron microscope. The results were as follow; 1. Six hours after exposure to 3,000rads of X-ray. Disrupted intercellular spaces, within which some amorphous materials were filled, disrupted mitochondria, and vacuoles in the keratinocytes were frequently observed, but six days after exposure to 3,000rads of X-ray, Morphology of the keratinocytes was generally restored. 2. Many of the morphological changes were seen on the six days after exposure to 6,000rads of X-ray. 3. Widened intercellular spaces and thickened dense plaques of the desmosomes were frequently observed after exposure to 6,000rads of X-ray. 4. In the experimental groups, the Langerhans and the Merkel cells were damaged, similarly to the keratinocyte. Above results suggest that head irradiation with the dose of 3,000rads temporarily damaged the epidermis of the scalp, though most of the structures recover within six days, whereas with the dose of 6,000rads it severely damaged the epidermis without showing any recovering tendency.

  • The barrier and optical properties of AlO$_{x}$ thin films on polycarbonate deposited by Reactive Ion Beam Sputtering (RIBS) were investigated at different oxygen partial pressure. We measured the deposition rate of AlO$_{x}$ thin films. As the oxygen partial pres-sure increased, the deposition rate increased then decreased. The changes of deposition rate are associated with the properties of deposited films. The properties of deposited AlO$_{x}$ thin films were studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scan-ning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Optimum deposition parameters were found for fabricat-ing aluminum oxide thin films with high optical transparency for visible light and low Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR). The optical transmittance of AlO$_{x}$ thin film deposited on polycarbonate (PC) showed the same value of bare PC.bare PC.

  • Laser plasma was generated by a 1 GW iodine photodissociation laser(λ=1.315${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, E-12.7J) whose output beam was focused on a molybdenum target surface. The experiment was conducted in the vacuum chamber under 10-5Torr and several tens of laser shooting were necessary for sufficient exposure to the PBS resist. A speciman was put directly on the resist and located at a distance of 3cm from the X-ray source. The replicas of a mesh, spider's tread, a red blood cell were obtained by PBS resist and were analyzed by Nomarski and SEM. Two main effects of limitation in resolution, source size and Fresnel diffraction, are mentioned and compared with the experimental result. In this experiment, a resolution better than 1000A could be obtained.
