The effects of Asaddition in amorphous selenium(a-Se) films for digital X-ray conversion material have been studied using the moving photocarrier grating(MPG) technique. This method utilizes the moving interference pattern generated by the superposition of the two frequency shifted laser beams for the illumination of the sample. This moving intensity grating induces a short circuit current, j$_{sc}$ in a-Se:As film. The transport parameters of the sample are extracted from the grating-velocity dependent short circuit current induced in the sample along the modulation direction. The electron and hole mobility, and recombination lifetime of a-Se films with arsenic(As) additions have been obtained. We have found an Increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3% As is added into a-Se film, whereas electron mobility decreases with As addition due to the defect density. The transport properties for As doped a-Se films obtained by using MPG technique have been compared with X-ray sensitivity for a-Se:As device. The fabricated a-Se(0.3% As) device film exhibited the highest X-ray sensitivity out of 5 samples.

This study was conducted to evaluate the spent composts of selenium-enriched mushrooms as a feed selenium Source. Total selenium (Se) contents and Se profiles in the spent mushroom composts (SMC) were determined. In addtion, we also investigated the metabolism in relation to Se accumulation in the mushroom. Mushrooms used in this study were Flammulina velutipes and Se enriched mushrooms were grown for 60 days by adding 2 mg of inorganic Se (Na₂SeO₃) per kg of mushroom composts (MC) on as-fed basis and it was compared with mushrooms not to add Se to the MC. Total Se contents for Se-treated mushrooms were significantly increased (P<0.0001) by 20-fold (4.51 ㎍/g of dry) compared to Se-untreated (0.23 ㎍/g of dry). On the contrary, organic Se proportion was significantly lower (P<0.0001) in the Se-treated mushroom (72.3%) than Se-untreated (100%, not analytically detected of inorganic Se). Se distribution upon a length in the Se-treated mushrooms was the highest in the bottom part (6.86 ㎍/g of dry) near to MC, and top and middle parts were significantly lower (3.71 and 3.01 ㎍/g of dry, respectively) than the bottom (P<0.001). In the SMC from Se-treated mushrooms, a high concentration of Se (5.04 ㎍/g of dry) was still remained, but that from Se-untreated mushrooms was significantly low (P<0.0001) as 0.08 ㎍/g of dry. Se-treated SMC showed a high rate of organic Se (65.67%), suggesting that most of inorganic Se in the SMC was converted to organic Se by mushroom mycelia, and Se-untreated SMC showed 100% of organic Se, not being detected of inorganic Se. Prior to mycelia inoculation in the mushroom culture, the sterilization of MC brought approximately 18% of Se loss in the MC. This result is in accordance with facts generally known that Se is weak in the high temperature and it is consequently volatilized under that condition. Apparent and net accumulation rates (%) for Se into mushrooms were 14.81 and 10.14%, respectively and their difference (4.67%) is considered that it is due to the volatilization into the air via metabolic process of mushroom itself. From the result of this study, inorganic Se addition to MC for mushroom improved the Se content in the mushroom and SMC from Se-enriched mushrooms contained a high concentration of Se. Mycelium and fruiting body from mushrooms converted inorganic Se in MC to organic Se, indicating a high proportion of organic Se in the mushroom and SMC. Therefore, Se in Se-enriched mushroom and SMC was recognized as Se sources of food for human as well as feed for livestock.

The transport phenomena of arsenic (As) doped amorphous selenium(a-Se:As) thin film for digital X-ray conversion material has been reported. The effect of As addition on the carrier mobility and recombination lifetime in a-Se:As sample has been measured using the moving photo-carrier grating (MPG) technique. An Increase in hole mobility and recombination was observed when 0.3% arsenic, was added into a-Se sample, whereas electron mobility decrease with arsenic addition due to the defect density. The fabricated a-Se:03% As device exhibited the highest X-ray sensitivity.

We have successfully grown Cl-doped ZnSe epitaxial layers on GaAs(100) sub-strates by HWE using $ZnCl_2$ as a doping source. The Cl-doped ZnSe layers showed mirrorlike morphology and good crystallinity. It has been found that the layer exhibited an n-type conduction with low resistivity. The carrier concentration is, obtained about $10^{16}\textrm {cm}^{-3}$, where a resistivity reached 10 $\Omega \textrm {cm}$. The layer with an appropriate doping level exhibited blue photoluminescence at room temperature. The strong blue PL was obtained at the hall mobility of $100^2\textrm {cm}$/Vㆍsec.

The preparation of n-type thermoelectric material of Bi₂ Te/sub 2.55/Se/sub 0.45/ doped with CuBr₂ was carried out using a vertical gradient freezing method. With this method, unidirectional solidified Bi₂Te/sub 2.55/Se/sub 0.45/ has been obtained. XRD analysis demonstrated that Bi₂/sub 2.55/Se/sub 0.45/ 5 ingot has grown with prefer orientation of (0 1 5) face. Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity were measured as functions of temperature in the range of 373 K to 523 K on the sample which prepared via VGF method.

This study was conducted to increase the functionality of Korean traditional beverage, Sikhye. The Sikhye were prepared by supplementation up to 20% of Seomaeyaksuk extract (SE) and saccharification for five hours (h). During the saccharification, turbidity of SE-added Sikhye (SES) was the highest at two hours of saccharification and then lowered gradually. L vlaue of SES did not show significant difference feduring saccharification, and both a and b value of Sikhye were increased as saccharification time passed and SE addition ratio was increased. The pH before saccharification was not significantly different by SE addition ratio but it was increased to 5.68-5.73 at 5 h saccharification. Soluble solid, total sugar and reducing sugar contents were enhanced as saccharification time and SE addition ratio were increased. The total phenolic compounds contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity showed a similar trend by saccharification time and SE addition. In sensory test, the evaluations of 5% SES and control were not significant different, but 20% SES group showed significant lower evaluation than other groups because strong color and mugwort flavor. From all of these results, physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity of SES was improved by SE addition but sensory characteristics was lower. Acceptable addition ratio of SE in Sikhye is determined to be within 15%.

A feeding experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of deletion of P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn, or Se from mineral premix in the diets containing $40\%$ fish meal on growth performance of juvenile Korean rockfish. Three replicate groups of the fish initially averaging 5.4 g were fed the experimental diets deleted one ot each mineral (P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn, Se or all) in the mineral premix for 9 weeks. A basal diet with fish meal ($40\%$), meat meal ($9\%$), soybean meal ($5\%$), corngluten meal ($3\%$), and leather meal ($3\%$) as protein sources were included. Weight gain in fish fed diets deleted Ca, Zn, K, or Se was lower than that of control diet ( P<0.05). Daily feed intake, condition factor, hepatosomatic index and liver chemical composition were not affected by dietary mineral premixes (P>0.05). Apparent skeletal deformities were not observed in the diets deleted each mineral, The data obtained in this study indicate that each of the Ca, Zn, K, or Se should be added in the diet contained $40\%$ fish meal for normal growth of Korean rockfish.
