The chalcopyrite $ZnIn_2S_4$ epilayers were grown on the GaAs substrate by using a hot-wall epitaxy (HWE) method. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $ZnIn_2S_4$ have been estimated to be 0.1541 eV and 0.0129 eV, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the $\Gamma_5$ states of the valence band of the $ZnIn_2S_4$/GaAs epilayer. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_{1^-}$, $B_{1^-}$, and $C_1$-exciton peaks for n = 1. Also, we obtained the $A_{\infty^-}$ and B-exciton peaks from the PC spectrum at 293 K.

The effects of adding higher-valence impurities on the bipolar resistive switching characteristics of Pt/$NiO_{1+x}$/TiN MIM stacks and physical properties were investigated. $NiO_{1+x}$ films with 14% W deposited at 20% oxygen partial pressure exhibited the bipolar resistance switching characteristics in Pt/$NiO_{1+x}$/TiN MIM stacks, while $NiO_{1+x}$ films with 8.2% W show unipolar resistance switching behavior. The relationship of W-doping and the crystallinity was studied by X-ray diffraction. The metallic Ni contents and $WO_x$ binding states with W amount was investigated by XPS. Our result showed that the metallic Ni, $WO_x$ binding states, and crystallinity in $NiO_{1+x}$ played an important role on the bipolar resistive switching.

As a method of simple patterning of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films deposited on flexible substrates, laser direct etching was carried out on TCO films sputtered on polycarbonate (PC) substrates. As a result of different binding energies in TCO films, indium tin oxide (ITO) and indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) were more easily etched than zinc oxide with different $Nd:YVO_4$ laser beam conditions.

Chloride-induced corrosion of steel bars in concrete exposed to marine environments has become one of the major causes of deterioration in many important facilities made of reinforced concrete. A study on chloride penetration in concrete has developed through long period exposure test along seawater, assesment of chloride ion diffusion by electrochemical techniques and so on. However, reasonable and exclusive chloride penetration model considering concrete material properties with mixture, degree of hydration, binding capacity has not been established. Therefore, in this paper, chloride penetration analysis of non-steady state is accomplished with material properties of concrete. Comparing with the results of analysis and chloride ponding test, we could accept the effect of binding capacity on chloride penetration in concrete and these results could be applied to a service life prediction of R.C. structures submerged in seawater. Therefore, there are 20~40% differences of service life to SHRP prediction.

The electronic properties of Carbon Nanotube(CNT) are currently the focus of considerable interest. In this paper, the electronic properties of finite length effect in CNT for the carbon nano-scale device is presented. To Calculate the electronic properties of CNT, Empirical potential method (the extended Brenner potential for C-Si-H) for carbon and Tight Binding molecular dynamic (TBMD) simulation are used. As a result of study, we have known that the value of the band gap decreases with increasing the length of the tube. The energy band gap of (6,6) armchair CNT have the ranges between 0.3 eV and 2.5 eV. Also, our results are in agreements with the result of the other computational techniques.

Recently, with concentrated social and engineering interests on durability, diversified subsequent researches have been progressed. The Chloride-induced corrosion, carbonation, freeze-thaw etc, deterioration factors of concrete act to concrete not privately but complexly, Fly ash is most frequently used admixture which is using a reduction method of deterioration. And the fly ash effects on improvement of durability with enhancement of fluidity, decrease of crack with reduction of hydration heat, promotion of long-age strength and have a economic advantage which replaces cement as a binding material. But, fly ash have different qualities and occasionally reduce the durability and strength by adhesion of AE admixture with unburned carbon powder etc. In this study, the experiments will take about various replacement ratio of fly ash concrete, and will analyze, consider the results, after these will verify applicability and validity as admixture and binding material.

In this study, lattice parameter, binding energy and microstructures of TiC layer according to the addition of Fe, Cr were investigated in the reactive deposition coating. From the results, the lattice parameters of the TiC layers by using ferro-titanium as a precursor were 4.329~4.339A but the lattice parameters of the TiC layers formed by ferro-titanium and ferro-chromium decreased to 4.316~4.330A. The hardness of the former's was HV(100g) 3,000~3,400kg/mm and the hardness of the latter's was HV (100g) 3,800~3,900. But, regardless of Cr and Fe, the binding energy of TiC layers were 454.75 eV for $Ti2p_{3/2}$ and were 281.85 eV for Cls. Meanwhile, the TiC layers were densified by addition of Fe, Cr and internal defects were reduced Therefore. it can be concluded that the remarkable hardness increment was obtained by the improvement of microstructures of TiC rather than the increase of bond strength or Peierls stress.

Expressed sequence tags (EST) are help to quickly identify functions of expressed genes and to understand the complexity of gene expression. In order to analyze gene expression of the leaf development in Panax ginseng, which is one of the most important medicinal plant, expressed sequence tags (EST) analysis was carried out. We constructed a cDNA library using the immature leaf of Chunpoong. Partial sequences were obtained from 3,170 clones. The ESTs could be clustered into 1,624 (56.1%) non-redundant groups. Similarity search of the non-redundant ESTs against public non-redundant databases of both protein and DNA indicated that 1,137 groups show similarity to genes of known function. These ESTs clones were divided into sixteen categories depending upon gene function. Most abundant transcripts in immature ginseng leaf were photosynthesis related protein, such as chlorophyll a/b binding protein LHCII type I (128), chlorophyll a/b binding protein (53), ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (41), and photosystem I psaH (26). The EST data from immature leaf generated in this study is useful in dissecting gene expression in leaf organ of ginseng.

This research investigated the process of removing cadmium and tested the detoxification mechanism of the cadmium-binding peptide (Cd-BP) from Rumex crispus. Phytochelatin-like cadmium-binding peptide (PC-Cd-BP) of Rumex crispus was purified and identified. Rumex crispus was exposed to 4.3 mg Cd/L for seven days. Heat-treated supernatant fraction taken by root tissues showed traces of PC-Cd-BP An analysis of the material through Gel-filteration chromatography on the Sephadex G-75 column showed two symmetrical Cd-BP peaks. The major peak with the smaller molecular weight was further purified by $C_{18}$ reverse-phase HPLC to produce apparent homogeneity. The amino acid composition of Cd-BP from Rumex crispus included cysteine (22.6%), glutamate and glutamate acid (20%), and glycine (12%). It was similar the amino acid composition of most PC. The molecular weight of the purified peptide was determined at 568-706 Da by MALDI-TOF MS. Therefore, the Cd-BP of Rumex crispus was PC-Cd-BP consisting of isopeptides.

This study was designed to investigate the stability of a lipase fused with a cellulose­binding domain (CBD) to cellulase. The fusion protein was derived from a gene cluster of a CBD fragment of a cellulase gene in Trichoderma hazianum and a lipase gene in Bacillus stearother­mophilus L1. Due to the CBD, this lipase can be immobilized to a cellulose material. Factors affecting the lipase stability were divided into the reaction-independent factors (RIF), and the re­action-dependent factors (RDF). RIF includes the reaction conditions such as pH and tempera­ture, whereas substrate limitation and product inhibition are examples of RDF. As pH 10 and $50^{\circ}C$ were found to be optimum reaction conditions for oil hydrolysis by this lipase, the stability of the free and the immobilized lipase was studied under these conditions. Avicel (microcrystal­line cellulose) was used as a support for lipase immobilization. The effects of both RIF and RDF on the enzyme activity were less for the immobilized lipase than for the free lipase. Due to the irreversible binding of CBD to Avicel and the high stability of the immobilized lipase, the enzyme activity after five times of use was over $70\%$ of the initial activity.
