  • We investigated response characteristics of liquid crystal display(LCD) with different operating mode of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) such as $45^{\circ}$twist nematic (TN), $67.3^{\circ}$TN and ECB(electrical controlled birefringence) on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface. The three kinds of LCD operating mode obtain stable EO performance. Low transmittances of the $45^{\circ}$TN and $67.3^{\circ}$TN cell on the rubbed PI surface were achieved by using low cell gap d. The fast response time of ECB cell among the three kinds of LCD operating mode was measured.

  • Recently, the important issues of solar cell are low cost and high efficiency. Making low cost and high efficiency solar cell, there are many effects to development of inexpensive wafer, simplify process and improve optical, electrical properties. In this the study, the 2 step texturing method using micro blaster was developed to decrease reflection of incident lights. Air bridge electrode structure is suggested to expand the effective surface area and decrease the series resistance of finger electrode. The effects of 1 step texturing and 2 step texturing by micro blaster are compared. Reflectance of 1 step and 2 step texturing are measured 28.7% and 25.5%, respectively. The reflectance of 2 step texturing sample is lower about 3.2% than 1 step textured sample.

  • A novel cell surface display system was developed by employing the Escherichia coli outer membrane protein C (OmpC) as an anchoring motif. Poly-histidine (poly-His) peptides of 19, 32, 45, 84, and 162 amino acids (aa) could be successfully displayed by inserting them into the seventh exposed loop(L7) of OmpC. Recombinant cells displaying poly-His of 19, 32, 45, and 84 aa could absorb 18.9, 23.9, 26.1, and 32.0 ${\mu}mol$ of $Cd^{2+}$ per gram cell dry weight, respectively and therefore, would be useful as the biosorbents of heavy metals.

  • For high efficiency of Si-cells, Si wafers were textured by the KOH and NaOH etching solution to decreas the reflectance at surfaces of the cells. The textured surfaces were shown various types such as isotropic and anisotropic depending on the etching solution. The reflectance at sample of an anisotropic form with pyramid type was lower than that of isotropic form. The surface with isotropic form of general tiny circles on the surface increased the efficiency, however, the reflectance of it was increased. The efficiency was increased on surface with low roughness.

  • Electro-wetting display (EWD) that displays information by controling movement of fluid is one of the strong candidates for electronic paper display (EPD). In EWD cell. the movement of oil which locates between hydrophobic insulation layer and deionized water is rather random, which makes it difficult to realize gray scale, fast response time, and good color characteristics. In this paper, we investigated how to control the oil movement in specific one direction by surface treatment and pattered electrodes. From these experiments, we could control oil movement in a desired direction.

  • A whole-cell biocatalyst was constructed by immobilizing an enzyme on the surface of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The gene encoding Bacillus macerans cyclodextrin glucanotransferase(CGTase) was fused with the AGA2 gene encoding a small peptide disulfide-linked to the aga1, a cell wall protein of a-agglutinin. The plasmid was introduced S. cerevisiae and expressed in the medium consisting of 10g/L yeast extract, 20g/L peptone, and 20g/L galactose. The activity was detected with the formation of cyclodextrin(CD) from 10g/L soluble starch. Surface display of CGTase was also verified with the halo-test, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence microscopy. The recombinant S. cerevisiae produced ${\alpha}-cyclodextrin$ more efficiently than the free CGTase by simultaneous fermentation and cyclization as yeast consumes glucose and maltose which are inhibitors for CD synthesis.

  • A driving mechanism and excellent features for an in-plane switching twisted nematic liquid crystal mode (IT mode) that could possibly improve the viewing-angle and color shift characteristics and the cell gap error tolerance is proposed. .It is important that the surface azimuthal anchoring strength of the liquid crystal cell differs at the upper and lower substrates. Furthermore. as a rubbing-free LCD. amorphously aligned in-plane switching twisted nematic mode (a-IT mode) is also demonstrated.

  • The endoinulinase gene (inu1) from Pseudomonas mucidolens was expressed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by fusing with Aga2p linked to the membrane anchored protein, Aga1p. The inu1 gene of P. mucidolens was subcloned into the surface display vector, pCTcon (GAL1 promoter). The constructed plasmid, pCTENIU (8.5kb), was then introduced to S. cerevisiae EBY100 cells and the yeast transformants selected on synthetic defined media lacking uracil and inulin-containing media. The inu1 gene under the control of the GAL1 promoter was successfully expressed in the yeast transformants, and the surface display of endoinulinase confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy, along with its enzymatic ability to form inulooligosaccharides (IOSs) from inulin. The total endoinulinase activity reached about 2.31 units/ml when the yeast transform ants were cultivated on a YPDG medium. To efficiently hydrolyze the inulin, various reaction conditions were examined, including the pH, temperature, and inulin source. The optimized conditions were then determined as follows: pH, 7.0; temperature, $50^{\circ}C$; inulin source, Jerusalem artichoke. Under the optimized condition and 46 units of endoinulinase per g of inulin, IOSs started to be produced after 10 min of enzymatic reaction. The highest yield, 71.2% of IOSs, was achieved after 30 h of reaction without any significant loss of the initial enzyme activity. As a result of the reaction with inulin, IOSs consisting of inulobiose (F2), inulotriose (F3), inulotetraose (F4), and inulopentaose (F5) were produced, and F4 was the major product.

  • Surface driven switching of the liquid crystal bulk arising from the coupling between an applied electric field and a polarized state of a nematic liquid crystal, both localized at the substrate surface, is reported. Fast switching is demonstrated in a hybrid aligned nematic cell with a fringe electric field generated by comb-like electrode structure.
