The hairy root was induced form potato tuber disc by infection of a. rhizogenes. The detection of the agropine and mannopine by paper electrophoresis confirmed that induced hairy root was transformed by A. rhizogenes. The activity of peroxidase was the highest at 5 weeks and isozyme pattern of peroxidase revealed 3 cathodic bands and 2 anodic bands and new C4 band(pI 4.6) was observed at 7 weeks after cultivation in hairy root was isoelectric focusing. To study the effect of Ca2+ on cell wall formation in hairy root, channel blocker of Ca2+ was treated. The activity of $\beta$-glucan synthetase II(GS II) related to cell wall synthesis was inhibited by about 50% in diltiazem and flunarizine treatment than that of control, but stimulated in CaCl2 treatment. Therefore these results showed that Ca2+ might be an effective factor in the cell wall formation. The activity of GS II by NaF treatment was increased by about 30%. This result suggested that the activity GS II is changed through phosphorylation process.

To characterize non-adrenergic non-cholinergic(NANC) nerve mediated contractile responses in circular smooth muscle of bovine reticular groove, we investigated NANC relaxation and contraction induced by electric field stimulation to enteric nerves. In the presence of atropine($1{\mu}M$) and guanethidine($50{\mu}M$), electric field stimulation at frequency of 1 to 16Hz(square pulses, 0.5ms duration, 70V) evoked clear-cut relaxations through stimulations. Transient 'rebound contraction' was occured when the stimulus was switched off. All of the responses (relaxation and rebound contraction) were dose-dependently blocked by Nw-nitro-$_{\small{L}}$-arginine methyl ester(L-NAME), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, and methylene blue, and inhibitor of soluble guanylate cyclase. Tetraethyl ammonium(TEA), a potassium channel blocker, did not block the NANC relaxations.

In this paper, we propose the TCM(Trellis coded modulation) decoding scheme that reduces the number of operations in branch metric with STBC(space time block codes) channel information and present the implementation results. The proposed TCM decoding scheme needs only 1 signal point in each TCM subset. Using bias point scheme, It detects the minimum distance symbol. The proposed TCM decoding scheme can reduce the branch metric calculations. In case of 16QAM 8 subset, the reduction ratio is about 50％ and for 64QAM 8 subset, about 80％ reduction can be obtained. The results of logic synthesis for the TCM and STBC decoder with the proposed scheme are 57.6K gate count.

Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, including transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), graphene, boron nitride, and black phosphorus, have opened up new opportunities for the next generation optoelectronics owing to their unique properties such as high absorbance coefficient, high carrier mobility, tunable band gap, strong light-matter interaction, and flexibility. In this review, photodetectors based on 2D nanomaterials are classified with respect to critical element technology (e.g., active channel, contact, interface, and passivation). We discuss key ideas for improving the performance of the 2D photodetectors. In addition, figure-of-merits (responsivity, detectivity, response speed, and wavelength spectrum range) are compared to evaluate the performance of diverse 2D photodetectors. In order to achieve highly reliable 2D photodetectors, in-depth studies on material synthesis, device structure, and integration process are still essential. We hope that this review article is able to render the inspiration for the breakthrough of the 2D photodetector research field.

Nanostructured materials have attracted considerable research interest over the recent decades because of their potential applications in nanoengineering and nanotechnology. On the other hand, the developments in nanotechnology are strongly dependent on the availability of new materials with novel and engineered morphologies. Among the novel nanomaterials reported thus far, composite nanofibers (NFs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years. In particular, metal oxide NFs have great potential for the development of gas sensors. Highly sensitive and selective gas sensors can be developed by using composite NFs owing to their large surface area and abundance of grain boundaries. In composite NFs, gas sensing properties can be enhanced greatly by tailoring the conduction channel and surface properties by compositional modifications using the synergistic effects of different materials and forming heterointerfaces. This review focuses on the gas sensing properties of composite NFs synthesized by an electrospinning (ES) method. The synthesis of the composite NFs by the ES method and the sensing mechanisms involved in different types of composite NFs are presented along with the future perspectives of composite NFs.

Two isostructural new alkaline earth germanium nitrides, $Sr_6Ge_5N_2\;and\;Ba_6Ge_5N_2$, were obtained as single crystals from constituent elements in molten Na. They both crystallize in space group $P_{mmn}$ (No. 59) with a = 4.0007(8), b = 17.954(3), c = 9.089(2) $\AA$, Z = 2, and a = 4.1620(2), b = 18.841(1), c = 9.6116(5) $\AA$, Z = 2, for $Sr_6Ge_5N_2\;and\;Ba_6Ge_5N_2$, respectively. Their crystal structure contains features for both Zintl and nitride phases: zigzag anionic chain of $_{\infty}Ge^{2-}$, and dumbbell-shaped bent anion of ${GeN_2}^{4-}$. Counter cations of Sr or Ba wrap these anionic units in a channel-like arrangement. Unlike in other germanium nitrides, bond lengths of both Ge-N arms of the ${GeN_2}^{4-}$, are same in $Sr_6Ge_5N_2\;and\;Ba_6Ge_5N_2$.

Perylene-based pyrrolopyrone derivative (PPD) was synthesized via condensation reaction with perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride and 1,2-phenylenediarnine as n-type channel material. The structure of PPD was characterized by spectroscopic methods such FT-IR and $^1H$-NMR. PPD exhibited high thermal stability ($T_{d5wt%}: 560^{\circ}C$) and was found to be soluble only in protonic solvents with high acidity such as methane sulfonic acid and trifluoroacetic acid. The PPD solution showed maximum absorption and emission at 601 and 628 nm, respectively. Thin film transistors were fabricated by vacuum deposition and solution casting method. The electron mobilities of the devices were achieved as high as $0.17{\times}10^{-6}cm^2/Vs$ for vacuum deposited device and $0.4{\times}10^{-6}cm^2/Vs$ for spin coated device, respectively.

In this thesis, a policing algorithm is proposed, which is one of the traffic management function in ATM networks. The proposed algorithm minimizes CLR(Cell Loss patio) of high priority cells and solves burstiness problem of the traffic caused by multiplexing and demultiplexing process. The proposed algorithm has been implemented with VHDL and is divided into three parts, which are an input module, an UPC module, and an output module. In implementation of the UPC module\`s memory access, memory address is assigned according to VCI\`s LSB(Lowest Significant Byte) of ATM header for convenience. And the error of VSA operation from counter\`s wrap-around can be recovered by the proposed method. ANAM library 0.25 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and design compiler of Synopsys are used for synthesis of the algorithm and Synopsys VSS tool is used for VHDL simulation of it

The polymer nanocomposite as a gate dielectric film was prepared via sol-gel method. The formation of crosslinked structure among nanofillers and polymer matrix was proved by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Differential thermal analysis (DTA) results showed significant increase in the thermal stability of the nanocomposite with respect to that of pure polymer. The nanocomposite films deposited on the p- and n-type Si substrates formed very smooth surface with rms roughness of 0.045 and 0.058 nm respectively. Deconvoluted $Si_{2s}$ spectra revealed the domination of the Si-OH hydrogen bonds and Si-O-Si covalence bonds in the structure of the nanocomposite film deposited on the p- and n-type Si semiconductor layers respectively. The fabricated n-channel field-effect-transistor (FET) showed the low threshold voltage and leakage currents because of the stronger connection between the nanocomposite and n-type Si substrate. Whereas, dominated hydroxyl groups in the nanocomposite dielectric film deposited on the p-type Si substrate increased trap states in the interface, led to the drop of FET operation.

Purpose: The underdog effect refers to a positive attitude towards the underdog who lacks resources and opportunities but has passion and determination. Extensive research has been investigated how the underdog effect affects distributing consumer preference and purchase intention. The purpose of this study is to identify the theoretical basis on which the underdog effect is grounded by analysing the prior research in the underdog literature. Research design, data and methodology: This study organizes the literature on the underdog effect by analyzing a total of 33 journals published in the past 16 years. Constructs and variables were extracted from the selected articles through the content analysis on a systematic literature review. Results: This literature review reveals that identity theories served as an overarching theoretical lens when examining the underdog effect. Additionally, the underdog effect was rooted in theories of justice and equity to explain the relationship between underdog brand positioning and consumer preference. Conclusions: This paper paves the way for future research based on prior research and trend analysis of underdog brand positioning. This article also provides an insightful interpretation and synthesis of the theoretical underpinnings of the impact of underdog effects on consumers' overall brand evaluations.
