  • Recently, mesoporous metallic materials are becoming more and more important in various applications like catalysts, electrochemical detectors, batteries, and fuel cells because of their high surface area. Among the various methods for manufacturing mesoporous structure, surfactant templating method followed by electroplating has been tried in this study. A mesoporous metallic film was prepared by electrodeposition from electroplating solution mixed with surfactant template. Nonionic type lyotropic liquid crystalline surfactant, Brij56, and nickel acetate based solution were selected as a template material and electroplating solution, respectively. To determine the content of surfactant forming a hexagonal column structure, the phase diagram of electroplating solution and surfactant mixture has been exploited by polarized optical microscopy equipped with heating and cooling stage. Nickel films were electroplated on Cu foil by stepwise potential input method to alleviate the concentration polarization occurred during the electroplating process. TEM and XRD analyses were performed to characterize the size and shape of mesostructures in manufactured nickel films, and electrochemical characterization was also carried out using cyclic voltammetry.

  • Frostbite involves freezing of tissues and usually affects the distal aspects of the extremities or exposed parts of the face. such as the ears, nose, chin, and cheeks. It produces tissue injury by ice crystal formation between the cells, cellular dehydration, and microvascular occulsion. There are four degrees of frostbite. First degree is accompanied by erythema and edema; second degree, by vesiculation, blistering, and eschar formation; third degree, by hemorrhagic blistering and bluish gray discoloration; and fourth degree, by injury to subcutaneous tissue, muscle, tendon, and bone leading to mottled, dry, black, and necrotic changes. We successfully treated 2 patients suffering from frostbite by performing sympathetic ganglion block with pure alcohol. We concluded sympathetic ganglion block is one of the most effective treatments for frostbite.

  • In this paper, a magneto-optic modulator has been designed by using single crystal BSO and polycrystal ZnSe as Faraday cells. And practical core-type optical current sensors using pure iron and permalloy have been prepared and experimented. In order to obtain efficient magnetic field detection, LED(NEC OD08358, 0.87 $\mu$m) was used as optical source, PIN-PD(OD-8454)as optical receiver and multi-mode optical fiber (100/140$\mu$m) as transmission line. The characteristics matrix of the optical element was calculated by Stokes parameter, and optic modulation characteristics equations were derived by Muller matrix. Electromagnetic analysis program (FLUX 2D, micro VAX 3600) by finite element method was used to find the magnetic flux density around the core. The measuring error of the output voltage to input current has been masured below 5% in the range of 50A to 1000A. As the temperature was changed from -20$^{\circ}C$ to 60$^{\circ}C$, the maximum measurement error of the optical output has been found to be 0.5% at 60$^{\circ}C$. These experimental results show good temperature and linearity characteristics. The SNR of the overall system was 47dB in case of 600A (250.2 Oe) conductor current and the system has good noise immunity.

  • The PAS factor, whose gene has been cloned from V vulnifcus, is a protein secretion factor. Although the role of the PAS factor in Vibrio is still unknown, it may be involved with the bacterial protein secretion. The PAS factor is a 76 amino acid polypeptide, and its expression in E. coli cells makes the host cell membrane leaky, resulting in the excretion of periplasmic proteins into the culture medium. Highly expressed PAS factor is harmful to the cell, this may be due to a disruption of the membrane structure or function.

  • A strategy for phase identification of precipitates in high Al-containing austenitic and ferritic steels using electron diffraction (ED) is studied. Comparative studies of the various Al-containing precipitates (k-carbide, $Ni_3Al$, $Fe_3Al$, FeAl) show the similarities of crystal structure and lattice parameter. However, the slight differences of lattice parameter and structure display characteristic ED patterns (EDPs) which can be identified. $L1_2$ k-carbide and $Ni_3Al$ can be differentiated by the length of ${\rightarrow}_g$ (the reciprocal lattice vector), even though they show perfectly identical shapes of EDPs. $DO_3$ $Fe_3Al$ and $B_2$ FeAl show the characteristic EDs in [110] and [112] beam directions due to the differences of Fe site occupancies in unit cells. k-carbide, $Ni_3Al$, and FeAl show also the similar EDs in [112], [112], and [110] beam directions, respectively. All the possible similarities of EDs among each phases and the strategy for phase identification are discussed on the bases of kinematical ED simulation.

  • In this paper, a Optical Voltage Transformer has been designed and fabricated to improve temperature stability caused by materials properties and insulation in measuring system, using single crystal $Bi_{12}SiO_{20}$ as Pockels effect cells for Gas Insulated Switchgear[GIS] System. LD[wavelength: 850nm] was used as optical source, InGaAs as optical detector to measure optical power, Polarizing Beam Splitter as Polarizer and Analyzer, and Multi-mode Optical-fiber[62.5/$125{\mu}m$] as Light transmission line. OPT was assembled in order to pockels effect, and adopted direct electric field type. The linearity of OPT maintains variation for applied voltage range from 100V - 3000V during the test of electric property, As the temperature was changed from $25^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. the result of this study shows that characteristics of OPT are good, and it can be reflected for practical optical sensors in GIS system.

  • Dynamic free-space optical interconnection system is experimented by a holographic crossbar with single-state switching architecture. For dynamic operation, electrically addressed liquid-crystal spatial light modulator and diffraction gratings are used in place of passive holograms of matrix-matrix crossbar. Diffraction gratings are consisted of regular cells which have different phase delays. This pixelated phase grating array displayed on SLM(Spatial Light modulator) deflects an input beam toward a wanted direction or splits an input beam into many beams and then steers them to desired positions. Through the experimental results, free-space optical interconnection is dynamically perfomed using a computer, SLM and phase diffraction gratings.

  • In this paper, maximum output of three different temperature conditions of the photovoltaic modules have been tested and compared to obtain the optimum conditions for the maximum power operation. Temperatures of the cell and module have been set to $20^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{circ}C$ under the constant light intensity of 1kW/$m^2$. 125${\times}$125mm 36 single crystal solar cells having 80 [W] each have been serially connected in the module. From the results, maximum output deviation of 4.67% has been obtained under the ceil temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ and module temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ while minimum deviation of 0.41${\sim}$0.92% has been measured under the same temperatures of cell and module. Therefore it has been found that the temperature of both cell and module should be fixed to $25^{\circ}C$ to obtain stable data unless the temperature coefficient should be compensated for the testing sample.

  • Nanoimprint lithography is a next generation lithography technology, which enables to fabricate nano to micron-scale patterns through simple and low cost process. Nanoimprint lithography has been applied in various industry fields such as light emitting diodes, solar cells and display. Functional patterns, including anti-reflection moth-eye pattern, photonic crystal pattern, fabricated by nanoimprint lithography are used to improve overall efficiency of devices in that fields. For these reasons, in this study, sub-micron-scaled functional patterns were directly fabricated on Si and glass substrates by thermal imprinting process using ZnO nano-particles dispersion resin. Through the thermal imprinting process, arrays of sub-micron-scaled pillar and hole patterns were successfully fabricated on the Si and glass substrates. And then, the topography, components and optical property of the imprinted ZnO nano-particles/resin patterns are characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and UV-vis spectrometer, respectively.
