Transparent conductive ZnO/Ag/ZnO (ZAZ) multilayer films were deposited by Radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering. The effects of post deposition vacuum annealing temperature on the structural, electrical and optical properties of the ZAZ multilayer films were investigated. The thickness of ZAZ films is kept constant at ZnO 50 nm/Ag 5nm/ZnO 45 nm, while the vacuum annealing temperatures were varied from 200 and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively. As-deposited ZAZ films exhibit a sheet resistance of $6.1{\Omega}/{\Box}$ and optical transmittance of 72.7%. By increasing annealing temperature to $200^{\circ}C$, the resistivity decreased to as low as $5.3{\Omega}/{\Box}$ and optical transmittance also increased to as high as 82.1%. Post-deposition annealing of ZAZ multilayer films lead to considerably lower electrical resistivity and higher optical transparency, simultaneously by increased crystallization of the films.

Objectives : The conventional direct and indirect moxibustion therapies for prostate treatment could not been applied to the acupuncture point of $CV_1$(Conception Vessel Meridian 1, 會陰) because of its boring body region. The position of $CV_1$(會陰) is the back side of hard part between the anus and the genital organ. The conventional moxibustion methods have many troubles in operating to the acupuncture point of $CV_1$(會陰). In order to get rid of these problems, we have suggested the special heat generating terminal especially for prostate. The features of the special heat generating terminal for prostate are the low temperature infrared heater and the adhesive moxa-pad. These features are no burnt, no fiery and especially suitable for the point of $CV_1$(會陰). Methods: The heat generating terminal which is a part of the moxa-extract moxibustion cauterizer is composed of a PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficients) ceramic heater and the adhesive moxa-pad We had got the experimental demonstrations by the stimulating the acupuncture points which are $CV_1$(會陰), $BL_{28}$(Bladder Meridian 28, 膀胱兪), and $CV_3$(Conception Vessel Meridian 3, 中極) with the special heat generating terminal for the prostatitis and the benign prosthetic hypertrophy. And the stimulation level was 43$^{\circ}C$ infrared heat for one hour. The type of thermography is IRIS-5000. Results : With one subject suffering the prostatitis and another subject suffering the benign prosthetic hypertrophy, we cauterized the acupuncture points $CV_1$(會陰), $BL_{28}$(膀胱兪) and $CV_3$(中極) with the special heat generating terminal for prostate. We measured the temperature variations by the thermography before and after stimulations. Finally we estimated the tendency of temperature decreasing in the region of post-stroke urinary symptoms and the improvement of nocturnal enuresis after the stimulations. Conclusions : We suggest that the special heat generating terminal of moxa-extract moxibustion cauterizer proposed herein is effective for the treatment of prostate by NIH-CPSI and IPSS.

Direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) is considered as a candidate for portable power sources, that could overcome the disadvantages of lithium battery. But in order to attain commercial viability the long term stability of the DMFC should be achieved. Understanding the long-term behavior of membrane-electrode assembly (MEA) is a prerequisite to this purpose and the optimization of the MEA is also needed. In this study we have investigated the changes in performance and electrochemical properties of the MEA during extended operation and the effects of heat treatment of MEA on the long-term performance. The MEAs have been treated in an autoclave with saturated water vapor at 120$^{\circ}C$, vacuum oven at 140$^{\circ}C$ and boiling in organic solvents. The autoclaved MEA was found to be have the best long term performance. The on-off operation mode also increased the performance probably due to effective removal of products from the electrodes. Physical and electrochemical analyses using a scanning electron microscope, impedance analyser and half-cell technique have been done to characterize the MEAs.

Direct bonded SOI wafer pairs with $Si ll SiO_2/Si_3N_4 ll Si$ the heterogeneous insulating layers of SiO$_2$-Si$_3$N$_4$are able to apply to the micropumps and MEMS applications. Direct bonding should be executed at low temperature to avoid the warpage of the wafer pairs and inter-diffusion of materials at the interface. 10 cm diameter 2000 ${\AA}-SiO_2/Si(100}$ and 560 $\AA$- ${\AA}-Si_3N_4/Si(100}$ wafers were prepared, and wet cleaned to activate the surface as hydrophilic and hydrophobic states, respectively. Cleaned wafers were pre- mated with facing the mirror planes by a specially designed aligner in class-100 clean room immediately. We employed a heat treatment equipment so called fast linear annealing(FLA) with a halogen lamp to enhance the bonding of pre mated wafers We kept the scan velocity of 0.08 mm/sec, which implied bonding process time of 125 sec/wafer pairs, by varying the heat input at the range of 320~550 W. We measured the bonding area by using the infrared camera and the bonding strength by the razor blade clack opening method, respective1y. It was confirmed that the bonding area was between 80% and to 95% as FLA heat input increased. The bonding strength became the equal of $1000^{\circ}C$ heat treated $Si ll SiO_2/Si_3N_4 ll Si$ pair by an electric furnace. Bonding strength increased to 2500 mJ/$\textrm{m}^2$as heat input increased, which is identical value of annealing at $1000^{\circ}C$-2 hr with an electric furnace. Our results implies that we obtained the enough bonding strength using the FLA, in less process time of 125 seconds and at lowed annealing temperature of $400^{\circ}C$, comparing with the conventional electric furnace annealing.

Experiments have been performed for the burners used in the non-oxidizing direct fired furnaces for the cold rolled plate to investigate the effect of fuel/air mixing patterns of the burner nozzle on flame shape, temperature and combustion gas concentration. CFD simulation has also been performed to investigate the mixing state of air-fuel for a nozzle mixing burner and a partially pre-mixing burner. A partially pre-mixing burner showed that flame temperature increased up to $26^{\circ}C$ on average compared than that of the nozzle mixing. It also showed that the mixing distance is important at the partially pre-mixing burner. Test results for a partially pre-mixing burner showed that the residual oxygen concentration and the volume ratio of $CO/CO_2$ of the flame were applicable to be used in field furnaces.

The Hydroxyapatite powders were prepared by Wet-direct and Hydrothermal synthesis using Ca(NO3)2.4H2O and (NH4)2.HPO4.Stoichiometric and good cristalline HAp powders were obtained 9$0^{\circ}C$ by wet-direct process. The aspect ratio of HAp powders prepared by hydrothermal synthesis was increased with increasing synthetic temperature. The HAp particles obtained at 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 10hr were needle shaped ultra fine crystals, about 100nm in size. Small amount of TCP was obtained above 80$0^{\circ}C$ after heat-treatment of hydrothermally synthesized HAp but good crystalline HAp phase was maintained up to 120$0^{\circ}C$ as the primary phase.

Alloy 718 is normally used for the stationary and rotating parts of gas turbines due to its excellent combination of high temperature mechanical properties, formability and weldability. The mechanical properties of the Alloy 718 depend very much on grain size, as well as the strengthening phases, ${\gamma}'\;and\;{\gamma}'$. Direct aging is normally used to enhance tensile strengths at high temperatures. The grain structure of the superalloy components is mainly controlled during thermo-mechanical process by the dynamic, meta-dynamic recrystallization and grain growth. In this study, the influence of grain structure and heat treatment on tensile properties of direct-aged Alloy 718 was evaluated.

The aim of this study is to investigate the process conditions on the microstructual changes and mechanical properties of large 7175 aluminum ring roll forgings. The billets range from 370 mm to 720 mm in diameter were homogenized and ring roll forged after direct chill casting. The tensile properties of ring roll forged specimen manufactured with ${\Phi}370mm$ billets were superior to those of ${\Phi}720mm$ billets under $T_6$ condition. Also, these properties showed better than those of military specification under $T_{74}$ treatment. The impact value of ring roll forged specimen under $T_{74}$ treatment increased up to 20% than that of $T_6$ condition. The fracture toughness of ring roll forged specimen manufactured with ${\Phi}370mm$ cast billet showed nearly same level of ${\Phi}720mm$ billet which was processed using MF or Cog free forging followed by ring roll forging.

PVDF(polyvinylidene fluoride) 섬유는 습식방사방법을 적용하여 제조하였다. PVDF 분자 내 압전 특성과 밀접한 관련을 갖는 ${\beta}$형태의 결정 함량을 높이기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 습식방사 된 섬유에 1단계 연신, 2단계 어닐링 공정으로 구성하여 후 처리를 도입하였다. 후 처리는 PVDF 고분자의 유리전이 온도($T_g$)와 용융온도($T_m$) 사이의 온도범위에서 진행하여, 최대의 ${\beta}$형태 결정을 생성 할 수 있는 열처리 조건을 최적화 하였다. 제조된 PVDF 섬유 내 분자 배향 특성과 결정 구조를 확인하기 위하여 적외선 분광 광도계(FT-IR)와 X선 회절 분석기(XRD)를 이용하여 분석하였으며, 전자현미경(SEM)을 통하여 섬유의 표면을 관찰하여 섬유의 평균직경을 확인하였다. 분석 결과, 후 처리 공정이 PVDF 결정 구조의 영향을 미치며, ${\beta}$형태의 결정 비율을 증가시킨다는 것을 확인하였다. 더불어 ${\beta}$형태 결정 향상으로 인해 기계적 강도가 증가되었으며, 압전 특성 향상까지 기대할 수 있었다.

Dental plaque, a biofilm consisting of more than 500 different bacterial species, is an etiological agent of human periodontal disease, It is therefore important to characterize interactions among periodontopathic microorganisms in order to understand the microbial pathogenesis of periodontal disease. Previous data have suggested a synergistic effect of tow major periodontal pathogens Porphyromonas gingivalis and Tannerella forsythia in the periodontal lesion. In the present study, to better understand interaction between P. gingivalis and T. forsythia, the coaggregation activity between these bacteria was characterized. The coaggregation activity was observed by a direct visual assay by mixing equal amount (1 ${\times}$ $10^9$)of T. forsythia and P. gingivaJis cells. It was found that the first aggregates began to appear after 5-10 min, and that the large aggregates completely settled within 1 h. Electron and epifluorescence microscopic studies confirmed cell-cell contact between two bacteria. The heat treatment of P. gingivalis completely blocked the activity, suggesting an involvement of a heat-labile component of P. gingivalis in the interaction. On the other hand, heat treatment of T. forsythia significantly increased the coaggregation activity; the aggregates began to appear immediately. The coaggregation activity was inhibited by addition of protease, however carbohydrates did not inhibit the activity, suggesting that coaggregation is a protein-protein interaction. The results of this study suggest that coaggregation between P. gingivalis and T. forsythia is a result of cell-cell physical contact, and that coaggregation is mediated by a heat-labile component of P. gingivalis and T. forsythia component that can be activated on heat treatment.
