To investigate the alleviative effects of Peonia japonica water extract(PJWE) on inflammation and skin barrier damage, both the irradiation of UVB and the application of squalene monohydroperoxide (Sq-OOH) to the backs of hairless mice were performed for 4 weeks. And at the same time experimental materials were applied topically. The skin erythema indices for the positive control (PC, 0.01% retinoic acid) and experimental (E, PJWE) groups were lower than that of the control (C) group. Whereas both the lipid and water capacities for the PC and E groups were higher than those of the C group. Epidermis and dermis of the C group were remarkably thickened in comparison with the PC and E groups. Relatively much less number of inflammatory cells, including lymphocytes, neutrophils and macrophages were found in dermis of the PC and E groups compared with the C group. Lipid lamellae of the C group were broken severely showing an irregular arrangement and lipid content was much reduced. Whereas those of the PC and E groups were almost intact with a regular arrangement, which were similar to that of the N group. Taken the results all together, it was confirmed that PJWE could be effective natural herbal material for the alleviation of inflammation and skin barrier damage in hairless mice skin which were induced by UVB and Sq-OOH.

Two species of halophilic bacteria were isolated from five salted seafoods and identified by 16S rDNA sequenc­ing homology. One was identified as Halomonas subglaciescola and other four strains were belong to Halomo­nas marina. The identity of all isolates with standard organisms was above $95\%.$ H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, and H. marina SH-2 grew in salinity condition from $3%\;to\;18\%$ NaCl but growth of H. marina SQ and H. marina SH-l grew in salinity environment from $8\%\;to\;17\%.$ Maximum biomass of H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, H. marina SQ, H. marina SH-1, and H. marina SH-2 growing in LB medium containing $15\%$ NaCl were about 3.2, 4.5, 4.5, 5.7, and 4.2, however the maximum biomass in LB medium containing $5\%$ NaCl were about 2.2, 1.1, 0.7, 0.2, and 2.4 as optical density at 660 nm, respectively. In scanning electron micrograph, unknown material (mucus) attached to outer membrane of all isolates was observed. When mucus isolated from halophilic bacterial cell was added to culture of E. coli, E. coli grew in medium containing $15\%$ NaCl.

Graphene, with its unique physical and structural properties, has recently become a proving ground for various physical phenomena, and is a promising candidate for a variety of electronic device and flexible display applications. The physical properties of graphene depend directly on the thickness. These properties lead to the possibility of its application in high-performance transparent conducting films (TCFs). Compared to indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes, which have a typical sheet resistance of ~60 ${\Omega}/sq$ and ~85% transmittance in the visible range, the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) synthesized graphene electrodes have a higher transmittance in the visible to IR region and are more robust under bending. Nevertheless, the lowest sheet resistance of the currently available CVD graphene electrodes is higher than that of ITO. Here, we report an ingenious strategy, irradiation of MeV electron beam (e-beam) at room temperature under ambient condition,for obtaining size-homogeneous gold nanoparticle decorated on graphene. The nano-particlization promoted by MeV e-beam irradiation was investigated by transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy elemental mapping, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. These results clearly revealed that gold nanoparticle with 10~15 nm in mean size were decorated along the surface of the graphene after 1.0 MeV-e-beam irradiation. The fabrication high-performance TCF with optimized doping condition showed a sheet resistance of ~150 ${\Omega}/sq$ at 94% transmittance. A chemical transformation and charge transfer for the metal gold nanoparticle were systematically explored by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. This approach advances the numerous applications of graphene films as transparent conducting electrodes.

This research was conducted to develop a model appropriate for the measurement of information quality of UCC service site. The evaluation factors that reflect more improvement of the information utilization capability were verified. Enhancement of information utilization capability can control greater amount of information among the users and site companies, and among users. Therefore, Wikipedia, for example, provides a Web 2.0 based information quality that is more advanced than Web 1.0 by allowing effective control of information among the users. This type of information quality presents 'information reliability' and 'information stability' as evaluation factors added to the factors such as 'information sufficiency' and 'information usability.' Information reliability and information stability are essential factors that need to conduct an evaluation in the Web 2.0 environment that can distribute greater number of information in the environment where all the users serve as participants. Moreover, 'interesting information' and 'originality of information' suggests that information itself should include the attributes that can attract the attention of users, due to the nature of the Attention Economics, which points out one of the Web 2.0 phenomenon that the number of information consumers is smaller than that of information suppliers.

Stibenequinone(SQ) derivative which was electronic transportation materials in Poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK)-based on organic EL and an optical characteristic of organic EL which is mentioned previously was investigated. The Photoluminescence highest pick with blending TBSQ with PVK was shifted from 439nm to 517nm. This result indicates that an energy gap of a PVK/TBSQ blended sample is less than an energy gap of PVK. According to the electrochemistry characteristic, the ionization energy(Ip) and the electro affinity(Ea) decreased from 5.79eV to 5.63eV and 2.23eV to 2.63eV, respectively.

투명전도성 산화물(TCO,Transparent Conductive Oxide) 물질로 널리 사용되는 ITO 박막은 산화물 반도체를 평판 디스플레이용 투명전극 재료로 개발하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. ITO (Indium tin oxide)는 약 3.5 eV 정도의 넓은 밴드갭을 가진 축퇴반도체로서 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 우수하기 때문에 대표적 투명전도성 박막으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있다.현재 양산화된 ITO의 조성비는 90:10WT%인 타겟을 사용하는대 투명전극은 비저항이 $1{\times}10-3{\Omega}/sq$이하로 면저항이 $103{\Omega}/sq$전기전도성이 우수하고 380에서 780 nm의 가시광선 영역에서의 투과율이 80% 이상이라는 두 가지 성질을 만족시키는 박막이다. 본 실험에서는 SnO2 1~5wt% 인 ITO타겟을 제작하고 RF-Magnetron Sputtering을 사용하여 영구자석을 이용한 고밀도 플라즈마로 높은 점착성과, 균일한 박막 및 대면적 공정이 가능한 RF-magnetron sputtering방법으로 기판인 Slide glass위에 ITO를 증착하여 광학적 특성 및 전기적 특성에 대하여 측정하였다. 전기적, 광학적 특성 등 XRD을 통해 분석하였다. 그리고 증착된 모든 ITO 박막에서 가시광 투과율을 측정하기 위해 UV-Vis spectrophptometer을 이용하여 분석한 결과 90%이상의 높은 투과율이 측정되었다. ITO박막은 Anti-Fogging, Self-Cleaning, Solar cell 및 디스플레이소자 등 다양한 산업에 이용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

TFT (Thin Film Transistor)에서 공정을 단순화 시키고, 가격을 하락시키기 위해서는 Poly-Si을 대체할 물질이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 Chalcogenide Material의 하나인 GeTe 박막을 이용하여 TFT Channel으로 사용 가능한 물질인지 알아보기 위하여 Post-Annealing을 한 뒤, 상 변화에 따른 박막의 저항 변화, Carrier Concentration (cm-3)과 Mobility (cm2V-1s-1)의 변화를 알아보았다. Sputtering을 이용하여 증착한 GeTe 100 nm Thin Film 위에 Sputtering을 이용하여 SiO2 5 nm를 Capping Layer로 증착한 후, Post-Annealing을 200$^{\circ}C$, 300$^{\circ}C$, 400$^{\circ}C$, 500$^{\circ}C$로 온도를 변화 시키며 진행하였고, 이로 인하여 GeTe Thin Film에 외부의 영향을 최소화 하였다. 먼저 GeTe Thin Film의 Sheet Resistance를 측정한 결과는 300$^{\circ}C$ 까지 낮은 Sheet Resistance의 거동을 보이며 반면, 400$^{\circ}C$ 이상이 되면 높은 Sheet Resistance의 거동을 보인다. Hall Measurement를 통해, Carrier Concentration과 Mobility를 알아보았다. Carrier Concentration은 온도가 증가하면 1E+19에서 1E+21 까지 증가하며, Mobility는 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 500$^{\circ}C$ Post-Annealed GeTe Thin Film에서는 Resistivity가 상당히 높아 4 Point Probe (Range : 1 mohm/sq~2 Mohm/sq)로 측정이 불가능하다. XRD로 GeTe Thin Film을 분석한 결과 as-grown, 200$^{\circ}C$, 300$^{\circ}C$에서는 Cubic의 결정 구조를 보이며, Sheet Resistance가 급격히 증가한 400$^{\circ}C$, 500$^{\circ}C$에서는 Rhombohedral의 결정구조를 보인다. GeTe Thin Film은 400$^{\circ}C$ 이상의 Post-Annealing 온도에서 cubic 구조에서 Rhombohedral 구조로 상 변화가 일어난다. 위 결과를 통해, 결정 구조의 변화가 GeTe Thin Film의 저항, Carrier Concentration과 Mobility에 밀접한 영향이 미치는 것을 확인하였다.
