This study was conducted to evaluate the microbial communities in coupled system of a microbial electrolysis cell and an anaerobic digestion. Glucose, butyric acid, propionic acid and acetic acid were used as substrates. The maximum methane production and methane production rate of propionic acid respectively were $327.9{\pm}6.7mL\;CH_4/g\;COD$ and $28.3{\pm}3.1mL\;CH_4/g\;COD{\cdot}d$, which were higher than others. Microbial communities' analyses indicated that acetoclastic methangens were predominant in all systems. But the proportion of hydrogenotrophic methanogens was higher in the system using propionic acid as a substrate when compared to others. In coupled system of a microbial electrolysis cell and anaerobic digestion, the methane production was higher as the distribution of hydrogen, which was generated by substrate degradation, and proportion of hydrogenotrophic methanogens was higher.

In this study, a convenient method for the selective immobilization of single strand DNA (ssDNA) on a polymer surface was described. A positively charged polyelectrolyte, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA), was spin-coated on a tissue culture petridish and the micropatterns of the PDDA were formed by selective ion implantation through a pattern mask. The surface property of the implanted PDDA was investigated by using a surface profiler and FT-IR spectrometer. Cy3-labeled ssDNA was selectively immobilized on the PDDA patterns through ionic interaction and thus, well-defined ssDNA patterns were obtained.

A bath for electrodeposition of platinum nanoparitcles on low-cost graphite substrates was developed to attach nanoparticles directly onto a substrate, and electrochemical characteristics of the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles were investigated. The reaction mechanism was examined by the analysis of polarization behavior. Cyclic voltammetry measurements revealed that the elecrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles was limited by mass transfer. The chronoamperometric study showed an instantaneous nucleation mechanism during the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles on graphite. Because graphite is much cheaper than other carbon-based substrates, the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles on the graphite is expected to have useful applications.

Abstract We have investigated the structure and the conductivity of the CdTe films evaporated on the glass substrates by Electron Beam Evaporator (EBE) technique. The structure is observed to be polycrystalline whose phase is mainly hexagonal phase with some cubic phase. Dark electric conductivity is of the order of $1-^{-8} {\Omega}^{-1} cm^{-1}$ and slightly increased by annealing for an hour at $300^{\circ}C$. Activation energy calculated from the electrical conductivity which varies with increasing temperature is 1.446 eV in the case of room temperature substrates. The values of optical band gap are 1.52 eV in direct transition whereas 1.44 eV in indirect. The photoconductivity of the films is of the order of $1-^{-8} {\Omega}^{-1} cm^{-1}$ and the peak energy is about 600 nm in the room temperature. The photoconductivity starts to increase at 850 nm, which is close to 1.446 eV, the activation energy of CdTe polycrystal films.

In our experiment, a PTFE was sputter-coated on substrates to induce water-repellent properties and the RF-magnetron sputtering method for fabrication of PTFE film is used due to the advantages of the simple process, time saving, environmentally friendly, insulating property, and a good adhesion property to substrates. As a result of the correlation between surface roughness of PTFE films and contact angle with water, we found that the roughness surfaces are proportioned to contact angles related to low interfacial energy.

In this work, thin films of amorphous silicon (a-Si) were formed on plastic substrates by sputtering deposition and crystallized using excimer laser irradiation. As the entire process is conducted at room temperature, and the laser irradiation-induced heating is confined to the thin film, the plastic substrate is not subjected to thermal stresses. The microstructure resulting from the laser irradiation was dependent on the laser irradiation energy density and the composition of the underlying buffer layers. It was found that a layer of AlN deposited as a buffer between the plastic and the a-Si film increased the endurance of the a-Si film under laser irradiation, and resulted in polycrystalline Si grains up to 100nm in diameter.

Single crystalline ZnO films were successfully grown on R-plane sapphire substrates by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Epitaxial relationship between the ZnO film and the R-plane sapphire was determined to be $[-1101]Al_2O_3{\parallel}[0001]ZnO,\;[11-20]Al_2O_2{\parallel}[-1100]ZnO$ based on the in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction analysis and confirmed again by high-resolution X-ray diffraction measurements. Grown (11-20) ZnO films surface showed mound-like morphology along the <0001>ZnO direction and the RMS roughness was about 4 nm for $2{\mu}m{\times}2{\mu}m$ area.

The morphology of Poly(styrene-b-methylmethacrylate) (P(S-b-MMA)) block copolymer thin films deposited on silicon wafers was controlled by treating the substrates with Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAM) of phenylsilanes with different alkyl chain lengths. It was found that the treatment with SAM strongly modified the substrates properties, especillay the surface energy, as compared with bare silicon oxide. By futher adjusting the molecular weight of P(S-b-MMA), a variety of morphologies could be generated, including a perpendicular orientation of lamellea of PS and PMMA, which is required for industrial applications.
