  • An efficient and novel positive charge-doping on the sidewalls of multi-walled carbon nanotubes has been achieved in the presence of tetrahydrofuran as a dopant and Lewis acidic ionic liquids, [bmim]$Sb_nF_{5n+1}$ (n ${\geq}$ 2; bmim = 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium), as an activator, leaving air-stable derivatives having positively charged sidewalls and the counter anions, [MWCNT$^{y+}$][SbF$_6^-$]$_y$ (MWCNT = multi-walled carbon nanotube). The derivatization took place very fast in one-pot and under mild reaction conditions. The ionic structure enabled a tunable dissolution of the derivatives in various solvents through anion exchange.

  • A 1.8V $650{\;}\textrm{mm}^2$ 4Gb DRAM having $0.10{\;}\mu\textrm{m}^2$ cell size has been successfully developed using 0.11 $\mu\textrm{m}$DRAM technology. Considering manufactur-ability, we have focused on developing patterning technology using KrF lithography that makes $0.11{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ DRAM technology possible. Furthermore, we developed novel DRAM technologies, which will have strong influence on the future DRAM integration. These are novel oxide gap-filling, W-bit line with stud contact for borderless metal contact, line-type storage node self-aligned contact (SAC), mechanically stable metal-insulator-silicon (MIS) capacitor and CVD Al process for metal inter-connections. In addition, 80 nm array transistor and sub-80 nm memory cell contact are also developed for high functional yield as well as chip performance. Many issues which large sized chip often faces are solved by novel design approaches such as skew minimizing technique, gain control pre-sensing scheme and bit line calibration scheme.

  • Let T be a local strongly accretive operator from a real uniformly smooth Banach space X into itself. It is proved that Ishikawa iterative schemes with errors converge strongly to a unique solution of the equations T$\_$x/ = f and x + T$\_$x/ = f, respectively, and are almost T$\_$b/-stable. The related results deal with the strong convergence and almost T$\_$b/-stability of Ishikawa iterative schemes with errors for local strongly pseudocontractive operators.

  • The availability of Phaffia rhodozyma as an astaxanthin sources in the aquaculture industry is limited because of the low carotenoid content of natural isolate. In this study, we have used the protoplast fusion technique to construct cell hybrids with an increased content of astaxanthin from P. rhodozyma. Cell hybrids (F307 and F406) obtained were very stable and produced considerably more astaxanthin (> 1 mg/g yeast) than the wild parent. Karyogamy was confirmed by the isolation of recombinants after mitotic segregation of parental auxotrophic genetic markers, the increased amount of chromosomal DNA/cell and the presence of single nucleus/cell.

  • Our works performed for preparation of oligosaccharides from carrageenan, seaweed polysaccharide, and one active strain for carrageenan was isolated from sea water and identified to Pseudomonas alcaligenes. Carrageenan degrading enzyme was purified from the culture fluid of isolated strain-Pseudomonas alcaligenes JCL-43, by DEAE-Cellulose, Sephadex G-100, Q-Sepharose and CM Sepharose CL-6B column chromatography. Two enzyme-F-I, F-II- was identified this purifying process, and the molecular weight of the purified carrageenase were estimated to be 23.6kDa and 30.2kDa, respectively. The optimum pH and temperature for two carrageenase activity were 7.0 and 4$0^{\circ}C$. These enzymes were stable in the pH range of 6.0~7.5 and lower than 5$0^{\circ}C$, and required 1.5% NaCl for optimum activity. And these carragennase were inhibited by metal ions such as Cu2+, Zn2+, Hg2+, but increased by Ba2+ and Ca2+, and showed specificity on -carrageenan.

  • In this paper, a low-profile planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for ultrawideband (UWB) applications is proposed. The antenna consists of a PIFA and a ground plane with a slot. The addition of the slot not only improves the impedance matching of the PIFA but also forms an additional resonance. Therefore, the proposed antenna has a wideband characteristic covering the full UWB frequency range (3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz) and a stable and nearly omnidirectional radiation pattern. The antenna also has a smaller volume and thickness compared to previous UWB PIFAs.

  • Fracture toughness defined near the initiation of stable crack growth is investigated by R-curve and Direct Current electric Potential Determination(DCPD) under mode I plane strain conditions for CT specimen with 25.4mm thickness of SS400 steel. Fracture toughness. $J_{IC}$lit near crack tip of CT specimen by R-curve is 17.14 $kg_{f}/mm$ and however. its value by DCPD is 22.82 $Rg_{f} mm$ The value of fracture toughness by DCPD is larger than that by R-curve. Therefore, it is suggested that the evaluation of fracture toughness by R-curve is optimum than by DCPD, when considering amount of crack growth about each of fracture toughness.

  • Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a small secretory protein and a member of the nerve growth factor (NGF) gene family. We cloned the flounder BDNF gene from a flounder brain cDNA library. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned gene showed an open reading frame (ORF) consisting of 810 bp, corresponding to 269 amino acid residues. The tissue distribution of flounder BDNF was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in brain, embryo, and muscle tissues. To express fBDNF using a eukaryotic expression system, we constructed the vector mpCTV-BDNF containing the fBDNF gene and transformed this vector into Chlorella ellipsoidea. Stable integration of introduced DNA was confirmed by PCR analysis of genomic DNA, and mRNA expression in C. ellipsoidae was confirmed by RT-PCR analysis.

  • A bacterial strain YB-70 which has powerful biocontrol activity against Fusarium solani causing plant root-rot resulting in considerable losses of many economical crops was isolated and selected from over 500 isolates from a ginseng rhizosphere in suppressive soil, and identified as a strain of Bacillus subtilis. In several biochemical and in vitro antibiosis tests on F. solani with culture filterates from B. subtilis YB-70, our data strongly indicated metabolites which mediated inhibition of the fungal growth were presumed to be heat-stable, micromolecular, and ethyl alcohol solutable antifungal substances. Suppression of root-rot by B. subtilis YB-70 was demonstrated in pot trials with eggplant (Solanum melongena L) seedlings. Treatment of the seedling with the bacterial suspension (1.7~1.9$\times$$10^5$ CFU/g) in F. solani-infested soil significantly reduced disease incidences by 68 to 76% after 25 to 30 days. The results supported that B. subtilis YB-70 have excellent potentials as a biocontrol agent.

  • Recently, the power supply equipments have tendency to take multiple feedback loop paths. In this paper the state space averaging technique is applied for the analysis of flyback type current mode control circuit. We made real converter for the gurantee of stable output characteristic and proper design of feedback circuit. The validity of proposed method is verified from test results. The improvement of stability is confirmed by sinusoidal signal injection method with isolated transformer. It is known that phase margin is sufficient and gain crossover frequency $f_c$ is nearly 1/5 of switching frequency $f_s$, from the experimental result with frequency response analyzer.
