  • Using Bi$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$.$_2$Cu$_3$ $O_{x}$ powders prepared by solid state reaction and spray drying method, the nucleation and growth behaviors of superconducting and second phases were investigated during isothermal heat treatment. When the spray drying power was used in contrast with solid state reaction powder, Bi$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$.$_2$Cu$_3$ $O_{x}$ (2223) phase could be formed at the relatively shot time and second phases were much bigger. Quantitative analysis showed that as the heat treatment time increased, more Bi$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$.$_2$Cu$_3$ $O_{x}$ (2212) changed to 2223 and the major second phase was changed from (Sr,Ca)$_{14}$Cu$_{24}$ $O_{x}$(14:24) to (Sr,Ca)$_2$Cu$_1$ $O_{x}$ (2:l). The superconducting phase formed at the relatively short time 14:24 phase. Following the Bi-free phase of 14:24 Phase, but long time was needed in places far from the 14:24 phase. Following the formation of the 2212 phase near the 14:24 phase, the 2223 phase nucleated preferentially at the interface between the 2212 and 14:24 phases. The preferential nuclcation of 2223 was explained by its structural similarity and low Interfacial energy with both the Bi-free and 2212 Phases.12 Phases.

  • Whole-cell immobilization of the hydrocarbon rich microalgae, Botryococcus braunii and B. protuberans, in alginate beads under air-lift batch cultures resulted in a significant increase in chlorophyll, carotenoid, dry weight, and 1ipid contents at stationary and resting growth phases, as compared to free cells. Photosynthetic activity in both the species, of Botryococcus was enhanced, relative to free cells, at any growth phase of cultures. Immobilization exerted a protective influence on ageing of the cultures as reflected by higher chlorophyll and dry weight contents. Entrapment also stabilized the chlorophyll and carotenoid contents even at stationary and resting phases as compared to free cells in both the species.

  • Monolithic AlN and AlN-W composites were fabricated by pressure-less sintering at 190$0^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen atmosphere and the influences of tungsten phase on the microstructure and mechanical properties were investi-gated. In the fabrication of sintered specimen no additive was used. And monolithic AlN showed substantial grain growth and low relative density. AlN-W composites were fully densified and grain growths of matrix were inhibited. The densification behavior of composites were inferred to be achieved through the liquid phase sintering process such as particle-rearrangement and solutino-reprecipitation. Also the oxid phases which is expected to form liquid phases duringsintering process were detected by XRD analysis. As the tungsten volume content increases fracture strength was decreased and fracture toughness was increased. It was suppo-sed that the strength decrease of composites with tungsten content was due to existence of interface phases. The subcritical crack growth behavior was observed from the stress-strain curve of composites. The effect of the secondary phase and interface phases on toughness in crease were studied through observation of crack propagation path and the influence of residual stress on crack propagation was investigated by X-ray residual stress measurement. In the result of residual stress measurement the compressive stress of matrix in composi-test was increased with tungsten volume content and the compressive stress distribution of matrix must have contributed to the inhibition of crack propagation.

  • With a relatively simple quantitative method, this study comprehensively analyzes the characteristics related to business cycles represented by macroeconomic variables of Korea since 1970. This empirical analysis deals with roughly following three topics: How to identify cyclical component with respect to trend; with what characteristics and how the economic variables of each sector move with in the phases of business cycle, and; whether there are signs of a structural change in the phases of business cycle. Section 2 discusses how to identify trends and cycle components, the basis assumption for the analysis of business cycle. Like the Korean economy, where a relatively high growth rate has been maintained, it is appropriate to determine its economic recession based on the fall in the growth trend, not in the absolute level of real output. And, it is necessary to apply the concept of growth cycle against a traditional concept of business cycle. Accordingly the setting of growth trend is of preliminary importance in identifying cyclical fluctuations. The analysis of Korea's GDP data since 1970, the decomposition of trends and cycles through the Band-pass filter is found to appropriately identify the actual phases of busyness cycle. Section 3 analyzes what particular relationship various economic variables have with output fluctuations during the phases of economic cycle, using the corss-correlation coefficients and prediction contribution. Section 4 monitors the stability of the phases of Korea's business cycle and quantitatively verifies whether there is a structural break, and then reviews the characteristics of variations in each sector. And, stylized facts observed through these studies are summarized in the conclusion. The macroeconomic stability of Korea, in particular, is found to continue to improve since 1970, except for the financial crisis period. Not only that, it is found that its volatility of economic growth rate as well as inflation have been reduced gradually. Meanwhile, until recently since 2000, the volatility in domestic demand has remained stable, while that in exports and imports has been increased slightly. But, in an over all perspective, Korea's business cycle variation is on the decline due to shorter response period to shocks and the formation of complementary relationship among economic sectors.

  • Ceramide has become a widely used ingredient in cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, however, only a few yeast strains were investigated for the synthesis of ceramide and the concentration was very low. Ceramide is not only a core intermediate of sphingolipids but also an important modulator of many cellular events including apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, senescence, differentiation, and stress responses. In this study S.cerevisiae was grown in a batch culture and the cellular content of ceramide was measured at different growth phases. The ceramide content was highest at stationary phase and 2.01 mg ceramide/g cell was obtained.

  • The single crystal specimens were solidified by modified Bridgeman method. The surface recrystallized single crystal specimens were prepared by shot peening followed by heat treatment. The surface recrystallization begins at the dendrite cores on the surface. The recrystallized grains grew into the inner side of the specimen. The growth of recrystallized grains was inhibited by the pores and eutectic phases. The primary $\gamma'$ phases were dissolved at the recrystallized grain boundaries during the grain growth. The grain growth of recrystallized grains was similar to the cellular type transformation. No orientation relationships were found bewteen the recrystallized grains and the parent phase.

  • Large single crystals of olivine were grown by using image furnace(floating zone furnace)under controlled partial pressure of oxygen. The transparent crystals have maximum sizes 65mm in length by 7mm in diameter. When partial pressure of oxygen was decreased, the portion of secondary phases in crystals were increased so that it made crystals dark brown. The secondary phases were proved to be solid solution of Mg, Si, and Fe by electron microprobe analysis. Mg was major portion and the rest was minor.

  • Microstructural evolution and the intermetallic compound (IMC) growth kinetics in an Au stud bump were studied via isothermal aging at 120, 150, and $180^{\circ}C$ for 300hrs. The $AlAu_4$ phase was observed in an Al pad/Au stud interface, and its thickness was kept constant during the aging treatment. AuSn, $AuSn_2,\;and\;AuSn_4$ phases formed at interface between the Au stud and Sn. $AuSn_2,\;AuSn_2/AuSn_4$, and AuSn phases dominantly grew as the aging time increased at $120^{\circ}C,\;150^{\circ}C,\;and\;180^{\circ}C$, respectively, while $(Au,Cu)_6Sn_5/Cu_3Sn$ phases formed at Sn/Cu interface with a negligible growth rate. Kirkendall voids formed at $AlAu_4/Au$, Au/Au-Sn IMC, and $Cu_3Sn/Cu$ interfaces and propagated continuously as the time increased. The apparent activation energy for the overall growth of the Au-Sn IMC was estimated to be 1.04 eV.
