In-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) holders that employ a chip-type specimen stage have been widely utilized in recent years. The specimen on the microelectromechanical system (MEMS)-based chip is commonly prepared by focused ion beam (FIB) milling and ex-situ lift-out (EXLO). However, the FIB-milled thin-foil specimens are inevitably contaminated with Ga⁺ ions. When these specimens are heated for real time observation, the Ga⁺ ions influence the reaction or aggregate in the protection layer. An effective method of removing the Ga residue by Ar⁺ ion milling within FIB system was explored in this study. However, the Ga residue remained in the thin-foil specimen that was extracted by EXLO from the trench after the conduct of Ar⁺ ion milling. To address this drawback, the thin-foil specimen was attached to an FIB lift-out grid, subjected to Ar⁺ ion milling, and subsequently transferred to an MEMS-based chip by EXLO. The removal of the Ga residue was confirmed by energy dispersive spectroscopy.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the microstructure and tensile property of in-situ (TiB+TiC) particulate reinforced titanium matrix composites (TMCs) synthesized by the investment casting process. Boron carbide ($1,500{\mu}m$ and $150{\mu}m$) was added to the titanium matrix during vacuum induction melting, which can provide the in-situ reaction of $5Ti+B_4C{\rightarrow}4TiB+TiC$. 0.94, 1.88 and 3.76 wt% of $B_4C$ were added to the melt. The phases identification of the in-situ synthesized TMCs was examined using scanning electron microscopy, an X-ray diffractometer, an electron probe micro-analyzer and transmission electron microscopy. Tensile properties of TMCs were investigated in accordance with the reinforcement size and volume fraction. The improvement of tensile property of titanium matrix composites was caused by load transfer from the titanium matrix to the reinforcement and by grain refinement of titanium matrix and reinforcements.

본 연구는 토양이나 지하수 원위치 화학적 산화법(In-Situ Chemical Oxidation, ISCO)에서 사용할 수 있는 산화제 Persulfate를 상온에서 활용할 수 있도록 RDX를 처리대상물질로 연구하였다. Persulfate로 RDX를 처리한 결과, 반응은 유사1차반응으로 나타났으며 온도가 증가함에 따라 분해속도도 증가하였고, 이 때 활성화에너지(Activation energy)는 $1.14{\times}10^2kJ/mol$으로 산정되었다. Persulfate에 의한 RDX의 분해반응속도는 pH에 비례하여 증가하였으며, pH값이 4, 6, 8일 때 반응속도의 변화가 크지 않았다. 그러나 pH 10에서는 13배 이상 증가하였는데, persulfate에 의한 산화가 아니라 alkaline hydrolysis로 나타났다. Persulfate에 의한 RDX의 분해반응속도는 persulfate/RDX의 몰 비율에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였으며, $70^{\circ}C$에서 측정한 비례상수는 $4{\times}10^{-4}$ ($min^{-1}$/몰 비율)이었다. 용액 내 천연유기물(NOM) 농도가 증가함에 따라 persulfate에 의한 RDX 분해속도 선형 감소하였으며 $70^{\circ}C$, persulfate/RDX 몰비 10/1에서 측정한 비례상수는 $1.21{\times}10^{-4}$ ($min^{-1}{\cdot}L/mg-NOM$)이었다. 반응속도의 감소는 NOM 첨가량에 선형적으로 비례하였다. NOM 20 mg/L을 첨가한 반응의 Ea값은, 무첨가 반응에서 산정된 Ea값과 3.3% 오차에 불과하였는데, 이는 NOM의 첨가가 본래의 산화반응을 변화시키지는 않음을 의미한다.

The redox reaction $M^{(x+n)+}+\frac{n}{2}O^{-2}{\rightleftarrows}M^{x+}+\frac{n}{4}O_2$ of multivalent ions in glass melts influences the melting process and final properties of the glass including the fining (removal of bubbles), infrared absorption and homogenization of melts, reaction between metal electrodes and melts or refractory and melts, and transmission and color of glass. In this review paper, the redox behaviors that occur frequently in the glass production process are introduced and the square wave voltammetry (SWV) is described in detail as an in situ method of examining the redox behavior of multivalent ions in the melt state. Finally, some voltammetry results for LCD glass melts are reviewed from the practical viewpoint of SWV.

Caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) virus is a causative agent of caprine arthritis-encephalitis. In our previous study we reported a prevalence of CAE. In this study, we described the further detailed pathological features of CAE and examined the detection of virus by in situ hybridization (ISH). Histopathologically, interstitial pneumonia and bronchopneumonia in lung, focal inflammation in mammary glands, perivascular cuffing in brain, arthritis, and focal necrosis, mild steatosis, inflammatory cell infiltration of liver were noted. CAEV proviral-DNA was identified by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in blood cells, brain, synovial fluid, and lymph node. Confirmation by nested PCR involved amplification of a 296 bp ($1^{st}$ PCR) and 185 bp ($2^{nd}$ PCR) fragments corresponding to a conserved region on the gag gene of CAEV. Positive ISH signals were detected in the brain and liver. In conclusion, significant histopathological findings included parenchymal infection in various organs, including the lung, liver, brain, joint, and mammary gland were noted in the CAEV infected dairy goat. ISH can help confirm the diagnosis of CAE in formalin-fixed samples.

MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were fabricated by in-situ reaction through mechanical alloying. Also the monolithic MoSi$_2$ as well as TiC were synthesiced by mechanical alloying for comparison. An abrupt increase of vial surface temperature was detected due to a sudden reaction between elemental powders during milling. The reaction time for synthesis of composite powders decreased with increasing the content of (Ti+C) powder. It was found that a significant decrease of Ti grain size was observed with increasing the milling time. And the synthesis reaction of MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were largely dependent on the reaction between Ti and C powders.

Nano-sized $TiB_2$ was in situ synthesized in copper matrix through self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) with high-energy ball milled Ti-B-Cu elemental mixtures as powder precursors. The size of $TiB_2$ particles in the product of SHS reaction decreases with time of preliminary mechanical treatment ranging from 1 in untreated mixture to 0.1 in mixtures milled for 3 min. Subsequent mechanical treatment of the product of SHS reaction allowed the $TiB_2$ particles to be reduced down to 30-50 nm. Microstructural change of $TiB_2$-Cu nanocomposite during spark plasma sintering (SPS) was also investigated. Under simultaneous action of pressure, temperature and electric current, titanium diboride nanoparticles distributed in copper matrix move, agglomerate and form a interpenetrating phase composite with a fine-grained skeleton.

A sequencing batch reactor was operated under different pH conditions to see the influence of pH to microbial community in enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) systems. Long term influences of different steady-state pH conditions on the microbial community composition were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The shift in populations from polyphosphate-accumulating organisms (PAOs) to Alphaproteobacteria was observed when pH was changed from 7.5 to 7.0. Alphaproteobacteria with the typical morphological traits of tetrad-forming organisms (TFOs) eventually became dominant members. The alphaproteobacterial TFOs were the phenotype expected for glycogen-accumulating organisms (GAOs), which accumulate large amount of glycogen into the cell. The results strongly suggested that low operational pH condition encourages the appearance of the GAOs in EBPR process, significantly reducing the EBPR capacity.
