High temperature electrolysis is a promising technology to produce massively hydrogen using renewable and nuclear energy. Solid oxide fuel cell materials are candidates as the components of steam electrolysers. However, the polarization characteristics of the typical electrode materials during the electrolysis have not been intensively investigated. In this study, NiO electrode was deposited on YSZ electrolyte by spin coat process and firing at $1300^{\circ}C$. Pt electrode was applied on the other side of the electrolyte to compare the polarization characteristics with those by NiO during electrolysis. The $H_2$ evolution rate was also monitored by measuring the electromotive force of Lambda probe and calculated by thermodynamic consideration. At low current density, Pt showed lower cathodic polarization and thus higher current efficiency than Ni, but the oxidation of Ni into NiO caused the increase of anodic resistance with increasing current density. High overpotential induced high power consumption to produce hydrogen by electrolysis.

The Hayabusa 2 mission target asteroid (162173) Ryugu is a near-Earth, carbonaceous (C-type) asteroid. Before the arrival, this asteroid is expected to be covered with mm- to cm- sized grains through the thermal infrared observations [1]. These grains are widely understood to be formed by past impacts with other celestial bodies and fractures induced by thermal fatigue [2]. However, the close-up images by the MASCOT lander showed lumpy boulders but no abundant fine grains [3]. Morota et al. suggested that there would be submillimeter particles on the top of these boulders but not resolved by Hayabusa 2's onboard instruments [4]. Hence, we conducted polarimetry of Ryugu to investigate microscopic grain sizes on its surface. Polarimetry is a powerful tool to estimate physical properties such as albedo and grain size. Especially, it is known that the maximum polarization degree (Pmax) and the geometric albedo (pV) show an empirical relationship depending on surface grain sizes [5]. We observed Ryugu from UT 2020 November 30 to December 10 at large phase angles (ranging from 78.5 to 89.7 degrees) to derive Pmax. We modified TRIPOL (Triple Range Imager and POLarimeter, [6]) to attach to the 1.8-m telescope at the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO). With this instrument, we observed the asteroid and determined linear polarization degrees at the Rc-band filter. We obtained sufficient data sets from 7 nights at this observatory to determine the Pmax value, and collaborated with other observatories in Japan (i.e., Hokkaido University, Higashi-Hiroshima, and Nishi-Harima) to acquire linear polarization degrees of the asteroid from total 24 nights observations with large phase angle coverage (From 28 to 104 degrees). The observational results have been published in Kuroda et al. (2021) [7]. We thus found the dominance of submillimeter particles on the surface of Ryugu from the comparison with other meteorite samples from the campaign observation. In this presentation, we report our activity to modify the TRIPOL for the 1.8-m telescope and the polarimetric performance. We also examine the rotational variability of the polarization degree using the TRIPOL data.

Most skin damage caused by ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is owing to the generation of reactive oxygen species. Phytochemicals can act as antioxidants against UVB-induced oxidative stress. This study investigated the protective effects of the flavone galangin against UVB-induced oxidative damage in human keratinocytes. Galangin efficiently scavenged free radicals and reduced UVB-induced damage to cellular macromolecules, such as DNA, lipids, and proteins. Furthermore, galangin rescued cells undergoing apoptosis induced by UVB radiation via recovering mitochondrial polarization and down-regulating apoptotic proteins. These results showed that galangin protects human keratinocytes against UVB radiation-induced cellular damage and apoptosis via its antioxidant effects.

The possibility of the existence of a field-induced micro-macrodomain switching was proposed and examined using 9 mol % PbZrO3-doped 0.6Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PNN-PT) systems having rhombohedral symmetry at room temperature. the thermally depoled (freshly prepard) specimens prepared from the rhombohedral side of the system exhibited a relaxor behavior for the whole range of temperature examined (for T

이 연구에서는 암반의 상태가 유도분극에 의한 전하 충전성(chargeability)과 전기비저항에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 이론 연구에서 지반의 충전성과 이에 영향을 미치는 변수들 사이에 관계식을 유도하고, 변수 민감도 분석으로부터 충전성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 입자 사이의 좁은 간극의 크기($r_1$)이며, 그 다음으로는 간극수의 염도($C_0$)임을 밝혔다. 실내 실험에서는 암반 절리대(파쇄대)를 축소 모사하여, 절리 틈새 크기와 간극수 염도 및 절리대 위치에 따라 충전성과 비저항을 측정하였다. 또한, 서로 다른 충전성을 가진 지층이 복합적으로 구성된 경우도 살펴보았다. 실험 결과, 충전성은 간극수의 염도($C_0$)가 증가하면 감소하였다. 또한, 전하가 흐르는 각각의 경로(current flow lines)에서 나타나는 충전성에 의해 전체 충전성이 결정되었으며, 각 경로에서의 충전성은 암반 파쇄상태가 아닌 경로 상의 좁은 간극($r_1$)에 의해 결정되었다. 따라서 충전성이 상대적으로 큰 암반이 하부에 존재하는 복합지층의 경우, 충전성을 이용해 복합지층 구성 여부에 대한 파악이 가능하였다. 이러한 결과로부터, 전기비저항 변화만으로는 지반 해수침투 또는 지반 복합구성 여부가 지반 파쇄상태에 따른 비저항 변화와 혼동되어 분간이 어려우나, 충전성을 함께 측정하면 이를 명확히 구분하는데 매우 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

유도분극법은 분극된 광물 입자와 공극을 채우는 지하수의 계면에서의 전기화학적 반응 차이를 영상화시키는 기술로서 광물탐사와 수리지질학적 조사에서 유용하다. 진동수영역 유도분극법은 시간영역 유도분극탐사법보다 더 나은 품질의 자료를 얻을 수 있지만 긴 자료취득 시간 때문에 현장 탐사에서 활발하게 적용되지 않았다. 하지만 현재 광물탐사 프로젝트는 과거와 비교하여 심부에 있거나 품위가 낮은 광체로 탐사 대상이 바뀜에 따라 고품질의 탐사법을 사용하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 자동 계측에 의해 단축된 탐사 시간은 진동수영역 유도분극탐사법의 현장 적용 가능성을 높였다. 따라서 이 연구는 광물탐사에서 광체 탐지 적합성을 파악하기 위하여 국내 스카른 광상의 탐사 시추공을 대상으로 진동수영역 유도분극 물리검층을 수행했다. 심도별 서로 다른 두 진동수에서 측정된 임피던스 자료로부터 교류 전기비저항, 백분율 진동수 효과, 금속계수를 계산했다. 자철석과 황철석을 포함하는 구간은 다른 구간과 비교하면 상대적으로 낮은 교류 전기비저항, 높은 백분율 진동수 효과, 큰 금속계수를 보였다. 따라서 진동수영역 유도분극법은 앞으로의 광물탐사에서 유용할 것으로 여겨진다.

The domain formation phenomena of {{{{ { LiLbO}_{ 3} }}}} crystals was investigated and the method for the periodic domain formation in {{{{ { LiLbO}_{ 3} }}}} single crystals during growth was proposed in this study. The strees-induced domain formation mechanism was proposed and explained. The strong piezoelectric effect of{{{{ { LiLbO}_{ 3} }}}} at elevated temperature would be the direct driving force for the inversion of the tensile component of the internal stresses can inverse the original direction of the spontaneous polarization.

To develop the piezoelectric actuator, the structural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties and electric fieldinduced strain of the ceramics(Pb$\_$1-2/Ba$\_$x/)[Mg$\_$1/2/W$\_$1/2/)$\_$0.03/-Ni$\_$1/3/Nb$\_$2/3/)$\_$0.12/-(Zr$\_$0.5/Ti$\_$0.5/)$\_$0.85/]O$_3$(x=0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.1) were investigated with the substitution of Ba. The tetragonality of crystal structure and grain size decreased by the substitution of Ba. Curie temperature decreased due to the decrease of the tetragonality, and dielectric constants increased with the substitution of Ba. The coercive field, remnant polarization and electromechanical coupling factor also decreased, whereas the piezoelectric constatns d$\_$33/ and d$\_$31/ were showed the highest value of 430 and 209(x10$\^$-12/C/N), respectively, because of the increase of dielectric constant. The strain induced by 60Hz AC electric field had the maximum value of 204x10$\^$-6/Δℓ/ℓ at the substitution of Ba 3mol%. As the applied electric field approaches to the coercive field, the piezoelectric element is depolarized and the electric field induced strain revealed non-linearity.
