This study describes a simple and sensitive semi-micro HPLC method with UV detection and direct deproteinization. The plasma protein was precipitated using perchloric acid (60％) and the supernatant was directly injected onto the semi-micro HPLC system. The separation was achieved on a C18 (25 mm ${\times}$ 2.0 mm I.D) analytical column with a mobile phase of sodium acetate buffer (pH 3.5, 50 mmol) - acetonitrile (60:40, V/V). (omitted)

We examine the adjustment of the semiconvergent angle and current for the miniaturized micro column working at low voltage but producing maximized current. Our study shows that the minimum electron beam sizes are 10 ㎚ for the cold field emitter (CFE) and 20 ㎚ for the thermal field emitter (TFE) at a given condition.

GaN는 LED, 태양전지, 그리고 전자소자 등에 쓰이는 물질로, 관련 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 이와 더불어 top-down방식을 활용한 소자제작 방법 또한 발달되고 있다. 하지만, 일반적으로 LED 제작에 사용되는 c-plane GaN의 경우, c축 방향으로 발생하는 분극의 영향을 받게되며, 분극은 LED내 양자우물의 밴드를 기울게 하여 전자와 홀의 재결합률을 감소시켜 낮은 내부양자효율을 야기한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 여러 가지 방법들이 제시되었으며, 그 중에서도 a면, 혹은 m면과 같은 nonpolar면을 사용하는 GaN LED가 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는, top-down방식을 통해 약 $2{\mu}m$ 크기의 diameter를 갖는 micro-sized column LED를 구현하였으며, 식각 후 드러나는 semipolar면을 wet treatment를 통해 제거하여 nonpolar면을 드러나게 하였으며, 이 면에 Ni/Au를 contact하여, 전기적, 광학적 특성을 논하였다.

Magnetic beads (Dynabeads$^{(R)}$) embedded in ~1 micron size polystyrene beads bearing surface carboxylic acid groups were modified with aminobenzyl ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (ABEDTA) to concentrate or separate metal ions using pH gradients on micro and nano scales. The immobilization of ABEDTA was achieved by amide formation. The presence of the metal chelating functional group in the fully deprotonated form was confirmed by FT-IR. The chelation efficiency of beads was tested by determining metal ions in supernatant using GFAAS when pH gradients from 3 to 7. Mixtures of Cu and Mg and of Cd and Mn (at 10 ng/mL of metal) were separated as the difference in formation constant with the functional group of ABEDTA. The separation was repeated twice with relative standard deviation of <18%. A polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microchip column packed with EDTA-coated magnetic beads was optimized to concentrate metal ion for practical applications by eluting a Cu solution of micro scale at pH 3.

Detectable levels of several free D-amino acids were found in some food. This was accomplished by using a column switching method. The determination of total amount of D- and L-amino acids was based on an achiral separation with a $C_{18}$ column. The level of D-amino acids to L-amino acids was determined by the column switching system including the postcolumn reaction detection of the amino acids derivatized with O-phthalaldehyde. The chiral separation of the postcolumn detection system was carried out with chiral crown ether column. This system was applied for the micro-determination of D-amino acids in food such as soy sauce, fermented soy bean and beans. It turned out that the sampling process is critical for the trace analysis of D-amino acids under this achiral / chiral coupled-column system. It was found that commercial soy sauce contained 42ppm, conventional soy sauce 102ppm, fermented soy bean 8.34mg per 1g and bean 2.87mg per 1g sample for phenylalanine. D-phenylalanine was found 0.67% in commercial soy sauce, 0.34% in conventional soy sauce, less than 1.81% in fermented soy bean, and Jess than 2.82% in bean.

In this research, microfabrication technique using localized electrochemical deposition (LECD) with ultra short pulses is presented. Electric field is localized near the tool tip end region by applying a few hundreds of nano second pulses. Pt-Ir tip is used as a counter electrode and copper is deposited on the copper substrate in 0.5 M CuSO$_4$ and 0.5 M H$_2$SO$_4$ electrolyte. The effectiveness of this technique is verified by comparison with LECD using DC voltage. The deposition characteristics such as size, shape, surface, and structural density according to applied voltage and pulse duration are investigated. The proper condition is selected from the results of the experiments. Micro columns less than 10 $\mu$m in diameter are fabricated using this technique. The real 3D micro structures such as micro pattern and micro spring can be fabricated by this method. It is suggested that presented method can be used as an easy and inexpensive method for fabrication of microstructure with complex shape.

A fully packed capillary electrochromatographic (CEC) microchip with an on-column micro-solid phase extraction (SPE) bed for the preconcentration and separation of organic analytes was prepared. A linear microchannel with monodisperse colloidal silica packing was formed on a cyclic olefinic copolymer microchip with two reservoirs on both ends. Silver-cemented silica packing frit structure was formed at the entrance of the microchannel by electroless plating treatment as a base layer. A gold coating was formed on it by reducing $Au^{3+}$ to gold with hydroxylamine. Finally micro-SPE bed was formed by self-assembly adsorption of 1-dodecanethiol on it. Micro-SPE beds were about 100-150 ${\mu}m$ long. Approximately $10^3$ fold sensitivity enhancements for Sulforhodamine B, and Fluorescein in nM concentration levels were possible with 80 s preconcentration. Basic extraction characteristics were studied.

An experiment using a 5 m-long sand column was performed to evaluate the resisting capability against micro-pollutants of the infiltration gallery, multi-purpose filtration pond and riverbank/bed filtration, of which the filtration distance is becoming increasingly shorter in Korea. Results suggested that the Korean riverbed sand contained significant amount of organics, resulting in a relatively vigorous adsorption of chloride ion on the sand surface. Results also indicated that while phenol was not detected in the column filtrate, both 1,4-dioxane and diazinon were exposed to adsorption by the sand as they moved through the column, decreasing their peak concentrations during the movement. It can be expected that the peak concentrations will diminish significantly in the practical scale due to its longer travel distance.

As concrete is most usable material in construction industry it's been required to improve its quality. Nowadays, nanotechnology offers the possibility of great advances in construction. In this study, buckling of horizontal concrete columns reinforced with Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles is analyzed. Due to the presence of ZnO nanoparticles which have piezoelectric properties, the structure is subjected to electric field for intelligent control. The Column is located in foundation with vertical springs and shear modulus constants. Sinusoidal shear deformation beam theory (SSDBT) is applied to model the structure mathematically. Micro-electro-mechanic model is utilized for obtaining the equivalent properties of system. Using the nonlinear stress-strain relation, energy method and Hamilton's principal, the motion equations are derived. The buckling load of the column is calculated by Difference quadrature method (DQM). The aim of this study is presenting a mathematical model to obtain the buckling load of structure as well as investigating the effect of nanotechnology and electric filed on the buckling behavior of structure. The results indicate that the negative external voltage applied to the structure, increases the stiffness and the buckling load of column. In addition, reinforcing the structure by ZnO nanoparticles, the buckling load of column is increased.
