  • Mercurous Bromide ($Hg_2Br_2$) crystals hold promise for many acousto-optic and opto-electronic applications. This material is prepared in closed ampoules by the physical vapor transport (PVT) growth method. We investigate the effects of solutal convection on the crystal growth rate in a horizontal configuration for diffusive-convection conditions and purely diffusion conditions achievable in a low gravity environment. Our results show that the growth rate is decreased by a factor of one-fourth with a ten reduction of gravitational acceleration near y = 2.0 cm. For 0.1 $g_O$ the growth rate pattern exhibits relatively flat which is intimately related to diffusion-dominated processes. The growth rate nonuniformity is regardless of aspect ratio across the interfacial positions from 0 to 1.5. Also, the effect of a factor of the ten reduction in the gravitational acceleration is same to both Ar = 5 and 2. The enlargement in the molecular weight of B from 50 to 500 by a factor 4 causes a decrease in the maximum growth rate by the same factor, indicative of the effect of solutal gradients.

  • We measured the electron transport coefficients(the electron drift velocity, W, and the longitudinal diffusion coefficient, $D_L$) in pure $CF_4$ over the E/N range from 0.04 Td to 250 Td by the double shutter drift tube. And these electron transport coefficients in pure $CF_4$ were calculated over the E/N range from 0.01 to 250 Td at 1 Torr by using the two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation.

  • We employed dual color Fluorescence Cross Correlation Spectroscopy (FCCS) to measure the interaction between PKA regulatory (RII) and catalytic subunits (CAT) in living cells. Elevation of intracellular cAMP with forskolin decreased the cross-correlation amplitude between RFP-fused RII (RII -mRFP) and GFP-fused CAT (CAT-EGFP) by 50%, indicating that cAMP elevation leads to dissociation of RII-CAT complexes. Moreover, diffusion coefficient analysis showed that the diffusion rate of CAT-EGFP was significantly increased, suggesting that the decreased RII-CAT association caused by cAMP generated free CAT subunits. Our study demonstrates that in vivo FCCS measurements and their quantitative analysis permit one not only to directly quantify protein-protein interactions but also to estimate changes in the intracellular cAMP concentration.

  • A high molecular weight polyhydroxyamide (PHA) solution in N, N-dimethyl acetamide (DMAc) was prepared from 3, 3'-dihydroxybenzidine and isophthalic chloride (IPC), which was used for spinning PHA fiber. Before spinning, the diffusion property of DMAc into various coagulants was examined. The fiber was well formed in coagulants such as water/ethanol with a composition of 5/5, ethanol, and ethanol/isopropanol with a composition of 7/3 and 5/5. However, the PHA fiber spun in the water/ethanol mixture contained voids. After the fiber spun in ethanol was annealed at over $350^{\circ}C$, the ultimate stress and initial modulus of the fiber increased from 75.5 MPa and 3.22 GPa to 369 MPa and 29.5 GPa, respectively. These properties of the PHA fiber spun by the dry spinning method were also enhanced, attaining 154 MPa and 5.56 Gpa, respectivel.

  • Experimental mass transfer data, which were obtained for the $CO_2$-water slug flows in vertical tubes with 2, 5, and 8mm diameters, were analyzed in comparison with the penetration theory. It was found that a penetration model with molecular diffusion coefficient cannot predict the experimental data accurately. An effective diffusion coefficient, which considers enhancement effect of interfacial waves, was suggested to improve prediction. Another empirical factor was also suggested to consider the effect of non-uniform interface velocity. A modified penetration model was found to be capable of predicting the experimental data reasonably well.

  • Voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) are reported to be porin-type, ${\beta}$-barrel diffusion pores. They are prominently localized in the outer mitochondrial membrane and are involved in metabolite exchange between the organelle and the cytosol. In this study, we have investigated a family of VDAC isoforms in Arabidopsis thaliana (AtVDAC). We have shown that the heterologous expression of AtVDAC proteins can functionally complement a yeast mutant lacking the endogenous mitochondrial VDAC gene. AtVDACs tagged with GFP were localized to mitochondria in both yeast and plant cells. We also looked at the response of AtVDACs to biotic and abiotic stresses and found that four AtVDAC transcripts were rapidly up-regulated in response to a bacterial pathogen.

  • Coupled carbon-13 relaxation study of 1,1,1-trichloroethane dissolved in DMSO has been performed to gain some crucial insight into the dynamics of methyl group in this compound. For this purpose the relaxation behaviors of several observable magnetization modes for CH3 spin system generated by various perturbing pulse sequences have been carefully investigated and various dipolar spectral densities were estimated by nonlinear numerical fittings of the observed data with the relaxation curves, which were then employed to determine the three principal values for the diffusion tensor for end-over-end molecular rotation as well as internal rotational parameters of methyl group. In this process we could uniquely determine two correlation times $\tau$int(1) and $\tau$int(2) which give valuable information on internal rotor dynamics and thus obtained data were interpreted on the basis of various proposed models for internal rotation. compound undergoes three-fold jumps at 25$^{\circ}$. The fact that the ratio $\tau$int(1) / $\tau$int(2) is close to 1.0 may be interpreted as indicating that methyl group in this C.

  • In this work, the physicochemical properties for permeant molecules and polyion complex membrane prepared by complexation between SA and chitosan were determined by using molecular modeling methods, and the permeation behaviors of water and alcohol molecules through the PIC membrane have been investigated. In the case of penetrant molecule, the experimental results showed that the prepared membrane was excellent pervaporation performance result in most solution, and the selectivity and permeability of the membrane were dependent on the molecular size, the polarity and the hydrophilic surface of permeant organics. However, the separation behavior of methanol aqueous solution exhibited other permeation tendency with other feed solutions and contradictory result. That is, the membrane were preferentially permeable to methanol over water despite water molecule has stronger polarity and small molecular size than methanol molecule. In this study, the results were discussed from the viewpoint of chemical and physical properties between permeant molecules and membrane in the diffusion state.

  • 금속의 취성화는 수소와 접촉하는 구조물을 안정적으로 설계하는데 있어서 큰 문제가 되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 분자동역학 해석을 통해 균열선단 주변에 모인 수소원자들이 전위 이동 현상을 억제하고, 이로 인해 벽개 파괴 현상이 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. 다양한 수소 농도, 하중 속도, 수소 확산 속도 등을 바꾸어가며 분자동역학 해석을 수행하였고, 이에 따른 수소 취성화를 최소화시킬 수 있는 조건들을 조사하였다. 분자동역학 해석 결과는 기존의 실험결과와 잘 일치하였으며 이를 바탕으로 수소 취성화 현상을 정량화하여 평가하였다.

  • 이온성과 비이온성계면활성제의 혼합 미셀 용액의 자기확산계수는 NMR FT-PGSE법으로 측정하였다. 또한 프로톤 NMR 피크의 폭을 관찰하였다. 연구된 계는 $C_{12}EO_5/SDS/D_2O$, $C_{12}EO_5/DTAC/D_2O$$C_{12}EO_8/SDS/D_2O$의 혼합계이다. 모든 시료에서 솔벤트와 계면활성제의 몰비는 일정하고 계면활성제의 혼합비는 다양하게 실험을 하였다. $C_{12}EO_5$ 계에서 계면활성제의 자기확산계수는 이온성계면활성제의 혼합비가 약 25%일 때 최소치를 나타내었다. 비이온성계면활성제가 이온성계면활성제로 치환됨에 따라서 자기확산계수가 감소하는 것은 미셀간의 반발력이 증가하기 때문이다. 이온성계면활성제의 높은 분율에서 자기확산계수가 증가하는 것은 미셀의 크기가 감소하기 때문이다. $C_{12}EO_8$ 계에서 계면활성제의 혼합비의 효과는 분자의 기하학적 구조와 큰 관능기의 면적 때문에 거의 없다. 프로톤 NMR 피크와 자기확산계수는 상호 밀접한 관계를 나타내고 알킬 사슬의 메틸렌 시그날의 넓혀짐 현상은 자기확산계수가 작을 때 나타난다.
