The domain structures, dielectric properties, and phase transformation of (001)-oriented $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-x%PbTiO_3$ (PMN-x%PT) crystals for x=20, 30, 35, and 40 mole% have been investigated. PMN-20%PT consists of polar nano-domains (PND) which do not self-assemble into macro-domain plates. PMN-30%PT consists of PNDs which begin to self-assemble into colonies along preferred {110} planes. PMN-35PT consists of miniature polar domains on the nm scale. PMN-40%PT consists of {001} oriented lamella domains on the mm scale that have internal nano-scale heterogeneities. The dielectric properties of poled (001) PMN-x%PT single crystals have been measured for orientations both parallel and perpendicular to the [001] poling direction. The results of the temperature dependence of the dielectric constant and mesh scans for the 30%PT sample demonstrate that the initial monoclinic phase changes to single domain tetragonal phase and to cubic phase with increasing temperature.

The equilibrium molecular-dynamic simulations have been performed to estimate the properties of the three kinds of fluids confined between two plates that are separated by 1.086 nm; included in the statical properties are the density distribution and the static structure, and the autocorrelation velocity function in the dynamic property. Three kinds of fluids considered in this study are the Lennard-Jones fluid, water and aqueous sodium-chloride solution. The water molecules are modeled by using the SPC/E model and the ions by the charged Lennard-Jones particle model. To treat the water molecules, we combined the quaternion coordinates with Euler angles. We also proposed a plausible algorithm to assign the initial position and direction of molecules. The influence of polarization of water molecules as well as the presence of ions in the solution on the properties will be addressed in this study. In addition, we performed the non-equilibrium molecular-dynamic simulation to compute the flow velocity for the case with the gravitational force acting on molecules.

We report the growth of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on Invar-42 plates using coal tar pitch (CTP) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The solid phase CTP is used as an inexpensive carbon source since it produces a bunch of hydrocarbon gases such as $CH_4$ and other $C_xH_v$ by thermal decomposition over $450^{\circ}C$. The Invar-42 is a representative Ni-based ferrous alloy and can be used repetitively as a substrate for CNT growth because Ni and Fe are used as very active catalytic elements. We changed mixing ratio of carrier gases, argon and hydrogen, and temperature of growth region. It was found that the optimum gas ratio and temperature for high quality CNT growth are $Ar:H_2=400:400$ sccm and $1000^{\circ}C$, respectively. In addition, the carbon nanoball (CNB) was also obtained by just changing the mixing ratio to $Ar:H_2=100:600$ sccm. Finally, CTP can be employed as a versatile carbon source to produce various carbon-based nanomaterials, such as CNT and CNB.

목적: 본 연구는 지르코니아 도재 표면의 나노구조 알루미나 코팅이 지르코니아와 레진 시멘트와의 전단결합강도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 재료 및 방법: 지르코니아 원판 80개를 표면처리방법(산화알루미늄 분사처리(A), 산화알루미늄 분사 후 Rocatec 처리(R), 연마 후 나노구조 알루미나 코팅(PC), 산화알루미늄 분사 후 나노구조 알루미나 코팅(AC))에 따라 4개의 군으로 나누었다. 알루미나 코팅은 질산 알루미늄을 가수분해시킨 용액에 침적 후 $900^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 하여 시행하였다. 지르코니아 표면 코팅은 주사전자 현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 레진 블럭을 레진 시멘트를 이용하여 각 실험군의 지르코니아 표면에 합착하고 열순환처리 전, 후의 전단결합강도를 측정하였다. 결과: 알루미나 코팅을 한 지르코니아 표면은 균일하고 치밀한 나노구조 알루미나가 관찰되었다. PC, AC 군은 열순환처리 전과 후 모두 A와 R 군에 비해 현저하게 높은 전단결합 강도를 보였다. A, R 군은 열순환처리 후에 급격한 결합강도의 감소를 보였으나, PC와 AC군은 열순환처리에 의해 유의할만한 결합강도의 감소를 보이지 않았다. 결론: 지르코니아 표면에 나노구조 알루미나 코팅처리하는 것은 레진시멘트와의 결합강도를 증가시키는 방법이다.

Hexamethyldisiloxane(HMDSO)+$O_2$를 플라즈마 중합시켜 알루미늄 판과 알루미늄 콘덴서 케이스 표면에 전기 절연박막을 코팅하였다. 코팅된 박막들은 두께가 0.5 ${\mu}m$ 이상이면 박막의 종류에 상관없이 1.0 M$\Omega$ 이상의 저항 값을 보였으며, 박막의 표면 형태 및 접착력은 플라즈마의 공정조건에 따라 달라졌다. 박막의 증착속도 및 접착력은 $O_2$/HMDSO 유량비와 방전전력에 따라 달라졌으며, 유량비가 4이고 방전전력이 60 W일 때 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다. 집착력은 또한 알루미늄을 끓는 물에서 30분간 전처리한 경우에 박막과 알루미늅 표면 사이에 Al-O-Si 결합을 형성하면서 크게 향상되었다. 이렇게 코팅된 박막은 우수한 내약품성과 내열성을 지니고 있었다.

Coxsackievirus Type B3 (CVB3) is an enterovirus that belongs to the Picornaviridae and causes various diseases such as myocarditis and hand-foot-mouth disease. However, an effective antiviral drug is still not developed. In this study, we looked for potential inhibitors of CVB3 replication by examining the survival of CVB3-infected HeLa cells. We detected an antiviral effect by cholic acid and identified it as a candidate inhibitor of CVB3 replication. Cholic acid circulates in the liver and intestines, and it helps the digestion and absorption of lipids in the small intestine. HeLa cells were cultured in 12-well plates and treated with cholic acid (1 and $10{\mu}g/ml$) and $10^6PFU/ml$ of CVB3. After 16 h post-infection, the cells were lysed and subjected to western blot analysis and RT-PCR. The production of the viral capsid protein VP1 was dramatically decreased, and translation initiation factor eIF4G1 cleavage was significantly inhibited by treatment with $10{\mu}g/ml$ cholic acid. Moreover, cholic acid inhibited ERK signaling in CVB3-infected HeLa cells. RT-PCR showed that the amounts of the CVB3 RNA genome and mRNA for the ER stress-related transcription factor ATF4 were significantly reduced. These results showed that cholic acid strongly reduced ER stress and CVB3 proliferation. This compound can be developed as a safe natural therapeutic agent for enterovirus infections.

Purpose: Connective tissue reattachment to periodontally damaged root surfaces is one of the most important goals of periodontal therapy. The aim of this study was to develop a root conditioning agent that can demineralize and detoxify the infected root surface. Methods: Dentin slices obtained from human teeth were treated with a novel root planing agent for 2 minutes and then washed with phosphate-buffered saline. Smear layer removal and type I collagen exposure were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and type I collagen immunostaining, respectively. Cell attachment and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) removal demonstrated the efficiency of the root conditioning agent. Results: SEM revealed that the smear layer was entirely removed and the dentinal tubules were opened by the experimental gel. Type I collagen was exposed on the surfaces of the dentin slices treated by the experimental gel, which were compared with dentin treated with other root planing agents. Dentin slices treated with the experimental gel showed the highest number of attached fibroblasts and flattened cell morphology. The agar diffusion assay demonstrated that the experimental gel also has effective antimicrobial activity. Escherichia coli LPS were effectively removed from well plates by the experimental gel. Conclusions: These results demonstrated that this experimental gel is a useful tool for root conditioning of infected root surfaces and can also be applied for detoxification of ailing implant surface threads.

Shape controlled synthesis of inorganic nanocrystals is one of the important issues in materials chemistry due to their novel shape dependent properties. Although various shapes of nanocrystals have been developed, a systematic account on the shape control of these nanocrystals still remains an important subject in materials chemistry. In this article, we will overview the recent developments in the geometrical shape evolution of semiconductor and metal oxide nanocrystals obtained by nonhydrolytic synthetic methods. Many structurally unprecedented motifs have appeared as zero-dimesional (D) polyhedrons, one-D rods and wires, two-D plates and prisms, and other advanced shapes such as branched rods, stars, and inorganic dendrites. Important parameters which determine the geometrical shapes of nanocrystals are also illustrated. In addition, as a possible application of such nanocrystals for biomedical sciences, we further describe their utilizations for cancer diagnosis through nanocrystal-assisted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

In this paper the hygro-thermo-mechanical vibration and buckling behavior of embedded FG nano-plates are investigated. The Eringen's and Gurtin-Murdoch theories are applied to study the small scale and surface effects on frequencies and critical buckling loads. The effective material properties are modeled using Mori-Tanaka homogenization scheme. On the base of RPT and HSDPT plate theories, the Hamilton's principle is employed to derive governing equations. Using iterative and GDQ methods the governing equations are solved and the influence of different parameters on natural frequencies and critical buckling loads are studied.
