We have studied new hole blocking layer for effective organic light emitting diodes. The device having a structure of ITO/2TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/DPVBi : Rubrene(0.7%)/DPVBi/New Hole Blocking layer or BCP/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al has been used. The driving voltage of OLED with BCP(2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) or New HBL were 5.5V and 4.4V, respectively. As a result, new HBL rather than BCP has a good hole blocking ability.

The aim of this study was to develop a potential process for bioethanol production from Hydrodictyon reticulatum (HR), a filamentous freshwater alga, using Saccharomyces cerevisiae (KCTC7017). From the sugar solutions prepared by the four different hydrolysis methods, bioethanol production ranged from 11.0 g/100 g dried material (acid hydrolysis) to 22.3 g/100 g dried material (enzymatic hydrolysis, EH). Bioethanol was fermented from a highly concentrated sugar solution obtained by a decompression-mediated (vacuum) enrichment method (VE). As the results, ethanol was more efficiently produced from HR when sugar solutions were concentrated by VE following EH (EH/VE). Using multiple feeding of the sugar solution prepared by EH/VE from HR, ethanol reached up to a concentration of 54.3 g/l, corresponding to 24.9 g/100 g dried material, which attained the economic level of product concentration (approximately 5%). The results indicate that by using HR, it is feasible to establish a bioethanol production process, which is effective for using microalgae as the raw material for ethanol production.

In this paper, we introduce a new artificial material model for topology optimization. The present material model, named S-shape material model, accelerates topology optimization process especially in mathematical programming. We overcome the instability and the flatness in heuristic optimization process. Numerical examples show the superiority of the proposed material.

In recent years, developments of light weight vehicle are one of the most important issues in automotive makers. New materials and new processes have been studied on the point of weight saving of chassis worldwide. Associated with materials, applications of high strength steel, aluminium, magnesium are being developed. On the point of new processes, tailored welded blank and hydroforming have been applied. In this paper, focusing to both material and process, we have applied hydroforming process to the engine cradle. In addition to that, three kinds of high strength steel have been applied to the development of light weight material for hydroforming. All the studies have been carried by FEM.

In this paper, the white organic light-emitting diode(OLED)was fabricated using the DPVBi of blue emitting material and a rubrene of orange color of fluorescent dye by vacuum evaporation processes. The device structure of OLED was Glass/ITO/2T-NATA(15nm)/NPB(3nm)/DPVBi(3nm)/DPVBi rubrene[2%](10nm)/DPVBi(25nm)/$Alq_3$ or New-ETL(60nm) /LiF(0.5nm)/ Al(100nm). The device with the $Alq_3$, layer shows orange color, and the luminance of 1000cd/$m^2$ at an applied voltage of 10.4V. On the other hand, the New-En layer results in white color, CIE coordinates of (0.327, 0.323), and the lowered driving voltage of 5V for achieving the same luminance value.

A specimen of Aetobatus flagellum was collected at Uljin in June 2005 for the first time in Korea. This specimen is characterized by the cephalic fin, the long snout, the dorsal fin between pelvic fins, spiracles on the dorsal side of the disc, the deeply notched nasal curtain and the one row of the teeth in the lower and the upper jaws. And unlike Aetobatus narinari, it does not have any spots on the its dorsal side of the disc. We report this specimen as the first record from Korea and name it 'Bak-jui-ga-o-ri' in Korean.

The work presented in this paper includes material characterisation and an investigation of suitability in seismic dampers for two commercially available NiTi-alloys, along with a numerical analysis of a new damper system employing composite NiTi-wires. Numerical simulations of the new damper system are conducted, using Brinson's one-dimensional constitutive model for shape memory alloys, with emphasis on the system's energy dissipation capabilities. The two alloys tested showed some unwanted residual strain at temperatures higher than $A_f$, possibly due to stress concentrations near inclusions in the material. These findings show that the alloys are not ideal, but may be employed in a seismic damper if precautions are made. The numerical investigations indicate that using composite NiTi-wires in a seismic damper enhances the energy dissipation capabilities for a wider working temperature range.

A series of proton conductive composite membranes based on poly(vinyl alcohol) and phosphosilicate gels powders were successfully prepared. The proton conductivity of these composite was attributed to the phosphosilicate gel, which derived from tetraethoxysilane and phosphoric acid by sol-gel process at a molar ratio of P/Si = 1.5. The proton conductivity increased with increasing both the content of phosphosilicate gel and relative humidity. Temperature dependence of conductivity showed a Vogel-Tamman-Fulcher type behavior, indicating that proton was transferred through a liquidlike phase formed in micropores of phosphosilicate gel. The high conductivity of 0.065 S/cm with a membrane containing 60 wt$\%$ of the gel was obtained at $60^{\circ}C$ at $90\%$ relative humidity.

We propose a new concept: that of photonic crystal phosphors (PCPs) for display and phosphor related applications. It is well known that microcavities with dimensions comparable to the emitting wavelength strongly enhance light-matter interactions, resulting in a significant increase in spontaneous emission rate, which can be directly translated into enhancement in phosphor efficiency. In recent simulations we have demonstrated that when a microcavity is formed in a nano-phosphor structure, the luminescence band is modified, and can be made spectrally sharp and tunable by engineering the geometry/material properties of the cavity and the surrounding photonic crystal lattice. New phosphor material structures based on photonic crystals are proposed. Applications to thin film EL phosphors and particle phosphors are discussed. Additionally, economic methods of synthesizing and incorporating PCPs into current display applications are proposed.

Purpose: Lead has been widely used in radiation shielding for its low price and high workability. Recently in several europe countries, use of lead was banned for environmental issues. Also lead can cause health problems like alergies. Alternative materials for lead are highly required. The purpose of this study was to propose lead free radiation shielding material. Methods: Research of radiation shielding in Korea is not easy for certain limits such as radiation materials, experimental facilities and places. The collected data through the research were simulated using MCNPX. The simulation tools used for this study were utilized Monte Carlo method. Results: we suggest new design of lead free radiation shielding material using MCNPX code comparing shielding performance of new composite materials to lead. Conclusion: This newly introduced nano-scale composite of metal and polymer makes new chance for highly lightened radiation protective garments with endurable shielding performance.
