The sheet resistance (Rs) of undoped GaN films on AlN/c-plane sapphire substrate was investigated in which the AlN films were grown by R. F. magetron sputtering method. The Rs was strongly dependent on the AlN layer thickness and semi-insulating behavior was observed. To clarify the effect of crystalline property on Rs, the crystal structure of the GaN films has been studied using x-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy. A compressive strain was introduced by the presence of AlN nucleation layer (NL) and was gradually relaxed as increasing AlN NL thickness. This relaxation produced more threading dislocations (TD) of edge-type. Moreover, the surface morphology of the GaN film was changed at thicker AlN layer condition, which was originated by the crossover from planar to island grains of AlN. Thus, rough surface might produce more dislocations. The edge and mixed dislocations propagating from the interface between the GaN film and the AlN buffer layer affected the electric resistance of GaN film.

The flame structure and soot formation in Acetylene-Air nonpremixed jet flame are numerically analyzed. We employed two variable approach to investigate the soot formation and oxidation processes. The present soot reaction mechanism involves nucleation, surface growth, particle coagulation, and oxidation steps. The gas phase chemistry and the soot nucleation, surface growth reactions are coupled by assuming that the nucleation and soot mass growth has the certain relationship with the concentration of pyrene and acetylene. We also employed laminar flamelet model to calculate the thermo-chemical properties and the proper soot source terms from the information of detailed chemical kinetic model. The numerical and physical model used in this study successfully predict the essential features of the combustion processes and soot formation characteristics in the reaction flow field.

$PM_{2.5}$ is one of critical air pollutants due to its high absorbability of heavy metallic fumes, PAH and bacillary micro organisms. Such a fine particulate matter is often formed through various nucleation processes including condensation. This study attempts to find the nucleation behaviors of $PM_{2.5}$ arisen from coal power stations using a classical heterogeneous Fletcher's theory. The numerical simulation by C-language could approximate the nucleation process of $PM_{2.5}$ from water vapor, of which approach revealed the required energy for embryo formation and embryo size and nucleation rate. As a result of the calculation, it was found that wetting agents could affect the particle nucleation in vapor condensation. In particular, critical contact angle relates closely with the vapor saturation. Particle condensation could be reduced by lowering the angles. The wetting agents aid to decrease the contact angle and surface tensions, thereby may contribute to save the formation energy.

산화 및 수소 분위기 열처리를 통한 화학적 표면 개질로 나노다이아몬드 seed 입자의 응집성 완화 및 초미세나노결정질 다이아몬드 (UNCD) 박막 증착을 위한 핵형성 밀도 향상을 확보하였다. 열처리에 의해 나노다이아몬드 seed 입자표면 작용기가 개질되었고, 제타 전위도 증가하였다. 또한, 응집체 평균 크기가 약 $2{\mu}m$에서 ~55 nm로 크게 감소하였다. $600^{\circ}C$, 수소 열처리된 seed 입자로 seeding 한 Si 기판으로부터 열처리하지 않은 seed 입자에 비해 현저하게 향상된 ${\sim}2.7{\times}10^{11}cm^{-2}$의 매우 높은 핵형성 밀도를 확보하였다.

With the fast Q-tensor method, which can model the defect dynamics in a liquid crystal director field, the nucleation and dynamical behavior of defects is modeled. In order to model the defect, hormeotropic aligned liquid crystal cell with step inhomogeneous electrode which has a height of $1\;{\mu}m$ is used. From the simulation, we can observe the nucleation and line of the defect from surface inhomogeneity and the experiment is performed for confirmation. The experimental result is compared with numerical modeling in order to verify the simulation of the defect nucleation.

The effect of forming a passivation layer was investigated in superconformal Cu gap-filling of the nano-scale trench with atomic-layer deposited (ALD)-Ru glue layer. It was discovered that the nucleation and growth of Cu during metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) were affected by hydrogen plasma treatments. Specifically, as the plasma pretreatment time increased, Cu nucleation was suppressed proportionally. XPS and Thermal Desorption Spectroscopy indicated that hydrogen atoms passivate the Ru surface, which leads to suppression of Cu nucleation owing to prevention of adsorption of Cu precursor molecules. For gap-fill property, sub 60-nm ALD Ru trenches without the plasma pretreatment was blocked by overgrown Cu after the Cu deposition. With the plasma pretreatment, superconformal gap filling of the nano-scale trenches was achieved due to the suppression of Cu nucleation near the entrances of the trenches. Even the plasma pretreatment with bottom bias leads to the superconformal gap-filling.

For the enhancement of the nucleation density of the diamond film, we introduced the cyclic process. The cyclic process was carried out by the on/off control of CH$_4$ flow rate for a relatively short time (10 min), compared with the total reaction time (6 h). Prior to depositing the diamond film, we made the pretreated glass substrate via the unidirectional scratch using ∼l $\mu\textrm{m}$ size diamond powders. Diamond films were deposited on the pretreated glass substrate in a microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (MPECVD) system. We observed the enhancement of the nucleation density of the diamond films caused by the cyclic process. Detailed surface morphologies of the substrate were investigated after the cyclic process. Based on these results, we discussed the cause for the enhancement of the nucleation density on the pretreated glass substrate by the cyclic process.

Recombinant Escherichia coli displaying organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) was used to overcome the diffusion barrier limitation of organophosphorus pesticides. A new anchor system derived from the N-terminal domain of ice-nucleation protein from Pseudomonas syringae InaV (InaV-N) was used to display OPH onto the surface. The designed sequence was cloned in the vector pET-28a(+) and then was expressed in E. coli. Tracing of the expression location of the recombinant protein using SDS-PAGE showed the presentation of OPH by InaV-N on the outer membrane, and the ability of recombinant E. coli to utilize diazinon as the sole source of energy, without growth inhibition, indicated its significant activity. The location of OPH was detected by comparing the activity of the outer membrane fraction with the inner membrane and cytoplasm fractions. Studies revealed that recombinant E. coli can degrade 50% of 2 mM chlorpyrifos in 2 min. It can be concluded that InaV-N can be used efficiently to display foreign functional protein, and these results highlight the high potential of an engineered bacterium to be used in bioremediation of pesticide-contaminated sources in the environment.
