  • In order to make a functional jam containing garlic, sugar, acid and pectin were mixed with garlic and concentrated by heating the mixture under atmosphere or vacuum conditions. And changes of some physico-chemical properties of the garlic jam(i.e., color, textural properties, vitamin C) were investigated during storage at $30^{\circ}C$. It was found that lightness(L) was higher in sample of vacuum concentration than that in atmosphere concentration and redness(a) and yellowness(b) were higher in sample of atmosphere concentration. During the storage lightness was found to decrease for all samples with more drastic decrease in sample of atmosphere concentration where browning was more severely observed after 8 weeks of storage. In terms of textural properties, hardness, chewiness and gumminess were higher in sample of atmosphere concentration than that in vacuum concentration. And springiness and cohesiveness were higher in sample of vacuum concentration. Although sensory score for garlic jam found to be lower than that for the existing strawberry jam, the present garlic jam might have high marketability if considering its physiological value.

  • The performance of PVA(polyvinyl alchol) is better than another organic dielectric material. Therefore, PVA has been researched for organic and in-organic dielectric material. But research of changing PVA's dielectric constant and leakage current by increasing temperature and concentration was insigificant. We try to find pure PVA and cross-linked PVA's characteristic of dielectric by changing temperature and concentration. 5/10/15wt% PVA concentration (5% interval) was in progress, PVA at $100/150/200/250^{\circ}C$ ($50^{\circ}C$ interval) of experiments was conducted in relation to temperature. The higher the concentration, leakage currents decrease, and dielectric constant is increased. With regard to temperature, we could not see a big change of leakage current and dielectric constant of pure PVA until $200^{\circ}C$. However, we could see a tendency to increase significantly at $250^{\circ}C$. Also, leakage current and dielectric constant of cross-linked PVA gradually increased from at $100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$ and then sharply increased from at $250^{\circ}C$. We tried to find that PVA's inner bonds(hydroxyl group (OH-) lead to the results.

  • Physicochemical properties were compared between freeze concentrated and vacuum evaporated milk through colour, brix, viscosity, freezing point and pH measurement. Brix and viscosity in each concentrated milk significantly increased due to solute concentration(p<0.05), and there was not much difference between freeze concentrated and evaporative one. Brix results were numerically modeled with the logarithmic regression: Y=-33.460+18.4513 ${\cdot}$ ln(X), $R^2=0.9798$ and this model was fairly fit to predict the solute concentration in the middle of freeze concentration process. Freezing point significantly decreased according to concentration increment(p<0.05) and there was not the significant difference between freeze concentrated and evaporated one. Whereas, in colour and pH value, there were some differences between freeze concentrated and evaporative milk. Vacuum evaporated milk expressed higher discoloration comparing to freeze concentrated one. In pH values, evaporated milk showed the significantly decreased results comparing to freeze concentrated sample, whereas the pH value of freeze concentrated sample expressed the similar value to the reference milk.

  • The variation of the microstructures and the mechanical properties with varying vacuum hot pressing temperature and pressure was investigated in PyM processed 20 vol%) SiCw/ 2124Al composites. As increasing the vacuum hot pressing temperature, the aspect ratio of whiskers and density of composites increased due to the softening of 2124Al matrix with the increased amount of liquid phase. The tensile strength of composite increased with increasing vacuum hot pressing temperature up to $570^{\circ}C$ and became saturated above $570^{\circ}C$, To attain the high densification of composites above 99%, the vacuum hot pressing pressure was needed to be above 70 MPa. However, the higher vacuum hot pressing pressure above 70 MPa was not effective to increase the tensile strength due to the reduced aspect ratio of SiC whiskers from damage of whiskers during vacuum hot pressing. A phenomenological equation to predict the tensile strength of $SiC_w$/2124AI composite was proposed as a function including two microstructural parameters, i.e. density of composites and aspect ratio of whiskers. The tensile strength of $SiC_w$/2124AI were found more sensitive to the porosity than other P/M materials due to the higher stress concentration and reduced load transfer efficiency by the pores locating at whisker/matrix interfaces.

  • Mud, iron oxide, plaster, salt, minerals, and dissolved metals are sequentially deposited in accordance with the increasing concentration of seawater. In this paper, by using the physical characteristics of the seawater, we propose a new vacuum heat-transfer technology to subsequently obtain the proportion of the dissolved components in a cost-effective manner. Based on the vacuum heat-transfer characteristics of seawater, we comprehensively divide the seawater resource processes into the following four processes: (1) the salt concentration process to the saturation concentration, (2) crystallization process for salt formation, (3) mineral precipitation, and (4) remaining of dissolved metals.

  • To investigate the effects of submersion aging in chilled water on tenderness and microbial growth of vacuum-packed beef, the semimembranosus muscles of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) was sampled at a commercial meat plant at 24 hrs postmortem. The samples were cut to 2.5 cm thick steaks and randomly assigned to following two treatments. The samples were stored in conventional refrigerator at 4$^{\circ}C$ after vacuum packaging for control whereas the other vacuum-packed samples were submersed in chilled water at 1$^{\circ}C$ for treatment, and both samples were stored for 14 days to measure total plate counts (TPC), sarcomere length, free calcium concentration, shear farce value and myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI). The sarcomere length of treatment was significantly (p<0.05) longer than that of control at 3 days aging. Result suggested that submersion in chilled water of vacuum-packed beef might be effective to improve tenderness of meat compared to storage in conventional refrigerator. There were no significant differences in the shear force and MFI between control and treatment during storage. However, the free calcium concentration of samples from treatment was significantly (p<0.05) higher than that of control at 7 days of ageing. This result indicated that the lower shear force value and the longer sarcomere length of samples from treatment might be due to increasing the free calcium ion concentration in sarcoplasm during storage. On the other hands, samples from control showed significantly (p<0.05) higher number of microbial (TPC) compared to treatment during storage. from results obtained, submersion in chilled water of vacuum-packed beef could be recommended as a desirable aging method to improve tenderness of Hanwoo compared to aging in conventional refrigerator.

  • In order to investigate the effect of front channel in DAL (dual active layer) TFT (thin film transistor), we successfully fabricated DAL TFT composed of ITZO and IGZO as active layer using the solution process. In this structure, ITZO and IGZO active layer were used as front and back channel, respectively. The front channel was changed from 0.05 to 0.2 M at fixed 0.3 M IGZO of back channel. When the mol concentration of front channel was increased, the threshold voltage (VTH) was increased from 2.0 to -11.9 V and off current also was increased from 10-12 to 10-11. This phenomenon is due to increasing the carrier concentration by increasing the volume of the front channel. The saturation mobility of DAL TFT with 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 M ITZO were 0.45, 4.3, and $0.65cm2/V{\cdot}s$. Even though 0.2 M ITZO has higher carrier concentration than 0.05 and 0.1 M ITZO, the 0.1 M ITZO/0.3 M IGZO DAL TFT has the highest saturation mobility. This is due to channel defect such as pores and pin-holes. These defect sites were created during deposition process by solvent evaporation. Due to these defect sites, the 0.1 M ITZO/0.3 M IGZO DAL TFT shows the higher saturation mobility than that of DAL TFT with front channel of 0.2 M ITZO.

  • For a formation of membrane structures, single crystal silicon wafers have been anisotropically etched with solutions of KOH and KOH-IPA. The etching rate was observed to be strongly dependent upon the etchant temperature and concentration. Mask patterns for the etching experiment was aligned to incline $45^{\circ}$on the primary flat of the silicon wafer. The different etching characteristics were observed according to pattern directions and etchant concentration. When the KOH concentration was fixed to 20 wt%, the U-groove etching shape was observed for the etching temperature of above $80^{\circ}C$, and V-groove shapes observed at below $80^{\circ}C$. Hillocks, which were generated at the etched silicon surfaces, has been decreased as the increasing of the etchant temperature and concentration.

  • We report a simple method for preparing hydrophobic mesoporous silica and its use as a pre-concentrating agent of gas analytes. Hydrophobic mesoporous silica was prepared by coating PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) thin layer on commercial mesoporous silica with thermal deposition method in a sealed chamber. By using this method, we were able to coat PDMS layer on inner-walls of pores larger than 15 nm. Also, contact angle measured on a surface consisting of PDMS-coated mesoporous silica exceeded $150^{\circ}$, implying that the surface has high water repellency. Pre-concentration ability of PDMS-coated mesoporous silica and baremesoporous silica was tested under dry and humid conditions. Adsorption and molecular desorption of gas analytes was much enhanced by PDMS-coating on mesoporous silica under both dry and humid conditions. Therefore we suggest that PDMS-coated mesoporous silica can be an efficient pre-concentration agent in order to enhance sensitivity of various detectors.

  • The performance of polymer photovoltaic cells based on blends of poly(3-hexylyhiophene) (P3HT) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) is strongly influenced by blend composition and thickness. Polymer photovoltaic cells based on bulk-heterojunction have been fabricated with a structure of ITO/poly(3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)-pentacene/poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT):phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM)/Al. We have prepared PEDOT:PSS by dissolving pentacene in N-methylpyrrolidine (NMP) and mixing with PEDOT:PSS. Pentacene was added a maximum concentration of approximately 5.5mg to the PEDOT:PSS solution and sonicated for 10 min. Active layer (P3HT:PCBM) (1:1) was strongly influenced by PEDOT:PSS-pentacene. We have investigated the performance of photovoltaic device with different concentration of P3HT:PCBM (1:1) 2.0wt%, 2.2wt%, 2.4wt% and 2.6wt%, respectively. The photocurrent and power conversion efficiency (PCE) showed a maximum between 2.0wt% and 2.2wt% concentration of P3HT:PCBM. This implied that both morphology and electron transport properties of the layer influenced the performance of the present photovoltaic cells. As the concentration of P3HT:PCBM blends as an active layer was increased, the power conversion efficiency was decreased. P3HT:PCBM layer and PEDOT:PSS-pentacene layer were characterized by work function, UV-visible absorption, atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM).
