$H_2S$ is a flammable toxic gas that can be produced in plants, mines, and industries and is especially fatal to human body. In this study, CuO nanowire structure with high porosity was fabricated by deposition of copper on highly porous singlewall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) template followed by oxidation. The SWCNT template was formed on alumina substrates by the arc-discharge method. The oxidation temperatures for Cu nanowires were varied from 400 to $800^{\circ}C$. The morphology and sensing properties of the CuO nanowire sensor were characterized by FESEM, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, XRD, and currentvoltage examination. The $H_2S$ gas sensing properties were carried out at different operating temperatures using dry air as the carrier gas. The CuO nanowire structure oxidized at $800^{\circ}C$ showed the highest response at the lowest operating temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. The optimum operating temperature was shifted to higher temperature to $300^{\circ}C$ as the oxidation temperature was lowered. The results were discussed based on the mechanisms of the reaction with ionosorbed oxygen and the CuS formation reaction on the surface.

The NO$_2$ gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film of Copper-tetra-tert-butylphalocyanine(CUTBP). The optimum conditions for a film deposition were obtained through a study of $\pi$-A isotherm and the deposited film status was confirmed by ellipsometry measurements. In the NO$_2$ response experiments, first of all, the proper number of layer was obtained by a change of the electrical conductivities depending on the number of layer when the film is exposed to the gas. And response time, recovery time, and reproducibility were measured on it. On the other hand, how the NO$_2$ gas interacts to the LB film was studied by UV/visible absorption spectra.

We investigated the detection properties of nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas using transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors. The $CuAlO_2$ film was fabricated on an indium tin oxide (ITO)/glass substrate by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and then the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ active layer was formed by annealing. Structural and optical characterizations revealed that the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ layer with a thickness of around 200 nm had a non-crystalline structure, showing a quite flat surface and a high transparency above 65 % in the range of visible light. From the NO gas sensing measurements, it was found that the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors exhibited the maximum sensitivity to NO gas in dry air at an operating temperature of $180^{\circ}C$. We also found that these $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors showed reversible and reliable electrical resistance-response to NO gas in the operating temperature range. These results indicate that the transparent p-type semiconductor $CuAlO_2$ thin films are very promising for application as sensing materials for gas sensors, in particular, various types of transparent p-n junction gas sensors. Also, these transparent p-type semiconductor $CuAlO_2$ thin films could be combined with an n-type oxide semiconductor to fabricate p-n heterojunction oxide semiconductor gas sensors.

A carbazole-based Schiff base CB2 was synthesized and applied as a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe for $Cu^{2+}$ in $H_2O$-DMSO (8/2, v/v, pH = 7.4) solution. CB2 exhibits an excellent selectivity to $Cu^{2+}$ over other examined metal ions with a prominent fluorescence "turn-on" at 475 nm. CB2 and $Cu^{2+}$ forms a 1:2 binding ratio complex with detection limit of $9.5{\mu}M$. In addition, the $Cu^{2+}$ recognition process is hardly interfered by other examined metal ions.

The chemiluminescence reaction of lophine with $H_2O_2$ in alkaline solution has been investigated for use in determination of $Cu^{2+}$ ions. The observed chemiluminescence intensity is found to be a function of the concentration of $Cu^{2+}$. Under the optimum reagent concentrations such as $4{\times}10^{-4}M$ lophine, 0.8 M KOH, 0.2M $H_2O_2,{\lambda}_{em}$, 533nm, the linear range and the detection limit were found to be 0.048ug/ml-48.32ug/ml (R=0.99897) and 0.005ulg/ml respectively. Relative standard deviation for five determinations of 24.16ug/ml $Cu^{2+}$ is 2.35%. The interference from other species was investigated. The proposed method was applied to the determination of $Cu^{2+}$ in different water samples.

Fluorescent and colorimetric recognition properties of 2-(4-N-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone)-8-hydroxyquinoline (1) in buffered aqueous solution (1% DMSO, HEPES 20 mM, pH = 7.4) have been examined. Sensor 1 displays highly selective and sensitive recognition to $Cu^{2+}$ with fluorescence "ON-OFF" performance. The in situ formed 1-$Cu^{2+}$ complex exhibits an excellent selectivity toward sulfide ions with fluorescence "OFF-ON" behavior via $Cu^{2+}$ displacement approach. Thus, relay recognition of $Cu^{2+}$ and sulfide by a known molecule 1 has been achieved.

우리는 금속 산화물 CuO nanoparticles (CuO NPs)과 전도성 고분자 Polyaniline (PANI)가 접목된 CNT fiber 유연 전극(CuO NPs/PANI/CNT fiber 전극)을 개발하여 H₂O₂ 검출용 비효소적 전기화학센서에 적용하였다. CNT fiber 표면 위에 PANI와 CuO NPs을 전기화학적 합성/증착을 통해 제작된 CuO NPs/PANI/CNT fiber 전극은 주사전자 현미경(SEM)과 에너지분산형 분광분석법(EDS)을 통해 표면 분석이 수행되었으며, 순환전압 전류법(CV)과 전기화학 임피던스법(EIS), 시간대전류법(CA)을 이용하여 전기화학적 특성 및 H₂O₂ 센싱 성능이 분석되었다. CuO NPs/PANI/CNT fiber 전극은 대조군인 bare CNT fiber 전극과 비교하여 약 4.78배의 유효 표면적 증가를 보였으며, 약 8.33배의 전자 전달 저항(R_et) 감소로 인한 우수한 전기 전도성 및 효율적인 전자전달 등의 전기화학적 특성을 나타냈다. 이런 향상된 전극 특성은 CuO NPs와 PANI의 접목을 통한 시너지 효과에 기인한 것으로, 결과적으로 H₂O₂ 검출에 대한 센싱 성능이 개선되었다.

In this study, hierarchical mesoporous CuO spheres, ZnO flowers, and heterojunction CuO/ZnO nanostructures were fabricated via a facile hydrothermal method. The as-prepared materials were characterized in detail using various analytical methods such as powder X-ray diffraction, micro Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The obtained results are consistent with each other. The H₂S-sensing characteristics of the sensors fabricated based on the CuO spheres, ZnO flowers, and CuO/ZnO heterojunction were investigated at different temperatures and gas concentrations. The sensor based on ZnO flowers showed a maximum response of ~141 at 225 ℃. The sensor based on CuO spheres exhibited a maximum response of 218 at 175 ℃, whereas the sensor based on the CuO/ZnO nano-heterostructure composite showed a maximum response of 344 at 150 ℃. The detection limit (DL) of the sensor based on the CuO/ZnO heterojunction was ~120 ppb at 150 ℃. The CuO/ZnO sensor showed the maximum response to H₂S compared with other interfering gases such as ethanol, methanol, and CO, indicating its high selectivity.

We have manufacture Copper-tetra-tert-butylphalocyanine (CuTBP)Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films, which is known be sensitive to NO$_2$ gab. A response of these films to the NO$_2$ gab was studied. A surface pleasure of 25mN/m was obtained as a proper one for a film deposition. A deposited film status was identified with Uv/visible absorption spectra, ellipsometry measurements, and current-voltage(I-Y) characteristics. The NO$_2$ gas response experiments under 200ppm conducentration show that there are increment of electrical conductivity by 12 times, 5 seconds of response time, and 5 seconds of response time, and 90 seconds of recovery time.
