An analytical method for the spectrometric simultaneous determination of the individual ions in the mix-tures of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Fe^{2+}$ ions utilizing a technique of flow injection analysis has been developed. The method was based on the oxidation reaction between $Fe^{2+}$ ion and $H_2O_2$ in an acidic medium and the subsequent formation of a red Fe$(SCN)^{3-x}_x$ ion by the complexation reaction between $Fe^{2+}$ ion and $SCN^-$ ion. Unlike the conventional methods which require separate processes for the pre-treatment of the sample solution, the current method uses the same FIA system for the pre-treatment and the analysis of the sample. The detection limit for the determination of $Fe^{2+}$ ion was found to be 6.00${\times}10^{-7}$M.

The effects of the iron ions for the light-induced mitochondrial $F_0F_1-ATPase$ of Lentinus edodes was studied. The enzyme activity was stimulated up to 202% by 0.1 mM $Fe^{2-}$ ion, but was inhibited by $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Mg^{2+}$. In the presence of 0.5 mM $Mg^{2+}$, the activity also increased 32% by 0.1 mM $Fe^{2+}$ ion, and decreased to a similar extent by $Fe^{3+}$ ion than by only $Fe^{3+}$ ion. Also, the activity was inhibited 53% by 5.0 mM $Fe^{2-}$ ion in the presence of 0.5 mM $Mg^{2+}$ ion and various concentration of $Fe^{3+}$ ion(mM). These results showed that $Fe^{2+}$ strongly stimulated the enzyme activity and its role for the enzyme was independent of $Mg^{2+}$ ion, but was dependent of $Fe^{3+}$ ion. From inactivation of the enzyme by addition of metal chelating agent, EDTA, it is suggested that the enzyme is to be metalloenzyme. The optimal pH and temperature of the enzyme in the presence of 0.1 mM $Fe^{2+}$ was 7.6 and $63^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The crystallographic properties and cation distribution of oxyspinels ferrite $Co_xFe_{1-x}O_4$ thin films have been explored by X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and conversion electron $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). Thin films are prepared by sol-gel method. Normal spinel structure is transformed to inverse spinel structure with increasing Co concentration CEMS results indicate that most of $Fe^{3+}$ ions are substituted to $Co^{3+}$ions. Accordingly $Co^{2+}$ ions on octahedral site migrate to tetrahedral site. Magnetic moment is decreased with increasing Co concentration, which means high spin $Fe^{3+}$ ions are replaced by low spin $Co^{3+}$.

A series of samples in the $Nd_{1-x}Ba_xFeO_{3-y}$ system has been prepared by heating the reactants to$1200^{\circ}C$ under an ambient atmosphere, and the solid solutions were identified by X-ray power diffraction analysis. The crystal systems of samples with x = 0.00 and 0.25 were found to be orthorhombic whose local symmetry is similiar to the distorted octahedral with orthoferrite type one, whereas those with x = 0.50 and 0.75 to be the cubic system. Since Fe ions in the solid solutions are a mixed valence state between $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Fe^{4+}$ ions, the nonstoichiometric chemical formulas could be determined from the mole ratio of $Fe^{4+}$ ion and oxygen vacacies. According to the Mossbauer spectroscopic analysis, the presence of 5-coordinated $FeO_5$ was evidenced only in the barium compounds along with $FeO_6,\;and\;FeO_4$, but not in the strontium and calcium compounds. The samples with x = 0.25 and 0.50 show a spectrum of superparamagnetism, which might be due to the formation of a domain of the ferromagnetic interaction between the $Fe^{3+}\;and\;Fe^{4+}$ ions. The electrical conductivities of all samples are within semiconducting range. Since the $Fe^{4+}$ ion acts as an electron acceptor level during the electron transfer between the Fe through intermediate $O^{2-}$ ions, the activation energy of the compounds decreases with the increment of $Fe^{4+}$ content.

This study was performed to investigate the separation of cesium cations by using an electrochemical ion exchanger of nickel hexacyanoferrate($KNiFe(CN)_6$) film electrode. Potential, current, and charge passing through the cyclic voltammograms were measured in singular and binary solutions of 1.0M $NaNO_3$ and 1.0M $CsNO_3$. Before and after each experiment, the structural morphology and atomic composition of $KNiFe(CN)_6$ were analyzed by SEM and EDS, respectively. The ion selectivity of $KNiFe(CN)_6$ was also observed by the voltammograms and atomic compositions measured in the solution alternated between sodium and cesium. As the result of this study, it was found that the electrically switched $KNiFe(CN)_6$ ion exchanger had the significant advantage of 40 times or longer durability than conventional organic or inorganic ion exchanger. It was also shown that the $KNiFe(CN)_6$ ion exchanger had high selectivity for cesium over sodium.

본 연구는 방사성 폐액의 처리를 목적으로 화학처리와 한외여과막(UF)의 결합공정에 의해서 세슘이온의 제거특성을 조사하였다. 이 공정은 대상핵종과 선택성이 크고 한외여과막에 의해서 분리가 가능한 거대분자를 주입하여 핵종을 결합시키고, 이를 한외여과막에 의해서 분리 제거하는 개념이다. 실험은 흡착제로서 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)를 제조하여 주입하였고 회분식 UF stirred cell를 이용하였으며, 용액의 pH, 세슘이온의 농도 및 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 농도에 따라 세슘이온의 제거효율을 측정하였다. 세슘의 제거효율은 pH 및 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 몰비에 따라 결정되며, pH가 5∼6에서 높은 제거율을 나타내었고 Cs/K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 몰비가 1.5 이하에서 90% 이상 제거되었다. K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)에 대한 Cs의 결합특성은 Langmuir isotherm형태의 식으로 나타내어 평가하였으며, 이때 세슘이온의 최대 흡착용량은 1.72 mM/mM K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2) 이었다.

The mixed ferrite $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$(x=0.0, 0.15, 0.5, 1.0) thin films were prepared by sol-gel method. Their crystallographic and magnetic hyperfine properties have been studied using X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and conversion electron $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy(CEMS). The crystal structure is found to be cubic spinel throughout the series($x{\leq}1.0$), and the lattice parameter $a_0$ increases linearly with increasing V content. XRD, XSP and CEMS indicate that $V^{3+}$ substitution for $Fe^{3+}$ in B-site is superior to $V^{2+}$ substitution for $Fe^{2+}$ in B-site. It is noticeable that both quadrupole shift and hyperfine field decreases with increasing V composition, suggesting the change of local symmetry and accompanying line-broadening. The line-broadening on CEMS spectra can be explained by the distribution of magnetic hyperfine fields.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{0.95}Ge_{0.95}Fe_{0.1}O_3$ were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Our sample has orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants are a = 4.795 $\AA$, b = 8.472 $\AA$, c = 2.932 $\AA$. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperatures of our sample is 13 K. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ions. The Zeeman sextets come from tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions and the doublets come from octahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrupole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted related with the atomic displacements. The N el temperature is 715 K, the Debye temperature are 540 K for octahedral site and 380 K for tetrahedral site, respectively.

The crystallographic properties and cationic distribution of $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ (M =Mn, Ni, Cu) and $Fe_3O_4$ thin films prepared by sol-gel method have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and conversion electron M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). The ionic valence, preferred site, and hyperfine field of Fe ions of the ferrites could be obtained by analyzing the CEMS spectra. The $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ films were found to maintain cubic spinel structure as in $Fe_3O_4$ with the lattice constant slightly decreased for Ni substitution and increased for Mn and Cu substitution from that of $Fe_3O_4$. Analyses on the CEMS data indicate that $Mn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ ions substitute octahedral $Fe^{2+}$ sites mostly, while $Cu^{2+}$ ions substitute both the octahedral and tetrahedral sites. The observed intensity ratio $A_B/A_A$ of the CEMS subspectra of the samples exhibited difference from the theoretical value. It is interpreted as due to the effect of the M substitution for A and B on the Debye temperature of the site. The relative line-broadening of the B-site CEMS subspectra can be explained by the dispersion of magnetic hyperfine fields due to random distribution of M cations in the B sites.

이중의 망간 perovskite 블록을 가진 Ruddlesden-Popper 상(R-P phase) $Sr_3Mn_2O_7$ 은 공기중에서 불안정하다. 본 연구에서는 망간 이온 자리에 철 이온을 소량 치환 함으로써 R-P 상을 안정화 시켰으며 이들의 결정구조는 X-선회절 데이터를 이용하여 Rietveld 법으로 정밀화하였다. 안정화에 필요한 Fe 이온의 양은 약 x=0.15로 나타났으며 Fe이온의 양이 증가함에 따라 쉽게 안정화 되었다. 자화율 측정결과 x=0.20 시료는 120K에서 paramgnetic-antiferromagnetic 전이를 나타내었고 이 전이 온도는 치환되는 Fe이온의 양이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다.
