New thin-and diselena-crown ethers containing two suffer and selenium donor atoms have been prepared. And then, mercury ($Hg^{2+}$) ion-selective electrodes with PVC-plasticizer (STPB) based on some macrocycles as neutral carriers were also made. The electrochemical selectivities for various ions, and the effects for macrocycles, matrix of membranes, ratio of plasticizer to macrowcles, concentration and pH of test solution were investigated on the $Hg^{2+}$ ion-selective electrodes. The 1, 10-diselena-18-crown-6-PVC-STPB (sodium tetraphenylborate) exhibited good linear responses of ${28.2}\pm{0.6}$ decade-1 for $Hg^{2+}$ ion in the conientration ranges of $10^{-2}~10^{-6}$ M $Hg^{2+}$ ion. This electrode exhibited comparatively good selectivities for $Hg^{2+}$ ion in comparison with alkali and alkaline earth metal ions, some heavy metal ions and rare earth metal ion in the range of pH 2.5~6.0. In addition, this electrode was applied as a sensor in the titration of $Hg^{2+}$ ion with $1^-$ ion in water.

In this study, the method of adsorption by activated carbon in the removal of Hg(II) ion in waste water was treated. The influence of kinds of activated carbon and effect of temperature and the influence of coexistent salt on adsorption rates, the influence of pH in the adsorption, equilibrium and adsorption of mercury from activated carbon were investigated. From the adsorption on activated carbon of mercury(II) ion in the presence of cyanide or thiocyanate ion was found that mercury(II) was easily adsorved onto the activated carbon in the form of complex artion such as Hg(CN)$_4^{2-}$, Hg(SCN)$_4^{2-}$ respectively. ZnCl$_2$ activation method had a higher adsorptive ability than steam activation method in adsorption of Hg on activated carbon. Activated carbon adsorbed iodide ion is very effective on adsorption of Hg.

The structure of boron ion-implanted pn junctio in the vacancy-doped p-type HgCdTe was investigated with the differential Hall measurement. The as-implanted junction showed the electron concentration as high as 1${\times}10^{18}/cm^{3}$ and the junction depth of 0.6.mu.m. When the HgCdTe junction was heated in oven, the electron concentration near the junction decreased and the junction depth increased as the annealing temperature and time increased. The junction structure after the thermal annealing was n$^{+}$/n$^{-}$/p. For the 200.deg. C 20min annealed sample, the electron mobility was 10$^{4}cm^{2}/V{\cdot}$s near the surface(n$^{+}$), and was larger thatn 10$^{5}cm^{2}/V{\cdot}$s near the junction(n$^{+}$). The junction formation mechanism is conjectured as follows. When HgCdTe is ion-implanted, the ion energy generates crystal defecis and displaced Hg atoms HgCdTe is ion-implanted, the ion energy generates crystal defecis and displaced Hg atoms near the surface. The displaced Hg vacancies diffuse in easily by the thernal treatment and a fill the Hg vacancies in the p-HgCdTe substrate. With the Hg vacancies filled completely, the GfCdTe substrate becomes n-type because of the residual n-type impurity which was added during the wafer growing. Therefore, the n$^{+}$/n$^{-}$/p regions are formed by crystal defects, residual impurities, and Hg vacancies, respectively.

The study of reaction mechanism for the substitution of ethylenediamine (en) for Cl and Hedta from $[CoCl(Hedta)]^-$ in the presence of $Hg^{2+}$ ion was carried out by uv and CD spectra. From the kinetic data, we proposed that the first ethylenediamine be substituted through the associative reaction path by means of interaction of $Hg^{2+}$ ion with Co(III), and that the second and the third ethylenediamine be substituted stepwise. From the optical purities of $[Co(en)_3]^{3+}$ which was formed after reaction, we suggested the critical stereochemical step and new substitution reaction paths.

A new chemosensor based on a self-assembled system has been devised to detect Hg²⁺ions efficiently. We demonstrated that the amphiphilic building blocks consisting of pyrene and boronic acid (1) aggregate in aqueous solutions and provide an outstanding sensing platform for sensitive detection. The self-assembled 1 exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for Hg²⁺ion detection via fluorescence quenching, where the Hg²⁺ion detection ensued from a fast transmetallation of 1. The Stern-Volmer (SV) quenching constant for its fluorescence quenching by Hg²⁺ions was approximately 1.58 × 10⁸ M^-1. In addition, self-assembled 1 exhibited excellent sensing abilities at nano-molar concentration levels when tap water and freshwater samples were contaminated with of Hg²⁺ ions.

Two new chemosensors, rhodamine 6G derivative bearing hydroxyethyl group (1) and rhodamine base derivative bearing 15-crown-5 group (2) were synthesized and their sensing behaviors toward various metal ions were investigated by UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies. Addition of $Hg^{2+}$ ion to a $CH_3CN$ solution of 1 and 2 gave visual color changes as well as fluorescent OFF-ON observations. Selectivity and sensitivity of 1 towards $Hg^{2+}$ are excellent enough to detect micromolar level of $Hg^{2+}$ ion, even in equeous media and biological sample (HeLa cell).

In this study, Sulfonated PONF-g-styrene ion exchange fibers were synthesized by radiation induced graft copolymerization. And also, hybride ion exchange fibers, which was combined sulfonated PONF-g-styrene fibers and cationic ion exchange resin, were fabricated by hot melt adhesion method and then their adsorption properties were investigated. ion exchange capacity and water content of hybrid ion exchange fibers increased as compared with those of bead and ion exchange fiber. Their maximum values were 4.76 meq/g and 23.5%, respectively. Adsorption breakthrough time for mercury of hybrid ion exchange fiber was slower than those of bead resin and fibrous ion exchanger. It's value was 130 minutes. Their breakthrough time become short as increasing of pH, and concentration. The initial breakthrough time was observed before and after 10 minutes as increasing of concentration. The adsorption of hybrid ion exchange fibers for $Hg^{2+}\;Pb^{2+},\;Cd^{2+}$ among heavy metals in the mixed solution was observed before 20 min. And also, The adsorption for $Hg^{2+}$ among the heavy metals by hybride ion exchange fibers was observed.

Rhodamine B Hydrazide as a novel fluorescent and colorimetric probe exhibiting remarkably selective fluorescence enhancement toward Hg²⁺ ion over other 16 metal ions is herein introduced. The probe reacts with Hg²⁺ ion followed by its spirolactam ring-opening to give a remarkable enhancement of absorption maximum at 550 nm as well as an enhanced fluorescence intensity at 580 nm in aqueous media. Upon titration with Hg²⁺ ion in various concentration of 10~200 uM, we found that the probe shows a marked color change from colorless to pink, enabling naked-eye detection toward mercury ion. In addition, in the presence of Hg²⁺ ion, the probe gave rise to change from non-florescence to strong orange fluorescence (Off-On) with a good linearity of R²=0.97. This preliminary results demonstrate that the fluorescent chemosensor we herein introduced can open a new strategy for marked selective and sensitive detection of mercury ions in contaminated soil containing various metal ions.

For the several decades, various nanomaterials are broadly used in industry and research. With the growth of nanotechnology, the study of nanotoxicity is being accelerated. Particularly, mercury ion is widely used in real life. Because the mercury is representative high toxic material, it is highly recommended to detect the mercury ion. In previous reported work, thymine-thymine mismatches (T-T) capture mercury ion and create very stable base pair ($T-Hg^{2+}-T$). Here, we performed the high sensitive sensing method for direct label free detection of mercury ions and DNA binding using Kelvin Probe Force Microscope (KPFM). In this method, 30 base pairs of thymine (T-30) is used for mercury specific DNA binding ($T-Hg^{2+}-T$). KPFM is able to detect the mercury ion because there is difference between bare T-30 DNA and mercury mediated DNA ($T-Hg^{2+}-T$).
