$Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si 판위에 MgO 박막을 성장하여 MgO 단결정과 결정배향성이 유사한 초전형 적외선 센서용 기판을 제작하였다. RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 MgO 박막을 성장하였고, 그 위에 Pt 하부전극과 PLT 박막을 성장시킨 후 c축 배향성을 조사하였다. $500^{\circ}C$의 기판온도와 30 mTorr의 분위기 압력 및 160 W의 RF power에서 성장된 MgO 박막이 단결정 MgO가 가지는 배향성 정도의 우수한 a축 배향성을 보였고, 그 위에 성장된 PLT 박막은 MgO 단결정 기판위에 성장된 것과 거의 회절강도 변화가 유사한 c축 배향성을 보였다.

SDB 웨이퍼를 이용하여 실리콘 압저항형 절대압센서를 제조하고 이를 가스누출 감지시스템에 응용하였다. 이 경우 센서는 $0{\sim}600\;mmH_{2}O$, $0{\sim}100^{\circ}C$의 압력, 온도범위에서 정상적으로 동작하여야 하고 다이아프램이 파괴되었을 때 가스가 소자 외부로 누출되어서는 안된다. 따라서 다이아프램 내의 공극을 유리(Pyrex7740)와 진공중($10^{-4}$ torr)에서 양극 접합을 행하였다. 제조된 센서는 압력에 대하여 우수한 선형특성을 보였고, 압력감도는 대기압이상 $0{\sim}600\;mmH_{2}O$의 압력범위에서 $4.06{\mu}V/VmmH_{2}O$ 이었다. 온도보상 일체화 조건을 조사하기 위해 Al 박막저항을 제조하여 온도보상을 행하였는데 오프셋의 온도 drift는 80 %이상, 감도의 온도의존성은 95 %이상 보강 효과를 얻었다. 또한 다이오드(PXIN4001)를 이용한 온도보상시 오프셋의 온도 drift는 98 %이상, 감도의 온도의존성은 90%이상 보상 효과를 나타내었다.

H₂S is a toxic and harmful gas, even at concentrations as low as hundreds of parts per million; thus, developing an H₂S sensor with excellent performance in terms of high response, good selectivity, and fast response time is important. In this study, an H₂S sensor with a high response and fast response time, consisting of a sensing material (SnO₂), an electrode, a temperature sensor, and a micro-heater, was developed using micro-electro-mechanical system technology. The developed H₂S sensor with a micro-heater (circular type) has excellent H₂S detection performance at low H₂S concentrations (0-10 ppm), with quick response time (<16 s) and recovery time (<65 s). Therefore, we expect that the developed H₂S sensor will be considered a promising candidate for protecting workers and the general population and for responding to tightened regulations.

We report the effect of the fabric of the surface microstructure on the CO gas sensing properties of $SnO_2$ thin films deposited on self-assembled Au nanodots ($SnO_2$/Au) that were formed on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates. We characterized structural and morphological properties, comparing them to those of $SnO_2$ thin films deposited directly onto $SiO_2/Si$ substrates. We observed a significant enhancement of CO gas sensing properties in the $SnO_2$/Au gas sensors, specifically exhibiting a high maximum response at $200^{\circ}C$ and quite a low detection limit of 1 ppm level in dry air. In particular, the response of the $SnO_2/Au$ gas sensor was found to reach the maximum value of 32.5 at $200^{\circ}C$, which is roughly 27 times higher than the response (~1.2) of the $SnO_2$ gas sensor obtained at the same operating temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the $SnO_2/Au$ gas sensors displayed very fast response and recovery behaviors. The observed enhancement in the CO gas sensing properties of the $SnO_2/Au$ sensors is mainly ascribed to the formation of a nanostructured morphology in the active $SnO_2$ layer having a high specific surface-reaction area by the insertion of a nanodot form of Au nucleation layer.

NASICON 전해질을 이용하여 대기환경 측정용의 SOx센서를 개발하였다. 다음 형태의 $Na_{2}SiO_{3}(Pt)$ 기준전극을 사용한 갈바니 셀을 조립하였다. Pt | $Na_{2}SiO_{3}$ | NASICON | $Na_{2}SO_{4}$ | Pt, $SO_{2}$, air $SO_{2}$ 와 NASICON의 반응을 피하기 위해 $Na_{2}SO_{4}(Pt)$를 지시전극으로 사용하였으며, $400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 $5{\sim}95ppm$ 농도의 $SO_{2}$ 가스를 주입하고 나서 EMF를 측정하였다. $500^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 측정된 EMF는 계산치와 일치하였으나, $500^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 불완전한 평형 때문에 센서의 거동이 불안정하였다. 감응시간은 약 10분 정도 이내였다. 이전지의 안정도와 응답시간으로 보건데, $Na_{2}SiO_{3}(Pt)$를 기준전극으로 하고 순수 $Na_{2}SO_{4}(Pt)$를 지시전극으로한 NASICON 고체전해질은 SOx 측정용의 상업적인 센서물질로써 가능성이 있다.

La 조성이 $5{\sim}15%$이고 PbO과잉인 PLT 타겟을 이용하여 MgO(100) 단결정 기판위에 고주파 마그네트론 스펏터링법으로 PLT 박막을 제조하였으며, 고온 XRD 분석을 하였다. 제조조건은 기판온도를 $580^{\circ}C$, 분위기압을 10mTorr, 고주파 전력밀도를 $1.7W/cm^{2}$ 및 $Ar/O_{2}$를 10/1로 하였을 때 PLT 박막들은 La 농도가 증가할수록 c-축 성장율과 정방정형성(c/a)이 감소하였고 확산형 상전이 특성을 나타내었다. 이러한 PLT 박막을 이용하여 초전형 적외선 센서를 제조하였으며, 이력특성과 광특성을 측정하였다. 제조된 적외선 센서는 $1.71{\mu}C/cm^{2}$ 이상의 잔류 분극도를 보였고 500 mV이상의 초전전압을 보였으며 신호대 잡음비는 10:1 이하로 낮았다.

Two kinds of new NOx sensing mechanism was proposed and examined. One of those was potentiomtric sensor based on the measurement of decomposed oxygen from NO using YSZ porous diffusion barrier and Pd catalytic electrode. The sensor based on decomposed oxygen measurement responded to the range of 300 - 1000 ppm NO in $N_{2}$ environment and the sensitivities were coincident with theoretical values at 700 and $800^{\circ}C$ but the decomposition rate depended on gas flow rate. The other sensor was equilibrium potentiometric type using $Gd_{2}O_{3}$-nitrates solid solution as sensing material. The sensor using $Gd_{2}O_{3}$-nitrates solid solution was suitable for NOxxsensing at $700^{\circ}C$ in 5 % oxygen and the sensitivity was 19.3 mV/decade. However, long term stability of the sensing material at high temperature was not sufficient.

Brush-like ZnO hierarchical nanostructures decorated with MgxZn1-xO (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5) were fabricated and examined for application to a gas sensor. They were synthesized using vapor phase growth (VPG) on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates. To generate electronic accumulation at ZnO surface, MgZnO nanoparticles were prepared by sol-gel method, and the ratio of Mg and Zn was adjusted to optimize the device for NO₂ gas detection. As the electrons in the accumulation layer generated by the heterojunction reacted faster and more frequently with the gas, the sensitivity and speed improved. When tested as sensing materials for gas sensors at 100 ppm NO₂ at 300℃, these MgZnO decorated ZnO nanostructures exhibited an improvement from 165 to 514 times compared to pristine ZnO. The response and recovery time of the MgZnO decorated ZnO samples were shorter than those of the pristine ZnO. Various analyzing techniques, including field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) were employed to confirm the growth morphology, atomic composition, and crystalline information of the samples, respectively.

A composite film of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/sol-gel-derived zinc oxide(ZnO)/Nafion has been utilized as an efficient immobilization matrix for the construction of a highly sensitive and stable tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) (Ru(${bpy)_3}^{2+})$ electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) sensor. The electrochemical and ECL behaviors of Ru(${bpy)_3}^{2+})$ ion-exchanged into the composite film were strongly dependent upon the sol-gel preparation condition, the amount of MWCNT incorporated into the ZnO/Nafion composite film, and the buffer solution pH. The synergistic effect of MWCNTs and ZnO in the composite films increased not only the sensitivity but also the long-term stability of the ECL sensor. The present ECL sensor based on the MWCNT/ZnO/Nafion gave a linear response ($R^2$ = 0.999) for tripropylamine concentration from 500 nM to 1.0 mM with a remarkable detection limit (S/N = 3) of 15 nM. The present ECL sensor showed outstanding long-term stability (94% initial signal retained for 5 weeks). Since the present ECL sensor exhibits large response towards NADH, it could be applied as a transduction platform for the ECL biosensor in which the NADH is produced from the dehydrogenase-based enzymatic reaction in the presence of NA$D^+$ cofactor.
