코어-쉘 TiO₂/Ag 나노입자를 수정된 졸-겔 공정과 함께 acetoxime을 환원제로 사용한 물/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DDBA)/cyclohexane의 역 미셀 방법으로 합성하였다. 합성된 TiO₂/Ag 나노입자의 구조, 형태 및 크기를 XRD, UV-visible spectroscopy, SEM, TEM 및 TGA를 이용하여 조사하였다. TiO₂/Ag 나노입자의 크기는 [물]/[DDBA]의 몰비를 조절하여 제어할 수 있었다. TiO₂/Ag 나노입자의 크기와 다분산성은 [물]/[DDBA]의 몰비가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 아나타제 결정상의 TiO₂ 나노입자 위에 생성된 Ag 나노입자는 430 nm 주변에서 강한 표면 플라즈몬 공명(SPR) 흡수 특성을 나타내었다. SPR 피크는 나노입자 크기의 증가에 따라 장파장으로의 적색 이동이 나타났다. 70 wt% 조성으로 TiO₂/Ag 나노입자를 분산시켜 전도성 페이스트를 제조하고, 스크린 인쇄법으로 PET 필름에 코팅하여 전도성을 조사하였다. TiO₂/Ag 나노입자 페이스트로 코팅된 필름은 상용 Ag 페이스트의 경우보다 높은 405~630 μΩ/sq 영역의 표면저항을 나타내었다.

Here, we report the development of a new and low-cost core-shell structure for lithium-ion battery anodes using silicon waste sludge and the Ti-ion complex. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the raw waste silicon sludge powder to be pure silicon without other metal impurities and the particle size distribution is measured to be from 200 nm to 3 ㎛ by dynamic light scattering (DLS). As a result of pulverization by a planetary mill, the size of the single crystal according to the Scherrer formula is calculated to be 12.1 nm, but the average particle size of the agglomerate is measured to be 123.6 nm. A Si/TiO₂ core-shell structure is formed using simple Ti complex ions, and the ratio of TiO₂ peaks increased with an increase in the amount of Ti ions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed that TiO₂ coating on Si nanoparticles results in a Si-TiO₂ core-shell structure. This result is expected to improve the stability and cycle of lithium-ion batteries as anodes.

Organic solar cell was fabricated using one-pot deposition of a mixture of NiO nanoparticles, P3HT and PCBM. In the presence of NiO, the photovoltaic performance was slightly increased comparing to that of the device without NiO. When $TiO_2$ thin films with a thickness of 2~3 nm was prepared on NiO nanoparticles using atomic layer deposition, the power conversion efficiency was increased by a factor 2.5 with respect to that with bare NiO. Moreover, breakdown voltage of the film consisting of NiO, P3HT, and PCBM on indium tin oxide was increased by more than 1 V in the presence of $TiO_2$-shell on NiO nanoparticles. It is evidenced that S atoms of P3HT can be oxidized on NiO surfaces, and $TiO_2$-shell on NiO nanoparticles. It is evidenced that S atoms of P3HT can be oxidzed on NiO surfaces, and $TiO_2$ shell heavily reduced oxidation of S at oxide/P3HT interfaces. Oxidized S atoms can most likely act as carrier generation sites and recombination centers within the depletion region, decreasing breakdown voltage and performance of organic solar cells. Our result shows that fabrication of various core-shell nanostruecutres of oxides by atomic layer deposition with controlled film thickness can be of potential importance for fabricating highly efficient organic solar cells.

Hydrothermal synthesis of highly crystalline $TiO_2$ nanorods is a well-developed technique and the nanorods have been widely used as the template for growth of various core-shell nanorod structures. Magneli/CdS core-shell nanorod structures are fabricated for the photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) electrode to achieve enhanced carrier transport along the metallic magneli phase nanorod template. However, the long and thin $TiO_2$ nanorods may form a high resistance path to the electrons transferred from the CdS layer. $TiO_2$ nanorods synthesized are reduced to magneli phases, $TixO_{2x-1}$, by heat treatment in a hydrogen environment. Two types of magneli phase nanorods of $Ti_4O_7$ and $Ti_3O_5$ are synthesized. Structural morphology and X-ray diffraction analyses are carried out. CdS nano-films are deposited on the magneli nanorods for the main light absorption layer to form a photoanode, and the PEC performance is measured under simulated sunlight irradiation and compared with the conventional $TiO_2/CdS$ core-shell nanorod electrode. A higher photocurrent is observed from the stand-alone $Ti_3O_5/CdS$ core-shell nanorod structure in which the nanorods are grown on both sides of the seed layer.

The core/shell of nanowires (NWs) with Cu-doped CdSe quantum dots were fabricated as an electron transport layer (ETL) for perovskite solar cells, based on ZnO/TiO2 arrays. We presented CdSe with Cu2+ dopants that were synthesized by a colloidal process. An improvement of the recombination barrier, due to shell supplementation with Cu-doped CdSe quantum dots. The enhanced cell steady state was attributable to TiO2 with Cu-doped CdSe QD supplementation. The mechanism of the recombination and electron transport in the perovskite solar cells becoming the basis of ZnO/TiO2 arrays was investigated to represent the merit of core/shell as an electron transport layer in effective devices.

The electrical property and microstructure in $BaTiO_3$ ceramics doped rare-earth ions with intermediate ionic size ($Dy^{3+},Ho^{3+},Y^{3+}$) were investigated. Microstructures have been characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Incorporation of rare-earth ions to $BaTiO_3$ ceramics depended on their ionic radius sensitively. Compared to Ho and Y ions, Dy ions provide $BaTiO_3$ ceramics with the high rate of densification and well-developed shell formation, due to their high solubility in the $BaTiO_3$ lattice, but the microstructure of Dy doped $BaTiO_3$ ceramics is unstable at high temperature, because Dy ions could not play a role of grain growth inhibition, leading to diffuse into $BaTiO_3$ lattice continuously after completion of densification during sintering. Comparing electrical property and microstructure, it is shown that the reliability of capacitor improved by high shell ratio.

염료감응태양전지의 효율을 높이기 위해서, 광전극으로 쓰이는 다공성 $TiO_2$ 후막에 플라즈마원자증착기술(PEALD)과 원자증착기술(ALD)을 이용하여 알루미나($Al_2O_3$)막을 3차원적으로 균일하고 매우 얇게 형성하였다. 이를 통해서 태양빛에 의해 여기된 염료의 전자가 알루미나를 통과(tunneling)하여 $TiO_2$ 전도대로 도입되게 함과 동시에 $TiO_2$ 전도대로 도입된 전자들이 전해질과 염료로 재결합하는 현상을 방지하였다. 결국 이러한 작용에 의해서 염료감응태양전지의 개방전압을 높이는 효과를 관측하였다. 나아가 PEALD와 ALD 두가지 방식으로 형성된 $Al_2O_3$ 껍질층의 특성 차이를 비교 관찰하고 이에 따른 염료감응태양전지의 소자 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ CS를 화학적 에칭과 열처리에 의해 Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ CS에서 Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ yolk-shell (YS) 형태의 복합재료를 제조하였다. FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XRD 분석을 통하여 Fe₂O₃와 Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ CS 및 Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ YS 안료의 물리적 특성을 측정하였다. 안료를 poly acrylate (PA) 수지에 혼합한 도료들의 일사반사율과 색상변화는 UV-Vis-NIR 분석으로 차열 온도는 실험실에서 제작한 차열 온도 측정기를 통해 측정하였다. Fe₂O₃/TiO₂ YS 적색 안료를 사용한 PA 도료는 우수한 근적외선 반사율을 보였으며, Fe₂O₃ 안료를 사용한 도료에 비해 차열 온도가 13 ℃ 감소하였다.

We report nanostructure electrodes with $TiO_2$ as a core and carbon as a shell ($TiO_2$@C) for oxygen reduction in alkaline solution. The structure of core-shell electrodes is characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction method, and X-ray photoelectron microscopy. The electrochemical properties of the $TiO_2$@C electrodes are characterized using a potentiostat and compared with those of carbon supported Pt catalyst. In particular, the core-shell electrode with dominant pyridinic-N component exhibits an imporved electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline solution.

Photocatalysis using UV light and catalysts is an attractive low temperature and non-energy- intensive method for remediation of a wide range of chemical contaminants like chloroform (CF). Recently development of environmental friendly and sustainable catalytic systems is needed before such catalysts can be routinely applied to large-scale remediation or drinking water treatment. Titanium dioxide is a candidate material, since it is stable, highly reactive, and inexpensive. Diatoms are photosynthetic, single-celled algae that make a microscale silica shell with nano scale features. These diatoms have an ability to biologically fabricate $TiO_2$ nanoparticles into this shell in a process that parallels nanoscale silica mineralization. We cultivated diatoms, metabolically deposited titanium into the shell by using a two-stage photobioreactor and used this biogenic $TiO_2$ to this study. In this study we evaluated how effectively biogenic $TiO_2$ nanoparticles transform CF compared with chemically-synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticlesthe and effect of pretreatment of diatom-produced $TiO_2$ nanoparticles on photocatalytic transformation of CF. The rate of CF transformation by diatom-$TiO_2$ particles is a factor of 3 slower than chemically-synthesized one and chloride ion production was also co-related with CF transformation, and 79~91% of CF mineralization was observed in two $TiO_2$ particles. And the period of sonication and mass transfer due to particle size, evaluated by difference of oxygen tention does not affect on the CF transformation. Based on the XRD analysis we conclude that slower CF transformation by diatom-$TiO_2$ might be due to incomplete annealing to the anatase form.
