The ZnO is able to produce hydrogen from water however it can only absorb ultraviolet region due to its 3.37eV of wide band gap. Therefore efficiency of solar hydrogen production is low. In this work we report investigation results of improved visible light photo-catalytic properties of CdSe quantum dots(QDs) sensitized ZnO nanorod heterostructures. Hydrothermally vertically grown ZnO nanorod arrays on FTO glass were sensitized with CdSe by using SILAR(successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction) method. Morphology of grown ZnO and CdSe sensitized ZnO nanorods had been investigated by FE-SEM that shows length of $2.0{\mu}m$, diameter of 120~150nm nanorod respectively. Photocatalytic measurements revealed that heterostructured samples show improved photocurrent density under the visible light illumination. Improved visible light performance of the heterostructures is resulting from narrow band gap of the CdSe and its favorable conduction band positions relative to potentials of ZnO band and water redox reaction.

The effect of oxidative stress on the alterations of different antioxidant enzyme activities was investigated in human skin melanoma cell line (SK-MEL-2). Oxidative stress was induced by the exposure to hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O$$_2$). SK-MEL-2 cells were treated with antioxidants such as vitamin E and selenomethionine in combination with $H_2O$$_2$. SK-MEL-$_2$ cells were exposed to various concentrations of $H_2O$$_2$ and measured the time course of changes in cell viability and antioxidant enzyme activities for 24 hr. Oxidative stress was induced by the exposure to 2.5mM hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O$$_2$) resulted in declining significantly for 24 hr. GPX and CAT activities peaked at 3 hr and returned to control levels by 24 hr. On the contrary, SOD activity was inactive before 6 hr but recovered at 24 hr. In case vitamin E (Vit E) and selenomethionine (Se-Met) were used at nontoxic concentrations (25$\mu$M Vit E/500$\mu$M Se-Met) to oxidative stress was induced by the exposure to hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O$$_2$) led to a 3- and 5-fold increase on the viability comparing to control and caused an increase in GPX activity respectively.

Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 thin film solar cells have been fabricated using sputtered Cu/Sn/Zn metallic precursors on Mo coated sodalime glass substrate without using a toxic H2Se and H2S atmosphere. Cu/Sn/Zn metallic precursors with various thicknesses were prepared using DC magnetron sputtering process at room temperature. As-deposited metallic precursors were sulfo-selenized inside a graphite box containing S and Se pellets using rapid thermal processing furnace at various sulfur to selenium (S/Se) compositional ratio. Thin film solar cells were fabricated after sulfo-selenization process using a 65 nm CdS buffer, a 40 nm intrinsic ZnO, a 400 nm Al doped ZnO, and Al/Ni top metal contact. Effects of sulfur to selenium (S/Se) compositional ratio on the microstructure, crystallinity, electrical properties, and cell efficiencies have been studied using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscope, I-V measurement system, solar simulator, quantum efficiency measurement system, and time resolved photoluminescence spectrometer. Our fabricated Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 thin film solar cell shows the best conversion efficiency of 9.24 % (Voc : 454.6 mV, Jsc : 32.14 mA/cm2, FF : 63.29 %, and active area : 0.433 cm2), which is the highest efficiency among Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 thin film solar cells prepared using sputter deposited metallic precursors and without using a toxic H2Se gas. Details about other experimental results will be discussed during the presentation.

뫼스바우어 분광 법과 x선 회절 측정으로 $(Fe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05})_7Se_8$을 연구하였다. $(Fe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05})_7Se_8$의 결정구조는 NiAs 구조의 triclinic superstructure를 나타내었다. 반면에 $Fe_7Se_8$의 결정구조는 orthohexagonal structure를 나타내었다. 125 K 부근에서 $(Fe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05})_7Se_8$의 전기사중극자 분열 값의 갑작스러운 변화는 triclinic superstructure를 갖는 $Fe_7Se_8$에서 보고된 점진적인 스핀 회전 전이와는 대조적으로 갑작스럽게 스핀 회전이 발생함을 보여주었다. 실온에서 측정된 $(Fe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05})_7Se_8$의 이성질체 이동 값은 0.5~0.69 mm/s를 나타냈는데 이 값으로부터 $A_1$, $A_2$, B, C 4개의 모든 사이트가 $Fe^{2+}$ 상태임을 알 수 있었다.

Ag/Cu층에서 발생하는 misfit 전위를 분석하기 위하여, EAM기법을 활용한 나노인덴테이션 해석을 수행하였다. N$\'{o}$se-Hoover 서모스텟 조건에 의거하여, 2-5nm 정도의 두께를 갖는 필름층에 구형 인덴터로 압입하였다. 해석결과는 misfit 전위에 대한 상대적인 압입위치가, 4nm이하의 필름에 대하여 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 전위에 의한 슬립 발생할 때 탄성에너지 변화는 Ag/Cu의 연화의 중요한 변수로 작용하며, 각각의 경우에 대하여 임계필름두께에 대해서도 고찰하였다.

셀레늄은 인체의 필수영양소로써 환경에서 또한 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 원소이다. 셀레늄은 자연수에서 주로 +4가의 selenite ($SeO_3^{-2}$)와 +6가의 selenate ($SeO_4^{2-}$)로 용해되어 있는데, 이들의 독성 및 화학적 성질은 매우 다르다. 따라서 자연수에서 셀레늄의 거동을 이해하기 위해서는 이들 두 화학종을 분리하는 것이 필요하다. 기존에 알려진 알루미나 충전 컬럼과 이온크로마토그래피를 이용한 selenite와 selenate의 분리방법들은 silicate 때문에 자연수에 직접 적용하기가 곤란하였다. 따라서 마그네타이트가 용액의 pH에 따라 selenite와 selenate를 흡착하는 정도가 다르므로 마그네타이트가 충전된 컬럼을 이용하여 이들의 분리를 수행한 결과, 성공적으로 분리할 수 있었다. 아울러 자연수에 존재하는 다른 음이온들 중에서 silicate는 selenite의 흡착을 방해하므로 silicate의 농도를 고려하여 충분한 양의 마그네타이트를 사용하여야만 한다.

With an approach to study the anti-tumor effects and mechanism of selenium compound, we investigated the anti-tumor activity and mechanism of $Na_5SeV_5O_{18}{\cdot}3H_2O$ (NaSeVO) in K562 cells. The results showed that $0.625{\sim}20\;mg/L$ NaSeVO could significantly inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells in vitro in a time- and concentration-dependent manner as determined by microculture tetrazolium (MTT) assay, the IC50 values were 14.41 (4.45-46.60) and 3.45 (2.29-5.22) mg/L after 48 hand 72 h treatment with NaSeVO respectively. In vivo experiments demonstrated that i.p. administration of 5, 10 mg/kg NaSeVO exhibited an significant inhibitory effect on the growth of transplantation tumor sarcoma 180 (S180) and hepatoma 22 (H22) in mice, with inhibition rate 26.8% and 58.4% on S180 and 31.3% and 47.4% on H22, respectively. Cell cycle studies indicated that the proportion of G0/G1 phase was increased at 2.5 mg/L while decreased at 10 mg/L after treatment for 24, 48 h. Whereas S phase was decreased at 2.5-5 mg/L and markedly increased at 10 mg/L after treatment for 48 h. After treatment for 24 h, 10 mg/L NaSeVO also markedly increased S and G2/M phases. Take together, the result clearly showed that NaSeVO markedly increased S and G2/M phases at 10 mg/L. The study of immunocytochemistry showed that the expression bcl-2 is significantly inhibited by 10 mg/L NaSeVO, and bax increased. Morphology observation also revealed typical apoptotic features. NaSeVO also significantly caused the accumulation of $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the reduction of pH value and mitochondrial membrane potential in K562 cells as compared with control by confocal laser scanning microscope. These results suggest that NaSeVO has anti-tumor effects and its mechanism is attributed partially to apoptosis induced by the elevation of intracellular $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$ and ROS concentration, and a reduction of pH value and mitochondria membrane potential (MMP).
