본 연구에서는 황화납(PbS)과 황화카드뮴(CdS)을 감응물질로 하는 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 만들고 효율을 측정하였다. Sputter를 이용하여 고진공의 상태에서 산화아연(ZnO) film을 seed layer로 증착한 후 수열합성법으로 ZnO 나노선을 합성한다. 합성된 나노선을 successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) 법으로 PbS, CdS 양자점을 합성하고 이를 주사전자 현미경(SEM), X-선 회절(XRD)을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 PbS와 CdS의 co-sensitizer를 합성하고 diffused reflectance spectra (DRS)를 측정함으로써 넓은 범위의 광흡수도를 확인할 수 있었다. Co-sensitizer의 합성 방법을 달리하여 PbS/CdS를 합성한 후 각각의 효율을 측정해보고, 더 높은 효율을 내기 위한 방안에 대해 고찰하였다.

In order to recycle waste nickel-cadmium batteries, cadmium was selectively removed by ion substitution reaction so that cadmium and nickel could be separated efficiently. The electrode powder obtained by crushing the electrode in the waste nickelcadmium battery was leached with sulfuric acid. The cadmium in the nickel-cadmium solution was precipitated with cadmium sulfide by the addition of sodium sulfide. Ion substitution experiments were carried out under various conditions. At the optimum condition with pH = -0.1 and $Na_2S/Cd=2.3$ at room temperature, the residual Cd in the solution was about 100 ppm, and most of it was precipitated with CdS.

염료감응 태양전지는 실리콘 태양전지에 비해 단가가 낮고 반투명하며 친환경적 특성으로 차세대 태양전지로 주목을 받았으나 염료의 안정성의 문제와 특정 파장대의 빛만 흡수하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 양자구속 효과에 의해 크기에 따라 밴드갭 조절이 용이하여 다양한 파장대의 빛을 흡수 할 수 있는 양자점 감응태양전지가 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 하지만 양자점 감응 태양 전지의 활성층으로 사용되는 반도체 산화물인 이산화티타늄의 두께는 $13{\sim}18{\mu}m$로 짧은 확산거리로 인해 전하수집의 한계를 가지고 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해 인듐 주석 산화물 나노선을 합성하여 전자가 광전극에 직접유입이 가능하도록 해 빠른 전하이동 및 전하수집을 가능하게 한다. 인듐 주석 산화물 나노선은 증기수송 방법(VTM)을 이용하여 인듐 주석 산화물 유리 기판 위에 $5{\sim}30{\mu}m$ 길이로 합성하였다. 전해질과 전자가 손실되는 것을 방지하기 위해 원자층 증착법(ALD)을 이용하여 이산화 티타늄 차단층을 20 nm 두께로 코팅한 후 화학증착방법(CBD)을 이용하여 인듐 주석 산화물 나노선-이산화 티타늄 코어-쉘 구조를 만든다. 마지막으로 황화카드뮴, 카드늄셀레나이드, 황화아연을 증착시킨 후 다황화물 전해질을 이용하여 양자점 감응 태양전지를 제작하였다. 특성 평가를 위해 전계방사 주사전자현미경, X-선 회절, 고분해능 투과 전자 현미경을 이용하며 intensity modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS), intensity modulated voltage spectroscopy (IMVS)를 이용하여 전하수집 특성평가를 하였다.

This study was carried out to prepare information for the establishment of countermeasures for an area contaminated with minewaste from an old zinc mine at Kahak-long in Kwangmyong. Minewaste and bottom sediments from the streams in this area were sampled and were analyzed for Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn extracted with different solution. Total heavy metal contents in both minewaste and bottom sediments were fairly high. Cadmium and Zn contents in the minewaste and Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn contents in the bottom sediments extracted with 0.1 N HCl showed a much higher level than those in the background level of paddy soils and in the soils around the other metal mines regardless of the distance from the mine. Sulfide/residue forms of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn covered the highest portions for the minewaste. For bottom sediments, sulfide/residue forms of Cu and Zn formed the highest portions, whereas the contents of both carbonate and sulfide/residue forms of Cd and Pb were significant. The lower the pH of the extracting solutions, the more heavy metals extracted from both minewaste and bottom sediments.

II-V 족 화합물 반도체인 황화카드뮴(CdS)은 상온에서 2.42 eV의 밴드갭을 갖는 직접 천이형 물질로서 CdTe 또는 $CuInSe_2$와 같은 박막형 태양전지의 투과층(window layer)으로 널리 사용되고 있다. CdS 박막은 전자빔 증착법(e-beam evaporation), 화학용액증착법(chemical bath deposition), 열분해법(spray pyrolysis), 스퍼터링법(sputtering) 등으로 제작되고 있다. 이 중 스퍼터링법의 경우, 다른 증착법에 비해 조작이 간단하고 넓은 면적에서 균일한 박막을 증착할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 박막두께 조절이 용이하다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 증착된 CdS 박막의 기판온도 및 열처리 온도변화에 따른 구조적 및 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기판은 RCA 기법으로 세정된 Corning Eagle 2000 유리 기판을 사용하였다. 박막 공정은 초기 진공 $1{\times}10^{-6}Torr$ 상태에서 20 sccm의 Ar 가스를 주입하고 100 W의 RF 파워, 7 mTorr의 공정 압력에서 기판 온도를 $200^{\circ}C$부터 $500^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키면서 수행하였다. 증착된 CdS 박막은 질소 분위기의 가열로(furnace)를 이용해 $300-500^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 30분간 열처리되었다. 시료들의 표면 형상은 scanning electron microscope를 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer를 사용하여 400-1,000 nm 파장영역에서의 투과율을 측정하였다. 그리고 X-선 회절분석(X-Ray Diffraction)으로 결정구조를 조사하고 결정립 크기를 산출하였다.

The purpose of this study was to correlate between photoelectrochemcial hydrogen production rate and electron transfer with various types of metal doped $TiO_2$ nanotubes as photoanodes. In order to fabricate light sensitized photoanode, CdS, $WO_3$, and Pt were doped by electrodeposition method. As the results of experiments, the electron transfer was favorable from higher position to lower position of conduction band (CB). In consequence, the higher hydrogen production rate was as follows, CdS/$TiO_2$ (100 $umol/hr-cm^2$) > $WO_3/TiO_2$ (20 $umol/hr-cm^2$) > Pt/$TiO_2$ (10 $umol/hr-cm^2$). The surface characterizations exhibited that crystal structure, morphological and electrical properties of various metal depoed $TiO_2$ nanotubes by the results of SEM, TEM, XPS, and photocurrent measurements.

The objective of this study was to research the mineralogical characteristics and removal of heavy metals of tailings from Gum-poong mine. From the result of mineralogical analysis, there are several sulphide minerals such as chalcocite, aresenopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite and galena. Cd and Zn have a good positive correlation from the statistical relation between Cd and other heavy metals(Cu, Pb, Zn). Residual heavy metals(As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn) from the Gum-poong tailings were removed under the warning criteria from the result of froth flotation with K.A.X.(Potassium Amyl Xanthate) and Aerofloat 211.

This study was conducted to how the effect of lime and humic acid on cadmium availability and ie uptake by plant grown in contaminated paddy soils with heavy metal. The treatment levels of lime were 2.5 and 5.0 ton/ha and that of humic acid were 1 and 2%. The contents of 0.1N HCl extractable Cd were reduced with lime and humic acid and were negatively correlated with CEC as well as soil pH. The sequential extraction procedure was used to fractionate the heavy metals in soils into the designated from exchangeable (0.5 M $KNO_3$) water soluble ($H_2O$), organically bound (0.5 M NaOH), carbonate (0.05 M $Na_{2-}$ EDTA) and sulfide/residual (4 M $HNO_3$). In soil amended with 2.5 ton/ha lime and 1% humic acia che- mical forms of Cd at tillering stage were predominant exchangeable + water soluble extractable Cd, whereas that at harvesting stage were predominant carbonate + sulfide/residual extractable Cd. The exchangeable forms of Cd in soil with lime and humic acid were negatively correlated with soil pH during the harvesting period. Total absorbed Cd of paddy rice tended to occur in the order of root > stem > leaf > brown rice. Cd contents of brown rice with lime and humic acid treatment were 0.09 and 0.08 mg/kg, respectively. That were lower than control, 0.20 mg/kg. It could be that treatment of lime and humic acid in polluted soil by heavy metals would reduce the uptake of heavy metals by piano and be a temporary method of reclamation at the highly heavy Metal contaminated soils.

This study focused on the synthesis of the nickel hydroxide using ammonium sulfate in leaching solution from waste nickel-cadmium batteries. The effect of pH, temperature and the input amount of ammonium sulfate in leaching solution was investigated. The ammonium nickel sulfate with high purity was obtained in acidic leaching solution and the solution temperature of $60^{\circ}C$. The suitable molar ratio of the input amount of ammonium sulfate to nickel in solution is 2:1. The impurity about 1.4 at.% of Cd was included in the nickel hydroxide precipitates when ammonium nickel sulfate was used. At the process using sodium sulfide which precipitates the cadmium in solution, nickel and iron compounds were precipitated together.
