The effects of annealing after deposition on the magnetic and magneto-optical properties of MnSbPt thin films prepared by rf sputtering were investigated. The MnSbPt alloy thin films were annealed in a vacuum with $10^{-5}$ Torr and the air, respectively, as a function of temperature and time. The films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours was found to have the highest value of the saturation magnetization. The films annealed in the air did not show any thermal degradations, which indicates their chemical stability for the magneto-optical recording process. It was revealed that the $Mn_{43}Sb_{46}Pt_{11}$ films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 4hours in a vacuum with $10^{-5}$ Torr exhibit high Kerr rotation angle of $0.8^{\circ}$ for the incident wavelength of 550nm, which is ascribed to the increase of the volume ratio of Clb phase. However, similar to the PtMnSb alloy thin films, these films are still horizontally magnetized and have the coercive field less than 400 Oe.

Method for separation and quantification of methylxanthins, catechins, and theaflavins in Korean commercial teas (green, oolong, and black teas) was developed using reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). After extraction with hot water, tea compounds were separated on Inertsil ODS-3v $(5\;{\mu}m)$ column, eluted with gradient of 7% acetonitrile and 93% of 20 mM phosphate buffer mixture for 7 min. Column effluent was monitored at 270 nm. This technique was effective for analyses of m methylxanthins, catechins, and theaflavins in teas and biological samples. In green and oolong teas, two kinds of methylxanthins and 7 of catechins were identified, whereas 4 theaflavins were only identified in black tea. Among seven catechins in green and oolong teas, EGCG showed highest amount, whereas ECG was highest in black tea. (theaflavins were found only in black teas) In all teas, theobromine content was lower than that of caffeine.

A chromatographic method for the determination of imazapyr, a non-selective herbicide, in agricultural commodities was developed to use safety control of pesticide residue on crops, and was fully validated as an official method for residue analysis. Agricultural commodities, mandarin (fruit), hulled rice (cereal grains), pepper (vegetables), potato (potatoes) and soybean (beans) were extracted with methanol and partitioned with dichloromethane to remove the interference obtained from sample extracts, adjusting pH to 2.5 by 4N hydrochloric acid. Finally, they were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to UV detector (HPLC-UVD). The developed method had the linearity in the range of test concentrations with coefficients of determination ($r^2$) more than 0.99. Recovery studies were carried out at three concentration levels (LOQ, 10LOQ, and 50LOQ) performing five replicates at each level. Recoveries were ranged between 72.1 to 108.0%, with relative standard deviations less than 10%. A consistent recovery was determined according to the CODEX guidelines (CAC/GL40, 2003). Finally, LC/MS with selected ion monitoring was also applied to confirm the suspected residues of imazapyr in agricultural samples. This developed method for determination of imazapyr residues in agricultural commodities. can be used as an official method.

The hair nourisher products are used for prevention of hair loss and classified as quasi-drug in Korea. As concerns about hair loss has been increased, the demand for hair nourisher products has been growing. It is difficult to analyze their main ingredients because they contain various ingredients including natural plant extracts, vitamins, preservatives and exfoliators. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate simultaneous analytical methods of active ingredients in hair nourisher products such as nicotinamide, tocopherol, salicylic acid, dexpanthenol and benzyl nicotinate by HPLC. The active ingredients were separated on a $C_{18}$ column by using acetonitrile/phosphate buffer as a mobile phase, and detected at UV 220, 270 and 300 nm. The calibration curve showed linearity in the range of $12.5{\sim}800\;{\mu}g/mL$ and the recoveries were 97.3 ~ 103.5 % (RSD 0.9 ~ 2.8 %) in liquid matrix and 101.9 ~ 115.9 % (RSD 0.7 ~ 7.7 %) in shampoo matrix. Validated method was applied to hair nourisher products obtained from distribution market. Fortunately, all samples met their criteria. This study might be expected to provide the method for determining active ingredients in hair nourisher products and lead to promote a rapid market entry.

최근 주목 받고 있는 산화아연(ZnO)은 레이저 다이오드, 가스 센서, 자외선 센서, 투명전극 등으로 다양하게 사용될 수 있어 연구개발이 폭 넓게 이루어지고 있는 상황이다. 특히, 3.3 eV의 direct bandgap 에너지를 가지고 있는 ZnO은 현재 자외선센서로 많이 적용되고 있는 물질인 GaN계열을 대체할 수 있는 유망한 물질로 주목 받고 있다. 공기중의 산소나 수분의 표면반응에 의한 자외선 측정을 하는 ZnO을 나노선으로 만들게 되면, 표면대비 부피비가 박막에 비해 급격히 증가하기 때문에 민감도가 커지고 반응시간이 짧아지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 자외선센서의 민감도와 반응성을 향상시키기 위해 전기화학적 합성법을 통해 ZnO의 박막과 나노선을 제조하였다. 사진공정을 통해 3 ${\mu}m$의 간격을 가진 금(Au) 전극을 만든 후, 전기화학적 합성법을 통해 아연이온이 포함된 용액에서 정전류를 흘려보내 아연 또는 ZnO을 증착시킬 수 있었다. 첫 번째로 ZnO을 양쪽 Au 전극에서 동시에 증착하여 두 박막이 접합하였고, 두 번째는 100nm의 지름을 가진 Ni 나노선를 전극 양쪽에서 자석을 통해 자기장을 형성해 정렬시키고 ZnO을 Au 전극과 Ni 나노선에 증착한 후, Ni 나노선를 산화시킴으로써, ZnO 나노구조를 형성하였다. 세 번째로는 Au 전극 양쪽에 아연을 전기화학적 합성을 하여 박막으로 증착하고 고온에서 산화과정을 통해 100 nm 이하의 지름을 가진 ZnO 나노선를 형성하였다. 이렇게 만들어진 세가지 구조의 ZnO의 나노구조와 결정성은 주사전자현미경과 X선 회절 분석기를 통해 측정하였으며, 자외선에 대한 민감도와 반응성은 365 nm의 파장을 가진 자외선발생기와 소스미터장치를 통해 측정하였다. 박막에서 100 nm 이하의 지름을 가진 ZnO 나노선로 갈 수록 자외선에 대한 민감도와 반응성이 향상되었다.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of the physical and chemical factors on the absorbance when the chemical component of food was rapidly and effectively analyzed with near infrared reflection spectrophotometer. The absorbance was measured within the wavelength range of 1100 and 2500m and at the various sample temperatures. The absorbance was greatly increased with the rising sample temperature. When the grinding time of samples prolonged, the absorbance was decreased. The absorption peaks occurring in the near infrared spectra of meat, meat protein, pork fat and water were attributed to the overtone and combination vibration of C-H, N-H, O-H or C=O bond within the macromolecules of each sample. The absorbance was lower for meat protein than other meat components. Pork fat was characterized by the ${\cdot}CH_2{\cdot}$ absorption peak at the wavelength of 1700 and 2300 nm and water by the relatively high absorption peak at the wavelength of 1450 and 1930 nm. As a result, the absorbance of near infrared reflection spectrum of meat was affected mainly by fat and water in meat.

A rapid and very sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography/atmospheric-pressure chemical-ionization mass spectrometry method to detect ethylenethiourea (ETU) fungicide residues in fruits was developed. Methylene chloride was used as the surface extraction solvent for the target component. Recovery rates improved when cysteine hydrochloride and sodium carbonate were added to product prior to fortification. The limits of detection and quantification were approximately 0.006 and 0.02 mg/kg, respectively, from mandarin oranges. Recoveries from mandarin oranges, oranges, bananas, and pears, spiked in the range of 0.05-0.5 mg/kg, averaged 80-100%. The proposed method was used to monitor the presence of ETU in commercial fruits purchased from different markets in Seoul, Korea. ETU was found in four orange peels and in three mandarin orange peel samples. The highest ETU residue levels were $73.6{\mu}g/kg$ and $29.8{\mu}g/kg$.

중적외선 영역 ($3{\sim}5\;{\mu}m$)은 공기 중에 존재하는 이산화탄소나 수증기에 의해 흡수가 일어나지 않기 때문에 군사적으로 중요한 파장 영역이며, 야간에 적을 탐지하는데 응용되고 있다. InSb는 77 K에서 중적외선 파장 흡수에 적합한 밴드갭 에너지 (0.228 eV)를 갖고 있으며, 다른 화합물 반도체와 달리 전하 수송자 이동도 (전자: $10^6\;cm^2/Vs$, 정공: $10^4\;cm^2/Vs$)가 매우 빠르기 때문에 적외선 화상 감지기 재료로 매우 적합하다. 또한 현재 중적외선 영역대에서 널리 사용되는 HgCdTe (MCT)와 대등한 소자 성능을 나타냄과 동시에 낮은 기판 가격, 소자의 제작 용이성 때문에 MCT를 대체할 물질로 주목 받고 있다. 하지만, 기판과 절연막의 계면에 존재하는 결함 때문에 에너지 밴드갭 내에 에너지 준위를 형성하여 높은 누설 전류 특성을 보인다. 따라서 InSb 적외선 소자의 구현을 위하여 고품질의 절연막의 연구가 필수적이라고 할 수 있겠다. 절연막의 특성을 알아보기 위해, n형 InSb 기판에 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착법 (PECVD)을 이용하여 $SiO_2$, $Si_3N_4$를 증착하였으며, 증착 온도를 $120^{\circ}C$에서 $240^{\circ}C$까지 $40^{\circ}C$ 간격으로 변화하여 증착온도가 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보았다. 절연막과 기판의 계면 특성을 분석하기 위하여 77 K에서 커패시턴스-전압 (C-V) 분석을 하였으며, 계면 트랩 밀도는 Terman method를 이용하여 계산하였다 [1]. $Si_3N_4$를 증착하였을 경우, $120{\sim}240^{\circ}C$의 증착 온도에서 $2.4{\sim}4.9{\times}10^{12}\;cm^{-2}eV^{-1}$의 계면 트랩 밀도를 가졌으며, 증착 온도가 증가할수록 계면 트랩 밀도가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 모든 증착 온도에서 flat band voltage가 음의 전압으로 이동하였다. $SiO_2$의 경우 $120{\sim}200^{\circ}C$의 증착온도에서 $7.1{\sim}7.3{\times}10^{11}\;cm^{-2}eV^{-1}$의 계면 트랩 밀도 값을 보였으나, $240^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 계면 트랩밀도가 $12{\times}10^{11}\;cm^{-2}eV^{-1}$로 크게 증가하였다. $SiO_2$ 절연막을 사용함으로써, $Si_3N_4$ 대비 약 25% 정도 낮은 계면 트랩 밀도를 얻을 수 있었으며, 모든 증착 온도에서 양의 전압으로 flat band voltage가 이동하였다. 두 절연막에 대한 계면 트랩의 원인을 분석하기 위하여 XPS 측정을 진행하였으며, 깊이에 따른 조성 분석을 하였다. 본 실험에서 최적화된 $SiO_2$ 절연막을 이용하여 InSb 소자의 pn 접합 연구를 진행하였다. Be+ 이온 주입을 진행하고, 급속열처리(RTA) 공정을 통하여 p층을 형성하였다. -0.1 V에서 16 nA의 누설 전류 값을 보였으며, $2.6{\times}10^3\;{\Omega}\;cm^2$의 RoA (zero bias resistance area)를 얻을 수 있었다.
