본 연구에서는 은이 처리된 활성탄에 물리화학적 특성과 항균성에 대하여 연구하였다. 은이 처리된 활성탄에 대한 흡착등온곡선은 대표적인 Type-I 형태를 나타내었다. 출발물질의 비표면적은 $1440\;m^{2}/g$를 나타낸 반면에 금속이 처리된 활성탄은 $740~1110\;m^{2}/g$에 범위에 분포하였다. 또한 이들 시료에 대하여 t-plot, ${\alpha}_{s}$}-plot와 DR-plot로부터 미세 동공부피를 구하였다. SEM 연구로 부터 활성탄의 표면에 은이 균일한 분포와 상당히 균일한 동공 분포를 확인하였다. 그리고 최종적으로 은이 처리된 활성탄에 대하여 E. coli에 대한 항균효과에 대하여 토론하였다.

Producing solar grade silicon using an inexpensive method is a key factor in lowering silicon solar cell costs; the direct electrochemical reduction of SiO₂ in molten salt is one of the more promising candidates for manufacturing this silicon. In this study, SiO₂ granules were electrochemically reduced in molten CaCl₂ (850℃) using Ag-Si eutectic droplets that catalyze electrochemical reduction and purify the Si product. When Ag is used as the working electrode, the Ag-Si eutectic mixture is formed naturally during SiO₂ reduction. However, since the Ag-Si eutectic droplets are liquid at 850℃, they are easily lost during the reduction process. To minimize the loss of liquid Ag-Si eutectic droplets, a cylindrical graphite container working electrode was introduced and Ag was added separately to the working electrode along with the SiO₂ granules. The graphite container working electrode successfully prevented the loss of the Ag-Si eutectic droplets during reduction. As a result, the Ag-Si eutectic droplets acted as stable catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of SiO₂, thereby producing one-dimensional Si rods through a mechanism similar to that of vapor-liquid-solid growth.

$Bi_2O_3$를 첨가한 8M KOH용액에서 다결정 Ag전극의 전기화학적인 거동과 생성된 산화물들의 미세조직 변화를 분석하였다. $Bi_2O_3$를 첨가한 8M KOH용액에서 Ag 산화물뿐만 아니라 새로운 Ag-Bi-O화합물들이 생성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. Ag(I) 산화물 생성 전위 영역에서는 $Ag_2O$ 이외에, Ag-Bi-O 화합물이 핵 생성과 3D성장 과정에 의해서 생성되고, Ag(II)산화물 생성 전위 영역에서는 AgO뿐만 아니라 새로운 Ag-Bi-O화합물들이 핵 생성과 3D성장 과정에 의해서 생성되었다. Ag(I) 산화물 생성 전위에서 두 가지 형상의 Ag(I) 산화물이 생성되는 것을 SEM 조직에 의해 관찰하였다.

액상법에 의한 단분산 ZnS입자의 합성을 60~9$0^{\circ}C$에서 행하여, 반응조건이 ZnS입자의 형태에 미치는 효과를 검토했다. ZnS입자의 형태는 반응 시간의 경과와 더불어 단분산으로부터 다분산 혹은 응집체로 변화하였다. 반응 온도 60~9$0^{\circ}C$에서 초기 농도적이 중간값이고, 반응시간이 짧을 경우 입경 0.2~0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$의 구상 단분산 입자를 얻었다. 또한 Ag$_2$NO$_3$, EtOH용액, $0^{\circ}C$에서, Ag$_2$S에 의한 ZnS의 균일 피복이 가능하였다.

This paper describes a selective synthetic method of fabricating Ag nanowires by using a modified polyol process. To synthesize the Ag nanowire, an ethylene glycolic solution of silver nitrate and an ethylene glycolic solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone solution containing a small amount of organic oxidant, 1,4-benzoquinone, were slowly added to a hot ethylene glycol medium at $160^{\circ}C$ for 8 min using a syringe pump. The reaction mixtures were heated for an additional 45 min and cooled to room temperature. Finally, the silver nanomaterials were isolated from the mixture by centrifugation. The crystal structure of the nanomaterials was investigated by powder X-ray diffraction analyses, and their morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. A small amount of organic oxidant, 1,4-benzoquinone, played a significant role in controlling the morphology during crystal growth. Consequently, Ag nanowires rather than Ag nanoparticles were selectively obtained.

Earlier we have described new water-soluble Ag- and Zn-derivatives of tetrachloride meso-tetra (4-N-oxiethylpyridyl) porphyrin (TOEtPyP) as potential anticancer drugs. In this work the effect of one of these metal porphyrins, TOEtPyP Ag, on the cell population kinetics was studied in vitro using morphological and biochemical techniques. The results suggested that TOEtPyP Ag action consisted in the simultaneous suppression of the cell growth and activation of the cell death. About 40% of the cells were shown to die via apoptotic pathway. So, the porphyrin studied may be attributed to inducers of both necrotic and apoptotic processes. The results obtained support our previous assertion that TOEtPyP Ag may be considered as a potential chemotherapeutic agent.

To increase the high-density data storage, a new technique of Super-resolution near-field structure (Super-RENS) consisted of glass／SiN／Sb or AgOx／SiN has been proposed and investigated intensively as a promising structure for near-field ultrahigh-density optical storage. Hence it is important to determine the optical properties of AgOx by using ellipsometry. AgOx thin films were prepared by using magnetron sputtering technique while oxygen flow rate was varied, and the film growth of AgOx were monitored by using in situ ellipsometer. (omitted)

This work mainly focuses on the sintering behavior of the Cu-Sn alloy with the addition of Ag up to 4 wt% after pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) process for ultra-fast sintering. The microstructural evolution was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and density measurements. The mechanical properties were evaluated via measurements of transverse rupture strength (TRS) and Rockwell hardness. The mechanism during the sintering process has been discussed thoroughly, and the effect on porosity with the addition of the Ag is also correlated. The results showed that the growth of porosity progressed with the amount of Ag up to 2 wt%, and further addition of Ag leads reduction in porosity. The effect on mechanical properties were improved slowly as the amount of Ag increased.

We have investigated the deposition characteristics of (Ni0.8Fe0.2)20Ag80 thin films as a function of chamber pressure and nitrogen flow rate with scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM), XRD and $\alpha$-step. The deposition rate of these film is decreased with increasing the chamber pressure and the nitrogen flow rate. With raising the chamber pressure, the growth mode of thin film is changed from island growth to columnar one, which is probably due to energy of atom. Contrary, the nitrogen flow rate is raised, growth mode is changed from columnar to island one. According to the XRD patterns, the preferred orientation is inhibited as the nitrogen flow rate is kept above 10 sccm, but that is nearly independent on the chamber pressure. When the chamber pressure decrease or the nitrogen flow rate increase, phase separation into permoally and silver is occured.

In order to find an environment-friendly method to suppress astragal stem rot caused by the isolates of Rhizoctonia solani AG 1 and AG 4, we tested an antagonistic fungus Gliocladium virens G1 was evaluated as a biocontrol agent and estimated inorganic compounds and organic materials were tested for their effect of the disease suppression. G. virens G1 effectively inhibited mycelial growth in a dual culture and caused mycelial lysis in the culture filtrate. No adverse effect was observed when examined for seed germination and seedling growth. Promoted seedling growth was observed with the seed treatment. Seeds of astragal plant were germinated higher in the sterile soil than the natural soil. Of 14 inorganics tested, alum, aluminum sulfate and calcium oxide significantly suppressed the mycelial growth and sclerotial germination. Milled pine bark and oak sawdust also suppressed the mycelial growth. Soil amended with 1% of G. virens G1 composted with pine bark (w/v) significantly controlled astragal stem rot in the glasshouse experiments.
