In this work, porous silicon(PS) layer is used as a sensing material to detect organic gases. To do this, PS sensors with membrane structure are fabricated. The sensors were made by applying the technologies of membrane formation by anisotropic etching of silicon, and PS layer formation by anodization in HF solution. From fabricated sensors, current-voltage (I-V) curves were measured against ethanol (called alcohol), methanol and acetone gases evaporated from 0.1 to 0.5% solution concentrations at $36^{\circ}C$. As the result, all curves showed rectifying behavior due to a diode structure between Si and PS, and the conductance of sensor devices increased largely with the organic solution concentration at high voltage of 5V.

In this work, porous silicon (PS) layer is investigated as a sensing material to detect organic vapors such as ethanol (called alcohol), methanol, and acetone in low concentrations. To do this, PS sensors were fabricated. They have a membrane structure and comb-type electrodes were used to detect the change of electrical resistance effectively. PS layer on Si substrates was formed by anodization in HF solution of 25%. From fabricated sensors, current-voltage (Ⅰ-Ⅴ) curves were measured for gases evaporated from 0.1 to 0.5% organic solution concentrations at 36$\^{C}$. As the result, all curves showed rectifying behavior due to a diode structure between Si and the PS layer. The conductance of most sensors increased largely at high voltage of 5V, but the built-in potential on the measured Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve was lowered inversely by the adsorption effect of the organic vapors with high dipole moment.

SnO2를 모물질로 한 반도체 가스 검지소자를 제조하고 고 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 제조된 소자는 프로판가스, 일산화탄소, 알콜 및 아세톤 가스등에 대해 우수한 감도특성을 가졌으며 특히 프로판가스에 대해 가장 민감한 반응을 보였다. SnO2에 PdCl2또는 SnO2를 약 0.3 wt.% 정도 침첨가 했을때 가스에 대한 감도는 순수한 SnO2의 경우보다 향상되었다. 전기전도도 대 가스농도의 특성은 소자 소성온도, 소자 온도 및 소자 재료 반죽시 사용된 용액의 농도에 따라 변화하였다.

Nowadays, most major automobile manufacturers are very interested, and actively involved, in developing driver alcohol detection system for safety (DADSS) that serves to prevent driving under the influence. DADSS measures the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) from the driver's breath and limits the ignition of the engine of the vehicle if the BAC exceeds the reference value. In this study, to optimize the sensor array of the DADSS, we selected sensors by using three different methods, configured the sensor arrays, and then compared their performance. The Wilks' lambda, stepwise elimination and filter method (using a principal component) were used as the sensor selection methods [2,3]. We compared the performance of the arrays, by using the selectivity and sensitivity as criteria, and Sammon mapping for the analysis of the cluster type of each gas. The sensor array configured by using the stepwise elimination method exhibited the highest sensitivity and selectivity and yielded the best visual result after Sammon mapping.

저비용과 휴대성을 고려한 알코올 경보기의 제작을 위해 동작온도가 낮고 감도가 높은 반도체 가스 센서를 제작하였다. $Fe_2O_3$에 금속 산화물인 $MoO_3$, $V_2O_5$, $TiO_2$, 그리고 CdO 등을 첨가하여 스크린 프린팅법을 이용하여 센서를 제작하였다. 센서의 전기적 안정성을 위하여 질소 분위기에서 $700^{\circ}C$, 2시간 동안 열처리를 하였다. 알코올, 탄화수소계 가스와 담배연기 등을 사용하여 센서의 가스 감도를 조사하였다. $V_2O_5$를 첨가한 센서가 알코올 가스 1,000 ppm에 대해서 약 $80{\sim}90%$의 감도를 보이며, 타 가스에 대한 선택성도 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 제작된 센서와 PIC-chip을 사용하여 휴대 가능한 경보기를 제작할 수 있었다.

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing system, which belonged to a family of thin film refractometry-based sensors, was fabricated to measure the alcohol contents in alcoholic beverages. In this study, a SPR owe was obtained by a photodiode array with 128 pixels and transformed into a refractive index which was calculated by means of the first moment of values below a baseline of 0.85. When the sensing system was applied to Soju, Cheonju, Igwaduju and Tacju highly linear relationships between the refractive index by SPR and the contents of alcohol were obtained. That is, the coefficients of determination in their linear models were 0.992, 0.933, 0.918 and 0.954, respectively. Meanwhile, the effect of sample preparations on the accuracy of measurement was analyzed. As for Soju and Tacju, the best calibration equations were obtained when no sample preparation was applied. The best calibration models for measurement of Cheonju and Igwaduju were obtained through the samples filtered by $C_{18}$ disks.

This study compared dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods for the development of nanofiber-based E-textile using polypyrrole. Nanofiber webs were fabricated by electrospinning an aqueous poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solution. Subsequently, the PVA nanofiber web underwent thermal treatment to improve water resistance. Dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods were used to deposit polypyrrole on the surfaces of the nanofiber web. An FE-SEM analysis was also conducted to examine specimen surface characteristics along with EDS and FT-IR that analyzed the chemical bonding between polypyrrole and specimens. The line resistance and sheet resistance of the treated specimens were measured. Finally, an electrocardiogram (ECG) was measured with textile sensors made of the polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs. The polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating dissolved in the dip-coating solution and indicated damage to the nanofibers. However, in the case of in situ polymerization, polypyrrole nanoparticles were deposited on the surface and inter-web structure of the PVA nanofiber web. The resistance measurements indicated that polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by in situ polymerization with an average sheet resistance of 5.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating showed an average sheet resistance of 57.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofibers fabricated by in situ polymerization showed a lower line and sheet resistance; in addition, they detected the electrical activity of the heart during ECG measurements. The electrodes made from polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs by in situ polymerization showed the best performance for sensing ECG signals among the evaluated specimens.

Sensor nodes in ubiquitous sensor networks require autonomous replacement of deteriorated gas sensors with reserved sensors, which has led us to develop an encapsulation technique to avoid poisoning the reserved sensors and an autonomous activation technique to replace a deteriorated sensor with a reserved sensor. Encapsulations of $In_2O_3$ nanoparticles with poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as gas barrier layers are reported. The EVOH or PVDF films are used for an encapsulation of $In_2O_3$ as a sensing material and are effective in blocking $In_2O_3$ from contacting formaldehyde (HCHO) gas. The activation process of $In_2O_3$ by removing the EVOH through heating is effective. However, the thermal decomposition of the PVDF affects the property of the $In_2O_3$ in terms of the gas reactivity. The response of the sensor to HCHO gas after removing the EVOH is 26%, which is not significantly different with the response of 28% in a reference sample that was not treated at all. We believe that the selection of gas barrier materials for the encapsulation and activation of $In_2O_3$ should be considered because of the ill effect the byproduct of thermal decomposition has on the sensing materials and other thermal properties of the barrier materials.

IoT는 관련 기술의 발전으로 인해 사용범위가 넓어졌으며 다양한 서비스의 구현을 위한 수요를 충족하기 위해 다양한 센서가 개발되고 보급되었다. 센서를 이용한 알코올 농도의 측정은 음주운전 방지에 활용할 수 있으며 이를 가능하게하기 위해서는 정확한 알코올 농도를 측정하고 스마트폰에서 서버로 안전한 전송을 보장하여야 한다. 또한 측정한 알코올 농도 값을 음주 수준을 판단하는 기준값으로 변환하는 과정이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 센서를 사용하여 알코올 탐지기술을 적용한 음주측정기기에서 수집한 알코올 농도 정보를 보정 알고리즘을 통해 수치를 변환하고 원격지에 위치한 서버에 안전하게 전송하고 관리하는 시스템을 제안하고 구현한다. 원격지 서버와의 보안은 네트워크 계층의 SSL을 적용하여 데이터의 무결성과 기밀성을 보장하도록 하였으며 서버는 수신된 정보를 암호화하여 데이터베이스에 저장하여 추가적인 보안을 제공하도록 하였다. 알코올 농도 측정의 정확성, 통신의 효율성을 분석한 결과 에러 허용치 내에서 측정되고 전송되는 것을 확인하였다.
