The optical absorption characteristics of glasses colored by CdS. CdSe, $CdS_{1-x}Se_x$,ZnS, and ZnSe microcrystallites have been studied with emphasis on changes of the cut-off wavelength. The sharpcut filters with various cut-off wavelengths were fabricated by controlling the composition and the heat-treatment temperature. The cut-off wavelength shifts due to the different heat-treatment temperatures for CdS. CdSe, ZnS, and ZnSe doped SK-16 glasses were found to be relatively small(~30 nm). However, by treating the CdS1,Se, doped SK-16 glasses with different x values at the same heattreatment temperature, it was possible to obtain the filters with various cut-off wavelengths(~130 nm) without losing the high extinction coefficients of the filters. The filter glasses with various cut-off wavelngths(~100 nm) and high extinction coefficiencts were also produced by treating the CdSe and $CdS_{0.5}Se_{0.5}$ doped ZK-1 glasses at different temperatures.

Photoelectrochemical deposition of CdZnSe thin films on the Se-modified Au electrode using electrochemical quartz crystal microgravimetry (EQCM) and voltammetry is described. Corrosion of pre-deposited Se electrodes by illumination at a fixed potential resulted in $Se^{2-}$ species, which was manifest from the EQCM frequency changes. $Se^{2-}$ species generated from the photocorrosion reacted with $Cd^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions in the electrolyte to form CdZnSe films on the Au electrode. The effect of electrolyte composition on the composition and band gap of CdZnSe films was studied in detail. Also, photoelectrochemistry, EDX, Raman spectroscopy were used for the characterization of CdZnSe thin films.

반도체 집적회로의 고집적화 및 고성능화를 위한 기본 소자(MOSFET)의 미세화 및 단위공정의 물리적 한계를 극복하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그 중 다양한 나노입자를 이용한 나노소자 제작 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 이러한 나노입자를 이용한 나노소자의 제작에 있어서 원하는 위치의 나노입자의 배열과 정렬의 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 자기조립특성을 가지는 DNA 분자와 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자들의 표면 기능화를 통해서 상호 결합시키는 실험을 하였다. DNA 분자를 형틀로 이용하여 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자를 선택적 배열하고 전자 소자화하기 위해서는 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자의 표면 기능화가 필수적이다. 이를 위하여 무극성인 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자들과 DNA 분자의 phosphate backbone의 음전하와의 경합 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 이들 나노입자의 표면을 양전하로 치환하는 실험을 수행하였다. Core 나노입자인 CdSe 나노입자를 제작한 다음에 CdSe 보다 높은 band gap을 가지고 lattice mismatch가 적은 ZnS 로 shell 층을 형성하는 2-step 방법을 이용하여 합성한 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자를 무극성 용매인 chloroform 용액 0.5 ml에 분산시키고 DMAET 0.3 ml 와 Methanol 0.1 mg/ml를 이용하여 리간드들을 바꿔주고 과잉된 리간드인 DMAET를 제거하기 위해 Methanol로 3차례 세척한 다음 증류수에 용해시키는 실험을 하였다. 나노입자 기능화 과정 이후 기능화 여부를 판단하기 위하여 FT-IR spectroscopy 와 zeta potential 측정을 통하여 나노입자 표면의 변화와 전위를 측정하였다.

Closely arranged CdSe and Zn doped CdSe vertical nanorod bundles were grown directly on FTO coated glass by using electrodeposition method. Structural analysis by XRD showed the hexagonal phase without any precipitates related to Zn. FE-SEM image showed end capped vertically aligned nanorods arranged closely. From the UV-vis transmittance spectra, band gap energy was found to vary between 1.94 and 1.98 eV due to the incorporation of Zn. Solar cell parameters were obtained by assembling photoelectrochemical cells using CdSe and CdSe:Zn photoanodes, Pt cathode and polysulfide (1M $Na_2S$ + 1M S + 1M NaOH) electrolyte. The efficiency was found to increase from 0.16 to 0.22 upon Zn doping. Electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) indicate that the charge-transfer resistance on the FTO/CdSe/polysulfide interface was greater than on FTO/CdSe:Zn/polysulfide. Cyclic voltammetry results also indicate that the FTO/CdSe:Zn/polysulfide showed higher activity towards polysulfide redox reaction than that of FTO/CdSe/polysulfide.

In order to find the structural characteristics of the thin films of group II-VI semiconductor compounds compared with those of powder materials, films were made of 4 powders of ZnS, CdS, CdSe, and CdTe(Aldrich), each with 99.99 % purity. For the ZnS/CdS multi-layers, the ZnS layer was coated over the CdS layer on an $AlO_x$ membrane, which served as a protective layer within a vacuum at the average speed of 1 ${\AA}$/sec. After studying the structures of the group II-VI semiconductor thin films by using X-ray spectroscopy, we found that the ZnS, ZnS/CdS, CdS, and CdSe films were hexagonal and exhibited some degree of preferred orientation. Also, the particles of the thin films of II-VI semiconductor compounds proved to be more homogeneous in size compared to those of the powder materials. These results were further verified through scanning electron microscopy(SEM), EDX analysis, and powder and thin film X-ray diffraction.

So many groups have been researching the green quantum dots such as InP, InP/ZnS for overcoming the semiconductor nanoparticles composed with heavy metals like as Cd and Pb so on. In spite of much effort to keep up CdSe quantum dots, it does not reach the good properties compared with CdSe/ZnS quantum dots. This quantum dot has improved its properties through the generation of core/shell CdSe/ZnS structure or core/multi-shell structures like as CdSe/CdS/ZnS and CdSe/CdS/ CdZnS/ZnS. In this research, we try to synthesize the InP multi-shell structure by the successiveion layer absorption reaction (SILAR) in the one pot. The synthesized multi-shell structure has improved quantum yield and photo-stability. To generate white light, highly luminescent InP multi-shell quantum dots were mixed with yellow phosphor and integrated on the blue LED chip. This InP multi-shell improved red region of the LEDs and generated high CRI.

ZnSe/CdSe/ZnSe single quantum wells with different well thickness were grown by hot wall epitaxy. The quantum well thicknesses were measured by TEM. The critical thickness of single quantum well layer was found to be about $9{\AA}$ from the intensities and the full-width at half maximum of photoluminescence(PL) spectra. When the thickness of quantum wells was less than the critical thickness, the Stoke's shift was confirmed from the comparison between PL and photoluminescence excitation spectra, and it may be due to the exciton binding energy. The PL peak energy dependence on the quantum well thickness was coincident with the theoretical values.

Core/shell CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized by a microfluidic reactor-assisted continuous reactor system. Photoluminescence and absorbance of synthesized CdSe/ZnS core/shell QDs are investigated by fluorescence spectrophotometry and online UV-Vis spectrometry. Three reaction conditions, namely; the shell coating reaction temperature, the shell coating reaction time, and the ZnS/CdSe precursor volume ratio, are combined in the synthesis process. The quantum yield of the synthesized CdSe QDs is determined for each condition. CdSe/ZnS QDs with a higher quantum yield are obtained compared to the discontinuous microfluidic reactor synthesis system. The maximum quantum efficiency is 98.3% when the reaction temperature, reaction time, and ZnS/CdSe ratio are $270^{\circ}C$, 10 s, and 0.05, respectively. Obtained results indicate that a continuous synthesis of the Core/shell CdSe/ZnS QDs with a high quantum efficiency could be achieved by isolating the reaction from the external environment.

1차원 나노 와이어는 나노 디바이스를 구현하는데 있어 중요한 요소로 연구되고 있다. 하지만 나노 와이어를 바람직한 위치에 선택적으로 배열하는 부분은 해결할 과제로 남아있다. DNA 분자가 가지고 있는 음의 전하를 띄는 phosphate backbone과 자기조립 특성은 이러한 문제점들을 해결할 수 있는 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 DNA 분자 형틀을 이용해서 CdSe/ZnS core-shell 나노입자의 pH 의 변화에 따른 표면 전위 변화를 이용하여 선택적 위치의 나노입자 배열을 통한 나노 와이어를 제작하는 연구를 하였다. 1-step 방법을 이용하여 합성한 CdSe/ZnS core-shell 나노입자를 무극성 용매인 chloroform 용액에 분산시키고 dimethylaminoethanethiol (DMAET) 를 이용하여 표면을 양전하로 치환하였다. 그리고 치환한 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자 용액에 HCl 을 이용해서 pH 7, 6, 5, 4로 변화를 주어 zeta potential 변화를 측정하였고 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) 코팅된 Si 기판에 ${\lambda}$-DNA를 정렬하고 이를 형틀로 이용하여 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자를 정렬하는 실험을 하였고 FE-SEM 을 이용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자의 pH 값이 작아지면서 전위가 커짐에 따라서 APTES 코팅된 기판 표면에 나노입자들이 반응하는 것보다 음전하를 띄는 ${\lambda}$-DNA의 phosphate backbone에 반응하는 것이 커짐에 따라 DNA 분자 형틀에 선택적으로 나노입자가 배열되는 것을 확인하였다.
