동시증착법으로 성장한 CuIn3Se5 박막의 구조 및 광학적 특성을 XRD, SEM 광투과 및 광반사 측정으로부터 조사하였다. XRD 측정에 의하면 CuIn3Se5 는 정열된 Cu 빈자리와 Cuqls자리에 in으로 대 치되는 defect chalcopyrite 구조임이 확인디었다. 또한 광흡수 측정으로부터 CuIn3Se5 는 금지대내에서 직접 전이에 의한 광흡수 특성을 보여주며 이때 에너지띠 간격은 1.27ev 이었다. CuIn3Se5 박막에 대한 연구결과들은 CuInSe2 의 결과들과 비교하여 논의하였다.

The structures and metal affinities of the binding configurations of $Cu^{+}$ and $Cu^{2+}$ to proline have been investigated using the hybrid three-parameter Density Functional Theory(DFT/B3LYP). We found that the metal-proline bonding and the energy ordering of several conformers were very different in $Cu^{+}$-proline and $Cu^{2+}$-proline. For $Cu^{+}$-proline, the ground state structure was found to have a bidentated coordination in which $Cu^{+}$ was coordinated to the carbonyl oxygen and imino group nitrogen of neutral proline. On the contrary, the ground state structure of $Cu^{2+}$-proline involves chelation between the two oxygens of the carboxylate group in a zwitterionic proline. The metal ion affinity of proline of the most stable $Cu^{+}$-proline complex was calculated as 76.0 kcal/mol at 6-311++G(d,p) level, whereas the $Cu^{2+}$ ion affinity of proline was calculated as 258.5 kcal/mol.

Single phase CuInS$_2$ thin film with the highest diffraction peak (112) at diffraction angle (2$\theta$) of 27.7$^{\circ}$ and the second highest diffraction peak (220) at diffraction angle (2$\theta$) of 46.25$^{\circ}$ was well made with chalcopyrite structure at substrate temperature of 70 $^{\circ}C$, annealing temperature of 25$0^{\circ}C$, annealing time of 60 min. The CuInS$_2$ thin film had the greatest grain size of 1.2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and Cu/In composition ratio of 1.03. Lattice constant of a and c of that CuInS$_2$ thin film was 5.60 $\AA$ and 11.12 $\AA$ respectively. Single phase CuInS$_2$ thin films were accepted from Cu/In composition ratio of 0.84 to 1.3. P-type CuInS$_2$ thin films were appeared at over Cu/In composition ratio of 0.99. Under Cu/In composition ratio of 0.96, conduction types of CuInS$_2$ thin films were n-type. Also, fundamental absorption wavelength, the absorption coefficient and optical energy band gap of p-type CuInS$_2$ thin film with Cu/In composition ratio of 1.3 was 837 nm, 3.0x10 $^4$ $cm^{-1}$ / and 1.48 eV respectively.

Annealing of $Cu(B)/Ti/SiO_2$ in vacuum has been carried out to investigate the effects of Ti underlayer on microstructure in $Cu(B)/Ti/SiO_2$ structures. For comparison, $Cu(B)/Ti/SiO_2$ structures was also annealed in vacuum. Three different temperature dependence of Cu growth can be seen in $Cu(B)/Ti/SiO_2$; B precipitates- pinned grain growth, abnormal grain growth, normal grain growth. The Ti underlayer having a strong affinity for B atoms reacts with the out-diffused B to the Ti surface and forms titanium boride at the Cu-Ti interface. The formation of titanium boride acts as a sink for the out-diffusion of B atoms. The depletion of boron in grain boundaries of Cu films, as results of the rapid diffusion of B along the grain boundaries and the insufficient segregation of B to the grain boundaries, induces grain boundaries to migrate and causes the abnormal grain growth. The increased bulk diffusion coefficient of B within Cu grains can be responsible for the normal grain growth occurring in the annealed $Cu(B)/Ti/SiO_2\;at\;600^{\circ}C$. In contrast, the $Cu/SiO_2$ structures show only the abnormal growth of grains and their sizes increasing as the temperature increases above $400^{\circ}C$.

A controlled column study using elution development and miscible displacement was conducted to assess heavy metal transport characteristics in sludge-untreated soil ("Control"), soil treated with an equivalent of sludge 50 and 100 dry ton $ha^{-1}$ ("Soil-Sludge mixtures"), and sewage sludge ("Sludge"). The elution curves (ECs) and the breakthrough curves (BTCs) for Cd, Cu and Zn in sludge 50 and 100 dry ton $ha^{-1}$ treated soils are not different from the sludge-untreated soil, The ECs for Cd, Cu and Zn in soil column which received a pulse of 10 mg of each Cd, Cu and Zn were similar to those of Cd, Cu and Zn in soil column which had no Cd, Cu and Zn added, but were very different with the ECs for Cd, Cu and Zn in soil column which received a pulse of Cd, Cu and Zn containing 50 mg of each metal. On the other hand, the BTCs for Cd, Cu and Zn in soil columns that were eluted with 500 and $1000mg\;L^{-1}$ of mixed solution of Cd, Cu and Zn were similar to each other, but were distinctly different with the BTCs for Cd, Cu and Zn in soil column that was eluted with $100mg\;L^{-1}$ mixed solution of Cd, Cu and Zn. Sewage sludge applied at rates of 50 and 100 dry ton $ha^{-1}$ did not affect the transport characteristics of this calcareous soil. The apparent mobility for this sludge treated soil and sludge is: Cd >Zn>Cu. The transport characteristics of Cd and Zn are similar to each other, but are different from those of Cu.

has been synthesized using the layered organic-inorganic hybrids, Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O as a precursor. Cubic Cu2O is synthesized by reducing Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O with glucose in water at 75oC. The effects of precursor and glucose are investigated. The structure of Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O plays an important role in preparing the uniform size of Cu2O.

Mo-N based coatings have been studied for enhancing mechanical characteristics of thin films. In the case of Mo-X-N coatings, the microstructure and mechanical properties can be affected by the addition of the third element. In this work, Mo-Cu-N coatings were successfully fabricated with varying the Cu content from 4.5 at% to 31 at% by the co-sputtering method. Thus, properties of the coatings were analyzed by EDS, SEM, XRD, AFM, nano indentation and scratch test techniques. From observed results, MoxN bonds were made in a nitrogen atmosphere and Cu elements were present at grain boundaries. In addition, coatings with the Cu content above 14 at% had a Cu3N peak in the XRD results. Thus, it is suggested that the formation of Cu3N phase affected the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo-Cu-N coatings. Mechanical properties of Mo-Cu-N coatings were found to be relatively better at Cu content of about 12 at%.

To investigate an effect of phase separation on precipitation characteristics of CuCl nanocrystals in CuCl doped nonlinear optical glasses, borosilicate glass systems with 9 different compositions with ~2wt% of CuCl were selected and CuCl doped glasses were prepared by melting and precipitation method. Microstructural properties of the CuCl doped glasses were analyzed by optical absorption spectroscopy, acid elution test, TEM, and EDXS. While phase separation did not occur in Glass A~D, interconnected and droplet microstructures due to phase separation were found in Glass E, F and Glass G~I, respectively. In the particular composition of the matrix glasses in this study, the precipitation of the CuCl particles was observed in the phase separable glasses, not in phase non-separable glasses. The CuCl particles were precipitated in both silica-rich phase region and boronrich phase region of the glass matrix. In the case of 7.7Na2O-36.6B2O3-52.7SiO2(mole%) glass, the larger CuCl particles than those in the silica-rich phase region were observed in the boron-rich phase region.

The objective of this experimental was to investigate the effect of dietary Cu-sulfate and Cu-soy proteinate on productive performance and small intestinal microflora. A total 1,000 Hy-Line Brown laying hens (35 weeks old) were randomly allotted to 1 of 5 dietary treatments: Control, Cu-sulfate 50, 100 (50, 100 ppm Cu supplementation as Cu-sulfate) and Cu-SP 50, 100 (50, 100 ppm Cu supplementation as Cu-soy proteinate). Each treatment was replicated 4 times with fifty birds per replication, housed in 2 birds cages. Fifty birds units were arranged according to randomized block design. Feeding trial lasted 5 weeks under 16L : 8D lighting regimen. Hen day egg production was significantly (P<0.05) higher in Cu treated groups than control. Feed intake, broken and shell-less egg production was not significantly influenced by treatment. Eggshell color, eggyolk color, haugh unit, and eggshell thickness were not significantly influenced by treatment. However, eggshell strength was significantly (P<0.05) greater in Cu treated groups than control. Concentration of copper of liver was significantly (P<0.05) greater in Cu treated groups than control. Concentration of zinc and iron of liver were not influenced by treatments. Population of Cl. perfrigens and Lactobacilli in the small intestinal content were significantly (P<0.05) influenced by treatments. Population of Cl. perfrigens decreased and that of Lactobacilli increased in the Cu supplement groups. In conclusion, dietary Cu sulfate and Cu-soy proteinate similarly improves egg production, eggshell strength, and favors intestinal microbial population of laying hens.
