Polycrystalline $CuInS_2$ thin films were performed from S/In/Cu Stacked elemental layer(SEL) method with post annealing. In thin method, the thin films were annealed in Vacuum of $10^{-3}$ torr or in S ambient. $CuInS_2$ thin films were manufctured by using the evaporation and the annealing with vacuum quartz furnace of sulfurization process was used in the vacuum chamber to the substrate temperature on the glass substrate the annealing temperature and characteristics thereof were investigated. The physical properties of the thin film were investigated under various fabrication conditions including the substrate temperature annealing time by XRD, FE-SEM, and Hall measurement system.

Glasses in he system CuO-P$_2$O$_{5}$ -Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ -Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ -V$_2$O$_{5}$ were prepared by a press-quenching method on the copper plate. the glass-ceramics from these glasses were obtained by post-heat treatment, and the crystallization behavior and DC conductivities were determined. The conductivities of the glasses were range from 10$^{-6}$ s.$cm^{-1}$ / at room temperature ,but the conductivities of the glass-ceramics were 10$^{-3}$ s.$cm^{-1}$ / increased by 10$^3$ order. The crystalline product in the glass-ceramics was CuV$_2$O$_{6}$ . the crystal growth of CuV$_2$O$_{6}$ phase increased with heat-treatment conditions. The linear relationship between il($\sigma$T) and T$^{-1}$ suggested that the electrical conduction in the present glass-ceramics would be due to a small polaron hopping(SPH) mechanism.

Chalcopyrite based sollar cells have received much attention because of their tunable electronic and optical properties. As a typical ternary chalcopyrite material, $CuInS_2$ has been considered as one of the most popular and promising candidates as absorber materials for photovoltaic applications because of its high absorption coefficient and environmental consideration. In this study, $CuInS_2$ powders have been synthesized using polyol process of a mixture of copper nitrate, indium nitrate, and thiourea with various stoichiometric molar ratios in ethylene glycol at $196^{\circ}C$. As boiling time goes by, the color of metal ion mixed solutions were changed transparent green to dark green and finally turned to black by reduction of OH- radicals. The prepared powders were fully characterized using SEM, XRD. The particle shape of black colored powders showed sphere with about 50 nm in particle size compared to those with dark green colored powders showed irregular shape with about $1{\mu}m$ in particle size. The XRD results showed highly crystallized $CuInS_2$.

ZnS:Mn yellow phosphors doped with Cu for white light emitting diodes were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Photoluminescence excitation spectra originated from $Mn^{2+}$ were ranged from 450 nm to 500 nm. The yellow emission at around 580 nm was associated with $^4T_1{\rightarrow}^6A_1$ transition of $Mn^{2+}$ ions in ZnS:Mn,Cu phosphors. The highest photoluminescence intensity of the phosphors under 405 nm excitation was obtained at Cu concentration of 0.02 mol%.

CIGS 박막의 물성은 조성에 크게 영향을 받으며, 특히 박막 내 Cu/(In+Ga) 비는 매우 중요한 변수로서 태양전지 특성에 영향을 주게 된다. Cu(In1-xGax)Se2 박막의 전하농도 및 반도체로의 성격을 가장 명확하게 결정하는 조성비는 Cu/(In+Ga) 비이다. 태양전지와 같은 소자로 작용하기 위해서는 Cu/(In+Ga) 비가 1보다 작아야 한다. 고효율의 태양전지는 Cu/(In+Ga)조성이 0.85~0.95로 slightly Cu-poor가 되어야 만들어진다. 본 연구에서는 Cu조성에 따른 CIGS 박막의 구조적, 전기적 특성과 CIGS 태양전지 효율 특성에 관하여 연구하였다. 미세구조 분석결과 Cu 조성이 증가함에 따라 큰 결정립을 가지며 결정립의 성장이 고르게 되어 접합 형성을 좋게 하는 경향을 보였다. X선 회절 분석결과, Cu 함유량 비율이 증가하면서 <112>의 우선배향성에서 <220/204>으로 변화하였다. 그러나, Cu/(In+Ga) 비율이 1이상이 첨가됨에 따라 우선배향은 다시 <112>로 변화함을 알 수 있었다. EDX 분석결과 Ga/(In+Ga) 0.31, Cu/(In+Ga) 0.86의 비율일 때, Carrier density $1.49{\times}1016$ cm-3을 나타내었다. CIGS의 태양전지의 효율 측정결과 Voc=596mV, Jsc=37.84mA/cm2, FF=72.96%로 ${\eta}$=16.47%를 달성하였다.

Glasses in the system $CuO-P_2O_5-V_2O_5$ were prepared by a press-quenching method on the copper plate. The glass-ceramics from these glasses were obtained by post-heat treatment, and the crystallization behavior and DC conductivities were determined. The conductivities of the glasses were range from $10^{-6}s.Cm^{-1}$ at room temperature, but the conductivities of the glass-ceramics were $10^{-3}s.Cm^{-1}$ increased by $10^3$ order. The crystalline product in the glass-ceramics was $CuV_2O_6$. Heat-treatment conditions influenced the crystal growth of $CuV_2O_6$ and conductivity. The linear relationship between in (${\sigma}T$) and $T^{-1}$ suggested that the electrical conduction in the present glass-ceramics would be due to a small polaron hopping(SPH) mechanism.

Manganese, copper and chlorine-doped ZnS phosphors (ZnS:Mn,Cu,Cl) were synthesized through solid-state reaction. Manganese was added in the range of amount $1.4{\sim}5.3$ mol % to ZnS phosphors containing 0.2 or 1.0 mol % of copper and a small amount of chlorine. As-synthesized phosphors showed a spherical morphology with a mean size of ${\sim}20\;{\mu}m$ and structural properties of Wurtzite, which were identified by SEM and XRD, respectively. Optical properties of ZnS:Mn,Cu,Cl synthesized with various concentrations of activators were analysed by both of PL and EL spectra. Samples mainly showing only 580 nm-orange emission by 380 nm-UV excitation gave different EL spectra of blue, green, and orange emissions at 450, 480 and 580 nm, respectively, depending on concentrations of $Cu^{2+}$ and $Mn^{2+}$.

Various interlayer materials have been tested for active metal(Cusil ABA) brazing of Si3N4/S. S316 joint. In general multilayer joint had higher strength(80-150 MPa) and better reliability than monolayered one. The joint with Cu(0.2)/Mo(0.3)/Cu(0.2mm) interlayer showed the highest bending strength of abou 490 MPa and the joint with Cu(0.2)/Mo(0.3mm) interlayer the best reliability (14.6 Weibull modulus). The stresses distributed in joint materials during 4-point bending test were estimated by CAE von Mises analysis; the estimated stresses were In good agreement with the measured data. In multilayer joint Cu was though to reduce the residual stresses induced by the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the ceramic Mo and metal It apperared that a Cu/Mo was optimum interlayer material for Si3N4/S. S316 joint with high bending strength (420 MPa) and reliability. In addition the various shapes and types of compound were examined by EPMA in joining interface.

In order to study 2-formylpyridine dithiocarbohydrazones (DTCH's) and their Cu(II) chelates as potential effective antimicrobial agents, twelve new compounds of six DTCH's and their Cu(II) chelates were synthesized. The compositions of Cu(II) chelates were determined on the basis of the data obtained from elemental analysis, electronic and IR spectrophotometry, and other method. They were tested for antimicrobial activity in vitro against a gram-positive, seven gram-negative bacterial species and three fungal species. DTCH's exhibited high antibacterial activity against the gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, but low activity against the various gram negative bacterial species. In contrast to DTCH'S, their Cu(II) chelates exhibited higher antibacterial activity against St. aureus, but weaker, if any, activity against the gram-negative bacterial species. Both DTCH's and their Cu(II) chelates showed relatively potent antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans, but weak activity against Candida albicans and Candida pseudotropicalis.
