The present paper is focused on sorption concentration of silver (I) on some complex-forming ion exchangers in the initial thiocyanate form and subsequent determination of Ag(I) in the phase of anion exchanger AN-25 by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The sorption and kinetic characteristics of the sorbents were investigated. The apparent stability constants of thiocyanate silver complexes in the ion exchanger phase were calculated. The sorption-spectroscopic method is proposed for Ag(I) determination in aqueous solutions. The calibration curve is linear in the concentration range of 10-200 mg/L (sample volume is 10.0 mL) and the detection limit is 2 $\mu$g/mL. The presence of $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Mg^{2+}$ (macrocomponents) as well as of Ni (II), Co (II), Cu (II) do not hinder the determination of silver (I).

태양전지에서 고효율 달성을 위해 태양광을 더 많이 활용하기 위해서는 태양전지 표면에서의 광 반사를 줄여야 하는데 가장 효과적인 방법은 실리콘 기판의 wet etching 공정을 통한 텍스쳐링이다. 태양전지에서 가장 많이 사용되는 파장대역은 가시광선 영역인데 555 nm 파장에서 실리콘 표면의 total reflectance는 30.1%로 매우 높고 diffuse reflectance는 0.1%로서 무시할만큼 적다. 하지만 wet etching을 한 후 total reflectance는 18%까지 감소하였고, diffuse reflectance는 16%까지 증가하였다. 결정면에 따른 식각선택성을 이용하는 이방성 etching으로 V groove 모양의 표면형상을 얻을 수 있었고, 후속 등방성 etching을 하여 U groove 표면형상을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 wet etching의 문제점중의 하나는 반응중에 생성되는 수소기체가 실리콘 표면에 부착되어 etching이 불균일하게 진행되는 것인데 초음파를 사용하여 이 문제를 해결하였다. 그리고 Etchant의 성분용액중 하나인 IPA의 농도조절을 통해 표면에 형성되는 피라미드의 크기를 조절할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 실리콘 표면형상의 각각 서로 다른 크기와 모양에 따라 태양전지를 만들었을 때 빛의 활용 측면에서 어떤 변화가 있고 얼마만큼의 효율변화가 있는지에 대해서도 알아보았다.

A non-invasive spectroscopic method is presented for the measurement of pulmonary edema. Both early diagnosis and quantitative edema estimates were investigated. The spectroscopic determination of pulmonary edema involved the acquisition of diffuse reflectance spectra in the near-infrared (NIR) region with change in water concentration - water is the main constituent of edema fluid. Pulmonary edema was induced into the excised perfused lungs of seven animals by elevating the hydrostatic pressure. Estimates of edema were ascertained from a partial least squares regression of the measured spectral response. Actual edema was determined from the change (increase) in total lung weight. Estimates in relative lung weight increases due to in vitro edema were made with the near infrared spectra. The results revealed that fluid accumulation produced spectral changes in the O-H and C-H absorptions as well as scattering changes in the spectra. Histology of the lung was used to verify the presence or absence of interstitial and alveolar edema. Results demonstrated that near infrared spectroscopy might provide a new tool for clinical assessment of pulmonary edema.

Reflected light can be decomposed into specular and diffuse components according to the light reflectance theory and experiments. The specular component appears in smooth surfaces mainly, while the diffuse one is visible in rough surfaces mostly. Therefore, each component can be used in forming their correlations to a surface roughness. However, they cannot represent the whole surface roughness seamlessly, because each formulation is merely validated in their available surface roughness regions. To solve this problem, new approaches to properly blend two light components in all regions are proposed in this paper. First is the weighting function method that a blending zone and rate can be flexibly adjusted, and second is the neural network method based on the learning from the measurement data. Simulations based on the light reflectance theory were conducted to examine its performance, and then experiments conducted to prove the enhancement of the measurement accuracy and reliability through the whole surface roughness regions.

Reflection properties, such as specular reflection and diffuse reflection, are very important optical properties for the reflector, which has high reflectance in the display and architecture industry. Calcite is lowcost, nontoxic, and stable over a wide temperature range. Therefore, it is one of the most widely using fillers in many industries and has some advantages over titania as a filler to improve reflectance. However, optical properties, especially those of ceramic-filled composites, have not been analyzed. We studied the reflectance of calcite composites with their surface roughness. The reflectance of the composites was determined using a UV-visible spectrometer. The surface morphology and the micro-structure of the composites were investigated by atomic force microscope. The reflectance of the composites was improved by increasing the content of calcite in the calcite-frit composite. The reflectance is related with the surface roughness in the composites. However, the reflectance depends on the calcite contents in materials with similar surface roughness.

앞으로 유연성 태양전지는 빌딩 디자인에 부합하는 태양전지로서 다양하게 활용될 수 있는 매우 유망한 기술 분야이다. 얇은 스테인레스 스틸(SS) 기판은 이러한 유연성 박막태양전지의 기판으로서 중요한 장점을 가지고 있다. 250$^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온 박막태양전지 제조 공정에서 안정하고, 부식의 염려가 없으며, 또한 기판을 통해 수분, 산소 등이 침투할 수 없기 때문에 패키징이 수월하다. 그러나 SS 기판은 표면 스크래치 등이 전혀 없도록 제조하기 어렵고, 그 위에 무기 박막을 형성할 때 adhesion 특성이 나쁜 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SS 기판 표면을 단시간 식각하거나, 졸겔 방법으로 SiO2, Al2O3의 조성을 변화시키면서 막을 형성하여 adhesion특성 변화를 연구하였다. 또한 SS 기판 처리 조건에 따라 박막태양전지 기판으로서 중요한 특성인 표면 거침도에 따른 가시광선 산란 정도를 SS 기판 상에 금속, 투명전극을 형성하여 분석하였다. 기판을 식각해서 표면을 개질하고 그 위에 Al 박막을 증착한 후 반사도를 측정하였을 때, 식각 시간을 30초에서 3분으로 증가시킴에 따라 total reflectance는 75.7%에서 66.5%로 감소한 반면, diffuse reflectance는 1.1%에서 44.8%로 증가하였다. 이러한 diffuse reflectance의 증가는 박막 태양전지의 효율을 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다.

The feasibility of NIR spectroscopy as a quick and nondestructive method for quality control of uniformity of coating thickness of pharmaceutical tablets was investigated. Near infrared spectra of a set of pharmaceutical tablets with varying coating thickness were measured with a diffuse reflectance fiber optic probe connected to a Broker IFS 28/N FT-NIR spectrometer. The challenging issues encountered in this study included: 1. The similarity of the formulation of the core and coating materials, 2. The lack of sufficient calibration samples and 3. The non-linear relationship between the NIR spectral intensity and coating: thickness. A peak at 7184 $cm^{-1}$ was identified that differed for the coating material and the core material when M spectra were collected at 2 $cm^{-1}$ resolution (0.4 nm at 7184 $cm^{-1}$). The study showed that the coating thickness can be analyzed by polynomial fitting of the peak area of the selected peak, while least squares calibration of the same data failed due to the lack of availability of sufficient calibration samples. Samples of coal powder and solid pieces of coal were analyzed by FT-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy with the goal of predicting their ash content, percentage of volatile components, and energy content. The measurements were performed on a Broker Vector 22N spectrometer with a fiber optic probe. A partial least squares model was constructed for each of the parameters of interest for solid and powdered sample forms separately. Calibration models varied in size from 4 to 10 PLS ranks. Correlation coefficients for these models ranged from 86.6 to 95.0%, with root-mean-square errors of cross validation comparable to the corresponding reference measurement methods. The use of FT-NIR diffuse reflectance measurement techniques was found to be a significant improvement over existing measurement methodologies in terms of speed and ease of use, while maintaining the desired accuracy for all parameters and sample forms.(Figure Omitted).
