We previously reported a 27.12 MHz inductively coupled plasma source at atmospheric pressure for atomic emission spectrometry based on polymer microchip plasma technology. For the PDMS polymer microchip plasma, molecular emission was observed, but no metallic detection was done. In this experiment, a lab-made electrothermal vaporizer (ETV) with tantalum coil was connected to the microchip plasma for aqueous sample introduction to detect metal ions. The electrode geometry of this microchip plasma was redesigned for better stability and easy monitoring of emission. The plasma was operated at an rf power of 30-70 W using argon gas at 300 mL/min. Gas kinetic temperatures between 800-3200 K were obtained by measuring OH emission band. Limits of detection of about 20 ng/mL, 96.1 ng/mL, and 1.01 μ g/mL were obtained for alkali metals, Zn, and Pb, respectively, when 10 μ L samples in 0.1% nitric acid were injected into the ETV.

An ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma) emission spectrometer was developed with an axially viewed ICP source incorporated by a 5-turned induction coil and a torch, outer quartz tube of which was 50 mm longer than that used in conventional ICP/AES(Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry). The Optimization of the system has been performed in terms of the determination of signal-to-noise ratio and background intensity at various rf powers, sample flow rates, argon gas flow rates and cut-off gas flow rates. The spectro-analytical characteristics of the spectrum obtained between 200 and 500 nm was revealed to be similar compared with a vertically viewed ICP source. The detection limit of Pb(Ⅱ) at 220.35 nm was 11 ppb which was 5 times lower than that obtained with a vertically viewed ICP source.

Current status of soil contamination with fluorine and its source were investigated. The basic principles and procedures of various techniques for the analysis of fluorine contents in soil and solid phase samples were summarized in this review. Analysis of fluorine in solid matrices can be achieved by two types of techniques: (i) UV/Vis spectrophotometer or ion selective electrode (ISE) analysis after performing appropriate extraction steps and (ii) direct solid analysis. As the former cases, the standard method of Korean ministry of environment, alkali fusion-ISE method, pyrohydrolysis, oxygen bomb combustion, aqua regia digestion-automatic analysis, and sequential extraction-ISE method were introduced. In addition, direct analysis methods (i.e., X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and proton induced gamma-ray emission spectrometry) and atomic spectrometry combining with the equipment for introducing solid phase sample were also reviewed. Fluorine analysis techniques can be reasonably selected through site-specific information such as matrix condition, contamination level, the amount of samples and the principles of various methods for the analysis of fluorine presented in this review.

It is very important to use the charge coupled devices (CCDs) in spectrometry because we can study the molecular energy level, molecular structure, absorption or emission, intermolecular reaction, weakly bound molecular energy, photochemistry, fluorescence and photodynamic therapy (PDT). CCD is very essential to study the molecular structure and medical engineering combining laser spectroscopy in the modem physicsal and chemistry. Therefore, this study has designed and manufactured the electromagnetic spectrometry with CCD and then analyzed the printed electronic circuit. In the yesterday, CCD was thought to be used in only broadcasting system. But nowadays, it is used by industrial demand in observations, instrumentations and robotics as the industry develop.

반도체 및 디스플레이 공정용 플라즈마 장치에서 플라즈마 변수를 측정하기 위한 방법들이 많이 개발되어 왔다. 전자 밀도와 온도는 정전 탐침이나 컷오프 프로브 등을 사용하여 활성종이나 중성종에 비해 상대적으로 쉽게 측정할 수 있고, 활성종과 중성종은 LIF (Laser Induced Fluorescence) 방법, OES (Optical Emission Spectrometry) 방법, 그리고 QMS (Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry) 방법 등을 이용하여 측정할 수 있으나 절대적인 크기를 측정할 수 있는 경우는 제한적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 측정한 전자 밀도와 전자 온도를 기반으로 하여 고려되는 종들의 밀도를 계산할 수 있는 프로그램도 제작된 바 있다. 개발된 프로그램의 입력 값으로 사용되는 플라즈마 화학반응 데이터베이스는 계산 결과의 정확성과 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 이런 이유로 신뢰성 높은 데이터베이스를 확보하기 위한 연구도 진행되었다. 개발된 프로그램을 이용하여 계산한 플라즈마 변수의 장비 변수에 대한 의존성이 진단 데이터와도 잘 부합하는 것으로 확인되었다.

Fig. 1에서 보는 바와 같이 수 MeV의 에너지를 가진 입사이온이 고체 시료표면과 충돌했을 때 여러 가지의 상호작용과 과정들이 일어난다. 입사 아온이 표적원자의 원자가전자나 내각전자와 상호작용을 하였을 때 원자를 여기시키거나 이온화시키게 되며 입사 이온이 표적 핵과 매우 가까이 접근했을 때 입사이온과 표적 핵사이에 쿨롱상호작용이나 핵 상호작용이 일어나게 된다. 이러한 여러가지 상호작용의 결과들로부터 분석하고자 하는 시료의 성분, 구조, 상호작용 과정에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 고에너지 이온선을 이용한 분석기술로는 Fig. 1에서 보는 바와 같이 후방산란법(BS : Backscattering Spectrometry), 전방산란법(FRS : Forward Recoil Spectrometry), 핵반응법(NRA : Nuclear Reaction Analysis), 양성자여기X선검출법(PIXE : Proton Induced X-ray Emission)등과 이러한 방법들과 같이 조합하여 사용하는 이온 채널링(ion channeling)등이 있다. 본 해설에서는 이러한 분석법중에서도 널리 사용되고 있는 후방산란법과 이온 채널링에 대하여 주로 기술하고자 한다.

Silver(I) [bis(alkylthio)methylene]malonates were synthesized from the reaction of silver nitrate and potassium [bis(alkylthio)methylene]malonates. The structures of the Ag complexes were characterized with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and elemental analysis. Ag nanoparticles (NPs) were obtained from the decomposition of the Ag complexes in 1,2-dichlorobenzene at $110^{\circ}C$ without an additional surfactant. The average sizes of the Ag NPs are in the range of 5.1-6.3 nm and could be controlled by varying the length of the alkyl chain. The optical properties, crystalline structure and surface composition of Ag NPs were characterized with ultraviolet-visible (UV-visible) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).

N-type ZnO nanorods were grown on p-type porous silicon using a chemical bath deposition (CBD) method (p-n diode). The structure and geometry of the device were examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) while the optoelectronic properties were investigated by UV/Vis absorption spectrometry as well as photoluminescence and electroluminescence measurements. The field emission (FE) properties of the device were also measured and its turn-on field and current at 6 $V/{\mu}m$ were determined. In principle, the growth of ZnO nanorods on porous siicon for optoelectronic applications is possible.

A particle counting system that can also provide sensitive, specific chemical information, while consuming very less power, occupying less space, and being inexpensive has been developed. This system uses a microwave plasma torch (MPT) as the excitation source for atomic emission spectrometry (AES). Emission from a single particle can be detected, and the wavelength at which the emission is observed indicates the elements present in the particle. It is believed that correlating the particle size and emission intensity will allow us to estimate the particle size in addition to abovementioned capabilities of the system. In the long term, this system can be made field-portable, so that it can be used in atmospheric aerosol monitoring applications, which require real-time detection and characterization of particles at low concentrations.

Since the seventies and the oil crisis, energy-saving measures have led to a reduction in the ventilation of room. The use of synthetic materials which emit various chemical substances had led to an increase in the concentration of indoor pollutants. "Sick building syndrome (SBS)" and "Sick house syndrome (SHS)" are worldwide problems. Also, the number of complaints about indoor air pollution caused by VOCs (Volatile organic compound) and HCHO (Formaldehyde) has increased. It is important that evaluating and understanding emission of indoor air pollutant from building materials. The object of this study was to evaluate emission test method for flooring such as wood based flooring, carpet tile, rubber tile, PVC sheet and tile, and to determine emission of TVOC and form-aldehyde. The quantity of TVOC and carbonyl compounds emission were sampled and measured by Tenax TA and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MSD), 2,4-DNPH cartrige with ozone scrubber and high performance liquid from flooring. The TVOC concentration emitted from carpet tile was ($7.419\;mg/m^2 h$) the highest among 5 groups of test materials. In wood based flooring and PVC tile, the emitted concentration of toluene was high. And the dodecane emission was highest in carpet. The concentration of TVOC decreased by an increase in emission test period. After 7 days, the concentration of TVOC from floorings were about 50% below of the concentration at the first day. TVOC emission from wood based flooring, carpet tile, rubber tile, PVC sheet and tile were decreased in 28 days and remained steady after about 15 days. The concentration of formaldehyde emission from floorings showed extremely low.
