This paper reports on photoluminescence (PL), luminescence decay curves, and compositional analysis of porous silicon(PS) which is aged under air ambient by Fourier transform infrared vibrational spectroscopy (FTIR) and by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Porous silicos which has been aged under air ambient yields two PL band structures, i.e. blue/violet PL and red PL. The evolution of a blue/violet band is pronounced, especially for thin PS film which is prepared in dilute HF solution. The blue/violet PL band has been observed initially to increrase rapidly with aging, then saturated with further atmospheric aging. The ambient air aged PS exhibits a fast decay time of sub-nanosecond at room temperature and shows appreciably faster decay time than that at 20K. Atmospheric aging of this thin blue/violet luminescing PS yield non-stoichiometric oxide judging from the vibrational spectra of Si-O and AES analysis.

The relationship between porous surfaces and photoluminescence (PL) behavior of porous silicon carbide (PSC) in various solvents has been studied. The porous surfaces of p-type silicon carbide can be fabricated by electrochemical anodization from the 6H, 15R, 4H-${\alpha}$-SiC substrates in dark-current mode (DCM) condition. We have been investigated the dependence of the PL spectra of PSC under the medium having the different dielectric constants. It has been found that PL depends sensitively on the environment surrounding the surface. The extent of chemically stability on the surface of PSC due to the various solvents was confirmed by reflectance Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Detailed IR experiments on the PSC samples were carried out before and after various solvents immersion. These results will be offered important information on the origin of PL in porous structure.

Poyethylene(PE) films could be modified by radiation grafting of N-vinyl pyrollidone(NVP) using radiation. FTIR spectra was used to confirm the modification of PE films. The modified films were activated by one-step or two-step methods for electroless Cu plating. Morphology of metallized films has been investigated. Electroless Cu plating onto the modified films depends mainly on the grafting degree and activation type. The electrical conductivity and adhesion of the metallized films has been investigated and tested in regard of grafting degree of samples.

The a-C:H films have been grown on the glass substrate by PECVD method, where plasma was generated with a 60 Hz line power source. The carbonization is checked from peak intensities of D($sp^3$) and G($sp^2$) peaks in Raman spectra and is analyzed using the Gaussian convolution method of spectrum. Both the bonding strength of C-H and the ratio of $sp^3$ to $sp^2$ in bonding are found to be slightly dependent of partial pressure of $C_2H_2$.

Because of their low surface free energy and absence of polar groups at the surface, polyolefins are substrates whose wetting and adhesion are very difficult. Free radical grafting of monomers to backbone polymer is one of the most attractive ways for the chemical modification of polymers. Synthesis of graft copolymer through graft polymerizations of PE and/or PP with phthalic anhydride (PhAn) was made and FTIR spectra of the graft polymer were the examined. And also the effects of phthalic anhydride content on the grafting ratio, thermal properties and contact angle of the graft polymer were examined.

In this study 1-[4-(2-methoxy benzyl)-6-aryl-pyridazin-3(2H)-ylidene] hydrazines were used for the synthesis of new heterocyclic systems such as thiazolidine, phthalazine, pyrazolo, tetrazolo, hydrazide and new pyridazine derivatives to explore the effect of silver nanoparticles on their biological activity efficiency. Structures of the new heterocycles were characterized by the aid of several analytical techniques including; $^1H$-NMR, FTIR and mass spectra. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple methodology and the formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV studies. Most of the new prepared heterocycles were evaluated in vitro as new antimicrobial agents. Combination effects of the silver nanoparticles on the antimicrobial activity of the new heterocycles were investigated using the disk diffusion method. Compound 10a exhibited the strongest enhancing effect of silver nanoparticles solution against Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans.

We report the results of a preliminary investigation on capacitive humidity sensors using iodine-doped polyphenylacetylene(PPA) thin films. PPA was prepared from phenylacetylene(PA), chemically doped with iodine, and characterized by DSC, $^1H$-NMR and FTIR spectra. The iodine-doped PPA sensors showed a sensitivity of 0.20pF/%RH, a linearity of 3.8%FS, a negligible hysteresis, and a low temperature coefficients of $0.043~0.067pF/^{\circ}C$ over a wide range of relative humidity. These results are expected to open up the possibility of iodine-doped PPA thin films as relative humidity sensors.

Poyethylene films can be modified by radiation grafting of N-vinyl pyrollidone using y-radiation. FTIR spectra were used to confirm the modification of PE films. The modified films were activated by two-step and one step methods for electroless Cu plating. Morphology of metallized films has been investigated. Electroless Cu plating onto the modified films depends mainly on the grafting degree and activation type. The conductivity of the metallized films has been investigated.

The SiOC film of carbon centered system was prepared using bistrimethylsilylmethane and oxygen mixed precursor by the chemical vapor deposition. The chemical properties of the SiOC film were analyzed by the I-V measurement and FTIR spectra. The main bond of 950~1200 cm-1 was composed of the Si-C, Si-O-C and Si-O bonds. The leakage current of the SiOC film increased with the increasing of the carbon content, and the drift of the current was similar to the Si-O-C bond content.

Zirconium sulfate supported on zirconia catalysts were prepared by impregnation of powdered $Zr(OH)_4$ with zirconium sulfate aqueous solution followed by calcining in air at high temperature. The characterization of prepared catalysts was performed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and by the measurement of surface area. The addition of zirconium sulfate to zirconia increased the phase transition temperature of $ZrO_2$ from amorphous to tetragonal due to the interaction between zirconium sulfate and zirconia, and the specific surface area and acidity of catalysts increased in proportion to the zirconium sulfate content up to 10 wt% of $Zr(SO_4)_2$. Infrared spectra of ammonia adsorbed on $Zr(SO_4)2}ZrO_2$ showed the presence of Bronsted and Lewis acid sites on the surface. $10-Zr(SO_4)_2}ZrO_2$ calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ exhibited maximum catalytic activities for 2-propanol dehydration and cumene dealkylation. The catalytic activities for both reactions were correlated with the acidity of catalysts measured by ammonia chemisorption method.
