Interest in flexible transparent conducting films (TCFs) has been growing recently mainly due to the demand for electrodes incorporated in flexible or wearable displays in the future. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. In this work, the fabrication by the spraying process of transparent SWNT films and reduction of its sheet resistance on PET substrates is researched Arc-discharge SWNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then was doped with Au-ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. This was confirmed and discussed on the XPS and UPS studies. We show that 87 ${\Omega}/{\Box}$ sheet resistances with 81% transmittance at the wavelength of 550nm. The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after Au-ionic doping treatments were discussed. The effect of Au-ion treatment on the electronic structure change of SWNT films was investigated by Raman and XPS.

The effects of salt and bicarbonate solution on overall meat quality in beef biceps femoris muscle were investigated with the application of chilling and freezing conditions. Muscles were injected to a target of 120% of original meat weight with a solution containing 1.2 M sodium chloride, 0.25 M sodium bicarbonate and 0.1% ascorbic acid (pH 7.2). Half of the meat samples, considered as chill treatment and chill control, were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ up to five days; while the other half, frozen treatment and frozen control, were kept in a freezer at $-20^{\circ}C$ for seven days. Compared with untreated control, treated meats had higher water holding capacity (p<0.05), lower drip loss (p<0.05) and lower shear force (p<0.07) with higher overall acceptability (p<0.05) in sensory evaluation. Morphological observations demonstrated smooth and gummy meat surface due to the solubilization of myofibrillar proteins and the distortion of connective tissue in treated raw meats; and in the case of cooked meat, treatment caused the fragmentation of myofibrils, which might be responsible for a lower shear value in salt-bicarbonate treated beef biceps femoris muscle.

Typical electrodes (metal or indium tin oxide (ITO)), which were used in conventional organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) structure, have transparency and conductivity, but, it is not suitable as the electrode of the flexible OLEDs (f-OLEDs) due to its brittle property. Although Graphene is the most well-known alternative material for conventional electrode because of present electrode properties as well as flexibility, its carrier injection barrier is comparatively high to use as electrode. In this work, we performed plasma treatment on the graphene surface and alkali metal doping in the organic materials to study for its possibility as anode and cathode, respectively. By using Ultraviolet Photoemission Spectroscopy (UPS), we investigated the interfaces of modified graphene. The plasma treatment is generated by various gas types such as O2 and Ar, to increase the work function of the graphene film. Also, for co-deposition of organic film to do alkali metal doping, we used three different organic materials which are BMPYPB (1,3-Bis(3,5-di-pyrid-3-yl-phenyl)benzene), TMPYPB (1,3,5-Tri[(3-pyridyl)-phen-3-yl]benzene), and 3TPYMB (Tris(2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl)borane)). They are well known for ETL materials in OLEDs. From these results, we found that graphene work function can be tuned to overcome the weakness of graphene induced carrier injection barrier, when the interface was treated with plasma (alkali metal) through the value of hole (electron) injection barrier is reduced about 1 eV.

본 연구에서는 W-IPA(peroxo-polytungstic acid)를 출발 물질로 하는 졸 용액을 ITO(indium tin oxide)가 입혀진 유리판 위에 침적 도포(dip-coating) 방법으로 침적시키고, 이것을 겔화시킨 후에 열처리하여 전기 발색 소자 (electrochromic device, ECD)의 텅스텐 산화물 박막 전극을 만들어 이의 전기화학적인 특성을 고찰하였다. 가장 좋은 전기 화학적 특성을 나타내는 조건은 $2g/10mL(W-IPA/H_2O)$졸 용액에 15회 침적 도포하여 $230{\sim}240^{\circ}C$의 온도로 최종 열처리 한 텅스텐 산화물 박막 전극이었으며, 침적 횟수의 증가에 따라 산화 텅스텐 박막의 두께는 비례하여 증가하였고, 5회 침적 도포 이후에는 1회 침적 도포시 약 $60{\AA}$ 두께로 막이 생성됨을 알 수 있었다. 졸-겔법으로 제조된 텅스텐 산화물 박막 전극은 X-선 회절 분석에 의하여 비정질 구조, 주사 전자 현미경에 의하여 박막 표면은 균일한 것으로 조사되었다. 다중 순환 전류-전위 주사법에 의하여 작성된 전류-전위 곡선에 의하면 순환 횟수가 수백회 이상임에도 불구하고 소 발색은 뚜렷하게 나타났으나, 더욱 많은 순환 횟수에서는 전해질인 황산 수용액 중에서 텅스텐 산화물 박막의 박리 현상이 일어나 소 발색의 전류 밀도는 차츰 감소하였다. 전위 주사 속도를 변화시키면서 순환 전류-전위 주사법에 의하여 작성된 전류-전위 곡선으로부터 구한 전기화학적 특성 값을 이용하여 반응에 참여하는 수소 이온의 확산 계수를 구할 수 있었다.

Despite recent efforts for fabricating flexible transparent conducting films (TCFs) with low resistance and high transmittance, several obstacles to meet the requirement of flexible displays still remain. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. Recently, it has been demonstrated that acid treatment is an efficient method for surfactant removal. However, the treatment has been reported to destroy most SWNT. In this work, the fabrication by the spraying process of transparent SWNT films and reduction of its sheet resistance by Au-ionic doping treatment on PET substrates is researched. Arc-discharge SWNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then was doped with Au-ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy.

The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after Au-ionic doping treatments were discussed. The effects of hole transport interface layer using Au-ionic doping SWNT on the performance of organic solar cells were investigated.

Single-well carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have been proposed as a promising candidate for various applications owing to their excellent properties. In particular, their fascinating electrical and mechanical properties could provide a new area for the development of advanced engineering materials. A transparent conductive thin film (TCF) has increased for applications such as liquid crystal displays, touch panels, and flexible displays. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. But, a bundle of CNTs has different electrical properties than their individual counterparts. In this work, the fabrication by the spraying process of transparent SWNT films and reduction of its sheet resistance on PET substrates is researched. Arc-discharge SWNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodum dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate at $100^{\circ}C$. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then treated with ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. Results, we show that 97 ${\Omega}$/> sheet resistance can be achieved with 81% transmittance at the wavelength of 550 nm. The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after ionic doping treatments were discussed.

A simple solvothermal reaction was used to prepare a 3-aminopropyl-functionalized silica-gel-based adsorbent for adsorbing Pd(II) from the nitric acid solution. Scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry analysis were performed on the as-synthesized adsorbent to demonstrate the successful introduction of Schiff base groups. Batch experiments were used to investigate the effects of contact time, nitric acid concentration, solution temperature, and adsorption capacity. It is worth noting that the prepared adsorbent exhibited a higher affinity toward Pd(II) with the uptake approximately 100% even in a 2 M HNO₃ solution. At an equilibrium time of 5 h, the maximum adsorption capacity of Pd(II) was estimated to be 0.452 mmol/g. The adsorbed Pd(II) could be completely eluted by dissolving 0.2 M thiourea solution in 0.1 M HNO₃. Using a combination of particle-induced X-ray emission analysis and an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, the adsorbed Pd was found to be uniformly distributed on the surface of the prepared adsorbent and the existing species were Pd(II) and zero-valent Pd(0). Due to the desirable performances, facile preparation method, and abundant raw material source, the prepared adsorbent demonstrated a high application potential in the recovery of Pd(II) from simulated high-level liquid waste treatment.

수처리 후 직접 해양으로 배출하는 산업시설 등에서 Hazardous and Noxious Substance (HNS) 농도 변화를 연속 자동 측정하기 위한 센서의 기본적 성능으로 상온에서도 ppb 수준의 검출이 가능한 센서가 필요하다고 판단하여 기존의 센서의 감도를 높이기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 우선 나노입자 박막에 전도성 탄소계 첨가물을 이용하여 필름의 전도도를 높이는 방법과 촉매 금속을 이용하여 표면에서의 이온 흡착도를 높이는 방법에 대해서 각각 연구하였다. 전도성 개선을 위해서 ITO 나노입자를 활용한 필름에 carbon black을 첨가물로 선택하여, 첨가물 함유량에 따른 센서의 성능변화를 관찰하였다. 그 결과 CB 함량 5 wt% 정도에서 전도성 증가에 의한 저항과 응답시간의 변화를 관찰할 수 있었고, 유기용제를 대상으로 한 실험에서 검출하한은 250 ppb 정도까지 낮아지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 액체 중 이온 흡착도를 높이기 위하여 센서 표면에 촉매로 Au를 스퍼터로 제작한 표면 촉매층을 형성한 시료를 이용한 실험에서 센서의 응답은 20% 이상 증가하고 평균 검출하한은 61 ppm까지 낮아지는 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터 금속산화물 나노입자를 활용한 화학저항형 센서가 상온에서도 수십 ppb 정도의 HNS를 검출할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.
