  • Lead halide perovskites CH3NH3PbX3 (X=Cl, Br, I) have received great interest in the past few years because of their excellent photoelectronic properties as well as their low-cost solution process. Their theoretical efficiency limit of the solar cell devices was predicted around 31% by a detailed balance model for the reason that exceptional light-harvesting and superior carrier transport properties. Additionally, these excellent properties contribute to the applications of optoelectronic devices such as LASERs, LEDs, and photodetectors. Since these devices are mainly using perovskite thin film, one of the most important factor to decide the efficiency of these applications is the quality of the film. Even though, optoelectrical devices are composed of polycrystalline thin film in general, not a single crystalline form which has longer carrier diffusion length and lower trap density. For these reasons, monodomain perovskite thin films have potential to elicit an optimized device efficiency. In this study, we analyzed the crystallography of the in-plane aligned perovskite thin film by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). Also the basic optic properties of perovskites were checked using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV-Vis spectrum. From this work, the perovskite which is aligned in all directions both of out-of-plane and in-plane was fabricated and analyzed.

  • This research focused on the effects of fragmentation on moth diversity in an agricultural land-scape by comparing moth species richness and abundance between hillocks and young secondary forests. We examined five sites from the southwestern part of South Korea: three sites from hillock forest and two from secondary forest. We collected moths bi-weekly from April to October for a 2-year period (2006-2007) with a UV light trap that usually attracts moths within 30 meters. Tree species richness and abundance in $20m{\times}20m$ plots at each moth sampling site showed a substantial difference in tree diversity between the two types of forest habitats. The total abundance and richness of moth species were higher in secondary forests (541 species with 4,998 individuals) than in hillock forests (423 species with 3,913 individuals), irrespective of the distance among the sites. An ordination analysis with NMDS showed that habitat is the most important factor of grouping sites. The food preferences of the dominant moth species i,n each habitat were closely related to the habitat type.

  • We prepared organic light-emitting-diodes (LEDs) with a squarylium(Sq)-doped aluminum quinoline(Alq3) emission layer by the vapor deposition method. We discussed their electro-luminescence(EL) and electrical properties. The EL from Sq had a peak wavelength of 670nm and a half-width of 30nm. Only the EL from So(purely red) could be observed at the doping concentration of over 15mol%, but the luminance were low (0.21cd/$m^2$, 0.1cd/$m^2$) and EL efficiency was under the $10^{-2}$W. Although Sq molecules seemed to act as trap site in Alq3 molecules, they acted as carrier drafts site at doping concentration of over 5mol%.

  • The present study aimed to investigate the local moth fauna and population change during a year on Island Oenarodo (N34$^{\circ}$27'50", E127$^{\circ}$28'06", 74 m a. s. l.), Goheung-gun, Jeonnam. Moth collecting was carried out using a light trap from March to October, 2007. A total of 231 species and 562 individuals in 14 families were identified. Species of Noctuidae were the most abundant with 86 species and 163 individuals, followed by Geometridae (60 species and 147 individuals) and Pyralidae (39 species and 135 individuals), respectively. Monthly changes of moths species richness and abundance were M-shaped with two peaks at late Spring and late Summer. During the study, a geometrid, Menophra senilis, and a pyralid, Endotricha olivacealis were most abundant with 16 individuals. The estimated species richness using Chao 1 identified 646 species, suggesting that we need more extensive and long-term survey for the better understanding of the total moth fauna on the island.

  • Activated carbon fiber (ACF) was modified with MnS nanoparticles to prepare MnS-ACF, and it was employed for preparation of MnS-$ACF/TiO_2$ composites with titanium (IV) n-butoxide (TNB). The properties of MnS-$ACF/TiO_2$ composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDX. EDX results showed the presence of C, O, and Ti as major elements and traces of the metal elements Mn and S. The photocatlytic activity was evaluated by degradation of methyl blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) dye. The results demonstrated that as-prepared samples could effectively photodegrade MB and MO under UV irradiation. Subsequently, the decomposition of MB solution showed the combined effects of adsorptions by ACF and enhanced photocatalytic effect by $TiO_2$. Finally, the photocatalytic effect increased due to photo-induced-electron absorption effect by ACF and electron trap effect by comodified MnS nanoparticles.

  • We have demonstrated the enhancement of the power efficiency and device lifetime of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) by introducing the ETL 1 / ETL2 (composite ETL) structure between EML and cathode and the HIL1 (composite HIL) / HIL2 between anode and HTL. Compared to reference devices retaining conventional architecture, novel OLED structure shows an outstanding EL efficiency that is 1.6 times higher (${\sim}4.5$ lm/w versus ${\sim}$ 2.71 lm/w for the reference device) and lower driving voltage $({\bigtriangleup}V>1V)$, but also a longer lifetime and smaller operating voltage drift over time. It is suggested in this work that the device performance can be improved by in-situ ohmic contact through novel electron controlled structure and reduction of charge accumulation in the interface through composite HIL

  • 발광층에 Alq3와 rubrene을 mixed host로 사용하고 DCJTB를 형광 dopant로 사용한 다층 박막 구조의 red OLEDs를 제작하였다. 소자의 구조는 $ITO:Anode(120nm)/{\alpha}-NPD:HTL(40nm)/Alq_3+Rubrene(mixed\;host\;1:1)+DCJTB(red\;dopant\;3%)+:EML(20nm)/Alq_3:ETL(40nm)/MgAg(Mg\;5%\;wt):Cathode(150nm)$ 로서 EML내부에 DCJTB를 Totally Doping Method와 Dotted-Line Doping Method의 두 가지 방법으로 도핑 하였다. Mixed host구조에 DCJTB를 6구간으로 나누어 Dotted Line Doping한 소자는 luminance yield가 $9.2cd/A@10mA/cm^2$ 이었다. 이 소자는 DCJTB만을 Totally Doping한 소자의 luminance yield $3.2cd/A@10mA/cm^2$에 비해 약 190%정도의 높은 효율 향상을 보였다. 또한 $10mA/cm^2$에 도달하는 전압은 5.5V Vs. 8.5V로서 mixed host를 사용한 소자에서 약 3V정도 구동전압이 낮아지는 효과가 있었다. 발광 스펙트럼의 Full Width Half Maximum(FWHM)은 각각 56.6nm와 61nm로서 rubrene을 mixed host로 사용한 소자에서 높은 색 순도를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 성능의 향상은 $Alq_3$와 혼합된 rubrene에 의한 낮은 전하주 입장벽, 높은 전류밀도에서 나타나는 발광감쇄현상의 감소, 그리고 발광층의 DLD구조에 의한 전하의 trap & confinement 에 따른 발광 exciton의 형성확률이 증가한데서 나타났다고 생각된다.

  • The present investigation aims at visualizing the crack tip stress field using a mechanoluminescence material. The well known compound $SrAl_2O_4$:$Eu^{2+}$ was adopted as a mechanolurninescence material. Two more trivalent rare-earth elements such as Dy and Nd were taken into consideration as codopants to provide the appropriate trap levels. Samples of a variety of compositions were prepared by varing $Eu^{2+}$, $Dy^{3+}$, and $Nd^{3+}$ doping contents, for which the combinatorial chemistry method was used. In order to search for the optimum composition for the highest mechanoluminescence, the luminescence induced by a compressive device including a CCD camera. In parallel, a compact tension specimen was prepared by mixing the luminescence powders of optimum composition and epoxy resin. Crack initiation from the mechanically machined sharp note tip and its growth during loading were found to be associated with the extent of light emission from $SrAl_2O_4$.

  • For orthodontic tooth movement, optimal orthodontic force should be maintained without periodontal breakdown and alveolar bone should be remodeled physiologically Therefore, To obtain proper occlusion through tooth movement within alveolar bone, we should know the biomechanics of teeth and supporting 4issues. The present study was performed to observe histologic changes of periodontal tissue immediately after application of orthodontic force and during the retention period in growing young adult dogs. In this study, experimental group contained between mandibular left canine and 1st molar and control group contained contralateral teeth of same animal. The .018'x.022' stainless steel closed coil spring(Dentaurum Co.) was ligated on the experimental teeth at initial 200gm-force from mandibular canine to 1st molar The animals(4 to 6 months aged young adult dogs) were sacrificed on 0, 14, 28 days after the finish of appliance activation, and then tissue samples were divided into hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining section, ground section, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) staining section, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) staining section. Thereafter, the preparations were examined under light microscopy The following results were obtained: 1. Immediately after the finish of appliance activation, the periodontal space was increased in tension side, but decreased in pressure side compared to that of control. The hyalinized zone was also observed in the periodontium. 2. After the 14-day retention, peridontal space was decreased in tension side and slightly increased in pressure side compared to that of immediately after the finish of appliance activation. The hyalinized zone was repaired and a few osteoblasts showing slightly new bone formation were seen. Osteoblasts were scarcely observed along the alveolar bone. 3. Aftter the 28-day retention, the periodontal fibers are normally repaired. A lot of TRAP(+) osteoclasts md increased alveolar bone resorption were observed in pressure side, and AP(+) osteoblast and increased new bone formation were observed in tension side.
