We demonstrate here that an improvement in precursor film density (green density) leads to a great enhancement in the photovoltaic performance of CuInSe2 (CISe) thin film solar cells fabricated with Cu-In nanoparticle precursor films via chemical solution deposition. A cold-isostatic pressing (CIP) technique was applied to uniformly compress the precursor film over the entire surface (measuring 3~4 cm2) and was found to increase its relative density (particle packing density) by ca. 20%, which resulted in an appreciable improvement in the microstructural features of the sintered CISe film in terms of lower porosity, reduced grain boundaries, and a more uniform surface morphology. The low-bandgap (Eg=1.0 eV) CISe PV devices with the CIP-treated film exhibited greatly enhanced open-circuit voltage (VOC, from 0.265 V to 0.413 V) and fill factor (FF, from 0.34 to 0.55), as compared to the control devices. As a consequence, an almost 3-fold increase in the average power conversion efficiency, 3.0 to 8.2% (with the highest value of 9.02%), was realized without an anti-reflection coating. A diode analysis revealed that the enhanced VOC and FF were essentially attributed to the reduced reverse saturation current density (j0) and diode ideality factor (n). This is associated with the suppressed recombination, likely due to the reduction in recombination sites such as grain/air surfaces (pores), inter-granular interfaces, and defective CISe/CdS junctions in the CIP-treated device. From the temperature dependences of VOC, it was confirmed that the CIP-treated devices suffer less from interface recombination.

Printed electronics using printing process has broadened in all respects such as electrics (lighting, batteries, solar cells etc) as well as electronics (OLED, LCD, E-paper, transistor etc). Copper is considered to be a promising alternative to silver for printed electronics, due to very high conductivity at a low price. However, Copper is easily oxidized, and its oxide is non-conductive. This is the highest hurdle for making copper inks, since the heat and humidity that occurs during ink making and printing simply accelerates the oxidation process. A variety of chemical treatments including organic capping agents and metallic coating have been used to slow this oxidation. We have established synthetic conditions of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) which are resistant to oxidation and average diameter of 20 to 50nm. Specific resistivity should be less than $4\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ when sintered at lower temperature than $250^{\circ}C$ to be able to apply to conductive patterns of FPCBs using ink-jet printing. Through this study, the parameters to control average diameter of CuNPs were found to be the introduction of additive agent, the feeding rate of reducing agent, and reaction temperature. The CuNPs with various average diameters (58, 40, 26, 20nm) could be synthesized by controlling these parameters. The dispersed solution of CuNPs with an average size of 20 nm was made with nonpolar solvent containing 3 wt% of binder, and then coated onto glass substrate. After sintering the coated substrates at $250^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in nitrogen atmosphere, metallic copper film resulted in a specific resistivity of $4.2\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

Statement of problem: Titanium has many advantages of high biocompatibility, physical properties, low-weight, low price and radiolucency, but it is incompatible with conventional dental porcelain due to titanium's oxidative nature. Many previous studies have shown that they used the method of sandblast for surface treatment prior to porcelain application, the researches are processing about the method of acid etching or surface coating. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to study the effect on bond strength of surface roughness between titanium and porcelain with the same surface topography. Material and method: In this study, we evaluated the bond strength by using 3-point bending test based on ISO 9693 after classified 8 groups - group P : polished with #1200 grit SiC paper, group S10 : $1.0{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group S15 : $1.5{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group S20 : $2.0{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group S25 : $2.5{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group S30 : $3.0{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group S35 : $3.5{\mu}m$ surface roughness with sandblasting, group E : $1.0{\mu}m$ surface roughness with HCl etching. Results: Within the confines of our research, the following results can be deduced. 1. In the results of 3-point bending test, the bond strength of sandblasting group showed significant differences from one of polishing group, acid etching group(P<.05). 2. The bond strength of sandblasting groups did not show significant differences. 3. After surface treatments, the group treated with sandblasting showed irregular aspect formed many undercuts, in the SEM photographs. The bond strength of sandblasting group was higher than 25 MPa, the requirement of ISO 9693. Conclusion: In above results, bond strength of titanium and low-fusing porcelain is influenced more to surface aspect than surface roughness. And titanium has clinically acceptable bond strength below surface roughness of $3.5{\mu}m$.

Metal oxide gas sensors based on semiconductor type have attracted a great deal of attention due to their low cost, flexible production and simple usability. However, most works have been focused on n-type oxides, while the characteristics of p-type oxide gas sensors have been barely studied. An investigation on p-type oxides is very important in that the use of them makes possible the novel sensors such as p-n diode and tandem devices. Monoclinic cupric oxide (CuO) is p-type semiconductor with narrow band gap (~1.2 eV). This is composed of abundant, nontoxic elements on earth, and thus low-cost, environment-friendly devices can be realized. However, gas sensing properties of neat CuO were rarely explored and the mechanism still remains unclear. In this work, the neat CuO layers with highly ordered mesoporous structures were prepared by a template-free, one-pot solution-based method using novel ink solutions, formulated with copper formate tetrahydrate, hexylamine and ethyl cellulose. The shear viscosity of the formulated solutions was 5.79 Pa s at a shear rate of 1 s-1. The solutions were coated on SiO2/Si substrates by spin-coating (ink) and calcined for 1 h at the temperature of $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ in air. The surface and cross-sectional morphologies of the formed CuO layers were observed by a focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) and porosity was determined by image analysis using simple computer-programming. XRD analysis showed phase evolutions of the layers, depending on the calcination temperature, and thermal decompositions of the neat precursor and the formulated ink were investigated by TGA and DSC. As a result, the formation of the porous structures was attributed to the vaporization of ethyl cellulose contained in the solutions. Mesoporous CuO, formed with the ink solution, consisted of grains and pores with nano-meter size. All of them were strongly dependent on calcination temperature. Sensing properties toward H2 and C2H5OH gases were examined as a function of operating temperature. High and fast responses toward H2 and C2H5OH gases were discussed in terms of crystallinity, nonstoichiometry and morphological factors such as porosity, grain size and surface-to-volume ratio. To our knowledge, the responses toward H2 and C2H5OH gases of these CuO gas sensors are comparable to previously reported values.

난분해성 및 독성 폐수 처리는 고급산화 기술과 생물학적 처리가 친화결합(intimate coupling) 을 이룰 때 최적의 효과를 거둘 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 광촉매 산화와 생물학적 처리를 친화결합하도록 고안된 다공성 $TiO_2$ 코팅 담체를 제조하여 광촉매 반응에 관한 동력학 연구를 수행하였다. 저온 sol-gel 코팅법으로 제조된 PVA 재질의 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체는 UV 조사하에서 methylene blue (MB)를 효율적으로 분해하였다. 시험 농도(최대 100 ${\mu}M$)에서 MB의 흡착속도는 1차반응 (first-order reaction)의 성질을 보였으며, 흡착과 산화를 포함한 총반응속도는 유사 Langmuir 모델로 예측 가능하였다. 이러한 원인은 담체 표면에 MB가 흡착됨에 따라 UV 조사에 의하여 광촉매 반응이 일어날 표면이 줄어들었기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체의 단위 $TiO_2$ 량당 최대 MB 제거속도는 슬러리 $TiO_2$ 반응기에서 얻은 MB 제거속도보다 4배 더 빨랐다. 본 연구로 인하여 저온 sol-gel 코팅법으로 제조한 PVA 재질 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체가 성공적인 광분해 반응을 나타내는 것이 확인되었으며, 동 담체에 대한 광촉매 반응의 동력학적 성질이 구명되어, 향후 생물처리를 친화결합 시킬 수 있는 연구 바탕을 확보하였다.

Titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films have valuable properties such as a high refractive index, excellent transmittance in the visible and near-IR frequency, and high chemical stability. Therefore it is extensively used in anti-reflection coating, sensor, and photocatalysis as electrical and optical applications. Specially, TiO2 have a high dielectric constant of 180 along the c axis and 90 along the a axis, so it is highlighted in fabricating dielectric capacitors in micro electronic devices. A variety of methods have been used to produce patterned self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), including microcontact printing ($\mu$CP), UV-photolithotgraphy, e-beam lithography, scanned-probe based micro-machining, and atom-lithography. Above all, thin film fabrication on $\mu$CP modified surface is a potentially low-cost, high-throughput method, because it does not require expensive photolithographic equipment, and it produce micrometer scale patterns in thin film materials. The patterned SAMs were used as thin resists, to transfer patterns onto thin films either by chemical etching or by selective deposition. In this study, we deposited TiO2 thin films on Si (1000 substrateds using titanium (IV) isopropoxide ([Ti(O(C3H7)4)] ; TIP as a single molecular precursor at deposition temperature in the range of 300-$700^{\circ}C$ without any carrier and bubbler gas. Crack-free, highly oriented TiO2 polycrystalline thin films with anatase phase and stoichimetric ratio of Ti and O were successfully deposited on Si(100) at temperature as low as 50$0^{\circ}C$. XRD and TED data showed that below 50$0^{\circ}C$, the TiO2 thin films were dominantly grown on Si(100) surfaces in the [211] direction, whereas with increasing the deposition temperature to $700^{\circ}C$, the main films growth direction was changed to be [200]. Two distinct growth behaviors were observed from the Arhenius plots. In addition to deposition of THe TiO2 thin films on Si(100) substrates, patterning of TiO2 thin films was also performed at grown temperature in the range of 300-50$0^{\circ}C$ by MOCVD onto the Si(100) substrates of which surface was modified by organic thin film template. The organic thin film of SAm is obtained by the $\mu$CP method. Alpha-step profile and optical microscope images showed that the boundaries between SAMs areas and selectively deposited TiO2 thin film areas are very definite and sharp. Capacitance - Voltage measurements made on TiO2 films gave a dielectric constant of 29, suggesting a possibility of electronic material applications.

본 연구에서 광산수의 재활용을 위해 축전식 탈염공정을 적용하였다. 이를 위해 이온교환폴리머를 코팅한 탄소 전극을 활용하였는데 본 성능을 관찰하기 위해 이온교환폴리머를 코팅하지 않은 탄소 전극으로 광산수의 탈염 운전을 수행하고 비교분석하였다. 또한, 광산수의 높은 농도가 축전식 탈염공정에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 저농도의 기수(NaCl 200 ppm)를 활용한 운전 성능 비교 역시 수행하였다. 연구 결과 이온교환폴리머를 코팅한 탄소 전극을 활용한 광산수 탈염 효율 및 제거양 모두 그렇지 않은 전극에 비해 높았고 에너지 소모량은 더 적게 나타났다. 이는 높은 비패러데이 전류, 높은 염농도에 따른 낮은 용액 저항, 전극 기공 내에서의 이중층 중첩효과에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, 이온교환폴리머를 코팅한 전극을 활용한 기수 탈염 운전 결과 낮은 염농도에 따라 용액의 저항이 높아지고, 제거 대상의 염의 양이 낮아 광산수에 비해 매우 높은 효율을 보였으나, 제거양은 매우 낮음을 알 수 있었다.
