We have grown GaAs epilayers by chemical beam epitaxy(CBE) using unprecracked hydrides and metal organic compounds via a surface decomposition process. This result shows that unprecracked arsine (AsH3) or monoethylarsine (MEAs) can be used in chemical beam epitaxy(CBE) as a replacement of a precracked AsH3 source in CBE. It was also found that the uptake of carbon impurity in epilayers grown using trimethylgallium(TMG) with unprecracked AsH3 or MEAs was significantly reduced compared to that in epilayers grown by CBE process employing TMG and arsenics produced from precracked hydrides. We propose a surface structural model suggesting that the hydrogen atoms play an important role in the reduction of carbon content in GaAs epilayer. Intermediates like dihydrides from hydride sources were also considered to hinder carbon atoms from being incorporated into the epilayers or to remove other carbon containing species on the surface.

As biosensors are widely used in the medical field, flexible devices compatible with live animals have aroused great interest. Especially, significant research has been carried out to develop implantable or skin-attachable devices for real-time bio-signal sensing. From the device point of view, various biosensor types such as field-effect transistors (FETs) and multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) have been reported as diverse sensing strategies. In particular, the flexible FETs and MEAs allow semiconductor engineering to expand its application, which had been impossible with stiff devices and materials. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art research on flexible FET and MEA biosensors focusing on their materials, structures, sensing targets, and methods.

Objective: This study was carried out to use pine needles as a passive air sampler (PAS) of atmospheric Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs). Methods: PCB concentrations in ambient air ($C_a$, ng/$m^3$) and deposited on pine needles ($C_p$, ng/g dry) were analyzed simultaneously from June 1 to December 31. Air samples were taken using a low volume PUF active air sampler and the overall average air volume was about 900-1,000 $m^3$. Pine needles were collected at the end of August and December near the air sampler. Results: $C_a$ were higher at higher air temperature and lower chlorinated PCB congeners, but $C_p$ showed irregular distribution. The average PCB sampling rates from air to pine needles were 0.116 (0.002-0.389) $m^3$/day - g dry. Conclusions: A poor correlation was shown between $C_a$ and $C_p$. However, a good correlation was shown between the logarithm of octanol-air partitioning coefficient ($logK_{oa}$) and log ($C_p/C_a$), and the interrelation was better with longer sampling time (June to December) than shorter sampling time (June to August). The average PCB sampling rates from air to pine needles were the lowest with respect to PUF disk, XAD-2 resin and semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) PAS. The average ratio ($C_{a-calc}/C_{a-meas}$) of calculated ($C_{a-calc}$) and measured ($C_{a-meas}$) PCB concentration was 0.69 with a shorter sampling time and 1.24 with a longer, so $C_{a-calc}$ was close to $C_{a-meas}$. It was found that pine needles can be used as PAS of atmospheric PCBs, and are especially suitable for long-time PAS.

선망의 침강 저항 특성을 해명하기 위한 기초 연구로서, 망지의 재료가 다르고 침자량이 동일한 선망 모형의 침강특성을 해석하였다. 실험에 사용한 선망은, 그물실의 직경 및 발의 길이가 같은 폴리프로피렌系 (밀도 0.91g/cm$cm^3$), 폴리아미드系 (밀도 1.14g/cm$cm^3$) 및 폴리에스터系 (밀도 1.38g/cm$cm^3$)의 매듭 없는 망지를 사용하여, 뜸줄의 길이 420cm, 그물의 폭 86cm가 되도록 제작하였다. 이 그물들의 발줄에 침자를 25g, 45g, 60g 의 3 단계로 바꾸어 9종류의 모형그물을 만들고, 각각 PP-25, PA-25, PES-25, PP-45, PA-45, PES-45, PP-60, PA-60 및 PES-60그물이라고 이름을 붙였다. 회류수조의 수로 위에 투망장치를 설치해서 정지 상태의 수중에 투망하고, 관측부 전면에 설치한 비디오 카메라를 이용하여 촬영 녹화하였다. 그리고, 그물에 표시한 측정점의 좌표를 화상해석장치로 읽고 실험치를 구하였다. 여기서, 선망의 수직방향의 침강운동을 나타낸 이론식을 이용하여 수치해석을 행하였는데, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 침자량이 60g일 때, 아랫자락의 평균 침강속도는 PES그물 12.2 cm/sec로 가장 빠르고, PA그물 11.4 cm/sec, PP 그물 10.7cm/sec 순으로 늦게 나타났다. 2. 망지의 저항계수 $K_D$는, 계산결과 $K_D=0.09(\frac{\rho}{\rho_w})^4$의 관계식으로 나타낼 수 있었다. 3. 그물다발의 저항계수 $C_R$은, 계산결과 $C_R=0.91(\frac{\rho}{\rho_w})$의 관계식으로 나타낼 수 있었다. 4. 선망 투망후 경과시간에 따른 그물 아랫자락의 도달수심에 대한 실험치와 계산치의 관계는 상관성이 매우 높아, 침자량이 25g일 때 meas.=1.04 cal., 45g일 때 meas.=0.99cal.였으며, 60g일 때 meas.=0.98cal.의 관계를 나타냈다.

In order to develop key technologies for a kW class for polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC), various membranes (Nafion(112, 115, 117), Dow, Flemion, Gore, and Hanwha), and electrocatalysts (Pt/C, PtNi/C PtNiCo/C and PtRu/C) were used in the fabrication of the MEAs by using transfer printing technique. The effects of the thickness of Nafion membranes, electrocatalysts and the operating conditions (e.g. temperature, reactant gas pressure, and composition) on the performance of the MEA were investigated in the PEFC single cell($O_2/H_2$, and Air/$H_2$ cell). The performances of the MEAs for $O_2/H_2$ and Air/$H_2$ cells has been evaluated.

In this paper, both theoretical and experimental investigations have been performed to examine the effects of key operating parameters on the cell performance of a DMFCs (i.e., methanol feed concentration and operating temperature). For experiment, the membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) were prepared using a conventional MEA fabrication method based on a catalyst coated electrode (CCE) and tested under various cell temperatures and methanol feed concentrations. The polarization curve measurements were conducted using in-house-made $25cm^2$ MEAs. The voltage-current density data were collected under three different cell temperatures ($50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$) and four different methanol feed concentrations (1 M, 2 M, 3 M, and 4 M). The experimental data indicate that the measured I-V curves are significantly altered, depending on these conditions. On the other hand, previously developed one-dimensional, two-phase DMFC model is simulated under the same operating conditions used in the experiments. The model predictions compare well with the experimental data over a wide range of these operating conditions, which demonstrates the validity and accuracy of the present DMFC model. Furthermore, both simulation and experimental results exhibit the strong influences of methanol and water crossover rates through the membrane on DMFC performance and I-V curve characteristics.

For commercialization of polymer electrolytemembrane fuel cell (PEMFC), durability of membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) has to be improved. Especially, long-term stability of MEA is one of the most important issues for frequent shut-down and start-up processes of PEMFC. The degradation of MEA could be attributed to chemical attack of hydrogen peroxide radicals that are formed at high cell voltages without any special treatment to remove residual hydrogen from anode gas channel after shut-down of the fuel cell. In this study, we investigated the long-term stability of MEA under different on/off operation conditions. Residential hydrogen gas was removed from the anode flow channel by purging air or nitrogen. Also, a dummy resistance was applied to the fuel cell to exhaust residential hydrogen at the anode. In these cases, MEA showed much more stable durability. Electrochemical characteristics of the fuel cell were measured byrepeating the on/off cycles with the hydrogen removal processes. Also, degradation of MEA components was examined by SEM, TEM and XRD analyses.

InGaAs 박막의 facet 성장을 연구하기 위하여 triethygallium(TEGa), trimethylindium (TMIn)과 사전 열분해하지 않은 monoethylarsine (MEAs)을 사용하여 chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) 법으로 InGaAs 박막을 선택적으로 성장시켰다. 성장 온도와 패턴의 방향에 따라 facet 형성이 매우 다르게 나타났다. 마스크를 [11] 방향으로 제작한 기판에서는 facet의 면이 (311), (377)과 (11)의 여러 면이 형성되었으나 성장 온도가 올라감에 따라 (311)한 면으로 발전하였다. 또한 마스크를 [011]방향으로 하였을 때는, 성장 온도가 증가함에 따라 facet은 (11)h가 (111)면에서 (111)면으로 변하였다. 이러한 결과들은 측면에서 원료가스의 표면 이동 거리가 성장 온도에 따라서 변화하는 차이에 기인하는 것으로 믿어진다. U자 형태를 가지는 (100)의 윗면은 간단한 dangling bond 모형으로 설명할수 있었다.
