가스센서는 사내 및 산업 환경에서의 유독성 또는 폭발성 가스 검출, 환경 모니터링, 질병 진단 등 매우 다양한 응용분야에서 큰 관심을 가지고 있다. 반도체 금속산화물(SMOs) 기반의 센서 분야에서는 이들의 감도 및 선택성을 향상시키기 위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 이는 센서의 선택성을 부여하게 되면 다양한 가스들이 존재하는 환경에서도 검출자가 원하는 가스만의 응답을 얻을 수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 MOF(Metal-Organic Framwork) 기반 멤브레인으로 ZIF-8(Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks 구조들 중 하나) 멤브레인 쉘 층을 이용하여 ZnO 나노선에 형성하였다. ZnO 나노선은 VLS공정 (Vapor-Liquid-Solid)을 이용하여 패턴된 전극을 갖는 $SiO_2$-grown Si 웨이퍼 상에 성장되었고, 성장된 ZnO 나노선은 2-methyl imidazole과 methanol이 포함된 고용체에 넣고 폐쇄된 압력용기 속에서 가열시켜 얻게 된다. 이렇게 얻어진 ZIF-8@ZnO 나노선의 ZIF-8 멤브레인은 분자 체 구조(molecular sieving structure)를 갖게 되며, 이들의 pore 크기는 약 $3.4{\AA}$을 갖는다. 따라서 이보다 더 큰 동적 직경을(kinetic diameter) 갖는 가스 종은 이 멤브레인을 통과할 수 없음을 나타내므로 제작된 시편은 $H_2$(kinetic diameter : $2.89{\AA}$), $C_7H_8$(kinetic diameter : $5.92{\AA}$), 그리고 $C_6H_6$(kinetic diameter : $5.27{\AA}$) 가스들을 각각 사용함으로써 ZIF-8@ZnO 나노선의 센서 특성을 조사했으며, 보다 정확한 비교를 위해 순수한 ZnO 나노선 역시 동일한 조건에서 측정되었다. 결과를 통해, 수소 가스를 제외한 다른 가스들에 대해서는 반응을 하지 않고, 오직 수소 가스에 대해서만 반응을 나타냈으며, 순수 ZnO 나노선의 수소 감응도보다 낮은 감응도를 나타내었다. 이는 멤브레인 쉘 층을 형성함으로써 ZnO 나노선의 표면적이 감소해 가스 분자와의 접촉점을 감소시키기 때문이라고 판단된다. 이와 같은 MOF 멤브레인의 캡슐화 전략은 가스센서뿐 아니라 바이오 센서 및 광촉매 등과 같은 이온 선택성을 필요로 하는 다양한 응용분야에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this paper is to judge the damage cause of instrument transformer(MOF; Metering Out Fit) installed in 22.9kV power receiving system. In the three-dimensional analysis of the restored MOF, the damage pattern progressed from inside to outside, there was no damaged part in the upside. The resistance of the carbonized middle part is roughly $100\kappa\Omega$ and the exothermic temperature at inside is presumed as about $300\~800^{\circ}C$ in the result of metallurgical structure analysis. The structure and the composition rate on metal surface by SEM is similar. In the result of FT-IR analysis, we can observe the absorbtion peak at $1500cm^{-1}\;and\;1730 cm^{-1}$ is small. The high exothermic peak showed at the center part of the coil in the result of DTA.

Recently, the control of pore-characteristics of nano-porous materials has been studied extensively because of their unique applications, which includes size-selective separation, gas adsorption/storage, heterogeneous catalysis, etc. The most widely adopted techniques for controlling pore characteristics include the utilization of pillar effect by metal oxide and of templates such as zeolites. More recently, coordination polymers constructed by transition metal ions and bridging organic ligands have afforded new types of nano-porous materials, porous metal-organic framework(porous MOF), with high degree and uniformity of porosity. The pore characteristics of these porous MOFs can be designed by controlling the coordination number and geometry of selected metal, e.g transition metal and rare-earth metal, and the size, rigidity, and coordination site of ligand. The synthesis of porous MOF by the assembly of metal ions with di-, tri-, and poly-topic N-bound organic linkers such as 4,4'-bipyridine(BPY) or multidentate linkers such as carboxylates, which allow for the formation of more rigid frameworks due to their ability to aggregate metal ions into M-O-C cluster, have been reported. Other porous MOF from co-ligand system or the ligand with both C-O and C-N type linkage can afford to control the shape and size of pores. Furthermore, for the rigidity and thermal stability of porous MOF, ring-type ligand such as porphyrin derivatives and ligands with ability of secondary bonding such as hydrogen and ionic bonding have been studied.

A new three-dimensional Gd-MOF, [Gd(p-XBP4)₄(H₂O)]·W(CN)₈; (1; p-XBP4 = N,N'-p-phenylenedimethylenbis (pyridin-4-one)) has been synthesized by slow-evaporation and its crystal structure was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis. For each Gd^III ion, there are seven coordination sites, which are occupied by six oxygen atoms of six p-XBP4 ligands and one oxygen atom from the water molecule. The [W(CN)₈]^3- anion exists for charge balance with cationic framework. The Gd^II ions are interconnected by the p-XBP4 ligand to form the three-dimensional structure. Considering the magnetic property of lanthanide ions, magnetic studies of Gd-MOF were investigated by direct-current (DC) magnetic susceptibilities measurements.

Gas separation technology becomes more useful because key gases such as H₂ and CO₂ regarding renewable energy resources and environmental pollutant can be effectively extracted in mixed gases. For reducing energy consumption on gas separation, membrane and adsorption processes are widely used. In both processes, porous materials are needed as membrane and adsorbent. In particular, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), one class of the porous materials, have been developed for the purpose of gas adsorption and separation. While the number of the MOF structures is increasing due to chemical and structural tunability, good MOF membranes and adsorbents have been rarely reported by trial-and-error experiments. To accelerate the discovery of high-performing porous materials that can separate H₂ and CO₂, a high-throughput computational screening technique was used as efficient skill. This review introduces crucial studies of porous materials and the high-throughput computational screening works focusing on gas separation of H₂ and CO₂.

Gas-sensor technology for volatile organic compounds (VOC) biomarker detection offers significant advantages for noninvasive diagnostics, including rapid response time and low operational costs, exhibiting promising potential for disease diagnosis. Colorimetric gas sensors, which enable intuitive analysis of gas concentrations through changes in color, present additional benefits for the development of personal diagnostic kits. However, the traditional method of visually monitoring these sensors can limit quantitative analysis and consistency in detection threshold evaluation, potentially affecting diagnostic accuracy. To address this, we developed a machine vision platform based on metal-organic framework (MOF) for colorimetric gas sensor arrays, designed to accurately detect disease-related VOC biomarkers. This platform integrates a CMOS camera module, gas chamber, and colorimetric MOF sensor jig to quantitatively assess color changes. A specialized machine vision algorithm accurately identifies the color-change Region of Interest (ROI) from the captured images and monitors the color trends. Performance evaluation was conducted through experiments using a platform with four types of low-concentration standard gases. A limit-of-detection (LoD) at 100 ppb level was observed. This approach significantly enhances the potential for non-invasive and accurate disease diagnosis by detecting low-concentration VOC biomarkers and offers a novel diagnostic tool.

Hydrogen adsorption mechanism onto the porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been studied by density functional theory calculation. The selected functionals for the predict ion of interact ion energies between hydrogen and potential adsorption sites of MOF was utilized after the evaluation with the various functionals for interaction energy of $H_2C_6H_6$ model system the adsorption energy of hydrogen molecule into MOF was investigated with the consideration of the favorable adsorption sites and the orientations. We also calculated the second favorable adsorption sites by geometry optimization using every combination of two first absorbed hydrogen molecules. Based on the calculation of first and second adsorption sites and energies, the hydrogen adsorption into MOF follows a cooperative mechanism in which the initial metal sites initiate the propagation of the hydrogen adsorption on the whole frameworks. In addition, it was found that the interaction strength between the simple benzene ring with hydrogen is significantly reinforced when the benzene ring has been incorporated into the framework of MOFs.

In this study, an amperometric non-enzymatic glucose sensor was developed on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode by simply drop-casting the synthesized homogeneous suspension of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanosheets with a copper metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) composite. Comprehensive analytical methods, including field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and amperometry, were used to investigate the surface and electrochemical characteristics of the h-BN-Cu-MOF composite. The FE-SEM, FT-IR, and XRD results showed that the h-BN-Cu-MOF composite was formed successfully and exhibited a good porous structure. The electrochemical results showed a sensor sensitivity of $18.1{\mu}A{\mu}M^{-1}cm^{-2}$ with a dynamic linearity range of $10-900{\mu}M$ glucose and a detection limit of $5.5{\mu}M$ glucose with a rapid turnaround time (less than 2 min). Additionally, the developed sensor exhibited satisfactory anti-interference ability against dopamine, ascorbic acid, uric acid, urea, and nitrate, and thus, can be applied to the design and development of non-enzymatic glucose sensors.

Asymmetric recognition of chiral alcohol by fluorenone derivatives with chiral substituents through intermolecular hydrogen bonding interaction in the singlet excited state was attempted. 1-((1S, 2R, 5S)-(+)-Menthyloxycarbonyl)aminofluoren-9-one (1-MAF) and 1-((1S, 2R, 5S)-(+)-menthyloxycarbonyl)oxyfluoren-9-one (1-MOF) were synthesized and their photophysical behaviors were characterized by the measurement of absorption and fluorescence spectra, as well as the quantum yield and the lifetime of fluorescence. The excited singlet states of 1-MAF and 1-MOF were revealed to have characteristics similar to those of fluorenone, though the intramolecular CT nature was fairly suppressed as compared with 3- and 4-substituted aminofluorenones. Fluorescences of 1-MAF and 1-MOF in acetonitrile were quenched by the addition of alcohols. Differences in fluorescence quenching efficiency were hardly observe for rather small chiral alcohols such as (R)-(-)- or (S)-(+)-2-butanol, while bulky alcohols such as menthol and isopinocampheol showed chiral recognition effects in their fluorescence quenching of 1-MAF in either acetonitrile or butyronitrile.

This study was carried out to examine not only the effect and the process of activation of aluminum sulfate for the manufacture of PB and MDF, but also application of the activation treatment to PB and MOF made with MDI adhesive. The results were as follows: 1. For the manufacture of PB, activating effect did not take place Because the low moisture content of 30% in the process of activation treatment made probably insufficient activation. It needs to examine higher moisture content for the uniform and enough activation same as that of MOF. 2. In the case of MOF, Activating effect was excellent, it showed not only better results of MOR 48%, MOE 29%, IB 60% than those of the control but also better dimensional stability. 3. Application of alum activation to the PB and MDF made with MDI adhesive yielded no effects. Maybe it was the reson that the curing mechanism of MDI is different. 4. Modifing the wood surface was the oxidation and wettability was not the variable limiting glueline performance. It is necessary to make a more study about activating reaction.
