The geometrical structures, atomic charges, and relative energies of tetracoordinated Pd complexes [PdCl3Z (Z = Cl-, Br-, OH?-, H2O, NH3, PH3), PdCl2Z2 (Z = Br-, OH?-, H2O, NH3, PH3), PdZ?2X (Z = Cl-, OH?-, H2O, NH3, PH3; X = oxalate, O2-?CCO2-), and PdZ2Y (Z = Cl?-, OH?-, H2O, NH3, PH3; Y = succinate, CO2-?CHCHCO2-?)] and the ligand exchange reactions of the Pd complexes were investigated using the ab initio second order Mller-Plesset perturbation (MP2) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods. The geometrical characteristics of the tetracoordinated Pd(II) complexes with mono- and bidentate ligands, the effects of the atomic charges for the charged and uncharged ligands, the (dz2-p ) interactions between the dz2-orbital of Pd(II) and the p -orbital of bidentates, and the relative stabilities between the isomers of PdCl2Z2 and PdZ2Y were investigated in detail. The potential energy surfaces for the ligand exchange reactions used for the conversions of {[PdCl2(NH3)2] + H2O} to {[PdCl(NH3)2(H2O)]+ + Cl?-?} and {[PdCl2(PH3)2] + H2O} to {[PdCl(PH3)2(H2O)]+ + Cl?-?]} were investigated. The geometrical structure variations, molecular orbital variations (HOMO and LUMO), and relative stabilities for the ligand exchange processes were also examined quantitatively.

유기발광소자는 낮은 구동전압, 빠른 응답속도, 넓은 시야각 등의 장점으로 소형 디스플레이에 사용되며 차세대 조명으로 관심을 받고 있다. 고효율의 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위해서 다양한 유기 인광물질 합성 및 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 다양한 호스트 물질을 사용하여 전자와 정공의 주입을 향상하여 고효율의 인광 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 본 논문에서는 발광층에 N,N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene (mCP)와 1,3,5-tri(phenyl-2-benzimidazole)-benzene (TPBi)를 혼합 호스트로 사용하였으며 tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium ($Ir(ppy)_3$)청색 인광물질을 도핑하여 고효율의 인광 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 유기발광소자의 발광층에 단일 호스트와 혼합 호스트의 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 비교 분석하여 전자 및 정공 수송 메커니즘을 규명하였다. 혼합 호스트 TPBi의 lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) 준위와 엑시톤 저지층 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP)의 LUMO 준위와 비슷하여 전자의 주입을 향상시키는 역할을 하며, 다른 혼합 호스트 mCP는 highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)와 정공수송층 N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB)의 HOMO와 비슷하여 정공의 주입을 향상시키는 역할을 하여, $Ir(ppy)_3$에 전자와 정공의 주입이 향상되어 고 효율의 인광 유기발광소자를 제작할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 실험결과는 인광 유기발광소자의 호스트 물질에 따른 전하주입 메커니즘을 설명 하였으며 고효율의 인광 유기발광소자 제작에 도움을 줄 것이다.

유기발광소자는 다른 디스플레이에 비해 높은 명암비와 색재현성의 장점을 갖는 차세대 디스플레이로서, 얇은 박막 특성을 가지고 있기때문에 모바일용 디스플레이 기술로 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 낮은 발광효율, 높은 구동전압 및 전압에 따른 색좌표 변화의 문제점을 가지고 있어 이를 극복하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 유기 발광 소자의 발광효율을 높이며 구동 전압을 낮추기 위해 호스트물질에 다양한 도펀트를 도핑하고 있다. 높은 발광효율을 가지는 도펀트인 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene (rubrene)을 사용한 유기발광소자는 rubrene의 안정된 분자 에너지 레벨로 인해 전자들이 포획되는 현상이 나타나 효율이 감소되는 원인이 규명되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 rubrene을 발광층으로 사용하여, 전공수송층인 N,N_-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N_-diphenyl-1,1-biphenyl-4,4-diamine (NPB)의 두께에 따른 I-V 변화와 전계발광 스펙트럼를 분석하여 두께에 따른 rubrene의 전자 포획를 관찰하였다. rubrene보다 큰 lowest unoccupied molecular orbital 에너지를 갖는 NPB와 에너지장벽으로 낮은 highest occupied molecular orbital 에너지를 갖는 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline을 각각 교차되게 적층한 유기발광소자의 I-V 변화와 전자 전공 재결합층의 위치변화에 따른 전계발광 스펙트럼을 비교 분석하였다. 이 결과는 발광층 내부의 rubrene의 상대적인 위치와 에너지장벽과의 상관관계에 따른 전자 포획 메커니즘을 이해하는데 도움 줄 것이다.

들뜬상태의 소랄렌 유도체와 바닥상태의 티민 사이에 형성되는 분자착물의 형태를 분자궤도 함수법으로 고찰하였다. PM3-CI-UHF법으로 계산한 결과는 메틸소랄렌 및 하이드록시소랄렌의 C3-C4 이중결합과 C4'-C5' 이중결합과 티민의 C5-C6 이중결합과 광고리화 반응이 일어남을 프론티어궤도의 상호작용으로 설명하고, 이들 화합물의 들뜬상태에서 전자구조를 구조-활성화 관계로 논의하였다.

We fabricated a pentacene thin film transistor with Poly-vinylalcohol (PVA) as a dielectric. And we used Poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as a buffer layer to improve the electrical characteristics. PVK is a material used often host material for OLED device, as it has good film forming properties, large HOMO-LUMO(highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) bandgap. The performance of a OTFT device with PVA gate dielectric was improved by using the PVK. Field effect mobility, threshold voltage, and on-off current ratio of device with PVK layer were about 0.6 $cm^2$/Vs, -17V, and $5\times10^5$, respectively.

We have determined the electronic energy level alignment at the interface between 4,4'-bis-N-phenyl-1-naphthylamino biphenyl (NPB) and 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylenehexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN) using ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of 20 nm thick HAT-CN film was located at 3.8 eV below the Fermi level. Thus the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is very close to the Fermi level. The HOMO position of NPB was only about 0.3 eV below Fermi level at NPB/HAT-CN interface. This enables an easy excitation of electrons from the NPB HOMO to the HAT-CN LUMO, creating electron-hole pairs across this organic-organic interface. We also study the interaction of HAT-CN with a few metallic surfaces including Ca, Cu, and ITO using UPS and ab-inito electronic structure calculation techniques.

New electron deficient acceptor-acceptor-acceptor type of monomer unit composed of weak electron accepting benzimidazole and relatively strong electron accepting benzothiadiazole derivatives namely 4,7-bis(6-bromo-1-(2-ethylhexyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (BBB) was synthesized. The Stille polycondensation of the newly synthesized BBB monomer with electron donating 2,6-bis(trimethyltin)-4,8-bis(2-ethylhexyloxy)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene (BDT) afforded donor-acceptor-acceptor-acceptor type of polymer namely 2,6-(4,8-bis(2-ethylhexyloxy)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene)-alt-4,7-bis(1-(2-ethylhexyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (PBDTBBB). The opto-electrical studies revealed that the absorption band of PBDTBBB appeared in the range of 300 nm-525 nm and its highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels were positioned at -5.18 eV and -2.84 eV, respectively. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the polymer solar cell (PSC) prepared from PBDTBBB:PC71BM (1:2 wt %) blend was 1.90%.

In this study, we report the mercury ions ($Hg^{2+}$) mediated phosphorus-containing carbon dots (PCDs) as a selective "off-on" fluorescence probe for glutathione (GSH), cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcys). PCDs obtained by hydrothermal reaction are sensitive to $Hg^{2+}$ ions and its fluorescence can be significantly quenched owing to the electron transfer from the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of PCDs to $Hg^{2+}$. Interestingly, the weak fluorescence of $Hg^{2+}$-mediated PCDs could be gradually recovered with the addition of GSH, Cys and Hcys. This can be attributed to the formation of $Hg^{2+}-S$ complex due to the super affinity of $Hg^{2+}$-sulfydryl bond. The formation of $Hg^{2+}-S$ complex extremely reduces the oxidation ability of $Hg^{2+}$ that inhibits the electron transfer from LUMO of PCDs to $Hg^{2+}$ and re-opens the native electron transition from LUMO to the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of PCDs. Thus, the green fluorescence of PCDs is switched on. Furthermore, the present $Hg^{2+}$-mediated PCDs assay exhibits a high selectivity for GSH, Cys and Hcy and has been successfully used to detect the total biothiols content in human urine samples.

Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations have been employed to investigate the molecular structures and absorption spectra of two dyes containing diphenylaniline and 4-diphenylamino-diphenylaniline as donor moiety (TPA1 and TPA3). The geometries indicate that the strong conjugation is formed in the dyes. The electronic structures suggest that the intramolecular charge transfer from the donor to the acceptor occurs, and the electron-donating capability of 4-diphenylamino-diphenylaniline is stronger than that of diphenylaniline. The computed highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels are -5.31 and -4.90 eV, while the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energies are -2.29 and -2.26 eV for TPA1 and TPA3, respectively, revealing that the interfacial charge transfer between the dyes and the semiconductor electrode are electron injection processes from the photon-excited dyes to the semiconductor conduction band. Furthermore, all the experimental absorption bands of TPA1 and TPA3 have been assigned according to the TDDFT calculations.

In order to understand alloying effects on the corrosion resistance of Ti-(10$\sim$20)%Zr-(2$\sim$8%)Nb-0.2%Pd alloys, Polarization curves were measured at 5%HCI solution. The results were interpreted in terms of two parameters obtained by the molecular orbital calculation ; one is the bond order($B_{\circ}$) and the other is the metal d-orbital level($M_{d}$). $B_{\circ}$ is a measure of the strength of covalent bonds between titanium and alloying elements. $M_{d}$ is correlative with the electronegativity of elements. It was found that increasing of Zr and Nb with higher $B_{\circ}$ values showed a lower critical anodic current density in the polarization curve and hence higher corrosion resistance. On the other hand, increasing of Zr and Nb with higher $M_{d}$ values showed a higher corrosion resistance.
