A method of detecting lead was developed using square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) with DNA-carbon nanotube paste electrode (CNTPE). The results indicated a sensitive oxidation peak current of lead on the DNA-CNTPE. The curves were obtained within a concentration range of 50 $ngL^{-1}-20mgL^{-1}$ with preconcentration time of 100, 200, and 400 sec at the concentration of $mgL^{-1}$, ${\mu}gL^{-1}$, and $ngL^{-1}$, respectively. The observed relative standard deviation was 0.101% (n = 12) in the lead concentration of 30.0 ${\mu}gL^{-1}$ under optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at 8 $ngL^{-1}$ ($2.6{\times}10^{-8}M$). Results showed that the developed method can be used in real-time assay in vivo without requiring any pretreatment and pharmaceutical samples, and food samples, as well as other materials requiring water source contamination analyses.

기존의 고온에서 제작되는 TiO2 나노 입자를 이용한 염료감응형 태양전지를 저온에서 제작하기 위해 전자 이동층으로 ZnO 나노 입자를 사용하여, 저온($200^{\circ}C$)에서 염료감응태양전지(DSSC)를 제작하였다[1,2]. 상대전극(counter electrode)으로는 RF magnetron sputtering을 사용하여 ITO/glass위에 Pt를 증착하여 태양전지의 특성을 측정하였다. $180^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 hydropolymer가 증발되는 것을 이용하여, ZnO 나노입자와 hydropolymer 혼합한 paste 제작하여 소결 후 ZnO 나노입자 사이에 다공성을 생성시켜 Dye가 잘 침투하여 ZnO 나노입자 표면에 잘 흡착 되도록 하였다[3]. 20 nm 및 60 nm 크기의 ZnO 나노 입자를 사용하여 실험 해본 결과, 20 nm에 비하여 60 nm ZnO 나노입자의 경우 IPCE 값이 약 7% 정도로 높은 전환효율 값을 보였다. 60 nm ZnO 나노입자를 전자 수송층으로 사용한 DSSC 소자에서 단위면적당 흐르는 전류(Jsc), 전압 (Voc), fill factor (ff), 그리고 효율(${\eta}$)의 최대값은 4.93 mA/$cm^2$, 0.56V, 0.40, and 1.12%, 로 보였다.

Thermoelectric-thick films were fabricated by using a screen printing process of n and p-type bismuth-telluride-based pastes. The screen-printed thick films have approximately 30 ${\mu}m$ in thickness and show rough surfaces yielding an empty gap between an electrode and the thick film. The gap might result in an increase of an electrical resistivity of the fabricated thick-film-type thermoelectric module. In this study, we suggest a conductive metal coating onto the surfaces of the screen-printed paste in order to reduce the contact resistance in the module. As a result, the electrical resistivity of the thermoelectric module having a gold coating layer was significantly reduced up to 30% compared to that of a module without any metal coating. This result indicates that an introduction of conductive metal layers is effective to decrease the contact resistivity of a thick-film-typed thermoelectric module processed by screen printing.

Oxides of the form $Mn_{3}O_4$-$Co_{3}O_4$-NiO present properties that make them useful as multilayer chip NTC thermistor for mobile communication telephone. When $Mn_{2}Ni_{x}CO_{1-x}O_4$ composition with the X = 0.12$\sim$0.24 at sintered temperature 1250$^{\circ}C$, resistivity and B-constant were 300$\sim$450[${\Omega}-cm$] and 3250$\sim$3450, respectively. Multilayer chip NTC(Negative Temperature Coefficient) resistor were fabricated with 4 layer by a conventional multilayer capacitor techniques, using 100 pd paste as internal electrode and $Mn_{2}Ni_{0.20}CO_{0.8}O_4$ composition as NTC materials. In particular, resistance change ratio (${\Delta}R$), the important factor for reliability, varied within $\pm$3%, indicating the compositions of multilayer chip NTC thermistor products could be available for mobile communication telephone.

Electrical resistivity of a rock-sample is dependant on not only formation factor of rock itself but also many parameters such as fluid type, measuring device, temperature, water saturation, electrical contact between electrode and core section, induced polarization, and frequency of electric source. In this study, we attempt to verify various affecting factors in core resistivity measurements and to find a better environment for core resistivity measurement. Particularly great attention has been paid to understanding the effects of temperature, water saturation, contact condition between sample and electrodes, and frequency of electric source. Precise measurement of resistivity can be achieved by utilizing silver paste for better contacts, taping samples for constant moisture contents, and using time-series resistivity data.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of $V_2$$O_{5}$ addition on the Ag and Cu precipitation in the NiCuZn ferrite layers of 7.7${\times}$4.5${\times}$1.0 mm sized multi-layer chip inductors prepared by the screen printing method using 0∼0.5 wt% $V_2$$O_{5}$ -doped ferrite pastes. With increasing the $V_2$$O_{5}$ content and sintering temperature, Ag and Cu oxide coprecipitated more and more at the polished surface of ferrite layers during re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$. It was thought that during the sintering process, V dissolved in the NiCuZn ferrite lattice and the Ag-Cu liquid phase of low melting point was formed in the ferrite layers due to the Cu segregation from the ferrite lattice and Ag diffusion from the internal electrode. During re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$, the Ag-Cu liquid phase came out the polished surface of ferrite layers, and was decomposed into the isolated Ag particles and the Cu oxide phase during the cooling process.

Characteristics of Pb(Mg, Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$system thick films fabricated by a screen printing method were investigated. The buffer layer were coated with various thickness of Ag-Pd by screen printing to investigate the effect as a diffusion barrier and deposited Pt as a electrode by sputtering on Ag-Pb layer. The printed thick films were burned out at 650$\^{C}$ and sintered at 950$\^{C}$ in O$_2$condition for each 20, 60min after printing with 350mesh screen. The thickness of piezoelectric thick film was 15∼20㎛ and Ag-Pb layer acted as a diffusion barrier above 3㎛ thickness. The PMN-PZT thick films were screen printed on Pt/Ag-Pb(6m) and sintered by 2nd step (650$\^{C}$/20min and 950$\^{C}$/1h) using paste mixed PMN-PZT and binder in the ratio of 70:30, and the remnant polarization of thick film was 9.1$\mu$C/㎠ in this conditions.

A biosensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide was constructed by immobilizing of porcine small instestinal tissue in a plain carbon paste, and the effect of varying the $H_2O_2$ concentration and pH on the rate of catalytic reaction was evaluated. For the mathematical simplicity, no mediator was added. Electrochemical properties and the maximal rate could be derived from the quantitative analysis of the observed phenomena related to the electrode reaction. Also, pH dependence of the Michaelis constant enabled to calculate various thermodynamic parameters and subsequently to design a electrochemical method to determine the optimum pH of enzyme.

In this study, we used screen printing on the rear glass with silver electrodes, phosphor and a dielectric which is on the silver electrodes, and carried out firing in the temperature of $550^{\circ}C$, $570^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$ each. To seal the rear and top glass together, we used crystalline frit paste as a sealing material with dispenser and carried out firing up to $450^{\circ}C$. As using this panel, we focused on optimizing the condition which influences characteristics of discharging by the distance between electrodes, electrode structure, type and pressure of gases for FFL.
