  • 본 연구에서는 황화납(PbS)과 황화카드뮴(CdS)을 감응물질로 하는 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 만들고 효율을 측정하였다. Sputter를 이용하여 고진공의 상태에서 산화아연(ZnO) film을 seed layer로 증착한 후 수열합성법으로 ZnO 나노선을 합성한다. 합성된 나노선을 successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) 법으로 PbS, CdS 양자점을 합성하고 이를 주사전자 현미경(SEM), X-선 회절(XRD)을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 PbS와 CdS의 co-sensitizer를 합성하고 diffused reflectance spectra (DRS)를 측정함으로써 넓은 범위의 광흡수도를 확인할 수 있었다. Co-sensitizer의 합성 방법을 달리하여 PbS/CdS를 합성한 후 각각의 효율을 측정해보고, 더 높은 효율을 내기 위한 방안에 대해 고찰하였다.

  • This study investigated temporal and spatial variation of Pb and stable Pb isotopes accumulated in Ulleung Basin core sediments (4) using MC ICP/MS in order to identify the sources of anthropogenic Pb in the East/Japan Sea. Leached (1M HCl) Pb concentration and isotope ratios ($^{207}Pb/^{206}Pb\;and\;^{208}Pb/^{206}Pb$) were nearly constant during 300 yrs past than 1930, but increased up to twice in concentration and as much as 3.41% (1.70%) after 2000. On the other hand, residual Pb concentrations were nearly constant for past 400 yrs. The accumulation rates of anthropogenic Pb in the basin area were in the range of $3.1-3.5mg/m^2/yr$, which were similar levels to total atmospheric Pb deposition fluxes from 1990s to the present. In the slope area, more increase of anthropogenic Pb accumulation than the levels expected from mass accumulation rate could be found after the middle of 1990s. From the detailed evaluation for the temporal and spatial variation of accumulation rate and isotope ratios of anthropogenic Pb, we proposed probable sources and pathways of anthropogenic Pb. Pb emmision by coal burning from the China and Korea initiated the accumulation of anthropogenic Pb in the sediments of East/Japan Sea from 1930s. The accumulation of Pb increased by the addition of anti-nocking agents from both countries untill the beginning of 1990s, but from the middle of 1990s to the present, the phase-out of gasoline additives and the rapid increase of coal burning from the China maintained the atmospheric Pb levels in the Ulleung basin nearly similar to before. However, the local sources within this basin might take an important role in the rapid increase of anthropogenic Pb accumulation in slope areas from the middle of 1990s.

  • Size-controlled lead sulfide (PbS) quantum dots were synthesized by the typical hot injection method using oleic acid (OA) as the stabilizing agent. Subsequently, the ligand exchange reaction between OA and thioacetic acid (TAA) was employed to obtain TAA-capped PbS quantum dots (PbS-TAA QDs). The condensation reaction of the TAA ligands on the surfaces of the QDs enhanced the conductivity of the PbS-TAA QDs thin films by about 2-4 orders of magnitude, as compared with that of the PbS-OA QDs thin films. The electron transport mechanism of the PbS-TAA QDs thin films was investigated by current-voltage (I-V) measurements at different temperatures in the range of 293 K-473 K. We found that the charge transport was due to sequential tunneling of charge carriers via the QDs, resulting in the thermally activated hopping process of Arrhenius behavior.

  • The purpose of this study is to present suggestions to improve the problems the domestic department stores face by analyzing and comparing the status of the development of PB which is absolutely critical for the specialized domestic department stores to survive, and to search for the future course which may lead to boosting sales and profit by developing the strategic PB products. Selected for this study were atotal of 20 PB's out of domestic as well s foreign PB's in the 4 big department stores. The data were analyzed with SAS package employed as per the by items frequency, percent, mean and standard deviation. From the above study, following viewpoints can be taken into account for the future development of PB ; First, the active will of the excutive is basically necessary for successful development of PB, by relying on long-term investment. Second, the existing mid or low-price goods should be in line with the mid or high price one's development for domestic merchandising with focus on middle or high class society. Third, the stock burden, biggest problem of PB, can be solved by discount policy at optimum prices and success rate of merchandising prediction.

  • This study examined the factors(intrinsic cues, extrinsic cues, private brands familarity, store loyalty) influencing clothing PB preference of large-scale discount stores, and investigated the differences according to the consumer's decision types. Questionaries were collected from 316 female customers in front of the discount stores and the data were analyzed by SPSS 12.0 using T-test, correlation, regression analysis and cluster analysis. The results were as follows. First of all, According to the correlation and regression analysis, the private brand preference were influenced by store loyalty and PB familiarity. Secondly, Differences are found according to the consumer's decision types. That is the price-conscions consumers regard store loyalty, PB familiarity, extrinsic cues, and PB preference more importantly than the value-conscious consumers.

  • We have applied Pb2+ to the structural analysis of 5S rRNA from Pseudomonas alcaligenes. The mode of Pb2+-induced clevage on 5S rRNA has shown several specific features which may be utilized for the examination of tertiary structure of 5S rRNA: Pb2+ does not attack the stable helical stems; single stranded regions or bulges are attacked in variable susceptibilities depending on the positions of the sequences or the bases on the molecule; unstable helical region d is not attacked at all; only 3' sided strand of unstable helical stem C is weakly attacked, leaving 5' sided strand unattacked. Based on the Pb2+ cleavage properties and the structural analysis of Xanthomonas celebensis 5S rRNA, we have proposed a working hypothesis for the tertiary interactions in 5S rRNA.

  • The effects of ZnS insertion on the characteristics of CaS:Pb phosphor were investigated. The intensity of photoluminescence of ZnS inserted CaS:Pb excited by 347nm were increased while that excited by 254nm was unchanged, compared to those of CaS:Pb thin film. The electroluminescent display having ZnS inserted CaS:Pb showed lower threshold voltage and higher efficiency than those of CaS:Pb ELD device.

  • $Pb_{x}Cd_{1-x}S$ films are prepared in the composition range of 0.05${\leq}x{\leq}$0.25, using a chemical bath deposition growth technique under optimum conditions amide at realizing good photo response. The x-ray diffraction results show that the films are of PbS-CdS composite with individual CdS and PbS planes. The films exhibit two direct band gaps, 2.4 eV attributed to CdS, while the other varies continuously from 2.4 eV to 1.3 eV. The films surface morphology is smooth with crystallite, whose grain size increases with increasing mole fraction (x). The decrease in band gap with increase in lead concentration suggests inter-metallic compound of PbS (Eg=0.41 eV) with CdS (Eg=2.4 eV)

  • An electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) investigation can provide quantitative and qualitative insight into the nature of the surface and bulk chemistry on solidified waste forms(SWF). The proportion of Pb in grain areas is below 0.3 wt. %, and the proportion near the border of the grain slightly increases to 0.98 wt. % but in the inter-particle areas farther from the grain, the concentration of Pb markedly increases. It is apparent that very little Pb diffuses into the tricalcium silicate($C_3S$) particles and most of the Pb exists as precipitates of sulfate, hydroxide, and carbonate in the cavity areas between $C_3S$ grains. Calcite additions on Pb-doped SWF are also observed to induce deeper incorporation of lead into the cement grains with EPMA line-analysis of cross-sections of cement grains. The line-analysis reveals the presence of $0.2{\sim}5$ weight % Pb over $5\;{\mu}m$ from cement grain boundaries. In the inter-particle areas, the ratio of Ca, Si, Al and S to Pb is relatively similar even at some distance from the grain border and the Pb (wt. %) ratio is reasonably constant throughout the whole inter-particles area. It is apparent that the enhanced development of C-S-H on addition of calcite can increasingly absorbs lead species within the silica matrix.

  • Electrically-induced strain and polarization studies of the (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbZrO3 crystalline solutions have been done. Dielectric constants with temperature were investigated for 0$\leq$x$\leq$0.95. With increasing PbZrO3 content the transition maxima were found to move to higher temperature region and DPT (Diffused Phase Transition) properties were decreased for x$\leq$0.60. Phase transition between ferroelectric states and antiferroelectric states was confirmed for 0.93$\times$10-3 for 0.4
