본 연구에서는 황화납(PbS)을 감응 물질로 하는 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 제작하고 효율을 측정해보았다. 기판에 진공증착을 통해 seed layer를 형성하고 수열합성법으로 산화아연(ZnO) 나노선 어레이를 기른 후 SILAR(Successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction)법으로 PbS 양자점을 합성하였고, 농도와 cycle에 따른 특성의 변화를 주사전자현미경(SEM), X-선 회절, UV-visible spectrometer를 통해 확인하였다. SILAR법을 통해 PbS가 ZnO 나노선 위에 film 형태로 균일하게 성장한 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 이렇게 합성한 물질을 직접 태양전지로 제작하여 그 효율을 측정하였다. 또한 co-sensitizer 물질로 CdS를 합성하여 두 물질의 감응 물질로서의 성능을 확인하였다. PbS는 비교적 작은 밴드갭을 가지며 양자 제한 효과가 커 밴드갭 조절이 용이하며 여러 종류의 태양전지에서 이용되고 있다. 이러한 PbS를 감응 물질로 하는 양자점 감응형 태양전지 제작을 통해 태양전지에의 적용 가능성을 살펴보고 그러기 위해 필요한 부분들을 모색해보았다.

The biosorption of heavy metals has received a lot of attraction for application of metal ions treatment. In this work, we studied with Arthrobactor sp., screening from a wastewater containing heavy metals. The Pb uptake capacity of Arthrobactor sp. was nearly 146.9 mg Pb/g dry biomass(initial concentration, 500 may L), whereas the Pb uptake capacity of Sacchuomyces cerevisiae and Sacchuomyces uvuum were only around 39.40 and 35.65 mg Pb yg dry biomass, respectively. The Pb and Cr were removed from metal solution much more effeciently than were the other metals(Cd and Cu). The Pb uptake capacity of Aythrobactor sp. increased with increasing in pH(1.8, 3.0 and 4.0) and decreased with Increaslng of biomass concentration. At pH 4.0, the Pb uptake capacity reached 244 mg Pb/g dry biomass in Pb initial concentration of 1000 mg/L. The Pb uptake capacity of Ayhol)actor sp. treated by KOH and $CaCl_2$ were increased above values obtained with untreated Ayurobactor sp. However, the Pb uptake capacity fore the breakthrough points were reached.

This study uses first-principles calculations to investigate the mechanical properties and effect of strain on the electronic properties of the 2D material 1H-PbX₂ (X: S, Se). Firstly, the stability of the 1H Pb-dichalcogenide structures was evaluated using Born's criteria. The obtained results show that the 1H-PbS₂ material possesses the greatest ideal strength of 3.48 N/m, with 3.68 N/m for 1H-PbSe₂ in biaxial strain. In addition, 1H-PbS₂ and 1H-PbSe₂ are direct semiconductors at equilibrium with band gaps of 2.30 eV and 1.90 eV, respectively. The band gap was investigated and remained almost unchanged under the strain ε_xx but altered significantly at strains ε_yy and ε_bia. At the fracture strain in the biaxial direction (19 %), the band gap of 1H-PbS₂ decreases about 60 %, and that of 1H-PbSe₂ decreases about 50 %. 1H-PbS₂ and 1H-PbSe₂ can convert from direct to indirect semiconductor under the strain ε_yy. Our findings reveal that the two structures have significant potential for application in nanoelectronic devices.

In securities companies where corporate management performance is heavily dependent on the ability of salespeople, excellent sales-force with the ability to create high performance is very important. However, in the meantime, there was lack of studies on Private Banker's characteristics and sales behavior or sales performance. This study analyzed the effect of PB's characteristics on sales behavior in the Korean Securities Industry. The survey was conducted in March, 2013. 523 responses were used in the data analysis. As a result, PB's 4 characteristics- attitude to work, performance orientation, learning orientation, customer orientation- showed a positive impact on the sales behavior, and the organizational support showed positive moderating effect on this model. In this study, we reported that securities companies must reinforce training and self-development programs in order to improve the characteristics of the PB and to upgrade management performance. In particular, the securities has to rebuild organizational support system to improve the individual characteristics of the PB.

In this study, the chip breaking characteristics of S, PbS and BiS free machining steels have been assessed. PbS free machining steel shows the lowest value of chip thickness ($t_c$) under the same cutting conditions. SM10C steel has the largest value of the chip cross-section area ratio ($R_{CA}$). As the feed rate becomes larger the chip breaking cycle time ($T_B$) decreases and the chip breaking index ($C_B$) increases. The properly controlled-C type chip has been obtained with the value of $C_B$ between 0.05 and 0.2. Free machining steel, PbS produces the properly controlled-C type chip in a wider feed rate range than other steels.

We studied the plating properties of Sn-Pb solder according to the shape of the Cu wire's cross-section for photovoltaic ribbon. The thickness of the Sn-Pb layer largely decreased to 29% on a curved Cu surface, compared to a flat Cu surface. This phenomenon is caused by the geometrical decrease in the contact angle of the liquid Sn-Pb solder and an increase in the surface energy of the solid/vapor on the curved Cu surface. We suggest a new ribbon's design where the Cu wire's cross-section is a semi-ellipse. These semi-ellipse ribbons can decrease the use of Sn-Pb solder to 64% and increase the photovoltaic efficiency, by reducing the contact area between the ribbon and cell, to 84%. We also see an improvement of reflectivity in the curved surface.

Lead-doped calcium sulfide(CaS:Pb) thin film electroluminescent devices were deposited using atomic layer deposition(ALD). CaS:Pb is a very promising blue phosphor showing very high luminance and the color coordinate close to the blue of cathode ray tube. The luminance, $L_{25}$, of CaS:Pb(1.6 mol.%) EL device was higher than 80 $cd/cm^2$ at a driving frequency of 60Hz. The color coordinates of blue EL emission of CaS:Pb deposited by ALD are consistent with the Pb concentration ranging from approximately 0.5 to 3 mol.%.

Biosorption of Pb and Cr by Sargassum confusum was evaluatet at in the various conditions. The uptake capacities for Pb and Cr were 197.5 mg Pb/g biomass and 133.1 mg Cr/g biomass, respectively. The adsorption parameters for Pb and Cr were determined according to the Langmuir and Freundlich model. Biosorption of Pb and Cr was increased with the increase of pH value. Pb and Cr adsorbed by S. confusum could be recovered by desorption process with 0.1 M HCl, 0.1 M $HNO_3$ and 0.1 M EDTA. The ratio of Pb desorption was above $93\%$, whereas the ratio of Cr desorption was below $30\%$.

Recently, in order to improve the performance of the colloidal quantum dot solar cells (CQDSCs), various efforts such as the modification of the cell architecture and surface treatment for quantum dot (QD) passivation have been made. Especially, the incorporation of halides into the QD matrix was reported to improve the performances significantly via passivating QD trap states that lower the life-time of the minority-carrier. In this work, we fabricated a lead sulfide (PbS) QD bilayer treated with different ligands and utilized it as a photoactive layer of the CQDSCs. The bottom and top PbS layer was treated using metal iodide ($MI_x$ and butanedithiol (BuDT), respectively. All the depositions and ligand treatments were carried out in air using layer-by-layer spin-coating process. The fabrication of the active layers as well as the n-type zinc oxide (ZnO) layer was successfully carried out on the bendable indium-tin-oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, which implies that this technique can be applied to the fabrication of flexible and/or wearable solar cells. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the CQDSCs with the architecture of $PET/ITO/ZnO/PbS-MI_x/PbS-BuDT/MoO_x/Ag$ reached 4.2 %, which is significantly larger than that of the cells with single QD (PbS-BuDT) layer.

The objective of this research is to identify the factors affecting the quality perception of consumer about the private brand and to investigate how the monetary utility of the private brand affects the consumer's preference. The main finding can be summarized in three points. The consumer's usage experience with PB have a positive but store image has no significant effect on the quality perception of PB. The perceived quality and monetary utility of PB has a significant effect on the quality perception while the perceived quality has stronger effect. The competitiveness of the national brand in the same store, post-usage attitude, the perceived quality, and perceived value have significant effect on the preference toward PB but monetary utility does not. The perceived effect has the strongest effect. This result suggests that even the value-seeking consumers prefer PB only when the perceived quality exceeds a certain limits. This study provides the strategic implications for retail managers and theoretical implication for the researcher studying PB.
