본 논문에서는 금속의 표면 플라즈몬 공명으로 인한 금속-유전체 경계면에서의 국소적 전자기장의 강화 효과를 이용하여 표면 플라즈몬을 유발하는 금 박막을 유리 기판위에 증착하고, 프리즘 커플러를 이용한 소산장의 공명 흡수현상을 이차원 영상 으로 얻었다. 특히 DNA/단백질 칩 등 향후 가능한 다채널 시스템에의 응용을 고려하여11-MUA, 11-MUOH 등 자기조립 단분자막(SAM)을 크롬 마스크와 리토그래피, 그리고 Shadow mask와 광 산화반응을 이용하여 금 표면 위에 패터닝 하였다. 텅스텐-할로겐 램프와 중심파장이 ${\lambda}_0=633$ nm의 대역통과 필터를 사용하여 이 평행광을 프리즘 커플러에 입사시켜 반사되어 나오는 반사광의 이차원 영상을 얻었다. 이와는 별도로 ${\lambda}_0=633$ nm의 레이저를 이용하여 단분자막이 코팅되어 있을 때와 없을 때의 공명각의 변화를 관찰하였다. 얻어진 이차원 영상의 위치에 따른 화소 값의 변화를 단분자 막의 두께의 변화에 따라 보정하고, 알려진 매질의 SPR 특성을 Fresnel 방정식에 따라 이론적으로 계산하면 다채널 표면 영상으로부터 항원-항체 등 단백질의 결합 정도를 정량적으로 측정할 수 있다.

이차원 표면 플라즈몬의 공명 흡수와 포토 마스크를 이용하여 11-MUA(11-Mercaptoundecanoic acid)와 11-MUOH(11-Mercaptoundecanol) 둥으로 이루어진 자기조립 단분자막(Self-Assembled Monolayer; SAM)의 다채널 영상을 얻었다. 통상의 Photoresist를 이용한 리토그래피 대신에 Thiol bonding의 광산화를 이용하여 패터닝 과정을 줄이고, 백색광 및 대역통과 필터(λ$_{0}$=633nm)를 이용하여 입사광으로써 레이저를 사용할 때 나타나는 간섭무늬를 줄였다. 이로부터 나타나는 이차원 영상의 명암을 정량적으로 보정하면 수 나노미터(nm) 두께의 변화를 측정할 수 있다. 또한 표면 플라즈몬 공명법은 국소화된 근접장 (소산장)을 이용하는 방법으로서, 통상 많이 이용되는 형광법 등에서 나타나는 광탈색(Photobleaching)이나 소광(Quenching) 현상이 없이 시료의 처리가 간단하고, 영상 신호의 시간에 따른 변화가 극히 적으며, 실시간으로 신호의 변화를 측정할 수 있다는 장점이 있다.

The total mercury concentration ($Hg_T$) of surface snow samples collected along a ~1500 km transect in east Queen Maud Land was determined using inductively coupled plasma sector field mass spectrometry to address the behavior of Hg on the Antarctic Plateau. Due to the volatile nature of mercury, measures were taken against Hg loss from standard solutions by choosing appropriate container material and stabilizing agents. Glass bottles with Teflon-lined caps were superior to Teflon and polyethylene containers in protecting against Hg loss, but addition of gold chloride ($AuCl_3$) or bromine chloride (BrCl) was necessary to ensure preservation of Hg. As Hg loss was also observed in snowmelt samples, our analysis may underestimate the actual amount of HgT in the snow. Even so, the measured HgT was still very low (< 0.4-10.8 pg $g^{-1}$, n = 44) without a signal of depositional enhancement accompanying photo-oxidation of atmospheric elemental mercury in austral midsummer. Moreover, the dynamic variation along the traverse implies spatial and temporal heterogeneity in its source processes.

자외선 조사에 따른 광촉매 $TiO_2$의 표면에서 발생하는 활성산소종의 기상확산을 이용하여 실리콘기판 위에 산화박막을 성장시켰다. 자외선의 세기, 기판의 온도와 반응기 내의 산소 압력을 공정변수로 한 결과, 일정두께의 실리콘 산화박막의 성장이 자외선의 세기가 증가할수록 빨랐으며, 자외선램프의 세기를 60 W BLB 램프에서 1 kW 고압수은 랩프로 변경할 경우 성장속도가 8배 정도 빨라졌다. 반응기 내의 압력이 증가할수록 실리콘 산화박막의 성장속도는 느렸다. 대부분 산화박막의 성장은 $20{\AA}$에서 포화되었으며, 자외선의 세기가 증가할수록 포화상태까지 도달시간이 빨라졌다. 성장된 산화박막을 열처리를 통하여 전형적인 열산화막의 물성에 도달할 수 있었다. 광활성 산소종의 기상확산은 실리콘 산화박막의 저온 형성에 대한 광촉매 활용이라는 새로운 산화공정 방법으로 사용이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

$TiO_2$ composites with seven different carbon materials (activated carbons, graphite, carbon fibers, single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene oxides, and reduced graphene oxides) that are virgin or treated with nitric acid are prepared through an evaporation method. The photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared samples are evaluated in terms of $H_2$ production from aqueous methanol solution (photo-catalytic reduction: PCR) and degradation of aqueous pollutants (phenol, methylene blue, and rhodamine B) (photocatalytic oxidation: PCO) under AM 1.5-light irradiation. Despite varying effects depending on the kinds of carbon materials and their surface treatment, composites typically show enhanced PCR activity with maximum 50 times higher $H_2$ production as compared to bare $TiO_2$. Conversely, the carbon-induced synergy effects on PCO activities are insignificant for all three substrates. Colorimetric quantification of hydroxyl radicals supports the absence of carbon effects. However, platinum deposition on the binary composites displays the enhanced effect on both PCR and PCO reactions. These differing effects of carbon materials on PCR and PCO reactions of $TiO_2$ are discussed in terms of physicochemical properties of carbon materials, coupling states of $TiO_2$/carbon composites, interfacial charge transfers. Various surface characterizations of composites (UV-Vis diffuse reflectance, SEM, FTIR, surface area, electrical conductivity, and photoluminescence) are performed to gain insight on their photocatalytic redox behaviors.

We investigated the negative differential resistance (NDR) property of self-assembled 4,4-di(ethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-l-(thioacetyl)benzene ('nitro-benzene'), which has been well known as a conducting molecule [1], Self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) were prepared on Au (111), which had been thermally deposited onto pre-treated $(H_2SO_4: H_2O_2=3:1)$ Si, The Au substrate was exposed to a 1mM solution of 1-dodecanethiol in ethanol for 24 hours to form a monolayer. After thorough rinsing of the sample, it was exposed to a $0.1{\mu}M$ solution of nitro-benzene in dimethylformamide (DMF) for 30 min and kept in the dark during immersion to avoid photo-oxidation. Following the assembly, the samples were removed from the solutions, rinsed thoroughly with methanol, acetone, and $CH_2Cl_2$, and finally blown dry with $N_2$. Under these conditions, we measured the electrical properties of SAMs using ultra high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) [2]. As a result, we confirmed the properties of NDR in between the positive and negative region.

Feasibility study of using $Ti0_2$ mist generated by ultrasonic atomization for photocatalytic degradation of gaseous toluene was attempted in this study. For this, the photocatalytic reactor consisting of mist generator and photo-reactor was designed. Most of experimental results showed that steady state reached about 30 minutes after the start of experiments. The effects of $Ti0_2$ concentration, toluene concentration, and UV wavelength on toluene removal ratio were investigated. It was found that the highest removal efficiency was obtained when $Ti0_2$ concentration was 0.6 g/L in slurry. At this condition, it was found that the toluene removal efficiency increased as toluene concentration in feed decreased. In order to investigate the effect of UV wavelength, experiments were carried out using three UV lamps with different UV wavelength. The results showed that the highest removal efficiency was achieved when the lamp with the shortest wavelength were employed.

Continuous and intense UV irradiation on PTT film using two types of UV bulbs at different irradiation power level was carried out to modify surface characteristics of the film including zeta potential, wettability, surface energy, and dyeability. ESCA analysis of the irradiated film showed higher O/C ratio than the untreated film indicating photooxidation of outer surface layer. ATR analysis showed that the ester bonds were broken and some new groups were produced such as carboxylic acid, phenolic hydroxy, and other esters, implying that ester bonds of PTT was responsible for the observed photooxidation effect. The surface of the treated PTT film became more hydrophilic and wettable to water, coupled with increased surface energy. Polar component of the surface energy increased and nonpolar component decreased with increasing irradiation energy. The treatment also decreased zeta potential of the modified surface and nanoscale roughness increased with increasing irradiation. The dyeability of the treated films to catonic dyes was significantly improved by electrostatic and polar interaction between dye molecules and the anionic film surface. The UV irradiation seems to be a viable polymer surface modification technology, which has advantages such as no vacuum requirement and continuous process unlike plasma treatment.

Standard positive photoresist techniques were adapted to generate nano-scale patterns of gold substrate using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and femtosecond laser. SAMs formed by the adsorption of alkanethiols onto gold substrate are employed as very thin photoresists, Alkanethiolates formed by the adsorption of alkanethiols are oxidized on exposure to UV light in the presence of air to alkylsulfonates. Specifically, it is known that deep UV light of wavelength less than 200nm is necessary for oxidation to occur. In this study, ultrafast laser of wavelength 800nm and pulse width 200fs is applied for photolithography. Results show that ultrafast laser of visible range wavelength can replace deep UV laser source for photo patterning using thin organic films. Femtosecond laser coupled near-field scanning optical microscopy facilitates not only the patterning of surface chemical structure, but also the creation of three-dimensional nano-scale structures by combination with suitable etching methods.

Poly(vinyl butyral), PVB was photooxidized by UV/ozone irradiation and the effect of UV energy on the surface properties of the UV-irradiated PVB film were investigated by the measurement of reflectance, surface roughness, contact angles, elemental composition, and zeta potential. With increasing UV energy, reflectance decreased in the visible and ultraviolet regions particularly at the wavelength of 400nm. The irradiation produced nano-scale surface roughness including the maximum peak-to-valley roughness increased from 274nm for the unirradiated PVB to 370nm at the UV energy of $5.3J/cm^2$. The improved hydrophilicity was due to the higher $O_{1s}/C_{1s}$ resulting from the introduction of polar groups such as C=O bonds. The surface energy of the PVB film increased from $35.3mJ/m^2$ to $39.3mJ/m^2$ at the irradiation of $15.9J/cm^2$. While the zeta potentials decreased proportionally with increasing UV energy, the cationic dyeability of the PVB increased accordingly resulting from the improved affinity of the irradiated PVB surfaces containing the photochemically introduced anionic and dipolar dyeing sites.
