A two-photon induced photoreduction process suggests a possibility for fabricating complicated metallic microstructures which can be applied to 3-D micro-circuits and optical devices, etc. The process employs the photoreduction of silver ions in a metallic solution which is composed of metallic salt ($AgNO_3$) and watersoluble polymer ((poly(4-styrenesulfonique acid) 18wt. % in $H_2O$, $(C_8H_8O_3S)_n$)). In this process, the improvement of the resolution and the uniformity of fabricated metallic structures are important issues. To address these problems, continuous forming window (CFW) is obtained from a parametric study on the conditions of laser power and scanning velocity and the direct seed generation (DSG) method is proposed. Silver nano particles are uniformly generated in a metallic solution through the DSG method, which enables the decrease of a laser power to trigger the photoreduction of silver ions as well as the increase of metal contents in a metallic solution. So the two-photon induced photoreduction property of a metallic solution is improved. Through this work, precise silver patterns are fabricated with a minimum line width of 400 nm.

In this study, we synthesized a combination of graphene oxide (GO) and titanium dioxide (TiO₂) and confirm that GO can be used for CO₂ photoreduction. TiO₂ exhibited highly efficient combination with other conventional electric charges generated by these paration phenomenon for suppression of hole-electron recombination. This improved the efficiency of CO₂ photoreduction. The synthetic form of GO-TiO₂ used in this study was agraphene sheet surrounded by TiO₂ powder. Efficiency and stability were enhanced by combination of GO and TiO₂. In a CO₂ photoreduction experiment, the highest CO conversion rate was 0.652 μmol/g·h in GO10-TiO₂ (2.3-fold that of pure TiO₂) and the highest CH₄ production rate was 0.037 μmol/g·h in GO0.1-TiO₂ (2.4-fold that of pure TiO₂). GO enhances photocatalytic efficiency by functioning as a support and absorbent, and enabling charge separation. With increasing GO concentration, the CH₄ level decreases to~45% due to decreased transfer of electrons. In this study, TiO₂ together with GO yielded a different result than the normal doping effect and selective CO₂ photoreduction.

The photochemical behavior of haloarene tethered to alkyl by an amide bone(1,2) was studied. The photoreaction of N-(2-bromophenyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide (1b) in basic medium afforded intramolecular substitute product, 2-cyclohexylbenzoxazole (4) and reduced product, N-phenylcyclohexanecarboxamide (5)in 33 and 26% yield, respectively. The chloro analogue(1a) produced photo-Fries type and photosubstituted products(6,4), whereas the iodo analogue produced extensively photoreduced product 5. N-(2-bromophenyl)-N-methylcyclohexanecarboxamide (2), which can not exist as imidol form, produced a photocyclized product, supporting as imidol form is involved in the intramolecular photosubstitution. since the photoreduction but the photosubstitution reaction is retarded by the presence of oxygen, a trilpet state for the photoreduction and a singlet state for the photosubstitution are involved.

Photoreactions of N-(2,4-dibromonaphthyl)arenecarboxamides in basic medium result in the intramolecular substituted products, 2-aryl-8-bromonaphthoxazoles in moderate yields and further photoreactions of the products afford the reduced products, 2-arylnaphthoxazoles. These reactions are straightforward for syntheses of naphthoxazole derivatives. Since the intramolecular photosubstitution of the bromoarenecarboxamide by the oxygen of its amide group is more effective than the photoreduction of the substituted product, 2-aryl-8- bromonaphthoxazole in basic medium, the intramolecular substituted product, 2-aryl-8-bromonaphthoxazole can be isolated. A charge-transfered excited singlet state of an imidol form of the 2-bromoarenecarboxamide is involved in the photosubstitution, whereas an excited triplet state of the 2-aryl-8-bromonaphthoxzole is closely involved in the photoreduction.

The photoreactivity of twelve anthraquinone derivatives was examined to evaluate its usefulness as a photo-reagent for the analysis of ginsenosides using photoreduction fluorescence (PRF) detection method. Among the tested compounds, 2-tert-butylandthraquinone (TBAQ), 2-chloroanthraquinone (CAQ) and anthraquinone (AQ) showed good characteristics as photoreagents. The detection limits of ginsenoside $Rg_{1}$PRF-HPLC method using TBAQ, CAQ or AQ as a photo-reagent were found to be ca. 35 ng, 50 ng and 50 ng, respectively.

Au fine particles dispersed $TiO_{2}$ film was prepared on silica glass substrate by sol-gel dipping and firing process. The $TiO_{2}$ films were fabricated from the system of titanium tetraisopropoxide-EtOH-HCl-$H_{2}O$-hydrogen tetrachloroaurat (III) tetrahydrate. The conditions for the formation of clear solution and dissolving high concentration of Au compound were examined. Photoreduction process was adopted to control the size of gold metal particles. Phase evolution of matrix $TiO_{2}$ and variation of Au particle with UV irradiation were investigated by XRD, SEM, TEM and UV-visible spectrophotometer. The effect of CPCl (Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate) as a dispersion agent was evaluated.

Photoreduction of Methyl Orange Catalyzed by Nile Red-Adsorbed TiO$_2$/Y zeolites. Nile Red was successfully adsorbed on TiO$_2$/Y zeolites and the absorption profile is very broad with maxima, ca. 630 nm. The peak is largely red-shifted compared to that observed in hydrocarbon solvents. Furthermore, a broad and largely Stokes shifted emission band as observed around 660 nm. The largely Stokes shifted emission band should be originated from the excited state structural changes. In order to understand the photocatalytic activities of Nile Red-adsorbed TiO$_2$/Y zeolite, the photoreduction of Methyl Orange(5.0$\times$10$^{-5}$ M) was studied using visible light beyond 320 nm. Methyl Orange was effectively reduced by Nile Red-adsorbed TiO$_2$/Y zeolite, indicating the photocatalytic activity of Nile Red-adsorbed TiO$_2$ zeolites was enhanced by about eight times higher than that of TiO$_2$/Y zeolite.

A high performance liquid chromatography using photoreduction fluorescence detection was described for the analysis of saikosaponins. Saikosaponins were separated on an $NH_2$ column using acetonitrile and aqueous 2-tert-butylanthraquinone(t-BAQ) as mobile phase. Column effluent was passed through a 40cm PTFE capillary tube coiled around a 10W UV lamp to reduce t-BAQ to a highly fluorescent dihydroxyanthracene derivative which was detected by a fluorescence detector. The optimal concentration of t-BAQ was found to be $6{\times}10^{-5}M$ and the optimal reaction time to be 2 seconds. The detection limit for saikosaponin a and d by this method was found to be about 280ng and 80ng. The dynamic linear range was over two orders and the correlation coefficient of the calibration curve of them was 0.998.
