지속시간과 생기빈도에 따른 홍수량 산정은 여러 수문분야 적용에 있어 매우 유용하며 홍수관련 설계인자를 첨두홍수량 중심에서 지속시간에 대응하는 홍수량으로 확장할 필요가 있다고 하겠다. 본 연구에서는 한강유역 관측 홍수량의 홍수량-지속기간-빈도 분석을 위하여 샘플지역인 한강대교와 여주 지점의 수위자료와 수위-유량 관계식을 사용한 유출량 자료를 활용하여 경험적 QdF곡선과 이론적 QdF모형을 제시하였다. 지속시간에 따른 분석을 위하여 이동평균자료를 사용하여 획득된 지속기간별 연 최대홍수량 자료를 추출하였다. 한강대교 QdF 곡선의 변동특성은 지속기간과 재현기간이 증가함에 따른 최대홍수량 변화폭이 크게 증가하지 않음을 나타내고 이는 한강대교 지점의 유량이 대표하는 유역이 매우 크며 상류의 댐에 의한 홍수통제 등 인위적 영향에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 유역 환경변화로 인한 자료 특성변화에 대한 영향 분석을 위하여 댐건설 전후를 분리한 자료를 이용한 QdF 곡선을 작성, 분석하였다. 댐 건설 전후 강수 자료 자체의 특성 변화와 댐 건설 후 자료기간의 한계를 가짐에도 불구하고 분석결과 댐건설 전후 자료에 대한 QdF 곡선은 댐건설로 인한 유출량 영향 파악을 가능케 하였다. 여주 지점의 QdF 곡선은 지속기간과 빈도변화에 따른 변화양상이 대상 지역 계획홍수량을 넘어서는 자료가 많음을 보였다. 이는 유출량 산정을 위해서 제시된 수위-유량 관계식의 적용범위를 넘어서는 값의 발생으로 인한 인위적인 조정에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 그러므로 지점별로 분석자료의 타당성 및 정상성을 점검하고 자료에 타당한 개선된 QC과정이 필요함을 알 수 있다. 충주댐 건설전후의 여주 지점 QdF 분석 결과는 특히 댐 건설 후 QdF 곡선의 변화 양상은 댐 건설 후 자료에 대한 새로운 형태의 이론적 QdF모형 제시가 필요함을 보여주었다.

$F{\ddot{o}}rster$ resonance energy transfer (FRET) is extremely sensitive to the separation distance between the donor and the acceptor which is ideal for probing such biological phenomena. Also, FRET-based probes have been developing for detecting an unamplified, low-abundance of target DNA. Here we describe the development of FRET based DNA sensor based on an accumulated QD system for detecting KRAS G12D mutation which is the most common mutation in cancer. The accumulated QD system consists of the polystyrene beads which surface is modified with carboxyl modified QDs. The QDs are sandwich-hybridized with DNA of a capture probe, a reporter probe with Texas-red, and a target DNA by EDC-NHS coupling. Because the carboxyl modified QDs are located closely to each other in the accumulated QDs, these neighboring QDs are enough to transfer the energy to the acceptor dyes. Therefore the FRET factor in the bead system is enhancing by the additional increase of 29.2% as compared to that in a single QD system. These results suggest that the accumulated nanobead probe with conjugated QDs can be used as ultrasensitive DNA nanosensors detecting the mutation in the various cancers.

InP quantum dot (QD)-organosilicon nanocomposites were synthesized and their photoluminescence quenching was mainly investigated because of their applicability to white LEDs (light emitting diodes). The as-synthesized InP QDs are capped with myristic acid (MA), which are incompatible with typical silicone encapsulants. We have introduced a new ligand, 3-aminopropyldimethylsilane (APDMS), which enables embedding the QDs into vinyl-functionalized silicones through direct chemical bonding. The exchange of ligand from MA to APDMS does not significantly affect the UV absorbance of the InP QDs, but quenches the PL to about 10% of its original value with the relative increase in surface related emission intensities, which is explained by stronger coordination of the APDMS ligands to the surface indium atoms. InP QD-organosilicon nanocomposites were synthesized by connecting the QDs using a short cross-linker such as 1,4-divinyltetramethylsilylethane (DVMSE) by the hydrosilylation reaction. The formation and changes in the optical properties of the InP QD-organosilicon nanocomposite were monitored by ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) absorbance and steady state photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. As the hydrosilylation reaction proceeds, the QD-organosilicon nanocomposite is formed and grows in size, causing an increase in the UV-vis absorbance due to the scattering effect. At the same time, the PL spectrum is red-shifted and, very interestingly, the PL is quenched gradually. Three PL quenching mechanisms are regarded as strong candidates for the PL quenching of the QD nanocomposites, namely the scattering effect, F$\ddot{o}$rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and cross-linker tension preventing the QD's surface relaxation.

Let {Rn($\chi$)}{{{{ { } atop {n=0} }}}} be a discrete Sobolev orthogonal polynomials (DSOPS) relative to a symmetric bilinear form (p,q)={{{{ INT _{ } }}}} pqd$\mu$0 +{{{{ INT _{ } }}}} p qd$\mu$1, where d$\mu$0 and d$\mu$1 are signed Borel measures on .

In this paper, the expressions of meromorphic solutions of the following nonlinear complex differential equation of the form $$f^n+Qd(z,f)=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{3}pi(z)e^{{\alpha}_i(z)}$$ are studied by using Nevanlinna theory, where n ≥ 5 is an integer, Q_d(z, f) is a differential polynomial in f of degree d ≤ n - 4 with rational functions as its coefficients, p₁(z), p₂(z), p₃(z) are non-vanishing rational functions, and α₁(z), α₂(z), α₃(z) are nonconstant polynomials such that α'₁(z), α'₂(z), α'₃(z) are distinct each other. Moreover, examples are given to illustrate the accuracy of the condition.

To improve the color gamut of a liquid-crystal display (LCD), we propose a bandpass filter that is added to the backlight unit to optimize the backlight spectrum. The bandpass filter can only transmit red, green and blue light in the visible range, while reflecting the unwanted light. We study the optical properties of the bandpass filter using the transfer-matrix method, and the effect of the bandpass filter on the color gamuts of LCDs is also investigated. When a bandpass filter based on a 5-layer configuration comprising low and high refractive indices ((HL)²H) is used in phosphor-converted white-light-emitting diode (pc-WLED), K₂SiF₆:Mn⁴⁺ (KSF-LED), and quantum-dot (QD) backlights, the color gamuts of the LCDs improve from 72% to 95.3% of NTSC, from 92% to 106.7% of NTSC, and from 104.3% to 112.2% of NTSC respectively. When the incident angle of light increases to 30°, the color gamuts of LCDs with pc-WLED and KSF-LED backlights decrease by 2.9% and 1% respectively. For the QD backlight, the color gamut almost does not change. When the (HL)²H structure is coated on the diffusion film, the color gamut can be improved to 92.6% of NTSC (pc-WLED), 105.6% of NTSC (KSF-LED), and 111.9% of NTSC (QD). The diffusion film has no obvious effect on the color gamut. The results have an important potential application in wide-color-gamut LCDs.

Recently, colloidal core/shell type quantum dots lighting-emitting diodes (QDLEDs) have been extensively studied and developed for the future of optoelectronic applications. In the work, we fabricate an inverted CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based light-emitting diodes (QDLED)[1]. In order to reduce work function of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode for inverted structure, a very thin (<10 nm) polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) is used as surface modifier[2] instead of conventional metal oxide electron injection layer. The PEIE layer substantially reduces the work function of ITO electrodes which is estimated to be 3.08 eV by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). From transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study, CdSe/ZnS QDs are uniformly distributed and formed by a monolayer on PEIE layer. In this inverted QD LED, two kinds of hybrid organic materials, [poly (9,9-di-n-octyl-fluorene-alt-benzothiadiazolo)(F8BT) + poly(N,N'-bis (4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD)] and [4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) + poly-TPD], were adopted as hole transport layer having high highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level for improving hole transport ability. At a low-operating voltage of 8 V, the device emits orange and red spectral radiation with high brightness up to 2450 and 1420 cd/m2, and luminance efficacy of 1.4 cd/A and 0.89 cd/A, respectively, at 7 V applied bias. Also, the carrier transport mechanisms for the QD LEDs are described by using several models to fit the experimental I-V data.

A lateral flow immunoassay platform utilizing antibody functionalized water soluble CdSe/ZnS semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) was developed for the analysis of human serum amyloid A-1 (hSAA1) in a buffer solution. hSAA1 was chosen as a target protein because it is regarded as a potential biomarker associated with early diagnosis and prognosis in patients of lung cancer. The immunoassay strip on a nitrocellulose membrane was fabricated by spraying two lines composed of a test line with a monoclonal antibody against hSAA1 (10G1) (anti hSAA1) and a control line of anti-chicken IgY. While the CdSe/ZnS QDs synthesized in an organic phase were transferred to a water phase by ligand exchange using carboxylic acid modified alkane thiol. The QDs was then conjugated to monoclonal antibody against hSAA1 (14F8) [anti hSAA1 (14F8)] and used as a fluorescent detection probe. The sequential lateral flow of hSAA1 in different concentration and QDs-anti hSAA1 (14F8) complex allowed to form the surface sandwich complex of anti hSAA1 (10G1)/hSAA1/QD-anti hSAA1 (14F8), which was then analyzed using fluorescence microscope. A 100 nM concentration of hSAA1 protein can be detected by naked eyes under an optimized lateral flow buffer condition with a sensing time of 5 mins.
