  • It has been recently reported that the SERS (Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering) effect of the silver mirror substrate made by Tollen's method is much superior to that of other substrates. In this study, the experiments for comparison of surface enhancement of silver sol and silver mirror substrates were done, where we checked the characteristics of silver mirror substrate made by Tollen's method. The surface enhancement of fluorescein was analyzed by silver sol and silver mirror substrates. We observed the SERS spectra of fluorescein. The assignments of the vibrational bands shown in SERS spectra are given based on both literature and the semi-empirical calculations at the PM3 methods. The surface enhancement properties for fluorescein showed that the silver mirror was more superior to sliver sol substrates. Spectra of fluorescein revealed that fluorescein was adsorbed on silver surfaces by a common oxygen atom. According to the 'surface selection rule', the vibrations in the band intensities reflect the adsorption orientation of the molecule on to the surface of SERS substrates. Therefore, we deduced that the adsorption orientation of fluorescein was little tilted perpendicular to the silver surfaces by using of the surface selection rules.

  • The removal efficiencies of silver-ACFs were associated with their surface properties such as surface area, porosity, and the electro-chemical reaction time for the silver treatments. X-ray diffraction patterns of fibers electrochemically treated with silver display diffraction peaks for metallic silver and kinds of silver chloride complexes on the fiber surface after electrochemical adsorption. The results of SEM and EDX indicate that surface reaction motive of silver-ACF prepared by electrochemical reaction are depend on time function for the chloride ion removal efficiency. Finally, Cl ion adsorbed by the silver-ACFs from the ICP analysis seems to show an excellent removal effect.

  • In this study, we analyzed the attachment amount and the surface properties, such as shape and attachment aspect of silver nanoparticles on the surface of salt and sucrose. In addition, we investigated the antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles by measuring total colony counts and total coliforms in sewage according to the time and the amount of silver nanoparticles. As a result, it is found that silver nanoparticles are attached on the surface of salt and sucrose from the SEM images and there is no microorganisms on the surface of salt and sucrose. Silver nanoparticles on salt were rod shape but silver nanoparticles on sucrose were round shape. Also, the content of silver was 0.735 mg/g on salt and 0.885 mg/g on sucrose. In all experiments, total colony counts and total coliforms sharply declined initially, and it decreased gradually as change the time. When injection amount of nano silver sucrose and salt increased, the width of decline was greater. The amount of total colony counts and total coliforms of nano silver salt was much lower and the disinfection efficiency was higher comparing with nano silver sucrose. That means the case of nano silver salt is much better at the antimicrobial activity.

  • In this study, the experiments for surface enhancement of silver surfaces were done, where we checked the characteristics of silver surfaces made by Tollen's method. The surface enhancement of Quinoline was analyzed by three kind of silver mirror substrates. The assignments of the vibrational bands shown in SERS spectra are given based on both literature and the semi-empirical calculations at the PM3 methods. Finally, we deduced that the adsorption orientation of quinoline was little tilted flat to the silver mirror surfaces by using of the surface selection rules.

  • Silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$) powder was mixed into a reformed pitch precursor. Then, the silver-containing pitch was melt spun to form round and "C" shape fibers. A wire mesh was inserted prior to the nozzle to improve the spinnability of the silvercontaining precursor pitch. Silver particles in the carbon fibers (CFs) were detected by XRD and TEM. These tests showed that silver particles were uniformly distributed and the total amount of silver remained constant during stabilization and carbonization. Next, the silver-containing CFs were activated by steam diluted in nitrogen gas. Silver particles accelerated the activation rate, but the specific surface areas of the silver-containing ACFs were similar to those of non-silver containing ACFs at the same burn-off levels. The specific surface area of the C-shaped activated carbon fibers was larger than that of the round activated carbon fibers. The likely reason is that the surface area of a C-shaped CF is about two times larger than that of a round CF when equivalent cross-sectional areas are compared. A small amount of silver particles in the periphery of the CFs was removed during the activation, but the remainder of silver was stayed within the ACFs.

  • The surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) of benzylcyanide in a silver sol was investigated. It was concluded that the molecule adsorbed onto the silver surface via the ${\pi}$ system of the CN group. The molecule was assumed to coordinate with either a single atom or two silver atoms. According to the SERS selection rule, the benzene ring of the adsorbed species seemed to assume a flat stance with respect to the silver surface.

  • Among the various precious metals, silver is used in various fields because of its low price than other precious metals. However, the surface of silver remains after rain in the atmosphere containing sulfur ions and chlorine ions, causing silver corrosion and discoloration. Existing documents have developed a anode to prevent corrosion but that are concentrated on secondary batteries. This study tried to prevent corrosion and discoloration of silver by using an Al sacrificial anode. Sulfuric acid decreased the potential of silver and increased the current density at active polarization and OCP. The amount of corrosion of silver with the Al sacrificial anode was reduced from 0.5 % to 6.5%. When silver is used for decoration outside, corrosion and discoloration of silver can be suppressed by installing an Al anode.

  • Vibrational spectroscopy has been applied to the benzenethiol molecule adsorbed on the silver surface. The results of infrared and Raman spectral studies have led to the conclusion that benzenethiol is chemisorbed dissociatively on the silver surface by rupture of S-H bond and the benzenethiolate formed upon adsorption is bound to silver via its sulfur atom. It seemed more likely that benzenethiol is adsorbed as being inclined to the silver surface. On contact with oxygen, the geometry of the adsorbed species appeared to bear a resemblance to that of silver benzenethiolate salt. The infrared bands of adsorbed species remained with little decrease of intensity even after the prolonged evacuation at 673 K, indicating that benzenethiol is very strongly chemisorbred to the silver surface.

  • For low-emissivity application on window glass, coalescence of thin film silver islands is crucial for high transmittance in the visible and high reflectance in the infrared. It is well known that the underlayer affects the growth mode. In this work, the effect of the underlayer on the growth of silver films deposited by filtered cathodic vacuum arc is discussed. While a nominal 0.1 nm niobium underlayer has promoted the coalescence of silver islands, a 0.2 nm layer did not show these features. From a thermodynamic approach, Nb seeding less one monolayer is considered to reduce the surface energy between the silver atoms and $Nb/TiO_2$ surface, resulting the change of its growth from 3D islands to 2D-layer modes. If the seed layer exceeds one monolayer, however, a rougher surface is formed because the surface energy of Nb itself is superior to that of $Nb-TiO_2$. The onset of silver layer on the roughened Nb surface is required more silver.
