  • Transparent conductors are commonly used in photoelectric devices, where the electric energy converts to light energy or vice versa. Energy consumption devices, such as LEDs, Displays, Lighting devices use the electrical energy to generate light by carrier recombination. Meanwhile, solar cell is the only device to generate electric energy from the incident photon. Most photoelectric devices require a transparent electrode to pass the light in or out from a device. Beyond the passive role, transparent conductors can be employed to form Schottky junction or heterojunction to establish a rectifying current flow. Transparent conductor-embedded heterojunction device provides significant advantages of transparent electrode formation, no need for intentional doping process, and enhanced light-reactive surface area. Herein, we present versatile applications of transparent conductors, such as NiO, ZnO, ITO in photoelectric devices of solar cells and photodetectors for high-performing UV or IR detection. Moreover, we also introduce the growth of transparent ITO nanowires by sputtering methods for large scale application.

  • A flame detector responds either to radiant energy visible to the human eye or outside the range of human vision. Such a detector is sensitive to glowing embers, coals, or flames which radiate energy of sufficient intensity and spectral quality to actuate the alarm. An infra-red detectors can respond to the total IR component of the flame alone or in combination with flame flicker in the frequency range of 5 to 30 Hz. A major problem in the use of infrared detectors receiving total IR radiation is the possible interference of solar radiation in the infrared region. When detectors are located in places shielded from the sun, such as vaults. filtering or shielding the unit from the sun's rays is unnecessary. In this study, we proposed method for redue a false alarm with using filtering & sensor technology for distinguish of causes of raise a false alarm and pure flame.

  • Photo-crosslinkable polyimide(PI) which contains CF3 moiety was synthesized. Polarized UV light transformed ketone group of PI to hydroxyl group, which was confirmed by IR and UV-visible spectroscopy. We investigated the dichroic UV-absorption before and after photo-reaction with linearly polarized light. In particular we have attempted to clarify the relationship between the anisotropy of surface region and surface azimuthal anchoring energy and knew that the anchoring energy of photo-alignment PI is comparable with that of mechanical rubbing.

  • For the detection of the state of charge in VRFB-ESS, the analyses of UV-Visible spectrometry and the measurements of potential between the anolyte and catholyte were used in parallel. This paper includes the production of 4-valant ion from VOSO4 powder, 3- and 5-valant ions from electrochemical charge of 4-valant ion and 2-valant ion from 3-valant ion. It also includes the analyses of these valance ions and unknown electrolyte at any time using UV-Visible spectrometry. Through the analyses of the valance ions in samples, the SOCs of the samples at any charge-discharge times were verified.

  • In this work, we have prepared the nanocomposite by the reaction of mica and zinc oxide, and investigated the application of nanocomposite to UV protecting creams. Mica treated with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) reacted with 1,4-phenylenediisothiocyanate (PDC) to give -N=C=S functionalized surface, which was further reacted with zinc oxides coated with APTMS to give mica-zinc oxide nanocomposites. The composites were characterized by EA, EDS, TGA, SEM, zeta potential measurement, powder XRD, and DRS UV/Vis analyses. Finally, we measured transmittances of ultraviolet protection creams manufactured by using mica composite covered with zinc oxides in the range of 280~400 nm. The nanocomposites developed in this work might be applicable as inorganic hybrid materials for UV protecting creams.

  • Lithium-Carbon Intercalation Compounds(Li-CICs) have been synthesized from various carbon ma-terials by use of the modified stainless steel two-bulbs methods. These compounds had various colours by structural character of starting materials. The synthesized Li-CICs were identified to stage formation process by X-ray diffraction data. At these results, well-oriented natural graphite and graphite fiber are formed lower stages(Stage 1, Stage 2), but poor-oriented carbon fiber and petroleum cokes are also formed higher stages(Stage 3, Stage 4, Stage 5). And when we compared with measured d value and calculated d value, these values agreed with each other. But poor-oriented carbon materials are some difference from them. The stage stability and energy stage of Li-CICs were obtained by UV/VIS Spectrophotometric data. X-ray diffraction and UV/VIS Spectrophotometric data suggested that well-oriented carbon materials has distingushible curve between energy and reflectance. In these results, we know that many charge carriers between carbon layers are related to concentration of intercalants. And then, this paper also provides information on high efficiency energy storing materials at intercalation process of Li-CICs.

  • Uranium dioxide was dissolved with nitric acid and a trace amount of HF. The analytical conditions of a spectrophotometer were investigated to determine a trace amount of silicon in the uranium matrices without a separation process. The effects of a trace amount of HF on the determination of silicon were examined. Boric acid was used to eliminate HF the interference in the colorimetric process. The recovery of silicon in the presence of a trace amount of HF in uranium solutions with or without saturated boric acid was $103.3{\pm}0.8$ and $76.6{\pm}6.8%$, respectively. The amount of saturated boric acid did not affect the recovery of the silicon. Therefore it was possible for this procedure to measure a trace amount of silicon in a uranium matrix without a separation by a UV-VIS spectrophotometry.
