In this study, the degradation of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene) was tested in both (Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$system [Fe(III) 1 mM, oxalate 6 mM, H$_2$O$_2$ 3%, and pH 6] and UV/(Fe3++ chelating agent)lHzOz system [UV dose 17.4 kWhlL, Fe(III) 1mM, oxalate 6 mM,H$_2$O$_2$ 1%, and pH 6]. The types of chelating agents used in experiments were catechol, NTA, gallic, acetyl acetone, succinic, acetate, EDTA, citrate, malonate, and oxalate and the optimum chelating agent for BTEX degradation was determined. The results showed that acetate was the optimum chelating agent for BTEX degradation in both (Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ and UV/(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ system, and UV radiation enhanced the degradation of BTEX with any types of chelating agents. Moreover, UV/(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ system, which chelating agent was acetate, removed effectively mixtures of BTEX and MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether) when the concentration of both BTEX and MTBE was 200 mg/L, respectively. In this system, BTEX was degraded completely and 85% of MTBE was degraded at the reaction time of 180 min. Therefore, UV/((Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ system with acetate as a chelating agent removed not only BTEX but also BTEX and MTBE, effectively.

ZnO 나노 구조는 화학적으로 안정하고 큰 엑시톤 에너지를 가지는 성질 때문에 청색 영역에서 작동하는 광전소자의 제작에 대단히 유용하다. ZnO 나노 구조중에서 ZnO 나노 입자는 UV 광탐지기 소자가 작동하는 영역에서 광반응이 매우 민감하여 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다[1]. 그래핀은 높은 전도도, 투명도 및 화학적, 열적 안정성이 뛰어난 독특한 물리적 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 차세대 전자소자와 광전소자의 우수한 소재로 각광 받고 있다[2,3]. 본 연구에서는 UV 광탐지기에서 뛰어난 특성을 보이는 ZnO 양자점을 포함된 poly-N-vinylcarbazole (PVK) 층에 전기적 특성이 뛰어난 그래핀 층을 삽입하여 UV 광탐지기의 광전류를 향상 시키는 연구를 하였다. PVK 표면에 ZnO 양자점이 붙어서 형성되어 있는 모습과 그래핀 층에 PVK와 ZnO QD가 붙어있는 것을 투사 전자 현미경을 통하여 관찰 하였다. 전류-접압 측정을 하여 암전류와 광전류의 차이가 많이 나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그래핀 층을 삽입한 광탐지기 소자에서 광전류가 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Inactivation by UV-C irradiation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes inoculated onto washed carrots was examined. Carrot samples were inoculated with 6-7 log CFU/mL of E. coli O157:H7 or L. monocytogenes, treated with doses of 0, 1, 3, 5, or $10\;kJ/m^2$ UV-C, and stored at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 8 d. The populations of E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes significantly decreased with increasing irradiation dose (p<0.05). In particular, E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes populations fell significantly by 2.35 and 2.38 log CFU/g at $10\;kJ/m^2$, respectively, compared to control values. UV-C irradiation inhibited color changes and decreased the whiteness index in carrot during storage, compared to controls. Sensory evaluation results showed that UV-C-treated carrots had better sensory characteristics than did the control. Therefore, the results suggest that UV-C irradiation could be useful to improve the microbial safety and sensory qualities of fresh-cut carrots during storage.

수용성 안료인 RhB를 대상으로 광-펜톤 공정의 최전 운전조건을 구하고, 광-펜톤 공정을 구성하는 개별 공정을 비교한 결과 다음의 결론을 얻었다. 광-펜톤 공정의 최적 $Fe^{2+}$와 $H_2O_2$ 투입량은 각각 0.0031 mmol과 0.625 mmol이었으며, 최적 pH는 3으로 나타났으나, 7이하의 pH 범위에서는 RhB 색 감소에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 초기 반응 속도에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 인자는 UV 광 전력 > $H_2O_2$> 철염의 순으로 나타났다. 80분간의 반응시간 경과 후 최종 RhB 농도를 고찰한 결과 UV 광 전력이 낮을 경우 색도가 다 제거되지 않기 때문에 광-펜톤 공정에서 UV 광 전력이 색 제거에 대한 가장 큰 인자라고 사료되었다. 광-펜톤 공정의 개별 공정인 UV, $H_2O_2$, 펜톤을 이용하여 RhB의 농도감소를 고찰한 결과 초기 반응속도상수는 펜톤 공정의 빠른 초기 반응로 인해 펜톤 > UV >$H_2O_2$로 나타났으나, 최종 RhB 농도를 고려할 경우 UV> 펜톤 > $H_2O_2$로 나타났다.

The synthesized phosphor showed a broad emission band at 658nm wavelength. Red light-emitting diodes(LEDs) were fabricated through the integration of on InGaN UV bare chip and a 1:3 ratio of $CaAl_{12}O_{19}:Mn^{4+}$ and epoxy resin in a single package. This coated LED can be applicable to make White LEDs under excitation energy of UV LED.

In order to photocatalytically treat organic matter (COD_Cr) and chromaticity effectively, chemical coagulation and sedimentation processes were employed as a pretreatment of the leachate produced from landfill in Jeju Island. This was performed using FeCl₃·6H₂O as a coagulant. For the treated leachate, UV/TiO₂ and UV/TiO₂/H₂O₂ systems were investigated, using 4 types of UV lamps, including an ozone lamp (24 W), TiO₂ as a photocatalyst, and/or H₂O₂ as an initiator or inhibitor for photocatalytic degradation. In the chemical coagulation and sedimentation process using FeCl₃·6H₂O, optimum removal was achieved with an initial pH of 6, and a coagulant dosage of 2.0 g/L, culminating in the removal of 40% COD_Cr and 81% chromaticity. For the UV/TiO₂ system utilizing an ozone lamp and 3 g/L of TiO₂, the optimum condition was obtained at pH 5. However, the treated COD_Cr and chromaticity did not meet the emission standards (COD_Cr: 400 mg/L, chromaticity: 200 degrees) in a clean area. However, for a UV/TiO₂/H₂O₂ system using 1.54 g/L of H₂O₂ in addition to the above optimum UV/TiO₂ system, the results were 395 mg/L and 160 degrees, respectively, which were within the emission standard limits. The effect of the UV lamp on the removal of COD_Cr, and chromaticity of the leachate decreased in the order of ozone (24 W) lamp > 254 nm (24 W) lamp > ozone (14 W) lamp > 254 nm (14 W) lamp. Only COD_Cr and chromaticity treated with the ozone (24 W) lamp met the emission standards.

Poly(phenylene sulfide)(PPS) films were photooxidized under UV/ozone irradiation. The effect of UV energy on the surface properties of the UV-irradiation PPS films were investigated by the measurement of reflectance, surface roughness, and contact angle. Reflectance decreased at the wavelength of 400nm and the surface roughness increased with increased UV energy. The improvement in hydrophilicity with increased $O_{1s}/C_{1s}$ was caused by the introduction of hydrophilic $SO_2$ bond. Surface energy increased from 46.6 to $78.3mJ/m^2$ with increased UV energy up to $21.2J/cm^2$. Also zeta potential decreased with increased UV energy. The increased dyeability to cationic dyes may be due to the photochemically introduced anionic and dipolar dyeing sites on the PPS films surfaces.he photochemically introduced anionic and dipolar dyeing sites on the PPS films surfaces.

This study was carried out comparing with ozone oxidation and photocatalytic degradation for removal of geosmin. In the change of pH, Ozonation, UV-Germicidal lamp and Halogen lamp irradiation and Halogen $lamp/TiO_2$ Powder was very slowly changing, but UV-Germicidal $lamp/TiO_2$ Powder was rapidly changed from 7.0 to 7.7 until 300min of irradiation time, and varied a little after. Geosmin degradation ratio was as following, UV-Germicidal $lamp/TiO_2$ $Powder(200mg/L){\geq}O_3$ > UV-Germicidal $lamp/TiO_2$ $Pw(100mg/L)$ > UV-Germicidal lamp > Halogen lamp. The result of investigation of generated by-products were 3-Heptanone, two sort of aldehydes and three sort of alcohols by ozonation. But It was not generated by photocatalytic degradation.

In this study, we report an improved efficiency of Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs), using $UV/O_3$ treated anode and different cathode. We investigated the efficiency of OLEDs by $UV/O_3$ treatment of ITO surface. We Performed $UV/O_3$ treatment and found that $UV/O_3$ treatment enhanced the performance of OLEDs. The fundamental structure of the OLEDs was ITO $anode/{\alpha}-NPD/Alq_3/Al$ or Li:Al cathode. The Li:Al can improve the OLEDs efficiency dramatically in cathode because it has lower work function than Al. Current-voltage, Luminance-voltage characteristics and luminance efficiency were measured at room temperature.

The decomposition of gaseous $CH_3CHO$ was investigated by metal loaded $TiO_2$ (pure $TiO_2,\;Pt/TiO_2,\;Pd/TiO_2,\;Mn/TiO_2\;and\;Ag/TiO_2$) with $UV/TiO_2$ process and $UV/TiO_2/O_3$ process at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Metal loaded $TiO_2$ was prepared by photodeposition. Decomposition of $CH_3CHO$ was carried out in a flow-type photochemical reaction system using three 10W black light lamps ($300{\sim}400nm$) as a light source. The experimental results showed that the degradation rate of $CH_3CHO$ was increased with Pt and Ag on $TiO_2$ compared to pure $TiO_2$, but decreased with depositing Pd and Mn on pure $TiO_2$. The considerable increase in the degradation efficiency of the $CH_3CHO$ was found by a combination of photocatalysis and ozonation as compared to only by ozonation or photocatalysis. Loading of Pt on $TiO_2$ promoted conversion of gaseous ozone. The degradation rate of gaseous $CH_3CHO$ decreased with an increase of water vapor in the feed stream for the both $UV/TiO_2\;and\;UV/TiO_2/O_3$ processes. The pure $TiO_2$ was more affected by the water vapor than Pt loaded $TiO_2$.
