Fourier Transform UV/VIS spectrometer has been modified for emission spectroscopy with the technique of supersonic expansion, in which the unstable molecular radical $CH_3S$ has been generated in a jet by a high voltage DC discharge. The fluorescence spectra of the supersonically cooled radical have been recorded on a Fourier Transform UV/VIS spectrometer. The ratio of signal to noise of the spectra has been improved substantially. Also the rotational structure has been clearly resolved for $CH_3S$ molecular radical.

Sunscreen is divided into the organic agent of UV absorption and inorganic agent of reflection. These are evaluated by sun protection factor (SPF) in-vivo test requiring high cost and time, while in-vitro tests are adopted commonly because of short test time, easy result collection. Generally, test method of SPF use SPF 290a by UV-vis spectrometer. The evaluate by SPF 290 has low reproducibility. Although analysis using UV-vis spectrometer has high reproducibility, it is hard to separated results of transmission, adsorption, and reflection. In this study, suggested method of elipsometer has some merit such as high reproducibility, easy separation of transmission/adsorption/re- flection, analysis using various incident angle. We tested the validity of elipsometer for SPF measurement, using commercially available sun-block (SPF 50).

Since heavy metal pollution is a significant global environmental problem and very dangerous to human health, the improved methods for detecting heavy metals are required recently. Colorimetric chemosensors are now considered as one of the most effective analytical method used in the environment monitoring. New direct dyes having the function of colorimetric chemosensors were synthesized. When metal ions such as $Al^{3+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cd^{2+}$, $Cr^{3+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}$, $Fe^{3+}$, $Hg^{2+}$, $Li^+$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Na^+$, $Ni^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ were added each solution of new direct dyes, the color of solution was changed and can be easily detected with naked eyes without expensive experimental equipment such as atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS) or inductively coupled plasma?mass spectrometer (ICP-MS). The new benzidine analogues were diazotized and reacted with couplers such as H-acid, J-acid, Chromotropic acid, Nevill-winther acid and gamma acid to synthesize new direct dyes. The structures of the new direct dyes were confirmed by high resolution mass spectrometer (FAB ionization) and evaluated with UV-Vis spectroscopy. The UV-VIS spectroscopy was measured for the dye solutions by adding various concentrations of metal ions. It was observed that the absorbance in UV-Vis spectra was changed as the heavy metal ions were added.

대기환경에 대한 오존의 영향이 증대되면서 오존에 대한 관심이 증대되었다. 이에 따라 대기중 오존 농도를 정확히 측정할 수 있는 오존 측정기에 대한 관심도 고조되고 있는 실정이다. 오존을 측정하기 위한 방법은 분석하는 방법에 따라 Ion Chromatography, UV/Vis Spectrometer, Spectrofluorimeter, Spectrometer(reflection)방법 등을 들 수 있으며(Zhou and Smith, 1997, Geyh etal. 1997), 이들 중 Spectrometer(reflection)를 이용하는 방법이 비교적 간단하다. 이 방법은 대기 중 오존과 반응하여 색도가 변화하는 착색제를 사용하여 색도 변화를 관측하여 오존 농도를 평가하는 방법이다.

대기 환경에 있어서 인간에 위해한 기준 가스들을 측정하는 방법은 여러 가지가 있다. 근래에 이르러 이들을 측정 관리하기 위하여 분광학적인 방법을 이용하는 시도가 늘어나고 있다. 유럽에서 널리 이용중인 차등 흡수 분광기(Differential Optical Absorption Spectrometer)는 현재는 위성에 응용되어 운용되고 있으며 가스의 전자 떨림이나 회전에 의한 에너지 흡수선을 이용하여 해당가스를 검출해내는 기술을 그 원리로 하고 있다. (중략)

This study was performed to find the problems according to interference factors (organic matter, pH, Cr, Mn, Fe, clay, and etc.) when we analyzed the hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] in soils using UV/VIS spectrometer (US EPA 7196A), attempted to evaluate the domestic applicability of analytical method (US EPA 7199) using IC-UV/VIS spectrometer as alternative method. The recovery rate of certified reference materials was 75.0% (US EPA 7196A) and 101.4% (US EPA 7199) by the analytical methods. As the results of performing QA/QC about US EPA 7199, method detection limit (MDL) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.062 mg/kg, 0.196 mg/kg, respectively. The LOQ of US EPA 7199 was lower than that of the current soil official testing method in Korea (0.5 mg/kg). Cr(VI) contents in 23 soil samples were compared by the analytical methods of EPA 7196A and 7199. Cr(VI) was detected in 13 of 23 soil samples by EPA 7196A, while EPA 7199 was not detected in any soil samples. The Cr(VI) content in 23 soil samples by EPA 7196A was not clearly correlated with Cr, Fe, Mn and clay content in the soil samples. However, the contents of Cr(VI) and organic matter of the soil samples had the highest coefficient of determination ($R^2$) of 0.80. In order to evaluate the correlation between the recovery rates of Cr(VI) and organic matter contents in the soil samples, the recovery rates of 5 soil samples added Cr(VI) standard solution were analyzed by the analytical methods. According to the results, the higher the organic matter contents in soil samples, the lower the recovery rates of Cr(VI) by US EPA 7196, while in case of US EPA 7199, the recovery rates were stable regardless of the organic matter contents.

Walnut hull is a by-product from the Walnut tree, used as natural dyestuff from ancient times. This study was done to examine the effects of extractive conditions on the properties of walnut hull extracts for making efficient use of the walnut hull as a natural colorant. Aqueous extracts of walnut hull were prepared at various extractive concentration, temperature and time. Then they were characterized using UV-Vis. Spectrophotometer, FT-IR Spectrometer, Prep Liquid Chromatography, and Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. The aqueous extracts have two absorbency peaks of UV-Vis. Spectrum, shoulder type peak in the range of 270-280 nm and broad type band around 420 nm. Intensity of absorbency is increased with increase of extraction concentration and time. However, Boiling temperature extraction method showed the most efficiency of all. Intensity of absorbency is also affected by extraction pH. The Prep LC examined two kinds of isolated colorant with different molecular weight. FT-IR spectra of hull extracts showed an absorption band around $3400cm^{-1}$, the peaks at $1700-1600cm^{-1}$, which are characteristic of aromatic compounds with unsaturated ketone and benzene ring. It showed that the extraction contained some mineral ions, such as K, Ca, Si, Mg.

Due to their periodic helical structure, cholesteric liquid crystals (CLC) have a unique ability to selectively reflect visible light. CLC films reflecting a broad wavelength band were prepared by inducing a pitch gradient in CLC layers through a diffusion of small molecules and through a thermal mixing of cyclic siloxane CLC molecules with different pitch lengths. Various pitch gradients in the CLC cell were observed using UV/Vis spectrometer and SEM technique.

Titania sols or powders were are very promising materials for environment as photocatalyst. The band gap energy of $TiO_2$ has been known to be 2.8 to 3.2 eV. But the measuring system of its band gap is usually depend on absorption properties. Thus, in this study, absorption properties of $TiO_2$ sols prepared by hydrothermal process were researched with the effect of various particle sizes and concentrations. The mean particle size in $TiO_2$ sols increased as 15 nm to 60 nm, absorption graph measured by UV-Vis spectrometer shows to move red-shift. When dilute solution added with $2^n$ in $TiO_2$, the band gap energy increases as linear function.
