ACF and ZnO modified $TiO_2$ composite materials (ZnO-ACF/$TiO_2$) were prepared by a sol-gel method. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis. A methyl orange (MO) solution under visible light irradiation was used to determine the photocatalytic activity. The degradation of the MO was determined using UV spectrophotometers. An increase in the photocatalytic activity was observed and attributed to an increase of the photo-absorption effect by the ZnO and the cooperative effect of the ACF.

ZnO and A1$_2$O$_3$ powders were mixed in 1 : 1 mole ratio and ball-milled with ethanol for 3 h. After the pressing process, the mixtures were sintered at $700^{\circ}C$~130$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 h in air to form ZnA1$_2$O$_4$. Structural properties were analyzed by X-ray diffraction patterns ; optical properties by absorption spectra with UV-VIS-H[R Spectrophotometer ; microstructural properties by SEM ; photoluminescent properties by using PL Measuring System. In result, ZnAl$_2$O$_4$ phosphor is crystallized at 110$0^{\circ}C$ and optical bandgap is calculated at 4.65 eV. PL spectrums were shifted to longer wavelengths with increasing temperature and was appeared around 780nm at 130$0^{\circ}C$ . Additionally, the peak intensity was veil strong at 80$0^{\circ}C$ and was declined with increasing temperature.

To take an information of substitutent effect and thermodynamic of association at thiacarbocyanines, association constant $K_{D}$, free energy of association $\Delta$ $G_{D}$, enthalpies of association $\Delta$ $H_{D}$ were measured by spectrophotometer according to dependence on concentration of dyes and temperature of aqueous MeOH system. With increase of concentration dyes or decrease of temperature of aqueous MeOH system, absorption spectra of dyes exhibited equlilibria shift toward the dimer. Phenyl meso substituted thiacarbicyanine, DyeIII, resulted in higher $K_{D}$ and $\Delta$ $G_{D}$ values than DyeI and DyeII. To easily make an association of thacarbicyanine, meso substutituent group need to be a flat structure, which will make a park as well as lain tiles.tiles.ructure, which will make a park as well as lain tiles.les.

This study is that of providing a fairly practical practival guide to the use of natural pigment in food industry. A strain isolated from marine resources was carried out the production of red pigment. The pigment showed UV absorption maxima at 520 and 550 nm. The color intensity in aqueous solution was fairly stable in the ranges of pH 5~8. The strain KS-97 produced a maximum yield of red pigment at$ 25^{\circ}C$ for 72 hrs with pH 7.0. The strain KS-97 was iden-tified a Bacillus sp. based on morphological and biochemical characterization such as a rod from, motility, spore for-mation, Gram positive and catalase production. The production of red pigment indicated that the strain Ks-97 utilized at thigh concentration of colloidal chitin as carbon sources obtained maximum yield of red pigment at $25^{\circ}C$ for 72 hrs. The highest production of red pigment was observed with cultivation in medium containing 20% colloi-dal chitin, 2.5g polypeptone, 2.5g yeast extract, 1.0g $KH_2$$PO_4$, 0.01g $MgSO_4$.$6H_2$O, 0.01g $ZnSO_4$, 0.01 g $MnSO_4$(per 1).

Anthocyanins in Korean pigmented rice(Oryza sativa var. Suwon 415) were analyzed to develop value-added natural pigment from rice. The pigment extracted with 1% HCl in methanol was determined as anthocyanins by characteristic absorption spectra in UV-visible ranges showing maximum absorbance at 280 nm and 530 nm. Two aglycones from acid-hydrolyzed anthocyanins were identified as cyanidin and malvidin by their $R_f$ values in several developing solvents, spectral properties, and $^1H-NMR$ analysis. Sugar moiety was determined as monoglucose by paper chromatography. The main anthocyanins in Korean pigmented rice were tentatively identified as cyanidin-3-glucoside and malvidin-3-glucoside.

Oil-soluble poly(p-phenylene(1-methoxyethylene)), as a precursor of poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV), was synthesized add identified with NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The PPV films were prepared by PPV precursor films with a thermal treatment at $250^{\circ}C$ under vacuum, where the PPV precursor films wets formed on various substrates by using Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method. The characterization of these films was carried out by FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-VIS absorption spectroscopym, and photoluminescence (PL). Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has been used to investigate He surface morphology of PPV films.

The structural, optical, and electrical properties of ZnO thin films grown on glass by radio-frequency (rf) magnetron sputtering were investigated. The mixture flow ratio of $O_2$ to Ar, which was operated with sputtering gas, was chosen as a parameter for growing high-qualify ZnO thin films. The structural properties and surface morphologies of the thin films were characterized by the X-ray diffraction and the atomic force microscope, respectively. As for the optical properties of the films, the optical absorbance was measured in the wavelength range of 300-1100 nm by using UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The optical transmittance, absorption coefficient, and optical bandgap energy of ZnO thin films were calculated from the measured data. The crystallinity of the films was improved and the bandgap energy was increased from 3.08 eV to 3.23 eV as the oxygen flow ratio was increased from 0 % to 50 %. Furthermore, The ultraviolet and violet luminescences were observed by using photoluminescence spectroscopy. The hall mobility was decreased with the increase of oxygen flow ratio.

$TiO_2$ nano-particle paste was prepared by ethyl cellulose, $\alpha$-terpineol and bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (dioxcyl phthalate) for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Dispersion and absorbance of $TiO_2$ photoanode films was controlled by adding different amount of ethyl cellulose and $\alpha$-terpineol. The morphology of prepared $TiO_2$ films was studied by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and the optical properties of $TiO_2$ films were measured by UV/vis spectra. Photovoltaic-current density was observed to determine the electrochemical response of DSSCs. Energy conversion efficiency was obtained about 7.1% at ethyl cellulose and $\alpha$-terpineol at optimal mixed ratio (as ethyl cellulose: 0.1 g; $\alpha$-terpineol: 1.5 ml) under illumination with AM 1.5($100\;Wcm^{-2}$) simulated sunlight.

It is well known that the metallo-phthalocyanine(MPcs) are sensitive to toxic gaseous molecules such as $NO_2$ and also chemically and thermally stable. Therefore, lots of MPcs have been studied for the potential chemical sensor for $NO_2$ gas using quartz crystal microbalance or electrical conductivity. In this study, 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-[octa-(dodecyloxy)] copper phthalocyanine and 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-[octa-(octyloxy)] copper phthalocyanine were synthesized and their possibility of LB film preparation were tested. It was confirmed by using FT-IR, DSC, NMR, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy and Elemental Analysis that CuPc derivatives were successfully synthesized. From the ${\pi}$-A characteristics and limiting areas of two CuPc derivatives it was found that the preparation of LB films with these CuPc derivatives is possible.

Anthocyanin pigments of purple sweet potato roots (Ipomoea batatas L.) were extracted with 0.5% TFA (Trifluoroacetic acid) in 95% EtOh, and further isolated an purified by Amberlite XAD-7 and ODS column chromatography, and final preparative HPLC. Among nine anthocyanins isolated, the structure of three major anthocyanins were identified as 3-O-(6-O-trans-caffeyl)-2-O-(6-O-trans-caffeylglucopyranosyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-5-O-($\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl)-peonidin, 3-O-(6-O-trans-caffeyl)-2-O-(6-O-trans-feruloyl-glucopyranosyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-5-O-($\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl)-peonidin, and 3-O-(6-O-trans-caffeyl)-2-O-(6-O-p-hydroxylbenzoylglucopyranosyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl)-peonidin, by using UV-visible absorption spectra, $^1$H-NMR and FAB-MS analysis.
