최근 광촉매 재료로 각광받고 있는 TiO$_2$는 band gap 에너지가 3.0-3.2eV로 자외선 영역과 일부 가시광선 영역에서 활성을 갖는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 용액 중에 결정화 및 안정화 되어있는 TiO$_2$의 band gap 에너지를 낮춘다면 가시광 영역의 광반응을 얻을 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 G. Sato등이 제안한 방법으로 TiO$_2$ sol을 제조할 때 band gap 에너지를 낮추고자 천이 금속원소를 첨가하여 복합 및 담지된 TiO$_2$계 복합 sol을 합성하고자 하였다 출발원료는 TiC1$_4$를 가수분해하여 제조한 TiOCl$_2$에 천이금속원소인 V, Cr, Fe, Ni, Nb 등의 chloride 화합물을 첨가하여 중화 및 세척과정을 거친 후, 과산화수소수에 용해하여 전구체 용액인 titania peroxo용액을 제조하였다 제조된 전구체 용액은 온도와 시간을 변수로 각각 열처리하여 TiO$_2$계 복합 sol을 합성하였다. 제조된 시편은 X-선 회절 분석, 투과전자현미경, particle size analyzer, ζ-potential analyzer 및 UV-VIS Spectrometer 통을 이용하여 천이금속 첨가에 따른 TiO$_2$계 복합 sol의 형성과정과 특성변화를 관찰하였다.

저온소성 가능하며 저 융점유리인 고 투과율의 Pb-free 조성으로서 PDP(Plasma Display panel)의 투명유전체에 응용하고자 P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO 계인 인산염 유리의 열적, 광학적성질을 연구하였다. 이 삼원계인 인산염유리계를 PDP의 투명 유전체에 응용하기에는 열적특성에서 문제점이 제기되어, (30-50)P$_2$O$_{5}$ - (20-50)ZnO - (15-45) RO (mol%)계에 유리망목형성제인 A1$_2$O$_3$, SiO$_2$, B$_2$O$_3$등을 첨가하여 열적성질 및 소성후 투광성 등을 조사하였다. 열적특성은 DTA와 TGA를 이용하여 유리전이점(Tg) 및 선팽 창계수(CTE)와 연하점(Ts) 을 측정하였으며, 투광성은 500-58$0^{\circ}C$에서 1시간동안 소성하여 UV-visible spectrometer을 이용하였다 그 결과로, 380-46$0^{\circ}C$의 Tg와 8-$10^{-6}$K의 CTE 및 70-80%의 광투과율을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO계는 PDP의 투명유전체에 적용하기에는 상당히 높거나 낮은 Tg를 형성하였지만 유리형성제를 수 mol%을 첨가함으로써 적절한 Tg점과 높은 투과율을 얻을 수 있었다.수 있었다.

현재 PDP(Plasma Display Panel) 투명유전체층은 PbO 계열을 사용하고 있으나 제조공정 시 다량의 중금속 페기물이 방출됨에 따라 환경오염을 야기시킴으로 무연조성이며 저온소성이 가능한 저융점유리인 인산염계 유리에 대한 열적, 화학적, 광학적 특성에 대해 체계적인 연구가 진행되었다. 광학적 특성을 위 한 승온속도, 소성온도, 유지시간의 변화 그리고, 프릿 입도에 따른 광 투광성, 기포의 형성, 그리고 기포의 분포특성을 연구하였다. 열적특성은 DTA와 TMA를 이용하여 유리전이점(Tg) 및 선팽창계수(CTE)와 Littleton softning point (Ts)가 측정되었다. 광학적특성은 스크린프린팅법으로 후막 제조 후 소성하여 UV-visible spectrometer을 이용하여 300~800nm영역에서 투광성을 측정하였으며, FEG-SEM, AFM을 이용해 표면을 관찰하였다. 결과로써, Tg는 440-46$0^{\circ}C$ 와 CTE는 7~8.5$\times$$10^{-6}$K값을 보였고 높은 화학적 내구성과 60-80%의 광투과율을 나타내었다. 프릿의 미세화, 숭온속도의 감소는 기포의 생성을 줄이는데 효과를 보였으며, 그 결과 양호한 광투과율을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과에 따르면, P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-RO 조성은 PDP용 투명유전체 조성으로써 기존의 PbO계열을 대체할만한 새로운 조성으로 고려된다.

The ZnO thin films doped with Ga and Ge (GZO:Ge) were prepared on glass substrate using RF sputtering system. Structural, morphological and optical properties of the films deposited in different temperatures were studied. Proportion of the element of using target was 97 wt% ZnO, 2.5 wt% Ga and 0.5 wt% Ge with 99.99% highly purity. Structural properties of the samples deposited in different temperatures with 200 w RF power were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, FE-SEM images and x-ray diffraction XRD analysis. Atomic force microscopy, AFM images were able to show the grain scales and surface roughness of each film rather clearly than SEM images. it was showed that increasing temperature have better surface smoothness by FE-SEM and AFM images. Transmittance study using UV-Vis spectrometer showed that all the samples have highly transparent in visible region (300~800 nm). In addition, it can be able to calculate bandgap energy from absorbance data obtained with transmittance. The hall resistivity, mobility, and optical band gap energy are influenced by the temperature.

본 연구에서는 RF magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 실리콘 박막 태양전지용 ZnO:Al 전면전극을 제작하고 다양한 식각조건에 따른 ZnO:Al 박막의 표면형상 변화와 함께 전기적 및 광학적 특성 변화를 조사하였다. pin 구조를 갖는 실리콘 박막 태양전지의 효율 향상을 위해서는 입사광의 산란효과에 따른 광포획 증가가 필수적이며 이를 위하여 ZnO:Al 전면전극의 표면텍스처링 형성이 필요하다. 식각용액으로는 HCl과 HF 등을 사용하였으며 식각용액 농도 및 식각시간을 변화시켰다. 식각 후의 ZnO:Al 박막의 표면형상은 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope)과 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)을 이용하여 분석을 하였고, UV-visible-nIR spectrometer를 이용하여 총 투과도 및 산란 투과도를 측정하였다. 이 외에도 four-point probe 및 Hall measurement를 이용하여 전기적 특성 변화를 조사하였다. 다양한 식각조건에 따라 제조된 ZnO:Al 박막 위에 실리콘 박막 태양전지를 제작하여 전면전극의 표면형상에 따른 태양전지 성능변화를 비교 분석하였다.

ZnO (Zinc Oxide) thin film can be applied to various devices. Recently, ZnO film has been promoted in transparent TFTs (thin film transistors) because of high transparency and low temperature process. In this paper, ZnO thin films were grown on glass with the three conditions of RF sputtering power, which are 50W, 75W, 100W. Their structural, electrical and optical properties were investigated by using XRD, UV-Visible spectrometer and 4-point probes. In the ZnO film with 50W process, good crystallinity, high transmittance, and high sheet resistance were shown. In conclusion, the ZnO film with 50W can be an optimal channel layer of TFTs.

A macrocyclic ligand, N,N',N'-tribenzyl-2,11,20-triaza[3,3,3](2,6)pyridinophane (BAPP), was used to prepare an iron(II) complex as a nonheme model complex, $[(BAPP)Fe]^{+2}$ (1). X-ray crystallography of a colorless crystal of 1 revealed that BAPP acted as a pentadentate ligand due to geometrical strain for the formation of a six-coordinate iron(II) complex by BAPP. As a result, the iron center revealed a significantly distorted square pyramidal geometry similar to that found in the active site of taurine dioxygenase (tauD). In the reaction of 1 with PhIO, no intermediate was observed in the UV-visible region of spectrometer at low temperatures. Catalytic oxidations of triphenyl phosphine with PhIO at ${-40^{\circ}C}$ revealed that 1 was able to convert triphenyl phosphine to triphenyl phosphine oxide.23; SSOCHKThioanisole was also oxidized to the corresponding methylphenyl sulfoxide under the same conditions.

Nanostructuring the electrode surface is an emerging technology to improve the performance of supercapacitors since it can facilitate charge transfer, ion diffusion and electron propagation during electrochemical process. Fabrication of the electrode consisting of two or more materials together has also been focused on since it can provide synergetic effect such as broader working potential range and enhanced capacitance. In this work, we have used polyaniline (PANi) and manganese oxide (MnO2) as electrode materials. PANi is one of the promising electrode materials due to its high electrochemical activity, high doping level and stability. MnO2 is also widely studied material for supercapacitors since it is relatively cheap and environmentally friendly. Firstly, we synthesized polystyrene nanospheres on MnO2 nanoparticles. MnO2-incorporated PANi hollow nanospheres were then fabricated by polymerizing aniline monomers on these PS nanospheres and dissolving the inner PS spheres. The surface morphology, electronic absorption and electrical conductivity of the electrode were analyzed using field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), UV-visible spectrometer, and sheet resistivity meter, respectively. The electrochemical properties such as capacitance of the supercapacitors were also estimated using cyclic voltammetry.

A dye-decolorizing bacterium was isolated from a soil sample and identified as Bacillus thuringiensis using 16S rRNA sequencing. The bacterium was able to decolorize three different textile dyes, namely, Reactive blue 13, Reactive red 58, and Reactive yellow 42, and a real dyehouse effluent up to 80-95% within 6 h. Some non-textile industrially important dyes were also decolorized to different extents. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer analysis of the ethyl acetate extract of Congo red dye and its metabolites showed that the bacterium could degrade it by the asymmetric cleavage of the azo bonds to yield sodium (4-amino-3-diazenylnaphthalene-1-sulfonate) and phenylbenzene. Sodium (4-amino-3-diazenylnaphthalene-1-sulfonate) was further oxidized by the ortho-cleavage pathway to yield 2-(1-amino-2-diazenyl-2-formylvinyl) benzoic acid. There was induction of the activities of laccase and azoreductase during the decolorization of Congo red, which suggests their probable role in the biodegradation. B. thuringiensis was found to be versatile and could be used for industrial effluent biodegradation.
