ZnO 박막은 II-VI족 화합물 반도체로서 상온에서 3.37eV의 넓은 밴드갭을 가지고 있을 뿐만 아니라 GaN(28meV) 보다 상온에서 큰 엑시톤 결합 에너지(60meV)와 열 안정성을 가지고 있다. 특히 ZnO를 base로 한 2차원의 화합물 (MgZnO, CdZnO 그리고 MgO) 반도체 물질은 UV LED, 생 화학 센서와 투명전극 등으로 응용이 가능하다. ZnO/MgZnO 양자우물 구조의 양자제한 효과로 인한 엑시톤 결합에너지와 전기적 광학적 특성 향상으로 광전자 소 자 제작이 가능하다. 그렇지만, Zn-Mg 상평형도에서 ZnO 내에 Mg 고용도가 상온에서 열역학적으로 4at% 이하 이고, 또한 ZnO와 MgO는 각각 우르짜이트 구조와 면심입방 구조를 가지기 때문에 Mg 함량을 높이는데 어려움이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 열처리를 함으로써 MgZnO 박막 내에 Mg 함량의 증가와 결정성 향상으로 고품질의 광전자 소자 제작을 가능하게 했다. 본 실험에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 장비로 MgZnO 박막 성장 후 Si 기판위에 성장된 박막의 결정성 향상과 MgZnO 내의 Mg 함량 변화를 관찰하기 위해 성장된 박막에 대한 열처리 효과를 연구 하였다.

A series of reactions between an amino alcoholic ligand, cis-2-((2-((2-hydroxyethyl)amino)ethyl)amino)cyclohexan-1-ol (HEAC), with the mixtures of group 12 metals including, $HgCl_2/CdCl_2$, $HgCl_2/CdI_2$, $ZnCl_2/CdCl_2$ and $ZnCl_2/CdCl_2/HgCl_2$ was experimentally and theoretically studied to determine the most stable product of these reactions. Furthermore, the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) studies were done to evaluate the theoretical results. The products were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Based on these investigations a binuclear structure of cadmium, [$Cd_2(HEAC)_2({\mu}-Cl)_2Cl_2$] (1), is the most stable product that was formed in all studied reactions between HEAC and metals mixtures. In this structure, the cadmium atom has a $CdN_2O({\mu}-Cl)_2Cl$ environment and distorted octahedral geometry.

This study carried out to investigate the removal capacity of heavy metals such as Cu (II), Zn (II) and Cd (II) dissolved in aqueous solution in the soils collected from Hyeon-Dong (HD), San-seong (SS), Keum-chon (KC) and Keum-Hac (KH) located in the upper Banbyun stream. The pH of all the soils was weak alkali such as 8.8 9.2. According to the analysis of chemical composition of the soils, the amount of $SiO_2$, $AlO_2$ and CaO were similar in all tested soils. However, the amount of $K_2O$, $FeO_3$ and MgO were different from each soil. The XRD measurement with these soils showed that quartz and feldspar were presented in all tested soils, and the distribution of kaoline, illite, montmorillonite, vermiculite and calcite were different from each soil. The results of the removal capacity of heavy metals indicated that all the soils had more than 98% of the removal efficiency of Cu (II), Zn (II) and Cd (II), and among the heavy metals, Cu (II) was removed the most effectively. These results suggested that the soils collected from the upper Banbyun stream have the high removal capacity of heavy metals, and these soils could be used for the banking a river around the abandoned mine area, containing the higher concentrations of heavy metals than the usual stream.

The stability constants$(K_f)$ of the complexes of some transition and post-transition metal ions (Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), Cd(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ), Hg(Ⅱ)) with $N_2O_3$-donor macrocyclic ligand, 1,15-diaza-3,4 : 12,13-dibenzo-5,8,11-trioxacyclooctadecane ($NtnOdienH_4$), have been determined by potentiometry in aqueous solution at $25^{\circ}C$. Log $K_f$ values of the complexes were : Co(Ⅱ): 3.83, Ni(Ⅱ) : 4.56, Cu(Ⅱ) : 7.74, Zn(Ⅱ) : 4.98, Cd(Ⅱ) : 3.91, Pb(Ⅱ) : 6.65, and Hg(Ⅱ) : 14.87. The order of stabilities of transition metal complexes was the same as the natural order of stability proposed by Williams-Irving. In post-transition metal complexes, the order of stabilities was Cd(Ⅱ) < Pb(Ⅱ) < Hg(Ⅱ), and the covalent character in metal ion-donor atoms bonds appeared a dominant factor in the stability. In methanol solution, each metal ion forms 1 : 1 complex, while Ni(Ⅱ) ion forms both 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 complexes. It was confirmed by $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-$NMR spectral study that the nitrogen atoms in the ligand were major contributors for the complexation of post-transition metal ions with the ligand. It was shown, by elementry analysis, electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and spectral analysis, that solid Cu(Ⅱ)-and Zn(Ⅱ)-complexes have a distorted octahedral and a tetrahedral structure, respectively.

II-VI의 넓은 밴드갭 (3.37 eV)을 가지는 ZnO는 solar cells, transparent conductive electrodes, ultraviolet light emitters, and chemical sensors 등에 응용되고 있다. 특히 고효율 ZnO계 발광 소자 구현을 위하여 MgO (7.7eV), CdO (2.0eV) 등의 고용을 통한 밴드갭을 엔지니어링 하며, 단파장 영역의 광원을 확보하기 위하여 MgO 첨가를 통한 밴드갭 에너지를 증가시키는 방향으로의 연구가 활발하다. 그러나 ZnO의 wurtzite 구조와 MgO의 rocksalt 구조의 상이한 결정구조로 인하여 Mg의 고용한계는 4 at. %, 4.1 eV 알려져 있다. 본 실험에서는 p-type Si (100), c-sapphire (0002)과 GaN 기판 위에 MgO (99.999 %)와 ZnO (99.999 %) 두가지 타겟을 사용하여 RF co-스퍼터링법으로 ZnMgO 박막을 증착 하였다. 이때 ZnO 타겟의 power 밀도는 고정 시키고 MgO 타겟의 power 밀도를 변화 시키며 Mg의 함량을 조절하여 그에 따른 광학적 구조적 특성의 변화를 연구 하였다. 성장된 ZnMgO 박막은 MgO 타겟의 power 밀도가 증가할 때 Mg의 함량이 10 at. %까지 증가 하며, 그에 따른 표면의 거칠기 및 입계 크기가 감소하며, 박막의 성장속도 또한 감소함을 SEM과 AFM을 통하여 알 수 있었다. XRD를 동하여 ZnMgO 박막의 (0002) peak의 위치는 $34.50^{\circ}{\sim}34.7^{\circ}$로 오른쪽으로 이동하며, c-축으로 성장하였음을 알 수 있다. PL과 UV룰 동하여, Mg의 함량이 증가 할수록 박막의 밴드갭 에너지는 3.2 eV에서 4.1 eV 로 증가하였다.

To examine the possibility of biomonitoring of heavy metal removal ability and soil, a study was performed to investigate the heavy metal removal ability and metal-binding protein (MBP) as detoxification process using Oenanthe stolonifera. After O. stolonifera was exposed to individuals (cadmium, zinc) and mixture (cadmium+zinc)for 4 days, removal rate of heavy metal and pH in the treatment medium was measured. MBP was assayed by means of ion exchange column chromatography. The exposure to mixture (Cd:76.8%, Zn:75%) rather than individuals (Cd:82.9%, Zn:90.4%) showed a synergism raising the toxic effect. Initial removal rate was different for each heavy metal : in case of exposure to cadmium it was over 60% on day 1, while for zinc it was 75~90% on day 4. Throughout the experimental period, pH value of treatment medium continuously decreased, since cortex in the roots may secret organic acid to adjust and prevent toxicity of metals. The existence or MBP in the 70~80 fraction and the presence of Zn-enzyme pool was ascertained with the column chromatography. This study demonstrated a possibility that heavy utilized as a biomarker of heavy metal pollution.

In thick film resistors, the characteristics of the frit and the reaction between glass frit and conductor material play an important role for their electrical properties. In this study, various glass frits in the system of $60RO{\cdot}20SiO_2$ $15B_2O_3{\cdot}5Al_2O_3$(RO=PbO, ZnO, CdO; mole%) were mixed with $RuO_2$ and coated on 96% alumina substrate. Only the glass frit containing PbO was reacted with $RuO_2$in$RuO_{2+}$-thick film resistor and produced the new crystalline phase of $Pb_2Ru_2O_{65}$. Their electrical resistivities strongly depend on the amount of $Pb_2Ru_2O_{65}$ crystalline phase obtained, which varied with firing temperature. The sheet resistivities of these resistors were varied from $10^3\; to\; 10^6\;{\Omega}/{\Box}$ depending on heat treatment, and the absolute value of TCR was decreased as the heat treatment temperature increaed. However, $RuO_2$ did not reacted with the glass frits containing ZnO nor CdO, and the resulting showed very high sheet resistivities.

Parylene coating was adopted on CdZnTe (CZT) detector as a mechanical protection layer after wet passivation with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and ammonium fluoride (NH₄F). Wet chemical passivant lose their effectiveness when exposed to the ambient conditions for a long time. Parylene coating could protect the effectiveness of passivation, by mechanically blocking the exposure to the ambient conditions. Stability of CZT detector was tested with the measurement of leakage current density and response to radio-isotopes. When the enough thickness of parylene (>100 ㎛) is adopted, parylene is a promising protection layer thereby ensuring the performance and long-term stability of CZT detectors.

본 논문에서는 Indium tin oxide (ITO) 투명전극의 성장온도($T_G$)가 Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ (CIGS) 박막태양전지에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. ITO 박막은 radio-frequency magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 상온에서 $350^{\circ}C$까지의 다양한 $T_G$ 조건에서 i-ZnO/ glass와 i-ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/glass 기판에 증착되었다. ITO의 비저항과 CdS/CIGS 계면 특성은 $T_G$에 크게 영향을 받았다. $T_G{\leq}200^{\circ}C$에서는 $T_G$가 증가할수록 ITO 저항이 감소하였고 이에 따른 series 저항 감소가 태양전지 성능 향상에 기여하였다. 하지만 $T_G$ > $200^{\circ}C$에서는 CdS 버퍼층의 Cd이 CIGS 층으로 확산되어 소자의 p-n 계면이 파괴되는 것을 발견하였다. $T_G=200^{\circ}C$에서 ITO를 증착한 CIGS 태양전지의 경우 가장 높은 광전변환효율을 보였다.
