Water-dispersible ZnS:Mn nanocrystals were synthesized by capping the surface of the nanocrystal with O-(2-Aminoethyl)polyethylene glycol (PEG-$NH_2$, Mw = 10,000 g/mol) and O-(2-Carboxyethyl)polyethylene glycol (PEG-COOH, Mw = 10,000 g/mol) molecules. The modified PEG capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystal powders were thoroughly characterized by XRD, HR-TEM, EDXS, ICP-AES and FT-IR spectroscopy. The optical properties were also measured by UV/Vis and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. The PL spectra showed broad emission peaks at 600 nm with similar PL efficiencies of 7.68% (ZnS:Mn-PEG-NH2) and 9.18% (ZnS:Mn-PEG-COOH) respectively. The measured average particle sizes for the modified PEG capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystals by HR-TEM images were 5.6 nm (ZnS:Mn-PEG-NH2) and 6.4 nm (ZnS:Mn-PEG-COOH), which were also supported by Debye-Scherrer calculations. In addition, biological toxicity effects of the nanocrystals over the growth of wild type E. coli were investigated. They showed no biological toxicity to E. coli until very high concentration dosage of 1 mg/mL of the both nanocrystal samples.

반응부, 이송부, 포집부로 이루어진 기상합성장치를 구축하여 Oxide TFT의 대표적인 물질인 IGZO 반도체용 타겟의 기초 소재인 산화갈륨 나노분말을 기상합성법으로 제조하였다. 반응부에서 갈륨 금속을 증발시켜 1150℃ 이상의 온도에서 산화갈륨 나노분말이 만들어지는 것을 확인하였다. 갈륨 금속은 증발 즉시 반응부에서 산화갈륨 나노분말로 합성되었으며, 반응부의 온도가 증가함에 따라 높은 결정도와 큰 입자 크기를 보였다. 또한, 합성된 산화갈륨 나노분말은 구형의 모양을 가지면서 매우 낮은 응집성을 가졌다. 기상합성법으로 얻은 산화갈륨 나노분말을 상용 산화인듐, 산화아연 분말(몰비 = 1 : 1 : 1)과 혼합하여 소결을 시행한 결과, 소결온도 1450℃에서 5.83 g/㎤의 최대밀도를 얻어 같은 조건하에서 상용 산화갈륨 분말을 이용해 만든 IGZO 소결체(5.61 g/㎤)보다 높은 밀도를 얻음을 볼 수 있었다.

Willemite powders which have been prepared by solid state reaction were easy to intermixed impurities, and particle surfaces were demaged in the progress of crushing. The above defacts were easy to accompany non-crystallization for mechanochemical effects and luminescence efficiency was deteriorated. The goal of this study improve each of defacts, and synthesize high purity and fine Mn doped willemite powders by wet and hydrothermal methods without crushing progress. It has been experimentally verified that the single phase Zn1.98Mn0.02SiO4 willemite powders which prepared by hydrothermal synthes is at 220$^{\circ}C$ for 10 hours in 2N KOH solution. The products are like needle and composition is the same with starting composition.

The influence of excess iron content (x) and reaction atmosphere on permittivity, permeability and microwave absorbing properties has been investigated in composite specimens embeded with (Ni0.4Zn0.6O)1-x(Fe2O3)1+x powders. A nitrogen atmosphere used for the reaction of the ferrite with excess iron composition (x>0) enhances spinel formation, and thereby increases both the magnetic and the dielectric loss of the ferrite composite. We also investigated the relation between the electromagnetic constants and the absorbing properites using impedance-matching solution maps for zero reflection. It is suggested that a superior microwave absorber can be fabricated through atmosphere and excess iron control during the powder process.

ZnO nanopowders were synthesized by the sol-gel method using hydrazine reduction, and their gas responses to 6 gases (200 ppm of $C_2H_5OH$, $CH_3COCH_3$, $H_2$, $C_3H_8$, 100 ppm of CO, and 5 ppm of $NO_2$) were measured at $300\;{\sim}\;400^{\circ}C$. The prepared ZnO nanopowders showed high gas responses to $C_2H_5OH$ and $CH_3COCH_3$ at $400^{\circ}C$. The sensing materials prepared at the compositions of [$ZnCl_2$]:[$N_2H_4$]:[NaOH] = 1:1:1 and 1:2:2 showed particularly high gas responses ($S\;=\;R_a/R_g,\;R_a$ : resistance in air, $R_g$ : resistance in gas) to 200 ppm of $C_2H_5OH$($S\;=\;102.8{\sim}160.7$) and 200 ppm of $CH_3COCH_3$($S\;= 72.6{\sim}166.2$), while they showed low gas responses to $H_2$, $C_3H_8$, CO, and $NO_2$. The reason for high sensitivity to these 2 gases was discussed in relation to the reaction mechanism, oxidation state, surface area, and particle morphology of the sensing materials.

The L-Valinate anion coordinating zinc complex, [$Zn(val)_2(H-2O)$], was isolated and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The crystal possess orthorhombic symmetry with a space group $P2_12_12_1$, Z = 4, and a = 7.4279(2)$\AA$, b = 9.4342(2)$\AA$, c =20.5862(7)$\AA$ respectively. The compound features a penta-coordinate zinc ion in which the two valine anion molecules are directly coordinating the central zinc metal ion via their N (amine) and O (carboxylate) atoms, and an additional coordination to zinc is made by water molecule (solvent) to form a distorted square pyramidal structure. In addition, further synthesis of the valine capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystal from the reaction of [$Zn(val)_2(H-2O)$] precursor with $Na_2S$ and 1.95 weight % of $Mn^{2+}$ dopant is described. Obtained valine capped nanocrystal was water dispersible and was optically characterized by UV-vis and solution PL spectroscopy. The solution PL spectrum for the valine capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystal showed an excitation peak at 280 nm and a very narrow emission peak at 558 nm respectively. The measured and calculated PL efficiency of the nanocrystal in water was 15.8%. The obtained powders were characterized by XRD, HR-TEM, and EDXS analyses. The particle size of the nanocrystal was also measured via a TEM image. The measured average particle size was 3.3 nm.

In order to investigate the thermoelectric properties of $Zn_{k}$ $In_2$$O_{ 3＋k}$ homologous compounds, the samples of $Zn_{k}$ /$In_2$$O_{3＋k}$ / (k = integer between 1 and 9) were prepared by calcining the mixed powders of ZnO and $In_2$$O_3$fellowed by sintering at 1823 K for 2 hours in air, and their electrical conductivities and Seebeck coefficients were measured as a function of temperature in the range of 500 K to 1150 K. X-ray diffraction analysis of the sintered samples clarified that single-phase specimens were obtained for $Zn_{k} /$In_2$$O_{3＋k}$ with k = 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9. Electrical conductivity of the $Zn_{k}$ $In_2$$O_{3＋k}$ / decreased with increasing temperature, and decreased with increasing k for k $\geq$ 3. The Seebeck coefficient was negative at all the temperatures for all compositions, confirming that $Zn_{k}$ $In_2$$O_{3＋k}$ / is an n-type semiconductor. Absolute values of the Seebeck coefficient increased linearly with increasing temperature and increased with increasing k for k $\geq$ 3. The temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient indicated that Z $n_{k}$I $n_2$ $O_{3＋k}$ could be treated as an extrinsic degenerate semiconductor. Figure-of-merits of Z $n_{k}$I $n_2$ $O_{3＋k}$ were evaluated from the measured electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient, and the reported thermal conductivity. Z $n_{7}$ I $n_2$ $O_{10}$ has the largest figure-of-merit over all the temperatures, and its highest value was $1.5{\times}$10$^{-4}$ $K^{-1}$ at 1145 K.5 K.

Metallo-organic decomposition(MOD)법으로 willemite 녹색 형광체를 합성하였고, 열처리 온도($800{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$) 및 Mn 활성제 농도($4{\sim}12 mol%$)에 따른 발광특성과 상합성에 대해 조사하였다. 254nm 여기원을 사용한 측정에서 형광체의 열처리 온도가 $800^{\circ}C$에서 $1000^{\circ}C$로 증가함에 따라 상대 발광 피크강도는 크게 증가하였고, XRD 분석 결과 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상의 열처리 온도에서 전형적인 willemite 결정 구조를 보여 주었다. $1000^{\circ}C$의 온도로 열처리한 willemite 형광체는 Mn 활성제 농도가 8mol% 일 때 최대 발광 강도를 나타내었으며 10mol% 이상에서는 발광 강도가 급격히 저하되는 농도 ??칭 현상이 관찰되었다. SEM 분석 결과 형광체 입자 형상은 구형에 가까웠으며 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 소성된 형광체 입자 크기는 약 $0.4{\sim}0.5{\mu}m$ 이었다.

ZnO and SiC powders were fabricated to make crack-free composite membranes. Parts of some membranes were re-treated with an encapsulation process. These membranes were characterized by XRD, BET, and FE-SEM analyzes. The hydrogen permeation fluxes of the encapsulated and heat-treated membranes after encapsulation were observed using Sievert's type equipment. Values were measured at 1 bar with increasing temperatures. The obtained values of encapsulated and further heat-treated membrane at 298 K were $4.20{\times}10^{-6}$ and $8.64{\times}10^{-5}mol/m^2sPa$, respectively.
