CdTe 및 Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ 박막 태양전지의 창층으로 널리 이용되는 CdS에서 Cd의 일부를 Zn으로 치환하면 두 물질 사이의 전자 친화력의 정합이 향상되고 에너지 밴드 갭이 증가하여 개방전압 및 광전류를 증가시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 태양전지와 같은 광전소자에 적용되는 CdZnS와 CdTe로 구성되는 이종접합 소자를 제작하고 접합에서의 전류 전도기구를 조사하기 위해 온도에 따른 전류-전압 특성을 분석하였다. CdS/CdTe 접합의 전류 흐름은 계면 재결합과 터널링의 조합에 의해 조절되지만 CdZnS/CdTe 접합의 경우 상온 이상의 온도에서는 공핍층에서의 생성/재결합, 상온 이하의 온도에서는 누설 전류나 터널링에 의해 전류 흐름이 제한됨을 알 수 있었다.

The Yeonhwa Lead and Zinc Mine is located in northern part of Kyeongsang-Buk-Do, Korea, and is economically most important mine because it produces most part of the output of lead and zinc minerals in the country. Ore deposits of the mine are localized in the Pungchon Formation and several limestone seams of upper Myobong Formation in Cambrian Age. Ore solution ascended along the fractures of N-S, NE-SW or NW-SE trends and along slate and limestone boundary, and then replaced selectively limestone to make ore bodies. Skarn minerals are consisted of hedenbergite, diopside, and main sulfide mineral orebodies are composed of galena, zincblende, pyrrhotite, pyrite and a minor amounts of arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite. Metal ratio, ${\rho}_{Pb}={\frac{Pb(%)}{Pb(%)+Zn(%)}}{\times}100$, illustrates the zona I arrangements of some ore bodies. It will be inferred the flow trending of ore solution and the process reaction with adjacent country rocks. The sub-divided formations of the Pungchon limestone and Myobong slate are very useful as a criteria for detecting probable ore location. Rhodochrosite veins are good evidence for searching of ore location, especially on Pb-rich ore bodies.

CIGS 박막 태양전지에서 완충층으로 사용되는 ZnS는 단파장 영역에서 높은 투과도와 CIGS 계면과의 좋은 접착을 가지고 친환경적이며 3.74eV의 에너지 밴드갭을 가지고 있기 때문에 CdS를 사용했을 때 보다 더 넓은 에너지 영역의 광자를 p-n 접합 경계 영역으로 통과 시킬 수 있고 Cd-free 물질이라는 점에서 기존의 CdS 완충층의 대체 물질로 각광 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CIGS 박막에 화학습식공정 방법을 이용하여 최적화된 ZnS 박막의 증착 조건을 찾기 위해 실험 변수인 시약의 농도, 실험온도, 열처리 조건 등의 다양한 변화를 통해 실험을 진행하였고, 박막의 갈라짐과 pin-hole 현상을 개선하고 균일한 막을 제조하기 위해 구연산 나트륨 농도에 따른 ZnS 박막의 특성을 연구하였다. 본 실험 결과로서 실험변수인 황산아연의 농도 0.15M, 암모니아는 0.3M, 티오요소 1M, 공정 온도 $80^{\circ}C$의 최적화 된 조건에서 가장 좋은 품질의 ZnS 박막을 제조하였지만, ZnS 박막의 열처리 후 산소의 양이 줄어감에 따라 박막의 표면이 갈라지고 pin-hole 현상이 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 박막의 품질을 개선하기 위해 구연산 나트륨을 첨가하여 실험한 결과 구연산 나트륨의 0.05M의 농도에서는 박막 표면에 90nm의 갈라짐의 크기와 pin-hole 현상이 남아있는 것을 확인하였고, 농도가 높아질수록 점차 크기가 줄어들면서 0.4M에서는 갈라짐이 거의 없는 표면과 pin-hole 현상도 없어지는 것을 확인하였고, 약 144nm의 박막 두께와 3.8eV의 에너지 밴드갭을 가지고, 약 81%의 높은 광투과율을 갖는 고품질의 ZnS 박막을 제작할 수 있었다.

Various types of optical materials and devices used in special environments must satisfy durability and optical properties. In order to improve the durability of zinc sulfide multispectral (MS ZnS) substrates with transmission wavelengths from visible to infrared, Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass was used as a sealing material to bond the MS ZnS substrates. Wetting tests of the Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass were conducted to analyze flowability as a function of temperature, by considering the glass transition temperature (T_g) and softening temperature (T_s). In the wetting test, the viscous flow of the chalcogenide glass sample was analyzed according to the temperature. After placing the chalcogenide glass disk between MS ZnS substrates (20 × 30 mm), the sealing test was performed at a temperature of 485 ℃ for 60 min. Notably, it was found that the Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass sealed the MS ZnS substrates well. After the MS ZnS substrates were sealed with chalcogenide glass, they showed a transmission of 55 % over 3~12 ㎛. The tensile strength of the sealed MS ZnS substrates with Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass was analyzed by applying a maximum load of about 240 N, confirming its suitability as a sealing material in the far infrared range.

Recently, in order to improve the performance of the colloidal quantum dot solar cells (CQDSCs), various efforts such as the modification of the cell architecture and surface treatment for quantum dot (QD) passivation have been made. Especially, the incorporation of halides into the QD matrix was reported to improve the performances significantly via passivating QD trap states that lower the life-time of the minority-carrier. In this work, we fabricated a lead sulfide (PbS) QD bilayer treated with different ligands and utilized it as a photoactive layer of the CQDSCs. The bottom and top PbS layer was treated using metal iodide ($MI_x$ and butanedithiol (BuDT), respectively. All the depositions and ligand treatments were carried out in air using layer-by-layer spin-coating process. The fabrication of the active layers as well as the n-type zinc oxide (ZnO) layer was successfully carried out on the bendable indium-tin-oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, which implies that this technique can be applied to the fabrication of flexible and/or wearable solar cells. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the CQDSCs with the architecture of $PET/ITO/ZnO/PbS-MI_x/PbS-BuDT/MoO_x/Ag$ reached 4.2 %, which is significantly larger than that of the cells with single QD (PbS-BuDT) layer.

Background: Enteric methane ($CH_4$) accounts for about 70% of total $CH_4$ emissions from the ruminant animals. Researchers are exploring ways to mitigate enteric $CH_4$ emissions from ruminants. Recently, nano zinc oxide (nZnO) has shown potential in reducing $CH_4$ and hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) production from the liquid manure under anaerobic storage conditions. Four different levels of nZnO and two types of feed were mixed with rumen fluid to investigate the efficacy of nZnO in mitigating gaseous production. Methods: All experiments with four replicates were conducted in batches in 250 mL glass bottles paired with the ANKOM$^{RF}$ wireless gas production monitoring system. Gas production was monitored continuously for 72 h at a constant temperature of $39{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ in a water bath. Headspace gas samples were collected using gas-tight syringes from the Tedlar bags connected to the glass bottles and analyzed for greenhouse gases ($CH_4$ and carbon dioxide-$CO_2$) and $H_2S$ concentrations. $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ gas concentrations were analyzed using an SRI-8610 Gas Chromatograph and $H_2S$ concentrations were measured using a Jerome 631X meter. At the same time, substrate (i.e. mixed rumen fluid+ NP treatment+ feed composite) samples were collected from the glass bottles at the beginning and at the end of an experiment for bacterial counts, and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) analysis. Results: Compared to the control treatment the $H_2S$ and GHGs concentration reduction after 72 h of the tested nZnO levels varied between 4.89 to 53.65%. Additionally, 0.47 to 22.21% microbial population reduction was observed from the applied nZnO treatments. Application of nZnO at a rate of $1000{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ have exhibited the highest amount of concentration reductions for all three gases and microbial population. Conclusion: Results suggest that both 500 and $1000{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ nZnO application levels have the potential to reduce GHG and $H_2S$ concentrations.

유기성폐슬러지를 염화아연과 황화칼륨으로 약품활성화하여 제조한 활성탄의 세공발달과 흡착특성을 연구하였다. 유기성폐슬러지로 제조한 탄소의 세공발달은 77K에서 질소흡착법을 이용하여 특성화하였다. 염화아연으로 약품활성화하여 제조한 $ZnCl_2$-활성탄은 활성화공정에 의해 미세공이 형성되었음을 지적해주는 BDDT 분류의 type I의 흡착특성을 보여주었다. 상용 분말활성탄과 $K_2S$-활성탄은 BDDT 분류의 type IV와 유사한 이력현상을 나타냈는데, 이것은 이들 활성탄에 중세공이 형성되었음을 말해준다. 이것은 $K_2S$-활성탄은 주로 중세공과 미세공으로 이루어졌으며, 거대세공의 발달은 미비하다는 것을 의미한다. 유기성폐슬러지로 제조한 $K_2S$-활성탄의 중금속 흡착능은 상용입상활성탄보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. $K_2S$-활성탄에 대한 중금속의 흡착은 단분자층 흡착을 나타내는 Langmuir와 Freundlich 등온식에 잘 부합되었다. $PO_4$-P에 대한 흡착능은 $K_2S$-활성탄이 $ZnCl_2$-활성탄보다 우수한 것으로 나타난 반면, $NO_3$-N의 흡착은 $ZnCl_2$-활성탄이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과, 활성화제로 염화아연과 황화칼륨을 사용하여 유기성폐슬러지를 약품처리할 경우, 탄화와 활성화공정을 거치는 2단계 공정을 통하여 상용입상활성탄보다 흡착능이 뛰어난 활성탄을 제조할 수 있었다.

A new method for the preparation of copper activated zinc sulfide phosphors by combustion method has been proposed. Copper nitrate was decomposed with an organic fuel to give fine sized particles in presence of alkali metal halides at low temperature than the conventional synthesis. Organic compound also acted as fuel at 500 $^{\circ}C$ with rapid heating. The phosphors thus obtained were then heated at 900 $^{\circ}C$ in an inert atmosphere for 2-5 hrs to get better luminescent properties.

This study investigated the effectiveness of calcium polysulfide (CPS; CaS_x) injection for the in-situ immobilization of cadmium and zinc-contaminated groundwater. The research focused on the impact of CPS injection on groundwater quality parameters, such as dissolved oxygen (DO), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and pH, as well as heavy metal precipitate formation and aquifer's microbial community dynamics on a field scale. The results demonstrated that the injected CPS formed a reactive zone, effectively reducing cadmium and zinc concentrations for a limited period. However, contaminant rebound occurred over time, necessitating repeated CPS injections. A single injection of CPS achieved a removal efficiency of 70~99%, lasting approximately 20 days. In contrast, repeated injections sustained the removal effects up to 37 days. Chemical analyses confirmed the precipitation of cadmium and zinc sulfide (CdS and ZnS), which remained stable in the aquifer even 86 days post-injection. Elemental sulfur (S) was detected in a significant quantity, contributing to the observed low DO levels. Microbial community exhibited a shift from an initial prevalence of sulfur-oxidizing and iron-oxidizing bacteria to a later dominance of sulfate-reducing bacteria following the cessation of high DO recycled water inflow, potentially enhancing the formation of CdS and ZnS.
