Thin-film transistors (TFTs) based on oxide semiconductors have been regarded as promising alternatives for conventional amorphous and polycrystalline silicon TFTs. Oxide TFTs have several advantages, such as low temperature processing, transparency and high field-effect mobility. Lots of oxide semiconductors for example ZnO, SnO2, In2O3, InZnO, ZnSnO, and InGaZnO etc. have been researched. Particularly, zinc-tin oxide (ZTO) is suitable for channel layer of oxide TFTs having a high mobility that Sn in ZTO can improve the carrier transport by overlapping orbital. However, some issues related to the ZTO TFT electrical performance still remain to be resolved, such as obtaining good electrical contact between source/drain (S/D) electrodes and active channel layer. In this study, the bottom-gate type ZTO TFTs with staggered structure were prepared. Thin films of ZTO (40 nm thick) were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering and performed at room temperature in an Ar atmosphere with an oxygen partial pressure of 10%. After annealing the thin films of ZTO at $400^{\circ}C$ or an hour, Cu, Mo, ITO and Ti electrodes were used for the S/D electrodes. Cu, Mo, ITO and Ti (200 nm thick) were also deposited by DC magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The channel layer and S/D electrodes were defined using a lift-off process which resulted in a fixed width W of 100 ${\mu}m$ and channel length L varied from 10 to 50 ${\mu}m$. The TFT source/drain series resistance, the intrinsic mobility (${\mu}i$), and intrinsic threshold voltage (Vi) were extracted by transmission line method (TLM) using a series of TFTs with different channel lengths. And the performances of ZTO TFTs were measured by using HP 4145B semiconductor analyzer. The results showed that the Cu S/D electrodes had a high intrinsic field effect mobility and a low effective contact resistance compared to other electrodes such as Mo, ITO and Ti.

An investigation is reported on the coating of ZnS:Cu,Cl phosphors by $HfO_2$ using atomic layer deposition method. Hafnium oxide films were prepared at the chamber temperature of $280^{\circ}C$ using $Hf[N(CH_3)_2]_4\;and\;O_2$ as precursors and reactant gas, respectively. XPS and ICP-MS analysis showed the surface composition of coated phosphor powder was hafnium oxide. In FE-SEM analysis, the surface morphology of uncoated phosphors became smoother and clearer as the number of ALD cycle increased from 900 to 1800. The photoluminescence intensity for coated phosphors showed $7.3{\sim}13.4%$ higher than that of uncoated. The effect means that the reactive surface is uniformly coated with stable hafnium oxide to reduce the dead surface layer without change of bulk properties and also its absorptance is almost negligible due to ultrathin(nano-scaled) films. The growth rate is about $1.1{\AA}/cycle$.

The study was carried out to examine in more detail metallurgical and mechanical properties of brazed joints of diamond cutting wheel. In this work, shank(mild steel) and sintered bronze-base tips were brazed with three different filler materials(W-40, BAgl and BAg3S). The machine used in this work was a high frequency induction brazing equipment. The joint thickness, porosities and microstructure of brazed joints with brazing variables(brazing temperature, holding time) were evaluated with OLM, SEM, EDS and XRD. Bending(torque) test was also performed to evaluate strength of brazed joints. Further wetting test was performed in a vacuum furnace in order to evaluate the wettability of filler metals on base metals9shank and tips). The brazing temperature had a strong influence on the joint strength and the optimum brazing temperature range was about $700~850^{\circ}C$ for the bronze/steel combinations. The strength of the brazed joint was found to be influenced by the three factors : degree of reaction region, porosity content, joint thickness. The reaction region was formed in the bronze-base tip adjacent to the joint. The reaction region resulted in a bad influence on the strength due to the formation of Cu5.6Sn, CuZn4, $\beta(CuZn)$ and CdAg, etc. Porosities increased as brazing variables(brazing temperature, holding time) increased, and the brazed joints with porosities of less than about 3-5% had an optimum strength for the bronze-base tip.

Various forest humic substances were collected at different climate regions with different forest types, and adsorption of heavy metals such as Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Cr(III) were characteristically conducted to obtain optimal adsorption conditions and to evaluate the removal efficiency of heavy metals by each forest humic substance. The adsorption isotherms for Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Cr(III) conformed to Langmuir's equation. In the stirred reactor, the removal efficiencies of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) by forest humic substances were more than 90% but that of Cr(III) was less than 60%. The adsorption capacities of heavy metals in the stirred reactor were considerably varied depending on the type of forest humic substances. Among humic substances, the one from deciduous forest at subtropical region showed the highest removal efficiency for Cu(II). There was no significant difference in removal efficiency by each heavy metal depending on reaction temperature ranged from 20 to 50oC except for Cr(III), and the adsorptions of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) were occurred rapidly in the incipient stage within 10 min, while Cr(III) needed more reaction time to be adsorbed. The stirred and packed bed column reactors showed similar adsorption characteristics of heavy metals by humic substances, but the removal efficiency was considerably higher in the packed bed column reactor than in the stirred reactor. Therefore, in actual operation process, a continuous packed bed column reactor was more economical.

We analyzed the interface characteristics of Zn-based thin-film buffer layers formed by a sulfur thermal cracker on a $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ (CIGS) light-absorber layer. The analyzed Zn-based thin-film buffer layers are processed by a proposed method comprising two processes - Zn-sputtering and cracker-sulfurization. The processed buffer layers are then suitable to be used in the fabrication of highly efficient CIGS solar cells. Among the various Zn-based film thicknesses, an 8 nm-thick Zn-based film shows the highest power conversion efficiency for a solar cell. The band alignment of the buffer/CIGS was investigated by measuring the band-gap energies and valence band levels across the depth direction. The conduction band difference between the near surface and interface in the buffer layer enables an efficient electron transport across the junction. We found the origin of the energy band structure by observing the chemical states. The fabricated buffer/CIGS layers have a structurally and chemically distinct interface with little elemental inter-diffusion.

There are various types of materials used in electronic industry, such as electrode material, conductor, insulator, anode, cathode and semiconductor. Electrode material type is Cu, Ti, ZnO and so on. Especially if we use mixed ZnO in soil cement or silica gel, we can have advantages in ice road to prevent freezing. We have great impact if we use supported in inorganic substances like silica gel. In this paper we have studied that ZnO supported silica gel and its properties. Zinc acetate dissolved in distilled water were loaded on the silica gel by the reaction with ammonia at $80^{\circ}C$. And we investigated particle structures of ZnO by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).

본 연구에서는 과불화합물(PFOA, PFOS)과 수계에 보편적으로 존재하는 중금속(Cu, Zn, Cr, Cd, Pb, Hg)의 복합독성을 Vibrio fischeri를 이용하여 평가하였다. PFOA와 PFOS의 경우, 30 min-$EC_{50}$값이 각각 134.21 (119.54-150.68)와 235.97 (180.96-307.70) mg/L로 PFOS 보다는 PFOA의 독성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 한편 중금속류의 독성은 $Hg^{2+}$의 독성이 가장 높았으며, 이어서 $Pb^{2+}$, $Cr^{6+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Cd^{2+}$ 순으로 높은 독성민감도를 나타냈다. 과불화합물류와 중금속류의 복합독성의 경우, PFOA와 PFOS 모두 $Cr^{6+}$과 공존할 시 상승효과가 나타났으며, PFOA + $Zn^{2+}$, PFOS + $Zn^2$, PFOA + $Cd^{2+}$, PFOS + $Cd^{2+}$의 조합은 상가 효과를 나타냈다. 이외의 복합물질은 모두 길항작용을 하는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 과불화합물인 PFOA, PFOS와 중금속 복합물질들의 조합에 따른 상호작용이 상이함을 확인하였고 이 결과로부터 과불화합물과 중금속 공존할 때 수환경에 야기할 수 있는 잠재적 위해성을 예측할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 2007년도 봄철 대전 지역에서 발생한 황사(황사 기간) 및 대기부유물(비황사 기간)의 미량원소의 지구화학적 특성과 정량적 오염정도를 평가하였다. 황사 내 미량원소의 함량은 황사발원지 토양의 평균 함량에 비하여 수십에서 수백 배 높은 함량을 보여주고 있으며, 비황사 시기의 대기부유물에서도 유사한 특성을 보이고 있어, 황사 시기뿐만 아니라 비황사 시기에도 중국으로부터 이동되는 오염물질의 영향을 받고 있음을 지시하고 있다. 입도별 미량원소의 함량은 $PM_{2.5}$에서 Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, V, S, As, Cd, Co, Ni, Mo, Sb, Cs, Rb, Th, Sc, Y 등이, 그리고 TSP에서는 Zr, Sr, Ba, Li, Th, U 등의 함량이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 황사의 S, Cd, Mo, Zn, Pb, Sb, Cu 및 Zr 함량은대기부유물과 큰 차이를 보이지 않으나, 대기오염으로 부화가 발생하지 않는 Li, Cs, Co, U, Cr, Ni, Rb, V, Th, Y, Sr, Sc 등은 황사에서 2-4.2배 높아졌다. 그러므로 이들 원소들을 황사발생의 지시원소로 사용할 수 있으며, 특히 Sr, V, Cr 및 Li 등은 황사 발생을 판단하기 위한 지시원소로 사용하기에 적합한 것으로 보인다. 한편 황사의 이동경로에 따른 미량원소의 함량을 살펴본 결과, 중국의 대도시 및 산업단지를 경유하여 국내 유입된 황사가, 북한을 경유하여 국내에 도달한 황사에 비해서, S, Cd, Zn, Pb, Cu, Mo 및 As 함량이 높게 나타나, 황사의 이동경로가 이들 미량원소 오염 여부 및 오염도를 결정하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다. 황사 및 대기부유물 내 미량원소의 부화지수(Enrichment factor)을 기준으로 오염정도를 분류한 결과, 환경재해 측면에서 가장 문제가 되는 미량원소는 S, Zn, Cu, Pb, As, Mo, Cd이며, 이들은 인간의 건강 뿐만 아니라, 오랜 기간 토양과 수계환경에 퇴적될 경우 환경오염으로 인한 주변 생태계에 해로운 영향을 미치게 될 것으로 판단된다.
