본 논문에서는 버퍼막 두께 및 열처리 온도에 따른 ZnO/b-ZnO/p-Si(111) 기반 이종접합 다이오드 전류 특성에 대한 연구가 진행되었고, b-ZnO (ZnO buffer layer) 버퍼막 두께 및 열처리 온도에 따른 p-Si(111) 기판 위에 증착시킨 ZnO 박막의 구조적, 전기적 특성 또한 연구되었다. X-ray diffraction (XRD) 방법을 이용하여 ZnO 박막의 구조적 특성을 측정하였고, semiconductor parameter analyzer를 이용하여 ZnO/b-ZnO/p-Si(111) 이종접합 다이오드의 I-V 특성을 평가하였다. XRD 분석 결과 버퍼막 열처리 온도 $700^{\circ}C$, 버퍼막 두께 70 nm에서 ZnO 박막은 우세한 (002) 방향의 c-축 배향성을 갖는 육방정계(hexagonal wurtize) 결정 구조를 나타내었다. 전기적 특성인 운반자 농도, 비저항 값의 경우에는 버퍼막 열처리 온도 $700^{\circ}C$, 버퍼막 두께 50 nm에서 우수한 전기적 특성(비저항: $2.58{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$, 운반자 농도: $1.16{\times}10^{20}[cm^{-3}]$)을 보였다. 또한 ZnO/b-ZnO/p-Si(111) 이종접합 다이오드의 전류 특성은 버퍼막 열처리 온도 $700^{\circ}C$에서 버퍼막 두께가 증가할수록 전류 특성이 향상되는 경향을 보였다.

ZnS was chemically deposited as a buffer layer alternative to CdS, for use as a Cd-free buffer layer in $Cu(In_{1-x}Ga_x)Se_2$ (CIGS) solar cells. The deposition of a thin film of ZnS was carried out by chemical bath deposition, following which the structural and optical properties of the ZnS layer were studied. For the experiments, zinc sulfate hepta-hydrate ($ZnSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$), thiourea ($SC(NH_2)_2$), and ammonia ($NH_4OH$) were used as the reacting agents. The mole concentrations of $ZnSO_4$ and $SC(NH_2)_2$ were fixed at 0.03 M and 0.8 M, respectively, while that of ammonia, which acts as a complexing agent, was varied from 0.3 M to 3.5 M. By varying the mole concentration of ammonia, optimal values for parameters like optical transmission, deposition rate, and surface morphology were determined. For the fixed mole concentrations of $0.03M\;ZnSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ and $0.8M\;SC(NH_2)_2$, it was established that 3.0 M of ammonia could provide optimal values of the deposition rate (5.5 nm/min), average optical transmittance (81%), and energy band gap (3.81 eV), rendering the chemically deposited ZnS suitable for use as a Cd-free buffer layer in CIGS solar cells.

실리콘 기판 위에 GaN를 성장하기 위해서 AlN 완충층을 사용해 왔다. 그러나 AlN은 아직까지 high doping이 쉽지 않기 때문에, 이로 인해 AlN를 전자소자나 광소자 제작을 위한 완충층으로 이용하는 경우 직렬 저항의 증가라는 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 AlN 완충층 대신에 금속 완충층을 사용하여 실리콘 기판 위에 GaN 박막 성장실험을 수행하였다. Al, Ti, Cr 그리고 Au 등을 금속 완충층으로 사용하여 실리콘 기판 위에 GaN 층을 성장하였다. 성장된 GaN 박막의 표면 특성을 분석하기 위해 광학현미경과 SEM을 사용하였고, 결정성과 광학적 특성을 평가하기 위하여 PL과 XRD 분석을 실시하였으며 AlN 완충층을 사용한 경우와 금속 완충층을 사용한 경우의 저항 차이를 확인하기 위하여 전류-전압 특성을 측정하였다.

The electrokinetic technology was applied in bioremediation for the purpose of supplying a Pseudomonas strain capable of degrading diesel to contaminated soil bed, and their biodegradation of diesel was carried out after a desired cell distribution was obtained. Electrokinetic injection of the strain was made possible because the cells acted as negatively charged particles at neutral pH, and thus the cells were transported with a precise directionality through the soil mostly by the mechanism of electrophoresis and in part by electroosmosis. A severe pH change in the soil bed was formed due to the penetration of electrolysis products, which was harmful to the cell viability and cell transport. To achieve a desirable cell transport and distribution, the control of pH in soil bed by a recirculating buffer solution in electrode chambers was essential during the appliation of an electric field. The judicious selections of electrolyte concentration and conductivity were also important for achieving an efficient electrokinetic cell transport since a higher electrolyte concentration favored the maintenance of pH stability in soil bed, but lowered electrophoretic mobility on the other hand. With electrolyte solution of pH 7 phosphate buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport than 0.02 M and 0.08 M. The cell under pH 8 were obtained, compared to the cells under pH 7 or pH 9 in a given time period Up to $60\%$ of diesel was degraded in 8 days by the Pseudomonas cell, which were distributed electrokinetically under the conditions of pH 8 ($1,800{\mu}S/cm$, a mixture of phosphate and ammonia buffers) and 40 mA in a soil bed of 15 cm length.

We have studied the migration behavior of single-stranded DNA using capillary gel electrophoresis under various conditions. It was found that optimum electric fields should be less than 150 V/cm for the good tradeoff between the separation time and the resolution. It seems that the gel matrix with the combination of different polymer average molecular weights is important to extend the maximum readable DNA bases. The total gel concentration less than 3.1% in the mixed gel system showed good separation efficiency up to 600 bases. The best result was obtained with the poy(ethylene)oxide (PEO) gel concentration of 1.2% of Mr 8,000,000 and 1.8% of Mr 600,000. We observed that the capillary length between 50 cm to 100 cm (effective length) should be employed for the optimization between the total DNA migration time and the maximum readable length. A trizma base-boric acid-ethlyenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) (TBE) buffer was commonly used for DNA sequencing, but we found that 3-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl amino]-1-propane sulfonic acid (TAPS) buffer worked as well for the single-stranded DNA separation. Especially, TAPS buffer showed a good resolution for very short DNA bases (1 to 30 bases).

Transparent and conducting IGZO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering on thin Cu coated glass substrates to investigate the effect of a Cu buffer layer on the structural, optical, and electrical film properties. Although X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that both the IGZO single layer and IGZO/Cu bi-layered films were in the amorphous phase, the IGZO/Cu films showed a lower resistivity of 5.7×10⁻⁴ Ωcm due to the increased mobility and high carrier concentration. The decreased optical transmittance of the IGZO/Cu films was also attributed to a one order of magnitude higher carrier concentration than the IGZO films. From the observed results, the thin Cu layer is postulated to be an effective buffer film that can enhance the opto-electrical performance of the IGZO films in transparent thin film transistors.

본 연구에서는 DOPC 리포좀의 안정성에 대한 염의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 증류수, phosphate buffer, 그리고 phosphate bufferd saline으로 리포좀을 제조하였다. 그리고 염의 추가에 따른 리포좀의 입자크기 및 제타전위 등 기본적인 물성 변화를 확인하였다. 그에 앞서 희석에 대한 영향을 알아보고자 리포좀을 각각 제조시 용매로 40배와 80배로 희석하였고 그 결과 같은 용매로 희석시킬 경우 40배 희석까지는 안정한 것을 확인하였다. 증류수로 제조한 리포좀을 증류수, phosphate buffer, 그리고 phosphate buffered saline으로 희석하였고, phosphate buffer로 제조한 리포좀은 phosphate buffer, 그리고 phosphate buffered saline으로 희석하여 염 농도 증가에 따른 리포좀의 입자크기 및 제타전위 변화를 확인하였다. 그 결과 리포좀 분산액 내에 존재하는 염의 양이 증가할수록 리포좀의 입자크기가 약간씩 작아지는 경향을 나타내었고, 제타전위 또한 염의 양이 증가할수록 0에 가까워지는 경향을 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 리포좀의 입자크기와 제타전위는 리포좀의 안정성을 판단할 수 있는 좋은 요소이며 또한 리포좀 제조시의 용매와 다른 조건의 염농도는 리포좀 입자의 안정성에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다고 사료된다.

Cross-linked starch microspheres were prepared using different kinds of cross-linking agents. The influence of several parameters on morphology, size, swelling ratio and drug release rate from these microspheres were evaluated. These parameters included cross-linker type, concentration and the duration of cross-linking reaction. Microspheres cross-linked with glutaraldehyde had smooth surface compared with those prepared with epichlorhydrine or formaldehyde. The particle size increased with increasing the cross-linking time and increasing the drug loading. Swelling ratio of the particles was a function of cross-linker type but not the concentration or time of cross-linking. Drug release from starch microspheres was measured in phosphate buffer and also in phosphate buffer containing a-amylase. Results showed that microspheres cross-linked with epichlorhydrine released all their drug content in the first 30 minutes. However, cross-linking of the starch microspheres with glutaraldehyde or formaldehyde decreased drug release rate. SEM and drug release studies showed that cross-linked starch microspheres were susceptible to the enzymatic degradation under the influence of alpha-amylase. Changing the enzyme concentration from 5000 to 10,000 IU/L, increased drug release rate but higher concentration of enzyme (20,000 IU/L) caused no more acceleration.

분무법을 이용한 alginate microsphere를 제조한 결과 구형을 형성하는 것을 관찰하였고, 이러한 alginate microsphere에서 alginate 농도가 증가할수록 크기는 작아지고, chitosan/alginate microsphere에서 chitosan의 농도가 증가할수록 그 크기가 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. OVA의 방출정도는 alginate microsphere에서 alginate 농도가 증가할수록 잘 이루어지지 않았고, HCl buffer에서보다 PBS buffer에서 방출이 잘되는 것을 확인하였다. Chitosan/alginate microspheres에서는 chitosan의 농도가 증가할수록 방출이 잘되지 않았고, 이는 alginate microsphere에서와 마찬가지로 PBS buffer에서 방출이 잘 이루어지는 것을 확인하였다.
