  • We report the synthesis of Ni-doped $BaFe_2Se_3$ single crystals by using a flux method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) of $Ba(Fe_{1-x}Ni_x)_2Se_3$ shows a gradual peak shift with an increase in the nominal Ni-doping rate, x = 0, 0.05, and 0.10, due to a decrease in unit-cell volume. All samples show a spin glass transition, and temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility shows a negligible change in the spin-glass transition temperature ($T_g$) with Ni concentration x. The temperature dependence of electrical resistivity for $BaFe_2Se_3$ shows an insulating behavior, and the resistivity value at 295 K and the activation energy ($E_a$) obtained from the Arrhenius plot decrease with increasing x. These results suggest that the Ni doping can be effectively worked as a dopant for electron charge carriers, but is less efficient in controlling the magnetic property, such as spin glass transition, in the $BaFe_2Se_3$ compound.

  • Graphene, two-dimensional one-atom-thick planar sheet of carbon atoms densely packed in a honeycomb crystal lattice, has grabbled appreciable attention due to its extraordinary mechanical, thermal, electrical, and optical properties. Based on the graphene's high carrier mobility, high frequency graphene field effect transistors have been developed. Graphene is useful for photonic components as well as for the applications in electronic devices. Graphene's unique optical properties allowed us to develop ultra wide-bandwidth optical modulator, photo-detector, and broadband polarizer. Graphene can support SPP-like surface wave because it is considered as a two-dimensional metal-like systems. The SPPs are associated with the coupling between collective oscillation of free electrons in the metal and electromagnetic waves. The charged free carriers in the graphene contribute to support the surface waves at the graphene-dielectric interface by coupling to the electromagnetic wave. In addition, graphene can control the surface waves because its charge carrier density is tunable by means of a chemical doping method, varying the Fermi level by applying gate bias voltage, and/or applying magnetic field. As an extended application of graphene in photonics, we investigated the characteristics of the graphene-based plasmonic waveguide for optical signal transmission. The graphene strips embedded in a dielectric are served as a high-frequency optical signal guiding medium. The TM polarization wave is transmitted 6 mm-long graphene waveguide with the averaged extinction ratio of 19 dB at the telecom wavelength of $1.31{\mu}m$. 2.5 Gbps data transmission was successfully accomplished with the graphene waveguide. Based on these experimental results, we concluded that the graphene-based plasmonic waveguide can be exploited further for development of next-generation integrated photonic circuits on a chip.

  • Highly (h00)-oriented (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$(BST) thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition on the perovskite LaNiO$_3$(LNO) metallic oxide layer as a bottom electrode. The LNO films were deposited on SiO$_2$/Si substrates by rf-magnetron sputtering method. The crystalline phases of the BST film were characterized by x-ray $\theta$-2$\theta$, $\omega$-rocking curve and $\psi$-scan diffraction measurements. The surface microsturcture observed by scanning electron microscopy was very dense and smooth. The low-frequency dielectric responses of the BST films grown at various substrate temperatures were measured as a function of frequency in the frequency range from 0.1 Hz to 10 MHz. The BST films have the dielectric constant of 265 at 1 kHz and showed multiple dielectric relaxation at the low frequency region. The origin of these low-frequency dielectric relaxation are attributed to the ionized space charge carriers such as the oxygen vacancies and defects in BST film, the interfacial polarization in the grain boundary region and the electrode polarization. We studied also on the capacitance-voltage characteristics of BST films.

  • TiO₂nanoparticles were synthesized using the metallorganic chemical vapor deposition process. Particles with and without metal ion dopants were obtained. X-ray photoelectron and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopic measurements confirmed the stoichiometry of the TiO₂nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction patterns showed a polycrystalline anatase structure of TiO₂. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that these particles are of nanoscale dimensions. Exact particle size and size distribution analyses were carried out by dynamic light scattering. The average particle size was determined to be 22 nm. The nanosize particles provided large surface area for photocatalysis and a large number of free surface-charge carriers, which are crucial for the enhancement of photocatalytic activity. To improve the photocatalytic activity, metal ions, including transition metal ions $(Pd^{2+},\;Pt^{4+},\;Fe^{3+})$ and lanthanide ion $(Nd^{3+})$ were added to pure TiO₂nanoparticles. The effects of dopants on photocatalytic kinetics were investigated by the degradation of 2-chlorophenol under an ultraviolet light source. The results showed that the TiO₂nanoparticles with the metal ion dopants have higher photocatalytic activity than undoped TiO₂. The $Nd^{3+}$ ion of these dopant metal ions showed the highest catalytic activity. The difference in the photocatalytic activity with different dopants is related to the different ionic radii of the dopants.

  • Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 고분자의 유기용매 함유능을 증대시키기 위하여 PAN을 수정한 새로운 polyacrylonitrile-co-bis[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]itaconate (PANI로 약칭) 공중합체를 합성하였다. PAN과 PANI의 혼합 고분자에 ethylene carbonate (EC)와 dimethyl carbonate (DMC)의 혼합유기용매, $LiClO_4$ 염을 혼합한 젤 고분자 전해질을 제조하였다. 상온에서의 이온전도도는 25PAN +10PANl +50EC/DMC+$15LiClO_4$ 조성의 전해질에서 $2\times10^{-3}\; Scm^{-1}$로 가장 높은 값을 나타내었다. 이는 PANI의 혼합으로 인하여 유기용매 영역의 결정질 성분이 줄어들고, 따라서 전하운반자의 수가 증가하기 때문인 것으로 분석하였다. PANI를 고분자 기질로 적당량 첨가하면, PAN만을 단용으로 사용한 젤-전해질에 비해 기계적 강도가 감소하는 단점이 있기는 하지만, 이온전도성, 열적 특성, 용매와의 혼화성, 전기화학적 안정성, 리튬 전극과의 계면 안정성 등 거의 모든 면에서 성능이 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Photoelectrochemical performances of ZnO electrodes are enhanced by coupling with cobalt-based catalyst (CoPi) in phosphate electrolyte (pH 7). For this study, hexagonal pillar-shaped ZnO nanorods are grown on ZnO electrodes through a chemical bath deposition, onto which CoPi is deposited with different photodeposition times (10-30 min). A scanning electron microscopic study indicates that CoPi deposition does not induce any change of ZnO morphology and an energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopic analysis shows that inorganic phosphate ions (Pi) exist on ZnO surface. Bare ZnO electrodes generate the current of ca. $0.36mA/cm^2$ at a bias potential of 0.5 V vs. SCE, whereas ZnO/CoPi (deposited for 10 min) has ca. 50%-enhanced current ($0.54mW/cm^2$) under irradiation of AM 1.5G-light ($400mW/cm^2$). The excess loading of CoPi on ZnO results in decrease of photocurrents as compared to bare ZnO likely due to limited electrolyte access to ZnO and/or CoPi-mediated recombination of photogenerated charge carriers. The primary role of CoPi is speculated to trap the photogenerated holes and thereby oxidize water into molecular oxygen via an intervalency cycle among Co(II), Co(III), and Co(IV).

  • 여러 가지 탄소물질을 사용하여 변형된 스테인레스 금속재 Two-bulbs를 사용하여 Li-CIC를 합성하였다. 합성한 결과 출발물질의 구조적 특성에 따라 여러 가지 색깔의 층간화합물이 각각 형성되었다. 합성된 Li-CIC들은 X-선 회절법을 이용하여 출발물질의 결정화도에 따라 stage 형성과정을 확인하였다. 이들 결과에서 출발물질의 결정화도가 좋은 천연흑연과 흑연섬유는 낮은 stage(1 stage, 2 stage)가 형성되었고, 결정화도가 나쁜 탄소섬유와 석유계 코크스는 높은 stage(3 stage, 4 stage, 5 stage)가 얻어졌다. 또한 (hkl)회절선의 이값을 계산된 값과 비교하였을 때 이들 값들은 거의 일치하였다. 그러나 결정화도가 나쁜 경우 다소의 차이가 있음을 보이고 있다. 이들 Li-CIC에 대하여 UV/VIS 분광기를 사용하여 stage 안정성과 에너지 상태를 알수 있었다. X-선 회절법에 의한 결과와 UV/VIS 분광학적 데이터는 결정화도가 좋은 탄소물질은 에너지와 반사율의 관계곡선이 뚜렷하게 나타났음을 제시하였다. 이들 결과는 타소층과 층사이에 전하운반자와 관계가 있으며, 이들 성질이 삽입물질의 농도와 관계있음을 알수 있었다. 뿐만 아니라 본 연구는 Li-CIC의 삽입과정에서 고성능 에너지 저장제에 대한 정보를 역시 제공하여 준다.

  • 한국어 자음에 대한 생리적인 분류는 조음점 및 조음발법에 따라 다시 세분화할 수 있는데 그중에서 조음발법에 따라 파열음, 마찰음, 파찰음 및 비음들 여러가지로 분류할 수 있다. 그중 특히 파열음은 그 개방하는 방법에 따라 연음(lenis), 경음(glottalized) 및 기식음(aspirated)등으로 구분하는데 이러한 각음을 육안으로 확인하면 모음이 발성되기 위한 성대진동이 있기전의 자음을 위한 성대의 운동의 현상을 보면 기식음에서는 성대열림이 가장 크고 연음에서도 열림이 크지만 기식음보다는 적고 경음에서는 성대의 열림이 가장 작았다. 이러한 현상은 후두내시경에 의해 쉽게 확인할 수 있었는데 이것을 과학적으로 규명하기 위해서는 여러연구에 의해 가능하나 흔히 후두근전도 검사에 의한 성대내전근과 외전근의 역할의 차이를 비교함으로서 가능해지리라 예상되어 본 연구를 시행하였다. 사용된 문형 또는 단어는 한가지를 제외하고는 모두 의미있는 단어를 사용하였으며 EMG recording을 위해 사용된 근육은 후두내전근인 Vocalis muscle과 후두외전근인 Posterior cricoarytenoid muscle이 사용되었고 전기신호는 computer data processing system에 의해 분석되어졌다. 결과는 내시경에 의한 성대열림의 거리측정 결과를 분석함과 동시에 후두내근에 대한 근전도검사에 의한 분석을 토대로 하였으며 이를 간단히 설명하면 이제까지 많은 사람들은 한국어 자음에 대한 각각의 특징적인 현상들을 주로 성대내전근의 역할에 의해 규명하였으나 본 결과로는 성대내전근의 역할도 중요하지만 성대외전근의 역할 또한 상호 연관성을 가지면서 매우 중요한 역할을 한다는 점이다.for the Isotropic plates can be used.

  • Efficient and inexpensive solar cells are necessary for photo-voltaic to be widely adopted for mainstream electricity generation. For this to occur, the recombination losses of charge carriers (i.e. electrons or holes) must be minimized using a surface passivation technique suitable for manufacturing. Recently it has been shown that aluminum oxide thin films are negatively charged dielectrics that provide excellent surface passivation of silicon solar cells to attract positive-charged holes. Especially aluminum oxide thin film is a quite suitable passivation on the rear side of p-type silicon solar cells. This paper, it demonstrate the interfacial microstructure and electrical properties of mono-crystalline silicon surface passivated by $Al_2O_3$ films during firing process as applied for screen-printed solar cells. The first task is a comparison of the interfacial microstructure and chemical bonds of PECVD $Al_2O_3$ and of PEALD $Al_2O_3$ films for the surface passivation of silicon. The second is to study electrical properties of double-stacked layers of PEALD $Al_2O_3$/PECVD SiN films after firing process in the temperature range of $650{\sim}950^{\circ}C$.
