  • 급속한 산업의 발달은 심각한 환경오염 및 에너지 문제를 가져왔다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 무한한 에너지원인 태양에너지를 원천으로 하는 친환경 정화소재로서의 광촉매(photocatalyst)를 통하여 인류의 에너지를 확보하는 것에 대한 관심이 급격하게 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 현재 광촉매로 가장 많이 사용되는 $TiO_2$의 경우 뛰어난 광활성과 저렴한 가격, 광 안정성, 화학적 안정성을 가짐에도 불구하고, 3.2 eV라는 상대적으로 넓은 band gap을 가지기 때문에 약 386 nm보다 짧은 파장을 갖는 자외선만 흡수할 수 있다. 이로 인한 가시광 응답성의 부재를 해결하기 위해 수십년간 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 ICP assisted pulsed DC reactive magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 $TiO_2$를 기반으로 하면서 가시광영역의 빛을 흡수하여 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있도록 Nitrogen doping, Low band gap semi-conductor sensitization 등의 방법을 사용하여 광촉매를 제작하였다. 시료의 chemical state와 crystallinity를 확인하기 위하여 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy와 X-ray diffraction method를 이용하여 분석을 수행하였으며, 이러한 공정을 통해 제작된 $TiO_2$기반 광촉매의 가시광 응답성을 확인하기 위하여 UV/Vis 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 또한 물 분해 장치(water splitting device)를 제작하여 수소와 산소 생성시 흐르는 전류를 측정하여 광특성을 평가하였다.

  • In this study, we proposed to synthesize thermally stable, soluble and conjugated Schiff base polymer (SbP). For this reason, a specific molecule namely 4,4'-thiodiphenol which has sulfur and oxygen bridge in its structure was used to synthesize bi-functional monomers. Bi-functional amino and carbonyl monomers namely 4,4'-[thio-bis(4,1-phenyleneoxy)] dianiline (DIA) and 4,4'-[thiobis(4,1-phenyleneoxy)]dibenzaldehyde (DIB) were prepared from the elimination reaction of 4,4'-thiodiphenol with 4-iodonitrobenzene and 4-iodobenzaldehyde, respectively. The structures of products were confirmed by elemental analysis, FTIR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{13}C$ NMR techniques. The molecular weight distribution parameters of SbP were determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC). The synthesized SbP was characterized by solubility tests, TG-DTA and DSC. Also, conductivity values of SbP and SbP-iodine complex were determined from their solid conductivity measurements. The conductivity measurements of doped and undoped SbP were carried out by Keithley 2400 electrometer at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, which were calculated via four-point probe technique. When iodine was used as a doping agent, the conductivity of SbP was observed to be increased. Optical band gap ($E_g$) of SbP was also calculated by using UV-Vis spectroscopy. It should be stressed that SbP was a semiconductor which had a potential in electronic and optoelectronic applications, with fairly low band gap. SbP was found to be thermally stable up to $300^{\circ}C$. The char of SbP was observed 29.86% at $1000^{\circ}C$.

  • In this study, ITO thin films were fabricated on a glass substrate at different thicknesses without introducing oxygen using RF sputtering system. The structural, electrical, and optical properties were evaluated at various thicknesses ranging from 50 to 300 mm. As the thickness of deposited ITO thin film become thicker from 50 to 100 mm, carrier concentration, mobility, and band gap energy also increased while the resistivity and transmittance decreased in the visible light region. When the film thickness increased from 100 to 300 mm, the carrier concentration, mobility, and band gap energy decreased while the resistivity and transmittance increased. The optimum electrical properties were obtained for the ITO film 100 nm. After optimizing the thickness, the ITO thin films were post-annealed at different temperatures ranging from 100 to 300℃. As the annealing temperature increased, the ITO crystal phase became clearer and the grain size also increased. In particular, the ITO thin film annealed at 300℃ indicated high carrier concentration (4.32 × 1021 cm-3), mobility (9.01 cm2/V·s) and low resistivity (6.22 × 10-4 Ω·cm). This means that the optimal post-annealing temperature is 300℃ and this ITO thin film is suitable for use in solar cells and display application.

  • The GaP crystals are growth by Synthesis Solute Diffusion(SSD) method and its properties are investigated. Etch pits density along vertical direction of ingot is increased from 3.8${\times}$10$^4$cm$\^$-2/ of first freeze to 2.3${\times}$10$\^$5/cm$\^$-2/ of last freeze part. The carrier concentration and mobilities are measured to 197.49$\textrm{cm}^2$/V. sec and 6.75${\times}$10$\^$15/cm$\^$-3/ at room temperature. The temperature dependence of optical energy gap is empilically fitted to E$\_$g/(T)=2.3383-(6.082${\times}$10$\^$-4/T${\times}$/(373.096+T)[eV]. Photo-luminescence spectra measured at low temperature are consist with sharp line-spectra near band-gap energy and radiative recombination between shallow Si-donor to Zn-acceptor and its phonon reprica, and broad emission. The infrared absorption in GaP is cause to phonon coupling modes of TO, LO, LA, TA$_1$, TA$_2$and vibration modes of Ga$_2$O, Si-donor and Zn-acceptor, respectively.

  • 본 논문은 0.25 um GaN HEMT 공정을 이용하여 S/C/X-대역에서 저항 피드백 구조의 저잡음 증폭기 MMIC에 관한 연구이다. GaN 소자는 높은 항복 전압과 에너지 밴드갭 그리고 고온에서 안정성을 갖는 고출력 소자로서 장점을 가진다. 따라서 높은 선형성을 가지는 GaN 소자를 이용한 수신기는 리미터 없이 구현할 수 있기 때문에 수신기의 잡음 지수가 개선되고, 수신기 모듈의 크기를 줄일 수 있다. 제안한 GaN 저잡음 증폭기 MMIC는 S/C/X-대역에서 15 dB 이상의 이득, 3 dB 이하의 잡음 지수, 13 dB 이상의 입력 반사 손실, 그리고 8 dB 이상의 출력 반사 손실을 가진다. GaN 저잡음 증폭기 MMIC는 드레인 전압 20 V, 게이트 전압 -3 V일 때, 70 mA의 전류를 소모한다.

  • Since first discovery of strong Raman spectrum of molecules adsorbed on rough noble metal, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been widely used for detection of molecules with low concentration. Surface plasmons at noble metal can enhance Raman spectrum and using Au nanostructures as substrates of SERS has advantages due to it has chemical stability and biocompatibility. However, the photoluminescence (PL) background from Au remains a problem because of obtaining molecular vibration information. Recently, graphene, two-dimensional atomic layer of carbon atoms, is also well known as PL quenchers for electronic and vibrational excitation. In this study, we observed SERS of single layer graphene on or under monolayer of Au nanoparticles (NPs). Single layer graphene is grown by chemical vapor deposition and transferred onto or under the monolayer of Au NPs by using PMMA transfer method. Monolayer of Au NPs prepared using Langmuir-Blodgett method on or under graphene surface provides closed and well-packed monolayer of Au NPs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy (WItec, 532 nm) were performed in order to confirm effects of Au NPs on enhanced Raman spectrum. Highly enhanced Raman signal of graphene by Au NPs were observed due to many hot-spots at gap of closed well-packed Au NPs. The results showed that single layer graphene provides larger SERS effects compared to multilayer graphene and the enhancement of the G band was larger than that of 2D band. Moreover, we confirm the appearance of D band in this study that is not clear in normal Raman spectrum. In our study, D band appearance is ascribed to the SERS effect resulted from defects induced graphene on Au NPs. Monolayer film of Au NPs under the graphene provided more highly enhanced graphene Raman signal compared to that on the graphene. The Au NPs-graphene SERS substrate can be possibly applied to biochemical sensing applications requiring highly sensitive and selective assays.

  • 티타늄 금속판을 공기산화와 수증기 산화하여 만든 Ti$O_{2-x}$ 박막을 시료로 사용하여 1M NaOH 용액에서 광전기화학적 성질을 연구하였다. 높은 온도에서 제조된 Ti$O_{2-x}$ 전극들은 낮은 온도에서 제조된 전극들보다 더 음의 값으로 주어지는 flat band potential($V_{fb}$)과 더 높은 donor density($N_D$)를 가졌다. 전극전위의 변화에 따른 광전류 측정과 Mott-Schottky plot로부터 얻은 $V_{fb}$는 -0.95 ∼ -1.1 V 사이에서 비슷한 값으로 주어졌다. 자외부 영역의 광을 완전히 차단하는 TiO2 단결정을 필터로 하여 가시부 영역의 광전류를 측정할 때 분해능이 좋은 slit를 사용한 경우 좋은 sub band gap 광반응을 볼 수 있었다.

  • New porous $TiO_2$ nanostructures with shapes of pearl and rice were synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of $TiO_2$-liposome nanocomposites in acid and base solutions, respectively, as identified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images and large Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface areas. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and selected area electron diffraction proved them to be well-defined anatase crystals. Their UV-visible reflectance absorption spectra were observed to have low band gap energy (3.03 and 3.07 eV, respectively), exhibiting surface absorption band in the visible range from 400 to 600 nm. The degradation of methylene blue (MB) over the $TiO_2$ nanostructures was observed upon visible-light irradiation, which was found to be very efficient as compared with any other conventional visible-light responsive $TiO_2$ nanostructures.

  • A new concept of piezoelectric smart panels for noise reduction in wide band frequencies is proposed and their possibility is experimentally investigated. The proposed panels are based on active and passive methods. They use piezoelectric smart structure technology for active noise reduction at low band frequencies and passive sound absorbing materials for mid-range of noise frequencies. To prove the concept of piezoelectric smart panels, an acoustic measurement experiment was performed. The smart panels exhibit a good noise reduction in middle and high frequency ranges due to the mass effects of absorbing materials or/and the air gap. The use of piezoelectric smart panel renders noise reduction large at resonance frequency. Another concept of smart panel that uses piezoelectric damping is experimentally investigated. Since piezoelectric dampings can reduce vibration and noise at resonance frequencies with simple shunt circuit, they have merits in terms of economy and simplicity. Dissipated energy method(DEM) is adopted to tune the shunt circuit precisely in piezoelectric dampings. Noise reduction at multiple resonance frequencies is demonstrated.

  • Silicon doped $Al_{0.32}Ga_{0.68}As$ were growth by molecular beam epitaxy. Electroreflectance(ER) spectra of the $E_1$ transition of Schottky barrier Au/n-$Al_{0.32}Ga_{0.68}As$ have been measured at various modulation voltage($V_{ac}$) and dc bias voltage($V_{bias}$). from the $E_1$peak, band gap energy of the $Al_{0.32}Ga_{0.68}As$ is 1.883 eV which corresponds to an Al composition of 32%. As modulation voltage($V_{bias}$) is changed, a line shape at the $E_1$transition does not change, but its amplitude varies linearly. The amplitude of $E_1$signal decrease with increasing the forward dc bias voltage($V_{bias}$), but the line shape does not change. It suggests that the low field theory rather than Franz-Keldysh oscillation is Required to interpret spectra. Also, spectra at the $E_1$transition were broadened with increasing the reverse dc bias voltage($V_{bias}$) which suggests the presence of Field-induced broadening.
