해양 기원의 발광박테리아 Vibrio fischeri를 이용한 발광박테리아 독성시험법은 1980년대 초반에 소개된 이후 많은 연구자들에 의해 이용되어오다 1998년 국제공인시험법으로 등재되어 지금은 전 세계적으로 이용되고 있다. 이 시험법은 테스트하고자하는 화학물질이나 환경시료에 발광박테리아를 30분간 노출시킨 후 나타나는 발광량 감소의 정도로서 독성 유무나 강도를 평가하는 방법으로서 신속성, 정밀성, 민감성, 경제성이 뛰어나다는 평가를 받고 있으며, 시험생물의 유지/배양없이 상용화된 키트 제품을 이용하여 독성 시험을 수행할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 해양성 발광 박테리아 독성평가 키트로 판매되는 상용화제품(N-Tox)을 이용하여 수행된 결과를 제시하였다. 시험법 개발 및 표준화를 위한 시험항목으로는 시료 주입량, 발광량과 같은 기본 항목 테스트와 표준독성물질을 이용한 정도관리 테스트, 화학물질 및 현장시료에 대한 테스트가 포함되었다. 이 시험법은 자동화되어 누구나 쉽게 수행이 가능하면서도, 시험 결과 독성물질에 대한 용량-반응 관계가 확실하게 평가되고, 정밀도가 뛰어나며, 현장시료 독성평가에 이용할 수 있을 정도의 민감성을 지닌 것으로 입증되었다. 따라서 아직 생물검정이 보편화되지 않은 국내에서 편리하게 이용할 수 있는 표준독성시험방법의 하나로서 활용 가능하다고 사료된다.

In this study, we attempt to synthesize the $Sr_{3}SiO_{5}:Eu$ yellow phosphor by sol-gel technique. Based on the blue emitting diodes as primary light source, white light emitting diodes have been manufactured using the $Sr_{3}SiO_{5}:Eu$ yellow phosphor as the luminescent material. Luminescent efficiency of yellow phosphor as well as that of blue LED is very important factor to enhance the luminescent efficiency of white LED. In order to improve the luminescent efficiency, we have synthesized the $Sr_{3}SiO_{5}:Eu$ phosphor by sol-gel technique. To research optimum condition of gelation reaction, the ratio of $H_{2}O$ to TEOS was fixed as 60:1. When the drying temperature was at $100^{\circ}C$, emission intensity was better than at $70^{\circ}C$. The critical $Eu^{2+}$ concentration was estimated to be about 0.05 mol and sintering temperature at $1300^{\circ}C$ was indicated best emission intensity.

In this paper, we describe the luminescent properties of the phosphors synthesized via sol-gel technique. When the phosphor prepared by sol-gel technique, reaction factors, such as pH condition, $R_w$ and drying temperature affected the luminescent intensity, particle size and morphology of final product. Therefore, we attempt to control these reaction factors in order to improve the luminescent efficiency of phosphors. As a result of our study, when the acid catalyst (HCl) was used, emission intensity was higher than the case of base catalyst $(NH_4OH)$. The product prepared at $R_w=60$ indicated the maximum intensity. As the increase of the $R_w$ value, the particle was agglomerated and emission intensity was decreased. Finally, optimum drying temperature of gel was found to be$ 180^{\circ}C$.

청색 발광특성을 갖는 CaWO$_4$ 형광체를 rf 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 박막화를 시도하고,증착변수와 열처리 조건이 발광특성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 증착조건인 산소/아르곤 가스비, 기판온도에 따라서 박막의 구조적, 화학양론적 물성이 크게 영향을 받고 있었다. 후 열처리 공정에 의하여 발광특성의 향상을 얻을 수 있었다. 산소공공에 의한 청록색 영역의 발광도 관찰되었으며, 박막내의 산소결함이 제어되면서 청색 발광스펙트럼을 얻을 수 있었다.

A novel carbazole functionalized bis-$\beta$-diketone type organic ligand, 1,1′-(2,6-bispyridyl)bis-3-(9-ethylcarbazole- 3-yl)-1,3-propanedione ($H_2L$) and its corresponding lanthanide complexes $Eu_2(L)_3\;and\;Tb_2(L)_3$ were successfully prepared. The ligand and complexes were characterized in detail based on FT-IR spectra, $^1H$ NMR and elemental analysis. The observed UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of the complexes were investigated, it shows that the Eu(III) and Tb(III) ions can be sensitized efficiently by the ligand ($H_2L$) to some extent, in particular, the complex $Tb_2(L)_3$ exhibits a more excellent luminescence property than the Eu(III) complex. Meanwhile, the introduction of the carbazole moiety can enlarge the $\Pi$-conjugated system of the ligand and enhance the luminescent intensity of the complexes. The results show that the complexes would be used as excellent luminescent materials.

In this paper, core-shell semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) CdSeS/ZnS with emission at 490 nm and 450 nm were investigated for their use in luminescent down-shifting (LDS) layers. Luminescent quantum yield (LQY) of the QDs measurements in solution proposed that they were suitable candidates for inclusion in LDS layers. QDs were encapsulated in poly(methyl,methacrylate) (PMMA) polymer matrix and films were fabricated of $134{\pm}0.05$ microns. Selections of organic dyes from BASF Lumogen F range were also investigated for their use as LDS layers; Violet 570 and Yellow 083. The addition of LDS layers containing Violet 570 dye demonstrated a unity LQY when encapsulated within a PMMA matrix. A PV device of an LDS layer of Lumogen Violet 570 deposited on top of a crystalline silicon cell was fabricated where it was demonstrated to increase the efficiency of the cell by 34.5% relative.

Luminescent metallic clusters have attracted great interest due to their unique optical, electronic and chemical features. Comparing with intensively studied Au and Ag Clusters, Cu clusters are superior in the aspects of cost and wide industrial demanding. However, tiny copper clusters are extremely prone to aggregate and undergo susceptibility of oxidation, thereby the synthesis of fluorescent zero valent copper clusters is rather challenging. In this review, synthetic strategies towards luminescent copper clusters, including macromolecule-protection and micro molecule-capping, have been systematically surveyed. Both "bottom-up" and "top-down" synthetic routes are found to be effective in fabricating luminescent copper clusters, some of which are quite stable and possess decent luminescence quantum yields. In general, the synthesis of fluorescent copper clusters remains at its infant stage. A great deal of effort on developing novel and economic synthetic routes to produce bright and stable copper clusters is highly expected in future.

전자빔 증착 장비를 이용하여 SrS:CuCl TFEL 소자를 제작한 후, 발광특성을 조사하였다. 형광체 모체는 SrS 분말을 사용하였고, 발광중심체로는 CuCl 분말을 0.05 ~ 0.6 at% 범위에서 첨가하였다. 증착 온도 500℃, 전자빔 전류 20 ~ 40 mA 및 증착율 5 ~ 10 /sec의 조건에서 형광층 두께를 6000 으로 증착시켰다. CuCl 농도가 낮을 때에는 monomer, dimer, trimer 및 tetramer 발광센터에 의한 청색 발광을 확인할 수 있었으나 휘도가 낮았다. CuCl 농도가 높을 때에는 dimer와 trimer 발광센터에 의한 밝은 녹청색 빛을 방출하였다. 최적의 발광특성은 CuCl 농도를 0.2 at% 첨가한 SrS:CuCl TFEL 소자에서 관찰되었으며, 문턱전압, 휘도(L/sub 40/), 효율(η/sub 20/) 및 CIE 색좌표는 각각 55 V, 728 cd/㎡, 0.49 lm/W 및 (0.21, 0.33)을 나타내었다.

The fluorescence emission spectrum of Cr$^{3+}$ doped BeAl$_{6}$ O$_{10}$ crystals at 300 K contains a broad band, three R-like lines and another emission lines. It has been identified by a lifetime resolution spectroscopic technique that there are three kinds of single-Cr$^{3+}$ centers, Cr(I), Cr(II), Cr(III), in this crystal. Cr(I) and Cr(II) are high-crystal field centers responsible for the three main "R-lines", and Cr(III) is a low-crystal field center responsible for the main broad band emission. The structures of these luminescent centers are reported.ted.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that degrade the extracellular matrix (ECM) and regulate the extracellular microenvironment. Despite the significant role that MMP activity plays in cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions, migration, and differentiation, analyses of MMPs in vitro and in vivo have relied upon their abundance using conventional immunoassays, rather than their enzymatic activities. To resolve this issue, diverse nanoprobes have emerged and proven useful as effective activity-based detection tools. Here, we review the recent advances in luminescent nanoprobes and their applications in in vitro diagnosis and in vivo imaging of MMP activity. Nanoprobes with the purpose of sensing MMP activity consist of recognition and detection units, which include MMP-specific substrates and luminescent (fluorescent or bioluminescent) nanoparticles, respectively. With further research into improvement of the optical performance, it is anticipated that luminescent nanoprobes will have great potential for the study of the functional roles of proteases in cancer biology and nanomedicine.
