Zn, Bi 와 V 금속이온 전구체를 사용하여 모노클리닉 결정구조를 갖는 신규 ZnBiVO4 광촉매를 손쉽게 합성 할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. 합성된 $ZnBiVO_4$ 광촉매는 XRD 과 FESEM등을 이용하여 미세구조를 분석하였으며, 분석결과 본 삼성분계 금속산화물 반도체 광촉매는 모노클리닉 결정구조를 갖는 것을 알 수 있었다. 저온 수용액방법에 의해 손쉽게 나노 구조를 갖는 $ZnBiVO_4$가 제조되었으며, 그 광촉매의 최소 입자크기는 20-30 nm 이다. $ZnBiVO_4$ 광촉매는 UV-visible DRS (diffuse reflectance spectroscopy)로 그 띠간격(band gap)을 측정하였으며, FT-IR을 사용하여 구조 및 물질 상의 순도를 확인하였다. 그리고 $H_2S$를 광분해하여 수소를 발생하는($122ml/hr{\cdot}g$) 우수한 광촉매 활성을 보여 주었다.

Recently, in order to improve the performance of the colloidal quantum dot solar cells (CQDSCs), various efforts such as the modification of the cell architecture and surface treatment for quantum dot (QD) passivation have been made. Especially, the incorporation of halides into the QD matrix was reported to improve the performances significantly via passivating QD trap states that lower the life-time of the minority-carrier. In this work, we fabricated a lead sulfide (PbS) QD bilayer treated with different ligands and utilized it as a photoactive layer of the CQDSCs. The bottom and top PbS layer was treated using metal iodide ($MI_x$ and butanedithiol (BuDT), respectively. All the depositions and ligand treatments were carried out in air using layer-by-layer spin-coating process. The fabrication of the active layers as well as the n-type zinc oxide (ZnO) layer was successfully carried out on the bendable indium-tin-oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, which implies that this technique can be applied to the fabrication of flexible and/or wearable solar cells. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the CQDSCs with the architecture of $PET/ITO/ZnO/PbS-MI_x/PbS-BuDT/MoO_x/Ag$ reached 4.2 %, which is significantly larger than that of the cells with single QD (PbS-BuDT) layer.

[ $MoS_2S$ ] is a well-known metal sulfide applied as solid lubricants and an additive to prolong the life of sintered bearings under severe conditions. However, the high price of $MoS_2S$ limited its wide application. This study is aimed to investigated the possibility for application to solid lubricants for $Cu_2S$ as a substitute of v. Bronzes added $Cu_2S$ and $MoS_2S$ are produced by powder metallurgy in this study, and then evaluated their friction and wear properties. The sliding wear test using pin-on-disc type machine, was conducted at several sliding speeds for three type test pieces, bronze and bronzes added $Cu_2S/MoS_2$. Addition of $Cu_2S$ to bronze leads to relatively good friction and wear properties, although it is not so good as addition of $MoS_2S$. But the properties of bronze added $Cu_2S/MoS_2$ would be not suitable for the condition under the high sliding speed.

The effectiveness of in situ sediment capping as a technique for heavy metal risk mitigation in Hyeongsan River estuary, South Korea was studied. Sites in the estuary were found previously to show moderate to high levels of contamination of mercury, methylmercury and other heavy metals. A 400 m x 50 m section of the river was selected for a thin layer capping demonstration, where the total area was divided into 4 sections capped with different combinations of capping materials (zeolite, AC/zeolite, AC/sand, zeolite/sand). Pore water concentrations in the different sites were studied using diffusive gradient in thin film (DGT) probes. All capping amendments showed reduction in the pore water concentration of the different heavy metals with top 5 cm showing %reduction greater than 90% for some heavy metals. The relative maxima for the different metals were found to be translated to lower depths with addition of the caps. For two-layered cap with AC, order of placement should be considered since AC can easily be displaced due to its relatively low density. Investigation of methylmercury (MeHg) in the site showed that MeHg and %MeHg in pore water corresponds well with maxima for sulfide, Fe and Mn suggesting mercury methylation as probably coupled with sulfate, Fe and Mn reduction in sediments. Our results showed that thin-layer capping of active sorbents AC and zeolite, in combination with passive sand caps, are potential remediation strategy for sediments contaminated with heavy metals.

The results of numerous studies in III-V semiconductors show that sulfur treatment improves the electrical parameters of III-V compound devices. In this article, we examine the effects of sulfidation of HgCdTe surface on the interfacial characteristics of metal-ZnS-HgCdTe structures. Different from sulfidation in III-V material, S can not be act as an impurity because II-S compounds (ZnS, CdS) generally used as passivant for HgCdTe. Our studies of sulfur-treatment on HgCdTe surface show that sulfur agent forms the S- S, II-S bonds at the surface layer. These bonds are very effective to improve the electrical properties of ZnS layer on HgCdTe by reducing the possibility of native oxides formation. After the sulfidation process, MIS capacitors of HgCdTe show great improvement in electrical properties, such as low density of fixed charge and reduced hystereisis width.

Addition of $Cu_2S$ to bronze leads to relatively good friction properties, although it is not so good as addition of $MoS_2$. However, the wear properies of sintered bronze added $Cu_2S$ are better than that of sintered bronze added $MoS_2$.

Total extraction of stream sediments in the Kwangyang mine area shows their significant pollution with most trace metals such as Cr, Co, Fe, Pb, Cu, Ni, Zn and Cd, due to sulfide oxidation in waste dumps. Calculations of enrichment factor shows that Chonam-ri creek sediments are more severely contaminated than Sagok-ri sediments. Using the weak acid (0.1N HCl) extraction and sequential extraction techniques, the transport and sediment-water partitioning of heavy metals in mine drainage were examined for contaminated sediments in the Chonam-ri and Sagok-ri creeks of the Kwangyang Au-Ag mine area. Calculated distribution coefficient (Kd) generally decreases in the order of Pb $\geq$Al > Cu > Mn > Zn > Co > Ni $\geq$ Cd. Sequential extraction of Chonam-ri creek sediments shows that among non-residual fractions the Fe-Mn oxide fraction is most abundant for most of the metals. This indicates that precipitation of Fe hydroxides plays an important role in regulating heavy metal concentrations in water, as shown by field observations.

During the 11 year period of 1995-2005, there was about a 40% increase in the world copper demand mainly because of the Asian economic growth. In the increase, about a half was consumed by China. Most of the China's copper demand increase has been taken place over the final 5-6 years of that period. The growth is expected to continue for several years, and in 10 years or sooner the same situation is expected for India. Copper is the third metal in global demand, but its little abundance in the Earth's crust is not well recognized. From the production rate and the abundance, a copper shortage, or crisis, has a high probability than the other metals. Deep ocean mineral resources such as manganese nodules in the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zones, Kuroko-type massive seafloor sulfides (SMS), and cobalt-rich manganese crusts in the EEZ and the high sea areas have big potentials for the future sources. We need to re-evaluate their potentials as copper resources and other metals to realize their developments. The same situation is under progress in the hydro-carbon markets. Methane hydrates that are classified into non-conventional hydro-carbon resources have an important role as the future sources, too.

As the electrodes of secondary battery are made with sulfur compounds, excellent electrode system of environmental non-toxicity, high specific energy density and low material cost can be obtained. In this study, the $FeS_2$ fine compound powders for active material in the battery were synthesized by mechanical alloying. Fine Fe-53.5 wt.%S powders of 450 nm of mean size were fabricated by mechanical alloying for 60 hours at the horizontal attritor. As the mechanical alloying time increases, particle size of Fe-53.5 wt.%S was decreased and steady state of Fe-53.5 wt.%S compound powders was obtained at 30 hours. Fe-53.5 wt.%S cathode shows the excellent discharge capacity (1011 mAh/g).
