ZnS 화합물은 근자외선 영역의 직접천이형 띠 간격을 갖으며 청색 발광 다이오드나 레이저의 소재로 기대되는 물질이다. 결정구조는 X선 회절무늬를 분석한 결과 zinc blonde구조임을 알 수 있었다. 격자상수는 $a_o=5.411{\AA}$이었다. ZnS단결정의 광학적 흡수, 광전류와 광발광 스펙트럼 등 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 광학적 띠간격 에너지는 3.61eV이었고 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 ZnS의 띠 간격 에너지는 광전류 측정 결과 as-grown-ZnS에 비하여 0.1eV 정도 작아짐을 알 수 었었다. 광발광 스펙트럼은 30K에서 293K까지 as-grown-ZnS와 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 경우에 대하여 각각 측정되었다. As-grown ZnS단결정의 광발광 피크는 350nm, 392nm, 465nm에서 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 경우 349nm, 370nm, 394nm 518nm, 572nm에서 각각 측정되었다.

Single-phased SnS thin films have been prepared by RF magnetron sputtering at various deposition pressures. The effect of deposition pressure on the structural and optical properties of polycrystalline SnS thin films was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectrophotometer. The XRD analysis revealed the orthorhombic structure of the SnS thin films oriented along the (111) plane direction. As the deposition pressure was increased from 5 mTorr to 15 mTorr, the intensity of the peak on the (111) plane increased, and the intensity decreased under the condition of 20 mTorr. The binding energy difference at the Sn 3d_5/2 and S 2p_3/2 core levels was about 324.5 eV, indicating that the SnS thin film was prepared as a pure Sn-S phase. The optical properties of the SnS thin films indicate the presence of direct allowed transitions with corresponding energy band gap in the rang 1.47-1.57 eV.

A few high-mass X-ray binaries-consisting of an OB star plus compact companion-have been observed by Fermi and ground-based Cerenkov telescopes like High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) to be sources of very high energy (VHE; up to 30 TeV) ${\gamma}$-rays. This paper focuses on the prominent ${\gamma}$-ray source, LS 5039, which consists of a massive O6.5V star in a 3.9-day-period, mildly elliptical ($e{\approx}0.24$) orbit with its companion, assumed here to be an unmagnetized compact object (e.g., black hole). Using three dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations of the Bondi-Hoyle accretion of the O-star wind onto the companion, we find that the orbital phase variation of the accretion follows very closely the simple Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton (BHL) rate for the local radius and wind speed. Moreover, a simple model, wherein intrinsic emission of ${\gamma}$-rays is assumed to track this accretion rate, reproduces quite well Fermi observations of the phase variation of ${\gamma}$-rays in the energy range 0.1-10 GeV. However for the VHE (0.1-30 TeV) radiation observed by the HESS Cerenkov telescope, it is important to account also for photon-photon interactions between the ${\gamma}$-rays and the stellar optical/UV radiation, which effectively attenuates much of the strong emission near periastron. When this is included, we find that this simple BHL accretion model also quite naturally fits the HESS light curve, thus making it a strong alternative to the pulsar-wind-shock models commonly invoked to explain such VHE ${\gamma}$-ray emission in massive-star binaries.

본 논문에서는 투명 전극용 ITO(Indium Tin Oxide) 박막의 성막 조건을 알아내기 위하여 DC(Direct Current) 마그네트론 스퍼터를 사용해 증착된 ITO 박막의 특성을 분석하였다. 실험 조건은 1~3[mTorr] 분위기압으로 조절하고 인가전압은 260~330[V]로 10[V]씩 스텝을 주어 실험을 진행하였다. 증착된 박막의 투과율, 굴절률 및 표면과 단면 형상을 자외선-가시광선 분광광도계, 타원편광분석기와 주사전자현미경으로 측정하였다. ITO 성막 조건 1~2[mTorr] 분위기압에서 300[V] 정도의 전압이 투과율이 90[%] 이상으로 우수하고 굴절률이 2이상 이였다. 따라서 높은 투명 전도성 전극을 만들기에 적절한 조건임을 확인하였다.

Recently, numerous studies have utilized graphene in biomedical applications such as drug delivery, cancer therapy, and bioimaging. In this study, graphene was eco-friendly prepared by liquid phase exfoliation of graphite using plant extracts in water. Initially, 12 different plants or plant parts were screened for the characteristic graphene peak at near 268 nm using UV-Vis spectrophotometric analyses. The ability to form stable black graphene dispersion was highest using Xanthium strumarium extract. Transmission electron microscopy images showed that about 5 layer-graphene was produced from 1 g/L of graphite, while more than 5 layers were formed from 2 g/L of graphite. The optimum X. strumarium concentration for graphene production was 2 g/100 mL.

The Kwinana Shoreline Fumigation Experiment (KSFE) took place at Fremantle, WA, Australia between January 23 and February 8, 1995. The CSIRO DAR LIDAR measured plume sections from near the Kwinana Power Station (KPS) stacks to up to about 5 km downstream. It also measured boundary layer aerosols and the structure of the boundary layer on some occasions. Both stages A and C of KPS were used as tracers at different times. The heart of the LIDAR system is a Neodymium-doped Yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser operating at a fundamental wavelength of 1064 nm, with harmonics of 532 nm and 355 nm. For these experiments the third harmonic was used because the UV wavelength at 355 nm is eye safe beyond about 50 m. The laser fires a pulse of light 6 ns in duration (about 1.8 m long) and with an energy (at the third harmonic) of about 70 mJ. This pulse subsequently scattered and absorbed by both air molecules and particles in the atmosphere. A small fraction of the laser beam is scattered back to the LIDAR, collected by a telescope and detected by a photo-multiplier tube. The intensity of the signal as a function of time is a measure of the particle concentration as a function of distance along the line of the laser shot. The smoke plume was clearly identifiable in the scans both before and after fumigation in the thermal internal boundary layer (TIBL). Both power station plumes were detected. Over the 9 days of operation, 1,568 plumes scans (214 series) were performed. Essentially all of these will provide instantaneous plume heights and widths, and there are many periods of continuous operation over several hours when it should be possible to compile hourly average plume statistics as well. The results of four days LIDAR observations of the dispersion of smoke plume in the TIBL at a coastal site are presented for the case of stages A and C.

Label-free biomolecular assay based localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of noble metal nanoparticles enables simple and rapid detection with the use of simple equipment. Nanosized metal nanoparticles exhibit a strong absorption band when the incident light frequency is resonant with the collective oscillation of the electrons, which is known as the LSPR. Here we demonstrate localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) substrates such as plasmonic Au nanodisks fabricated by a nanoimprinting process and gold nanorod-immobilized surfaces and their applications to highly sensitive and/or label-free biosensing. To increase detection sensitivity various bioreceptors weree designed. A single chain variable fragment (scFv) was used as a receptor to bind C-reactive protein (CRP). The results of this effort showed that CRP in human serum could be quantitatively detected lower than 1 ng/ml. Aptamers, which were immobilized on gold nanorods, were used to detect mycotoxins. The specific binding of ochratoxin A (OTA) to the aptamer was monitored by the longitudinal wavelength shift of LSPR peak in the UV-Vis spectra resulting from the changes of local refractive index near the GNR surface induced by accumulation of OTA and G-quadruplex structure formation of the aptamer. According to our results, OTA could be quantitatively detected lower than 1 nM level. Additionally, aptamer-functionalized GNR substrate was quite robust and can be regenerated many times by rinsing at 70 OC to remove bound target. During seven times of washing steps, the developed OTA sensing system could be reusable. Moreover, the proposed biosensor exhibited selectivity over other mycotoxins with an excellent recovery for detection in grinded corn samples, suggesting that the proposed LSPR based aptasensor plays an important role in label-free detection of mycotoxins.

SnS thin films with different substrate temperatures ($150 {\sim}300^{\circ}C$) as process parameters were grown on soda-lime glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering. The effects of substrate temperature on the structural and optical properties of SnS thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy (Raman), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Ultraviolet-visible-near infrared spectrophotometer (UV-Vis-NIR). All of the SnS thin films prepared at various substrate temperatures were polycrystalline orthorhombic structures with (111) planes preferentially oriented. The diffraction intensity of the (111) plane and the crystallite size were improved with increasing substrate temperature. The three major peaks (189, 222, $289cm^{-1}$) identified in Raman were exactly the same as the Raman spectra of monocrystalline SnS. From the XRD and Raman results, it was confirmed that all of the SnS thin films were formed into a single SnS phase without impurity phases such as $SnS_2$ and $Sn_2S_3$. In the optical transmittance spectrum, the critical wavelength of the absorption edge shifted to the long wavelength region as the substrate temperature increased. The optical bandgap was 1.67 eV at the substrate temperature of $150^{\circ}C$, 1.57 eV at $200^{\circ}C$, 1.50 eV at $250^{\circ}C$, and 1.44 eV at $300^{\circ}C$.

박막형태로 제작이 가능한 비정질 실리콘은 결정질 실리콘에 비하여 AM-1 (Air Mass 1:100mW/cm2)조건하에서 10-3 S/cm 정도의 높은 광전기전도도와 가시광선 영역($4000{\sim}7000{\AA}$)에서 약 10배의 높은 광흡수계수를 가지며, $300^{\circ}C$ 이하의 낮은 기판온도에서 다양한 기판위에 대면적으로 제작이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 제작공정이 단순하여 제작비용이 저렴하다는 이점이 있다. 본 실험에서 제작된 모든 박막은 PECVD로 증착하였으며 구조는 p-i-n superstrate형 구조를 사용하였고, 각 박막의 두께는 p-a-Si:H/i-a-SiGe:H/n-a-Si:H ($300{\AA}/2000{\AA}/600{\AA}$)으로 고정하였다. a-Si:H (hydrogenated amorphous silicon) 태양전지의 광 흡수층인 i-layer에서의 germane 가스 유량 변화(0, 20, 40. 60, 80, 100 sccm)에 대한 흡수율의 차이를 UV/Vis/Nir spectrophotometer (ultraviolet/visible/near infrared spectrophotometer)를 통해 확인하고, 그에 따른 a-Si:H 박막 태양전지를 제작하여 solar simulator를 사용하여 AM 1.5 G의 환경 조건에서 태양전지 특성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 germane 가스 유량이 증가함에 따라 파장에 대한 absorptance (a.u.)값이 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 흡수되는 파장영역의 범위가 장파장으로 확대됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 germane 가스 유량이 60 sccm 일때 a-SiGe:H 박막 태양전지 변환효율이 3.80%로 최대값을 가졌다. 실험에서 germane 가스 유량이 증가할수록 흡수율이 높아져 태양전지특성이 향상될 거라 예상 했지만, 100 sccm보다 60 sccm일 때가 단락전류밀도 값과 변환효율이 높다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 각 layer사이에 계면상의 문제가 있을 거라 예상되며 직렬저항측정을 통해 확인할 수 있다.
