  • Auto- and photo-oxidative stability of oil extracted from germinated perilla seeds during storage at $60^{\circ}C$ for 4 days was studied by determining peroxide and conjugated dienoic acid values. Tocopherol contents during oil oxidation were also monitored by high performance liquid chromatography. Perilla oil was oxidized and tocopherols were degraded during storage at $60^{\circ}C$ regardless of the presence of light. Light increased oil oxidation and tocopherol degradation. Seeds germinated for 12 h had increased tocopherol contents in the oil and improved the auto- and photo-oxidative stability of the perilla oil. Tocopherol played a more important role as an antioxidant in the presence of light than in the absence of light.

  • The titanium oxide thin films were prepared by anodic oxidation. The Photo-electrochemical properties of the electrodes were studied in 1 M NaOH solution. The flat band potentials of $TiO_2$ electrodes prepared by anodic oxidation showed around -0.8V and the values were shifted 0.2V to the positive potential direction that of single crystal $TiO_2$. Reduction potential of oxygen by cyclic voltammetry showed around -0.95V vs. SCE and these reactions were processed totally irreversible. The photocurrent of electrodes were showed shorter wavelength than that of single crystal $TiO_2$ and its current density decreased.

  • Curcuminoids in turmeric oleoresin (TO) are known to be effective antioxidants; they exhibit photosensitizing properties under light. In this study, the photoreactive properties of TO and its consequent induction of lipid peroxidation and cytotoxicity were evaluated. TO exhibited photosensitizing activities as evidenced by the reduction of nitro blue tetrazolium and by the decolorization of formazan under light, whereas light-irradiated TO did not enhance the levels of reactive oxygen species. The levels of hydroperoxide and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) were significantly elevated under a fluorescent light (10 W/m2) in corn, canola, and soybean oils containing 10-40 and 20-80 ㎍/mL of TO (p<0.05) but not in olive oil. Canola oil was the most sensitive to photo-oxidation induced by TO. The level of TBARS from linoleic acid in the oil in water system was, however, decreased by TO under light. The cytotoxicity effect of TO on melanoma cells was also substantially enhanced under light.

  • Purpose: This study is about photocatalytic technology and plasma oxidation-reduction technology. To the main cause of exposure to odor pollution, two deodorization techniques were applied to develop a module with higher removal efficiency and ozone reduction effect. Research design, data and methodology: A composite module was constructed by arranging two types of dry deodorization equipment (catalyst, adsorbent) in one module. This method was designed to increase the responsiveness to the components of complex odors and the environment. standard, unity, two types of oxidizing photo-catalyst technology and plasma dry deodorization device installed in one module to increase the potential by reduction to 76% of ozone, 100%, and 82%. Results: The complex odor disposal efficiency was 92%. Ammonia was processed with 50% hydrogen sulfide and 100% hydrogen sulfide, and ozone was 0.01ppm, achieving a target value of 0.07ppm or less. The combined odor showed a disposal efficiency of 93%, ammonia was 82% and hydrogen sulfide was 100% processed, and ozone achieved a target value of 0.07 ppm or less. Conclusions: Ozone removal efficiency was 76% by increasing Oxidation-Reduction Reaction(ORR). The H2S removal efficiency of the deodorizer was higher than that of the biofilter system currently used in sewage disposal plants.

  • A photodiode capable of obtaining a sufficient photo/ dark current ratio at both forward bias state and reverse bias state is proposed. The photodiode includes a glass substrate, an aluminum film formed as a lower electrode over the glass substrate, an alumina film formed as an insulator barrier over the aluminum film, a hydrogenated amorphous silicon film formed as a photo conduction layer over a portion of the alumina film, and a transparent conduction film formed as an upper electrode over the hydro-generated amorphous silicon film. A good quality alumina $(Al_2O_3)$ film is formed by oxidation of aluminum film using electrolyte solution of succinic acid. Alumina is used as a potential barrier between amorphous silicon and aluminum. It controls dark-current restriction. In case of photodiodes made by changing the formation condition of alumina, we can obtain a stable dark current $(\~10^{-12}A)$ in alumina thickness below $1000{\AA}$. At the reverse bias state of the negative voltage in ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), the photo current has substantially constant value of $5{\times}10^{-9}$ A at light scan of 100 1x. On the other hand, the photo/dark current ratios become higher at smaller thicknesses of the alumina film. Therefore, the alumina film is used as a thin insulator barrier, which is distinct from the conventional concept of forming the insulator barrier layer near the transparent conduction film. Also, the structure with the insulator thin barrier layer formed near the lower electrode, opposed to the ITO film, solves the interface problem of the ITO film because it provides an improved photo current/dark current ratio.

  • An experiment to find out the removal mechanism of PEG(polyethyleneglycol) by using UV-enhanced $O_2$ GPC (gas phase cleaning) at low substrate temperature below $200^{\circ}C$ was executed under various process conditions, such as substrate temperature, UV exposure, and $O_2$ gas. The possibility of using $UV/O_2$ GPC as a low-temperature in-situ cleaning tool for organic removal was confirmed by the removal of a PEG film with a thickness of about 200 nm within 150 sec at a substrate temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. Synergistic effects by combining photo-dissociation and photo oxidation can only remove the entire PEG film without residues within experimental splits. In $UV/O_2$ GPC with substrate temperatures higher than the glass transition temperature, the substantial increase in the PEG removal rate can be explained by surface-wave formation. The photo-dissociation of PEG film by UV exposure results in the formation of end aldehyde by dissociation of back-bone chain and direct decomposition of light molecules. The role of oxygen is forming peroxide radicals and/or terminating the dis-proportionation reaction by forming peroxide.

  • Polyphenols are chemically unstable, and their bioactivities are reduced through oxidation. Photosensitizers (PS) induce photo-oxidation in various food systems. In this study, effects of dietary PS such as riboflavin (Rb), erythrosin B (EB), and zinc protoporphyrin on the auto-oxidation of polyphenols, gallic acid (GA) and tannic acid (TA) were evaluated under a fluorescent light. The formation of oxidation products from GA and TA increased in a PS concentration- and irradiation time-dependent manner. In addition, Rb and EB induced significant reduction in the polyphenols contents and ABTS radical scavenging activity of GA and TA under light. PS significantly enhanced the amount of reactive oxygen species generated from GA and TA. Therefore, the interaction of polyphenols with PS under light results in acceleration of polyphenol oxidation. This phenomenon should be carefully considered during food processing and storage.

  • Biomolecular photo-damaging activity of a water-soluble cationic porphyrin was examined using human serum albumin (HSA), a water-soluble protein as a target biomolecule model by a fluorometry. Dichlorophosphorus(V) tetraphenylporphyrin ($Cl_2P(V)TPP$), was synthesized and used as a photosensitizer. This porphyrin could bind to HSA and cause the photosensitized oxidation of HSA through the singlet oxygen generation and the oxidative photo-induced electron transfer (ET). Near infrared emission spectroscopy demonstrated the photosensitized singlet oxygen generation by this porphyrin. Decrement of the fluorescence lifetime of $Cl_2P(V)TPP$ by HSA supported the ET mechanism. Furthermore, the estimated Gibb's energy indicated that the ET mechanism is possible in the terms of energy. Because oxygen concentration in cancer cell is relatively low, ET mechanism is considered to be advantageous for photosensitizer of photodynamic therapy.

  • We report a dramatic increase in the photo-stability of a blue-emitting polymer, poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene), achieved by the addition of gold nanoparticles to the polymer. The optical absorption band of gold nanoparticles is tuned to resonate the triplet exciton-ground state band gap energy of the polymer. The photo-oxidation rate of poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) was drastically reduced by doping the polymer with a very small amount ($10^{-6}-10^{-5}$ volume fraction) of gold nanoparticles. The gold nanoparticles used herein act as the quenching agent of the triplet states and can be directly applied to various blue light emitting polymer thin film ( < 100 nm ) devices.
