The hydrophobic interaction occurring between rhodamine 6G and tetraphenylborate was investigated spectroscopically by varying the medium with the addition of surfactants or ethanol. The ion aggregates formed between the two ions were destroyed by the additives. The dye existed as monomeric species in the presence of a cationic surfactant whereas it was incorporated with anionic and nonionic surfactants. For the complete dissociation more than the critical micelle concentration (cmc) was required with a nonionic surfactant while less than cmc was necessary with the others.

Organic light emitting devices from a single layer thin film with a hole transport polymer, poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) doped with 2-(4-bi phenyl)-5-(4-t-butyl-phenyl) -1,3,4-oxadiazole (Bu-PBD) as electron transporting molecules and Coumurine 6(C6), 1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene (TPB), Rhodamine B as a emitter dye were fabricated. The sing1e layer structure and the use of soluble materials simplify the fabrication of devices by spin coating technique. The active layer consists of one polymer layer that is simply sandwiched between two electrodes, indium-tin oxide (ITO), and aluminum. In this structure, electron and hole inject from the electrodes to the PVK : Bu-PBD active layer. Respectively, Blue, green and orange colored emission spectrum by the use of TPB, C6, Rhodamine B dye emitted at 481nm, 500nm and 585nm were achieved during applied voltages. PVK materials can be useful as the host polymer to be molecularly doped with other organic dyes of the different luminescence colors. And EL color can be tuned to the full visible wavelength.

The performance of a electrocoagulation (EC) process was examined for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB) using iron electrode. The effects of operational parameters such as electrode material (aluminum and iron), current density, NaCl dosage, intial pH and initial dye concentration on RhB removal efficiency were investigated. The optimum range for each of these operating variables were experimentally determined. The experimental results showed that the iron is superior to aluminum as sacrificial electrode material. The optimum time of electrolysis, current density, NaCl dosage and pH were 10 min, 1630 A/$m^2$, 4 g/L and neutral pH, respectively. Under these conditions, RhB was effectively removed (> 93.4%) and also more than 80% of COD was removed (> 88.9%) when the initial concentration of RhB was 230 mg/L. The electrical energy consumption in the above conditions for the color and COD of RhB removal were 10.3 and 10.8 kWh/kg RhB, respectively. The electrocoagulation process could be a promising technology to treat dye wastewater containing RhB.

The feasibility study for the application of the photoelectrocatalytic decolorization of Rhodamine B(RhB) was performed in the slurry photoelectrochemical reactor with powder TiO$_2$. The photoelectrocatalytic process was consisted of powder TiO$_2$, Pt electrode and three 8 W UV-C lamps. The effects of operating conditions, such as current, electrolyte, air flow rate and electrode material were evaluated. The experimental results showed that optimum TiO$_2$ dosage and current in photoelectrocatalytic process were 0.4 g/L and 0.02 A, respectively. It was found that the RhB could be degraded more efficiently by this photoelectrocatalytic process than the sum of the two individual oxidation processes(photocatalytic and electrolytic process). It demonstrated a synergetic effect between the photo- and electrochemical catalysis. Photoelectrocatalytic process was affected to air flow rate and optimum air flow rate was 2 L/min. The electrode material and NaCl effect of decolorization of RhB were not significant within the experiment conditions.

The amplifier properties of single distributed feedback dye laser with 106 ps pulse width and 616 nm wavelength were invested using only one XeCl-excimer laser as pump source. For optimized amplification of DFDL, the three-stage amplifiers were arranged with increasing cross-section and accordingly increasing pump energies. The first AmpI, II stages were dye cell of 5 mm, 10 mm and contained a $6{\times}10^{-4}$ [mol/l](solvent : Methanol) of Rhodamine 610. Double-pass amplification in the AmPII was measured to suppress the ASE by using a diffraction grating. The beam intensity of AmpI, II was saturated with a gain of respectively 10 and 48. The last AmpIII was Bethune cell of 30 mm and contained a $3{\times}10^ {-4}$ [mol/l] (solvent : Ethanol) of Rhodamine 610. In the single-pass and double-pass amplification, the output energy was obtained 168.2 $\mu$J and 471$\mu$J respectively.

Chitin was extracted from crab shell of Portuns triberculatus and deacethylated to yield chitosan with various molecular weights. The absorption and the fluorescence spectra of Rhodamine 6G(Rh 6G)-sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) and Rh 6G-chitosan systems were obtained. From the spectra, we observed that the absorption and the fluorescence intensity of Rh 6G-SDS system decreased when S/D(the concentration of SDS to that of Rh 6G ratio) was below or at 32, while they increased when S/D was above 32. From the suspended solid(SS) removal rate and the transmittance of Rh 6G-SDS-chitosan system, we found that when S/D ratio was 32 its flocculating behaviour was much stronger than Rh 6G-SDS system. As the concentration and the molecular weight of chitosan increased, we also found that S/D range was extended from 32 to 100. With increasing the molecular weight of chitosan, the SS removal rate increased around pH 2~9 but decreased remarkably at pH>12.

The nanofibers fabricated by using an electrohydrodynamic process has been used as various applications, such as nano-device, filtering system, protective clothes, wound dressing, and drug delivery system (DDS). Of these applications, the DDS should be needed to minimize side effects of drugs, maximize the properties of medicine, and efficiently deliver the required amount of drugs to the diseased area. In this paper, by using the electro spinning process, which is one of electrohydrodynamic processes, two different types, polycarprolactone and poly(ethylene oxide)/Rhodamine B, of electrospun mats were fabricated layer by layer and the release behavior of Rhodamine B was characterized with time. In addition, to show the feasibility of DDS of this type, we tested release behavior of a peptide of the nanofiber system, a PCL/(Peptide+PEO)/PCL nanofiber mat. The released peptide did not loss biological activities. From these results, we believe that the layered nanofiber mat as a DDS has enough function of a new drug delivery system.

본 연구에서는 자연하천에서 Rhodamine-WT를 이용하여 추적자 실험을 수행하고 이를 바탕으로 오염사고대응예측모델에 대한 검증을 실시하고자 하였다. 최근 국내에서는 다양한 형태와 규모의 수질오염사고가 매년 수십건 이상 발생하고 있으며, 따라서 수치모형 기반의 수질오염 사고 대응 예측시스템에 대한 높은 신뢰성이 요구되고 있다. 수질사고에 노출되어 있는 지표수를 각종 용수로서 안전하게 공급하기 위해서는 정확한 수질예측이 필수적이며, 이를 위해서 수십 년간 연구되어 온 수질모델을 오염사고 대응예측시스템에 적합하도록 정확성과 신뢰성을 갖추기 위한 연구가 진행되어야 한다. 수치 모형을 이용한 물질의 이송 및 확산 모의에서는 오염물질 도달시간과 확산 농도를 결정하는 것이 가장 중요한 요소이므로 이송 및 확산 모의에 대한 검증 기법 개발 및 적용이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강수계 지류하천인 감천에서 추적자 실험을 4회 실시하여 측정한 수리량과 농도 실측치를 이용하여 분산계수를 종 횡분산계수 산정이 가능한 2차원 유관추적법을 적용하여 산정하였다. 각 단면에 유속은 ADV-3차원 유속계인 Flow-Tracker를 사용하여 도섭으로 측정하였으며 하천의 흐름 방향의 직각으로 측선을 설치하고 펌프를 이용하여 채수를 한 다음 Rhodamie WT의 농도를 측정하였으며 측선의 위치 보정은 GPS를 통하여 보정하였다. 측정 자료를 이용하여 2차원 유관추적법으로 분산계수를 산정한 결과 각각의 측선에 따라서 다소 차이가 발생하였으며, 일부 구간에서는 이론식으로 계산한 분산계수와 근사한 값이 나타났다. 이는 사주가 매우 발달하고 만곡이 많은 실험구간의 특성상 Elder와 Fischer 식으로 계산한 값과 차이가 발생할 가능성이 높은 구간이기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 또한 하폭에 대한 수심비가 커질수록 분산계수도 증가하고 평균유속에 대한 전단유속에 비에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

SnO2 has the wide bandgap which allows it to be used as the photocatalyst. There are many studies to enhance the photocatalytic properties of SnO2. In this study, 3-dimensional SnO2 aerogel was synthesized using epoxide-initiated sol-gel method for the optimal specific surface area. Also, graphene oxide (GO) was added before the gelation process of the aerogel to maximize the specific surface area. Addition of 0.5 wt% of GO would possibly enhance the specific surface area by 1.7 times compared with the bare tin oxide aerogel. Furthermore, enhanced specific surface area could degrade 67.3% of initial Rhodamine B in 120 minutes. To compare with the bare SnO2 aerogel, 0.5 wt% GO addition to SnO2 could double the reaction rate of the photocatalytic degradation.
