ZnS thin films were prepared on glass substrate by using chemical bath deposition method. The influence of ammonia ($NH_4OH$) and $Na_2EDTA$ ($Na_2C_{10}H_{16}N_2O_8$) as complexing agents on structural and optical properties of ZnS thin films were investigated. Zinc acetate dihydrate ($Zn(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$) and thiourea ($H_2NCSNH_2$) were used as a starting materials and distilled water was used as a solvent. All ZnS thin films, regardless of a kind of complexing agents, had the hexagonal structure (${\alpha}$-ZnS) and had a preferred <101> orientation. ZnS thin films, with 4 M ammonia and with 4 M ammonia and 0.1 M $Na_2EDTA$, had the highest <101> peak intensity. In addition, their average particle size are 280 nm and 220 nm, respectively. The average optical transmittances of all films were higher than 60% in the visible range. The optical direct band gap values of films were about 3.6~3.8 eV.

In the industry, Zn galvanizing on the steel using the principle of sacrificial anode is used. The steel have some problem, specially corrosion problem. To solve corrosion problem, Zn-Mn alloy plating has been studied as one of the measures to increase the corrosion resistance rather than pure zinc plating. It is possible to be applied to automotive parts requiring high corrosion resistance even though the plating cost is high. In this study, Zn-Mn alloys were electrodeposited from an acidic chloride bath. The influence of the electrolytic conditions on the composition of the alloy plating in the chloride bath was investigated. As the current density of the cathode increases, Zn content of electrodeposit decrease and Mn content of electrodeposit increase. As the temperature of the electrolyte increases, Zn content of electrodeposit decrease and Mn content of electrodeposit increase. The results are explained by the cathode overvoltage curve of Mn and Zn.

The effect of trace metallic additives on microstructure, glossiness and hardness of Zinc electrodeposits was investigated by using sulfate bath and flow cell system. The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives was (10$\ell$)+(002) mixed texture, while that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-Cr additives was ( $10\ell$). The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(X:Ni,Co) additives changed from ($10\ell$)+(002) to ($10\ell$) with increasing Mg additive from 5 to 10 g/$\ell$. The surface morphology of the Zinc deposits was closely related to the preferred orientation of the deposits. The glossiness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives was similar to that of pure Zn deposit. The glossiness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(X:Ni,Cr) additives was lower than that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives, while that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-Co additives was higher than that of Zn-Mg-Fe deposits. The hardness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(Ni,Co,Cr) increased with current density and amount of Mg additive. Hardness of Zn deposits was decreased and increased in comparison with Zn-Mg-Fe deposits for Mg-Fe-Co and Mg-Fe-Cr additives, respectively.

In the international temperature scale of 1990 (ITS-90), standard platinum resistance thermometer (SPRT) is a defining standard thermometer used in the temperature range from 13.8033 K to $961^{\circ}C$. Uncertainty of SPRT is about several mK and uncertainty of defining fixed points of the ITS-90 which is used for calibrating SPRT is about several tenth of mK. Above $0^{\circ}C$. the defining fixed points are gallium melting point and indium, tin, zinc, aluminium and silver freezing points which are all realized using an electric furnace or a liquid bath. To realize freezing point of tin ($231.928^{\circ}C$) and zinc ($419.527^{\cir}C$), two 3-zone furnaces which have 3 electric heaters were manufactured. Temperature gradient of the constructed furnaces were tested. Uncertainty caused by temperature gradient of furnace and immersion effect of SPRT in the sealed-type freezing point cells were evaluated 0.038 mK for tin freezing point and 0.036 mK for zinc freezing point.

Several researches and patents has been published on gathering impurity from both upper and lower places of melting zinc bath and collecting them using melting resolution, but they have never discovered work model applied in the field. This paper proposes an effective extraction algorithm for hazardous work robot that is designed to detect impurity in steel manufacturing process.

The composition and the microstructure of the Zn-Cr alloys electroplated in chloride bath with EDTA were studied according to electrolysis conditions. The cathode current efficiency decreased with increasing both Cr/(Cr+Zn) ratio and current density. The Cr content of the alloy deposits increased with Cr/(Cr+Zn) ratio and current density The phase structure of Zn-Cr alloy deposits changed from η-Zn through η-Zn+${\gamma}$'-ZnCr to ${\gamma}$'-ZnCr with increasing Cr content of alloys. The surface morphology of Zn-Cr alloy deposits changed from fine needle shaped crystallites through the mixed structure of needle-shaped and granular one to the colony structure with fine granular crystallites according to the change of phase structure

The surface appearance of zinc coating chromated electrochemically was investigated with the concentration of impurities in chromating solution. The chromium content and yellowness of chromated film decreased with more than 0.1g/1 Zn in chromating solution, while white ness of it increased slightly. The chromium content and whiteness of chromated film also decreased with more than 0.1g/1 Fe in chromating solution, but the yellowness of it increased. Chromium content, whiteness and yellowness of chromated film decreased slightly with more than 0.5g/1 $Cr^{3+}$<\TEX>. But the chromium content and surface appearance of chromated film are not influenced with less than 1.0g/1 Pb in chromating sloution.

Manganese in the Anode slime and the paste-positive material of waste-dry cell was recovered by leaching with the hydrochloric acid solution. The impurities (Zn, Fe, Pb), co-leached with manganese were removed from the leached solution prior to electrolysis by hydrometallurgical techniques such as the neutralization with ammonium hydroxide and cementation on manganese powder. The electrodeposition of manganese from the purified chloride solution with sodium selenate was performed. Cathode current efficiency was found to be affected significantly by the concentration of sodium selenate and ammonium chloride salt, bath temperate, current density and PH. The current efficiency of about 88.7% was obtained by electrolysis manganese chloride solution with sodium selenate (0.1/g) at 10$^{\circ}C$.

CIGS 박막 태양전지에서 완충층으로 사용되는 ZnS는 단파장 영역에서 높은 투과도와 CIGS 계면과의 좋은 접착을 가지고 친환경적이며 3.74eV의 에너지 밴드갭을 가지고 있기 때문에 CdS를 사용했을 때 보다 더 넓은 에너지 영역의 광자를 p-n 접합 경계 영역으로 통과 시킬 수 있고 Cd-free 물질이라는 점에서 기존의 CdS 완충층의 대체 물질로 각광 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CIGS 박막에 화학습식공정 방법을 이용하여 최적화된 ZnS 박막의 증착 조건을 찾기 위해 실험 변수인 시약의 농도, 실험온도, 열처리 조건 등의 다양한 변화를 통해 실험을 진행하였고, 박막의 갈라짐과 pin-hole 현상을 개선하고 균일한 막을 제조하기 위해 구연산 나트륨 농도에 따른 ZnS 박막의 특성을 연구하였다. 본 실험 결과로서 실험변수인 황산아연의 농도 0.15M, 암모니아는 0.3M, 티오요소 1M, 공정 온도 $80^{\circ}C$의 최적화 된 조건에서 가장 좋은 품질의 ZnS 박막을 제조하였지만, ZnS 박막의 열처리 후 산소의 양이 줄어감에 따라 박막의 표면이 갈라지고 pin-hole 현상이 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 박막의 품질을 개선하기 위해 구연산 나트륨을 첨가하여 실험한 결과 구연산 나트륨의 0.05M의 농도에서는 박막 표면에 90nm의 갈라짐의 크기와 pin-hole 현상이 남아있는 것을 확인하였고, 농도가 높아질수록 점차 크기가 줄어들면서 0.4M에서는 갈라짐이 거의 없는 표면과 pin-hole 현상도 없어지는 것을 확인하였고, 약 144nm의 박막 두께와 3.8eV의 에너지 밴드갭을 가지고, 약 81%의 높은 광투과율을 갖는 고품질의 ZnS 박막을 제작할 수 있었다.

The ZnSe sample grown by chemical bath deposition (CBD) method were annealed in Ar gas at 450$^{\circ}C$ Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction pattern, it was found to have zinc blend structure whose lattice parameter a$\_$o/ was 5.6687 ${\AA}$. From Hall effect, the mobility was likely to be decreased by impurity scattering at temperature range from 10 K to 150 K and by lattice scattering at temperature range from 150 K to 29 3K. The band gap given by the transmission edge changed from 2.7005 eV at 293 K to 2.8739 eV at 10 K. Comparing photocurrent peak position with transmission edge, we could find that photocurrent peaks due to excition electrons from valence band, $\Gamma$$\_$8/ and $\Gamma$$\_$7/ to conduction band $\Gamma$$\_$6/ were observed at photocurrent spectrum. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light on the ZnSe thin film, we have found that values of spin orbit coupling splitting Δso is 0.0981 eV. From the PL spectra at 10 K, the peaks corresponding to free bound excitons and D-A pair and a broad emission band due to SA is identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.0612 eV and the dissipation energy of the donor -bound exciton and acceptor-bound exciton to be 0.0172 eV, 0.0310 eV, respectively.
