In this study, the application of recovered metals from spent batteries by extraction was investigated for ozone decomposition as a catalyst. Among the recovered metals, Mn contents was the most important factor for ozone decomposition. It was also found that the deactivation rate of the catalyst was dependent on the Zn contents, while K contents and activities were not perfectly correlated for ozone decomposition. In addition, the catalytic activity the $TiO_2$ added catalyst was decreased, due to the reduction of Mn contents. The structural characteristics of maganase oxide was not associated with the catalytic activity for ozone decomposition.

The silica containing carbon ($C-SiO_2$) membranes were fabricated using poly(imide siloxane)(Si-PI) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) blended polymer. The characteristics of porous carbon structures prepared by the pyrolysis of polymer blends were related with the micro-phase separation behaviors of the two polymers. The glass transition temperatures ($T_g$) of the mixed polymer blends of Si-PI and PVP were observed with a single $T_g$ using differential scanning calorimetry. Furthermore, the nitrogen adsorption isotherms of the $C-SiO_2$ membranes were investigated to define the characteristics of porous carbon structures. The $C-SiO_2$ membranes derived from Si-PI/PVP showed the type IV isotherm and possessed the hysteresis loop, which was associated with the mesoporous carbon structures. For the molecular sieving probe, the $C-SiO_2$ membranes were prepared with the ratio of Si-PI/PVP and the pyrolysis conditions, such as the pyrolysis temperature and the isothermal times. Consequently, the $C-SiO_2$ membranes prepared by the pyrolysis of Si-PI/PVP at $550^{\circ}C$ with the isothermal time of 120 min showed the $O_2$ permeability of 820 Barrer ($1{\times}10^{-10}cm^3(STP)cm/cm^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}cmHg$) and $O_2/N_2$ selectivity of 14.

The photocatalytic activity of TiO$_2$ was investigated as a function of added amount of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$, heat treatment temperature and the decomposition rate of 1 mM dichloroacetic acid(DCA). Mixed oxides of TiO$_2$ and Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ was prepared by the sol-gel process. The addition of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ into TiO$_2$ has deleterious effect on the decomposition rate of DCA, which was decreased as the amount of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ was increased. The excess electrons due to the doping of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ into TiO$_2$ can promote the reduction process instead of oxidation or recombination rate with electron holes. The most efficient photocatalyst was the one heat treated at 40$0^{\circ}C$ for an hour as far as the heat treatment temperature is concerned. The lower the pH of the solution, the higher the quantum yield.tum yield.

고집적회로에서 A1 금속공정의 diffusion barrier로 널리 사용되는 titanium nitride의 성질을 조사하였다. 실제 회로 구조의 열적 안정성을 관찰하기 위하여 준비된 TiN/Ti다층 barrier를 $600^{\circ}C$까지 열처리하여 x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy(XTEM) 등으로 분석하였다. 열처리 온도가 증가됨에 따라 oxygen은 TiN 층의 표면과 pure-Ti 층에 pile up 된다. TiN 층의 표면에서는 $600^{\circ}C$열처리시 TiN이 분해되어 완전히 $TiO_2$가 형성되며, TiN 층 내에서는 oxygen 함량은 열처리 온도의 증가에 따라 커지고 이때 형성되는 Ti-oxide는 $TiO_2$ 보다 TiO, $Ti_2$$O_3$ 상태로 존재하게 된다. Pure-Ti 층은 열처리시 두개의 층으로 나누어 지는 데, 표면에서 침투하는 oxygen과 pure-Ti이 반응하여 Ti-oxide 층이 생기며 실리콘 기판과의 반응으로 Ti-silicide를 형성한다. $600^{\circ}C$에서 모든 Ti 층이 반응으로 소모되고 열적 stress, Ti-silicide의 grain growth, oxygen의 침입으로 TiN 층에 blistering이 발생한다.

Perchlorate ion ($ClO_4^-$) has been widely used as oxidizing agent in military weapon system such as rocket and missile fuel propellant. So it has been challenging to remove the pollutant of perchlorate ion. nanoscale zero valence iron (nZVI) particles are widely employing reduction catalyst for decomposition of perchlorate ion. nZVI particles has increasingly been utilized in groundwater purification and waste water treatment. But it have strong tendency of aggregation, rapid sedimentation and limited mobility. In this study, we focused on reduction of perchlorate ion using nZVI particles immobilized in alginate polymer bead for stabilization. The stabilized nZVI particles displayed much greater surface area, and much faster reaction rates of reduction of perchlorate ion. In this study, an efficient way to immobilize nZVI particles in a support material, alginate bead, was developed by using $Ca^{2+}$ as the cross-linking cations. The efficiency and reusability of the immobilized Fe-alginate beads on the reduction of perchlorate was tested at various temperature conditions.

The adsorption and desorption behaviors of NO and $N_2O$ over two mixed oxide catalysts, AlCoPd (1/1/0.05) and AlCoFe (1/1/2), have been investigated for the lean $NO_x$ trap applications. The catalysts showed good adsorption capabilities for NO and $N_2O$ without needing oxidation step. The adsorption decreased a lot when they are co-adsorbed with oxygen. While NO kept high adsorbability and selectivity with respect to oxygen, those of $N_2O$ decreased sharply. From the TPD results, NO and $N_2O$ are considered to decompose into nitrogen and oxygen in the higher temperature range and the oxygen seems to be strongly attached to the catalysts even at high temperature.

Effect of supplementary intranasal midazolam on oral sedation of children The purpose of this study was to compare the cardiopulmonary parameters of two sedation regimens during dental treatment: (1) Oral chloral hydrate(CH) and hydroxyzine(HZ) with nitrous oxide-oxygen($N_2O/O_2$) inhalation(CH-HZ group); (2) Oral chloral hydrate(CH) and hydroxyzine(HZ) with nitrous oxide-oxygen($N_2O/O_2$) inhalation and supplementary intranasal(IN) midazolam administration(MIDA group). Among the patients of OO hospital who received dental treatment under sedation over the past 5 years, 44 patients were selected for each group of CH-HZ and MIDA according to their age, gender and weight. Following parameters that were recorded every 5 minutes were compared: 1) Heart rate(HR) 2) $O_2$ saturation 3) End tidal carbon dioxide concentration($EtCO_2$) 4) Respiratory rate(RR) 33 patients of Group MIDA who have complete data of 15 minutes before and after supplementary IN midazolam administration were selected. And measurements 15 minutes before and after midazolam administration in same patient were evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. Heart rate was significantly higher in MIDA group than in CH-HZ group, but it was within normal range. 2. Comparing HR, $O_2$ saturation, EtCO2, RR between before and after of supplementary IN midazolam administration in the same patient, the differences were not statistically significant.

Flash memory에서 tunnel oxide film은 electron tunnelling 현상을 이용하여 gate에 전하를 전달하는 통로로 사용되고 있다. 특히, tunnel oxide film 내부의 charge trap 현상과 불순물이 소자 특성에 직접적인 영향을 주고 있어, 후속 N2O/NO 열처리 공정에서 SiO2/Si 계면에 nitrogen을 주입하여 tunnel oxide film 특성을 개선하고 있다. 따라서 N2O/NO 열처리 공정 최적화를 위해서는 tunnel oxide film 내 N 농도와 분포에 대한 정확한 평가가 필수적이다[1]. 본 실험에서는 low energy magnetic SIMS를 이용하여 N2O로 열처리된 tunnel oxide film 내의 N농도를 보다 정확하게 평가하고자 하였다. 사용된 시료는 Si substrate에 oxidation 이후 N2O 열처리를 진행하여 tunnel oxide를 형성시켰으며, 분석 impact energy는 surface effect최소화와 최상의 depth resolution 확보를 위해 250eV를 사용하였으며, matrix effect와 mass interference를 방지하기 위해 MCs+ cluster mode[2]로 CsN signal를 검출하였다. 실험 결과, 특정 primary beam 입사각도에서 nitrogen depth resolution 저하 현상이 발생하였고, SIMS crater 표면이 매우 거칠게 나타났다. 이에, Depth resolution 저하 현상을 개선하기 위해 극한의 glancing 입사각 조건으로 secondary extraction voltage 변화를 통해 depth resolution이 개선되는 최적의 impact energy와 primary beam 입사각 조건을 확보하였다. 그 결과 nitrogen의 depth resolution은 1.6nm의 depth resolution을 확보하였으며, 보다 정확한 N 농도와 분포를 평가할 수 있게 되었다.
