실리콘은 광센서, 태양전지, 발광다이오드 등 광소자 응용 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있는 물질이다. 그러나 실리콘의 높은 굴절율(n~3.5)은 표면에서 약 30% 이상의 Fresnel 반사를 발생시켜 소자의 효율을 감소시키는 원인이 된다. 따라서, 반사손실을 줄이기 위해서는 실리콘 표면에 효율적인 무반사 코팅을 필요로 한다. 기존의 단일 혹은 다중 박막을 이용한 무반사 코팅 기술은 물질간 열팽창계수의 불일치, 접착력 문제, 박막 두께 조절 및 적합한 굴절율을 갖는 물질 선택 어려움 등의 단점을 지니고 있다. 최근, 이러한 무반사 코팅 기술의 대안으로 곤충 눈 구조를 모방한 나노크기의 서브파장 격자구조 (subwavelength gratings, SWGs)에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 SWGs 구조는 공기와 반도체 표면 사이에 점진적, 선형적으로 변화하는 유효굴절율을 갖기 때문에, 광대역 파장영역뿐만 아니라 다양한 각도에서 입사하는 빛에 대해서도 효과적으로 Fresnel 표면 반사를 낮출 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 실리콘 기판 표면 위에 효율적인 무반사 특성을 갖는 계층적 SWGs 나노구조를 제작하기 위해, 레이저간섭리소그라피 및 열적응집금속 입자를 이용한 식각 마스크 패터닝 방법과 유도결합플라즈마 식각 공정을 이용하였다. 제작된 무반사 실리콘 SWGs 나노구조의 표면 및 식각 프로파일은 전자주사현미경으로 관찰하였고, 표면 접촉각 측정 장비를 이용하여 샘플 표면의 젖음성을 확인하였다. 제작된 샘플의 광학적 특성을 조사하기 위해 UV-vis-NIR 스펙트로미터와 엘립소미터 측정 시스템들을 이용하였다.

Chronic exposure to solar radiation, particularly ultraviolet (UV) light, causes a variety of adverse reactions on human skin, such as sunburn, photoaging and photocarcinogenesis. Free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by UV exposure or other environmental facts play critical roles in cellular damage. And, repeated-UV irradiation activated the expression of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and induced skin irritation. Therefore, the development of effective and safe photoprotectants that can reduce and improve the skin damage has been required. The purpose of this study was to investigate the photo-protective effect of several chinese medical plants (Juniperus chinensis) on the UV -induced skin cell damages. We tested free radical and superoxide scavenging effect in vitro. Fluorometric assays of the proteolytic activities of MMP-1 (collagenase) were performed using fluorescent collagen substrates. UVA induced MMP-1 synthesis and activity were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and gelatin-based zymography in skin fibroblasts. We also examined anti-inflammatory effects by the determination test of proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin 6 in HaCaT keratinocytes. Expression of prostaglandin E$_2$ (PGE$_2$) after UVB irradiation was measured by competitive enzyme immunoassay(EIA) using PGE$_2$ monoclonal antibody. In the human skin we tested anti-irritation effect on the SLS-induced damage skin after appling the extract containing emulsion. We found that Juniperus chinensis extract had potent radical scavenging effect by 98% at 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. The extract of Juniperus chinensis showed strong inhibitory effect on MMP-1 activities by 97% at 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL and suppressed the UVA induced expression of MMP-1 by 79% at 25$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. This extract also showed strong inhibition on MMP-2 activity in UVA irradiated fibroblast by zymography. In the test of proinflammatory cytokines of human keratinocytes Juniperus chinensis extract decreased expression of interleukin 6 about 30%. The amount of PGE$_2$ by HaCaT keratinocytes was significantly increased at the doses of above 10 mJ/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of UVB (p < 0.05). At the concentrations of 3.2-25$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL of this extract, the production of PGE$_2$ by HaCaT keratinocytes (24 h after 10mJ/$\textrm{cm}^2$ UVB irradiation) was significantly inhibited in culture supernatants (p < 0.05). In SLS-induced skin irritation model in vivo, we found to reduce skin erythema and improve barrier recovery after appling Juniperus chinensis extract containing emulsion when compared to irritated non-treated and placebo-treated skin. Our results suggest that Juniperus chinensis extract can be effectively used for the prevention of UV and SLS-induced adverse skin reactions and applied as anti-aging and anti-irritation cosmetics.

Recently, interests in mask-type skin care devices using light-emitting diodes have been increasing and optical stimuli at certain wavelengths have been known to have various therapeutic effects, such as skin whitening, acne treatment, elasticity and wrinkle improvement by controlling the exposure to wavelengths of light and irradiation time. In particular, light sources of different wavelengths are applied in masks for the purpose of suppressing skin aging, inducing cell proliferation, and alleviating skin inflammation. In this paper, we developed a light-emitting diode control system that is actively used in skin regeneration masks using a microcontroller. Optical stimuli with different manners were applied to skin fibroblast cells in a single or complex wavelengths, and then confirmed how they are effective in the cell differentiation. In addition, we found a specific wavelength that has a positive effect on cell proliferation rates, and confirm the effectiveness of cell proliferation by image processing based quantitative analysis.

The objective of this study was to isolate a photosensitizer from Pueraria thunbergiana leaves that induces apoptosis in SK-HEP-1 cells. Column chromatography and thin layer chromatography were used to isolate active compounds from extracts of P. thunbergiana leaves. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by 1D-NMR, 2D-NMR, and FAB-mass spectroscopy. A substance, named M4-3, was purified from the leaves of P. thunbergiana using various chromatography methods, and the absorbance of the substance was measured. The absorbance was highest at 410 nm, suggesting that the M4-3 substance was a different compound from chlorophyll a and b, which absorb at 410, 502, 533, and 607 nm. Further analyses revealed that the M4-3 compound was a $13^2$-hydoxy pheophorbide, a methyl ester with a molecular weight of 662. M4-3 was identified as a derivative compound of pheophorbide, with a structure that magnesium comes away from the porphyrin ring. The results of the analysis of the cytotoxicity of the M4-3 substance against the SK-HEP-1 cells revealed that it inhibited rates of cell growth by 40% and 80% at a concentration of 0.04 ${\mu}M$ and 0.08 ${\mu}M$, respectively. The M4-3 compound was found to be a photosensitizer for cytotoxicity because it was appeared only in light condition as examining activity in different irradiation conditions (light condition and nonlight condition) under the same concentration. Analysis of morphological changes in the cells following cell death induced by exposure to the M4-3 substance reveled representative phenomena of apoptosis (nuclear condensation, vesicle formation, and fragmentation of DNA). The induction of apoptosis was attributed to the compound's photodynamic activity.

여러 환경정화 방법들 중 광촉매를 이용한 처리기술들이 관심을 모으고 있다. 광에 의해 활성을 갖는 여러 촉매들 가운데 이산화티타늄($TiO_2$)을 중심으로 한 연구가 가장 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 TiO2를 개질화하여 광활성이 우수한 광촉매를 개발하고 이를 이용한 VOC 처리를 목적으로 하고 있다. VOC 중 할로겐화(halogenated)된 것들의 처리는 매우 어려우며 현재의 소각방식으로는 효과적으로 처리되고 있지 않다.

The rate constants for the hydrolysis of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)benzhydrazonyl bromide and its derivatives were determined by ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry at 20$^{\circ}C$ and a rate equation which could be applied over a wide pH range was obtained. On the basis of rate equations derived and judging from the solvent effect, substituent effect, salt effect, thermodynamic parameter, plausible mechanisms of hydrolysis have been proposed. It may be concluded that the hydrolysis through SN1 mechanism via carbonium ion intermdiate to pH 3.0, and pH 10.0, the hydrolysis proceeds through 1,3-dipolar or SN2 mechanism.

This study was conducted to elucidate the effect of light sources and explant types on in vitro shoot multiplication and rooting of a rare and endangered plant Abeliophyllum distichum. Both apical buds and axillary buds were used as explants under 4 different light sources, cool white florescent light (F), 100% blue light-emitting diode (LED) (B), 50% blue and 50% red LED mixture (BR), and 100% red LED (R). Clear difference was observed in terms of shoot proliferation by light sources types but not by position-dependent explant types. Multiple shoot induction rates were enhanced under both B and BR light sources. Spontaneous rooting was induced in shoot induction medium under B light source. Both the rates of rooting and numbers of roots per explant were higher in apical bud explants compared to axillary bud explants. Interestingly R light source stimulated shoot elongation but inhibited root development. Therefore, our results suggest that the use of apical bud explants under B or BR light sources is suitable for in vitro micropropagation of a rare and endangered plant species, Abeliophyllum distichum.
