음극에 DLC 필름이 놓여져 있는 용량결합형의 RF 플라즈마 장치에서 Ar가스에 의한 방전에서 발생된 입자의 분포를 레이져 산란에 의하여 관측하였다. 발생된 입자들은 플라즈마와 sheath의 경계면 에서 높은 밀도의 구름을 이루었으며 시간에 따라 주기적인 분포의 변화가 반복되었다, 입자 구름의 발 생은 플라즈마 물성의 변화를 야기하였으며 그 결과로 심한 self-bias 전위의 감소현상이 관측되었다. 입자 구름분포의 시간에 따른 변화와 같은 주기의 self-bias 플라즈마전위의 진동현상이 가열된 fast-scanning langmuir 탐침에 의하여 관측되었다. 이결과는 입자 표면에로의 음전하 누적에 따른 전체 음전하의 이동도 감소에 의한 것으로 해석된다. 또한 방출 분광법에 의하여 입자오염상태의 Ar 플라즈 마와 정상상태의 Ar 플라즈마의 방출 선세기의 변화를 관측하였는데 입자구름 오염시의 2차전자 차폐 현상에 의해 높은 문턱 에너지를 가진 Ar II 선의 세기 감소현상이 나타났다.

Reactive sprays of two propellant combinations(GOx/kerosene and $GN_2O$/ethanol) were observed and compared with each other as a basic research of visualizing supercritical combustion. A shadowgraph imaging method was used to visualize the reactive sprays, and shadowgraph images were converted to density gradient magnitude images to analyse the structure of reactive sprays. The gas-liquid interface of GOx/kerosene spray showed rougher boundary and steeper density gradient near the injector face than the $N_2O$/ethanol at similar combustion chamber pressure. Spray core length was calculated from averaged density gradient magnitude images and it was revealed that spray core length of GOx/kerosene was shorter than that of $GN_2O$/ethanol, although momentum flux ratio of GOx/kerosene propellant combination was lower.

In this study, we have prepared plastic lenses with both photochromic and hard properties by hard coating, and evaluated their optical properties and surface characteristics. Photochromic effects could be observed on the UV spectra of the closed forms and the visible spectra of the open forms. Visible light transmittance of photochromic lenses was from 83.44% for graphite(GP) to 85.15% for blue(BL) in colourless state and from 71.10% for red(RE) to 79.98% for yellow(YE) in colour state. Red photochromic lens was higher in optical density(${\Delta}$OD) and color difference(${\Delta}$$E^{\ast}_\;{ab}$) than the others. Photochromic lenses applied by hard coating showed good adhesion, hot water resistance, chemical resistance and surface appearance. Also, compared to the uncoated lens, hardness and abrasion resistance were increased. Consequently, this coating system could impart functional properties such as photochromic and hard coating property onto ophthalmic lenses.

반전형 폴리머 태양전지는 그 구조에 의하여 훌륭한 안정성을 가질 뿐만 아니라 roll-to-roll 공정을 통한 대량생산이 가능하여 각광받고 있는 구조이다. 이런 반전형 구조에서, 금속 산화물 나노파티클에 의해 만들어지는 금속 산화물 층은 전자수송층으로서 사용된다. 이 연구에서는 표면개질 물질인 PEIE (Polyethyleneimine-ethoxylate)와 화학적으로 기능화된 산화아연/그래핀 핵/껍질 양자점을 이용하여 전기수송층의 역할을 하는 기능화된 산화아연/그래핀 단분자층을 가지는 태양전지를 제작하였다. 이는 기능화된 산화아연/그래핀 단분자층이 표면개질, 광센서, 전기수송층의 역할을 동시에 수행하는 효과로 인해 제작된 태양전지는 향상된 전자 수집능력을 보였다. 단분자층이 잘 형성되어 있는지 확인하기 위하여 집속 이온 빔 장비를 이용하여 태양전지의 내부 구조를 확인하였으며, density functional theory (DFT)을 이용한 모델링을 통하여 기능화된 산화아연/그래핀 양자점의 전자상태밀도를 분석하였다. 기능화된 산화아연 단분자층에 의한 효과적인 계면 제어 및 전하수송에 의해 약 10.3%의 높은 효율을 가지는 반전형 폴리머 태양전지를 제작할 수 있었다.

DLC(Diamond Like Carbon) 박막은 높은 경도, 낮은 마찰계수, 내화학성 등의 우수한 트라이볼로지적 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 다양한 산업분야에서 적용되고 있다. 이러한 DLC 박막은 합성기구나 구조의 관점에서 몇 가지 다른 이름으로 불려지기도 한다. 밀도와 경도가 높기 때문에 경질탄소(Hard Carbon)라고도 불려지며, 수소를 함유한 경우에는 수소함유 비정질 탄소(Hydrogenated Amorphous Carbon)이라는 이름이 사용되며, 고밀도 탄소(Dense Carbon) 또는 고밀도 탄화수소(Dense Hydrocarbon)라고 불리기도 한다. 이렇듯 DLC 박막은 합성방법에 따라 함유된 수소와 탄소의 결합구조의 차이가 있다. 수소 함유한 DLC 박막은 20~50%까지 수소를 함유하며, DLC막의 기계적, 광학적, 전기적 특성들이 수소함량과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 함유된 수소가 $300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 쉽게 결합에서 이탈되면서 흑연화와 더불어 마찰마모시 코팅층의 파손이 발생한다고 보고되고 있고, 또한 수소량이 증가함에 따라 DLC 박막의 경도는 감소하게 되는데, 이는 수소에 의해 dangling bond가 Passivation되면 탄화수소의 3차원적인 Crosslinking은 그만큼 감소하게 되기 때문이라고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 PECVD를 이용하여 여러 가지 공정에 따른 DLC 박막을 증착시켰으며, 수소함유량에 따른 DLC막의 구조와 그에 따른 경도 변화를 살펴보았다. FTIR(Furier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy)과 Raman Spectroscopy을 이용하여 DLC막의 수소의 결합상태를 관찰하였으며, Nano Indentation을 사용하여 미소경도를 측정하였고, FE-SEM을 이용하여 표면과 단면을 관찰하였다. 막의 두께 측정에는 ${\alpha}$-Step을 사용하였으며, Ball-on-Disk 타입의 Tribo-meter을 이용하여, 모재의 경도에 따른 마찰계수 변화를 관찰하였다.

The passivation of n-GaAs(100) surface has investigated by photoreflectance(PR). The surface of the sample was treated with the 0.001 N solution Se/NH$_4$OH. After the surface treatment, the samples were annealed between 400 to $700^{\circ}C$ in a $N_2$atmosphere for 10 min. The intensity of PR signal and period of Franz-Deldysh oscillation(FKO) gradually decreased as the annealing temperature increased. The surface electric field(E$_{s}$) of the sample annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ is obtained 1.34$\times$10$^{5}$ V/cm. This value is 1.97 times less than that of unannealed sample. It has found that the passivation of surface occurred when the surface of the sample had been treated with Se/NH$_4$OH solution and annealed from 500 to $600^{\circ}C$. This result could be due to activation of elemental Se on the surface. It has also found that the elemental Se of the surface diffused about 100 $\AA$ into the bulk GaAs when Se-treated sample was annealed at $600^{\circ}C$.>.

We investigated chemical states of a $Sb_2Te_3$ thin film with the polycrystalline phase by using high-resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation. The $Sb_2Te_3$ thin film was formed by sputtering. The rhombohedral phase was confirmed by x-ray diffraction. To remove the surface oxide, we performed $Ne^+$ ion sputtering for 1 hour with the beam energy of 1 kV and post-annealing at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 min in ultra-high vacuum. We obtained the Te and Sb 4d core-levels spectra with the peaks at the binding energies of 40.4 and 33.0 eV, respectively. The full-width of half maximum of both the Te and Sb $4d_{5/2}$ core-levels is 0.9 eV. The Te and Sb core-levels only show a single chemical state, and we also confirmed the stoichiometry of approximately 2 : 3.

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate high school students' conceptual understanding of density for solids and liquids in pure and mixed substances who had preceded formal school science instruction on density and related topics. A concept assessment on density was developed and administered by demonstrative experiments accompanied by a written assessment test method to 120 general high school students in a metropolitan city. The scientific conceptions and alternative conceptions from students' responses were identified and the percentages of them were calculated. Then, their alternative conceptions and implicit theories on density were analyzed. About half of the students couldn't differentiate weight-volume-density and regarded density as an innate property of matter. Furthermore, the greater the number of variables involved in an experimental condition of the question, the more complicated and undifferentiated students' density concepts were. Students employed more improper variables such as particle size, intermolecular distance, surface tension, polarity of the solvent, etc. in explaining counter-intuitive observations. The implications for school science instruction were discussed.

A terahertz asymmetric split-loop resonator (ASLR) was analyzed for use in high-sensitivity sensing applications. Its structural asymmetricity induces an asymmetric Fano resonance which has a high quality factor compared to the symmetric eigen-resonance. The variations of the resonant frequency, transmission coefficient, and quality factor of the ASLR in the eigen and Fano resonances are analyzed as a function of its structural asymmetricity. Also, the surface current densities on the ASLR in both resonances are calculated to analyze the main cause of the variations of its transmission characteristics. The surface current of the ASLR in the eigen resonance shows a dipole resonance, which increases the radiation loss and reduces the quality factor. On the other hand, the surface current of the ASLR in the Fano resonance shows a trapped or quadrupole mode which has a low radiation loss. Therefore, the ASLR operated in the Fano resonance has a high quality factor. Terahertz, high-performance filters and high sensitivity sensors can be developed based on our analysis results of the ASLR having a high quality factor. These high-performance devices based on terahertz metamaterials could increase the adoption of terahertz industrial applications.

In the initial stages of oxidation of Si(111)-7${\times}$7 held at 40K through exposing molecular oxygen, it has been detected average work-function measured by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) is about 0.4eV higher than the local work-function of the modified area measured by photoemission for adsorbed Xenon (PAX). This result indicates that the increment of work-function at the initial oxidation stages of Si(111)-7${\times}$7 is mainly due to the moleculary adsorbed oxygen. From the shift of broadened Xe 5p and Xe 3d, it has also been estimated that the work-function of the modified area is 0.6eV higher than that of the clean area.
