films of gold nanoparticles were formed on indium tin oxide (ITO) by an electrodeposition method from an aminosilicate stabilized gold colloid solution. The thin films were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). The surface coverage of gold nanoparticles on the thin film was estimated to 1.2 nanomole/cm2. An anthraquinone-2, 6-disulfonic acid, disodium salt (AQDS) self-assembled layer was generated by immersing gold thin film into 1mM of AQDS in 0.1M HClO4 solution for over 20 hours. As a result, a new absorbance peak from the multi-layers (AQDS/thin film of gold /ITO) was obtained about at 690 nm. Also, the surface plasmon absorption of multi-layers was measured by UV-Visible spectrometer along with chronoamperometry by applying the various potentials from +0.5V to -0.5V. The maximum surface plasmon absorption band at 550 nm was decreased by applying negative potentials. The change of absorbance was correlated with the surface coverage of the AQDS indicating the pseudo-capacity surface state of the AQDS layer was coupled to the energy level of the plasmonband by applied negative potentials.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different light emitting diode (LED) irradiation on the growth of paprika (Capsicum annuum 'Cupra'). The plants were irradiated by red (660 nm), blue (460 nm) and red + blue (4 : 1) light emitting diodes above 50 cm for 5 hours after sunset. Photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) irradiated by red, blue and red + blue LED were $79{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, $75{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ and $102{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ respectively. Leaf temperature of paprika grown under blue LED irradiation was the highest of $18.6^{\circ}C$. Fruit temperature was the highest under in the control (no irradiation) but it was lower than leaf temperature. There was influence of LED irradiation on the paprika plants height; under blue irradiation the plant height was the shortest, while under in the control plant height was the highest. The leaf size of under different LED irradiation was bigger than that of in the control. Mean fruit weight under different LED irradiation was significantly increased; however number of fruits and marketable yield per plant were significantly decreased as compared to the control.

The $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was synthesized by the hot-injection method while varying the injection time of the precursor solution. The crystal structure was determined to be cubic inverse spinel with space group of Fd-3m based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements and the morphology of the prepared $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was studied with a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). When the precursor solution was injected for 0.5 min, the size of the $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was 7.63 nm, while the size of the obtained particle was 21.27 nm with the injection time of 60 min. The magnetic properties of the prepared $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle were investigated by both vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and $^{57}Co$ M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy at various temperatures. From the hyperthermia measurement, we observed that the temperature of the $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle powder reached around $120^{\circ}C$ under 250 Oe at 50 kHz, when the injection time of the precursor solution was 60 min.

Detection method was developed using a simply designed photochemical reactor made of teflon coil and low pressure mercury lamp. This method of UV photolysis of analytes followed by UV, fluorescence and electrochemical detection was found to be useful for four thiocarbamates. Analytes eluting from the column are irradiated with a high flux of 254 nm UV light, so that they change to either fluorescent active forms or highly electrochemically sensitive products. Appling this technique to the UV detection, thiocarbamates were converted into long wavelength absorbing products upon UV irradiation. In fluorescence detector four thiocarbamates are not detected at nonirradiated condition but fluorescence signals of MPTC, CPTC photolysates are appeared after irradiation with UV light. The electrochemical detection for the determination of thiocarbamates was enhanced up to 5∼20 fold signal after UV irradiation, compared to that of the nonirradiated. The detection limit of thiocarbamates on electrochemical detector was 13.3∼0.02 ng under pH 7.0, ionic strength $0.5{\times}10^{-2}$ M, phosphate buffer solution. Adducts produced by reaction of photolysates and OPA-MERC in the reaction coil were monitored at 425 nm with fluorescence detector, and one of the photolysates was primary amine.

Silica sol was prepared from the mixture of sodium silicate solution and oxidized silicate solution in which sodium had been removed by sol-gel process. The properties of sodium silicate solution and silicate solution thus prepared were characterized by yellow silicomolydate method. Moreover, the formation and growth of silica sol from sodium silicate solution was investigated. Sodium silicate solution with 2% of $SiO_2$ contains 95% of reactive silicate, and 50% of reactive silicate participates sol-gel reaction. From the results of FT-IR analysis, it was found that the intensity of silanol bond decreased and the intensity of siloxane bond increased with increasing reaction temperature. Zeta potential of silica sol prepared at each condition was -40~-60 mV and it could be known that silica sol in this study was well dispersed. The silica sol with 5~10 nm size could be prepared by heating the mixed solution of sodium silicate and silicate solution. And the silica sol grew into about 20 nm as silicate solution was added to silica sol solution.

This work investigates the size and dispersion characteristics of silver nanoparticles synthesized by a liquid phase reduction method using PAA. The experimental variables were the molecular weight and doses of the PAA, reducing agent, dispersant, and organic solvent (ethanol-acetone). UV-visible spectrophotometer results confirm the formation of the silver particles, and SEM indicates size in the nanometer range. As the ultrasonication time increases, there is a tendency toward smaller agglomerates of nanoparticles. The agglomerates were dispersed into 1-5 agglomerates of particles by ultrasonication for 3 hours or more. Relatively spherical nanoparticles were produced with a completely homogeneous dispersion and size of 49.56-85.75 nm by ultrasonication using BYK-192, a dispersant containing copolymer with a pigment affinic group. The average size of the silver nanoparticles was increased to 36.82, 50.66, and 56.06 nm with increasing molecular weight of PAA. Also, the size of the nanoparticles increased with the capping of PAA on the surfaces of the nanoparticles when increasing the amount of PAA. The addition of hydrazine as a reducing agent produced relatively small particles because many nuclei were created by the reduction reaction. The ethanol-acetone solvent helped with the regular arrangement of the silver nanoparticles.

In this study, after 20nm-thick $SiO_2$ thin film was deposited by PECVD method on the PES substrate, which is known to have the highest heat resistance among plastic substrates, as a buffer layer, ITZO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering method to investigate the electrical and optical properties according to the working pressure. The ITZO thin film deposited at the working pressure of 3mTorr showed the best electrical properties with a resistivity of $8.02{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$ and a sheet resistance of $50.13{\Omega}/sq.$. The average transmittance in the visible region (400-800nm) of all ITZO films was over 80% regardless of working pressure. The Figure of merit showed the largest value of $23.90{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}^{-1}$ in the ITZO thin film deposited at 3mTorr. This study found that ITZO thin films are very promising materials to replace ITO thin films in next-generation flexible display devices.

When the surfactant is dissolved in an aqueous solution, it forms aggregate called micelles (<20 nm) in the solution, and micelles can form the solubilized formulation by supporting the active ingredient therein. Swollen micelles are formulations capable of carrying larger amounts of active ingredient than conventional solubilized formulations at 50~100 nm. Unlike liposomes or nanoemulsions, which require a separate process such as high pressure emulsification, Swollen micelle is a more efficient method of solubilization and particle formation from a productive point of view. In this study, stabilization experiments on swollen micelle formulations were carried out using poloxamer 407, and then optimized formulation experiments for tocopheryl acetate components were performed using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Tocopheryl acetate, a surfactant that affects solubilization and an active substance, were set as a factor and the correlation between them was confirmed. As the evaluation method, stability and particle size distribution and size were confirmed by temperature and time, and the structure and shape of the swollen micelle carrying the active ingredient were confirmed by FIB. These results show that poloxamer 407 0.500%, octyldodeceth-16 0.387% and tocopheryl acetate 0.945% are the most optimized prescriptions for swollen micelle stabilized with tocopheryl acetate.

For the selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia (NH₃-SCR), a V₂O₅WO₃/TiO₂ (VW/nTi) catalyst was prepared using V₂O₅ and WO₃ on a nanodispersed TiO₂ (nTi) support by simple impregnation process. The nTi support was dispersed for 0~3 hrs under controlled bead-milling in ethanol. The average particle size (D₅₀) of nTi was reduced from 582 nm to 93 nm depending on the milling time. The NOx activity of these catalysts with maximum temperature shift was influenced by the dispersion of the TiO₂. For the V_0.5W₂/nTi-0h catalyst, prepared with 582 nm nTi-0h before milling, the decomposition temperature with over 94 % NOx conversion had a narrow temperature window, within the range of 365-391 ℃. Similarly, the V_0.5W₂/nTi-2h catalyst, prepared with 107 nm nTi-2h bead-milled for 2hrs, showed a broad temperature window in the range of 358~450 ℃. However, the V_0.5W₂/Ti catalyst (D₅₀ = 2.4 ㎛, aqueous, without milling) was observed at 325-385 ℃. Our results could pave the way for the production of effective NOx decomposition catalysts with a higher temperature range. This approach is also better at facilitating the dispersion on the support material. NH₃-TPD, H₂-TPR, FT-IR, and XPS were used to investigate the role of nTi in the DeNOx catalyst.
