폐 PCBs의 스크랩으로부터 염소-차아염소산염 용액을 이용하여 Au와 Ag를 친환경적이고 효과적으로 용출시키고자 하였다. PCBs에 Cu, Sn, Sb, Al, Ni, Pb, Au 등과 같은 유용금속이 함유되어 있는 것을 EDS 분석으로 확인하였다. 최대 Au 용출율은 1%의 광액농도, 2:1의 염산:차아염소산나트륨 그리고 2 M의 NaCl 농도조건이다. Au 회수율이 가장 높은 메타중아황산나트륨 농도는 3 M에서였다. 염소-차아염소산염이 폐 컴퓨터에 함유되어 있는 Au와 Ag를 효과적으로 용출시킬 수 있는 용매제 임을 그리고 메타중아황산나트륨이 Au를 간단하게 침전시킬 수 있는 첨가제임을 확인하였다.

전기화학적인 방법으로 나노구조를 지니는 금 표면을 형성하는 방법에 관한 연구는 최근 많은 연구자들의 관심을 끌고 있다. 첨가된 금 전구체를 전기화학 석출에 의해 나노구조 금 표면을 형성하는 기존 연구와는 달리, 본 연구에서는 전구체를 외부에서 첨가하지 않고 금 표면을 전기 화학적으로 변형하여 표면에 나노구조체를 형성하는 방법을 제시하였다. $Br^-$이 존재하는 인산 완충용액 전해질 하에서 금 전극에 산화전위를 가해 주면 산화 용해된 금은 $Br^-$과 결합하여 전극 표면에 전구체를 형성하는데, 이렇게 형성된 표면상의 전구체를 연이어 환원시켜 주면 실시간으로 나노구조 금 표면을 형성하는 것이 가능함을 보였다. 전극에 가해주는 전위와 시간의 조절이 전극 표면에 형성되는 금 나노구조의 모양에 미치는 영향을 체계적으로 관찰한 결과 독특한 척추 모양의 금 나노구조가 형성이 되었다. 척추 모양의 금 나노구조는 표면증강 라만 분광 활성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제시된 방법은 전구체 없이 전기화학적으로 금 전극 표면을 변형시키는 새로운 방법으로 금 나노구조 형성에 관한 연구에 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

The mammary gland contains a subpopulation of epithelial cells with large proliferative potentials which are the likely targets for carcinogens. These clonogenic cells can proliferate and differentiate into functional glandular structures. Multicellular secretory alveolar units (AU) develop from these clonogens in grafts of monodispersed rat mammary epithelial cells (RMEC) in gland-free mammary fat pads in intact recipient F344 rats co-grafted with mammotropic hormone-secreting pituitary tumors (MtT F4). Multicellular nonsecretory ductal units (DU) develop in grafts of monodispersed RMEC in gland-free fat pads in adrenalectomized recipient WF rats co-grafted with MtT W10. However, this effect were reversed by hydrocortisone replacement therapy. RMEC were isolated from appropriate donor rats as monodispersed mixed cells or, alternatively, RNA＋ cells were sorted by flow cytometry of mixed RMEC stained with FITC-RNA and PE-anti-Thy-1.1 monoclonal antibody. We grafted mixed or sorted PNA+ cells in gland-free mammary fat pads in recipient rats that were endocrinologically manipulated to induce AU or DU. Cells were also isolated from these AU or DU as mixed or sorted RNA＋ cells and sub-transplanted in recipient rats treated appropriately to induce AU or DU, respectively. Cells obtained from AU in grafts gave rise to clonal AU and from DU in grafts to DU on sub-transplantation in appropriate recipients. When adrenalectomized recipient WF rats co-grafted with MtT W10 received daily subcutaneous injections of hydrocortisone for periods of 21 days following the PHA＋ cell transplantation, AU, instead of DU, were developed. The histologies of these secondary AU and DU were not different from those of the primary AU and DU. Casein and laminin proteins were demonstrated by immunocytochemical staining of primary and secondary AU. Electron micrographs also demonstrated that AU were composed of secretory cells with milk protein in the cytoplasm. DU were composed of little or non-secretory ductal epithelial cells. These AU and DU also secreted large amounts of lipids. Clonogenic cells were more common in DU than in AU. Thus, AU and DU contain persistent subpopulations of clonogenic stem-like cells.

In the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution using thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent, analysis of each component constituting the plating solution is essential for the analysis of the reaction mechanism. And component analysis in the plating solution is important for monitoring component changes in the plating process and optimizing the management method. Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) method is rapid, sensitive and quantitative and could be readily applied to analysis of Auⁿ⁺ ion, complexing agent and reducing agent in electroless Au plating solution. In this study, the capillary electrophoresis method was used to analyze each component in the electroless Au plating solution in order to elucidate the complex bonding form and the plating mechanism of the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating bath. The purpose of this study was to establish data for optimizing the monitoring and management method of plating solution components to improve the uniformity of precipitation and stability. As a result, it was confirmed that the analysis of thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and Auⁿ⁺ ions and the analysis of aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent were possible by capillary electrophoresis. In the newly developed non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution, it was confirmed that Auⁿ⁺ ions exist in the form of Au⁺ having a charge of +1, and that thiomalic acid and Au⁺ are combined in a molar ratio of 2 : 1. In addition, it was confirmed that aminoethanethiol can form a complex by combining with Au⁺ ions depending on conditions as well as acting as a reducing agent.

Within the framework of the density functional theory combined with the method of non-equilibrium Green's functions (DFT + NEGF), the features of electron transport in fullerene nanojunctions, which are «core-shell» nanoobjects made of a combination of fullerenes of different diameters C₂₀, C₈₀, C₁₈₀, placed between gold electrodes (in a nanogap), are studied. Their transmission spectra, the density of state, current-voltage characteristics and differential conductivity are determined. It was shown that in the energy range of -0.45-0.45 eV in the transmission spectrum of the "Au-C₁₈₀-Au" nanojunction appears a HOMO-LUMO gap with a width of 0.9 eV; when small-sized fullerenes C₂₀, C₈₀ are intercalation into the cavity C₁₈₀ the gap disappears, and a series of resonant structures are observed on their spectra. It has been established that distinct Coulomb steps appear on the current-voltage characteristics of the "Au-C₁₈₀-Au" nanojunction, but on the current-voltage characteristics "Au-C₈₀@C₁₈₀-Au", "Au-(C₂₀@C₈₀)@C₁₈₀-Au" these step structures are blurred due to a decrease in Coulomb energy. An increase in the number of Coulomb features on the dI/dV spectra of core-shell fullerene nanojunctions was revealed in comparison with nanojunctions based on fullerene C₆₀, which makes it possible to create high-speed single-electron devices on their basis. Models of single-electron transistors (SET) based on fullerene nanojunctions "Au-C₁₈₀-Au", "Au-C₈₀@C₁₈₀-Au" and "Au-(C₂₀@C₈₀)@C₁₈₀-Au" are considered. Their charge stability diagrams are analyzed and it is shown that SET based on C₈₀@C₁₈₀-, (C₂₀@C₈₀)@C₁₈₀- nanojunctions is output from the Coulomb blockade mode with the lowest drain-to-source voltage.

A nanogap formed by a metal nanoparticle and a flat metal substrate is one kind of "hot site" for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The characteristics of a typical nanogap formed by a planar Au and either an Au and Ag nanoparticle have been well studied using 4-aminobenzenethiol (4-ABT) as a probe. 4-ABT is, however, an unusual molecule in the sense that its SERS spectral feature is dependent not only on the kinds of SERS substrates but also on the measurement conditions; thus further characterization is required using other adsorbate molecules such as 1,4-phenylenediisocyanide (1,4-PDI). In fact, no Raman signal was observable when 1,4-PDI was selfassembled on a flat Au substrate, but a distinct spectrum was obtained when 60 nm-sized Au or Ag nanoparticles were adsorbed on the pendent -NC groups of 1,4-PDI. This is definitely due to the electromagnetic coupling between the localized surface plasmon of Au or Ag nanoparticle with the surface plasmon polariton of the planar Au substrate, allowing an intense electric field to be induced in the gap between them. A higher Raman signal was observed when Ag nanoparticles were attached to 1,4-PDI, irrespective of the excitation wavelength, and especially the highest Raman signal was measured at the 632.8 nm excitation (with the enhancement factor on the order of ${\sim}10^3$), followed by the excitation at 568 and 514.5 nm, in agreement with the finite-difference timedomain calculation. From a separate potential-dependent SERS study, the voltage applied to the planar Au appeared to be transmitted without loss to the Au or Ag nanoparticles, and from the study of the effect of volatile organics, the voltage transmission from Au or Ag nanoparticles to the planar Au also appeared as equally probable to that from the planar Au to the Au or Ag nanoparticles in a nanogap electrode. The response of the Au-Ag nanogap to the external stimuli was, however, not the same as that of the Au-Au nanogap.

광열 치료(photothermal therapy)란 빛을 조사하여 열을 발생시킴으로써 정상세포보다 열에 약한 비정상 세포, 특히 암세포를 선택적으로 괴사시키는 치료법이다. 본 연구에서는 광열 치료를 위한 카르복실화된 환원 그래핀옥사이드(reduced graphene oxide with carboxyl groups, CRGO)-골드나노막대(gold nanorod, AuNR) 나노복합체를 합성하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 그래핀옥사이드(graphene oxide, GO)를 고온에서 선택적으로 환원, 박리하여 CRGO를 합성하였고, AgNO₃의 양에 따라 AuNR의 길이를 조절하여 880 nm에서 강한 흡광 특성을 나타내는 AuNR를 합성하여 광열 인자로 사용하였다. 일반적인 방법으로 환원된 RGO에 비해 CRGO에 상대적으로 많은 카르복실기가 결합되어 있음을 FT-IR, 열 중량 분석 및 형광 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 또한, RGO에 비해 많은 carboxyl group이 결합된 CRGO는 수용액상에서 우수한 안정성을 나타내었다. 정전기적 상호작용을 통해 합성된 CRGO-AuNR 나노복합체는 약 317 nm의 균일한 크기와 좁은 크기 분포를 보였다. CRGO-AuNR 나노복합체는 두 가지 광열 인자인 CRGO와 AuNR의 synergistic effect로 인하여 조직 투과도가 우수한 근적외선 880 nm 레이저의 조사에 의한 광열 효과가 AuNR보다 2배 이상 향상 되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 광열 효과에 의한 암세포 독성 분석 결과, CRGO-AuNR 나노복합체가 가장 우수한 세포 독성 특성을 나타내었다. 따라서 CRGO-AuNR 나노복합체는 안정된 분산성과 향상된 광열 효과를 기반으로 항암 광열 요법 분야에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

With Ni/Au and Pd/Au metal schemes and low temperature processing, we formed low resistance stable Ohmic contacts to p-type GaN. Our investigation was preceded by conventional cleaning, followed by treatment in boiling $HNO_3$:HCl (1:3). Metallization was by thermally evaporating 30 nm Ni/15 nm Au or 25 nm Pd/15 nm Au. After heat treatment in $O_2$ + $N_2$ at various temperatures, the contacts were subsequently cooled in liquid nitrogen. Cryogenic cooling following heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$ decreased the specific contact resistance from $9.84{\times}10^{-4}$ ${\Omega}cm^2$ to $2.65{\times}10^{-4}$ ${\Omega}cm^2$ for the Ni/Au contacts, while this increased it from $1.80{\times}10^{-4}$ ${\Omega}cm^2$ to $3.34{\times}10^{-4}$ ${\Omega}cm^2$ for the Pd/Au contacts. The Ni/Au contacts showed slightly higher specific contact resistance than the Pd/Au contacts, although they were more stable than the Pd contacts. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy depth profiling showed the Ni contacts to be NiO followed by Au at the interface for the Ni/Au contacts, whereas the Pd/Au contacts exhibited a Pd:Au solid solution. The contacts quenched in liquid nitrogen following sintering were much more uniform under atomic force microscopy examination and gave a 3 times lower contact resistance with the Ni/Au design. Current-voltage-temperature analysis revealed that conduction was predominantly by thermionic field emission.
