본 연구에서는 유리 기판과 Si 기판에 Ag-doped ZnO 나노로드를 수열합성법을 이용하여 성장하였다. ZnO는 UV 영역에서 exciton 발광을 하며, 가시광선에서도 발광을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그리고 Ag 금속은 입자형태로 ZnO 박막에 도포되었을 때 UV영역의 발광 세기를 강화시킨다는 사실이 알려져 있다. 이러한 내용을 바탕으로 ZnO 나노로드 합성 용액에 Ag powder의 양을 변화시켜 첨가하고, 유리와 Si기판을 넣고 80도에서 30분간 성장하였다. XRD, XPS를 통해 구조적 특성 변화를 보았고 SEM을 통해 나노로드의 형태를 확인하였다. 또한 PL, 투과도 측정을 통해 Ag 도핑에 따른 광학적 특성 변화를 확인하였다. SEM 측정으로 샘플의 단면을 확인한 결과 Ag 도핑 농도에 따른 차이가 거의 없음을 알았다. ZnO 나노로드가 성장된 유리 기판은 본래의 유리기판보다 투과도가 높았으며, Ag를 많이 첨가할수록 투과도가 낮아졌다.

It includes the synthesis of pristine ZnO nanoparticles and a series of Ag-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles was carried out by reflux method by varying the amount of silver (1, 3, 5, 7 and 9% by mol.). The morphology of these nanoparticles was investigated by SEM, XRD and FT-IR techniques. These techniques show that synthesized particles are homogenous spherical nanoparticles having an average particle size of about 50-100 nm along with some agglomeration. The photocatalytic activity of the ZnO nanoparticles and Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles were investigated via photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) as a standard dye. The data from the photocatalytic activity of these nanoparticles show that 7% Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles exhibit much enhanced photocatalytic activity as compared to pristine ZnO nanoparticles and other percentages of Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles. Furthermore, 7% Ag-doped ZnO was made composites with sulfur-doped graphitic carbon nitride by physical mixing method and a series of nanocomposites were made (3.5, 7.5, 25, 50, 75% by weight). It was observed that the 25% composites exhibited better photocatalytic performance than pristine S-g-C 3 N 4 and pure 7% Ag-doped ZnO. Tauc's plot also supports the photodegradation results.

은 콜로이드 용액을 이용하여 은이 침적된 생체활성 세라믹 복합체를 제조하였다. 제조된 은 콜로이드 용액과 생체활성 세라믹 복합체의 물리적 특성은 각각 X-선 회절분석기, 라만분광기, 전자현미경으로 분석하였다. X-선 회절분석 자료에 의하면 은 나노입자의 표면에 염소이온이 화학적으로 결합한다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 또한 전자현미경 분석에서는 은이 침적된 생체활성 세라믹 복합체의 표면에 염화은이 균일하게 분포하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 생체활성 세라믹 복합체 표면의 염화은이 생체활성 세라믹 복합체의 하이드록시아파타이트 형성을 강하게 방지한다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다.

We have demonstrated new functionalities of Ag doped chalcogenide glasses based on their capabilities as solid electrolytes. Formation of such amorphous systems by the introduction of silver via photo-induced diffusion in thin chalcogenide films is considered. The influence of silver on the properties of the newly formed materials is regarded in terms of diffusion kinetics and Ag saturation is related to the composition of the hosting material. Silver saturated chalcogenide glasses have been used in the formation of solid electrolyte which is the active medium in programmable metallization cell (PMC) devices. In this paper, we investigated electrical and optical properties of Ag-doped chalcogenide thin film on changed thickness of Ag and chalcogenide thin films, which is concerned at Ag-doping effect of PMC cell. As a result, when thickness of Ag and chalcogenide thin film was 30nm and 50nm respectively, device have excellent characteristics.

In this study, we studied the nature of thin films formed by photodoping chalcogenide materials with for use in programmable metallization cell devices, a type of ReRAM. We investigated the resistance of Ag-doped chalcogenide thin films varied in the applied voltage bias direction from about 1 M$\Omega$ to several hundreds of $\Omega$. As a result of these resistance change effects, it was found that these effects agreed with PMC-RAM. The results imply that a Ag-rich phase separates owing to the reaction of Ag with free atoms from the chalcogenide materials.

In this study, we studied switching characteristics of germanium selenide(Ge-Se)/silver(Ag) contact formed by photodoping for use in programmable metallization cell devices. We have been investigated the switching characteristics of Ag-doped chalcogenide thin films. Changed resistance range by direction of applied voltage is about $1\;M{\Omega}$ $\sim$ hundreds of $\Omega$. The cause of these resistance change can be thought the same phenomenon such as resistance variation of PMC-RAM. The results imply that the separated Ag-ions react the atoms or defects in chalcogenide thin films.

In this paper, we investigated the diffraction grating efficiency on AsSeS and Ag-doped amorphous chalcogenide Ag/AsSeS thin film for used to volume hologram. The film thickness was 0.5um and diffraction efficiency was obtained from (P:P) polarized He-Ne (632.8nm)laser beam on AsSeS and Ag/AsSeS thin films. As a results, diffraction grating was not formed at AsSeS thin film but at Ag-doped AsSeS thin film, diffraction grating was formed well compare with the former.

Highly self-cleaning thin films of $TiO_2-SiO_2$ co-doped with Ag and F are prepared by the sol-gel method. The asprepared thin films consist of bottom $SiO_2$ and top $TiO_2$ layers which are modified by doping with F, Ag and F-Ag elements. XRD analysis confirms that the prepared thin film is a crystalline anatase phase. UV-vis spectra show that the light absorption of $Ag-F-TiO_2/SiO_2$ thin films is tuned in the visible region. The self-cleaning properties of the prepared films are evaluated by a water contact angle measurement under UV light irradiation. The photocatalytic performances of the thin films are studied using methylene blue dye under both UV and visible light irradiation. The $Ag-F-TiO_2/SiO_2$ thin films exhibit higher photocatalytic activity under both UV and visible light compared with other samples of pure $TiO_2$, Ag-doped $TiO_2$, and F-doped $TiO_2$ films.

Fluorine-doped $SnO_2$ (FTO) thin film/Ag nanowire (NW) double layers were fabricated by means of spin coating and ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. To investigate the optimum thickness of the FTO thin films when used as protection layer for Ag NWs, the deposition time of the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process was varied at 0, 1, 3, 5, or 10 min. The structural, chemical, morphological, electrical, and optical properties of the double layers were examined using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, the Hall effect measurement system, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Although pure Ag NWs formed isolated droplet-shaped Ag particles at an annealing temperature of $300^{\circ}C$, Ag NWs covered by FTO thin films maintained their high-aspect-ratio morphology. As the deposition time of the FTO thin films increased, the electrical and optical properties of the double layers degraded gradually. Therefore, the double layer fabricated with FTO thin films deposited for 1 min exhibited superb sheet resistance (${\sim}14.9{\Omega}/{\Box}$), high optical transmittance (~88.6 %), the best FOM (${\sim}19.9{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$), and excellent thermal stability at an annealing temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ owing to the good morphology maintenance of the Ag NWs covered by FTO thin films.

In the present work, a Ni-doped indium zinc oxide (NIZO) film and its multilayers with Ag layers were investigated as transparent conducting electrodes for liquid crystal display (LCD) applications, as a substitute for indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. By interposing the Ag layer between the NIZO layers, the loss of the optical transmittance occurred; however, the Ag layer brought enhancement of electrical sheet resistance to the NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode. The twisted nematic cell based on the NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode exhibited superior electro-optical characteristics than those based on single NIZO electrode and was competitive compared to those based on the conventional ITO electrode. An LCD-based NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode may allow new approaches to conventional ITO electrodes in display technology.
