Generally, Au electrodes are the preferred top metal electrodes in most perovskite solar cells (PSCs) because of their appropriate work function for hole transportation and their resistance to metal-halide formation. However, for the commercialization of PSCs, the development of alternative metal electrodes for Au is essential to decrease their fabrication cost. Ag electrodes are considered one of the most suitable alternatives for Au electrodes because they are relatively cheaper and can provide the necessary stability for oxidation. However, Ag electrodes require an aging-induced recovery process and react with halides from perovskite layers. Herein, we propose a bilayer Au/Ag electrode to overcome the limitations of single Au and Ag metal electrodes. The performance of PSCs based on bilayer electrodes is comparable to that of PSCs with Au electrodes. Furthermore, by using the bilayer electrode, we can eliminate the aging process, normally an essential process for Ag electrodes. This study not only demonstrates an effective method to substitute for expensive Au electrodes but also provides a possibility to overcome the limitations of Ag electrodes.

Au 정광으로부터 Au Ag의 용출율을 향상시키기 위하여 기계적-화학적 활성화와 티오요소-티오시안산염 혼합용액을 적용하였다. 기계적-화학적 활성화를 이루기 위하여 정광 시료를 건식으로 그리고 습식으로 미분쇄하였다. 입도분포 분석과 XRD 분석 결과, 평균 입도 크기와 결정크기는 정광 시료보다 건식-시료에서 그리고 건식-시료보다 습식-시료에서 더 작게 나타났다. SEM과 XRD 분석 결과 기계적-화학적 활성화에 의해서 습식-시료에서 비정질화 현상이 관찰되었다. Au Ag에 대한 용출실험을 티오요소 용액, 티오시안산염 용액 그리고 티오요소-티오시안산염 혼합 용액으로 각각 수행하였다. Au Ag 용출율은 정광 시료보다 건식-시료에서 그리고 건식-시료보다 습식-시료에서 더 높게 나타났다. Au Ag는 티오요소 용액에서 보다 티오시안산염 용액에서 그리고 티오시안산염 용액에서보다 티오요소-티오시안산염 혼합 용액에서 더 높게 용출되었다. 습식-시료와 티오요소-티오시안산염 혼합 용액을 적용할 때 Au Ag가 99% 이상으로 용출되었다.

Due to the latest research trend toward wearable energy devices, transparent and stretchable supercapacitors which can sustain their performance even under physical deformation have steadily attracted huge attention. Despite the Ag NW is the most promising candidate for fabrication of transparent and stretchable electronics, the electrochemical instability interrupts its application to development of the energy device. Here, we introduce a transparent and highly stretchable supercapacitor made by Au-Ag core shell NW network percolation electrode. The Au-Ag core shell NW synthesized by a simple solution process not only shows excellent electrical conductivity but also greatly enhanced chemical and electrochemical stability compare to pristine Ag NW. These outstanding properties of the Au-Ag core shell NW are attributed both to the core Ag NW and the Au protecting sheath layer. The proposed Au-Ag core shell NW based supercapacitor exhibits optical transmittance with outstanding mechanical stability withstanding 60% strain without any decrease of the performance. The supercapacitors connected in series are charged and discharged stable in 30% strain turning on a red LED. These notable results demonstrate the potential of the Au-Ag core shell NW as a strong candidate for development of wearable energy devices.

In order to replace 14K white gold alloys, the properties of 5K white gold alloys (Au20-Ag80) were investigated by changing the contents of In (0.0-10.0 wt%). Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) was used to determine the precise content of alloys. Properties of the alloys such as hardness, melting point, color difference, and corrosion resistance were determined using Vickers Hardness test, TGA-DTA, UV-VIS-NIR-colorimetry, and salt-spray tests, respectively. Wetting angle analysis was performed to determine the wettability of the alloys on plaster. The results of the EDS analysis confirmed that the Au-Ag-In alloys had been fabricated with the intended composition. The results of the Vickers hardness test revealed that each Au-Ag-In alloy had higher mechanical hardness than that of 14K white gold. TGA-DTA analysis showed that the melting point decreased with an increase in the In content. In particular, the alloy containing 10.0 wt% In showed a lower melting temperature (> $70^{\circ}C$) than the other alloys, which implied that alloys containing 10.0 wt% In can be used as soldering materials for Au-Ag-In alloys. Color difference analysis also revealed that all the Au-Ag-In alloys showed a color difference of less than 6.51 with respect to 14K white gold, which implied a white metallic color. A 72-h salt-spray test confirmed that the Au-AgIn alloys showed better corrosion resistance than 14K white gold alloys. All Au-Ag-In alloys showed wetting angle similar to that of 14K white gold alloys. It was observed that the 10.0 wt% In alloy had a very small wetting angle, further confirming it as a good soldering material for white metals. Our results show that white 5K Au-Ag-In alloys with appropriate properties might be successful substitutes for 14K white gold alloys.

We compared the electrical, optical, structural, and interface properties of indium zinc oxide (IZO)-Ag-IZO and IZO-Au-IZO multilayer electrodes deposited by linear facing target sputtering system at room temperature for organic photovoltaics. The IZO-Ag-IZO and IZO-Au-IZO multilayer electrodes show a significant reduction in their sheet resistance (4.15 and 5.49 Ohm/square) and resistivity ($3.9{\times}10^{-5}$ and $5.5{\times}10^{-5}$Ohm-cm) with increasing thickness of the Ag and Au layers, respectively. In spite of its similar electrical properties, the optical transmittance of the IZO-Ag-IZO electrode is much higher than that of the IZO-Au-IZO electrode, due to the more effective antireflection effect of Ag than Au in the visible region. In addition, the Auger electron spectroscopy depth profile results for the IZO/Ag/IZO and IZO/Au/IZO multilayer electrodes showed no interfacial reaction between the IZO layer and Ag or Au layer, due to the low preparation temperature. To investigate in detail the Ag and Au structures on the bottom IZO electrode with increasing thickness, a synchrotron x-ray scattering examination was employed. Moreover, the OSC fabricated on the IZO-Ag-IZO electrode shows a higher power conversion efficiency (3.05%) than the OSC prepared on the IZO-Au-IZO electrode (2.66%), due to its high optical transmittance in the wavelength range of 400-600 nm, which is the absorption wavelength of the P3HT:PCBM active layer.

유기용매인 클로로포름 매질에서 소수성의 합금 나노 미립자를 만드는 새로운 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 소수성 합금 나노 미립자들은 계면활성제(sodium bis(2-ethyl hexyl)-sulfosuccinate, NaAOT)를 포함한 클로로포름 용액에 금속염 즉, $HAuCl_4,\AgNO_3,\Cu(NO_3)_2$을 사용하여 합금의 조성을 조절하여 혼합한 후 sodium borohydride $(NaBH_4)$로 환원시켜 합성하였다. Au/Ag, Au/Cu 합금 나노 미립자의 조성은 1:3, 1:1, 3:1의 몰비로 변화시키면서 합성하였다. UV/Visible, TEM, XPS를 사용하여 합금 나노 미립자의 특성을 측정하였다. Au/Cu 합금 나노 미립자의 표면 공명 흡수는 순수한 금인 경우의 최대흡수 파장인 520 nm에서 순수한 구리의 표면 공명 흡수인 570 nm까지 선형적으로 변하였고, Au/Ag 합금 나노 미립자는 순수한 은의 최대흡수 파장인 405 nm에서 순수한 금의 경우인 520 nm까지 선형적으로 변하였다. 합금 나노 미립자의 Au4f, Ag3d, Cu2p 전자의 구속 에너지는 합금의 조성 비율에 따라 달라지게 된다. 합성된 합금 나노 미립자들은 매우 균일하고 장시간 안정한 분산상태를 유지하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 본 연구에서 사용한 방법은 소수성의 합금 나노 미립자를 합성하는데 매우 효과적인 방법이라고 사료된다.

Hollow gold-silver bimetallic nanoparticles (AuAg-HNPs) have been synthesized and their optical and structural properties were characterized. Initially Ag nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were prepared using poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) as a reducing and a stabilizing agent simultaneously. AuAg-HNPs could then be synthesized via galvanic replacement reaction in a PEI aqueous solution by reacting sacrificial Ag template with a precursor compound of Au, i.e., $HAuCl_4$. Due to the presence of abundant amine functional groups in PEI, which could act as the dissolving ligand for AgCl, the precipitation problem of $Ag^+$ in the presence of Cl from $HAuCl_4$ salt was avoided. On this basis, the relatively high concentrations of $HAuCl_4$ and PEI-stabilized Ag nanoparticles could be used for the fabrication of AuAg-HNPs. Because of their increased surface areas and reduced densities, the AuAg-HNPs were expected and confirmed to outperform their solid counterparts in applications such as catalysis for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol in the presence of $NaBH_4$.

항균 활성도를 조사하기 위해 이산화티탄미립자 표면에 나노메탈(Au, Ag)을 균일하게 도핑한 나노복합체($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2,\;Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)를 초음파환원법과 졸-겔 법으로 제조하였다. 이렇게 제조된 나노메탈-이산화티탄 복합체의 항균 활성도는 고체배지 표면에 나노복합체와 함께 E. coli를 도말하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 후 생존된 콜로니 개수의 측정을 통해서 이루어졌다. 나노복합체의 초기 항균 효율은 나노메탈이 도핑된 이산화티탄미립자($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2,\;Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)) 복합체가 도핑하지 않은 이산화티탄미립자($TiO_2$)에 비해 높은 항균 효율을 나타내주었다. 이후, 나노복합체를 $4^{\circ}C$에서 보관 후 장기보관에 따른 항균특성을 비교해본 결과, 나노메탈만 도핑된 복합체($Ag-TiO_2,\;Au-TiO_2$)보다는 $Ag-TiO_2,$의 표면을 다시 산화티탄막으로 코팅한 복합체($Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$)의 항균특성이 오랫동안 유지되는 것을 알수 있었다. 이는 산화티탄막으로 다시 코팅한 $Ag-TiO_2$@$TiO_x$의 경우에 Ag 나노메탈의 산화방지 및 나노복합체의 콜로이드 안정성 향상이 이루어졌기 때문으로 사료된다.
