The NOx conversion properties of Mn-Cu-$TiO_2$ and $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalysts were studied for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with ammonia. The performance of the catalysts was investigated in terms of their $NOx$ conversion activity as a function of the reaction temperature and space velocity. The activity of the Mn-Cu-$TiO_2$ catalyst decreased with increasing reaction temperature and space velocity. However, the activity of the $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst increased with increasing reaction temperature. High activity of the Mn-Cu-$TiO_2$ catalyst was observed at temperatures below $200^{\circ}C$. H2-TPR and XPS analyses were conducted to explain these results. It was found that the activity of the Mn-Cu-$TiO_2$ catalyst was influenced by the thermal shock caused by the change of the initial reaction temperature, whereas the $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst was not affected by the initial reaction temperature. In the case of catalyst C, the $NO_x$ conversion efficiency decreased with increasing space velocity. The decrease in the $NO_x$ conversion efficiency with increasing space velocity was much less for catalyst D than for catalyst C.

$Cu-CeO_2$ catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation and liquid phase oxidation (CP-LPO) and the prepared catalysts were examined as selective oxidation of carbon monoxide catalysts for the application of fuel cell vehicles. The prepared $Cu-CeO_2$ catalysts showed high reaction activity, but it was hard to find the correlation between the amount of Cu loaded and the reaction activities. As increase of the amount of Cu loaded, the micro pore structure of the catalyst was changed. It is due to the formation of solid solution between Cu and $CeO_2$. During pretreatment, the catalyst formed the solid-solution of Cu-Ce-O, resulting in the improvement of catalytic activity.

In this research, sol-gel processed CuO p-type thin film transistors were fabricated with copper (II) acetate monohydrate precursors. After $500^{\circ}C$ annealing process, the deposited thin films were fully converted into CuO. We investigated $UV/O_3$ process time effect on electrical characteristics of sol-gel processed CuO thin film transistors. After 600 sec $UV/O_3$ process, the fabricated CuO thin film transistor delivered field effect mobility in saturation regime of $5{\times}10^{-3}\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and on/off current ratio of ${\sim}10^2$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of $V_2$$O_{5}$ addition on the Ag and Cu precipitation in the NiCuZn ferrite layers of 7.7${\times}$4.5${\times}$1.0 mm sized multi-layer chip inductors prepared by the screen printing method using 0∼0.5 wt% $V_2$$O_{5}$ -doped ferrite pastes. With increasing the $V_2$$O_{5}$ content and sintering temperature, Ag and Cu oxide coprecipitated more and more at the polished surface of ferrite layers during re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$. It was thought that during the sintering process, V dissolved in the NiCuZn ferrite lattice and the Ag-Cu liquid phase of low melting point was formed in the ferrite layers due to the Cu segregation from the ferrite lattice and Ag diffusion from the internal electrode. During re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$, the Ag-Cu liquid phase came out the polished surface of ferrite layers, and was decomposed into the isolated Ag particles and the Cu oxide phase during the cooling process.

An all-transparent photodetector was fabricated by structuring $Cu_2O$/ZnO/AZO/ITO on a glass substrate. The visible-range transmittance was as high as 80%, which ensures clear vision forhuman eyes. High-transparency metal conductive oxides (p-type $Cu_2O$ and n-type ZnO) were appliedto form the transparent p/n junction. The functional AZO layer was adopted to improve the transparent photodetector performance between the ZnO and ITO, improving the photoresponses because of its electrical conductivity. To clarify the AZO functionality, a comparator device was prepared without the AZO layer in the formation of $Cu_2O$/ZnO/ITO/Glass. The $Cu_2O$/ZnO/AZO/ITO device provided a rectifying ratio of 113.46, significantly better than the 9.44 of the $Cu_2O$/ZnO/ITO device. In addition, the $Cu_2O$/ZnO/AZO/ITO device's photoresponses at short wavelengths were better than those of the comparator. The functioning AZO layer provides ahigh-performing transparent Cu oxide photodetector and may suggest a route for the design of efficient photoelectric devices.

Two new Cu(II) complexes, $[Cu_2(acpy-mdtc)_2(HBA)(ClO_4)]{\cdot}H_2O$ (1) (acpy-mdtc- = 2-acetylpyridine S-methyldithiocarbamate and $HBA^-$ = benzilic acid anion) and $[Cu_2(acpy-phtsc)_2(HBA)]{\cdot}ClO_4$ (2) (acpy-$phtsc^-$ = 2-acetylpyridine 4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazate) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray analysis reveals that the structures of 1 and 2 are dinuclear copper(II) complexes bridged by two thiolate sulfur atoms of Schiff base ligand and bidentate bridging $HBA^-$ anion. For 1, each of the two copper atoms has different coordination environments. Cu1 adopts a five-coordinate square-pyramidal with a $N_2OS_2$ donor, while Cu2 exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry in a $N_2O_2S_2$ manner. For 2, two Cu(II) ions all have a five-coordinate square-pyramidal with a $N_2OS_2$ donor. In each complex, the Schiff base ligand is coordinated to copper ions as a tridentate thiol mode.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) has become one of the key processes in wafer level stacking technology for 3D stacked IC. In this study, two-step CMP process was proposed to polish $Cu/SiO_2$ hybrid bonding surface, that is, Cu CMP was followed by $SiO_2$ CMP to minimize Cu dishing. As a result, Cu dishing was reduced down to $100{\sim}200{\AA}$ after $SiO_2$ CMP and surface roughness was also improved. The bonding interface showed no noticeable dishing or interface line, implying high bonding strength.

For the fabrication of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ thick film, a substrate of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ was fabricated by adding $CeO_2$ into $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and two types of doping materials added with binder material were prepared. Each doping material was patterned on $Y_2BaCuO_5$substrate by the screen printing method and then was annealed at the temperature with a few step. It could be observed by X-ray diffraction patterns and SEM photographs that through the diffusion process of the $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and each doping material, the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ phase was formed. And with n additive of $CeO_2$ the thickness of formed $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$decreased. From the experiment of current limiting on thick film, the sample with thiner thickness of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ showed the more effective characteristics of current limiting.

For the preferential oxidation of CO contained in the fuel of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), CuO-$CeO_2$ mixed oxide catalysts were prepared by the sol-gel and co-precipitation methods to replace noble metal catalysts. In the catalyst preparation by the sol-gel method, Cu/Ce ratio and hydrolysis ratio were changed. The catalytic activity of the prepared catalysts was compared with the catalytic activity of the noble metal catalyst($Pt/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$). Among the catalysts prepared with different Cu/Ce ratios, the catalyst whose Cu/Ce ratio was 4:16 showed the highest CO conversion (90%) and selectivity (60%) at $150^{\circ}C$. As the hydrolysis ratio was increased in the catalyst preparation, surface area increased, and catalytic activity also increased. The highest CO conversions with the CuO-$CeO_2$ mixed oxide catalyst prepared by the co-precipitation method and the noble metal catalyst (1wt% $Pt/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$) were 82 and 81% at $150^{\circ}C$, respectively, whereas the highest CO conversion with the CuO-$CeO_2$ mixed oxide catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method was 90% at the same temperature. This indicates that the catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method shows higher catalytic activity than the catalysts prepared by the co-precipitation method and the noble metal catalyst. From the CO-TPD experiment, it was found that the catalyst having CO desorption peak at a lower temperature ($140^{\circ}C$) revealed higher catalytic activity.

reactive oxygen species에 의해 나타나는 reactivity에 있어서 metal ions이 관여함이 시사되고 있다. 이미 알려진 reactive oxygen species와 metal ions의 상호작용 이외에 특히 $Cu^{++}$과 $H_2O_2$가 강력한 peroxidative action을 나타낸다는 사실이 알려져 있으며 $Cu^{++}-H_2O_2$가 biological system 에서의 조직파괴에 관여할 가능성이 저자들에 의해서 효소 및 조직치 구조 단백질의 gradation 효과를 관찰함으로써 시사되었다. 본 연구는 $H_2O_2$ 혹은 $H_2O_2$를 생성하는 효소계(xanthine과 xanthine oxidase 및 glucose과 glucose oxidase)에 $Cu^{++}$을 첨가하여 $Cu^{++}-H_2O_2$에 의한 peroxidation의 효과를 collagen gelation을 통하여 확인코저 수행하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) $Cu^{++}(20\;{\mu}M)$과 $H_2O_2$에 의하며 collagen gelation은 현저히 억제되었으며 이같은 억제효과는 양자의 농도에 비례하였다. 2) $Cu^{++}-H_2O_2$ reactivity를 확인하는 다른 방법으로 glucose oxidase system를 이용하였다. glucose oxidase$(2.5{\mu}g/ml)$ 와 glucose(0.5 mM)는 collagen gelation에 영향을 미치지 않았으나 이에 $Cu^{++}$이 존재하면 gelation이 억제되었다. 이때 억제정도는 $glucose(0.125{\sim}l.25\;mM)$와 $Cu^{++}$의 농도에 비례하였다. 3) 여러 reactive oxygen species 가운데 $Cu^{++}-H_2O_2$ reactivity를 xanthine oxidase system을 이용하여 확인하였다. (a) collagen gelation은 xanthine oxidase(30 munits/ml)와 xanthine$(0.25{\sim}2\;mM)$에 의하여 억제되었다. (b) 이때 나타나는 collagen gelation의 억제는 superoxide dismutase에 의하여 완전히 회복되었으나 catalase에 의해서는 더욱 촉진되었다. 그러나 catalase에 의한 억제효과의 촉진은 1,4-diazabicyclo(2,2,2)octane에 의하여 완전히 소실되었다. 따라서 이 xanthine oxidase system에서는 $O_2-,\;H_2O_2,\;^1O_2$이 관여함을 알 수 있었다. (c) 그러나 $Cu^{++}(10\;{\mu}M)$이 존재하였을 때 collagen gelation은 superoxie dismutase에 의해 더욱 억제되었고 catalase에 의해서는 완전히 회복되었다. xanthine oxidase계에서 얻어진 결과는 여러 reactive oxygen species가운데 $H_2O_2$가 $Cu^{++}$에 의하여 peroxidation효과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 볼 때 reactive oxygen species와 metal ions과의 상호작용 가운데 $Cu^{++}-H_2O_2$는 강한 반응을 나타내는 특이한 구성요소이고 헌재 시사되고 있는 reactive oxygen species의 biological effects에 비추어 $Cu^{++}-catalyzed peroxidation$도 병적상태에서 생체에 유해한 작용을 나타내는 요소임을 시사하며 특히 염증시 조직파괴역할에 관하여 고찰하였다.
