Pure and Fe-doped CuO thin-film and powder samples were prepared using a sol-gel method. Undoped CuO films exhibited monoclinic structure and p-type electrical conductivity $(\~10^{-2}\;{\Omega^{-1}\;cm^{-1}$ due to copper deficiency. On the other hand, CuO: Fe films were found to be insulating and Li doping on the films led to a restoration of p-type conductivity and a ferromagnetic hysteresis behaviour at room temperature. The observed properties far the CuO : Fe, Li films can be explained in terms of hole creation by substitution of $Li^+$ for $Cu^{2+}$ sites and mediation of long-range interactions between $Fe^{3+}$ ions by the $Li^+$-induced defect states. CuO: Fe powders exhibited a ferromagnetism at room temperature with its strength being dependent on post-annealing temperature. Mossbauer measurements on the CuO: Fe films and powders revealed that the octahedral $Cu^{2+}$ sites are mostly substituted by $Fe^{3+}$ ions.

The magnetic properties of the $Y_{1}Ba_{2}Cu_{3-x}Sn_{x}O_{7-y}$ superconductor were studied as a function of Sn concentration by utilizing both the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and torque magnetometer. Unlike the cases where Fe and Co were substituted for Cu, the superconducting transition temperature was maintained above 90 K until x reached the value of 0.36. The lower critical field $H_{c1}(T)$ and upper critical field $H_{c2}(T)$ are measured as a function of temperature and external magnetic field, respectively. By aid of these results, $H_{c1}(0)$.($H_{c2}(0)$), the coherence length ${\varepsilon}_{0}$, the penetration depth ${\lambda}_{0}$, and the Ginzburg-Landau parameter k were oqtained. Flux pinning was also observed in the sample.

While in the process of electroless plating of dendrite-shape copper with silver, various silver-coated copper (Ag@Cu) particles were prepared by using both displacement plating and reducing electroless plating. The physicochemical properties of Ag@Cu particles were analyzed by scanning electron microscope- energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis (BET), and it was confirmed that the silver coated by the reducing electroless plating was formed as nano-particles on the copper surface. Ag@Cu particles were compounded with an epoxy resin to prepare a conductive film, and its thermal stability was evaluated. We investigated the effect of the difference between the displacement plating and reducing electroless plating on the initial resistance and thermal stability of conductive films.

The $AsO_4$ ion in acid mine drainage has been known to substitute for $SO_4$ in schwertmannite and prevent schwertmannite from being converted to goethite. There have been studies on the heavy metal sorption on schwertmannite, but no experimental results have been reported on the characteristics of heavy metal sorption on $AsO_4$-substituted schwertmannite. In this study, we conducted sorption experiments of Cu, Pb, and Zn on the $AsO_4$-substituted schwertmannite at pH 4 and 6 in the solution of 3, 10, 30, and 100 mg/L concentrations. For all heavy metals, the sorbed heavy metals significantly increase at pH 6 compared with at pH 4. At both pH 4 and 6, Pb shows the highest sorption capacity and those of Cu and Zn are similar. With increasing time, the sorbed heavy meal contents increase too. However, in the case of Zn, the most sorptions occur at the initial stage and no significant increase is observed with time. Among the concentration ranges in which we conducted the experiment, the increasing trend is clear in high concentrated solutions such as 100 mg/L. We applied several sorption kinetic model and it shows that the diffusion process may be the most important factor controlling the sorption kinetics of Cu, Pb, and Zn on $AsO_4$-substituted schwertmannite. Considering the previous results that pure schwertmannite has similar sorption capacity for all three heavy metals at pH 6 and has higher sorption capacity for Cu and Pb than Zn at pH 4, our experiments indicates that substitution of $AsO_4$ for $SO_4$ on schwertmannite changes surface and sorption characteristics of schwertmannite. It also shows that $AsO_4$ contributes not only to the stability of schwertmannite, but also to the mobility of heavy metals in acid mine drainage.

We investigated the structures and electronic properties of Cu_mSiO_m+1 clusters with m = 0 - 7. For these clusters, we replaced a Cu atom in the copper oxide clusters with a Si atom. The B3LYP functional and LANL2DZ basis set were used for optimization of the molecular structures of all neutral and charged clusters. The bond distances, bond angles, and Mulliken charges were calculated to study the structural properties. In addition, in order to understand the electronic properties, we examined the ionization energies, electronic affinities, and second differences in energies.

경북 구룡포에 소재한 구룡광산에서 산출하는 불석(클리놉틸로라이트와 모데나이트의 집합체)에 대한 Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Fe2+ 및 NH4+ 등 양이온의 치환성질을 알아보기 위하여 베치실험을 실시하였다. 60∼80 메쉬 및 230 메쉬의 시료를 사용하여 각각 50ppm의 농도를 가진 용액과 반응시켰다. 반응후의 용액은 AA 및 전극 (NH4+)으로 분석하여 치환양을 측정하였다. 본 연구결과 Pb2+와 NH4+가 다른 이온들보다 훨씬 높은 선택성을 보여 주었다. 불석에 대한 이온들의 선택성은 NH4+, Pb2+》Zn2+, Cu2-, Co2->Cd2-, Fe2+와 같다. 실험결과 불석시료가 용액으로부터 흡착한 양이 시료로부터 용액으로 추출된 양보다 훨씬 높게 나타나고 있는 바 이는 이온치환보다는 불석의 시브(sieve) 효과에 의한 이온흡착현상이 우세하게 일어났다는 것을 지시해준다. 본 실험은 이 불석이 중금속과 암모니아와 같은 오염물을 제거하는데 사용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

The EPR absorption of furan compounds adsorbed on CuY zeolite was studied. With the adsorption of furan on CuY a new high field having a width of 8 gauss and g-factor of 2.002 appeared in EPR spectrum, while the original signal of Cu(Ⅱ) decreased. When 2-methylfuran was adsorbed on Cu(15)Y a new absorption band with a hyperfine structure appeared. With the increase of the degree of Cu(Ⅱ) ion exchange the resolution of the hyperfine structure became poor. The appearance of the new band was interpreted in terms of the formation of a charge transfer complex between Cu(Ⅱ) ion and the furan ring.

We investigated the effects of a long term application of soil amendments such as lime, silicate, compost, or combinations of these materials on the contents of Cu and Zn in paddy soil and brown rice. The results obtained from a sequential extraction of Cu and Zn in paddy soils and brown rice, using $H_2O$, $KNO_3$, $Na_2$-EDTA and $HNO_3$ and showed that the most of Cu and Zn were NaOH-extractable (organically bound form) and $HNO_3$-extractable (sulfide and residual form). Cu contents of NaOH and EDTA extractable increased with the long term application of compost while the contents of Zn extracted by $KNO_3$ was decreased even though $HNO_3$ extractable-Zn was prominent chemical form in paddy soils. The percentage and contents of Zn, extracted by $KNO_3$ for each combination treatment of soil amendments, was decreased but the contents of Cu was not affected. The content of NaOH extractable-Cu was proportionally increased with increase in organic matter content irrespective of the extractants used in this experiment. The contents of Zn and exchangeable K were also increased with increase in organic matter content. However, we could not find any relationship between the extractable forms of Cu and Zn, and CEC, OM. while increase in CEC, contents of cations, and organic matter decreased the content of Cu in brown rice.

본 연구에서는 Ag/ 첨가에 의한 YB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$산화물의 초전도 특성 변화를 조사하였다. Ag가 첨가된 YB $a_{2}$C $u_{3-x}$A $g_{x}$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$ 산화물 시료를 만들고 이 시료들에 대한 X-ray 회절분석, IR흡수 스펙트럼분석, 임계온도(Tc)측정 및 자화(M-H)특성 측정등을 통하여 제조된 시료의 물리적 성질을 조사하였다. X-ray 회절실험 결과로 부터 x.leq.0.03인 경우에는 YB $a_{2}$C $u_{3-x}$A $g_{x}$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$가 단일상의 물질로 존재하고 x가 증가함에 따라 불순물상( $Y_{2}$ $O_{3}$, 순Ag)이 나타남을 알 수 있었다. IR흡수의 실험결과에서 Cu와 치환되어 들어간 Ag의 Ag-O 결합에 의한 흡수 스펙트럼(670$cm^{-1}$ /)이 관측되었다. 실험 결과로 부터 치환된 Ag의 양 x가 증가함에 따라 Tc가 조금씩 낮아지는 경향이 있었으며 자화의 세기 및 임계자장( $H_{C2}$)은 급격히 감소함을 알 수 있었고 또 M-H특성곡선에는 히스테리시스 특성이 나타났다.났다..났다.다.
