  • The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of Fe and Mn oxides coated granular activated carbons (FMOCGs) for the removal of arsenite and arsenate by oxidation and adsorption mechanisms using surface characterization and batch adsorption experiments. Within four manufactured adsorbents, Fe and Mn contents of FMOCG-1 was the highest (178.12 mg Fe/g and 11.25 mg Mn/g). In kinetic results, As(III) was removed by oxidation and adsorption with FMOCGs. Removal of arsenic by FMOCGs increased as pH value of the solution decreased. The adsorption isotherm results were well fitted with Langmuir isotherm. Adsorption amount of As(V) onto FMOCGs was higher than that of As(III) and the maximum adsorption capacities of FMOCGs for As(III) and As(V) were 1.38~8.44 mg/g and 2.91~9.63 mg/g, respectively.

  • Water-soluble crude polysaccharide (CAP-0) obtained from the Capsici Fructus(the fruits of Capsium annuum L.) showed a potent anti-complementary activity. The anti-complementary activity did not change by pronase digestion of CAP-0, but decreased by the periodate oxidation. CAP-0 was fractionated into four polysaccharide fractions, CAP-1,2,3 and 4, by the addition of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. CAP-1, showing the highest anti-complementary activity, was refractioned by anion-exchange chromatography to give three major fractions(CAP-1-III, IV and V). CAP-1-III was shown to have low anti-complementary activity, but CAP-1-IV and V had high activity. CAP-1-III and IV were purified on Sephadex G-100 to give each two fractions(CAP-1-IIIa and IIIb, CAP-1-IVa and IVb), respectively. From the results of gel filtration and electrophoresis, these four fractions and CAP-1-V were found to be homogeneous polysaccharides. High molecular polysaccharies(M.W. CAP-1-IIIa 70,000, IVa 195,000, V 140,000) showed relatively higher anti-complementary activity than low molecular polysaccharides(CAP-1-IIIb and IVb).

  • Tandem or multijunction solar cells (MJSCs) can convert sunlight into electricity with higher efficiency (η) than single junction solar cells (SJSCs) by dividing the solar irradiance over sub-cells having distinct bandgaps. The efficiencies of various common SJSC materials are close to the edge of their theoretical efficiency and hence there is a tremendous growing interest in utilizing the tandem/multijunction technique. Recently, III-V materials integration on a silicon substrate has been broadly investigated in the development of III-V on Si tandem solar cells. Numerous growth techniques such as heteroepitaxial growth, wafer bonding, and mechanical stacking are crucial for better understanding of high-quality III-V epitaxial layers on Si. As the choice of growth method and substrate selection can significantly impact the quality and performance of the resulting tandem cell and the terminal configuration exhibit a vital role in the overall proficiency. Parallel and Series-connected configurations have been studied, each with its advantage and disadvantages depending on the application and cell configuration. The optimization of both growth mechanisms and terminal configurations is necessary to further improve efficiency and lessen the cost of III-V on Si tandem solar cells. In this review article, we present an overview of the growth mechanisms and terminal configurations with the areas of research that are crucial for the commercialization of III-V on Si tandem solar cells.

  • A noble method for pre-concentration and speciation of ultra trace As (III) and As (V) in urine and whole blood samples based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) has been developed. In this method, As (III) was complexed with ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate at pH = 4 and Then, As (III) was extracted into the ionic liquid (IL). Finally, As (III) was back-extracted from the IL with hydrochloric acid (HCl) and its concentration was determined by flow injection coupled with hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry (FI-HGAAS). Total amount of arsenic was determined by reducing As (V) to As (III) with potassium iodide (KI) and ascorbic acid in HCl solution and then, As (V) was calculated by the subtracting the total arsenic and As (III) content. Under the optimum conditions, for 5-15 mL of blood and urine samples, the detection limit ($3{\sigma}$) and linear range were achieved 5 ng $L^{-1}$ and 0.02-10 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, respectively. The method was applied successfully to the speciation and determination of As (III) and As (V) in biological samples of multiple sclerosis patients with suitable precision results (RSD < 5%). Validation of the methodology was performed by the standard reference material (CRM).

  • The spectroscopic characteristics of Pu (III, IV, V, VI) in the HCl media were investigated by measuring Pu oxidation states using a UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer (400-1200 nm) after adjusting Pu oxidation states with oxidation/reduction reagents. Pu in stock solution was reduced to Pu(III) with $NH_2OH$ HCl, and oxidized to Pu(IV) and Pu(VI) with $NaNO_2$ and $HClO_4$, respectively. Also, Pu(V) was adjusted in the Pu(VI) solution with $NH_2OH$ HCl. The major absorption peaks of Pu (IV) and Pu(III) were measured in the 470 m and 600 nm, respectively. The major absorption peaks of Pu (VI) and Pu(V) were measured in the 830 nm and 1135 nm, respectively. There was not found to be significant changes of UV-Vis absorption spectra for Pu(III), Pu(IV) and Pu(VI) with aging time, except that an unstable Pu(V) immediately reduced to Pu(III).

  • 기존의 태양전지 기술은 기술 장벽이 매우 낮고 대량 생산을 통한 단가 절감하는 구조를 가지고 있어 대규모 자본을 가진 후발 기업에게 잠식되기 쉽다. 그러나, III-V족 화합물 반도체를 이용한 집광형 고효율 태양전지는 기술 장벽이 매우 높은 기술 집약 산업이므로 독자적인 기술을 확보하게 되면 독점적인 시장을 확보 할 수 있어 미래 고부가 가치 산업으로 적합하다. 특히 III-V족 화합물 반도체 태양전지는 III족 원소(In, Ga, Al)와 V족 원소(As, P)의 조합으로 0.3 eV~2.5 eV까지 밴드갭을 가지는 다양한 박막 제조가 가능하여 다양한 흡수 대역을 가지는 태양전지 제조가 가능하기 때문에 다중 접합 태양전지 제작이 가능하다. 또한 III-V 화합물 반도체는 고온 특성이 우수하여 온도 안정성 및 신뢰성이 우수하고, 또한 집광 시 효율이 상승하는 특성이 있어 고배율 집광형 태양광 발전 시스템에 가장 적합하다. Si 태양전지의 경우 100배 이하의 집광에서 사용하나, III-V 화합물 반도체 태양전지의 경우 500~1000배 정도의 고집광이 가능하다. 이러한 특성으로 III-V 화합물 반도체 태양전지 모듈 가격을 낮출 수 있고, 따라서 Si 태양전지 시스템과 비교하여 발전 단가 면에서 경쟁력을 확보할 수 있다. III-V 화합물 반도체는 다양한 밴드갭 에너지를 가지는 박막 제조가 용이하고, 직접천이(direct bandgap) 구조를 가지고 있어 실리콘에 비해 광 흡수율이 높다. 또한 터널정션(tunnel junction)을 이용하면 광학적 손실과 전기적 소실을 최소화 하면서 다양한 밴드갭을 가지는 태양전지를 직렬 연결이 가능하여 한 번의 박막 증착 공정으로 넓은 흡수대역을 가지며 효율이 높은 다중접합 태양전지 제작이 가능하다. 이에 걸맞게 본연구에서는 화학기상증착장치(MOCVD)를 이용하여 InAsP 나노선을 코어 쉘 구조로 성장하여 태양전지를 제작하였다. P-type Dopant로는 Disilane (Si2H6)을 전구체로 사용하였다. 또한 Benzocyclobutene (BCB) 폴리머를 이용하여 Dielectric을 형성하였고 Sputtering 방법으로 증착한 ZnO을 투명 전극으로 사용하여 나노선 끝부분과 실리콘 기판에 메탈 전극을 형성하였다. 이를 통해 제작한 태양전지는 솔라시뮬레이터로 측정했을때 최고 7%에 달하는 변환효율을 나타내었다.

  • The chemical behavior of trivalent lanthanide (Pr(III) and Yb(III)) and 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-3, 5-heptanedione(dipivaloylmethane) complexes was investigated by the use of direct current, differential pulse polarography and cyclic voltammetry. In this study, it was founded that the reduction of trivalent lanthanide complexes was observed by one electron transfer process at Epc = -0. 13 V and -0.80 V of Pr(III), and -0.02 V of Yb(III) vs. Ag-AgCl electrode. Also, it was founded that the treatment of DP and CV to the case of a first-order chemical equilibrium reaction preceding a reversible and irreversible one electron transfer reaction, (a >0. 5) the socalled ErCr electrode process. The equilibrium constant (lnK) obtained, of various solvents, these constant were founded to be increases with decreasing dielectric constant of the solvents. Plots of lnK for these reaction against ln(l/D) for the solvents was fairly straight lines, and the behavior of the heavier lanthanides was decreased equilibrium constant with increasing atomic number.
