The counter electrode widely used in DSCs (Dye-sensitized Solar Cells) is constructed of conducting glass substrates coated with Pt films, where the platium acts as a catalyst. Pt counter electrodes in DSCs are one important component. It is expected that characteristics of Pt electrodes strongly depend on fabrication process and its surface condition. In this study, Pt counter electrode surface of DSC is deposited by reactive RF magnetron sputtering under the conditions of Ar 5mtorr, RF power of 120w and substrate temperature of $100^{\circ}C$. Surface morphology of Pt electrodes was investigated by FE-SEM and AFM. And this paper shows our recent results and technology to fabricate the new designed cell with Pt electrodes deposited by sputtering method. We have achieved fill factor 65% and photoelectric conversion efficiency around 2.6% as the best results of new designed DSCs structure.

R.f. magnetron sputtering법에 의해 $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ 박막을 $Pt/SiO_2$/Si p-tyPp (100) 기판 위에 제조하였다. 제조된 박막을 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 후 증착 조건에 따라 미세구조와 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리된 박막은 (006), (111), (200) 및 이차상인 BiPt 피크가 XRD 분석 결과 나타났으며, 가스 압력의 감소와 기판 온도의 증가에 따라 결정입자는 성장하였다. 50mtorr, $100^{\circ}C$에서 증착 후 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 박막의 두께는 200nm이었다. 이 박막의 잔류분극과 항전계 값은 각각 20.07 $\mu$C/$\textrm {cm}^2$, 79kV/cm이었다.

Smart catalyst design though novel catalyst preparation methods can improve catalytic activity of transition metals on reducible oxide supports such as titania by enhancement of metal oxide interface effects. In this work, we investigated Pt nanoparticles/titania catalysts under CO oxidation reaction by using novel preparation methods in order to enhance its catalytic activity by optimizing metal oxide interface. Arc plasma deposition (APD) and metal impregnation techniques are employed to achieve Pt metal deposition on titania supports which are prepared by multi-target sputtering and Sol-gel techniques. In order to tailor metal-support interface for catalytic CO oxidation reaction, Pt nanoparticles and thin films are deposited in varying surface coverages on sputtered titania films using APD. To assess the role of oxide support at the interface, APD-Pt is deposited on sputtered and Sol-gel prepared titania films. Lastly, characteristics of APD-Pt process are compared with Pt impregnation technique. Our results show that activity of Pt nanoparticles is improved when supported over Sol-Gel prepared titania than sputtered titania film. It is suggested that this enhanced activity can be partly ascribed to a very rough titania surface with the higher free metal surface area and higher number of sites at the interface between the metal and the support. Also, APD-Pt shows superior catalytic activity under CO oxidation as compared to Pt impregnation on sputtered titania support. XPS results show that bulk oxide is formed on Pt when deposited through impregnation and has higher proportion of oxidized Pt in the form of $Pt^{2+/4+}$ oxidation states than Pt metal. APD-Pt shows, however, mild oxidation with large proportion of active Pt metal. APD-Pt also shows trend of increasing CO oxidation activity with number of shots. The activity continues to increase with surface coverage beyond 100%, thus suggesting a very rough and porous Pt films with higher active surface metal sites due to an increased surface area available for the reactant CO and $O_2$ molecules. The results suggest a novel approach for systematic investigation into metal oxide interface by rational catalysts design which can be extended to other metal-support systems in the future.

Carbon monoxide-sensing behavior of Pt-SiC Schottky diodes. fabricated on the same SiC substrate have been systematically compared and analyzed as a function of carbon monoxide concentrati on and temperature by I-V and ${\Delta}I$-t methods under steady-state and transient condition. Adsorption activation energies of Carbon monoxide on the surface of Pt-SiC Schottky diodes is investigated in a high temperature range ($100{\sim}500^{\circ}C$). The optimal temperature for behavior sensing is $300^{\circ}C$ and saturation concentration is 200 ppm.

Sputter deposition on a Pt counter electrode was studied using RF plasma as the improvement of conversion efficiency for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC). The effects of the sputtering thickness and incident angle on a Pt counter electrode for DSC was scrutinized. We conducted the experiment to get the optimal sputtering time for the performance of the DSC. Under the sputtering time condition of 120 seconds, we varied the incident angles of substrate from $0^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}$. Under standard test condition (AM 1.5, 100mW/$cm^2$), we obtained the maximum efficiency of 4.61% at the incident angle of $40^{\circ}$ with an active cell area of $1cm^2$.

This paper describes the preparation of Pt-and $TiO_2$-doped $Nb_2O_5$ thin film by Ion-Beam-Enhanced Deposition. Platinum and titanium doping, and Nb2O5 deposition were carried out in situ. The dependence of oxygen sensing properties on the amounts of Pt and Ti dopant in the $Nb_2O_5$ film was investigated. There were the highist sensitivity, the lowest temperature coefficient and the shortest responce time at doping of 5 mol% $TiO_2$ and 0.3 mol%Pt

We prepared a novel electrochemical gas sensor (EG sensor) based on interdigitated electrode (IDE) coated with vinyl ionic liquids (ILs) as electrolyte and Pt-Ru-Mo/MWNT electrocatalysts for occurring redox-active of CNCl gas. The vinyl ILs such as 1-butyl-3-(vinylbenzyl)imidazolium chloride, $[BVBI]^+Cl^-$, and 3-hexyl-1-vinylimidazolium bromide, $[HVI]^+Br^-$, were synthesized by $SN_2$ reaction in order to use electrolyte. The Pt-Ru-Mo/MWNT electrocatalysts were also prepared by one-step radiation-induced reduction of metal ions in the presence of MWNTs as supports. The fabricated EG sensor with vinyl ILs electrolyte was evaluated through optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The prepared EG sensor is clearly detected over 2.0 ppm CNCl gas and is exhibited a liner relationship between current and concentration over a region of 10-100 ppm.

The photocatalytic alanine and hydrogen production reaction were studied by using CdS as a semiconductor photocatalysts. The rate of alanine and hydrogen production depends strongly on the temperature in heat treatment of CdS powder. In particular, the rate of alanine production, which was observed using Pt/CdS(A)-(CdS from Mitsuwa), was increased about six times than that of using Pt/CdS(B)-(CdS from Furruchi) under the same heat treatment condition at 500$^{\circ}$C. And the photocatalytic activity for alanine production using bare CdS(A) or Pt/CdS(A) was almost same with increasing temperature in heat treatment in the range of 100-600$^{\circ}$C. From X-ray diffraction data and photoluminescence spectrum, we conclude that the crystal structure changes of CdS(A) or strong interaction at interface of Pt and CdS contribute to increasing the rate of alanine and hydrogen production reaction.

We have examined the functional role of central dopaminergic processes on the behavioral pharmacological effects induced by psychotropics and red ginseng saponins of normal rats and compared with that of brain damaged rats. Desipramine and clomipramine produced, a significant depression of the locomotor activity in normal rats, but in brain damaged rats, they did not have any effect throughout the experimental period of 4 hours. Total saponin (50~200 mg/kg), PT (25~50 mg/kg), PD (25~50 mg/kg), $Rg_1$(12.5~25 mg/kg), $Rb_1$ (12.5~50 mg/kg) did not change, and high concentrations of PT (100 mg/kg), PD (100 mg/kg) and $Rg_1$ (50 mg/kg) showed a significant decrease in the locomotor activity of one hour after administration but total saponin (100 mg/kg), PD (25~50 mg/kg), Rgl (12.5 mg/kg), $Rb_1$ (12.5 mg/kg) markedly increased the locomotor activity of four hour after administration in normal rats. On the other hand, total saponin (50 mg/kg), PT (100 mg/kg) and PD (100 mg/kg) Produced a prominent stimulation of the locomotor activity in brain damaged rats. These results suggest that the inhibition of the locomotor activity induced by antidepressants was not affected by the sensitivity of cerebral DA system, whereas red ginseng saponin showed antifatigue effect and also the stimulation of the locomotor activity induced by red ginseng saponin was mediated by the inhibition of cerebral DA system. These psychotropic action of red ginseng saponins could be responsible for the beneficial effects on conditions of fatigue and decreased alertness.
