II-V 족 화합물 반도체인 황화카드뮴(CdS)은 상온에서 2.42 eV의 밴드갭을 갖는 직접 천이형 물질로서 CdTe 또는 $CuInSe_2$와 같은 박막형 태양전지의 투과층(window layer)으로 널리 사용되고 있다. CdS 박막은 전자빔 증착법(e-beam evaporation), 화학용액증착법(chemical bath deposition), 열분해법(spray pyrolysis), 스퍼터링법(sputtering) 등으로 제작되고 있다. 이 중 스퍼터링법의 경우, 다른 증착법에 비해 조작이 간단하고 넓은 면적에서 균일한 박막을 증착할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 박막두께 조절이 용이하다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 증착된 CdS 박막의 기판온도 및 열처리 온도변화에 따른 구조적 및 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기판은 RCA 기법으로 세정된 Corning Eagle 2000 유리 기판을 사용하였다. 박막 공정은 초기 진공 $1{\times}10^{-6}Torr$ 상태에서 20 sccm의 Ar 가스를 주입하고 100 W의 RF 파워, 7 mTorr의 공정 압력에서 기판 온도를 $200^{\circ}C$부터 $500^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키면서 수행하였다. 증착된 CdS 박막은 질소 분위기의 가열로(furnace)를 이용해 $300-500^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 30분간 열처리되었다. 시료들의 표면 형상은 scanning electron microscope를 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer를 사용하여 400-1,000 nm 파장영역에서의 투과율을 측정하였다. 그리고 X-선 회절분석(X-Ray Diffraction)으로 결정구조를 조사하고 결정립 크기를 산출하였다.

Cyclodextrin is a cyclic oligosaccharid material which shows an ability to incorporate organic guest molecules inside their cavity area. Thus, this ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ treatment on fiber substrates may provide the changed surface characteristics of the substrates such as solubility, chemical reactivity and spectral property. In this context, the aim of this present work is to make a bridge connection using hetero-bi-functional reactive dye between fiber substrates and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$. In addition, the corresponding Berberine inclusion behaviors into the inner cavity of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ was examined. The %exhaustion of Berberine inclusion as a guest molecule within the ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ was measured using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The findings showed that the %exhaustion of Berberine inclusion increased with increasing the prepared dye bridge compound and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ host material.

Transparent and conductive AZO films were deposited on the glass by using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering with intense electron radiation, simultaneously. After deposition, the effect of electron radiation energy on the optical and electrical properties of AZO was investigated. In XRD measurements, the films irradiated with intense electron beam show the larger grain size than that of the films prepared without electron radiation. Sheet resistance was also dependent on the electron radiation energy, while the optical transmittance in visible wavelength region was not affected seriously by electron radiation. X-.ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectrophotometer and four point probes were used to observe the crystallization, optical transmittance and sheet resistance, respectively.

Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) films were deposited on non-alkali glass substrate by DC magnetron sputtering with 3 types of AZO targets (doped with 1.0 wt%, 2.0 wt%, 3.0 wt% $Al_2O_3$). Electrical, optical properties and microstructure of AZO films have been investigated by Hall effect measurements, UV/VIS/NIR spectrophotometer, and XRD, respectively. Crystallinity of AZO films increased with increasing substrate temperature ($T_s$) and doping ratio of Al. Resistivity and optical transmittance in visible light were $8.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ and above 85%, respectively, for the AZO film deposited using AZO target (doped with 3.0 wt% $Al_2O_3$) at $T_s$ of $300^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, transmittance of AZO films in near-infrared region decreased with increasing $T_s$ and doping ratio of Al, which could be attributed to the increase of carrier density.

Increasing global energy demand has resulted in an energy crisis. The dye sensitizer solar cell (DSSC) is an alternative source because of its ability to convert the sun's energy into electrical energy. Our aim was to determine the effect of synthesized Ni(II)-Chlorophyll for enhancing the efficiency of solar cells based DSSC. Complex compound Ni(II)-Chlorophyll was successfully synthesized as a dye sensitizer of $Ni(NO_3)_2.6H_2O$ and chlorophyll ligand with saponification method. Characterization results with spectrophotometer UV-Vis showed that the complex compounds of Ni(II)-Chlorophyll have a maximum wavelength of 295.00 nm, 451.00 and 665.00 nm. The bond between the ligand and metal appears in the vibration Ni-O at wave number $455.2cm^{-1}$. Complex compoun Ni(II)-Chlorophyll has a magnetic moment 7.10 Bohr Magneton (BM). The performance of complex compound Ni(II)-Chlorophyll as a dye sensitizer shows the value of short-circuit current (Jsc) at $3.00mA/cm^2$, open circuit voltage (Voc) at 0.15 V and the efficiency (${\eta}$) 0.20%.

One-dimensional photonic crystals (1D PCs) were fabricated by RF sputtering technique on p-Si (100), and fused quartz substrates. The 1D PCs structures consisted of $TeO_x$ (x=1.42), and $SiO_2$ with the difference refractive index. In order to estimate the effect on a defect level within 1D PCs structures, samples were prepared with both normal, and defect mode. The structural and optical properties were confirmed by Scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Ultraviolet visible near-infrared spectrophotometer (UV-VIS-NIR) respectively. In the case of a 1D PC normal mode without defect layer, it had a photonic band gap (PBG) in the near infrared (NIR) region. In the case of a 1D PC defect mode with defect layer, it had a sharp transmission band owing to a defect level, and moved towards the longer wavelength after exposing He-Cd laser with a wavelength of 325 nm.

Photocatalysis has been applied to decompose the waste and toxic materials produced in daily life and in the global environment. Pure $TiO_2$ (Zn-$TiO_2$-0) and Zn-doped $TiO_2$ (Zn-$TiO_2$-x, x = 3-10 mol %) samples were synthesized using a novel sol-gel and ammonia-evaporation method. The Zn-doped $TiO_2$ samples showed high photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue (MB). The physicochemical properties of the samples were investigated using XRD, SEM, ICP, DLS and BET methods. In addition, the most important measurement of photocatalytic ability was investigated by a UV-vis spectrophotometer. The effects of the mol % of zinc ion doping in $TiO_2$ on photocatalytic activity were studied. Among the mol % Zn ions investigated, the Zn-$TiO_2$-9 sample showed the highest photoreactivity. This sample removed 91.4% of the MB after 4 h, while the pure $TiO_2$ only removed 46.4% of the MB.

정보 기술 시대에 맞춰 광전소자의 연구가 활발해지면서 투명전극으로 사용될 수 있는 Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) 재료에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 TCO의 대표적인 물질인 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)의 경우 In의 가격 상승으로 인해 최근에는 낮은 전도도와 높은 투과도를 가질 수 있는 대체 물질에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서 3.2 eV 의 높은 밴드갭을 갖는 ZnO 는 가시광선 영역에서 높은 투과율을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 Al, Ga을 도핑함으로써 낮은 전도도를 가질 수 있다. 이러한 TCO 재료는 surface texturing을 통하여 optical region 에서 반사를 억제 시킴으로서 빛을 모으는 역할을 하여 태양전지의 효율을 향상 시킬 수 있기 때문에 PV (Photovoltaics) Cell의 anti-reflective coating에 적용 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 pulsed DC magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) 박막을 증착하였고, HCl 0.5 wt %로 wet etching을 통하여 surface texturing을 진행하였다. 결정성은 X-ray diffractometer (XRD)로 분석하였으며, 표면 형상은 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)을 통해 확인하였다. Van der Pauw 방법을 통해 resistivity, carrier concentration, hall mobility 등의 전기적 특성을 분석하였고 UV-Vis spectrophotometer 를 통해 투과도 및 반사도를 측정하였다.

To take an information of substitutent effect and thermodynamic of J-aggregate at thiacarbocyanines, association constant $K_{J}$ , free energy of association G$_{J}$ , enthalpies of J-aggregate H/suib J/ were measured by spectrophotometer according to dependence on concentration of dyes and temperature of aqueous MeOH and KCl salted-out system. With increase of concentration of dyes exhibited equilibria shift toward the aggregate. Phenyl meso substituted thiacarbycyanine, DyeIII, resulted in higher $K_{j}$ and G$_{J}$ values than DyeI and DyeII. To easily make J-aggregate of thiacarbocyanine, meso substutituene group need to be a flat structure, which will make a park as well as lain tiles.
