To synthesize ZnO colloidal solution by a sol-gel process, zinc acetate ($C_{4}H_{6}O_{4}Zn{\cdot}2H_{2}O{\cdot}0.2\;mol$) and lithium hydroxide ($LiOH{\cdot}H_{2}O{\cdot}0.14\;mol$) in the ethanol were added to the solution containing a dispersing agent, hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC). The nanosize and physical shape of the synthesized ZnO particles were determined by HPC acting as the dispersing agent. Nanosized ZnO particles were also obtained by a precipitation method based on zinc-2-ethylhexagonate. The precipitates were characterized by DLS, XRD, FE-SEM, and UV-vis. As the results, the ZnO colloids tend to self-assemble into a well-ordered hexagonal close-packed structure. The ZnO nanoparticles have an average diameter of nearly 40 nm with a narrow size distribution.

Polymerizable discotic liquid crystals containing diacetylene and acryloyl groups were formed through hydrogen bonding between phloroglucinol core and polymerizable pyridine derivatives, and their photopolymerization behavior was investigated. The discotic complexes exhibited discotic columnar and rectangular columnar mesophases depending on the number of aromatic rings. Photopolymerization of the discotic complexes was carried out by UV irradiation in the liquid crystalline state. IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy affirmed that diacetylene and acryloyl groups were selectively Polymerized, and that crosslinked polymers containing short conjugated diacetylene oligomers were produced by 1,4-addition. X-ray diffraction experiment showed that the columnar order in the discotic complex containing phenyl-pyridine moiety was maintained after photopolymerization, and that the rectangular columnar order in he discotic Complex with biphenyl units was changed to the lamellar order.

갈륨비소(GaAs)는 수직공진표면방출레이저, 발광다이오드, 태양전지 등과 같은 광전소자에 널리 사용되는 물질이다. 그러나 높은 굴절률을 갖는 갈륨비소는 표면에서 30% 이상의 반사율을 갖기 때문에 광손실로 인해 소자의 성능이 저하된다. 따라서 표면 Fresnel 반사율을 낮출 수 있는 효율적인 반사방지막이 필요하다. 최근, 열적 불일치, 물질 선택, 접착력 저하의 단점을 가지고 있는 기존 다중박막을 대체하는 생체모방 서브파장 나노구조가 활발히 연구되고 있다. 이러한 구조는 공기(air)부터 갈륨비소까지 선형적인 유효굴절률 분포를 갖는 유효 단일박막과도 같기 때문에 소자 표면에서의 광손실을 줄일 수 있다. 더욱이, 자연계의 나방의 각막과 나비의 눈의 구조 형태를 모방한 반도체 생체모방 복합 눈(compound eye)은, 즉 마이크로 렌즈모양과 서브파장 나노격자구조의 복합적 형태, 표면에서 우수한 반사방지 특성을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는, 포토리소그래피와 유도결합플라즈마 식각법을 이용하여 GaAs 기판 표면에 마이크로 렌즈 모양의 패턴을 형성한 후, 스핀코팅을 이용하여 나노 크기를 갖는 실리카 구를 도포하여 건식 식각함으로써 복합 눈 구조를 갖는 갈륨비소 반사방지막을 제작하였다. 제작된 샘플의 표면 및 식각 형상은 전자현미경(scanning electron microscope)을 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer를 사용하여 반사율을 측정하였다.

본 연구에서는 라디오파 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법을 사용하여 증착 온도를 변화시켜면서 Eu 이온이 도핑된 MgMoO4 적색 형광체 박막을 사파이어 기판 상부에 성장하였다. 타겟은 고상반응법을 사용하여 직접 제작하였다. 형광체 박막의 구조, 표면, 광학적 특성은 X-선 회절장치, 주사전자현미경, 투과도 및 광여기발광 측정장치를 사용하여 측정하였다, 증착 온도는 100, 200, 300, $400^{\circ}C$이었으며, 증착 후 $870^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 공정을 실행하였다. 이와 더불어, $400^{\circ}C$에서 증착한 박막을 다양한 온도 $770-920^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 수행하여 각각의 특성을 분석하였다. 증착 온도 $200^{\circ}C$에서 성장한 박막의 경우에 614 nm에 피크를 갖는 주 적색 발광 피크가 관측되었으며, 열처리 온도를 달리한 박막의 경우에는 $920^{\circ}C$에서 가장 강한 발광 피크가 나타났다. UV-VIS 분광광도계를 사용하여 박막의 투과도와 흡광도를 측정하였으며, Tauc의 모델을 사용하여 밴드갭 에너지를 계산하였다. 증착 온도 변화에 따라 성장된 박막의 투과도는 평균 82% 이상 이었으며 밴드갭 에너지는 4.1 eV이었다. 박막의 결정 구조는 단사정계임을 확인하였다. 특히, 결정 입자, 발광 피크의 세기와 투과도의 상관 관계를 조사하였다.

Nanocomposite of Au doped ZrO$_2$ films was prepared, which could be used as non-linear optic materials, selective absorption and transmission films. After heat treatment of prepared thin film by dip-coating method, the characteristics were investigated by X-ray diffraction, UV-VIS Spectrometer, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Film thickness was about 150 nm, the Au particle size was 15~35 nm. The thin film had a smooth surface roughness about 1.06 nm. Nonlinearity optics was found that films showed absorption peak at 600~650 nm visible region by plasma resonance of Au metal particles.

The simultaneous determination of platyphylloside, aceroside and betulin was established for the quality control of Betula platyphylla bark using a high performance liquid chromatography and diode-array UV/Vis detector (HPLC-DAD). Separation and quantification were successfully achieved with a INNO C18 column ($5{\mu}m$, 4.6 mm $I.D.{\times}150mm$) by gradient elution of a mixture of methanol and water at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. Validation of the developed method was performed by various factor such as linearity, specificity, precision, accuracy, system suitability and stability. This method was successfully applied to the determination of contents of platyphylloside, aceroside VIII and betulin in three batches of Betula platyphylla bark extract. These results suggest that the developed HPLC method is simple, effective and could be utilized as a quality control method for Betula platyphylla bark products.

In veterinary medicine amitraz has been used as an insecticide to eliminates mites, lice, and ticks in dogs, cats, goats, swine and cattle. The objective of present study was to developed an analytical method using one-step extraction and determination of the amitraz in veterinary drugs by liquid chromatography (LC). The amitraz was analyzed by LC equipped with Waters XTerra RP18 ($4.8{\times}250mm;\;5{\mu}m;\;Waters,\;USA$) analytical column, using 75% acetonitrile (acetonitrile/D.W; 75/25) at 1.0 ml/ min. The UV-VIS detection of amitraz was made at 290 nm. Calibration graphs were linear with very good correlation coefficients ($r^2>0.9999$) from $80{\sim}120{\mu}g/ml$. The limit of detection was $0.09{\mu}g/ml $ and limit of quantification was $0.27{\mu}g/ml $. The method showed good intra-day precision (CV 0.05~0.09%) and inter-day precision (CV 0.06~0.18%).

Tin oxide thin films were deposited by rf reactive sputtering and annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in vacuum. To minimize the influence such as reduction, oxidation, and doping on tin oxide thin films during annealing, a vacuum ambient annealing was adopted. The structural, optical, and electrical properties of tin oxide thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscope, UV-Vis spectrometer, and Hall effect measurements. After vacuum annealing, the grain size of all thin films was slightly increased and the roughness ($R_a$) was improved, however irregular and coalesced shapes were observed from the most of the films. These irregular and coalesced crystal shapes and the possible elimination of intrinsic defects might have caused a decrease in both carrier concentration and mobility, which degrades electrical conductivity.

Cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanoparticles with the diameter of about 3.4nm have been synthesized from the mixed aqueous solution of distilled water and diethanolamine at room temperature. The cadmium chloride ($CdCl_2$), sodium selenosulfate ($Na_2SeSO_3$) were used as the cadmium and selenium source, respectively. The properties of CdSe nanoparticles were characterized by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis measurements. CdSe nanoparticles were analyzed to be cubic phase with the absorption excition peaks between 540 and 600 nm. CdSe nanoparticles also showed red-shifted excition peaks with increasing the sonication time. This paper mainly presents the sonication effects on the formation of CdSe nanoparticles prepared from the mixed aqueous solution of distilled water and diethanolamine.
