기존의 이온성 고분자-금속 복합체(IPMC)는 백금(Pt)전극을 이온성 전기활성 고분자(Ionic electroactive polymer)인 나피온에 무전해 도금으로 만들어졌다. 본 연구는 백금전극을 그래핀으로 대체하여 투명 이온성 고분자-그래핀 복합체(IPGC)를 제작하였다. 그래핀은 근적외선 화학기상증착법(NIR-CVD)으로 전이금속 (Cu, Ni) 위에 탄화수소 가스(CH4)를 이용하여 성장하였다. 전이 금속위에 성장된 그래핀을 나피온 양쪽면에 van der Waals 결합력을 이용하는 습식 전이공정으로 전극을 형성하였다. IPGC는 면 저항(4-point probe), 투과도(UV/Vis spectrometer) 및 라만 분광법(Micro Raman spectroscopy)의 측정으로 그래핀 전극의 특성평가를 하였고, 전계방사 주사전자현미경(Field Emisson Scanning Electron Microscope; FE-SEM)을 사용하여 IPGC의 구조적 특성을 확인하였다. 제작된 IPGC의 성능은 백금전극을 이용한 IPMC의 변위(displacement), 힘(force), 작동 주파수(Operating frequency) 분석을 통해 비교 평가하였다.

Glass was fabricated by using refused coal ore obtained from Dogye coal mine in Samchuk. We additionally used soda ash and calcium carbonate as raw materials to make a glass with the chemical composition of soda-lime glass. And the properties of glass were measured when limestone was used as natural raw materials instead of calcium carbonate as chemical raw materials. Transparent glass was fabricated by melting raw materials at $1550^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr in an electrical furnace. The various kinds of glass samples were fabricated according to the kinds of refused coal ore and glass cullet. The optical properties of transmittance and color chromaticity were measured by UV/VIS/NIR spectrometer and the thermal properties of thermal expansion coefficient and softening point were measured. Transparent glass with the transmittance of over 70% in visible range was fabricated by using normal refused coal ore and black colored glass with the transmittance of 0~35% was fabricated by using shel1 type refused coal ore. Therefore, it is concluded that refused coal ore can be used for raw materials to manufacture secondary glass products such as a glass tile and foamed glass panel for construction material.

Natural gardenia and Japanese pagoda tree have been known as them of the most widely used yellow vegetable dyes. Cotton and silk fabrics(KS K 0905) were chosen as specimens. Those were dyed with natural gardenia and Japanese pagoda tree. The conditions of dyeing were varied according to the kinds of mordants, using mordants or not and the concentrations of the natural dyes. Sn, Al, Fe and Cu were chosen for the mordants. 5%(owf), 10%(owf), 15%(owf) and 20%(owf) were used as for the concentration of the natural dyes. The color differences were measured by the Spectrometer(UV-VIS-NIR) before and after dyeing. The results are as follows: 1. Deeper colors were proportionately shown up to the concentration of the natural dye. 2. Silk was shown the higher dye affinity than the cotton at the same concentration of the dye. 3. The color difference between the Sn-mordanted specimens and the Al-mordanted specimens were significant. When the concentration of the dye increased, the colors got darker, specially in b* value. 4. The color difference between the Fe-mordanted specimens and the Cu-mordanted specimens were significant in L* value and b* value. 5. The deeper or lighter yellow were controllable under the concentration of the natural dye and the mordants. 6. The most effective and the economic concentration of the natural dye was 10% owf through the experiments.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) has drawn much interest as a potential transparent conducting oxide (TCO) for applying to solar cell and front electrode of electro-luminescent devices. For the enhancement of electrical property of TCOs, dopant introduction and hybridization with conductive nanoparticles have been investigated. In this work, ZnO films were formed on glass substrate by using photochemical solution deposition of Ag nanoparticles dispersed or various metal (Ag, Cd, In, or Sn) contained photosensitive ZnO solutions. The usage of photosensitive solution permits us to obtain a micron-sized direct patterning of ZnO film without using conventional dry etching procedure. The structural, optical, and electrical characteristics of ZnO films with the introduction of metal dopants with/without Ag nanoparticles have been investigated to check whether there is a combined effect between metal dopants and Ag nanoparticles on the characteristics of ZnO film. The phase formation and crystallinity of ZnO film were monitored with X-ray diffractometer. The optical transmittance measurement was carried out using UV-VIS-NIR spectrometer and the electrical properties such as sheet resistance and conductivity were observed by using four-point probe.

Black cobalt solar selective coatings were prepared by thermal oxidation of electroplated cobalt metal on copper and nickel substrates. The optical properties and structure of the black cobalt selective coating for solar energy utilizations were characterized by glow discharge spectrometry (GDS), ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-VIS-NIR) spectrometer, atom force microscopy(AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The optical properties of optimum black cobalt selective coating prepared on copper substrate were a solar absorptance of 0.82 and a thermal emittance of 0.01. From the GDS depth profile analysis of these coatings, the concentration of cobalt particles near the interface was higher than at the surface, but oxygen concentration at the surface was higher than at the interface. These results suggest that the selective absorption was dominated by this chemical composition variation in the coating. The surface of this film exhibited morphology with root-mean-square(rms) roughness of about 144.3nm. XPS measurements data showed that several phases of Co coexist($Co_3O_4$,CoO) in the film.

This study was performed to develop a prediction model of sugar content for strawberry. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been prevailed for on-line and portable applications for non-invasive quality assessment of intact fruit. This work presents effects of illumination method and coating of reflection surface of light source on prediction result of sugar content. Effect of preprocessing methods was also examined. A low-cost commercially available VIS/NIR spectrometer was used for estimation of total soluble solids content (Brix). To predict sugar contents of strawberry, the best results were obtained with the spectrum data measured under intensive illuminations at three locations induced from the light source with fiber optic bundles. Gold coating of reflection surface of light source lamp gave favorable effect to prediction result. The best results in validation of PLSR model were $r_{SEP}$ = 0.891 and SEP = 0.443 Brix under OSC preprocessing and those of PCR were $r_{SEP}$ = 0.845, SEP $r_{SEP}$= 0.520 Brix, under no preprocessing.

Carbon spheres (CS) were fabricated using glucose as a precursor in the hydrothermal method. Hollow TiO₂ (H-TiO₂) spheres with 200 nm, 500 nm, and 1,200 nm were synthesized by CS/TiO₂ core-shell particles via a sol-gel and calcination method. H-TiO₂ spheres with nano and micron sizes were characterized using FE-SEM, HR-TEM, and X-ray diffraction. The CIE color coordinate, solar reflectance, and heat shield temperatures of H-TiO₂/polyacrylate (PA) composite film were investigated using a UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer and homemade heat insulation temperature measuring device. H-TiO₂/PA composites exhibit excellent thermal insulation since the hollow structure filled with dry air has low thermal conductivity and near infrared light reflecting performance. The thermal insulation increased with increasing the hollow sphere (HS) size on H-TiO₂/PA composites. The PA composite film mixed with H-TiO₂ filled with 1200 nm HS reduced the heat shield temperature by 26 ℃ compared to that of the transparent glass counterpart.

Glass was fabricated using refused coal ore obtained from the Dogye coal mine in Samcheok. We additionally used soda ash and calcium carbonate to make a glass with the chemical composition of soda-lime glass, and we also used white, brown, and green glass cullet to make various kinds of colored glass. Transparent glass was fabricated by melting batch materials including refused coal ore at $1550^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr in an electrical furnace. The light transmittance and color chromaticity were measured by a UV/VIS/NIR spectrometer. Transparent glass with a light transmittance of over 80% was fabricated using normal refused coal ore and white glass cullet. Various kinds of colored glass with a light transmittance of 30-80% were fabricated using refused coal ore and brown or green glass cullet. The light transmittance of the mixed color glass samples, fabricated using normal refused coal ore and brown glass cullet and green glass cullet, indicated 30-47%, a relatively low value, in the condition of a cullet ratio of 20-50%. The characteristics of the color chromaticity of the glass samples were indicated in a chromaticity diagram by x-coordinates, y-coordinates, Y (lightness). The values of x-coordinates and y-coordinates were moved with a regular directional property according to the kind and amount of glass cullet. Therefore, we concluded that refused coal ore can be used for raw materials of color glass products like art glass and glass tile.

Objective of this study was to investigate effects of pre-processing method and number of sampling leaves on stability of the reflectance measurement for Chinese cabbage and kale leaves. Chinese cabbage and kale were transplanted and cultivated in a plant factory. Leaf samples of the kale and cabbage were collected at 4 weeks after transplanting of the seedlings. Spectra data were collected with an UV/VIS/NIR spectrometer in the wavelength region from 190 to 1130 nm. All leaves (mature and young leaves) were measured on 9 and 12 points in the blade part in the upper area for kale and cabbage leaves, respectively. To reduce the spectral noise, the raw spectral data were preprocessed by different methods: i) moving average, ii) Savitzky-Golay filter, iii) local regression using weighted linear least squares and a $1^{st}$ degree polynomial model (lowess), iv) local regression using weighted linear least squares and a $2^{nd}$ degree polynomial model (loess), v) a robust version of 'lowess', vi) a robust version of 'loess', with 7, 11, 15 smoothing points. Effects of number of sampling leaves were investigated by reflectance difference (RD) and cross-correlation (CC) methods. Results indicated that the contribution of the spectral data collected at 4 sampling leaves were good for both of the crops for reflectance measurement that does not change stability of measurement much. Furthermore, moving average method with 11 smoothing points was believed to provide reliable pre-processed data for further analysis.

최근 화석연료의 고갈과 환경 보전 및 에너지 절약에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 화석연료의 소비를 최소화하고 실내조건을 쾌적하게 유지하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 국내의 경우 전체 에너지 소비의 30%이상을 차지하고 있는 건물부문에서의 에너지 소비를 줄이기 위한 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있으며 이에 따른 에너지절약 소재개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 1975년 이후 여러 차례에 걸친 단열강화 조치를 통해 건물에서의 에너지 소모를 줄이고 있었으나 건물의 외벽에 대한 사항으로 한정되어있었고, 또한 건물의 창 면적이 증가함에 따라 창을 통한 열손실량과 열획득량이 더욱 증가하게 되었다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 열반사유리에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 열반사유리는 근적외선(열선)영역의 빛을 반사시켜 실내의 열손실량 및 외부에서의 열획득량을 감소시켜 에너지의 소비를 줄일 수 있는 유리을 말한다. 이러한 열반사유리은 fresnel 방정식을 통해 빛의 파장대에 따른 반사율 및 투과도를 예측할 수 있는데, 다층박막구조인 Oxide-Metal-Oxide(OMO)구조는 Oxide의 높은 굴절률과 Metal의 낮은 굴절률을 통해 가시광영역대의 높은 투과도와 근적외선 영역의 높은 반사율을 얻을 수 있다. 또한 Metal층을 삽입함으로서 flexible한 코팅이 가능하고, 높은 carrier density와 mobility로 표면 플라즈몬 공명을 통해 특정 파장대의 반사율을 높일 수 있으므로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. $TiO_2$는 고굴절률 및 낮은 광흡수성의 특성을 가지는 산화물반도체로 기존의 $In_2O_3$계 산화물에 비해 값이 싸고 높은 안정성과 광촉매특성을 보이므로 외부에 노출된 환경에 적합한 재료이다. Ag는 저굴절률과 낮은 광흡수성을 가지는 재료로 금속층에 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 fresnel 방정식을 통해 반사도 및 투과도를 예측하고 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 다층박막을 열선인 적외선 영역에서의 반사율 및 반사 효율을 평가하였다. Index-matching 시뮬레이션을 통해 $TiO_2/Ag/TiO_2$ 다층박막의 투과도와 반사도를 이론적으로 검토하였다. 시뮬레이션 프로그램은 Macleod프로그램을 이용하였고 재료 각각의 굴절률은 Ellipsometry를 이용하여 측정하였다. 두께 40 nm 와 8 ~ 16 nm를 가지는 $TiO_2$층과 Ag층을 각각 RF/DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 Glass기판 위에 증착하였다. 직경 3 in 의 $TiO_2$, Ag 소결체 타깃을 이용하였고 스퍼터링 파워는 각각 200 W, 50 W로 설정하였고, 스퍼터링 가스는 Ar가스의 유량을 20 sccm으로 설정하였다. 작업압력은 모두 1 Pa로 설정하였고 타깃 표면의 불순물 및 이물질 제거를 위해 Pre-sputtering을 10분 진행하였다. 박막의 두께는 reflectometer와 Alphastep을 이용하여 측정하였고 Hall effect measurement를 이용하여 비저항, carrier density, mobility등 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. 또한 UV-VIS spectrometer와 USPM-RU-W NIR Micro-Spectrophotometer를 통해 광학적 특성을 측정하였고 계산 값과 비교분석하였다. 또한 열반사 특성을 평가하기 위해 직접 set-up한 장비를 이용하였다. 단열 박스에 샘플을 장착해 적외선 램프를 조사하였을 때의 열 반사효율을 평가하였고, IR Camera를 이용하여 단열 박스 내부의 온도 변화를 관찰하였다.
