The aim of this study was to compare the antioxidant activities and functional contents of Korean conventional and Chinese seed gingers from the Jeollabuk-do Wanju and Chungcheongnam-do Seosan regions. Ginger samples were subjected to steaming treatments for different durations (2-8 h) at 121℃ using an autoclave. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by measuring total polyphenol and flavonoid contents and ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities, while functional ingredient contents were analyzed for gingerols and shogaols. The results showed that Wanju conventional seed ginger (WO-2) had the highest total polyphenol (85.24 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid (98.14 RE/100 g) contents, surpassing that of the control in all steamed groups at 6 h. ABTS radical scavenging activity showed a strong correlation with total polyphenol and flavonoid contents. The control groups indicated that Korean conventional seed ginger had 1.0-1.3 times higher gingerol contents compared to Chinese seed ginger. Furthermore, the content of shogaols, considered major functional ingredients, increased significantly with longer steaming durations, reaching the highest content (1,793 mg/kg) at 8 h, which was 1.0-1.8 times higher in Korean conventional seed ginger than that in Chinese seed ginger. These experiments provide valuable data supporting the excellence of Korean conventional seed ginger in the future.

We have developed photosensitive electrochromic smart windows that does not require any transparent conducting oxide (TCO) substrate. In our previous study, we demonstrated that a flexible film-type device made with a low temperature curing WO₃ sol and TiO₂ sol could show a reversible and rapid switching between colored and bleached state via incorporation of platinum catalysts on the surface of WO₃ layer. However, when these devices were exposed to sunlight over 4 hour, it was confirmed that they did not return to fully bleached state in the darkened state due to their overcoloring process. In this study, we added 4-hydroxy-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPOL) as an additive to the electrolyte of photosensitive electrochromic device to effectively prevent the undesired overcoloring process. The resulting device with TEMPOL indeed did not undergo excessive coloration and showed great reversibility even after being exposed to sunlight for over 4 hours. Various concentrations of TEMPOL were applied to compare changes in the visible transmittance and coloring/bleaching kinetics of devices. In terms of energetic point of view, we proposed a plausible mechanism of TEMPOL to prevent excessive coloration.

Green phosphors $K_2BaW_2O_8:Tb^{3+}$(1.0 mol%) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Differential thermal analysis was applied to trace the reaction processes. Three endothermic values of 95, 706, and $1055^{\circ}C$ correspond to the loss of absorbed water, the release of carbon dioxide, and the beginning of the melting point, respectively. The phase purity of the powders was examined using powder X-ray diffraction(XRD). Two strong excitation bands in the wavelength region of 200-310 nm were found to be due to the ${WO_4}^{2-}$ exciton transition and the 4f-5d transition of $Tb^{3+}$ in $K_2BaW_2O_8$. The excitation spectrum presents several lines in the range of 310-380 nm; these are assigned to the 4f-4f transitions of the $Tb^{3+}$ ion. The strong emission line at around 550 nm, due to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_5$ transition, is observed together with weak lines of the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_J$(J = 3, 4, and 6) transitions. A broad emission band peaking at 530 nm is observed at 10 K, while it disappears at room temperature. The decay times of $Tb^{3+}$ $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_5$ emission are estimated to be 4.8 and 1.4 ms, respectively, at 10 and 295 K; those of the ${WO_4}^{2-}$ exciton emissions are 22 and 0.92 ${\mu}s$ at 10 and 200 K, respectively.

A thin film oxide semiconductor micro gas sensor array which shows only 60 mW of power consumption at an operating temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ has been fabricated using microfabrication and micromachining techniques. Excellent thermal insulation of the membrane is achieved by the use of a double-layer structure of $0.1\mum\; thick\; Si_3N_4 \;and\; 1 \mum$ thick phosphosilicate glass (PSG) prepared by low-pressure chemical-vapor deposition (LPCVD) and atmospheric-pressure chemical-vapor deposition (APCVD), respectively. The sensor array consists of such thin film oxide semiconductor sensing materials as 1 wt.% Pd-doped $SnO_2,\; 6 wt.% A1_2O_3-doped\; ZnO,\; WO_3$/ and ZnO. Baseline resistances of the four sensing materials were found to be stable after the aging for three days at $300^{\circ}C$. The thin film oxide semiconductor micro gas sensor array exhibited resistance changes usable for subsequent data processing upon exposure to various gases and the sensitivity strongly depended on the sensing layer materials.

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reaction of promoter catalysts was investigated in this study. A pure anatase type of TiO$_2$ was used as support. Activation measurement of prepared catalysts was practiced on a fixed reactor packing by the glass bead after filling up catalysts in 1/4 inch stainless tube. The reaction temperature was measured by K-type thermocouple and catalyst was heated by electric furnace. The standard compositions of the simulated flue gas mixture in this study were as follows: NO 1,780ppm, NH$_3$1,780ppm, $O_2$1% and $N_2$ as balance gas. In this study, gas analyzer was used to measure the outgassing gas. Catalyst bed was handled for 1hr at 45$0^{\circ}C$, and the reactivity of the various catalyst was determined in a wide temperature range. Conversion of NH$_3$/NO ratio and of $O_2$ concentration was practiced at 1,1.5 and 2, respectively. The respective space velocity were as follows . 10,000, 15,000 and 17,000 hr-1. It was found that the maximum conversion temperature range was in a 5$0^{\circ}C$. It was also found toi be very sensitive at space velocity, $O_2$ concentration, and NH$_3$/NO ratio. We also noticed that the maximum conversion temperature of (W, Mo, Sn) -V$_2$O$_{5}$/TiO$_2$ catalysts was broad. Specially WO$_3$-V$_2$O$_{5}$TiO$_2$2 catalyst appeared nearly 100% conversion at not only above 30$0^{\circ}C$ ut also below 25$0^{\circ}C$. At over 30$0^{\circ}C$, NH$_3$ oxidation decreased with decrease of surface excess oxygen. In addition, WO$_3$-V$_2$O$_{5}$TiO$_2$ catalyst did not appear to affect space velocity, $O_2$ concentration, and NH$_3$/NO ratio.ratio.

We investigated emission characteristics of tandem organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) with p-type materials as charge generation layer. The tandem OLEDs were fabricated by using $MoO_x$, $WO_x$, C60 and HATCN as p-type material or not using p-type material for charge generation. When HATCN was used as p-type material, it showed high current density at low applied voltage, but increase of efficiency was small because of charge unbalance in emitting layer. In case of tandem OLED not using p-type material, applied voltage increased remarkably because of difficulty of hole injection. In case of $MoO_x$, $WO_x$ or C60 as p-type material, current emission efficiency increased greatly. In particular, current emission efficiency of tandem OLED using $MoO_x$ as p-type material increased up to 3 times than current emission efficiency of single OLED. The Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) 1931 color coordinates were changed by overlapping of 504 nm emission wavelength. As a result, emission efficiency of tandem OLED improved compared with single OLED, but driving voltage also increased by increase of organic layer thickness.

A flat type $NO_2$ micro gas sensor was fabricated by MEMS technology. In order to heat up gas sensing material such as $WO_3$ to a target temperature, a micro hotplate was built on the gas sensor. The temperature distribution of micro gas sensor was analyzed by a CFD program, FLUENT. The results showed that the temperature of silicon wafer base was almost similar to that of the room temperature, which indicates that the heat generated at the micro hotplate heated up effectively the sensing material and its thermal isolation was kept. The uniformity of temperature on the sensing material can be improved by modifying the shape of micro hotplate.

일반적으로 TiO2는 광촉매 작용으로 표면 살균성을 가지며, 친수특성으로 인한 자가세정 능력도 가지고 있다. 또한 지구상에 많이 존재하는 광물로 원료의 가격이 저렴하다는 장점이 있어 산업 전반에 사용되고 있다. 하지만 외부의 환경적 오염으로 인한 광촉매 반응 면적의 감소에 따라 반응효율이 저하되는 단점이 있으며, SiO2는 투명한 유리와 같이 비정질상태가 안정하고 높은 굴절률을 가지며 내구성이 외부환경에 강해 무반사 코팅이나 금속박막의 보호층으로 주로 사용된다. WO3는 높은 굴절률과 가시광선 영역에서의 우수한 투과율을 가지고 있으나 conduction band에서 생성된 광캐리어들이 빠르게 재결합 하여 광분해 효율이 좋지 않기 때문에 흔히 쓰이지 않고 있다. 이러한 박막들의 단점을 보완하기 위해 물리적 구조를 변화시켜 반응 면적을 극대화하기 위해 버퍼층이나 다층박막을 사용하는 등 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 Slide glass에 Plasma etching 하였을때 친수성이 나타나는 특성을 이용하여 대면적 코팅과 표면 경도를 우수하게 만들 수 있는 RF Magnetron sputtering법으로 Slide glass에 Ar Gas 분위기에서 각 파워별 Plasma etching한 후 TiO2, SiO2, WO3 박막을 증착하여 광학적, 구조적 특성을 분석하였다. 광투과율 측정장치(UV-VIS Spectrophotometer)를 사용하여 투과율을 측정한 결과 모든 박막이 가시광 영역에서 80% 이상의 높은 투과율을 나타내었으며, 접촉각 측정결과 100w로 etching한 glass에 TiO2를 증착한 박막에서 가장 낮은 $3^{\circ}$ 이하의 접촉각을 나타내었다. SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) 분석을 통해 표면구조를 관찰한 결과 100w로 etching한 후 TiO2를 증착한 박막이 가장 조밀한 구조를 보였으며, AFM (Atomic Force MicroScope) 분석 결과 100w로 etching한 후 TiO2를 증착한 박막의 표면이 가장 거칠어지는 것을 볼 수 있었는데, 이는 물과 닿는 박막의 유효 표면적의 증가로 인하여 광촉매 효과가 증가하였기 때문에 친수성이 향상된 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 박막은 건물 유리벽과 자동차의 내 외장재 전자기기용 광학 필름에 자가세정, 내반사 코팅소재, 디스플레이 표시장치로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구는 중소기업청에서 지원하는 2011년도 산학연 공동기술개발 지원사업의 연구수행으로 인한 결과물임을 밝힙니다.
