A various structural materials are used in construction projects such as a stone, concrete, steel materials. Between of them, concrete are used widely. The compressive strength of concrete is high, and its maintenance and management is comparatively easy. The R.C Building will be superannuated as time passes. This program is generated by propagation of cracks. In order to manage such cracks, time and efforts, expense, etc. are required. In this study, glass sensors were embedding in a model beam and column and leakage of fluorescence and adhesive material was investigated. Further, currents in glass pipe were observed to find the leakage of liquid in glass pipes. Progressive cracks generated by cause the fracture of glass pipes. Therefore, the liquid become to flow and electric current stops, and the cracked part of the member can be found easily. Moreover, the adhesive delays progressive cracking system that responds in air, and the life of a structure can be made to extend. The purpose of this research is to develop of low price sensors that can perform of self-diagnosis in addition to ability of concrete repair concrete to damage.

A luminescent porous silicon sensor, whose surface was passivated with organic molecule via hydrosilylation under various conditions, has been researched to measure the photoluminescence (PL) stability of porous silicon (PSi). Photoluminescent PSi were synthesized by an electrochemical etching of n-type silicon wafer under the illumination with a 300 W tungsten filament bulb during the etching process. The PL of PSi displayed at 650 nm, which is due to the quantum confinement of silicon quantum dots in the PSi. To stabilized the photoluminescence of PSi, the hydrosilylation of PSi with silole molecule containg vinyl group was performed. Surface morphologies of fresh PSi and surface-modified PSi were obtained with a cold FE-SEM. Optical characterization of red photoluminescent silicon quantum dots was investigated by UV-vis and fluorescence spectrometer.

Purpose: Phosphorus is an essential element for water quality control. Excessive amounts of phosphorus causes algal bloom in water, which leads to eutrophication and a decline in water quality. It is necessary to maintain the optimum amount of phosphorus present. During the last decades, various studies have been conducted to determine phosphorus content in water. In this study, we present a comprehensive overview of colorimetric, electrochemical, fluorescence, microfluidic, and remote sensing technologies for the measurement of phosphorus in water, along with their working principles and limitations. Results: The colorimetric techniques determine the concentration of phosphorus through the use of color-generating reagents. This is specific to a single chemical species and inexpensive to use. The electrochemical techniques operate by using a reaction of the analyte of interest to generate an electrical signal that is proportional to the sample analyte concentration. They show a good linear output, good repeatability, and a high detection capacity. The fluorescence technique is a kind of spectroscopic analysis method. The particles in the sample are excited by irradiation at a specific wavelength, emitting radiation of a different wavelength. It is possible to use this for quantitative and qualitative analysis of the target analyte. The microfluidic techniques incorporate several features to control chemical reactions in a micro device of low sample volume and reagent consumption. They are cheap and rapid methods for the detection of phosphorus in water. The remote sensing technique analyzes the sample for the target analyte using an optical technique, but without direct contact. It can cover a wider area than the other techniques mentioned in this review. Conclusion: It is concluded that the sensing technologies reviewed in this study are promising for rapid detection of phosphorus in water. The measurement range and sensitivity of the sensors have been greatly improved recently.

최근 오염물질 수위의 급격한 상승세와 더불어 가속화되는 자연환경 파괴로 인해 다양한 환경 속에 쌓이는 오염물질의 검출 및 모니터링은 현대 사회의 중요한 미션 중 하나로 자리 잡았다. 본 논문에는 멤브레인 기반의 광학 센서를 활용한 미량 오염물질 검출에 대한 최근 연구 동향이 요약되어 있다. 본 논문에 포함된 연구들은 섬유소로 이루어진 멤브레인을 검출을 위한 플랫폼으로 사용하였으며, 금속 나노 입자나 형광단을 색 변화 검출을 위해 이용하였다. 제조된 광학 센서들은 모두 적절하거나 특출한 수준의 감도를 보였고, 대부분의 센서에서 타겟 물질이 아닌 이온이나 물질에는 반응하지 않는 정확성 또한 확인되었다. 검출 플랫폼으로 이용된 섬유소 멤브레인의 물리적, 화학적 특성들은 멤브레인 합성 방법이나 색 변화를 위한 광학 물질 등을 바꾸는 방법을 통해 각 연구의 목적에 맞추어 최적화될 수 있었다. 또한, 멤브레인을 기반으로 하여 제조된 센서들은 운반이 편리하고 기계적 성질이 강해 현장에서 바로 오염물질을 검출할 수도 있다는 사실이 제시되었다. 이러한 장점 덕분에 멤브레인 기반 센서들은 식용수에서 검출된 중금속의 정량화와 자연 수질환경에서 발견되는 미량 중금속 및 유독성 항생제의 감지 등 다양한 목적을 위해 활용될 수 있었다. 몇몇의 연구에서 제조된 센서들은 항균성이나 재활용성 또한 나타내었다. 대부분의 센서들이 타겟 물질을 감지한 후 육안으로도 식별 가능한 색 변화를 보였으나, 본 논문에 포함된 많은 연구들은 형광 발산, UV-vis 분광학, RGB 색 강도 차이 등을 비교 분석한 더 상세한 검출 결과를 제시하였다.

CdSe 기반 나노결정의 구리이온에 의한 형광 소광 특성 및 아연이온에 의한 형광 회복 특성을 관찰하였다. 구리이온이 첨가되었을 경우, CdSe 양자점에서는 매우 빠르고 급격한 형광 소광 특성을 보이는 반면에 CdSe 나노라드의 경우에서는 형광이 서서히 소광되는 특성을 보인다. 구리이온으로 형광을 소광시킨 CdSe/CdS(핵/껍질) 양자점에 아연이온이 첨가되면 소광된 양자점의 형광이 회복된다. 용액 내 1 μM의 아연농도에서 양자점의 형광이 50% 증가됨을 확인하였으며, 아연 농도가 증가함에 따라 양자점의 형광세기가 증가되며 이는 Langmuir binding isotherm 모델로 해석할 수 있다. 이러한 연구를 바탕으로 CdSe 기반의 나노결정을 이용한 형광 화학 센서를 구현할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The humans are under attack involving the hazardous environment and pathogen/biotoxin aerosol that is realistic concerned. A portable, fast, reliable, and cheap Pathogen and Biotoxin Aerosol threat Detection(PBAD) trigger is an important technology for detect-to-protect and detect-to-treat system because the man-made biological terror is a fast and lethal infection. The ultraviolet C(UVC) wavelengths light source is key issue for PBAD that is sensitive because of strong fluorescence cross section from fluorescent amino acids in proteins such as tryptophan and tyrosine. The UVC-light emitting diode(LED) is emerging light source technology as alternative to laser or lamps as they offer several advantages. This paper discussed about the design consideration of UVC-LED for the PBAD system. The UVC-LED and PBAD technology, currently available or in development, are also discussed.

In this paper, we present a DNA manipulation device in the reaction chamber, which consists of a center electrode and circular outer electrodes of a reaction unit. The charged bio-molecules, DNA, are manipulated by the charge of the electrode in reaction unit. Controlling the induced dynamic electric field between the center electrode and the outer electrodes, concentration / repulsion / manipulation of bio-molecules are enabled at a periphery of electrode. Concentration of the fluorescent DNA at the center electrode is observed by applying ＋2V. Subsequently, applying －2V, the concentrated DNA is repelled rapidly from the center electrode, which makes dispersion completely in 0.5second. Furthermore, repeated applying ＋1V/－1V every 5 seconds at each outer electrode, we can circulate the DNA. We also investigate a micro-heater and sensor for DNA manipulation and reaction temperature. The coefficient of heat-resistance and heater temperature characteristic is 0.0043 and 100$^{\circ}C$/sec, respectively.

Conventional methods for pathogen detection and identification are labor-intensive and take days to complete. Biosensors have shown great potential for the rapid detection of foodborne pathogens. Fiber-optic biosensors have been used to rapidly detect pathogens because they can be very sensitive and are simple to operate. However, many fiber-optic biosensors rely on manual sensor handling and the sandwich assay, which require more effort and are less sensitive. To increase the simplicity of operation and detection sensitivity, a binding inhibition assay method for detecting Listeria monocytogenes in food samples was developed using an automated, fiber-optic-based immunosensor: RAPTOR (Research International, Monroe, WA, USA). For the assay, fiber-optic biosensors were developed by the immobilization of Listeria antibodies on polystyrene fiber waveguides through a biotin-avidin reaction. Developed fiber-optic biosensors were incorporated into the RAPTOR to evaluate the detection of L. monocytogenes in frankfurter samples. The binding inhibition method combined with RAPTOR was sensitive enough to detect L. monocytogenes ($5.4{\times}10^7\;CFU/mL$) in a frankfurter sample.
