  • Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a medical treatment using laser and photosensitizing drug taken up to destroy cancer cells. Singlet oxygen ($^1$0$_2$) generation is strongly related to this treatment. We have built a direct detection system monitoring feeble luminescence, in the near IR region, from $^1$0$_2$, We have comparatively studied the photophysical and photochemical properties in solution of a newly developed drug ATX-S10 and Photofrin already investigated clinically. We demonstrdted that ATX-S10 was capable of efficiently yielding $^1$0$_2$, which may lead to highly efficient PDT treatment. Successive laser excitation photobleached ATX -S10 readily in a dose-dependent manner. This result shows that ATX -S10 is useful in setting up suitable medical treatment conditions to minimize side effects.

  • Photochemical ozone is formed from nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds(VOCs) through non-linear interactions between chemical reactions and meteorology, and the relationship between precursors and photochemical ozone will be changed to match the emission distribution and meteorological fields. It is generally known that for some conditions the process of ozone formation is controlled almost entirely by NOx and is largely independent of VOC, while for other conditions ozone production increases with increasing VOC and does not increase(or sometimes even decreases) with increasing NOx (omitted)

  • The ablative decomposition mechanism of PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate) and PET(polyethylene terephthalate) with KrF excimer laser(λ : 248nm, pulse duration: 5㎱) is investigated. The UV/Vis spectrometer analysis showed that PMMA is a weak absorber and PET is a strong absorber at the wavelength of 248nm. The results(surface debris, melt, etch depth, etching shape) from drilling and direct writing experiments imply that ablation mechanism of PMMA is dominated by photothermal process, while that of PET is dominated by photochemical process.

  • This study was performed to investigate the characteristics of nocturnal maxiumu ozone occurrence and the meteorological relevance using to hourly ozone data and meteorological data for 1995~1996 in Pusan coastal area. Kwangbokdong showed the highest occurrence of nocturnal maximum ozone as 36.9%, and Deokcheondong showed the lowest occurrence(9.2%) for research period in Pusan. The occurrence rates of nocturnal maximum ozone concentration were decreased toward land area. The low maximum temperature, high minimum temperature, low diurnal range, high relative humidity, high wind speed, high could amount, low sunshine and low radiation were closely related to the main meteorological characteristics occuring the nocturnal maximum concnetration of ozone. It was shown that normal daily variation of ozone concentration by strong photochemical reaction at the before day of nocturnal maximum ozone. The concnetration of nocturnal maximum ozone were occured by entrainment of ozone from the upper layer of developed mixing layer. There are no ozone sources near the ground at night, so that the nighttime ozone should be entrained from the upper layer by forced convection.

  • Recently, Phthalocyanine dye has attentions due to their excellent photochemical properties and used to optical applications such as chemical sensors. And azo groups can change photochemical properties in the UV irradiation because their molecualr structure reverse cis-trans isomer and changes cooperative motion, aggregation and so on. In this study, we synthesized the azo compound between amino pyridine and phenol. this azo derivative used the combination with 3-nitro phthalonitrile and makes phthalocyanine structure through the synthesis with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene(DBU), zinc acetate. Finally, we synthesized a new photoswiching dye zinc-phthalocyanine azo compound. This compound was studied by phothoswichiing phenomenon by UV irradiation and analyzed molecular aggregation through the SEM images.

  • Carbonyl compounds have been measured in downtown Seoul for September 1998 using 2-series impinger method. Average concentration (ppbv) of carbonyl compounds were 12.66$\pm$5.77 HCHO, 12.05$\pm$4.86 CH3CHO and 7.92$\pm$2.63 CH3CHCH3 These compounds were the most abundant carbonyl,. They showed maximum concentration during the daytime when photochemical activity was very strong minimum concentration were usually showed during the night and early morning. Comparison of diurnal variation of carbonyl compounds with the concentration of O3, NMHC, CO and meteorological data indicated that primary and secondary sources contributed the observed carbonyl compounds. Photochemical Formation Rate(PFR) of carbonyl compounds dur-ing the sampling periods were 61% HCHO, 85% CH3CHO, 85% CH3CHO, 71% CH3COCH3.

  • This study was carried out to survey the high ozone episode of summertime in Busan. The selected day was July 18, 1999 and August 24, 2001 which recorded exceed to 12ppb/hr at 3 station in Busan simultaneously. In case July 18, 1999, thick cloud and variable wind made weak ozone concentration during morning hour. And increase of ozone concentration by revolution of mixed layer for morning hour did not occur in this case study day. Photochemical reaction by strong radiation after 1100LST made sharp increase rate of ozone concentration(50ppb/hr). In case August 24, 2001, the meteorological condition of this day was not general wind with gradient force, very clear day with less cloud amount, high insolation and sunshine. Dongsamdong, Beomcheondong, Daeyeondong, and Sinpyeongdong had double peak which twice maximum concentration in the early afternoon and late afternoon. Ozone concentration of this day was in inverse proportion to Nitrogen oxide strongly. Ozone concentration exceed to 60ppb/hr occurred at 1400LST, continued to 2300LST.
