We present the high-resolution spectrum of the S-type symbiotic star V455 Sco obtained with the Dupont telescope in 2014 June. We note that the Raman-scattered O VI ${\lambda}1032$ at $6825{\AA}$ exhibits a triple-peak profile. Adopting an accretion disk model with an additional contribution from a collimated bipolar outflow, we attempt to fit the profile. We propose that the blue and central peaks are formed via Raman-scattering of O VI line photons from the accretion flow and that the bipolar flow is responsible for the remaining red peak. It is also noted that V455 Sco exhibits the Raman-scattered He II features blueward of $H{\alpha}$ and $H{\beta}$.

수소화된 비정질 탄소(a-C:H0는 그 형성 조건에 따라서 여러 가지 다른 구조와 특성을 갖게 되며, 특히 DLC(diamond-like carbon)-FED(field emission display) 개발 면에서 중요하게 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 a-C:H 박막을 PECVD(plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition) 방법으로 증착하고 주고 ESR 및 Raman 측정을 통하여 그 결과를 조사해 보았다. PECVD 증착가스는 CH4 가스를 사용하였다. 기판은 Corning 1737 glass를 사용하였고, 기판 온도는 32$0^{\circ}C$이었다. 증착 압력과 R>F. power는 각각 0.1-1 Torr 와 12-36 W 사이에서 변화되었다. ESR를 피하기 위하여, microwave power에 대한 ESR 신호 의존성을 측정하고 포화효과를 피하기 위한 Raman spectroscopy로 분석하였다. R.F.power가 증가할수록 증착속도는 0.06 nm/sec 정도까지 대체로 증가하였으나, pressure가 1 Torr 일때는 같은 R.F. power로써 증착이 일어나지 않는 경우도 발생하였다. 증착된 a-C:H 박막은 R.F.power가 증가할수록 스핀밀도의 증가가 두드러졌으며, 기타 증착가스 압력 등의 증착 조건에 따른 ESR 및 Raman 스펙트럼의 변화를 관찰하였다.

Homogeneous and crack-free potassium lithium niobate (K₃Li/sub 2-x/Nb/sub 5+x/O/sub 15/, 0＜x＜0.5, KLN) single crystals were successfully grown by the Czochralski technique. The KLN single crystals of several different compositions were employed for the investigation of the lattice vibration spectra using infrared Raman spectroscopy. The characteristic Raman spectra of the [NbO/sub 6/]/sup 7-/ octahedral ions were strikingly influenced by the Li ion content. The symmetric stretch vibrational modes V₁, V₂ are broadened, and the symmetric bend vibration mode V/sub 5/ is broadened and even split into three peaks with increasing the Li content, supporting that the bend vibration modes of the [NbO/sub 6/]/sup 7-/ octahedrons are obviously perturbed by Li ions in the C site. Enhanced Raman peak intensities after the post annealing at 900℃ and for 24 h evidenced that a residual stress in as-grown crystals was negligible and only a defect concentration might be reduced.

Negative-AND (NAND) flash의 대용량 및 소형화로 인해 10 nm급 공정을 도입한 128 Gb NAND flash가 개발된 이래, 공정이 미세화되면서 셀이 작이지고 간격이 좁아지게 되었다. 이로 인해 전자가 누설되는 간섭현상이 심화되게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존 NAND의 평면 구조를 수직으로 적층하는 3D NAND 기술이 개발되었으며 차세대 소자를 위한 필수 기술로 각광받고 있다. 3D NAND에서 channel hole etching시 고 선택 비의 중요도가 증가하여 증착막 보호 역할을 하는 hardmask의 두께가 증가하게 되었으며 기존 하드마스크 대비 내식각성이 2배 이상 향상된 hard material 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 dopant에 따른 amorphous carbon layer (ACL)의 etch rate의 변화량을 Raman spectroscopy등의 측정장비를 이용하여 비교분석 하였다. dopant의 각각 유량별에 대한 etch rate 변화의 영향성을 비교하였다. dopant의 유량에 따라 etch rate이 변화하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 2000 sccm 이후에는 etch rate이 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. Raman 측정결과, etch rate의 감소에 따라 G-peak의 red shift가 발생하였으며 두 peak 간의 차이 값이 etch rate의 변화율과 유사한 경향을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

We measured the pH-induced spectral changes of yeast iso-1-cytochrome c on silver nanoparticle surfaces using surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) at 457.9 nm. At a pH of ~3, the Met80 ligand in yeast iso-1-cytochrome c is assumed to dissociate, leading to a marked conformational change as evidenced by the vibrational spectral shifts. The Soret band at ~410 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum shifted to ~396 nm at pH~3, indicating a transition from a low spin state to a high spin state from a weak interaction with a water molecule. Thus, SERRS spectroscopy can measure the pH-induced denaturalization of cyt c adsorbed on metal nanoparticle surfaces at a lower concentration with a better sensitivity than ordinary resonance Raman spectroscopy.

Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) spectroscopy is a multifaceted surface sensitive methodology which exploits spectroscopy-based analysis for various applications. This technique is based on the massive amplification of Raman signals which were feeble previously in order to use them for appropriate identification at qualitative and quantitative in chemical as well as biological systems. This novel powerful technique can be utilized to identify pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. As far as SERS is concerned, one of the most studied problems has been functionalization of SERS active substrate. Metal colloids and nanostructures or microstructures synthesized using noble metals such as Au, Ag and Cu are considered to be SERS active. Silver and gold are extensively used as SERS active substrates due to chemical inertness and stability in air compare to copper. However, use of Cu as a suitable alternative has been taken into account as it is cheap. Herein, we have synthesized air-stable copper microstructures/nanostructures by chemical, electrochemical and microwave-assisted methods. In this paper, we have also discussed the use of as synthesized copper micro/nanostructures as inexpensive yet effective SERS active substrates for the fast identification of micro-organisms like Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

The development of effective cellular imaging requires a specific labeling method for targeting, tracking, and monitoring cellular/molecular events in the living organism. For this purpose, we studied the cellular uptake of isocyanide-functionalized silver and gold nanoparticles by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Inside a single mammalian cell, we could monitor the intracellular behavior of such nanoparticles by measuring the SERS spectra. The NC stretching band appeared clearly at ${\sim}2,100cm^{-1}$ in the well-isolated spectral region from many organic constituents between 300 and 1,700 or 2,800 and $3,600cm^{-1}$. The SERS marker band at ${\sim}2,100cm^{-1}$ could be used to judge the location of the isocyanide-functionalized nanoparticles inside the cell without much spectral interference from other cellular constituents. Our results demonstrate that isocyanide-modified silver or gold nanoparticle-based SERS may have high potential for monitoring and imaging the biological processes at the single cell level.

The quantitative analysis of SB latex contents in coating color and coated paper was investigated with FT/Raman spectroscopy. From the measured FT/IR and FT/Ramon spectra, the peaks of coating color were compared with those of each compoents . Calibration curves were obtained by the area of latex peaks and PLS method of QuantIR program. The relation of predicted values in PLS method and actual values in coating mixtures and coating layer was examined. The components of coating layer in coated paper were investigated by EDS , X-mapping and SEM, The contents of latex in z-direction were calculated in the coating layer of unknown coated paper. The latex concentration measurements of Top layer and Pre layer in double coated paper show that each layer has different value. In single coated paper, it is clear that the latex concentration is highest at the surface and decreases with an increase of depth. From those results it is indicated that the latex migrates to the coated surface. The result of this study may be applied to the binder migration study and the quality control in paper mill.

Composite films were prepared by casting the solution of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and single wall nanotube (SWNT) in DMF subsequent to sonication. The SWNTs in the films are well dispersed as ropes with 20-30 nm thickness. Moreover, AFM surface image of the composite film displays an interwoven fibrous structure of nanotubes which may give rise to conductive passways and lead to high conductivity. The polarized Raman spectroscopy is an ideal characterization technique for identification and the orientation study of SWNT. The well-defined G-peak intensity at 1580 $cm^{-1}$shows a dependency on the draw ratio under cross-Nicol. The degree of nanotube orientation in the drawn film was measurable from the sine curve obtained by rotating the drawn film on the plane of cross-Nicol of polarized Raman microscope. The threshold loading of SWNT for electrical conductivity in PAN is found to be lower than 1 wt% in the composite film. The electrical conductivity of the SWNT/PAN composite film decreased with increasing of draw ratio due to the collapse of the interwoven fibrous network of the nanotubes with uniaxial orientation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the coloration characteristics by identifying the factor affecting red coloration of copper red glaze in traditional Korean ceramics. This study analyzed the characteristics of the reduction-fired copper red glaze by using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, EDX and UV-vis spectroscopy. As a result of XRD analysis, the glaze completely melted and amorphous glass appeared overall, and the characteristic peak of metal Cu was shown together. In addition, as a result of Raman analysis, the characteristic bands of CuO and $Cu_2O$ were shown together. The distribution of component elements was observed by EDX. As a result, copper(Cu) were distributed throughout the glaze. Thus, it was shown that copper red glaze appeared the best red coloration because metal Cu, CuO and $Cu_2O$ evenly existed throughout glaze in particle colloidal state. The chroma value of the copper red glaze was CIE $L^*$ 30.07, $a^*$ 13.65, $b^*$ 3.72. Wine-Red Solution was shown by Dark Graish Red coloration.
