삼중항-삼중항 소멸에 의한 광에너지 상향전환 기술의 원리와 최신 연구현황 = Principle and Research Trends of Triplet-triplet Annihilation Upconversion

국문 초록 (Abstract)

삼중항-삼중항 소멸에 의한 광에너지 상향전환 기술(Triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion, TTA-UC)은 특정 에너지 조건을 만족시키는 유기물들의 조합에 의해 낮은 에너지의 광자를 높은 에너지의 광자로 변환시키는 특수한 광화학적 공정이다. TTA-UC는 태양광 스펙트럼 중 낮은 에너지 탓에 활용되지 못하고 소실되는 광자를 고 에너지의 광자로 변환시킴으로써 태양광에 기반한 광학기기들의 광에너지 전환효율을 획기적으로 향상시킬 수 있는 기술로 평가받고 있다. 본 논문은 아직 국내학계에 생소한 연구분야인 TTA-UC현상의 광화학적 원리와 특징을 소개하고, TTA-UC와 관련한 최신 연구동향과 응용분야, 그리고 향후 연구방향을 고찰하였다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) is a special photochemical process that converts low energy photons to higher energy photon via combination of organic chemicals which fulfill specific energetic criteria. TTA-UC has been known as attractive technology that is able to enhance energy conversion efficiency of the photonic devices based on sunlight, which is achieved by conversion of wasted low energy photons in solar spectrum into higher energy photon. In the present paper, we introduced the photochemical mechanism and characteristics of TTA-UC phe-nomenon, which is yet unfamiliar to the domestic academia, and investigated recent research status, application, and future research directions of TTA-UC technology.
