수열합성법을 이용하여 $Zn_2GeO_4$ 및 $Zn_2SnO_4$ 나노선을 대량 합성하였고 리튬이온 전지와 소듐이온전지의 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 리튬이온전지에서 $Zn_2GeO_4$ 나노선은 50 사이클 이후에 1021 mAh/g, $Zn_2SnO_4$ 나노선은 692 mAh/g의 높은 방전용량을 갖는 것을 확인하였고 두 나노선 모두 98%가 넘는 쿨롱 효율을 보였다. 따라서 이들 나노선은 고성능 리튬이온전지의 개발을 위한 음극소재로 기대된다. 또한 소듐이온전지에 대한 관심이 국내는 물론 전 세계적으로 집중이 되고 있어 처음으로 $Zn_2GeO_4$과 $Zn_2SnO_4$ 나노선에 대한 소듐이온전지를 제작하여 용량을 측정하였다. 측정한 결과 이들 나노선은 50 사이클 이후에 각각 168 mAh/g 과 200 mAh/g의 방전용량을 갖는 것을 확인하였고 두 나노선 모두 97%가 넘는 높은 쿨롱 효율을 보였으며 이에 우리의 첫 시도가 앞으로 많은 연구에 기여할 것으로 예상한다.

One-dimensional metal oxide nanostructures have attracted considerable research activities owing to their strong application potential as components for nanosize electronic or optoelectronic devices utilizing superior optical and electrical properties. In which, semiconducting $SnO_2$ material with wide-bandgap Eg = 3.6 eV at room temperature, is one of the attractive candidates for optoelectronic devices operating at room temperature [1, 2], gas sensor [3, 4], and transparent conducting electrodes [5]. The synthesis and gas sensing properties of semiconducting $SnO_2$ nanomaterials have become one of important research issues since the first synthesis of SnO2 nanowires. In this study, $SnO_2$ nanowire networks were synthesized on a basis of a two-step process. In step 1, Sn spheres (30-800 nm in diameter) embedded in $SiO_2$ on a Si substrate was synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method at $700^{\circ}C$. In step 2, using the source of these Sn spheres, $SnO_2$ nanowire (20-40 nm in diameter; $1-10{\mu}m$ in length) networks on a spherical Sn surface were synthesized by a thermal oxidation method at $800^{\circ}C$. The Au layers were pre-deposited on the surface of Sn spherical and subsequently oxidized Sn surface of Sn spherical formed SnO2 nanowires networks. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images indicated that $SnO_2$ nanowires are single crystalline. In addition, the $SnO_2$ nanowire is also a tetragonal rutile, with the preferred growth directions along [100] and a lattice spacing of 0.237 nm. Subsequently, the $NO_2$ sensing properties of the $SnO_2$ network nanowires sensor at an operating temperature of $50-250^{\circ}C$ were examined, and showed a reversible response to $NO_2$ at various $NO_2$ concentrations. Finally, details of the growth mechanism and formation of Sn spheres and $SnO_2$ nanowire networks are also discussed.

VOCs (Volatile Organic Compound) sensors were fabricated using $SnO_2$nanowires-based thin films and its gas sensing behaviors were studied. The $SnO_2$ nanowires synthesized from a thermal evaporation process were dispersed in a solution and the sensor film was prepared by dropping the slurry on the substrate with the electrodes and an embedded heater. The gas response (Ra/Rg, Ra: resistance in air, Rg: resistance in gas) to $30{\sim}40$ ppm Benzene, Ethyl Benzene, o-xylene were in the range of $39{\sim}42$, which were significantly higher than those to 50 ppm of CO, $CH_4$ and $C_3H_8$ ($12{\sim}19$).

The effect of oxygen pressure in the synthesis of $SnO_2$ micro/nanocrystals through thermal evaporation of Sn powder was investigated. The thermal evaporation process was performed at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr under various oxygen pressures. The pressure of oxygen changed from 10 to 500 Torr. The morphology of $SnO_2$ crystals changed drastically with oxygen pressure. $SnO_2$ nanoparticles with an average diameter of 120 nm were formed at oxygen pressure lower than 10 Torr. $SnO_2$ nanowires were grown under an oxygen pressure of 100 Torr. The nanowires have diameters in the range of 100 ~ 500 nm and lengths of several tens of micrometers. As increasing the oxygen pressure to 500 Torr, the sizes of wires increased. A strong visible emission peak centered at about 500 ~ 600 nm was observed in the room temperature cathodoluminescence spectra of all the products.

Two different $SnO_2$ nanomaterials(nanowires and nanobelts) were synthesized from the thermal evaporation of ball-milled $SnO_2$ powders at $1350^{\circ}C$ without the presence of any catalysts, and their structural properties are then investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. This investigation reveals that the $SnO_2$ nanowires are single-crystalline and their growth direction is parallel to the [100] direction, and that the $SnO_2$ nanobelts are single crystalline and their shape is zigzag. In addition, photoresponse of a single $SnO_2$ nanowire was performed with light above-gap energy, and different characteristics of photoresponse were obtained for the nanowire at ambient atmosphere and in vacuum.

$SnO_2-CoO$/carbon-coated CoO core/shell nanowire composites were synthesized by using electrospinning and hydrothermal methods. In order to obtain $SnO_2-CoO$/carbon-coated CoO core/shell nanowire composites, $SnO_2-Co_3O_4$ nanowire composites and $SnO_2-Co_3O_4$/polygonal $Co_3O_4$ core/shell nanowire composites are also synthesized. To demonstrate their structural, chemical bonding, and morphological properties, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were carried out. These results indicated that the morphologies and structures of the samples were changed from $SnO_2-Co_3O_4$ nanowires having cylindrical structures to $SnO_2-Co_3O_4/Co_3O_4$ core/shell nanowires having polygonal structures after a hydrothermal process. At last, $SnO_2-CoO$/carbon-coated CoO core/shell nanowire composites having irregular and high surface area are formed after carbon coating using a polypyrrole (PPy). Also, there occur phases transformation of cobalt phases from $Co_3O_4$ to CoO during carbon coating using a PPy under a argon atmosphere.

We report the characteristics of individual ultra-long SnO2 nanowires(NWs) grown on sapphire(0001) substrates by vapor transport method. NWs, with typical lengths of >$400{\mu}m$, grew in the form of NW bundles under a hydrogen reducing atmosphere, without metal catalysts. The individual NWs were examined using high-resolution X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and micro-Raman spectroscopy. The results revealed that the SnO2 NWs grew as high-quality, tetragonal-rutile-phase single crystals with mosaic distributions of $0.02^{\circ}$ and $0.026^{\circ}$ in the (101) and (110) planes, respectively.

$SnO_2$ nanowires are used at the nanoscale level for the electrical transduction of the gas interaction with these sensing materials. We report on a study of high sensitivity and fast NOx gas sensor. We focused on improving the response time and refresh time by growth nanowires on the trench structure of Si substrate as air path. To improve refresh time we applied the trench structure with depth of $10\;{\mu}m$ by the inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching(ICP-RIE). The fabricated device was measured at temperature of $200{\sim}300^{\circ}C$. The sensor exhibit ultra-fast and reversible electrical response (t90% ~4 s for response and ~3 s for recovery).

The network structure of $SnO_2$ nanowires was fabricated on the electrodes by a simple thermal evaporation process from Sn metal powders and oxygen gas. The diameter of the nanowires was $20\;{\sim}\;60\;nm$ depending on the processing conditions. The operating temperature of the sensor could be decreased down below $50^{\circ}C$ by controlling the properties of the nanowires and the structures of the electrodes. The sensitivities were $10\;{\sim}\;15$ when the $NO_2$ concentrations were $10\;{\sim}\;50\;ppm$ at the operating temperature of $50^{\circ}C$.

Various Semiconductor/Metal structured nanowires were synthesized from the simple thermal annealing of ball-milled compound powders and the thermal evaporation of metals. Their structural properties were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX). Depending on the type of metals and the material of nanowires, uniform somiconductor/metal nanowires(GaN/Al, GaN/Ag) or isolated metal particles on semiconductor nanowires$(SnO_2/Ti,\;Si/Ti)$ were formed on the surface of nanowires.
