The research presented in this paper deals with dynamic stability analysis of the graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) reinforced composite spinning disk. The presented small-scaled structure is simulated as a disk covered by viscoelastic substrate which is two-parametric. The centrifugal and Coriolis impacts due to the spinning are taken into account. The stresses and strains would be obtained using the first-order-shear-deformable-theory (FSDT). For Poisson ratio, as well as various amounts of mass densities, the mixture rule is employed, while a modified Halpin-Tsai model is inserted for achieving the elasticity module. The structure's boundary conditions (BCs) are obtained employing GPLs reinforced composite (GPLRC) spinning disk's governing equations applying principle of Hamilton which is based on minimum energy and ultimately have been solved employing numerical approach called generalized-differential quadrature-method (GDQM). Spinning disk's dynamic properties with different boundary conditions (BCs) are explained due to the curves drawn by Matlab software. Also, the simply-supported boundary conditions is applied to edges 𝜃=𝜋/2, and 𝜃=3𝜋/2, while, cantilever, respectively, is analyzed in R=R_i, and R₀. The final results reveal that the GPLs' weight fraction, viscoelastic substrate, various GPLs' pattern, and rotational velocity have a dramatic influence on the amplitude, and vibration behavior of a GPLRC rotating cantilevered disk. As an applicable result in related industries, the spinning velocity impact on the frequency is more effective in the higher radius ratio's amounts.

In situ electrochemical atomic force microscopy (ECAFM) observations of the surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) was performed before and after cyclic voltammetry in lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) dissolved in 1-buthyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium (BDMI)-TFSI to understand the interfacial reactions between graphite and BDMI-based ionic liquids. The formation of blisters and the exfoliation of graphene layers by the intercalation of $BDMI^+$ cations within HOPG were observed instead of reversible lithium intercalation and de-intercalation. On the other hand, lithium ions are reversibly intercalated into the HOPG and de-intercalatied from the HOPG without intercalation of the $BDMI^+$ cations in the presence of 15 wt% of 4.90 mol/$kg^{-1}$ LiTFSI dissolved in propylene carbonate (PC). ECAFM results revealed that the concentrated PC-based solution is a very effective additive for preventing $BDMI^+$ intercalation through the formation of solid electrolyte interface (SEI).

The adsorption of various atmospheric harmful gases (COx, NOx, SOx) on graphene-like Germanene 2D sheet was theoretically investigated using density functional theory(DFT) method. The structures were fully optimized at the B3LYP/cc-pvDZ and CAM-B3LYP/cc-pvDZ levels of theory and confirmed to be a local minimum by the calculation of the harmonic vibrational frequencies. The adsorptions of gases on the Germanene sheet were predicted to be a physisorption process for CO, CO2, NO, and SO2 gases but to be a chemisorption process for NO2, SO, and SO2 gases.

Silicene, a 2D allotrope of silicon, is predicted to be a potential material for future transistor that might be compatible with present silicon fabrication technology. Similar to graphene, silicene exhibits the honeycomb lattice structure. Consequently, silicene is a semimetallic material, preventing its application as a field-effect transistor. Therefore, this work proposes the uniform doping bandgap engineering technique to obtain the n-type silicene nanosheet. By applying nearest neighbour tight-binding approach and parabolic band assumption, the analytical modelling equations for band structure, density of states, electrons and holes concentrations, intrinsic electrons velocity, and ideal ballistic current transport characteristics are computed. All simulations are done by using MATLAB. The results show that a bandgap of 0.66 eV has been induced in uniformly doped silicene with phosphorus (PSi₃NW) in the zigzag direction. Moreover, the relationships between intrinsic velocity to different temperatures and carrier concentration are further studied in this paper. The results show that the ballistic carrier velocity of PSi₃NW is independent on temperature within the degenerate regime. In addition, an ideal room temperature subthreshold swing of 60 mV/dec is extracted from ballistic current-voltage transfer characteristics. In conclusion, the PSi₃NW is a potential nanomaterial for future electronics applications, particularly in the digital switching applications.

그래핀은 본연의 우수한 물성으로 인하여 전자소자, 에너지 저장매체, 유연성 전도막 등 다양한 분야로의 응용가능성이 제기되었으나, 실제적인 응용을 위해서는 구조적인 결함을 최소화하며, 특성을 자유로이 제어하거나 향상시키는 공정의 개발이 요구된다. 특히 그래핀을 전자소자로 응용하기 위해서는 전기적 특성을 제어하는 것이 요구된다. 일반적으로 화학적 도핑은 그래핀의 전기적 특성을 제어하는 효율적인 방법으로 알려져 있다. 화학적 도핑은 그래핀을 구성하는 탄소원자를 이종원자로 치환하거나 표면에 흡착시켜 기능화 된 그래핀을 얻는 방법으로, 특정 가스 분위기에서 고온 열처리하거나 활성종들이 존재하는 플라즈마에 노출시키는 방법이 제시되었다. 특히 플라즈마를 이용한 도핑방법은 저온에서 단시간의 처리로 도핑이 가능하고, 플라즈마 변수를 변경하여 도핑정도를 수월하게 제어할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 플라즈마내의 극성을 띄는 다양한 활성종들의 충돌효과로 인하여 구조적인 손상이 발생하여 오히려 특성이 저하될 수 있어 이를 고려한 플라즈마 공정조건의 설정이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 플라즈마에 노출된 그래핀의 Raman 특성을 고찰함으로써 화학적 도핑과 구조적인 결함의 경계를 확립하고 구조결함의 형성을 최소화한 효율적인 도핑조건을 도출하였다. 그래핀은 물리적 박리법을 이용하여 300 nm 두께의 실리콘 산화막이 존재하는 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 제작하였으며, 평행 평판형 직류 플라즈마 장치를 이용하여 전극의 위치, 인가전력, 처리시간을 변수로 암모니아($NH_3$) 플라즈마를 방전하여 그래핀의 Raman 특성변화를 관찰하였다. 그래핀의 구조적 결함 및 도핑 효과는 라만 스펙트럼의 D, D', 2D밴드의 강도와 G밴드의 위치와 반치폭(Full width at half maximum; FWHM)의 변화를 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과, 인가전력과 처리시간에 따라 결함형성과 질소도핑 영역이 구분 가능함을 확인하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 결함형성을 최소화한 효율적인 도핑조건이 접지전위, 0.45 W의 인가전력, 처리시간 10초이며, 최적조건에서 계산된 도핑레벨은 $1.8{\times}10^{12}cm^{-2}$임을 확인하였다.

With the advances in recent nanotechnology, mass transport phenomena have been receiving large attention both in academic researches and industrial applications. Nonetheless, it is not clearly determined which parameters are dominant at nanoscale mass transport. Especially, membrane is a kind of technology that use a selective separation to secure fresh water. The development of great separation membrane and membrane-based separation system is an important way to solve existing water resource problems. In this study, glass fiber-based membranes which are treated by graphene oxide (GO), poly-styrene sulfonate (GOP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (GPS) were fabricated. Mass transport parameters were investigated in terms of material-specific and structure-specific dominance. The 3D structural information of GO, GOP, and GPS was obtained by using synchrotron X-ray nano tomography. In addition, electrostatic characteristic and water absorption rate of the membranes were investigated. As a result, we calculated internal structural information using Tomadakis-Sotrichos model, and we found that manipulation of surface characteristics can improve spacer arm effect, which means enhancement of water permeability by control length of ligand and surface charge functionality of the membrane.

In this study, a comprehensive investigation was conducted on the morphological and property changes of laser-induced nanocarbon (LINC) as a function of laser process parameters. LINC was formed on the surfaces of polyimide films with different backbone structures under various process conditions, including laser power, scan speed, and resolution. Three different forms of LINC electrodes (i.e., continuous 3D porous graphene, wooly nanocarbon fibers, line cut) were formed depending on the laser power and scan speed. Furthermore, heteroatom doping induced from the chemical structure of the polyimide during laser patterning was found to be effective in modifying the electrical properties of LINC electrodes. The LINC surfaces exhibited different microstructures depending on the laser beam resolution under constant laser power and scan speed, allowing for controllable surface wettability. The correlation between the chemical structure of the polymer substrate, laser process parameters, and carbonized surface properties in this study is expected to be utilized as fundamental understanding for the manufacturing of next-generation carbon-based electronic devices.

In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown on glass substrates coated with Ni/Cr by an atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(AP-PECVD) and their structural and electrical characteristics were investigated as a possible application to the field emitter of field emission display (FED) devices. The substrate temperature ($400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$) were varied and the grown CNTs were multi wall CNTs (at $500^{\circ}C$, 15 - 20 layers of graphene sheets, distance of each layer : 0.3nm, inner diameter: 10 - 15nm, outer diameter: 30 - 40nm). The ratio of defective carbon peak to graphite carbon peak of the CNTs grown at $500^{\circ}C$ (C measured by fourier transform(FT)-Raman was 0.772 $I_D / I_G$ ratio. When field emission properties were measured, the turn-on field was $2.92V/{\mu}m$ and the emission field at $1mA/cm^2$ was $5.325V /{\mu}m$.
