Biosynthesis of nanoparticles has acquired particular attention due to its economic feasibility, low toxicity and simplicity of the process. Extracellular synthesis of nanoparticles by bacteria and fungi has been stated to be brought about by enzymes and other reducing agents that may be secreted in the culture medium. The present study was carried out to determine the underlying mechanisms of extracellular silver nanoparticle synthesis by Pseudomonas hibiscicola isolated from the effluent of an electroplating industry in Mumbai. Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by spectroscopy and electron microscopic techniques. Protein profiling studies were done using Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (1D-SDS PAGE) and subjected to identification by Mass Spectrometry. Characterization studies revealed synthesis of 50 nm nanoparticles of well-defined morphology. Total protein content and SDS PAGE analysis revealed a reduction of total protein content in test (nanoparticles solution) samples when compared to controls (broth supernatant). 45.45% of the proteins involved in the process of nanoparticle synthesis were identified to be oxidoreductases and are thought to be involved in either reduction of metal ions or capping of synthesized nanoparticles.

반도체 산업이 성장하고 기술이 향상됨에 따라 소자의 소형화가 이루어지고 있다. 공정법으로는 atomic layer deposition (ALD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD) 등이 있다. 이러한 공정을 이용하여 수십 nm까지 미세화가 진행되고 있으며, 복잡한 구조의 박막을 실현하기 위해 전구체의 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 전구체의 특성을 비실시간으로 분석하는 방법으로는 질량 분석법, 가스크로마토그래피, 적외선 분광법 등이 있다. 전구체의 특성을 실시간으로 분석하기 위해 Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)내에 attenuated total reflectance (ATR)를 거치시켰다. 본 연구는 구조를 개선한 ATR-FTIR을 이용하여 Tris-(dimethylamino) Zirconium (CpZr) 전구체의 흡착 거동을 분석하였다. ATR용 crystal은 Ge crystal을 사용했으며, 온도를 각각 30, 40, $50^{\circ}C$에서 CpZr 전구체의 흡착특성을 연구했다. 흡착성을 증가시키기 위해 Ge crystal 표면에 $ZrO_2$나노입자를 분포시켜 흡착특성을 비교 분석하였다. 또한 CpZr 전구체가 흡착된 Ge crystal 표면에 오존가스를 주입시킨 후 변화를 관찰하였다. Ge crystal표면에 나노입자를 분포시켜 CpZr 전구체를 흡착한 결과 나노입자를 분포시키지 않았을 때 보다 흡착강도가 높게 나타났다. 또한 CpZr 전구체가 흡착된 Ge crystal 표면에 오존가스를 주입한 결과 C-H 결합이 분해됨을 확인했다.

In recent printed electronics technology, Photo-Sintering, a technique for sintering materials using a light source, has attracted attention as an alternative to time-consuming high-temperature thermal processes. The key principle of this technique is the selective heating of a strongly absorbent thin film, while preventing the heating of the transparent substrate by the light source. Many recent studies have used a flash lamp as the light source, and investigated the material-dependent effect of the width or intensity of the pulsed light. However, the flash lamp for sintering is not suitable for industry yet, because of needing too high power to sinter for a large scale. In energy-saving and large-scale sintering, LED technologies would be very useful in the near future. In this work, we investigated a sintering process for silver nanoparticles using UV-LED array. Silver nanoparticles in ink were inkjet-printed on a $1{\times}1cm$ area of a PET film and photo-sintered by 365 nm UV-LED module. A sheet resistance value as low as $72.6m{\Omega}/sq$ (2.3 - 4.5 times that of bulk silver) was obtained from the UV-LED sintering at 300 mW/cm2 for 50 min.

A sensitive, selective and rapid method has been developed for the determination ${\mu}$g/L level of vanadium ion based on the rapid reaction of vanadium(V) with 2-(2-quinolylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (QADEAP) and the solid phase extraction of the colored chelate with $C_{18}$ cartridge. The QADEAP reacts with V(V) in the presence of citric acid-sodium hydroxide buffer solution (pH = 3.5) and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB) medium to form a violet chelate of a molar ratio 1 : 2 (V(V) to QADEAP). This chelate was enriched by solid phase extraction with $C_{18}$cartridge and the enrichment factor of 50 was obtained by elution of the chelates from the cartridge with ethanol. The molar absorptivity of the chelate is $1.28 {\times}10^5L\;mol^{-1}cm^{-1}$ at 590 nm in the measured solution. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 0.01-0.6 ${\mu}$g/mL. The detection limit is 0.04 ${\mu}$g/L in the original samples. This method was applied to the determination of vanadium(V) in water and biological samples with good results.

We studied a low temperature ion doping process for poly-Si Thin Film Transistor (TFT) on plastic substrates. The ion doping process was performed using an ion shower system, and subsequently, excimer laser annealing (ELA) was done for the activation. We have studied the crystallinity of Si surface at each step using UV-reflectance spectroscopy and the sheet resistance using 4-point probe. We found that the temperature has increased during ion shower doping for a-Si film and the activation has not been fulfilled stably because of the thermal damage against the plastic substrate. By trying newly a pulsed ion shower doping, the ion was efficiently incorporated into the a-Si film on plastic substrate. The sheet resistance decreased with the increase of the pulsed doping time, which was corresponded to the incorporated dose. Also we confirmed a relationship between the crystallinity and the sheet resistance. A sheet resistance of 300 ${\Omega}$/sq for the Si film of 50nm thickness was obtained with a good reproducibility. The ion shower technique is a promising doping technique for ultra low temperature poly-Si TFTs on plastic substrates as well as those on glass substrates.

Electrospinning of Polyvinylalcohol (PVA), Gelatin (GE), and PVA/GE blend solutions in acetic acid were investigated to fabricate biodegradable for tissue engineering. The morphology of the electrospun nanofibers was investigated with a field emission scanning electron microscope. The fibers have average diameters in the range 50-150 nm. The miscibility of PVA/GE blend fibers was examined by differential scanning calorimetry.The PVA and GE were immiscible in the as-spun nanofibrous structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) determined the crystallinity of the membrane and tensile strength for evaluation physical properties. An in vitro study of PVA/GE blend nanofibers was conducted. To assay the cytocompatibility and cell behavior on the PVA/GE blend nanofibrous scaffolds, cell attachment and spreading of fibroblasts seeded on the scaffolds were studied. Our results indicate that thePVA/GE blend nanofibrous matrix, particularly the one that contained 20% PVA and 80% GE could be a good candidate for tissue engineering scaffolds, because it has an excellent cell attachment and spreading for fibroblast cell.

본 논문에서는 strained Silicon-on-Insulator (sSOI) 기판에 제작된 triple-gate MOSFETs 의 이동도와 단채널 효과에 대하여 분석 하였다. Strained 실리콘에 제작된 소자는 전류의 방향이 <110> 밤항일 경우 전자의 이동도는 증가하나 정공의 이동도는 오히려 감소하는 문제점이 있다. 이를 극복하기 위하여 소자에서 전류의 방향이 <110>방향에서 45 도 회전된 <100> 방향으로 흐르게 제작하였다. Strain이 가해지지 않은 기판에 제작된 동일한 구조의 소자와 비교하여 sSOI 에 제작된 소자에서 전자의 이동도는 약 40% 정공의 이동도는 약 50% 증가하였다. 채널 길이가 100 nm 내외로 감소함에 따라 나타나는 drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) 현상, subthreshold slope (SS)의 증가 현상에서 sSOI에 제작된 소자가 상대적으로 우수한 특성을 보였으며 off-current leakage ($I_{off}$) 특성도 sSOI기판이 더 우수한 특성을 보였다.

In the study the affect of $SiO_$ depending on the characteristics of break-down, we have experimented the break-down for the $SiO_$ and variable temperature change after mading nano $SiO_$ of the diameter 12 [nm] at the epoxy resin. As the experimental results, we have continued that the break-down strength is increased at the adding change but the break-down strength is decreased again as the 0.4 [wt%] standard. Also, the break-down voltage is not changed at 25, 50 [$^{\circ}C$] as the temperate change. But break-down voltage is largely changed when temperate is rising up.

The silver nanofluids were synthesized by the pulsed wire evaporation (PWE) method in a liquid-gas mixture. The size and microstructure of nanoparticles in the deionized water were investigated by a particle size analyzer (PSA), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Also, the synthesized nanofluids were investigated in order to assess the stability of dispersion of nanofluid by the zetapotential analyzer and dispersion stability analyzer. The results showed that the spherical silver nanoparticle formed in the deionized water and mean particle size was about 50 nm. Also, when explosion times were in the range of 20$\sim$200 times, the absolute value of zeta potential was less than -27 mV and the dispersion stability characteristic of low concentration silver nanofluid was better than the high concentration silver nanofluid by turbiscan.

This study investigated the bath compositions and plating conditions and crystal structure used for achieving nickel-thallium-phosphorus deposits by means electroless plating. The electroless nickel-thallium-phosphorus deposits were achieved with a bath using sodium hypophosphite as the reducing agent and sodium citrate as the complexing agent. The depositing rate was 10.5mg.$cm^{2-1}$ .$hr^{-1 }$ from the optimistic bath composition, 0.1M nickel sulfate, 0.005M thallium sulfate, 0.2M sodium hypophosphite, and 0.05M sodium citrat and the recommended plating conditions, pH 5.5 and $90^{\circ}C$. The composition of alloy deposits determined by X-ray analysis (EDS) that the Thallium was increased with major increasing concentration of complexing agent and thallium ion in bath solution, it decreased according to the increasing concentrations of reduction agent in the bath solution, Bit Phosphorus showed a contrary to the thallium. It was observed from X-ray diffraction analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy. The crystalline structure of deposits was amorphous at the first deposited state but it was changed $Ni-T1-Ni_{5}$ $P_2$ polycrystalline when subjected to 1 hour heat treatment of more than $350^{\circ}C$. TEM observation demonstrated that the microstructure was identical to the result of the XRD at as deposited but it became $Ni-Tl-Ni_{5}$ $P_2$ polycrystalline when heated. And grain size was 10-50nm.
