Nanowire와 nanorod 같은 1차원의 반도체 재료는 디멘젼과 크기와 물리적 특성과의 관계 등을 연구하는데 중요한 역할을 하며 laser ablation, arc discharge, chemical vapor depostion, vapor phase transport Process와 solution등의 방법으로 성공적으로 합성되었다. ZnO 는 3.37eV의 넓은 밴드갭과 다른 넓은 밴드갭 재료에 비해 높은 exciton bindng energy (60meV)를 가지며 UV LED, laser diode에 적용하기 유리하고 최근 디스플레나 나노 광전소자로서의 가능성 이 대두되면서 최근 이에 관한 연구가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열적탄소환원법(carbothermal reduction process)으로 ZnO와 graphite 분말을 1:1 중량비로 혼합한 분말을 90$0^{\circ}C$, 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 air 분위기에서 20분간 반응 후 로 내에서 냉각 하였다. 직경 이 50nm-1000nm, 길이가 수 미크론인 내부 결함이 전혀 없는 육각형 단결정의 nanowire가 합성되었고 XRD, FE-SEM과 TEM으로 조성 및 형상, 내부구조를 분석하였다. 합성된 ZnO nanowire는 직경 이 변하는 부분에서 성장방향으로의 계단을 형성하였고 이는 layer by layer 방법으로 nanowire가 성장한다는 것을 나타낸다.

In this paper, we have investigated the sintering of the organometallic silver electronic ink. We have changed the sintering temperature from 100 to $300^{\circ}C$ in the various atmospheres. The sheet resistance was abruptly changed at the temperature range between 115 and $120^{\circ}C$, due to the f of the crystalline silver resulting from the dissociation of Ag complex, which phenomenon has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The grain sizes of Ag films were about 50nm and 70nm at the sintering temperatures of 115 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Although dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in air has been applied to a wider range of aftertreatment processes for HAPs (Hazardous Air Pollutants), due to its high electron density and energy, its potential use as precharging dust particles is not well known. In this work, we measured size distributions of bimodal aerosol particles and estimated collection efficiency of the particles by an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) using DBD as particle charger. To examine the particle collection with DBD charger, nano size particles of NaCl(20∼100nm) and DOS (50∼500nm) were generated by a tube furnace and an atomizer, respectively. For experimental conditions of 60㎐, 11㎸ and 60 lpm, the particle collection efficiency for the hybrid system was over 85%, based on the number of particles captured.

We have designed a high transmission C-shaped aperture using finite differential time domain (FDTD) technique. The C-shaped aperture was fabricated in the aluminum thin film on a glass substrate using a focused ion beam (FIB) milling. Nano-size patterning was demonstrated with a vacuum contact device to keep tight contact between the Al mask and the photoresist. Using 405 nm laser, we recorded a 50 nm-size dot pattern on the photoresist with the aperture and analyzed the spot size dependent on the dose illuminated on the aperture.

태양전지에서 SiNX층은 반사방지막 역할과 태양전지 소자 보호 역할 2가지를 동시에 하고 있다. 태양전지에서 반사방지막은 굴절률 1.97, 두께 76 nm가 이론적으로 최적의 상태이다. PECVD장비를 이용하여 SiNx 층을 증착하였다. SiNX층 증착 시에 RF 파워와 혼합 가스를 변화한 후 굴절률을 측정하였다. RF 파워는 100~400 W로 변화시켰고 혼합가스 변화는 SiH4가스와 N2, H2, N2+H2 가스 각각을 같이 넣어 주면서 증착하였다. SiNX 가스 자체에 N2가 80%섞여 있는 가스를 사용하기 때문에 SiH4 가스자체 만으로도 SiNx층을 형성 할 수 있다. RF파워 300 W, SiH4 50 sccm, 기판 온도 $300^{\circ}C$, 공정시간 63초에서 굴절률 1.965, 두께 76 nm를 갖는 SiNx층을 형성 할 수 있었고 개방전압: 0.616 V, 전류밀도: 37.78 mA/$cm^2$, 충실도:76.59%, 효율: 17.82%로 가장 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있었다.

We prepared Cu oxides, and Ni and Pd-TiO2@SiO2 core-shellnanostructures, and tested their CO oxidation performances by temperature-programmed mass spectrometry. We found the starting temperatures of CO oxidation are around $200^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$ for Ni and Pd-TiO2@SiO2 nanostructures, respectively. Cu oxides are cubes with 50~200 nm with, prepared with different concentrations of NaOH and ascorbic acid. For the core-shell structures, we prepared 100 nm SiO2 spheres, first coated the surface with TiO2 precursor, and then coated with Ni and Pd. Their characteristics are further examined by scanning electron microscopy, optical microscope, FT-IR, and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy.

This study investigated the effects of certain specific wavelengths of lighting on the autonomic nervous system (ANS) using the heart rate variability (HRV) as an index. Six subjects with normal color vision participated n this study between 15:00 and 17:00 hr to neutralize any visual differences arising from circadian rhythm. The environmental conditions of the laboratory were maintained in complete darkness and the temperature was equilibrated at 24$\Box$ with a relative humidity of 60%. Subjects were only subjected to light stimulation when the pupil of dyes attained a minimum size of 2 mm by projecting illumination equalized with the same spectral radiance of 500-700 nm with 50-nm internal radiance. HRV was calculated from electrocardiogram (ECG) with systematic respiratory control at 0.35 Hz. The results suggest that illumination with certain wavelengths may induce ANS activation.

To investigate the effect of the parameters of the plasma arc discharge process on the particle formation and particle characteristics of the iron nano powder, the chamber pressure, input current and the hydrogen volume fraction in the powder synthesis atmosphere were changed. The particle size and phase structure of the synthesized iron powder were studied using the FE-SEM, FE-TEM and XRD. The synthesized iron powder particle had a core-shell structure composed of the crystalline $\alpha$-Fe in the core and the crystalline $Fe_3O_4$ in the shell. The powder generation rate and particle size mainly depended on the hydrogen volume fraction in the powder synthesis atmosphere. The particle size increased simultaneously with increasing the hydrogen volume fraction from 10% to 50%, and it ranged from about 45nm to 130 nm.

The synthesis of W-l5wt%Cu nanocomposite powder by hydrogen reduction of ball milled W-Cu oxide mixture was investigated in terms of powder characteristics such as particle size, mixing homogeneity and micropore structure. It is found that the micropores in the ball milled oxide (2-50 nm in size) act as an effective removal path of water vapor, followed by the formation of dry atmosphere at reaction zone. Such thermodynamic condition enhances the nucleation of W phase but suppresses the growth process, being in favor of the formation of W nanoparticles (about 21 nm in size). In addition, the superior mixing homogeneity of starting oxide mixture turned out to Play a significant role for forming extraordinary chemical homogeneity of W-l5wt%Cu nanocomposite powder.

We have realized the swept source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT) by using the self-fabricated wavelength swept laser(wavelength tuning range : 80nm, line-width : 0.12nm, wavelength sweeping rate : 50Hz). In addition, we have used the dual balanced detector that could make a mirror image in OCT display suppressed. We can also fabricate the comb filter of Michelson interferometer type for fast-signal processing in OCT. Using this SS-OCT system for measuring an mirror, a 1mm-depth glass and an onion, we confirmed that the in vivo epidermal cross-sectional images for them can be obtained appropriately.
