Liquid crystals are useful for a wide range of applications due to their exceptional properties. Doping of liquid crystals with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), even at very low concentrations, produces a detectable effect on the liquid crystal (LC) properties that can be very attractive for various functions. In this study, an attempt was made to investigate the effect of CNTs on the electrical properties of a short-pitch and high-spontaneous-polarization ferro-electric LC mixture, FLC-6304, at different temperatures. The inclusion of the CNTs significantly reduced the polarization at temperatures well within the $SmC^*$ phase, but the effect was gradually reversed as the transition temperature was approached. The insertion of the CNTs also reduced the response time and the rotational viscosity of the FLC mixture, which is highly desirable in the LCD industry.

A carbon nanotube (CNT) of diameter ~20 nm has been synthesized by spray pyrolysis of turpentine oil using Ni/Fe catalyst. Pellet of CNTs has been used as a target to produce semiconducting carbon thin film of band gap 1.4 eV. Presence of oxygen pressure in the pulse laser deposition (PLD) chamber helped to control the $sp^3/sp^2$ ratio to achieve the desired band gap. Results are discussed with the help of Raman spectra, SEM TEM micrographs and optical measurements suggest that semiconducting carbon thin film deposited by PLD technique has retained its nanotubes structure except that its diameter has increased from 20 nm to 150 nm.

Carbon nanotube(CNT)s have been considered as one of the most unique materials due to the their superior mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. Therefore, numerous studies have been performed for the utilization of CNTs. This review article focuses on the recent research trends on the utilization of CNTs for new interconnect materials in electronics packaging. Major contents mentioned are the direct interconnection technology using CNTs and the main properties of polymer/CNTs composite materials. This article is aimed at the reviewing of important results from the recent studies and providing the straightforward understanding of the results through the mutual analysis and a industrial viewpoint.

We fabricated the 1-inch diode type flat lamp using CNTs, which were grown directly on soda-lime glass substrate at 600 ∼ 650 $^{\circ}C$ by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD) of acetylene gas. Turn- on field was about 2.8 V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. We observed that uniform and high brightness had been obtained. The brightness of CNT flat lamp was measured up to about 14 kcd/$m^2$ at 2000V in spacing of 500 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The results showed that the CNTs were very good emission source and suitable for application in the lamp.

We suggest a CNT-based gas sensor for breath alcohol measurement. The sensor was composed of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) thin film on flexible PES (polyethersulfone) substrate, and the SWCNTs thin film was formed by multiple spray-coating with SWCNTs solution which was well-dispersed, highly controlled and functionalized in ethanol solvent. In this work, three types of SWCNTs thin films were deposited with changes in the number of spray-coatings to 20, 40 and 60 times in order to compare electrical response properties of the SWCNTs thin films. from the fabricated sensors, conductance and capacitance responses were measured and discussed. Alcohol gas sensors have been commercialized widely as gauge for breath alcohol measurement which is applicable to checking whether car drivers are drinking-driving or not. Our alcohol gas sensors showed good sensitivity and linearity even at room temperature.

In this paper, we present an experimental results of 15kV class high-volatge power supply using the LLC resonant half-bridge converter for CNT lamp. The resonant current of the LLC resonant half-bridge converter prototype in the steady state was stable. The output voltage of prototype converter was maintained at about 15kV in the steady state.

To Smoothness of semiconducting materials in power cable, we have investigated those of semiconducting materials showed by changing the content of carbon black and Carbon Nanotube. Then they were produced as sheets after pressing for 20 minutes at $180^[{\circ}C]$ with a pressure of $200[kg/cm^2]$. The content of conductive carbon black and Carbon Nanotube was the variable, and their contents were 20-40[wt%] and 2-6[wt%] respectively. The smoothness was measured by JSM-6400.

ZnO nanowire를 기반으로 하는 nanogenerator는 미세한 움직임을 전기 에너지로 변환 시키는 압전 에너지 하베스팅 기술로 기존 에너지 하베스터와 비교하여 사용환경의 제약이 적고, 소형화가 가능한 장점으로 주목을 받고 있다. 특히 혈류, 심장박동, 호흡 등 인체 활동 에너지를 이용한 발전 소자 등의 활용이 가능하여 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만, 최근 발표된 film like Vertical 구조의 nanogenerator는 nanowire의 구조 취약성으로 인해 내구성이 좋지 못한 단점이 있다. 또한 ZnO nanowire의 내부 O2 결함 및 표면 OH-기의 흡착에 의한 특성 저하가 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 nanogenerator의 내구성을 향상시키기 위해 capping layer로 실리콘 계 유무기 하이브리드를 적용하여 코팅 물질 및 코팅 방법을 최적화 하였으며 상부 전극을 CNT-Ag nanowire 소재로 대체하여 유연기판에 대응코자 하였다. 또한 APP(Atmosphere Pressure Plasma)와 ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma)장비를 사용하여 ZnO nanowire를 표면처리하였고, 각각의 플라즈마 표면처리의 영향에 대해 조사하였다. XPS를 통하여 OH-기의 제거 유무를 확인하였으며, 소자의 발전 특성의 향상을 확인 하였다.

This article reviews technical trend in research of stretchable electrodes for wearable devices, bio-integrated devices, and stretchable electronics. Stretchable electronics is new emerging class of electronics following flexible electronics. One of the most difficult challenges in the development of stretchable electronic is to realize high performance stretchable electrodes with a low resistivity and high strain failure and stretchability against severe strain of the substrate. For this reason, there are many reports on the promising stretchable electrodes including CNT, graphene, Ag nanowire, and composite materials. We outline the recent research for stretchable substrate and stretchable electrode materials to realize highly stretchable electrodes.

In this study, Electro spinning was carried out using Cabon nanotube 0.1%-Polyacrylonitrile 3%-Dimethylformamide 17% agitation solution. It was investigated the solute and solvent correlations according to the electro spinning voltages ranging form 5 to 40 kV, based on the SEM image. Except voltage 25 kV, electro spinning was failed due to the lack of electro spinning (less than 60%). Voltage 25 kV was showed excellent properties, and was confirmed Cabon nanotube 58.1 nm and diameter of Cabon nanotube + Polyacrylonitrile 1.76 ㎛ as shown SEM image. Also, the tensile test results were showed that SK Chemical prepreg electro spinning angle of 0 and 90 degrees were 137 MPa and 60 MPa, respectively.
