Focused Ion Beam (FIB) systems have incorporated versatile nanomanipulators with inherent sophisticated machining capability to characterize the electrical properties of highly miniature components of electronic devices. Carbon fibers were chosen as a model system to test the applicability of nanomanipulators to microscale electronic materials, with special emphasis on the direct current current-voltage characterizations in terms of electrode configuration. The presence of contact resistance affects the electrical characterization. This resistance originates from either i) the so-called "spreading resistance" due to the geometrical constriction near the electrode - material interface or ii) resistive surface layers. An appropriate electrode strategy is proposed herein for the use of FIB-based manipulators.

The band-gap opening in graphene is a key factor in developing graphene-based field effect transistors. Although graphene is a gapless semimetal, a band-gap opens when graphene is formed into a graphene nanoribbon (GNR). Moreover, the band-gap energy can be manipulated by the width of the GNR. In this study, we propose a site-specific synthesis of a width-tailored GNR directly onto an insulating substrate. Predeposition of a diamond-like carbon nanotemplate onto a SiO2/Si wafer via focused ion beam-assisted chemical vapor deposition is first utilized for growth of the GNR. These results may present a feasible route for growing a width-tailored GNR onto a specific region of an insulating substrate.

In this work, single event spectra were measured in order to gain the microdosimetric parameters of some heavy ion radiotherapy fields at HIMAC. Microdosimetry is now a well-established technique for the investigation of complex mixed radiation field. Changes in frequency mean lineal energy y$\_$F/ as a function of thickness of A150 phantom were obtained. The absorbed dose was obtained by using y$\_$F/. A direct relation between this single event probability distribution and relative biological effectiveness (RBE) was assumed in order to estimate RBE using the response function.

The governing parameters affecting the fatigue properties have been investigated experimentally in the high carbon steel wires with 0.94 wt.%C. In order to find the crucial factors, the advanced analysis techniques such as optical 3-D profiler, focused ion beam(FIB) and transmission electron microscope(TEM) were used. The two-type steel wires with different drawing strain were fabricated. The fatigue properties were measured by hunter rotating beam tester, specially designed for thin-sized steel wires. It was found that the fatigue properties of the steel wires with high drawing strain was higher than that with other wires because of low residual stress and high adhesion condition of brass coating layer.

A single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) has been studied as a material of Nano-Eletro-Mechanical-System (NEMS) device together with various nanowires. In order for oscillation of a multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) or a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) on plane surface, it needs suspension of a CNT across trench electrodes. So we propose fabrication method of a MWCNT resonator using dielectrophoresis and show successful results of suspeneded MWNT. Thin electrodes with large gaps could not suspend small diameter MWNT but thicker electrodes could. Thin MWNT could be suspended only when the electrode gap was reduced.

Effects of ion implantation and deposition on the tribological properties of DLC film as a function of implanted energies and process times were investigated. TiC ions were implanted and deposited on the Si-wafer substrates followed by DLC coating using ion beam deposition method. In order to study tribological properties such as friction coefficient and behavior of DLC film on the modified surface as a function of implanted energies and process times, we used a ball-on-disc type apparatus in the atmospheric environment. From results of wear test, as the implanted energy was increased, the friction coefficient was more stable below 0.1.

A heavy particle accelerator is a device that accelerates particles using high energy and is used in various fields such as medical and industrial fields as well as research. However, secondary neutrons and particle fragments are generated by the high-energy particle beam, and among them, the neutrons do not have an electric charge and directly interact with the nucleus to cause radiation of the material. Quantitative evaluation of the radioactive material produced in this way is necessary, but there are many difficulties in actual measurement during or after operation. Therefore, this study compared and evaluated the generated radioactive material in the concrete shield for protons and carbon ions of specific energy by using the simulation code FLUKA. For the evaluation of each energy of proton beam and carbon ion, the reliability of the source term was secured within 2% of the relative error with the data of the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory(NSRL), which is an internationally standardized data. In the evaluation, carbon ions exhibited higher neutron flux than protons. Afterwards, in the evaluation of radioactive materials under actual operating conditions for disposal, a large amount of short-lived beta-decay nuclides occurred immediately after the operation was terminated, and in the case of protons with a high beam speed, more radioactive products were generated than carbon ions. At this time, radionuclides of ⁴⁴Sc, ³H and ²²Na were observed at a high rate. In addition, as the cooling time elapsed, the ratio of long-lived nuclides increased. For nonparticulate radionuclides, ³H, ²²Na, and for particulate radionuclides, ⁴⁴Ti, ⁵⁵Fe, ⁶⁰Co, ¹⁵²Eu, and ¹⁵⁴Eu nuclides showed a high ratio. In this study, it is judged that it is possible to use the particle accelerator as basic data for facility maintenance, repair and dismantling through the prediction of radioactive materials in concrete according to the cooling time after operation and termination of operation.

진공 여과 음극 아크(Filtered Vacuum cathodic Arc, FVA) 증착법을 이용하여 초경질 다이아몬드상 카본 박막(tetrahedral amorphous carbon, ta-C)을 합성하였다. FVA 증착법은 이온화율이 높고, 치밀한 다이아몬드상 카본 박막 증착에 적당한 이온 에너지를 갖는 등의 장점을 갖고 있다. 하지만, 이때의 카본 이온 에너지는 아크 소스의 조작만으로는 쉽게 조절되지 못한다는 단점을 갖고 있다. 다양한 물성 조절을 위해, 본 연구에서는 기판에 바이어스 전압을 인가하여 ta-C박막의 기계적 물성을 제어하였다. 기판의 바이어스 전압이 증가함에 따라, 기계적 물성 및 밀도는 바이어스 전압이 -100 V인 경우에 최대값을 보였다. 최대 경도값 및 밀도는 각각 55$\pm$3 GPa, 3.6$\pm$0.4 g/㎤로 이는 RF PACVD나 이온빔으로 증착되는 DLC의 3~5배에 이르는 값이다. 조성 및 구조 분석은 Raman spectroscopy와 NEXAFS spectroscopy를 이용하여 조사하였다. 각 바이어스 전압에 따른 박막의 물성 변화는 박막내의 $sp^2$와 $sp^3$ 혼성결합 분율의 변화의 관점으로 이해할 수 있었다.

Graphene has been emerged as a fascinating material for future nanoelectronic applications due to its extraordinally electronic properties. However, their zero-bandgap semimetallic nature is a major problem for applications in high performance field-effect transistors (FETs). Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with narrow widths (${\geq}10nm$) exhibit semiconducting behavior, which can be used to overcome this problem. In previous reports, GNRs were produced by several approaches, such as electron beam lithography patterning, chemically derived GNRs, longitudinal unzipping of carbon nanotubes, and inorganic nanowire template. Using these methods, however, the width distribution of GNRs was a quiet broad and substantial defects were inevitably occurred. Here, we report a novel approach for fabricating width-tailored GNRs by focused ion beam-assisted chemical vapor deposition (FIB-CVD). Width-tailored phenanthrene ($C_{14}H_{10}$) templates for direct growth of GNRs were prepared on $SiO_2$/Si substrate by FIB-CVD. The GNRs on the templates were synthesized at $900-1,050^{\circ}C$ with introducing $CH_4$ $(20sccm)/H_2$ (10 sccm) mixture gas for 10-300 min. Structural characterizations of the GNRs were carried out using Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy.

이온빔 스퍼터링 방법으로 n-type si 기판에 고팅된, 수소를 함유하지 않은 다이아몬드성 카본 필름의 전계 방출 특성을 조사하였다. 필름의 구조나 두께에 관계없이 전계 방출 전류는 양극과 시편의 표면사이에서 발생하는 electrical breakdown에 의해 현저히 증가하였으며, 이때의 effective work function은 약 0.1eV의 작은 값을 가지고 있었다. 텅스텐 tip을 이용하여 breakdown에 의해 발생한 시편표면의 손상수위 근처를 scanning 하면서 전계 방출 전류를 측정하여, 전계 방출이 일어나는 정확한 위치를 확인하였다. 전계 방출은 breakdown에 의해 발생한 표면 손상 부위의 모든 곳에서 균일하게 일어나는 것이 아니라 특정 부위에서 집중적으로 관찰되었다. Auger electron spectroscopy와 SEM을 이용한 분석을 통해 손상 부위 중 Si과 C의 화합물이 형성된 곳에서만 절계 방출이 일어나고 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 손상부위의 형상변화는 전계 방출의 충분조건이 아니었다. 본 연구의 결과는 breakdown에 의한 전기 방출 전류의 증가는 시편 표면의 형상 변화에 의한 전계증진의 효과보다는 표면에서 발생하는 화학적 결합의 변화에 기인하고 있음을 보여준다.
