  • Graphene, as a single layer of $sp^2$-bonded carbon atoms packed into a 2D honeycomb crystal lattice, has attracted much attention due to its outstanding properties such as high carrier mobility, chemical stability, and optical transparency. In order to synthesize high quality graphene, transition metals, such as nickel and copper, have been widely employed as catalysts, which need transfer to desired substrates for various applications. However, the transfer steps inevitably induce defects, impurities, wrinkles, and cracks of graphene. Here, we report a facile transfer-free graphene synthesis method through nickel and carbon co-deposited layer, which does not require separately deposited catalytic nickel and carbon source layers. The 100 nm NiC layer was deposited on the top of $SiO_2/Si$ substrates by nickel and carbon co-deposition. When the sample was annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$, the carbon atoms diffused through the NiC layer and deposited on both sides of the layer to form graphene upon cooling. The remained NiC layer was removed by using nickel etchant, and graphene was then directly obtained on $SiO_2/Si$ without any transfer process. Raman spectroscopy was carried out to confirm the quality of resulted graphene layer. Raman spectra revealed that the resulted graphene was at high quality with low degree of $sp^3$-type structural defects. Furthermore, the Raman analysis results also demonstrated that gas flow ratio (Ar : $CH_4$) during the NiC deposition and annealing temperature significantly influence not only the number of graphene layers but also structural defects. This facile non-transfer process would consequently facilitate the future graphene research and industrial applications.

  • Glassy carbon can be utilized in a variety of harsh environment due to exceptional thermal stability and chemically impermeability along with scalability and low electrical resistance. In this work, we studied effects of electron(e)-beam irradiation on thermoelectric properties of the glassy carbon film. E-beam irradiation triggered local crystallization and/or amorphization of glassy carbon thin films, which was determined by a Raman spectroscopy. The structural change by e-beam irradiation leads to the change in the doping level of the glassy carbon, which can be inferred from the change of a Seebeck coefficient and an electric conductivity. The optimal power factor we obtained for the irradiated glassy carbon film was ~200% higher than that of the non-irradiated sample.

  • The purpose of this paper is to develop the alkali-activated concrete which uses 100% fly ash as a binder without any cement. The compressive strength of the mortar was examined depending on the chemical change in alkali-activator through SEM and SEM/EDS observations and the XRD analysis. It was found from the test that the higher molar concentration induced the greater effect on the initial strength, and that $Si^{4+}$ and $Al^{3+}$ were eluted relative to the compressive strength of mortar. In addition, it was confirmed that Al and Si were determined to be most influential ingredients on the microstructural development of the mortar, and that the different ingredient of the activator was almost no change in solidity from the XRD analysis.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the basic performance of cement mortar for repair using alumina cement and nitrite can be cured in low temperature environment. For this purpose, the repair mortar used in the domestic construction site was selected and the experimental evaluation was carried out by adjusting the mixing amount by substituting alumina cement and nitrite for the blending ratio. The experimental test results confirmed that alumina cement and nitrite were replaced with the repair mortar, the initial strength was improved. Also, the chemical resistance was improved, the shrinkage behavior was decreased, and the resistance to freezing and thawing was increased. As a result, applying alumina cement and nitrite at a ratio of 2:1 at 7.5%, the surface condition was maintained for 5 months or longer and it was judged to be excellent in practical use for external structures.

  • Up until now, most protection design has been concerned primarily with concrete's exterior protection from corrosion, its waterproof ability and its reparability. However, there are many cases in which service life of the concrete is shortened because suitability of the type of concrete surface has not been thoroughly investigated in the development process. According1y, this paper presents the development and test of the material for its reparability and its protection against corrosion in the case of wet surfaces (i.e. water supply facilities, sewage systems, and port facilities) in this country. From the test, both A type and B type are excellent for durability in watertightness, chemical resistance and abrasion. Test results of adhesive strength over $15kgf/cm^2$ under both wet and dry conditions, curing conditions and various temperatures conditions were also achieved in field tests.

  • Optical filters to control light wavelength of displays or cameras are fabricated by multi-layer stacking process of low and high index thin films. The process of multi-layer stacking of thin films has received much attention as an optimal process for effective manufacturing in the optical filter industry. However, multi-layer processing has disadvantages of complicated thin film process, and difficulty of precise control of film morphology and material selection, all of which are critical for transmittance and coloring effect on filters. In this study, the composite $TiO_2$, which can be used to control of UV absorption, coated on nano hollow silica sol, was synthesized as a coating material for optical filters. Furthermore, systematic analysis of the process parameters during the chemical reaction, and of the structural properties of the coating solutions was performed using SEM, TEM, XRD and photo spectrometry. From the structural analysis, we found that the 85 nm nano hollow silica with 2.5 nm $TiO_2$ shell formation was successfully synthesized at proper pH control and titanium butoxide content. Photo luminescence characteristics, excited by UV irradiation, show that stable absorption of 350 nm-light, correlated with a 3.54 eV band gap, existed for the $TiO_2$ shell-nano hollow silica reacted with 8.8 mole titanium butoxide solution. Transmittance observed on substrate of the $TiO_2$ shell-nano hollow silica showed effective absorption of 200-300 nm UV light without deterioration of visible light transparency.

  • $CuFe_{2}O_{4}$ was accomplished by chemical rrethod and the crystallographic and magnetic properties have been studied by $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The slowly cooled sample is found to have a tetragonal spinel structure with the lattice constant $a=8.26{\pm}0.05{\AA},\;c=8.75{{\pm}}0.05{\AA}$. The $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectra between the room temperature to the Curie temperature show that the $Cu_{2+}$ ions at octahedral site have the Jahn-Teller effect and the sample exhibits a structural phase transition near 630K due to the Jahn-Teller effect. The Curie temperature is found to be 690K and it is lower than that of ceramic method.

  • Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (${\alpha}$-Si:H) layers deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) are investigated for use in silicon hetero-junction solar cells employing n-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) substrates. The optical and structural properties of silicon hetero-junction devices have been characterized using spectroscopy ellipsometry and high resolution cross-sectional transmission electron micrograph (HRTEM). In addition, the effective carrier lifetime is measured by the quasi-steady-state photocoductance (QSSPC) method. We have studied on the correlation between the order of ${\alpha}$-Si:H and the passivation quality at the interface of ${\alpha}$-Si:H/c-Si. Base on the result, we have fabricated a silicon hetero-junction solar cell incorporating the ${\alpha}$-Si:H passivation layer with on open circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$) of 637 mV.

  • ZnO 는 상온에서 3.37eV의 넓은 밴드갭과 60 meV의 엑시톤 결합에너지를 가지는 직접형 반도체로서 높은 투과성, 저가의 재료비, 비독성, 친환경적인 재료로서 발광다이오드, 디스플레이 응용분야 등 많은 부분에서 관심을 받고 있다. 유리 기판은무겁고 쉽게 깨지는 특성에도 불구하고 디스플레이 응용분야에서 폭넓게 사용되고 있으나 많은 연구자들은 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 플렉서블 기판위에서의 ZnO 성장 연구를 진행하고 있다 ZnO를 성장시키는 방법에는 molecular beam epitaxy (MEB), chemical vapordeposition (CVD), 그리고 atomic layer deposition (ALD)등많은 방법들이 있다. 이 연구에서 우리는 플렉서블기판의 플라즈마 전처리에 따른 ZnO의 구조적 그리고 광학적 특성에 대해 연구하였다. ZnO는 ALD 방법에 의해 성장되었고 반응물로는 temperature controlled bath 속에서 $10^{\circ}C$$30^{\circ}C$로 각각 온도를 유지시킨 diethylzinc (DEZn)과 distilled water ($H_2O$)를 사용하였다. 성장된 ZnO의 표면 morphology는atomic force microscope (AFM) 과 scanning electron microscope (SEM)으로 측정하였고, 광학적, 구조적특성은 Photoluminescence (PL)와 X-ray diffraction (XRD) 방법으로 각각으로 측정 되었다.
