In this study, silicon sludge from semiconductor dicing process is recycled to fabricate silica nanoparticles, which are applied as dispersing materials for electro-responsive (ER) smart fluid. In specific, metal impurities are removed from silicon sludge by acid washing to obtain the high-purity silicon powder. And then, silica nanoparticles are synthesized by facile hydrothermal method employing the silicon powder as reactant material. To control the size of silica nanoparticles, the reaction time of hydrothermal method is varied as 8, 15, 20, and 30 hours are applied to control the size of silica nanoparticles. Sizes of silica nanoparticles are increased proportionally to the reaction time owing to the increased numbers of hydrolysis and condensation reactions. As-synthesized silica nanoparticles are prepared as electro-responsive smart fluids by dispersing into silicon oil. Silica nanoparticles synthesized by 30 hours of hydrothermal reaction (SiO₂-H30) exhibit the highest shear stress of 21.4 Pa under an applied electric field strength of 3.0kV mm^-1. Such enhancement in ER performance of SiO₂-H30 among various silica nanoparticles are attribute to the reinforcing effect originated from the mixed particle size, which allowing the formation of rigid chain-like structures. Accordingly, this study successfully propose a recycling method of silicon sludge to synthesize silica nanoparticles and their derived ER fluids, which may suggest new possibility to ESG management emphasizing the eco-friendliness.

Physically responsive field-effect transistors (physi-FETs), which are sensitive to physical stimuli, have been studied for decades. However, the primary issue of separating responses by sensing materials from interferences by other subcomponents in a FET transducer under global physical stimuli has not been completely resolved. Recent challenges of structural design and employing smart materials with a large electro-physical coupling effect for flexible physi-FETs still remain. In this article, we propose directly integrating nanocomposites of barium titanate (BT) nanoparticles (NPs) and highly crystalline poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) as gate dielectrics into flexible organic FETs to precisely separate and quantify tiny variations of remnant polarization caused by mechanical stimuli. Investigations under static stimuli resulted in first-reported giant-positive piezoelectric coefficients of d33 up to 960 pC/N, presumably due to significant contribution of the intrinsic piezoelectricity of BT NPs and P(VDF-TrFE) crystallites. This approach provides a general research direction, and not limited to physic-FETs.

Comparative photoresponsive current-volt-age characteristics of n-channel PHEMT and MESFET on GaAs substrate. with (W/L)=200${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ of gates, are reported as a function of electro-optical stimulation (P\ulcorner, λ=830nm) for the first time as far as we know. Significantly different photoresponses are observed in MESFET and PHEMT, mainly due to different optoelectronic mechanisms in the formation and current conduction of channel carriers. Under high optical power, high photoresponsity with a strong non-linearity with P\ulcorner, predominantly due to a parallel conduction via a heavily doped Al\ulcornerGa\ulcornerAs donor layer, was observed in PHEMT while the optically induced drain current has been very small but monotonically increasing with optical stimulation in GaAs MESFET. We also investigated differences in optically stimulated gate leakage currents and photonic gate responses on gate voltage and drain voltage as a function of P\ulcorner. Based on the drain and gate responses to electro-optical stimulation. PHEMTs are expected to be a better candidate for high performance photonically responsive microwave device compared with MESFETs.

재료의 종류 및 특성에 따른 전기 반응 약물방출 특성을 확인하기 위하여 전압을 이용한 약물방출 시스템을 설계 하였으며 각각의 재료의 특성에 따른 약물방출 특성을 확인하였다. 약물방출은 활성탄소섬유에 친수성 관능기를 도입할 경우 방출되는 약물의 양이 37% 감소하였다. 한편 PVA에 카본블랙을 첨가하여 전도성을 향상 시킨 경우 11%의 약물만을 방출하던 PVA가 대부분의 약물(98%)을 방출하였다.

The effects of amine donors ($a:NH_2,\;b:NMe_2,\;c:NMePh,\;d:NPh_2$) and conjugation length on the molecular hyperpolarizabilities of a series of dipolar molecules have been theoretically investigated by using CPHF/6-31G method. The first hyperpolarizabilities (${\beta}$) of p-nitrobenzene derivatives increase with the donor in the order, $NH_2\;<\;NMe_2\;<\;NMePh\;<\;NPh_2$, whereas slightly different order is observed in more conjugated derivatives, i.e., $NH_2\;<\;NPh_2\;<\;NMe_2\;<\;NMePh$. The result has been attributed to the extent of charge transfer and torsion angle. Moreover, the results show that "non-traditional" ${\pi}$-conjugation effect exists in small compounds and decreases as the conjugation length between donor and acceptor increases.

Utilizing a planar five coordinating N3S2 ligand, 2,6-bis(2-methylthiophenyliminomethyl)pyridine, a pseudo 7-coordinated manganese(II) complex with two labile triflate anions in the axial positions was synthesized. The reaction of the manganese(II) complex with an oxidant, iodosylbenzene, produced a metastable high-valent manganese(IV)-oxo species at 0 ${^{\circ}C}$. The high-valent Mn(IV)-oxo intermediate was characterized with a UV-vis spectrophotometer and an electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. Reactivity studies of the Mn(IV)=O species revealed that the intermediate is capable of oxygenating $PPh_3$ and N-dealkylating N,N-dimethyl-toludine.
