Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with two different (L/D) aspect ratios ($7{\pm}2{\mu}m/140{\pm}30nm$ and $0.5-2{\mu}m/8-15nm$) were surface treated using nitric acid ($HNO_3$) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) prior to their deposition on carbon fibers (CF). Before the hierarchical reinforcement with CF-MWCNT, the CFs were treated with 3-glycidoxypropyltrime-thoxysilane, a coupling agent (Z6040) and with poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) a dendrimer containing an ethylenediamine core and amine surface groups. The MWCNT were deposited on the CF using two methods, by electrostatic attraction and by chemical reactions. The changes in the CF surface morphology after the MWCNT deposition were analyzed using SEM, which revealed a higher density and uniform coverage for the PAMAM-treated CF and the short MWCNTs. The interfacial adhesion of the composite materials was evaluated using the single fiber fragmentation technique. The results indicated an improvement in the interfacial shear strength with the addition of the short-MWCNTs treated with acid solutions and grafted onto the surface of the CF fiber using electrostatic attraction.

The interfacial bond strength and microstructural analysis of pre-heat treated porcelain-fused-metal (PFM) were investigated using a mechanical three-point bending tester and scanning electron microscope(SEM). Four kinds of heat treated samples were prepared as follows; A: heating $1200^{\circ}F\rightarrow1600^{\circ}F$, holding 1min, reheating $\rightarrow1850^{\circ}F$, hold 3min under vacuum, B: heating $1200^{\circ}F\rightarrow1600^{\circ}F$ holding 1min, reheating $\rightarrow1850^{\circ}F$ under vacuum condition, C: heating $1200^{\circ}F\rightarrow1600^{\circ}F$, holding 1min, reheating $\rightarrow1850^{\circ}F$, holding 3min in the air, repeat same heat treatment process under vacuum condition, D: heating $1200^{\circ}F\rightarrow1600^{\circ}F$, holding 1min, reheating $\rightarrow1850^{\circ}F$, holding 1min in the air. The three-point bending test results shows that the interfacial bond strength of specimen B and C were higher than that of A and B. The SEM study reveals that Specimen C shows the highest surface density.

Micromechanical 시험법을 이용하여 전기증착된 탄소섬유와 polyetherimide (PEI)로 강인화된 에폭시 기지재료 사이의 계면물성과 미세파괴형상을 연구하였다. 계면전단강도 향상을 위해 전기증착법을 이용하여 탄소섬유를 표면 처리하였다. PEI 함량이 증가함에 따라 소성변형과 파괴인성 증가로 인해 계면전단강도는 점차적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 미처리의 경우에 순수 PEI의 계면전단강도가 가장 큰 값을 보였다. 반면 전기증착의 경우에 계면전단강도는 PEI를 첨가함에 따라서 증가하였지만 그 증가폭은 미처리의 경우 보다 작았다. 미처리의 경우에서 순수 에폭시는 취성파괴 형상을 보인 반면 순수 PEI는 연성파괴 형상을 보였고 전기증착의 경우 순수 에폭시는 미처리와는 달리 연성파괴 형상을 보임을 관찰할 수 있었다. PEI 첨가에 의한 파괴인성 강화와 전기증착에 의한 화학결함 및 계면층의 존재는 복합재료의 계면물성 향상에 효과적으로 기여하는 것으로 고려된다.

Quantum-dot sensitized solar cells (QDSCs) are an emerging class of solar cells owing to their easy fabrication, low cost and material diversity. Despite of the fact that the maximum conversion efficiency of QDSCs is still far less than that of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (>12 %), their unique characteristics like Multiple Exciton Generation (MEG), energy band tune-ability and tendency to incorporate multiple co-sensitizers concurrently has made QDs a suitable alternative to expensive dyes for solar cell application. Lead Sulfide (PbS) Quantum dot sensitized solar cells are theoretically proficient enough to have a photo-current density ($J_{sc}$) of $36mA/cm^2$, but practically there are very few reports on photocurrent enhancement in PbS QDSCs. Recently, $Hg^{2+}$ incorporated PbS quantumdots and Cadmium Sulfide (CdS) co-sensitized PbS solarcells are reported to show an improvement in photo-current density ($J_{sc}$). In this study, we explored the efficacy of $In_2S_3$ as an interfacial layer deposited through SILAR process for PbS QDSCs. $In_2S_3$ was chosen as the interfacial layer in order to avoid the usage of hazardous CdS or Mercury (Hg). Herein, the deposition of $In_2S_3$ interfacial layer on $TiO_2$ prior to PbS QDs exhibited a direct enhancement in the photo-current (Isc). Improved photo-absorption as well as interfacial recombination barrier caused by $In_2S_3$ deposition increased the photo-current density ($J_{sc}$) from $13mA/cm^2$ to $15.5mA/cm^2$ for single cycle of $In_2S_3$ deposition. Increase in the number of cycles of $In_2S_3$ deposition was found to deteriorate the photocurrent, however it increased $V_{oc}$ of the device which reached to an optimum value of 2.25% Photo-conversion Efficiency (PCE) for 2 cycles of $In_2S_3$ deposition. Effect of Heat Treatment, Normalized Current Stability, Open Circuit Voltage Decay and Dark IV Characteristics were further measured to reveal the characteristics of device.

Composite materials are created by combining two or more component to achieve desired properties which could not be obtained with the separate components. The use of reinforcing fillers, which can reduce material costs and improve certain properties, is increasing in thermoplastic polymer composites. Currently, various inorganic fillers such as talc, mica, clay, glass fiber and calcium carbonate are being incorporated into thermoplastic composites. Nevertheless, lignocellulose fibers have drawn attention due to their abundant availability, low cost and renewable nature. In recent, interest has grown in composites made from lignocellulose fiber in thermoplastic polymer matrices, particularly for low cost/high volume applications. In addition to high specific properties, lignocellulose fibers offer a number of benefits for lignocellulose fiber/thermoplastic polymer composites. These include low hardness, which minimize abrasion of the equipment during processing, relatively low density, biodegradability, and low cost on a unit-volume basis. In spite of the advantage mentioned above, the use of lignocellulose fibers in thermoplastic polymer composites has been plagued by difficulties in obtaining good dispersion and strong interfacial adhesion because lignocellulose fiber is hydrophilic and thermoplastic polymer is hydrophobic. The application of lignocellulose fibers as reinforcements in composite materials requires, just as for glass-fiber reinforced composites, a strong adhesion between the fiber and the matrix regardless of whether a traditional polymer matrix, a biodegradable polymer matrix or cement is used. Further this article gives a survey about physical and chemical treatment methods which improve the fiber matrix adhesion, their results and effects on the physical properties of composites. Coupling agents in lignocellulose fiber and polymer composites play a very important role in improving the compatibility and adhesion between polar lignocellulose fiber and non-polar polymeric matrices. In this article, we also review various kinds of coupling agent and interfacial mechanism or phenomena between lignocellulose fiber and thermoplastic polymer.

유기반도체와 게이트 절연체 간 계면전하이동을 이해하는 것은 고성능 유기메모리, 고안정성 유기전계효과 트랜지스터 (이하 유기트랜지스터) 개발에 기여할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 계면 간 전하이동의 특이거동, 즉 홀전하가 유기반도체에서 고분자절연체로 이동되어 편재화되는 것이 편재화 준위간의 커플링에 의해 비선형적으로 가속화될 수 있음을 최초로 밝혀내었다. 이의 규명을 위해 rubrene 단결정과 Mylar 절연체를 기반으로 한 유기트랜지스터를 vacuum lamination 공정으로 제작하여 반도체-절연체 계면의 반복적인 전사와 박리에도 안정적인 소자를 개발하였다. Rubrene 단결정과 Mylar film의 표면을 각각 광유도 산소 확산법과 UV-오존 처리를 통해 결함을 생성시켰다. 그 결과, 계면 간 전하이동과 이에 의한 바이어스 스트레스 효과가 rubrene과 Mylar가 가진 편재화 준위 간 커플링에 의해 비선형적으로 급격하게 가속화되었음을 관측하였다. 특히, rubrene 단결정에 있는 적은 밀도의 편재화 준위가 계면 간 전하이동을 촉진하는데 가교역할을 함을 밝혀내었다

In this work, soft carbons produced by pyrolysis of petroleum and coal-tar pitch were used as the negative electrode for Li-ion batteries. We studeid the charge/discharge capacity and the interfacial reaction of these electrodes by constructing a half cell. Charge/discharge property was studied by a constant-current step and the interfacial reaction between the electrolyte and the surface of a carbon electrode was studied by the cyclic voltammetry. The initial charge/discharge capacity for the coal-tar pitch carbon increased exceedingly with the heat treatment temperature. On hte other hand, the capacity of the petroleum pitch carbon increased with temperature up to 1000$^{\circ}C$, thereafter decreased continuously. While the charge capacity decreased with the cycle number, the reversibility increased above 90%. In addition, the thermal stability and crystallization of petroleum and coal-tar pitches were analyzed by TGA and XRD, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the flexural, interfacial behavior, crack propagation, nonlinear behavior, effect repaired and rehabilitated with VES-LMC using RC beam with 4-point-loading test. The results were following: The test result showed that repair and rehabilitation effect increased as its depth increased, which was verified by the increase of flexural stiffness. More than 40% of stiffness was improved when the depth of repair was up to steel position. However, there was a little difference between 8cm and 12cm repaired beam. This means the repair depth must be considered. The interfacial behavior data showed that the repaired or rehabilitated beams had a little relative displacement. This means that two materials behave comparatively acting together. This suggested that interface treatment were one of the most important jobs in composite beams.
