We have investigated Bernal-stacked tetralayer graphene as a function of interlayer distance and perpendicular electric field by using density functional theory calculations. The low-energy band structure was found to be very sensitive to the interlayer distance, undergoing a metal-insulator transition. It can be attributed to the nearest-layer coupling that is more sensitive to the interlayer distance than are the next-nearest-layer couplings. Under a perpendicular electric field above a critical field, six electric-field-induced Dirac cones with mass gaps predicted in tight-binding models were confirmed, however, our density functional theory calculations demonstrate a phase transition to a quantum valley Hall insulator, contrasting to the tight-binding model prediction of an ordinary insulator.

Static 용융 삽입에 의하여 열가소성 고분자의 나노복합체를 제조할 때 유기화 점토에 치환된 유기화제의 길이와 packing 밀도, 그리고 열처리 온도와 시간 등이 고분자의 점토 층간 삽입에 미치는 영향에 대하여 x-ray와 FTIR spectroscopy를 이용하여 조사하였다. 초기 유기화제의 배열형태가 lateral monolayer일 때는 고분자들의 용융 삽입이 일어나지 않았으며 그 외의 경우 유기화제의 종류 및 구조 등에 따라 최종 점토 층간 간격은 큰 변화를 보이지 않았다. 열처리 시간에 따라서 층간 간격은 증가하며 더욱 규칙적으로 변하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 온도가 증가함에 따라서는 점토 층간 간격은 증가하지만 불규칙적으로 배열이 되어가는 것을 관찰하였다.

마그네슘 합금은 경량화 재료로서 많은 주목을 받고 있으나, 스테인레스 스틸과의 접합이 어려운 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 수중충격파를 이용하여 스테인레스 스틸(SUS304)과 마그네슘 합금(AZ31)의 폭발용접을 수행하고 접합특성에 관한 분석을 수행하였다. SUS304의 두께는 0.5 mm와 1 mm를 사용하였으며, 폭약과 재료의 이격거리는 45 mm, 폭약의 설치경사는 $20^{\circ}$로 하여 실험한 결과, 두 재료의 접합면에서 중간층(resolidified interlayer)이 형성되었다. 중간층의 형성을 억제하기 위하여 폭약과 재료의 거리를 60 mm로 증가시켰으며 폭약의 경사는 $30^{\circ}$으로 변경하여 폭발용접실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 폭약과 재료 사이의 간격과 경사각이 증가함에 따라 중간층이 나타나지 않는 경향을 보였다. 이 중간층에 대하여 EPMA분석한 결과, 중간층은 두 금속의 재료가 혼합되어 있는 것으로 확인 되었으며, 경도는 두 금속의 평균 경도에 해당 됨이 확인 되었다.

A series of expanded graphites is prepared from graphite oxide by changing the heat-treatment temperature, and their lithiation/de-lithiation mechanism and rate performance are examined. A featureless sloping profile is observed in their charge-discharge voltage and dilatometry profiles, which is contrasted by the stepwise plateau-like profiles observed with the pristine graphite. With an increase in the heat-treatment temperature from $250^{\circ}C$ to $850^{\circ}C$, the interlayer distance becomes smaller whereas the electric conductivity becomes larger, both of which are resulted from a removal of foreign atoms (mainly oxygen) from the interlayer gaps. The expanded graphite that is prepared by a heat-treatment at $450^{\circ}C$ delivers the best rate performance, which seems to be a trade-off between the $Li^+$ ion diffusivity that is affected by the interlayer distance and electrical conductivity.

The lyotropic behaviors to form the structure of distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC)-based liquid crystal (LC) hydrated by only propylene glycol (PG) without water were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffractions (XRD), polarized microscope (PM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). By increasing the amount of PG instead of water, it showed the phase transition to be gradually changed from anisotropic structures to other structures more close to isotropic ones and their appearance to be changed from solid-like states to liquid-like ones with more fluidity. Below 50% w/w PG, the mixtures of DSPC and PG resulted in no direct observation of LC structure through PM because they were very close to solid-states. From 55% w/w to 90% w/w of PG, the dense lamella crystalline structures were observed through PM, and their thickness and area decreased as the content of PG increased. Measured by DSC with heating process, the main phase transition from α -lamella phase to isotropic phase appeared from 52.89 °C to 47.41 °C to show linearly decreasing behaviors because PG affects the hydrophobic region of DSPC-based lamella phase. The repeating distance of the lamella phase and the interlayer distance between bilayers were calculated with XRDs and the average number of bilayers related to the thickness in LC structure was approximately estimated by combining with TEM results. The WAXS and DSC measurements showed that all of PG molecules contributed to swelling both the lipid layer in the edge region of lamella phase close to phosphate groups and the interlayer between bilayers below 90% w/w of PG. The phase and thermal behaviors were found to depend on the amount of PG used by means of dissolving DSPC as a phospholipid and rearranging its structure. Instead of water, the inducement of PG as a polar solvent in solid-lamella phase is discussed in terms of the swelling effect of PG for DSPC-based lamella membrane.

We compared c-axis tunneling characteristics of small stacked intrinsic Josephson junctions prepared on the surface of pristine, I-, and HgI$_2$-intercalated Bi$_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+x}$ (Bi2212) single crystals. The R(T) curves are almost metallic in I-Bi2212 specimens, but semiconducting in HgI$_2$-Bi2212 ones.· The transition temperatures were 82.0 K, 73.0 K, and 76.8 K for pristine Bi2212, I-Bi2212, and HgI2-Bi2212 specimens, respectively, consistent with p-T$_c$ phase diagram. Current-voltage (IV) characteristics of both kinds of specimens show multiple quasiparticle branches with well developed gap features, indicating Josephson coupling is established between neighboring CuO$_2$ planes. The critical current I$_c$ of I-Bi2212 is almost the same as of that of pristine crystals, but I$_c$ is much reduced in Hgl$_2$-Bi2212. In spite of expanded interlayer distances, the interlayer coupling is not significantly affected in I-Bi2212due to holes generated by iodine atoms. The coupling in HgI$_2$-Bi2212 is, however, weakened due to inertness of HgI$_2$ molecules and the expansion of interlayer distance. Relation between the superconducting transition temperature T$_c$ and the critical current I$_c$ seems to contradict Anderson's interlayer-pair-tunneling theory but agree with a modified version of it.

For replacing Li metal ai Lithium ton Bakery(LIB) system. we used carbon powder material which prepared by pyrolysis of phenol resin as starting material. It became amorphous carbon by pyrolysis through it\`s self condensation by thermal treatment. Amorphous carbon can be doped with Li intercalation and deintercalation because it has wide interlayer. however it has a problem with structural destroy causing weak carbon-carbon bond. So. we used ZnCl$_2$ as the pore-forming agent. This inorganic salt used together with the resin serves not only as the pore-forming agent to form open pores, which grow Into a three-dimensional network structure in the cured material, foul also as the microstructure-controlling agent to form a loose structure dope with bulky dopants. We analyzed SEM in order to find to different of structure. and can calculate distance of interlayer. CV test showed oxidation and reduction

Polypropylene (PP)과 중간층이 유기성분으로 치환된 montmorillonite (org-MMT)의 복합체를 회분식 혼련기에서 용융혼련하여 org-MMT의 구조, 연속상의 점도, 그리고 혼련시간이 복합체의 상구조 형성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 혼련조건과 연속상의 점도가 일정할 때 PP사슬이 여러 가지 org-MMT의 중간층으로 삽입되는 정도는 org-MMT자체의 구조 인자에 의하여 결정되었다. 즉, 특정한 상호인력이 존재하지 않는 경우에는 삽입과정에 발생하는 고분자 사슬의 엔트로피 감소를 보충할 수 있는 환경의 조성이 필수적이며 이러한 조건은 최적의 중간층높이와 packing density가 유지될 때 만족되었다. 열역학적으로 삽입이 가능한 org-MMT의 분산 상태는 연속상의 점도가 증가할수록 호전되었으나 그렇지 못한 경우는 연속상의 점도상승이 분산상태의 향상을 유도하지 못하였다. 본 연구에서 고려된 PP/org-MMT 복합체들은 흔련 시간이 증가됨에 따라 뭉침 현상에 의하여 상구조가 변하는 불안정성을 나타내었다.

우리는 O/Fe(100)의 원자적 구조와 MgO/Fe(100) 표면의 계면의 구조를 LEED I/V curve를 이용하여 분석하였다. 산소를 Fe(100) 표면에 흡착시켰을 때 Fe 표면의 첫 번째 층간 간격은 약 16 % 정도 팽창하는 것을 확인하였다. 1ML MgO를 Fe(100) 표면에 성장하였을 때, MgO의 O가 Fe의 on-top 위치에 자라나는 것을 확인하였고, MgO/Fe 계면의 층간 간격이 확장되는 것을 확인하였다. AIA(average intensity mixing approximation) 계산을 사용하여 단층 MgO 성장한 Fe(100) 계의 계면구조는 MgO/FeO/Fe(100)와 MgO/Fe(100)의 계면구조를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 이것은 확장된 FeO 층의 존재를 보이고 MgO/FeO/Fe(100)와 MgO/Fe(100) 두가지 계면 구조의 공존을 보인 EELS 실험 결과를 뒷받침 한다.

We investigated the magnetism of vanadium monolayers on a Pd(001) surface. The electronic structure and the magnetic properties of the V/Pd(001) system were determined with the use of the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method within the general gradient approximation. Three magnetic configurations were studied: non-, ferro-, and antiferromagnetic. From the total energy calculations, we found that the V/Pd(001) system is the most stable in the antiferromagnetic configuration. The importance of relaxation on the magnetic properties of the systems was also studied. It was found that the Pd(001) surface covered with a V monolayer undergoes considerable relaxation in which the spacing between Pd layers increases in all three magnetic configurations. Contrary to the Pd interlayer spacing, the distance between the V overlayer and the topmost Pd layer is reduced. The interlayer spacing between the V overlayer and the Pd surface layer is the largest for the antiferromagnetic configuration. In the relaxed antiferromagnetic structure, the magnitude of the calculated magnetic moments on the V atoms was $1.31\;{\mu}_B$. The presence of the vanadium monolayer does not affect the paramagnetic properties of the Pd(001) surface.
