Polyurethane microcapsules were synthesized by interfacial polymerization in an aqueous poly(ethylene glycol) dispersion with ethylenediamine as chain extender of toluene diisocyanate in perfume oil using poly(vinyl alcohol) as the stabilizing agent. The effect of chemical structure on the average particle size and distributions, morphologies, and thermal properties to design microcapsules for the sustained release system was investigated. It came to be known that polyurethane microcapsules with ethylene diamine as chain extender had a rounder, more permeable and controlled release membranes. And the release test of polyurethane microcapsules with different soft segment content was done to certify the effect of long methylene chain. According to the higher molecular weight of polyether polyol, the release rate of microencapsulated disperse dye molecular was faster.

Conducting polymers have band structures similar to those of inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. Several electronic devices have been constructed with conjugated polymers, mainly Schottky diodes and Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MISFET's). Organic semiconductor has been reported as active materials in MISFET's.$^{1.4}$ In our laboratory, $\alpha$-Sexithiencyl ($\alpha$-6T) has been synthesized and purified by sublimation method. In this study, thin films of $\alpha$-Sexithienyl were prepared on various substrates in ultra-high vacuum chamber by vacuum evaporation method, so called OMBD(Organic Molocular Beam Deposition).$^{7.9}$ The $\alpha$-Sexithienyl thin films were deposited with various deposition conditions.

From the pulp of Euphoria longana (Longan Arillus), three cerebroside molecular species have been isolated. Six known cerebrosides, soyacerebrosides I and II, 1-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(2S,3R,4E,8E)-2-(2 -lignoceroylamino)-4,8-octadecadiene-1,3-diol (long an cerebroside I) and its 8Z isomer (Iongan cerebroside II), momor-cerebroside I, and phytolacca cerebroside, were identified as major components of these cerebroside molecular species. All the cerebrosides were shown to be a mixture of geometrical isomers (8E and 8Z) of sphingosine-type or phytosphingosine-type glucocerebrosides possessing 2-hydroxy fatty acids. The structures of these cerebrosides have been determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence.

We develop single-crystal poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiopene nanowires using liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer printing via vapor phase polymerization. This direct printing method can simultaneously enable the synthesis, alignment and patterning of the nanowires from molecular ink solutions. Twoor three-dimensional complex structures of various single-crystal organic nanowires were directly fabricated over a large area using many types of molecular inks. This method is capable of generating several optoelectronic devices. LB-nTM is based on the direct transfer of various materials from a mold to a substrate via a liquid bridge between them. To demonstrate its usefulness, we used LB-nTM to fabricate nanowire field-effect transistors and arrays of 6,13-bis (triisopropyl- silylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-PEN) nanowire field-effect transistors.

We have developed novel small molecular materials for solution phosphorescent OLEDs having multilayered device structures. These novel materials are applied as an interlayer which is between a buffer layer (or hole injection layer) and an emitting layer to improve the luminance efficiency of solution green phosphorescent OLEDs. In order to form stable double layers by spincoating process, we take the advantage of solubility differences of interlayer materials and emitting materials. Using CIM3 as an interlayer, we have attained the best luminance efficiency, 36 cd/A at a given constant of 2000cd/$m^2$ in the structure of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/CIM3/CIM6:Ir(mppy)$_3$/BAlq/Alq$_3$/LiF/Al.

For most of proteins to be active, they need well-defined three-dimensional structures alone or in complex. Folding is a process through which newly synthesized proteins get to the native state. Protein folding inside cells is assisted by various chaperones and folding factors, and misfolded proteins are eliminated by the ubiquitin-proteasome degradation system to ensure high fidelity of protein expression. Under certain circumstances, misfolded proteins escape the degradation process, yielding to deposit of protein aggregates such as loop-sheet polymer and amyloid fibril. Diseases characterized by insoluble deposits of proteins have been recognized for long time and are grouped as conformational diseases. Study of protein folding mechanism is required for better understanding of the molecular pathway of such conformational diseases.

In this research paper, the thermal transport in thorium dioxide is investigated by using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics. The thermal conductivity of bulk thorium dioxide was measured to be 20.8 W/m-K, confirming reported values, and the phonon mean free path was estimated to be between 7 and 8.5 nm at 300 K. It was observed that the thermal conductivity of thorium dioxide shows a strong dependency on temperature; the highest thermal conductivity was estimated to be 77.3 W/m-K at 100 K, and the lowest thermal conductivity was estimated to be 4.3 W/m-K at 1200 K. In addition, by simulating thorium dioxide structures with different lengths at different temperatures, it was identified that short wavelength phonons dominate thermal transport in thorium dioxide at high temperatures, resulting in decreased intrinsic phonon mean free paths and minimal effect of boundary scattering while long wavelength phonons dominate the thermal transport in thorium dioxide at low temperatures.

We fabricate poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiopene patterns using liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer (LB-nTM) printing via vapor phase polymerization (VPP). LB-nTM printing method can simultaneously enable the synthesis, alignment and patterning of the nanowires from molecular ink solutions. Two- or three-dimensional complex structures of VPP-PEDOT were directly fabricated over a large area using many types of molecular inks. VPP method is a versatile technique that can be used to obtain highly conducting coatings of conjugated polymer on both conducting and non-conducting substrates. The PEDOT patterns has analyzed crystallinity from X-ray diffraction pattern and select-area diffraction patterns. In addition, the PEDOT pattern has high conductivity compared other conducting polymers.

As electron donor/acceptor materials for organic photovoltaic cells, small-molecules donors/acceptor are attracting more and more attention. In this work, we investigated the electronic structures, electrochemical properties, and charge carrier transport properties of four recently-synthesized small-molecule donors/acceptor, namely, DPDCPB (A), DPDCTB (B), DTDCPB (A1), and DTDCTB (B1), by a series of ab initio calculations. The calculations look into the electronic structure of singly oxidized and reduced molecules, the first anodic and cathodic potentials, and the electrochemical gaps. Results of our calculations were in accord with those from experiments. Using Marcus theory, we also computed the reorganization energies of hole/electron hoppings, as well as hole/electron transfer integrals of multiple possible molecular dimer configurations. Our calculations indicated that the electron/hole transport properties are very sensitive to the relative separations/orientations between neighboring molecules. Due to high reorganization energies for electron hopping, the hole mobilities in the molecular crystals are at least an order of magnitude higher than the electron mobilities.

Dynamic and equilibrium structures of a polymer chain immersed in solvent molecules have been investigated by a molecular dynamic method. The calculation employs the Lennard-Jones potential function to represent the interactions between two solvent molecules (SS) and between a constituent particle (monomer unit) of the polymer chain and a solvent molecule (CS) as well as between two non-nearest neighbor constituent particles of the polymer chain (CC), while the chemical bond for nearest neighbor constituent particles was chosen to follow a harmonic oscillator potential law. The correlation function for the SS, CS and CC pairs, the end-to-end distance square and the radius of gyration square were calculated by varying the chain length (= 5, 10, 15, 20). The computed end-to-end distance square and the radius of gyration square were found to be in a fairly good agreement with the corresponding results from the random-flight model. Unlike earlier works, the present simulation rsesult shows that the autocorrelation function of radius of gyration square decays slower than that of the end-to-end distance square.
