The $TiO_2$ sol was prepared hydrothermally in an autoclave from aqueous $TiOCl_2$ solutions as a starting precursor. Hollow fibers were obtained when the sol-gel-derived $TiO_2$ sol was treated chemically with a NaOH solution and subsequently heated in the autoclave under various conditions. A systematic analysis of the influence of different NaOH concentrations on the formation of nanotubes was carried out. The details of the nanotubular structure were investigated by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). From the TEM images, the outer and the inner diameters of the tubes were measured to be about 8 and 4 nm, respectively, the lengths were measured to be several hundreds of nanometers.

Various sizes of erbium/platinum silicided n/p-type Schottky barrier metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (SB-MOSFETs) are manufactured from $20{\mu}m$ to 10nm. The manufactured SB-MOSFETs show excellent DIBL and subthreshold swing characteristics due to the existence of Schottky barrier between source and channel. It is found that the minimization of trap density between silicide and silicon interface and the reduction of the underlap resistance are the key factors for the improvement of short channel characteristics. The manufactured 10 nm n-type SBMOSFET showed $550{\mu}A/um$ saturation current at $V_{GS}-V_T$ = $V_{DS}$ = 2V condition ($T_{ox}$ = 5nm) with excellent short channel characteristics, which is the highest current level compared with reported data.

Graphene formed by chemical vapor deposition was exposed to the various plasmas of Ar, O2, N2, and H2 to examine its effects on the bonding properties of graphene to metal. Upon the Ar plasma exposure of patterned graphene, the subsequently deposited metal electrodes remained intact, enabling successful fabrication of field effect transistor (FET) arrays. The effects of enhancing adhesion between graphene and metals were more evident from O2 plasmas than Ar, N2, and H2 plasmas, suggesting that chemical reaction of O radicals induces hydrophilic property of graphene more effectively than chemical reaction of H and N radicals and physical bombardment of Ar ions. From the electrical measurements (drain current vs. gate voltage) of field effect transistors before and after Ar plasma exposure, it was confirmed that the plasma treatment is very effective in controlling bonding properties of graphene to metals accurately without requiring buffer layers.

Color tracking behavior of in the fringe-field switching (FFS) mode using a liquid crystal with positive dielectric anisotropy has been studied. In the in-plane switching and vertical alignment devices, color chromaticity at normal direction changes from bluish to yellowish white linearly with increasing grey levels from dark to white state. Interestingly, abnormal behavior in color tracking is observed in FFS devices using a liquid crystal with positive dielectric anisotropy, that is, it changes from bluish to yellowish up to a certain middle grey level but turns over to bluish white with further increasing from a grey level to a fully white state. In this paper, we analyze this abnormal effect from the calculated and experimental results.

Cu₂O films as a photocathode for photoelectrochemical water splitting were potentiostatically deposited on FTO glasses. The morphology and composition of the electrodeposited Cu₂O films were adjusted by the applied potentials. The potential-dependent grain size of Cu₂O films was characterized by XRD and SEM analysis. Photoelectrochemical properties of the fabricated Cu₂O photocathodes were investigated with photocurrents as a function of potentials under 1 sun condition of 100mW/㎠. Photocurrents of the electrodeposited Cu₂O films were controlled with the tailored surface morphologies of Cu₂O photocathodes.

CHF characteristics of nano- fluids were investigated with different volumetric concentrations of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. Pool boiling experiments indicated that the application of nano-fluids, instead of pure water, as a cooling liquid significantly increased the CHF. SEM (scanning electron microscope) observations subsequent to the pool boiling experiments revealed that nanoparticles were coated on the heating surface during pool boiling of nano-fluids. In order to investigate the roles of nanoparticles in CHF enhancement ofb nano-fluids, pool boiling experiments were performed using (a) a nanoparticle-coated heater, prepared by pool boiling of nano-fluids, immersed in pure water and (b) a nanoparticle-coated heater immersed in nano-fluids. The results demonstrated two different roles of nanoparticles in CHF enhancement using nano-fluids: the effect of nanoparticles coated on the heater surface and the effect of nanoparticles suspended in nano- fluids.

In this study, we fabricated the master metallic nano-stamper with nano pillar patterns to apply replication processes which is adequate for mass production. Master nano patterns with various hole diameters between 300 nm and 1000 nm was fabricated by e-beam lithography. After the seed layer was deposited on the master nano patterns using e-beam evaporation, the nickel was electroformed. In each step, the shape and surface roughness of their patterns were analyzed using SEM and AFM.

Cobalt (cyclam) complex has been successfully immobilized onto SBA-15, and proven to be an active catalyst for the epoxidation of styrene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide as a terminal oxidant. The selectivity for styrene oxide was observed to be up to 66% with 40% styrene conversion after 12h reaction time. The reversible redox cycle between Co(III) and Co(II) couple which was supposed to play key role during the epoxidation reaction was supported by a cyclic voltametry analysis. The textural properties of the catalyst was characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, and TEM analysis.

Hydrotalcite, layered double hydroxides (LDH), with hexagonal morphology has been rapidly synthesized by microwave reaction within 1 hour by urea hydrolysis from homogeneous solution. Different synthesis parameters, Mg/Al molar ratio, microwave reaction temperature and microwave power were systematically investigated. Pure hydrotalcite phase was obtained for Mg/Al ratios of 2:1 and 3:1, and higher reaction temperature gave higher crystallinity. The hydrotalcite synthesized at 600W power shows the highest crystallinity and more homogeneous crystal size distribution. The hydrotalcite samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), simultaneous thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Scanning electron micrograph (SEM).

The increasing use of nano-positioners in a wide variety of laboratory and industrial applications has created a need for nano-mechatronics education in all engineering disciplines. The subject of nano-mechatronics is broad and interdisciplinary. This article focuses on the way nano-mechatronics is taught in department of mechanical engineering at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). As one model of nano-positioning systems, design and experimental methodology is presented in this article. For design phase, the stiffness and resonant frequencies are found analytically and verified by using a commercial finite element analysis program. Next, for experimental phase, various tests are performed to access the performances of the designed nano-positioner, for example, sine-tracking, multi-step response and travel-range check etc. Finally, the definition of 'separation frequency' is described and some comments are discussed.
