Electrodeposited Ni and Ni-SiC composite coatings were prepared on Cu substrates by using the Ni-Sulfamate electrolytic bath. Thus prepared samples were subjected for the two different types of post surface modification techniques; i.e. Laser Surface Texturing (LST) and Ultrasonic Nano Surface Modification (UNSM), respectively in order to investigate their effects on surface and interface related properties of the coatings. Hemispherical dimples, with 80 to 200 um dimple spacing, were created and examined on the surfaces of the materials studied. The results revealed that micro-surface texturing with 150 um dimple spacing considerably improved the coefficient of friction. Dimple spacing accuracy and incorporated second phase ceramic particles both contributed significantly to reduction in coefficient of friction. On the other hand, application of UNSM considerably modified the surface topography, led to increase the Vickers microhardness, and reduced the wear and coefficient of friction as compared to non UNSM treated Ni and Ni-SiC samples.

In the present study, a hybrid model of artificial neural network (ANN) and internet of things (IoT) is proposed to overcome the difficulties in deriving governing equations and numerical solutions of the dynamical behavior of the nano-systems. Nano-structures manifest size-dependent behavior in response to static and dynamic loadings. Nonlocal and length-scale parameters alongside with other geometrical, loading and material parameters are taken as input parameters of an ANN to observe the natural frequency and damping behavior of micro sensors made from nanocomposite material with piezoelectric layers. The behavior of a micro-beam is simulated using famous numerical methods in literature under base vibrations. The ANN was further trained to correlate the output vibrations to the base vibration. Afterwards, using IoT, the electrical potential conducted in the sensors are collected and converted to numerical data in an embedded mini-computer and transferred to a server for further calculations and decision by ANN. The ANN calculates the base vibration behavior with is crucial in mechanical systems. The speed and accuracy of the ANN in determining base excitation behavior are the strengths of this network which could be further employed by engineers and scientists.

Micro-fluidic chip has been fabricated by lithography process on silicon or glass wafer, casting using PDMS, injection molding of thermoplastics or 3D printing, etc. Among these processes, 3D printing can fabricate micro-fluidic chip directly from the design without master or template for fluidic channel fabricated previously. Due to this direct printing, 3D printing provides very fast and economical method for prototyping micro-fluidic chip comparing to conventional fabrication process such as lithography, PDMS casting or injection molding. Although 3D printing is now used more extensively due to this fast and cheap process done automatically by single printing machine, there are some issues on accuracy or surface characteristics, etc. The accuracy of the shape and size of the micro-channel is limited by the resolution of the printing and printing direction or layering direction in case of SLM type of 3D printing using UV curable resin. In this study, the printing direction and thickness of each printing layer are investigated to see the effect on the size, shape and surface of the micro-channel. A set of micro-channels with different size was designed and arrayed orthogonal. Micro-fluidic chips are 3D printed in different directions to the micro-channel, orthogonal, parallel, or skewed. The shape of the cross-section of the micro-channel and the surface of the micro-channel are photographed using optical microscopy. From a series of experiments, an optimal printing direction and process conditions are investigated for 3D printing of micro-fluidic chip.

초정밀 공작기계의 기능은 초정밀 운동에 의해 대부분 지배된다. 이러한 운동을 생성하는 고정밀 베어링의 운동정밀도는 이미 나노미터 레벨에 도달하고 있으며, 이러한 운동정밀도를 나노미터 레벨의 정밀도로 측정하는 것(정밀나노계측)이 중요한 과제가 되고 있다. 예를 들어, 초정밀선반 등에 있어서, 공기베어링을 대표로 하는 높은 회전정밀도를 갖는 회전축(주축)이 사용되고 있으며, 따라서 이러한 고정밀 주축의 회전정밀도를 나노미터 레벨의 정밀도로 평가하는 기술은 매우 중요하다. (중략)

The patterned vertical alignment (PVA) display showed good electro-optic properties such as wide viewing angle, fast response time, high Contrast Ratio. However, the device has patterned electrode on both top and bottom electrodes which requires high accuracy of assembling of top and bottom substrates in order to exhibit a high performance. So, they have disadvantage about low yield. In order to resolve these problem, in this paper, we studied about top substrate pattern free vertical alignment device associated with surface polymer stabilization using the UV curable monomer. This method shows simple progress, low cost and good electro-optic properties such as high transmittance and fast response time.

본 논문은 집적화된 소형의 분광모듈 구현을 위한 나노회절격자의 설계 및 제작에 관한 연구이다. 제안된 평면 구조의 나노회절격자는 회절격자로부터 반사된 빛을 집광하기 위하여 비등간격의 구조로 설계되었으며, 400 nm에서 650 nm까지의 파장 대역폭에서 균등한 분해능을 가지도록 비대칭 V 홈 구조를 가지도록 설계되었다. 최적 설계된 나노회절격자를 저가, 대량 생산에 적합한 UV-NIL 공정을 통해 제작하기 위하여 FT-IR 흡수스펙트럼을 분석하였으며, 이를 통해 5 nm 이내의 치수 정밀도를 가진 고분자 나노회절격자를 제작 할 수 있었다. 제작된 고분자 기반 나노회절격자를 이용한 집적형 분광모듈은 250 nm의 파장 대역폭에서 각 첨두파장의 기준으로 5 nm의 균등한 파장 분해능을 확인하였으며, 이는 다양한 분광모듈의 적용분야에 적용될 것으로 기대된다.

The gate-length dependence of maximun oscillation frequency $f_{MAX}$ is modeled by using scaling equations of equivalent-circuit parameters extracted from measured S-parameters of Nano-scale MOSFETs. The accuracy of the modeled $f_{MAX}$ is verified by observing good agreements with measured ones. It is observed that the $f_{MAX}$ initially increases with decreasing $L_g$ and then $f_{MAX}$ becomes saturated from $L_g$ less than 65nm.

A laser interferometer is the unique measurement device that can measure the range up to a few meters with sub-nano resolution and this characteristic makes it as the important sensing device for the emerging nano-mechatronics technologies. The laser interferometer, however, is very sensitive to the environments such as temperature, humidity, sound noises, vibrations and air turbulences and these factors result in a few hundred nano meter errors. There have been many efforts to reduce these environmental errors. The output of the laser interferometer is assumed to be the sum of a real displacement and a Markov process noise. The purpose of this paper is to develop Kalman filter algorithms to reduce the laser interferometer measurement errors by exploiting the information of displacements in position-servo systems.

In the present study, for first time the size dependent vibration behavior of a rotating functionally graded (FG) Timoshenko nanobeam based on Eringen's nonlocal theory is investigated. It is assumed that the physical and mechanical properties of the FG nanobeam are varying along the thickness based on a power law equation. The governing equations are determined using Hamilton's principle and the generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) is used to obtain the results for cantilever boundary conditions. The accuracy and validity of the results are shown through several numerical examples. In order to display the influence of size effect on first three natural frequencies due to change of some important nanobeam parameters such as material length scale, angular velocity and gradient index of FG material, several diagrams and tables are presented. The results of this article can be used in designing and optimizing elastic and rotary type nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS) like nano-motors and nano-robots including rotating parts.
