CeO₂ nanoparticles, employed in a lot of fields due to their excellent oxidation and reduction properties, are synthesized through a solvothermal process, and a high specific surface area is shown by controlling, among various process parameters in the solvothermal process, the type of solvent. The synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles are about 11~13 nm in the crystallite size and their specific surface area is about 65.38~84.65 ㎡/g, depending on the amount of ethanol contained in the solvent for the solvothermal process; all synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles shows a fluorite structure. The dispersibility and microstructure of the synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles are investigated according to the species of dispersant and the pH value of the solution; an improvement in dispersibility is shown with the addition of dispersants and control of the pH. Various dispersing properties appear according to the dispersant species and pH in the solution with the synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles, indicating that improved dispersing properties in the synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles can be secured by applying dispersant and pH control simultaneously.

In this study, Nano and micro-filler mixture composites were fabricated by fixed value of $SiO_2$ nano-filler 0.4 [wt%] according to increase of $SiO_2$ micro-filler [wt%] from 1 to 10. Composites with a good dispersion of mixed $SiO_2$ Nano and micro-particles in the epoxy resins were prepared and experiments were performed to measure the dielectric breakdown strength properties with various temperature and thickness. The dielectric strength properties are compared and analyzed with respect to nano/micro-composites filled with $SiO_2$ fillers less than properties obtained for nanocomposites.

Recently, Nanotechnology becomes a major issue in most part of industries. Nanotechnology is expected to develop various application products due to nano material mired composites is improved physical and electrical properties compared to conventional composites materials. Dielectric and insulation materials need to develop and improve like other field about nanotechnology. In this paper, we reported dielectric dispersion by size(no filler, $1.2{\mu}m$, 500 nm, 10 nm), frequencies(60, 120, 1 kHz), and temperatures($30{\sim}170^{\circ}C$). Dielectric constant of composites materials with filler shows higher than composites materials without filler and increased depending on rising temperatures in low frequency region. It was the effect that nano-filler and impurities in composites contributed to electrical conductivity. And dielectric properties depending on temperatures shows to change in low frequency region dramatically We analyzed interfacial polarization in low frequency region($10^{-2}$ Hz) and oriented polarization in high frequency region($10^{-5{\sim}6}$ Hz) on composites materials.

가공이 쉬우면서도 성능이 우수한 염료 감응 태양 전지(DSSC)용 상대 전극을 제조하기 위하여 다중벽 탄소 나노튜브(MWCNT) 기반의 고충전 나노복합 페이스트를 제조하고, MWCNT의 분산 제어가 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하여 보았다. MWCNT의 분산성을 향상시키기 위하여 폴리스티렌 기반의 기능성 블록 공중합체를 리빙 라디칼 중합법으로 합성하여 MWCNT의 표면 개질제로 사용하였으며, 적절한 용매 조건의 선택을 통하여 고충전 나노복합 페이스트의 가공성이 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. MWCNT의 분산 제어를 통해 이를 상대 전극으로 도입한 DSSC의 광전 변환 효율이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 볼밀법을 이용한 MWCNT의 물리적 분산을 통해서도 검증할 수 있었다. 미량의 platinum(Pt) 나노입자와 복합화시킬 경우, 표준 Pt 상대 전극보다도 더 우수한 성능을 가지는 MWCNT 기반 상대 전극을 제조할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The surface phonon is defined as a coherent vibrational excitation of surface atoms propagating along the surface. It is characterized by a phonon dispersion curves, which were extensively studied in 1990's using helium atom scattering and high-resolution electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (HREELS)[1].The understanding is mainly based on the theoretical framework of a classical bond model or cluster calculations. The recent sample preparation and first principles calculations open the naval way to deep insight for surface phonon problems. The surface phonon dispersion on the hydrogen-terminated Si(111)-($1{\times}1$) surface [H:Si(111)] is the typical system and already reported experimentally [2] and theoretically [3], although the understandingis incomplete. The sample contaminated by the oxygen atoms on the surface and the calculations were also classical. In this study, firstly, we have prepared an ultra-clean H:Si(111) surface [4] and measured the surface phonon dispersion curvesusing HREELS. Secondly, we have performed first-principles density functional calculations with the projector augmented wave functionals, as implemented in VASP, using generalized gradient approximations. We used aslab of six silicon layers and both top and bottom surfaces were terminated with hydrogen atoms. Finally, we have compared with the surface phonon dispersion of deuterium-terminatedSi(111)-($1{\times}1$) surface[5] and led to our conclusions. The Si-H stretching and the bending modes are observed at 258.5 and 78.2 meV, respectively. These energies are the same as the previously reported values [2], but the energy-loss peaks at the lower energy regions are dramatically shifted. Through this combination study, we have formulated the procedure of preparing ultra-clean H:Si(111)/D:Si(111), which was confirmed by HREELS vibrational analysis. The Si surface will be utilized for further nano-physics research as well as for the materials for nano-fubrication.

In the present work, water-based gold nanofluids were synthesized by the solution plasma processing (SPP). The size distribution and the shape of gold nanoparticles in the nanofluids were investigated using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). The dispersion stability of gold nanofluids was characterized using zeta potential, as well. The thermal properties of gold nanofluids were measured by utilizing lambda measurement device. Nanofluids containing nanoparticles with $64.0{\pm}42.1\;nm{\sim}18.10{\pm}5.0\;nm$ in diameter were successfully synthesized. As diameter of nanoparticles decreased, dispersion stability of nanofluids increased and the enhanced ratio of thermal conductivity increased. The nanofluid with nanoparticles of $18.10\;{\pm}\;5.0\;nm$ in diameter showed approximately 3% improvement in thermal conductivity measurement and this could be due to the enhanced Brownian movement.

A method of functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) at room temperature using dry ozone gas is described. The resulting MWNT were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Combined to these analyses and solubility in liquids, it could be concluded that the dry ozone gas exposure introduces polar functional groups such as carboxylic groups to MWNT similar to acidic modification of MWNT. Particularly, the stable dispersion of MWNT in water after ozone treatment above a critical level could be obtained, implying potential bio-application. The hydrophilic functional groups on the MWNT introduced by ozone oxidation were helpful in improving the interaction with functional groups in PA6 such as $-NH_2$ and -CONH- resulting in improved mechanical properties.

본 논문에서는 MWCNT 분산도가 증가된 새로운 전도성 형상 기억 폴리우레탄을 연구하였고 전기적 특성을 검출하기 위한 실험과 작동 성능을 측정하기 위한 실험들을 수행하였다. 전이온도 이하 범위에서의 온도변화에 따른 저항변화는 거의 없었으며, 시편이 100% 신장됨에 따라 저항값도 100% 증가하였다 (비저항 300% 증가). 작동변위는 페이로드가 증가함에 따라 선형적으로 줄어들었다. 그리고, CSMPU 작동기의 보다 세부적인 특성 및 성능을 알기 위해서는 더 많은 연구와 실험이 필요하다.

In this study, the effects of the dispersants, i.e., Hypermer KD-2 and poly(l-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP), and their concentration on the dispersion stability of Ni nanoparticles ($10nm{\sim}40nm$) in ethanol were investigated by using a visual inspection, a transmission profile (Turbiscan), and a zeta potential measurement. The transmission profiles measured by Turbiscan showed that the particle size increased over the entire height of the sample for suspensions with both the dispersants without showing any particle coalescence and sedimentation. The visual inspection also confirmed that the Ni suspensions with Hypermer KD-2 and PVP were very stable for more than a year. The zeta potential values varied from positive to negative with increasing the dispersant's concentration. The dispersion stability of the suspensions was not affected by both the dispersant's concentration and the zeta potential values. The observed suspension stability of Ni nanoparticles was attributed to the steric effect for the Hypermer KD-2 and to the bridging effect for the PVP.
