본 논문에서는 도파모드공진을 이용한 포화흡수체 반사기를 제안하였다. 포화흡수체로는 탄소나노튜브(CNT)를 사용하였다. 제안된 반사기는 CNT의 두께 변화 없이 modulation depth를 키울 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 제안하는 반사기의 fill factor(F)와 CNT의 두께변화에 따른 modulation depth, 대역폭, 포화되었을 때의 최대 반사율의 특징을 알아보았다. 제안된 반사기는 포화에너지를 줄일 수 있다는 장점이 있고, 100~200nm 얇은 CNT박막에서 50배정도 줄어드는 것을 확인 하였다.

The synthesis of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) by a chemical vapor deposition method using three different plant oils as precursors is presented. Because there are four parameters involved in the synthesis of CNM (i.e., the precursor, reaction temperature of the furnace, catalysts, and the carrier gas), each having three variables, it was decided to use the Taguchi optimization method with the 'the larger the better' concept. The best parameter regarding the yield of carbon varied for each type of precursor oil. It was a temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ + Ni as a catalyst for neem oil; $700^{\circ}C$ + Co for karanja oil and $500^{\circ}C$ + Zn as a catalyst for castor oil. The morphology of the nanocarbon produced was also impacted by different parameters. Neem oil and castor oil produced carbon nanotube (CNT) at $900^{\circ}C$; at lower temperatures, sphere-like structures developed. In contrast, karanja oil produced CNTs at all the assessed temperatures. X-ray diffraction and Raman diffraction analyses confirmed that the nanocarbon (both carbon nano beads and CNTs) produced were graphitic in nature.

탄소나노튜브 (carbon nanotube, CNT)는 우수한 전기적, 화학적, 기계적 성질과 큰 비표면적인 구조적인 특성에 기인하여 전자방출원 수직 소자에서의 interconnection, 에너지 저장 소자에서의 전극재료 및 고감도센서 등 다양한 분야로의 응용이 예상되고 있다 [1]. 본 연구에서는 이러한 응용을 위한 계면제어 측면제어 측면에서, 고전도성을 확보하기 위하여 금속 기판 위에 수직배향 탄소나노튜브(VCNT)를 직접 성장시키고자 하였다.

본 연구에서는 환경오염을 발생시키는 주요한 중금속 물질의 하나인 구리를 상대적으로 쉽게 검출하기 위해, CNT 전극 및 벗김전압전류법을 이용하여 구리 금속의 감도 향상을 위한 최적조건 및 민감도를 평가하였다. 또한 구리의 벗김반응이 발생될 때의 반응 메카니즘에 대한 연구도 수행하였다. 이를 위해, 네모파 벗김전압전류법 및 선형주사 전압 전류법등의 전기화학적 분석법이 이용되었다. 평가 결과, 네모파 벗김전압전류법의 최적조건으로, 15 mV의 네모파증폭율, 60 Hz의 주파수, -1.0V vs. Ag/AgCl의 석출전위 및 200초의 석출시간이 결정되었다. 구리 금속의 민감도를 측정한 결과 $1.824{\mu}A/{\mu}M$의 민감도를 얻을 수 있었다. 선형주사 전압전류법을 이용하여 구리의 벗김반응에 영향을 끼치는 인자를 평가하였을 때, 확산반응 보다는 표면반응이 구리의 벗김반응 성능에 영향을 끼치는 것으로 측정되었다. 이러한 전기화학적 분석 결과가 다른 참고문헌들과 비교되어졌고, 구리금속의 민감도 측면에서 본 연구에서 제안한 CNT 전극의 우수함이 입증되었다.

We show that carbon nanotube sensors with gold particles on the single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) network operate as Schottky barrier transistors, in which transistor action occurs primarily by varying the resistance of Au-SWNT junction rather than the channel conductance modulation. Transistor characteristics are calculated for the statistically simplified geometries, and the sensing mechanisms are analyzed by comparing the simulation results of the MOSFET model and Schottky junction model with the experimental data. We demonstrated that the semiconductor MOSFET effect cannot explain the experimental phenomena such as the very low limit of detection (LOD) and the logarithmic dependence of sensitivity to the DNA concentration. By building an asymmetric concentric-electrode model which consists of serially-connected segments of CNTFETs and Schottky diodes, we found that for a proper explanation of the experimental data, the work function shifts should be ~ 0.1 eV for 100 pM DNA concentration and ~ 0.4 eV for $100{\mu}M$.

Practical application of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) qualified as a promising material has been limited by either poor dispersion or their insolubility in aqueous or organic media due to formation of bundling by relatively high surface energy. Thus, major attention to overcome this issue has been paid at surface modification of CNTs by functionalization, but this introduces defects to the sidewall of CNTs, consequently perturbing the inherent electronic and optical properties. Therefore, using surfactants is a general approach to disperse SWCNTs with lower damages by which bundled nanotubes could be dispersed up to the level of individuals or small bundles. Here, we have investigated various surfactants for their efficiency in dissolving purified SWCNTs produced by arc discharge in deionized water. To compare the surfactants respectively, we have determined the least amount of each surfactant to suspend the nanotubes under optimized experimental conditions(CNT amount, sonication power, and centrifugation speed, etc.) set on the basis of the most common surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) and discussed the qualitative and quantitative characterization of SWCNT dispersions by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. Quantitative aspect about nanotube dispersion was that in particular N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (NaDDBS) were found to be effective in dispersing individual tubes.

Field emission-back light unit (FE-BLU) was fabricated using carbon nanotube (CNT) emitter. Local dimming and local brightening techniques were achieved, which results in very high contrast ratio. In addition, the motion blur phenomenon, one of the serious problems of liquid crystal display (LCD) with cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL)-BLU, was removed from LCD-TV by using FE-BLU.

The present paper is concerned with the study of nonlinear ultrasonic waves in a magneto thermo (MT) elastic armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (ASWCNT) resting on polymer matrix. The analytical formulation is developed based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory to account small scale effect. After developing the formal solution of the mathematical model consisting of partial differential equations, the frequency equations have been analyzed numerically by using the nonlinear foundations supported by Winkler-Pasternak model. The solution is obtained by ultrasonic wave dispersion relations. Parametric work is carried out to scrutinize the influence of the non local scaling, magneto-mechanical loadings, foundation parameters, various boundary condition and length on the dimensionless frequency of nanotube. It is noticed that the boundary conditions, nonlocal parameter, and tube geometrical parameters have significant effects on dimensionless frequency of nano tubes. The results presented in this study can provide mechanism for the study and design of the nano devices like component of nano oscillators, micro wave absorbing, nano-electron technology and nano-electro- magneto-mechanical systems (NEMMS) that make use of the wave propagation properties of armchair single-walled carbon nanotubes embedded on polymer matrix.

This article investigates the free vibration behavior of carbon nanotube reinforced composite (CNTRC) beams embedded using variational analytical methods and artificial neural networks (ANN). The material properties of layered functionally graded CNTRC (FG-CNTRC) beams are estimated using nonlocal parameters modified power-law with different types of CNT distributions through the thickness direction of the beam. Adopting Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory to capture the small size effects, the nonlocal governing equations are derived and solved using the analytical method. And also, the problem was analyzed using the ANN method. The architecture of the proposed ANN model is 3-9-1. In the experiments, we used 112 different data to predict the natural frequency using ANN. Based on the nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen, the equations of motion as well as the boundary conditions of the beam are derived using Hamilton's principle. The classical beam theory is used to formulate a governing equation for predicting the free vibration of laminated CNTRC beams. According to the experimental results, the prediction ability of the ANN model is very good and the natural frequency can be predicted in ANN without attempting any experiments.
