Nanotechnology mostly employs nano-materials and nano-structures with distinctive properties based on their size, structure, and composition. It is quite difficult to produce nano-materials and nano-structures with identical sizes, structures, and compositions in large quantities, because of spatiotemporal fluctuation of production processes. In other words, fluctuation is the bottleneck in nanotechnology. We propose three strategies to suppress such fluctuations: employing 1) difference between linear and nonlinear phenomena, 2) difference in time constants, and 3) nucleation as a bottleneck phenomenon. We are also developing nano- and micro-scale guided assembly using plasmas as a plasma nanofabrication.1-5) We manipulate nano- and micro-objects using electrostatic, electromagnetic, ion drag, neutral drag, and optical forces. The accuracy of positioning the objects depends on fluctuation of position and energy of an object in plasmas. Here we evaluate such fluctuations and discuss the mechanism behind them. We conducted in-situ evaluation of local plasma potential fluctuation using tracking analysis of fine particles (=objects) in plasmas. Experiments were carried out with a radio frequency low-pressure plasma reactor, where we set two quartz windows at the top and bottom of the reactor. Ar plasmas were generated at 200 Pa by applying 13.56MHz, 450V peak-to-peak voltage. The injected fine particles were monodisperse methyl methacrylate-polymer spheres of $10{\mu}m$ in diameter. Fine particles were injected into the reactor and were suspended around the plasma/sheath boundary near the powered electrode. We observed binary collision of fine particles with a high-speed camera. The frame rate was 1000-10000 fps. Time evolution of their distance from the center of mass was measured by tracking analysis of the two particles. Kinetic energy during the collision was obtained from the result. Potential energy formed between the two particles was deduced by assuming the potential energy plus the kinetic energy is constant. The interaction potential is fluctuated during the collision. Maximum amplitude of the fluctuation is 25eV, and the average is 8eV. The fluctuation can be caused by neutral molecule collisions, ion collisions, and fluctuation of electrostatic force. Among theses possible causes, fluctuation of electrostatic force may be main one, because the fine particle has a large negative charge of -17000e and the corresponding electrostatic force is large compared to other forces.

심매설 접지봉의 경우 장마철에 빗물이나 지하수와 접촉하는 경우가 발생한다. 수중에 잠겨있는 접지극에 서지 전압이 인가되면 접지극 주변에서 이온화 현상이 발생하게 된다. 지중이나 수중에서의 이온화 현상은 접지 시스템의 에너지적인 특성에 의해 영향을 받는다. 이 논문의 목적은 축소된 전해 수조를 이용하여 임펄스 전압에 의한 접지시스템의 과도특성을 파악하는데 있다. 매틀랩 프로그램을 활용하여 이온화에 의한 전위저감과 방출된 에너지를 측정하여 정량적인 분석을 수행하였다. 접지극 끝단의 최대 전압은 물의 저항률과 Marx형 전압발생장치의 충전전압에 따라 다양하게 나타났다. 접지극 끝단의 전위는 절연파괴전압에 이르기 전 인가전압에서 대략 절반까지 감소하였다. 또한 절연파괴가 발생하기 전 인가된 에너지의 절반 이상의 에너지가 이온화에 의해 접지극을 통하여 방출되었다.

탄소 원자 간의 interaction potential로서 Tersoff에 의해 제안된 반 경험적인 potential을 이용하여 고경질 탄소박막의 합성 거동을 전산 모사하였다. 고에너지의 탄소익사를 diamond (100) 표면에 충돌시켜 고밀도의 비정질 탄소박막을 만들 수 있었으며, 전산모사에 의해 합성된 탄소 박막의 물성과 Shin 등이 발표한 filtered cathodic arc 공정에 의해 합성된 탄소의 물성을 비교하였다. ta-C 합성 실험에서 관찰된 바와 같이 최적의 에너지 영역에서 다이아몬드에 가장 유사한 물성의 필름이 합성되었으며, 이때의 입사원자 에너지인 50 eV 는 실험적으로 최적의 필름이 얻어지는 조건에서의 탄소이온 에너지와 유사하였다. 전산모사에 의해 합성된 박막은 비정질이었으며, 다이아몬드 lattice에 해당하는 short range order를 가지긴 있었다. 그러나, 최적의 에너지 조건에서는 2.1 $\AA$의 거리의 준안정 site에 탄소들이 많이 존재하는 것을 알 수 있었는데, 이는 필름 표면의 국부적 급냉효과가 최대가 되는 조건과 일치하였다. 이러한 결과는 다이아몬드상 카본필름의 합성에 있어서, 고 에너지의 탄소인자가 충돌하면서 발생하는 국소적인 열에너지의 증가가 가장 빨리 제거되는 조건에서 최적의 물성을 가지는 경질탄소 필름이 형성되는 것을 보여주고 있다.

The electrokinetic potential of $CaCO_3$, which takes an important part in aquatic system, has been measured and the variation of total energy between $CaCO_3$ particles with the distance of particles was estimated based on DLVO theory. The electrokinetic potential of particles was observed to increase to positive direction as the charge valence of cations which was added to suspension was increased. Also, the total interaction energy between particles was estimated to be more negative as the charge valence of cation was higher and its concentrations was raised. When a mixture of cations with different charge valences was added, the influence of cation with a higher charge valence was more significant on the total interaction energy between particles. When anion was added to the suspension of $CaCO_3$, the total energy estimated by DLVO theory was examined to move to positive direction and the electrokinetic potential of particles became more negative. Likewise cations, the effect of anions on the electrokinetic potential of particles and total interaction energy between them was observed to be proportional to their charge valence and the influence of the mixture of anions with different charge valence became more remarkable as the mixing ratio of the anion with a higher charge valence was increased.

The performance of Li-B alloy as anode for molten salt electrolysis was firstly investigated. The crystalline phase of the prepared Li-B alloy was identified as $Li_7B_6$. The potential profile of Li-B alloy anode was monitored during the electrodeposition of $Nd^{3+}$ onto an LCC (liquid cadmium cathode) in molten LiCl-KCl salt at $500^{\circ}C$. The potential of Li-B alloy was increased from -2.0 V to -1.4 V vs. Ag/AgCl by increasing the applied current from 10 to $50mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$. It was found that not only the anodic dissolution of Li to $Li^+$ but also the dissolution of the atomic lithium ($Li^0$) into the LiCl-KCl eutectic salt was observed, following the concomitant reduction of $Nd^{3+}$ by the $Li^0$ in Li-B alloy. It was expected that the direct reduction could be restrained by maintaining the anode potential higher that the deposition potential of neodymium.

Wind energy can be utilized for the generation of electricity, due to significant wind potential at different parts of the world, some countries have already been generating of electricity through wind. Pakistan is still well behind and has not yet made any appreciable effort for the same. The objective of this work was to add some new strategies to calculate Weibull parameters and assess wind energy potential. A new approach calculates Weibull parameters; we also developed an alternate formula to calculate shape parameters instead of the gamma function. We obtained k (shape parameter) and c (scale parameter) for two-parameter Weibull distribution using five statistical methods for five different cities in Pakistan. Maximum likelihood method, Modified Maximum likelihood Method, Method of Moment, Energy Pattern Method, Empirical Method, and have been to calculate and differentiate the values of (shape parameter) k and (scale parameter) c. The performance of these five methods is estimated using the Goodness-of-Fit Test, including root mean square error, mean absolute bias error, mean absolute percentage error, and chi-square error. The daily 10-minute average values of wind speed data (obtained from energydata.info) of different cities of Pakistan for the year 2016 are used to estimate the Weibull parameters. The study finds that Hyderabad city has the largest wind potential than Karachi, Quetta, Lahore, and Peshawar. Hyderabad and Karachi are two possible sites where wind turbines can produce reasonable electricity.

일반적으로 전기 동역학적 전위는 세기성질로 알려져 있으며 이를 바탕으로 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 대표적 무기성 물질인 몬모릴로나이트를 대상으로 하여 분산체를 제조해 전위를 측정하였다. 전기 동역학적 전위를 측정한 결과, 몬모릴로나이트의 질량이 증가할수록 전위값이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이는 몬모릴로나이트의 질량이 증가하면서 단위질량당 흡착하는 이온의 양이 적어지기 때문이라고 사료된다. 이러한 결과는 전위가 세기성질이 아닌 크기성질을 따른다고 생각할 수 있다. 또한 측정한 전기 동역학적 전위값을 통해 입자간 상호 에너지를 측정한 결과 몬모릴로나이트의 질량이 증가할수록 상호 입자간 에너지가 점차적으로 감소하는 경향이 관찰되었다.

The object of this work is to establish an electrochemical noise(EN) measurement technique combined with a direct current potential drop(DCPD) method for monitoring of localized corrosion cracking of nickel-based alloy, and to analyze its mechanism. The electrochemical current and potential noises were measured under various conditions of applied stress to a compact tension specimen in a simulated primary water chemistry of a pressurized water reactor. The amplitude and frequency of the EN signals were evaluated in both time and frequency domains based on a shot noise theory, and then quantitatively analyzed using statistical Weibull distribution function. From the spectral analysis, the effect of the current application in DCPD was found to be effectively excluded from the EN signals generated from the localized corrosion cracking. With the aid of a microstructural analysis, the relationship between EN signals and the localized corrosion cracking mechanism was investigated by comparing the shape parameter of Weibull distribution of a mean time-to-failure.

Potential Energy Surface(PES)를 양자 계산을 통해 알아내는 것은 화학 반응을 이해하는 데에 큰 도움이 된다. 이를테면 Transition State(TS)의 configuration을 알 수 있고, 따라서 reaction path와 활성화 에너지 값을 예측하여, 진행시키고자 하는 화학반응의 이해를 도울 수 있다. 하지만 PES를 그리기 위해서는 해당 분자의 다양한 configuration에 대한 singlet point energy 계산이 필요하기 때문에, 계산적인 측면에서 많은 비용을 요구한다. 따라서 product와 reactant의 구조와 같은 critical point의 정보를 이용하여 최소한의 configuration을 sampling하여 전체 PES를 재구성하는 기계학습 알고리즘을 개발하여 다차원 PES 상에서의 화학반응의 예측을 가능하게 하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 Barbaralane의 두 안정화 된 구조의 critical point로 하여 이 주변을 random normal distribution하여, B3LYP/6-31G(d) level의 DFT 계산을 통해 relaxed scanning하여 구조와 에너지를 구하였으며, 이 정보를 Support Vector Regression(SVR) 알고리즘을 적용하여 PES를 재구현하였으며, 반응경로와 TS의 구조 그리고 활성화 에너지를 구하였다. 또한 본 기계학습 알고리즘을 바닥상태에서 일어나는 반응이 아닌, 들뜬 상태와 전자 구조가 변하는 화학반응, avoid crossing, conical intersection과 같은 Non-adiabatic frame에서 일어나는 현상에 적용 가능성을 논하고자 한다.
