Improving the microstructure of NiO/YSZ is one of several approaches used to enhance the electrical and mechanical properties of an anode support in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs). The aim of the work reported in this paper was to predict the relationship between these microstructural changes and the resulting properties. To this end, modification of the anode microstructure was carried out using different sizes of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (PMMA) beads as a pore former. The electrical conductivity and mechanical strength of these samples were measured using four-probe DC, and three-point bend-test methods, respectively. Thermal etching followed by high resolution SEM imaging was performed for sintered samples to distinguish between the three phases (NiO, YSZ, and pores). Recently developed image analysis techniques were modified and used to calculate the porosity and the contiguity of different phases of the anode support. Image analysis results were verified by comparison with the porosity values determined from mercury porosimetry measurements. Contiguity of the three phases was then compared with data from electrical and mechanical measurements. A linear relationship was obtained between the contiguity data determined from image analysis, and the electrical and mechanical properties found experimentally. Based upon these relationships we can predict the electrical and mechanical properties of SOFC support from the SEM images.

The most recent developments in two areas: (a) synthesis of inorganic particles with control over size and shape by polymer additives, and (b) synthesis of inorganic-polymer hybrid materials by bulk polymerization of blends of monomers with nanosized crystals are reviewed. The precipitations of inorganics, such as zinc oxide or calcium carbonate, in presence and under the control of bishydrophilic block or comb copolymers, are relevant to the field of Biomineralization. The application of surface modified latex particles, used as controlling agents, and the formation of hybrid crystals in which the latex is embedded in otherwise perfect crystals, are discussed. The formation of nano sized spheres of amorphous calcium carbonate, stabilized by surfactant-like polymers, is also discussed. Another method for the preparation of nanosized inorganic functional particles is the controlled pyrolysis of metal salt complexes of poly(acrylic acid), as demonstrated by the syntheses of lithium cobalt oxide and zinc/magnesium oxide. Bulk polymerization of methyl methacrylate blends, with for example, nanosized zinc oxide, revealed that the mechanisms of tree radical polymerization respond to the presence of these particles. The termination by radical-radical interaction and the gel effect are suppressed in favor of degenerative transfer, resulting in a polymer with enhanced thermal stability. The optical properties of the resulting polymer-particle blends are addressed based on the basic discussion of the miscibility of polymers and nanosized particles.

Recently, graphene has been intensively studied due to the fascinating physical, chemical and electrical properties. It shows high carrier mobility, high current density, and high thermal conductivity compare with conventional semiconductor materials even it has single atomic thickness. Especially, since graphene has fantastic electrical properties many researchers are believed that graphene will be replacing Si based technology. In order to realize it, we need to prepare the large and uniform graphene. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method is the most promising technique for synthesizing large and uniform graphene. Unfortunately, CVD method requires transfer process from metal catalyst. In transfer process, supporting polymer film (Such as poly (methyl methacrylate)) is widely used for protecting graphene. After transfer process, polymer layer is removed by organic solvents. However, it is impossible to remove it completely. These organic residues on graphene surface induce quality degradation of graphene since it disturbs movement of electrons. Thus, in order to get an intrinsic property of graphene completely remove of the organic residues is the most important. Here, we introduce modified wet graphene transfer method without PMMA. First of all, we grow the graphene from Cu foil using CVD method. And then, we deposited several metal films on graphene for transfer layer instead of PMMA. Finally, we fabricate graphene FET devices. Our approaches show low defect density and non-organic residues in comparison with PMMA coated graphene through Raman spectroscopy, SEM and AFM. In addition, clean graphene FET shows intrinsic electrical characteristic and high carrier mobility.

Porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites were fabricated by pressureless sintering, using different volume percentages (40% - 60%) of poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) powders as a pore-forming agent. The pore-forming agent was successfully removed, and the pore size and shape were well-controlled during the burn-out and sintering processes. The average pore size in the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ bodies was about $200\;{\mu}m$ in diameter. The values of relative density, bending strength, hardness, and elastic modulus decreased as the PMMA content increased; i.e., in the porous body (sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$) using 55 vol % PMMA, their values were about 50.8%, 29.8 MPa, 266.4 Hv, and 6.4 GPa, respectively. To make the $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$/polymer hybrid composites, a bioactive polymer, such as PMMA, was infiltrated into the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites. After infiltration, most of the pores in the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites, which were made using 60 vol % PMMA additions, were infiltrated with PMMA, and their values of relative density, bending strength, hardness, and elastic modulus remarkably increased.

실내조명하에서 유비쿼터스 센서 네트워크 태그 및 노드 전원으로 태양전지 사용 가능성을 실험하기 위해 PMMA(Poly-Methyl-Methacrylate) 렌즈를 단일접합 AlGaAs/GaAs 태양전지 위에 덧씌워서 렌즈로 사용한 결과 태양 전지의 특성이 향상 되었다. PMMA 렌즈를 덧씌운 효과를 비교하기 위해 AlGaAs 단일접합 태양전지에 PMMA 렌즈를 덧씌우기 전과 후의 특성을 각각 one sun 조건 ($100mW/cm^2$) 하에서 측정하였으며, 실내의 탁상램프 조명 근접거리 조건(약 1200 룩스)하에서 특성 측정 결과를 비교하였다. PMMA 렌즈를 덧씌운 결과 약 5% 정도의 효율이 향상되었고, 탁상용 형광램프 조건에서 $83\;{\mu}m/cm^2$ 이상의 전기에너지가 발생됨을 확인하였다. 실내조명 조건에서는 one sun ($100mW/cm^2$) 에 비해서 광량이 매우 작으므로 발생전압과 발생 전류가 상당히 감소하게 된다. 하지만 $83\;{\mu}m/cm^2$ 정도의 전기에너지가 발생되어 향 후 렌즈효율 개선과 모듈 설계를 통해 USN 태그 및 노드용 전원으로 충분히 적용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

금속산화물 고분자 복합재료전극 제조기법을 수소이온 감응성이 높은 $RuO_2$에 적용하여 표면연마가 가능한 나노 $RuO_2$ 복합재료 pH전극을 제조하였다. $RuO_2$ 함량 53 wt%을 가지는 나노 $RuO_2$ 복합재료 전극의 경우 나노 $IrO_2$ 복합재료 전극과 비슷한 수소이온 감응특성을 나타내었다. pH 1~9의 범위에서 이론치에 가까운 -58.7 mV/pH의 감응기울기, 1초 이하의 감응속도, 평균 $-57.0{\pm}0.3mV/pH$ (n=5)의 표면재생성, 장기 안정성 등 제반 특성과 전기화학적으로 활성이 높은 화학종에 의한 방해효과도 비슷하게 나타났다. 그러나 pH 10 이상의 염기성 용액에서의 감응기울기와 감응속도는 나노 $IrO_2$ 복합재료전극에 비하여 현저히 떨어지는 결과를 보였으며 이는 복합재료 매질 속의 금속산화물 함량에 따른 물리적 성질 차이에 따른 것으로 추측된다.

전분에 폴리(메틸 메타크릴레이트)(PMMA)를 그래프트시켜 starch-g-PMMA로 전분을 개질시켰다. 아크릴로니트릴 부타디엔 고무(NBR) 라텍스와 PMMA 그래프트 전분을 라텍스 블렌드 방법으로 혼합하여 개질된 전분/카본블랙/NBR 복합체를 제조하였다. 전분의 조성에 따라 모폴로지, 열적특성, 기계적 물성을 조사하였다. 전분/카본블랙/NBR 복합체는 전분의 함량이 증가함에 따라 물성이 향상되지만 40 phr 이상으로 전분이 들어가면 전분의 응집현상이 발생하여 분산성이 떨어지고 물성이 저하되는 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 25 phr의 전분과 25 phr의 카본블랙이 들어간 경우 우수한 분산성과 높은 가교 밀도에 기인하여 고무에 대한 보강성이 증가하였다. 또한 인장강도, 저장 탄성률, 경도, 팽윤도 등의 물성에서 가장 우수한 결과를 나타내었다.

Synthetic polymers such as polyimide, polycarbonate, and poly(methyl methacrylate) are long chain molecules which consist of carbon, hydrogen, and heteroatom linked together chemically. Recently, polymer surface can be modified by using a high energy ion beam process. High energy ions are introduced into polymer structure with high velocity and provide a high degree of chemical bonding between molecular chains. In high energy beam process the modified polymers have the highly crosslinked three-dimensionally connected rigid network structure and they showed significant improvements in electrical conductivity, in hardness and in resistance to wear and chemicals. Polyimide films (Kapton, types HN) with thickness of 50~100${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were used for investigations. They were treated with two different surface modification techniques: Plasma Source Ion Implantation (PSII) and conventional Ion Implantation. Polyimide films were implanted with different ion species such as Ar+, N+, C+, He+, and O+ with dose from 1 x 1015 to 1 x 1017 ions/cm2. Ion energy was varied from 10keV to 60keV for PSII experiment. Polyimide samples were also implanted with 1 MeV hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen ions with a dose of 1x1015ions/cm2. This work provides the possibility for inducing conductivity in polyimide films by ion beam bombardment in the keloelectronvolt to megaelectronvolt energy range. The electrical properties of implanted polyimide were determined by four-point probe measurement. Depending on ion energy, doses, and ion type, the surface resistivity of the film is reduced by several orders of magnitude. Ion bombarded layers were characterized by Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), XPS, and SEM.
