In this paper, we fabricated a biosensor for detecting hydrogen peroxide and investigated the sensing property. We prepared a viologen and hemoglobin modified gold electrode using self-assembly and layer by layer method. The electrochemical property of the viologen derivative was characterized in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ electrolyte solution by cyclic voltammetry. The modified electrode showed reversible electrochemical properties and high stability. From the results, the viologen can act as a charge transfer mediator for access to the electrode surface. The catalytic characteristics of the designed sensor proved that hemoglobin has been kept in its natural structure and can retain its biological activity. The designed biosensor showed a fast amperometric response, excellent linearity and low detection limit. In addition, it had high sensitivity, good reproducibility and stability.

Ordered mesoporous oxide films have been focused because of their low density, high interior specific surface area, and high thermal insulation. Specially, the ordered mesoporous oxide films prepared by self-assembly has many advantages due to easy process and high reproducibility. In this work, ordered mesoporous $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, and $TiO_2$ films were synthesized by control of composition and processing parameter. Also, their structural, thermal, and mechanical properties were characterized variously. In conclusion, ordered mesoporous oxides will be one of core materials in new technology due to their excellent and unique properties.

나노 크기를 가지는 DNA 분자를 template로 사용하여 전도성 고분자의 일종인 polypyrrole nanowire를 합성하였다. 본 논문에서 합성된 polypyrrole nanowire는 단량체인 pyrrole과 산화제와의 화학적인 반응에 의해 만들어졌다. 먼저 DNA 분자를 APTES(3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) modified Si surface 위에 정렬한다. 그리고 이 기판을 농도를 달리한 pyrrole solution에서 incubationn한다. 마지막으로 APS (ammonium persulfate)와 반응시켜 conductive nanowire를 합성하였다. SEM을 이용하여 silicon 기판위에 1차원적으로 정렬된 나노 크기를 가지는 polypyrrole nanowire를 관찰할수 있었다. 그리고 pyrrole의 농도에 따라 nanowire의 uniformity를 조절할 수 있었다.

We have developed a simple synthetic method for fabricating a wafer-scale colloidal crystal film of 2D crystals in a 1D stack based on a combination of two simple processes : the self-assembly of polystyrene (PS) nanospheres at the water-air interface and the layer-by-layer (LbL) scooping transfer technique. The main advantage of this approach is that it allows excellent control of the thickness (at a layer level) of the crystals and the formation of a vertical crack-free layer over a wafer-scale (4 inch). We investigate the optical and morphological properties of the PhC multilayers fabricated using various mono-sized colloidal crystals (250, 300, 350, 420, 580, 720, and 850 nm), and mixed binary colloidal crystals (300/350 and 250/350 nm).

Recent work in our laboratory has focused on the molecular and supramolecular engineering of conjugated polymers and oligomers for device applications, including light emitting diodes for displays and lighting, photovoltaic cells, and thin film transistors. A central finding is that the supramolecular structure of conjugated polymers can have a dominant influence on their properties and the performance of devices. Some major results include: highly efficient RGB light-emitting diodes from polymers and oligomers; high mobility n-channel polymer field effect transistors; ambipolar thin film transistors from copolymer semiconductors; and self-assembly and ambipolar charge transport in polymer nanowires.

We demonstrate two very simple and fast routes to fabricating ordered micro/nanopatterns of polymers over large areas on various substrates using controlled dewetting. The first method is based on utilizing microimprinting to induce the local thickness variation of an initially inverted bilayer which allows the controlled dewetting and partial layer inversion upon subsequent thermal annealing. In the second method, the self assembly of block copolymer was controlled on a chemically micropatterned surface produced by microcontact printing, being combined with its solvent vapor treatment. The kinetically driven, non-lithographical nanopattern structures were easily fabricated over large area by these approaches.

The self-assembly of supramolecular dendrimers allows the rapid construction of nanosized structures with regularly ordered features that depend on the shape of the molecules and the relative strength of the intra-and intermolecular interactions. Here we report on a dramatic improvement in the degree of control and selectivity in the orientation of fan-shaped supramolecular molecules over a large area, which has been achieved by confined geometries and applied fields. The order and orientation of supramolecular dendrimers can be controlled by surface anchoring in confined geometries. POM, SEM, TEM, AFM and XRD results show that the molecules form the complicated defect-ordering in the microchannels with different feature sizes. We show that these defect domains are strongly influenced by the boundary and feature size of the surfaces. This technique can be used to create a grain size in the plane of the film that is much larger than that which can be achieved using previously reported soft-material based pattering.

Photo-/electroactive donor-acceptor (D-A) chromophores were synthesized and investigated for energy- and electron-transfer (ET/eT) properties, for which the chromophores are supramolecularly integrated by encapsulation with helical amylose, rendering the chromophores aggregation-free and rigidified along the helical axis and thus, a remarkably enhanced fluorescence intensity. Fluorescence quenching studies indicated that the helical encapsulation gives the ET/eT a clear D-A distance dependence unlike with the encapsulation-free counterparts, being reflected in their florescence decay profile. Another notable difference is that the helical supramolecule of the chromophores forms a perpendicularly oriented self-assembly. Transport behavior in the solid state will be also discussed.

Highly temperature stable mesoporous materials have excellent properties and potential applications. Here we show a novel poly(vinyl)silazane-block-polystyrene diblock copolymer, which was synthesized by controlled/living free radical polymerization with reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) route. The obtained diblock copolymer occurs the phaseseparation on the nanoscale to form ordered nanostructure, which is converted to mesoprorous ceramic after heating at 800oC. This route demonstrates the preparation of highly temperature stable mesoporous silicon carbon nitrides (SiCN) ceramic film directed from highly cross-linking poly(vinyl)silazane blocks with high ceramic yield, which is different from previous pathway.
