Here we describe the formation of a self-assembled film of thin multiwalled carbon Nanotubes(t-MWNT) modified with hydroxy groups through hydrogen peroxide treatment. Morphologies of t-MWNT films could be controlled by the various coating method, such as filtering, drop casting, spraying method, etc. The results show that on densification of the CNT suspension during drying, multiple hydroxy group-modified MWNTs can be self-assembled through strong surface hydrogen bond interaction while MWNTs usually exist an entangled state in the film. The interaction between t-MWNT was illustrated from Raman spectrum of spray coated films.

본 연구에서는, 유기용매를 사용하지 않는 친 환경적인 건식 공정과 초임계 공정을 이용한 Thin-multiwalled carbon nanotube (TWNTs)/아민계 에폭시 첨가제의 복합체 제조에 관하여 연구를 하였다. 제조된 TWNTs/아민계 에폭시 첨가제의 복합체는 우레탄기반의 비스페놀 A 타입의 에폭시 레진의 경화제로 사용하였다. TWNTs/아민계 에폭시 첨가제의 복합체를 경화제로 사용하여 제조된 에폭시 레진의 열적 성질을 Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA)를 이용하여 분석 하였으며, 메트릭스상의 carbon nanotube의 높은 분산성은 SEM을 통하여 확인 하였다. 그 결과, 초임계 공정을 이용하여 제조된 에폭시 레진의 열적 성질과 매트릭스내의 carbon nanotube 분산성이 건식 공정을 사용 하였을 때 보다 더욱 증가된 결과를 확인 할 수 있었다.

A nanofiber was fabricated with carbon nanotubes for transparent electrodes. It was prepared with a composite solution of bio-molecules polycaprolactone (PCL) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by electrospinning on a glass substrate, following which its electrical characteristics were investigated. The content of MWCNTs was varied during electrospinning, while that of PCL was fixed. Further, a nanometer-thick thin film of silver was deposited on the nanofiber layer using a thermal evaporator to improve the electrical characteristics; the sheet resistance significantly reduced after this deposition. The results showed that this carbon nanotube nanofiber has potential applications in biotechnology and as a flexible transparent display material.

We report a fabrication of carbon nanotube (CNT) monolayer thin film using liquid-liquid interface. The multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), which were synthesized by the alumina template method formed a monolayer at the liquid-liquid interface after sonicating the MWCNT water-oil dispersion. Moreover, with the addition of ethanol, the MWCNT monlayer was also formed at the liquid-liquid interface. The monolayer is transferable onto solid substrates and the transferred film was observed using atomic force microscopy (AFM)

Composites of platinum and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared in various reduction conditions and characterized using cyclic voltammetry. The MWNTs were functionalized with carboxylic acid and/or hydroxyl groups in acidic solutions prior to the formation of MWNT-Pt composites. Platinum nanoparticles were deposited onto the chemically-oxidized MWNTs in 1-propanol and 1,3-propanediol. The reduction of Pt precursors in other solutions could induce differences in their morphologies in composite thin films. The morphologies of MWNTs with Pt deposited were dependent on the reduction solutions, and the electrocatalytic activities on alcohols changed accordingly. The electrochemical activities of the as-prepared MWNT-Pt thin films on common alcohols such as methanol and ethanol were investigated.

This article describes recent work on mechanics of carbon nanotubes, one of the most fundamental and amazing man-made nanostructures. The noteworthy point is that "nano"-scale mechanics of carbon nanotubes can be well described by the continuum elastic theories for "macro"-scale thin shells. This provides an efficient means to elucidate mechanical deformation effects of carbon nanotubes on their physical and chemical properties, which is significant to develop new-generation nanomaterials based on nanotubes and their composites. Potential applications of the mechanical deformation of nanotubes in nano-electronics and nano-biology are also commented. In addition, theoretical investigations regarding external pressure buckling is carried out here and we have numerically confirmed that larger N (the number of layers) and a smaller D (the innermost diameter) make "corrugation modes" with a larger mode-index k be energetically favored.

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs) was successfully grown on Ni coated silicon wafer substrate by applying PECVD technique(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition). As a catalyst, Ni thin film of thickness ranging from 15∼30nm was prepared by electron beam evaporator method. In order to find the optimum growth condition, the type of the gas mixture such as C$_2$H$_2$-NH$_3$was systematically investigated by adjusting the gas mixing ratio in temperature of 600$^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 0.4 torr. The diameter of the grown CNTs was 40∼150nm. As NH$_3$etching time increased the diameters of the nanotubes decreased whereas the density of nanotubes increased. TEM images clearly demonstrated synthesized nanotubes was multiwalled. We investigated electrical properties for the application of FED.

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs) was successfully grown on Ni coated silicon wafer substrate by PECVD technique(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition). As a catalyst, Ni thin film of thickness ranging from 15∼30nm was prepared by electron beam evaporator system. In order to find the find the optimum growth condition, initially two different types of gas mixtures such as C$_2$H$_2$-NH$_3$ and C$_2$H$_2$-NH$_3$-Ar were systematically investigated by adjusting the gas mixing ratio in temperature of 600$^{\circ}C$ under 0.4 torr. The diameter of the grown CNTs was 40∼200nm. The diameter of the CNTs increases with increasing the Ni particles size. TEM images clearly demonstrated synthesized nanotubes to be multiwalled.

The composites composed of conducting polymer (MEH-PPV), CdTe nanoparticles, and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were spectroscopically and electrically characterized in their thin films. The composite films were prepared by spray coating. These composites were prepared from the mixture solution of MEH-PPV and CdTe-embedded MWNTs, in which CdTe nanoparticles were electrostatically bound to MWNTs. UV/vis and PL spectra were analyzed to investigate the optical absorbance and emission of the composite films. In addition, their structural, electrochemical, and electrical properties were studied by transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and I-V measurement.
