원자간력-현미경(Atomic Force Microscope)은 비파괴적인 방법으로 광소자의 단면 형상과 거칠기에 관한 정보를 원자단위의 해상도로 얻어낼 수 있다. 그러나 탐침의 형상에 의해서 공간분해능에 제한을 받는다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해, 원자간력-현미경 탐침의 끝부분에 나노튜브를 부착하였다. 주사형 전자현미경에 설치한 나노조작기를 사용하여 나노튜브를 탐침에 밀착하도록 이동시킨 후에, 탄화물 증착으로 접착시키는 방법을 사용하였다.

The bending test of an individual ZnO nanorod was performed with a nano-manipulator and a force sensor inside the scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the bending properties of ZnO nanorod were also discussed. The ZnO nanorod used in this experiment was fabricated by means of solution base process. The force sensor used for bending test of ZnO nanorod was typed with cantilever. The force sensor was mounted on the nano-manipulator. The nano-manipulator was controlled and manipulated by a personal computer. The each end of an individual ZnO nanorod was attached on the rigid support and the tip of the force sensor with an electron beam exposure, and then the bending test was carried out by controlling of the nano-manipulator. The bending modulus of a ZnO nanorod was calculated at 69.35GPa after the bending test.

It is important to measure the mechanical properties of nanostructures because they are required to determine the lifetime and reliability of nanodevices developed for various fields. In this study, tensile tests for a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and a ZnO nanorod were performed in a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The force sensor was a cantilever type and was mounted in front of a nanomanipulator placed in the chamber. The nanomanipulator was controlled using a joystick and personal computer. The nanostructures dispersed on the cut area of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) grid were gripped with the force sensor by exposing an electron beam in the SEM; the tensile tests were the performed. The in situ tensile loads of the nanostructure were obtained. After the tensile test, the cross-sectional areas of the nanostructures were observed by TEM and SEM. Based on the TEM and SEM results, the elastic modulus of the MWCNT and ZnO nanorod were calculated to be 0.98 TPa and 55.85 GPa, respectively.

표면처리는 전기적, 물리적, 화학적 처리방법 등을 통해 보호표면을 생성시킴으로서 재료의 외관미화, 내마모성, 전기절연, 전기전도성 부여 등의 폭넓은 목적을 달성시키고자 하는 일련의 조작을 말한다. 최근 스마트 휴대폰으로 대표되는 이동통신기기 산업의 빠른 성장으로 인하여 이들 기기를 보호하기 위한 표면 처리기술도 함께 발전하고 있다. 그중 대표적인 것이 나노기술을 융합한 보호막 도장기술이다. 나노입자를 분산하거나 나노상(phase)을 융합하여 제품의 표면에 보호막을 도장하는 기술이며, 그 주된 목적은 내 스크래치, 내 부식 등의 물리 화학적 보호기능을 수행하도록 층(layer)을 형성하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 제조된 실리카 나노입자와 유기물을 사용하여 휴대폰 케이스에 도장막을 형성하였고, Scratch, Wear, hardness Test등의 분석을 통하여 유무기 하이브리드 도장막의 특성을 평가하였다.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted an increasing attention due to their superior mechanical properties and potential application in industries. The strength of CNT has been predicted or calculated through several simulation techniques but actual experiments on stress-strain behavior are rare due to its dimensional limit, nanoscale positioning/manipulation, and instrumental resolution. We have attempted to observe straining responses of a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) by performing an in-situ tensile testing in a scanning electron microscope. The carbon nanotube, having its both ends attached on a cantilever force sensor and Y-shaped support, was elongated by a computer-controlled nanomanipulator. Linear deformation and fracture behaviors of MWNT were successfully observed and its force-displacement curve was also measured from the bending stiffness and displacement of the force sensor and manipulator.

Nano manipulator is used to manufacture Carbon NanoTube(CNT) tips. Using nano manipulator operator attaches a CNT at the end of Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM) tip, which requires a master mechanic and long manufacture time. Nano manipulator is installed inside Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) chamber to observe the operation. This paper presents a control of horizontal axis of nano manipulator via processing SEM image. Edges of AFM tip and CNT are first detected, the position information so obtained is fed to control horizontal axis of nano manipulator. To be specific, visual servoing loop was realized to control the axis more precisely.
