Experiments were conducted to evaluate pool boiling heat transfer performance between plain and micro finned surfaces with FC-72, which is chemically and electrically stable. Three kinds of micro fins with the dimension of $100{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$, $150{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$ and $200{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$ (width $\times$ height) were fabricated on the surface of a silicon chip. The experiments were carried out on the liquid subcooling of 5, 10 and 15 K under the atmospheric condition. The micro finned surface with a larger fin width of $200{\mu}m$ provided a better pool boiling heat transfer performance. Also, the micro finned surfaces showed a sharp increase in heat flux with increasing wall superheat and a larger heat transfer enhancement compared to a plain surface.

Numerical simulation is performed for nucleate boiling on a micro-finned surface, which has been widely used to enhance heat transfer, by solving the equations governing the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy in the liquid and vapor phases. The bubble motion is determined by a sharp-interface level-set method, which is modified to include the effect of phase change and to treat the no-slip and contact-angle conditions, as well as the evaporative heat flux from the liquid microlayer on immersed solid surfaces such as micro fins and cavities. The numerical results for bubble formation, growth, and departure on a microstructured surface including fins and cavities show that the bubble behavior during nucleate boiling is significantly influenced by the fin-cavity arrangement and the fin-fin spacing.

본 발표에서는 공중에 떠있는 그래핀 기반 나노전기역학 시스템 (NEMS)의 기본 물성과 응용 방법에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 단겹 그래핀을 리본형태로 패턴하고 마이크로 전사기술을 통해 공중에 띄우는 공정을 이용한 그래핀 NEMS 소자 제작 방법을 먼저 소개하고 우리 연구그룹에서 지금까지 측정한 이 구조의 기본 역학적 물성 연구 결과를 소개한다. 미세 질량이 공중에 매달린 그래핀에 더해짐에 따라 역학적 공명 주파수가 줄어드는 현상을 이용하여 그래핀 기반 초미세 질량 센서 응용 방법에 대해 먼저 말하고 이후 같은 구조로 역학적 공명주파수를 이용한 RF 소자 응용 가능성에 대해서 이야기 하고자 한다. 마지막으로 다시 같은 구조를 통해 그래핀 자체에서 강한 가시광선이 발광되는 현상을 처음으로 발견한 내용에 대해 소개하고 이 현상에 대한 물리적 분석과 함께 응용 가능성을 제안하며 발표를 마무리하고자 한다.

In the injection molding process, a core that builds a space for a product is installed at the internal place in the mold and fabricated as the frame of the mold. In this make up, the fabricating partial form of the mold at a pin is a core pin. The core pin is finer because an injection mold produces miniaturization and integration. On the other hand, when the core is manufactured using the existing centerless grinder, it generates vibrations because of the lack of a fixed zig for a micro size workpiece. For this reason, an existing centerless grinder without a micron size fixed zig, makes a defective product due to vibration and deformation. In this study, a compact grinding system that can be installed using an existing centerless grinder was fabricated to make a micro size core pin. Using the compact grinding system, grinding experiment for core pin was carried out. The performance of the system was confirmed by measuring the surface roughness, roundness, and cylindricity.

최근 웨어러블 디바이스에 연구가 집중되면서 투명하고 유연한 마이크로 히터의 필요성이 증가되고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 기존의 사용되는 마이크로 히터들은 딱딱하고 불투명하다. 게다가, 기존의 금속성의 마이크로 히터들의 경우 저항이 너무 작아 웨어러블 디바이스에 사용되는 에너지 하베스터로 구동되기에 효율이 떨어지는 경향이 있다. 이 논문에서 우리는 CVD 방식으로 성장된 그래핀으로 열 발생 라인을 패시베이션 레이어로 h-BN을 이용하여 투명하고 유연한 마이크로 히터를 제작하였다. 제작한 마이크로 히터는 균일한 온도 분포와 200도까지의 온도 상승에 걸리는 시간이 4초 정도로 굉장히 좋은 성능을 보유하고 있다. 또한 소비 전력은 39mW 이하로 효율적이다. 또한 기존의 메탈릭 히터에 비해 저항이 굉장히 높기 때문에 웨어러블 에너지 하베스터로 작동하기 적합하다. 또한 미래의 휴대용/웨어러블 개인 전자기기와 무선 헬스케어 제품, 휴대용 환경 센서에도 적용될 것으로 기대한다.

Microfin tubes having an outside diameter (O.D.) of 7.0 mm are widely used in residential air conditioning systems and heat pumps. It is known that the mass fluxes for air conditioners and heat pumps under partial load conditions are several tens of $kg/m^2s$. However, literature surveys reveal that previous investigations were limited to mass flux over $100kg/m^2s$. In this study, we conduct R-410A evaporation heat-transfer tests at low mass fluxes ($50-250kg/m^2s$) using a 7.0 mm O.D. microfin tube. During the test, the saturation temperature was maintained at $8^{\circ}C$, and the heat flux was maintained at $4.0kW/m^2$. For comparison purposes, we also test a smooth tube with a 7.0 mm O.D. The results showed that the heat-transfer enhancement factor of the microfin tube increased as the mass flux decreased up to $150kg/m^2s$, which decreased as the mass flux further decreased. The reason for this was attributed to the change of the flow pattern from an annular flow to a stratified flow. Within the test range, the frictional pressure drops of the microfin tube were approximately the same as those of the smooth tube. We then compare experimental data obtained with the predictions obtained for the existing correlations.

In this study, biodegradable poly(${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PCL) microcapsules containing chemically treated $SiO_2$ and nifedipine were prepared by oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion solvent evaporation method. The microcapsules containing drugs were confirmed using FT-IR spectra. The morphologies of the microcapsules were observed with scanning electron microscope (SEM). The nifedipine's release behaviors from the microcapsules were also examined with UV/vis spectroscopy. As a result, the inclusion of nifedipine into the microcapsules was determined by the presence of nifedipine's specific peak, i.e., C=O stretch vibration at $1682cm^{-1}$. The average particle size of the microcapsules decreased with increasing stirring rate. The nifedipine adsorption capacity and release rate of treated $SiO_2$ that was treated with basic solution decreased because with the increased basicity it lowered the specific surface area of $SiO_2$ and promoted stronger acid-base interactions between $SiO_2$ and nifedipine.

A Raman spectrometer is essential for analyzing the characteristics of graphene. The commercial micro-Raman spectrometer is useful for measuring small areas, but due to the small measuring area, it has limited use in industry, as a sampling measure. This paper suggests a Raman spectrometer able to get a large area image of graphene. By using this image, we can get information on defects and on the presence of graphene. Therefore, this equipment can be used for quality assessment for production of graphene.

기존의 그래핀 성장에 관한 연구는 열화학기상증착법(Chemical vapor deposition; CVD)을 이용한다. 그래핀 성장 제어 요소로는 촉매 기판인 전이 금속[Ru, Ir, Co, Re, Pt, Pd, Ni, Cu], 기판 전처리 과정, 수소/메탄 가스 혼합비, 작업 진공 상태, 기판온도[$800{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$, 냉각 속도 등으로 보고 되고 있다. 그래핀 성장 원리는 Cu 촉매 기판에 메탄 가스를 $1,000^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 분해해서 탄소를 고용 시킨 후 급랭하는 도중에 석출되는 탄소에 의해 그래핀 시트가 형성되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 기존의 CVD를 열원을 이용할 경우 내부 챔버에 생기는 잠열에 의해 cooling profile의 제어가 용이하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 근적외선(Near Infrared; NIR) 열원을 이용한 CVD로 챔버 내부 잠열을 최소화하고, 냉각 공정을 Natural, Linear, Convex cooling type으로 디자인해서 cooling profile 제어가 그래핀 성장에 미치는 영향을 연구 하였다. 이렇게 성장된 그래핀을 임의의 기판(SiO2, Glass, PET film) 위에 습식방법으로 전이 시킨 후, 전기적 구조적 및 광학적 특성을 면저항(four-point probe), 전계방사 주사전자현미경(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope; FE-SEM), 마이크로 라만 분광법(Micro Raman spectroscopy) 및 광학현미경(optical microscope), 투과도(UV/Vis spectrometer)의 측정으로 잠열이 최소화된 NIR-CVD에서 cooling profile에 따른 그래핀 성장을 평가하였다.
