최근 들어 금속물질을 나노미터 단위로 구성할 수 있는 기술이 진보하면서, 금속 나노입자에 의해 발생되는 표면 플라즈몬에 대해서도 다양한 분야의 관심이 집중되고 있다. 유전체 물질을 기지상으로 하는 금속:유전체 나노복합체에서 금속 나노입자는 자유전자들의 집단 진동인 국소표면 플라즈몬 공진(Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance, LSPR)현상에 의해 국부전기장을 증대 시키고, 가시광 및 적외선 영역에서 특성 광흡수 거동을 보인다. 이와 같은 광학적 특성은 금속 나노입자들의 크기, 형태, 그리고 나노입자들의 주변을 구성하는 기지상 물질의 종류에 의해 조절된다. 금속:유전체 나노복합체에 나타나는 이러한 특성은 단순장식코팅 뿐만 아니라 광의 효율적 운용과 광을 매개로 한 기능발현을 필요로 하는 디스플레이, 광학 스위칭 소재 및 태양전지의 효율 향상을 위한 광흡수층 등 매우 다양한 응용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 굴절률을 갖는 재료들 중, 저굴절률을 갖는 SiO2와 고굴절률을 갖는 ZnS-SiO2를 기지상 재료로 선택하여 교번증착 스퍼터링법으로 Ag와 Au입자를 형성시켰다. Ag를 금속나노입자로 갖고, SiO2와 ZnS-SiO2를 기지상으로 하는 금속:유전체 나노복합체에서는 금속나노입자 형성에 따른 뚜렷한 표면 플라즈몬 공진 광흡수 피크가 관찰된 반면 Au나노입자는 기지상에 따라 각기 다른 광흡수 특성을 나타냈는데, SiO2기지상에서 명확한 광흡수 피크를 형성했던 경우와는 달리 ZnS-SiO2기지상에서는 특정파장에서의 흡수피크로 규정되기 어려운 넓은 파장범위에 걸친 완만한 광흡수 피크를 나타냈다. TEM 분석을 통해, ZnS-SiO2 기지상 내의 Au입자는 각각 독립되어 있는 Island형태가 아닌 유전체 기지상과 대칭적으로 혼합된 네트워크 형태의 Bruggeman 기하구조를 구성하고 있음을 확인하였고, 이는 Au입자가 형성되고 성장할 때 Au와 S의 높은 결합에너지로 인해 상당한 젖음 특성을 갖고 성장하였기 때문으로 판단됐다. 따라서 나노복합체를 구성하는 물질간의 광학적 특성뿐만 아니라 기지상 내에서의 금속입자의 성장거동에 대한 연구가 수반되었을 때, 금속:유전체 나노복합체의 표면 플라즈몬 공진 광흡수 특성을 보다 정확하게 제어할 수 있다.

The surface characteristics of restoration such as surface roughness and droplet contact angle are important part for the process of bacterial adhesion. The purpose of this study is to compare plaque adhesion by measuring roughness, droplet contact angle, and amount of accumulated plaque on the surfaces of composite resins. Four kinds of composite resins, Z-100(Z1), Durafil(DF), Filtek supreme(FS), Clearfil AP X(CA) were used. Ten samples were divided into unpolished and polished group. Surface roughnesses and droplet contact angles were measured by profilometer and goniometer. Plaque weight gains are measured. The results were as follows: 1. The experimental group were rougher than the control group. Surface roughnesses were decreased in the following order; (Z1, DF, CA)>FS in the control group, and CA>Z1>(FS, DF) in the experimental group(P<0.05). 2 The control group showed larger contact angle than the experimental group. Contact angles were decreased in the following order; CA>(FS, DF, Z1) in the control group, and (CA, DF)>(FS, Z1) in the experimental group(P<0.05). 3. The experimental group showed more much plaque than the control group. The amounts of plaque accumulation in vitro were decreased in the following order; Z1>(DF, FS)>CA in the control group, and Z1>FS>(CA, DF) in the experimental group. The latter showed more much plaque than the former(P<0.05). 4. There were stronger correlation between plaque deposition and contact angle (P<0.05) than that of plaque deposition and surface roughness.

To improve both the GOD immobilization capability and sensitivity of MWCNTs-based biosensor electrode, the electrode was prepared by adding different quantities of GO. The addition of GO increased hydrophilicity and the surface free energy of electrodes for glucose sensing as well as the dispersion of MWCNTs. In addition, the GOD immobilization capability was enhanced and the sensitivity was improved up to $121{\mu}A\;mM^{-1}$ even though having a high $K_m$ value (0.105) when adding 0.05 g GO to 0.05 g MWCNTs. These experimental results were attributed to the fact that the improvement in dispersion stability for MWCNTs, hydrophilicity, and surface free energy of electrode surface due to the addition of GO affected GOD immobilization capability.

Cadmium telluride films were grown by close-spaced sublimation(CSS) technique. The effects of various deposition parameters such as ambient pressure, source- to-substrate spacings and temperatures on the growth rate and the microstructure were investigated. The growth mode of CdTe films showed a transition as the ambient pressure changed. This transition was interpreted in terms of the diffusion limited transport and the sublimation limited transport of Cd and $Te_2$ vapors. Experimental results indicated that the transition of growth mode was related with the mean free path of gas molecules. The growth rate and the microstructure of CdTe films were affected by the source type- bulk or powder. This change was due to the temperature difference at the source surface. XRD and SEM analysis showed that the growth rate was one of the main factors to determine CdTe microstructures.

Dam-break flows, a type of very shallow gravity-driven flow, are substantially influenced by resistance forces due to viscous friction and turbulence. Assuming turbulent flow, the main focus of this study is to validate the increase of drag forces caused by surface roughness and especially turbulence intensity. A Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) approach with the standard k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model is used for this study, where the free surface motion is captured by using a volume of fluid(VOF) method. Surface roughness effects are considered through the law of the wall modified for roughness, while the initial turbulence intensity which determines the lowest level of turbulence in the flow domain of interest is used for the variation of turbulence intensity. It has been found that the numerical results at higher turbulence intensities show a reasonably good agreement with the physical aspects shown by two different dam-break experiments without and with the impact of water.

In this paper, supersonic jets impinging on axisymmetric cone were investigated to obtain fundamental design data for jet deflector case of example being VTOL/STOL or rocket launch. It was of interest to study flow phenomena such as shock interactions and separation induced by shear layer. Experiments were conducted to obtain schlieren flow visualization and measurement of surface pressure. Numerical results are compared with the experimental result. The dominant feature of the flow is the shock pattern induced by the interaction between the cone shock and the barrel shock. This pattern can take a wide variety of forms depending on the structure of the free jet and strongly influences the form of the surface pressure distributions.

In this work the effect of surface treated SiC on thermal stability and mechanical interfacial properties of carbon fiber/epoxy resin composites. The surface properties of the SiC were determined by acid/base values and contact angles. The thermal stabilities of carbon fiber/epoxy resin composites were investigated by TGA. The mechanical interfacial properties of the composites were studied in ILSS, critical stress intensity factor ($\textrm{K}_{IC}$), and critical strain energy release rate($\textrm{G}_{IC}$) measurements. As a result, the acidically treated SiC(A-SiC) had higher acid value than untreated SiC(V-SiC) or basically treated SiC(B-SiC). According to the contact angle measurements, it was observed that chemical treatments led to an increase of surface free energy of the SiC surfaces, mainly due to the increase of the specific(polar) component. The mechanical interfacial properties of the composites including ILSS, $\textrm{K}_{IC}$, and $\textrm{G}_{IC}$ had been improved in the specimens treated by chemical solutions. These results were explained that good wetting played an important role in improving the degree of adhesion at interfaces between SiC and epoxy resin matrix.

Leaky wave radiation and surface wave launching problems in a dielectrically covered and periodically slitted parallel-plate waveguide(PPW) are considered for the TEM wave incidence case. Both the infinite and finite periodic geometries are analyzed by use of the method of moments. Some numerical results for the reflected and transmitted powers in the PPW, radiation efficiency into the free space, surface wave launching efficiency into the slab, antenna gain, and radiation patterns against dielectric thickness are presented to show the effect of the dielectric cover on the performances of the slitted leaky wave antenna. In addition, the method for improving surface wave launching efficiency using the proposed periodic geometry is described and maximum launching efficiency of 97.5% is obtained theoretically. So this structure is thought to be promising as an efficient feeder of dielectric grating antenna as well as image guide.

In this work, the influence of ozone treatment on surface properties of carbon black is investigated in terms of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and contact angles. And their mechanical interfacial properties of the carbon black/acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) compounds are studied by the crosslink density and composite tearing energy ($G_{IIIC}$). As a result, it is found that the increasing of the ozone concentration leads to an increase of the introduction rate of oxygen-containing functional groups onto carbon black surfaces and to an increase of the surface free energy, resulting in improving both crosslink density and tearing energy ($G_{IIIC}$) of the compounds. The results can be explained by the fact that the oxygen-containing functional groups of carbon black surfaces make an increase of the degree of adhesion at interfaces between carbon blacks and rubber matrix.

To investigate an influence of the thermal preheating for the substrates exerted on the heteroepilayers, the ZnTe epilayers are grown on the GaAs (100) at the substrate temperature of 450~$630^{\circ}C$ by hot wall epitaxy (HWE). For this purpose, double crystal rocking curve (DCRC) and photoluminescence (PL) are measured. The full width at half maximum of DCRC are the smallest in the ZnTe epilayers grown on the GaAs thermally etched at around both $510^{\circ}C$ and $590^{\circ}C$. However, at around $550^{\circ}C$ they increase due to the reconstruction of the atoms in the surface. And they increase due to the oxide layer at below $490^{\circ}C$ and due to the surface defects at above $610^{\circ}C$. From PL analysis, the full width at half maximum of the light hole exciton $X_{1s,th}$ and of the second-order Raman line increase at around $550^{\circ}C$. With the increasing preheating temperature, the intensities of Y-bands and of the oxygen bound exciton (OBE) peak related to an oxide layer on the GaAs surface generally decrease. From these experimental results, it's confirmed that the GaAs substrate thermally etched influences the ZnTe pilayers.
