나노 임프린트 리소그래피 기술은 마스터 몰드 표면의 나노 패턴을 물리적인 가열, 가압 공정을 통해 기판 위의 고분자 층으로 전사시키는 기술이다. 이 기술은 기존의 노광 기술과는 다르게 직접적인 접촉을 통해 패턴을 형성하기 때문에 기능성 물질의 직접 패턴 형성이 가능한 기술이다. 투명 전극 재료는 다양한 분야으로의 응용이 가능하기 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. ITO는 높은 투과율과 전도성 때문에 대표적인 투명 전극 물질로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ITO nano particle solution을 이용하여 thermal 임프린팅 공정을 진행해 ITO nano pattern을 형성하는 연구를 진행하였고 이와 같은 기술을 이용하여 glass와 LED 기판에 ITO nano pillar pattern을 제작하였고 이를 주사 전자 현미경과 UV/vis를 이용하여 형성된 나노 ITO 나노 패턴의 구조와 광학적 특성을 분석하였다.

In this study, the feasibility of laser patterning on the surface of food packaging polymer film was confirmed, and the surface patterning process conditions of femtosecond laser were established. In addition, it was proved that the surface properties of the film can be changed and controlled through the fabrication of various patterned films on the surface of food packaging films such as HDPE, PP, and PET. Various patterned surfaces, including large-scale circular patterns induced by a single femtosecond laser pulse, roughness patterns achieved by overlapping single pulses by 30%, straight line patterns, roughness patterns obtained by overlapping straight line patterns, and grid patterns formed by intersecting straight line patterns were fabricated. The characteristics of the patterned HDPE, PP, and PET films, based on the surface pattern structure and size, were analyzed using SEM, AFM, and contact angle measurements. Compared to the surface of each control film without femtosecond laser patterning, the contact angles of the surfaces of large-area circular patterning HDPE and PP films, large-area roughness patterning HDPE and PP films by overlapping 30% of single pulses, and large-area roughness patterning PET film by overlapping rectilinear patterning were in the range of 27.1-37.5 degree. This indicated that the HDPE, PP, and PET films became more hydrophilic after patterning. On the other hand, the HDPE film patterned with a large-scale grid pattern exhibited a contact angle of 120.4 degree, indicating that the HDPE film became more hydrophobic after patterning. Therefore, films that have been changed to hydrophilic surfaces through patterning can be used in anti-fouling applications where proteins, cells, viruses, and other food materials do not adhere or are easily detached. In addition, if a superhydrophobic surface of 150 degrees or more is fabricated through more precise lattice patterning in the future, it will be possible to use it for superhydrophobic surface applications such as self-cleaning.

Reverse-offset printing is one of the technologies that can be used for patterning fine features of the order of a few micrometers for printed electronics. In reverse-offset printing, a coated ink film is transferred to a blanket made of elastomer-like poly-dimethylsiloxane. Then, the blanket is impressed onto a clich$\acute{e}$ that has intaglio patterns. The blanket is deformed by penetrating the intaglio of the clich$\acute{e}$ according to the printing pressure. Excessive deformation of the blanket can cause printing defects upon touching the bottom of the intaglio pattern, especially in large patterns. In this paper, we modelled the deformation of the blanket using the finite element method. Considering the actual printing parameters, a condition for fabricating a clich$\acute{e}$ is proposed to prevent defects by the deformation of the blanket.

Dip-pen nanolithography(DPN) is an atomic force microscope (AFM) based method of generating nano- or micro-patterns. This technique has been used to transfer various ink materials on the substrate through water meniscus formed between AFM tip and the substrate surface. In this study, the heptadecafluoro-1,1,2,2-tetrahydrodecyltrimethoxysilane (HDFDTMS) ink materials were coated on the pre-coated AFM tip surface with the HDFDTMS molecules. When the tip brought into contact with the hydroxyl-functionalized silicon surface, HDFDTMS ink molecules have been successfully transported from the tip onto the surface via water meniscus. The created array and passivation area showed stable structures on the surface, and the transport of ink materials from the AFM tip to the surface followed linear increase in pattern size with contact time.

임플란트로 널리 사용되고 있는 타이타늄 금속 표면을 처리하여 골융합 접촉 면적을 증가시키기 위한 다양한 방법들이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로 단위의 거칠기가 형성된 표면에 나노패턴화된 나노 거칠기를 전기화학적으로 형성시키는 방식(ENF: Electrochemical Nanopattern Formation)을 소개한다.

The purpose of this paper is to present an photoelasticity technique for measuring the displacement and stress distribution in particle assembly subjected to shallow foundation loading. Photoelastic measurement technique was employed to visualize the force transmission of a particle assembly. A model assembly bounded by a steel frame was built by stacking bi-dimensional circular particles made of polycarbonate elastomer. Each particle was coated by a thin photoelastic sheet so that the force transmission represented by bright light stripes can be visualized. In a contacted particle, both magnitude and orientation of principal stress difference can also be measured via the photoelasticity technique. The different distributions of the contact stresses at the initial loading and near the failure were quantitatively compared. The photoelastic patterns and displacement fields observed in the pre-failure state disappears immediately after the buckling of confined force chains.

Recognition of numeral fields is a very important task for many document automation applications. Conventional methods are based on the two-steps process, segmentation of touching numerals and recognition of the individual numerals. However, due to a large variation of touching types this approach has not produced a robust result. In this paper, we present a new segmentation-free method for recognizing the two touching numerals. In this approach, two touching numerals are regarded as a single pattern coming from 100 classes ('00', '01', '02', ..., '98', '99'). For the test set, we manually extract two touching numerals from the data set of NIST numeral fields. Due to the limitation of conventional neural network in case of large-set classification, we use a modular neural network and Drove its superiority through recognition experimen.

This paper presents a model of bipedal leg mechanism with a compliant foot, and the contact repulsion of the foot for a typical walking pattern and its influence on the knee and hip joints of the leg will be analyzed. This analysis is useful for us to figure out the physical impact of the foot when a walking robot takes a step. Also it can be applied to determine the joint specification of the leg mechanism. As a result, it is shown that the compliance characteristics of a robotic foot can contribute to alleviate the joint torques of the leg affected by the contact repulsion of the foot.

접촉운동기구 계면에서의 마찰력은 요소 혹은 시스템의 효율과 직접적으로 연관이 있으며 이로 해 마찰계수를 낮추기 위한 저마찰 표면처리는 Tribology 연구에 있어 기초적이면서도 동시에 매우 중요한 부분으로 오래 전부터 인식되어오고 있다. 또한 대부분의 습동기구 표면이 경화 처리되어 마모에 강한 특성을 보이나 이는 마찰계수가 일정 이하로 낮게 유지될 경우에만 해당되는 것으로 마찰계수의 조절은 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 과거 자동차 엔진의 실린더 라이너 표면에 가공된 사선 형태의 패턴들이 저마찰 기능을 하는 것은 이미 잘 알려진 사실이며 최근에는 이러한 패턴 혹은 형상을 인위적으로 조절하여 저마찰 기능과 성능을 더욱 높이고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이와 같은 미세한 패턴은 다양한 가공기술의 발전에 의해 가능하게 되었으며 그 결과 마찰계수는 패턴의 형상과 분포 등과 매우 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있는 표면 텍스쳐링 분야에 대한 전반적인 연구 동향과 미래의 가능성에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.
