[ $2.1\;{\mu}m$ ]입자경의 단분산 PBA seed를 이용한 2단계 분산중합을 seeded batch process 와 seeded semi-continuous process를 이용하여 다양한 형태의 PBA/PMMA composite 미립자를 제조하였다. Batch process의 경우 PBA/PMMA composite 입자의 모폴로지는 중합 분산매인 methanol/water 비와 중합 2단계에서의 PBA seed/MMA단량체의 비에 따라 크게 영향을 받으며, methanol/water 중합분산매중 물의 량이 증가함에 따라, 그리고 중합 2단계에서 MMA단량체량이 증가함에 따라 PBA와 PMMA간의 상분리현상이 심화되어 구형의 입자로부터 egg, snowman, confetti, peanut와 같은 비구형의 PBA/PMMA composite 입자들이 제조되었다. Semi-continuous process의 경우 단량체 부가시간을 조절함으로서 PBA/PMMA composite 입자의 모폴로지가 변함을 발견하였고 특히, 단량체의 결핍된 조건하에서 구형의 PBA(코어)/PMMA(쉘) composite 라텍스가 제조되었다.

주형합성법을 이용하여 메조기공(mesoporous pore)을 지닌 나노실리카 물질들과 나노카본볼의 대량생산법이 개발되었다. 암모니아, 트리메틸아민, 아세트알데히드 그리고 메틸메르캅탄과 같은 악취 물질들이 마크로기공 코어-메조기공 쉘(macro-porous core/mesoporous shell) 구조체인 나노카본볼에 흡착되는 현상이 상업용 탈취제인 활성탄과 비교 조사되었다. 나노카본볼에서의 악취의 흡착 및 분해는 활성탄에 비해 우수하게 관측되었고 촉매가 나노카본볼 내부에 첨착되면 더욱 악취 분해 특성이 증가되었다. 나노카본볼의 우수한 흡착 및 분해 특성을 이해하기 위해 물리화학적 특성인 균일한 기공, 넓은 표면적, 큰 기공 부피에 관한 기공 특성과 악취의 분해 현상이 연구되었다. 이러한 나노카본볼은 탈취제 분야에서 많은 응용성이 있을 것으로 전망된다.

The monodisperse spherical $SiO_2$ particles were overcoated with $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphor layers via a Pechini sol-gel process and the resulting $SiO_2@Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ core-shell phosphors were subsequently annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ at an ambient atmosphere. The crystallographic structure, morphology, and luminescent property of core-shell structured $SiO_2@Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). The spherical, nonagglomerated $SiO_2$ particles prepared by a Stober method exhibited a relatively narrow size distribution in the range of 260-300 nm. The thickness of phosphor shell layer in the core-shell particles can be facilely controlled by varying the coating number of $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors. The core-shell structured $SiO_2@Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors showed a strong red emission, which was dominated by the $^5D_0-^7F_2$ transition (610 nm) of $Eu^{3+}$ ion under the ultraviolet excitation (263 nm). The PL emission properties of $SiO_2@Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors were also compared with pure $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ nanophosphors.

Electrical characteristics of field-effect thin film transistors (TFTs) with p-channels of CdTe/CdHgTe core-shell nanocrystals are investigated in this paper. For the fabrication of bottom- and top-gate TFTs, CdTe/CrHgTe nanocrystals synthesized by colloidal method are first dispersed on oxidized p+ Si substrates by spin-coating, the dispersed nanoparticles are sintered at $150^{\circ}C$ to form the channels for the TFTs, and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ layers are deposited on the channels. A representative bottom-gate field-effect TFT with a bottom-gate $SiO_2$ layer exhibits a mobility of $0.21cm^2$/ Vs and an Ion/Ioff ratio of $1.5{\times}10^2$ and a representative top-gate field-effect TFT with a top-gate $Al_{2}O_{3}$ layer provides a field-effect mobility of $0.026cm^2$/ Vs and an Ion/Ioff ratio of $2.5{\times}10^2$. $Al_{2}O_{3}$ was deposited for passivation of CdTe/CdHgTe core-shell nanocrystal layer, resulting in enhanced hole mobility, Ior/Ioff ratio by 0.25, $3{\times}10^3$, respectively. The CdTe/CdHgTe nanocrystal-based TFTs with bottom- and top gate geometries are compared in this paper.

We present the structural and optical properties of Au@TiO₂ core-shell microsphere structure prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis method. As a way to improve the efficiency of organic solar cells, the Au@TiO₂ core-shell microsphere was synthesized to use the local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon. The synthesized results were confirmed to have the Au@TiO₂ core-shell structure using a high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. An absorption was observed to occur at 527 nm belonging to the visible light region using a visible light spectroscopy, which supports the LSPR phenomenon. We suggest that the Au@TiO₂ core-shell microsphere is highly likely to be applied to organic solar cells including dye-sensitized solar cells. In addition, we expect it to be widely used not only in the energy but also in the bio as well as in the environmental fields.

The capacity of high nickel Li(Ni_xCo_yMn_1-x-y)O₂ (NCM, x ≥ 0.8) cathodes is known to rapidly decline, a serious problem that needs to be solved in a timely manner. It was reported that cathode materials with the {010} plane exposed toward the outside, i.e., a radial structure, can provide facile Li⁺ diffusion paths and stress buffer during repeated cycles. In addition, cathodes with a core-shell composition gradient are of great interest. For example, a stable surface structure can be achieved using relatively low nickel content on the surface. In this study, precursors of the high-nickel NCM were synthesized by coprecipitation in ambient atmosphere. Then, a transition metal solution for coprecipitation was replaced with a low nickel content and the coprecipitation reaction proceeded for the desired time. The electrochemical analysis of the core-shell cathode showed a capacity retention of 94 % after 100 cycles, compared to the initial discharge capacity of 184.74 mA h/g. The rate capability test also confirmed that the core-shell cathode had enhanced kinetics during charging and discharging at 1 A/g.

Three dimensional (3D) porous structures consisting of Cu@CoO core-shell-type nano-dendrites were synthesized and tested as the anode materials in lithium secondary batteries. For this purpose, first, the 3D porous films comprising Cu@Co core-shell-type nano-dendrites with various thicknesses were fabricated through the electrochemical co-deposition of Cu and Co. Then the Co shells were selectively anodized to form Co hydroxides, which was finally dehydrated to get Cu@CoO nanodendrites. The resulting electrodes exhibited very high reversible specific capacity almost 1.4~2.4 times the theoretical capacity of commercial graphite, and excellent capacity retention (~90%@50^th cycle) as compared with those of the existing transition metal oxides. From the analysis of the cumulative irreversible capacity and morphology change during charge/discharge cycling, it proved that the excellent capacity retention was attributed to the unique structural feature of our core-shell structure where only the thin CoO shell participates in the lithium storage. In addition, our electrodes showed a superb rate performance (70.5%@10.8 C-rate), most likely due to the open porous structure of 3D films, large surface area thanks to the dendritic structure, and fast electron transport through Cu core network.

In this study, a core-shell powder and sintered specimens using a mechanically alloyed (MAed) Ti-Mo powder fabricated through high-energy ball-milling are prepared. Analysis of sintering, microstructure, and mechanical properties confirms the applicability of the powder as a sputtering target material. To optimize the MAed Ti-Mo powder milling process, phase and elemental analyses of the powders are performed according to milling time. The results reveal that 20 h of milling time is the most suitable for the manufacturing process. Subsequently, the MAed Ti-Mo powder and MoO₃ powder are milled using a 3-D mixer and heat-treated for hydrogen reduction to manufacture the core-shell powder. The reduced core-shell powder is transformed to sintered specimens through molding and sintering at 1300 and 1400℃. The sintering properties are analyzed through X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy for phase and porosity analyses. Moreover, the microstructure of the powder is investigated through optical microscopy and electron probe microstructure analysis. The Ti-Mo core-shell sintered specimen is found to possess high density, uniform microstructure, and excellent hardness properties. These results indicate that the Ti-Mo core-shell sintered specimen has excellent sintering properties and is suitable as a sputtering target material.

코어/쉘 나노입자, CTBN 변성에폭시, 폴리에스터 폴리올, 폴리우레탄 등과 같은 다양한 종류의 강인화 소재는 에폭시 수지의 주요 단점으로 알려진 취성을 보완하여 낮은 충격 저항성을 개선시키기 위한 방법으로 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 앞서 언급된 강인화 소재를 선정, 접착제 조성물에 첨가하여 기계적 물성을 조사하였다. 강인화 소재 도입에 따른 기계적 강도의 측정은 UTM을 이용한 굴곡 강도와 탄성률 측정 및 Izod 충격 시험기를 사용한 충격 강도 실험을 통해 이루어 졌으며, 그 결과 강인화 소재가 에폭시 경화물의 유연성 및 충격에 대한 저항성 향상에 미치는 긍정적인 효과가 나타남을 관찰하였다. 또한, DMA를 이용한 저장 탄성률 결과는 굴곡 탄성률의 결과와 동일한 경향으로 나타남을 확인하였다. 강인화 소재가 충격 강도 향상에 영향을 주는 이유는 에폭시 수지에 첨가된 강인화 소재의 상 분리 현상에 의한 것이며, 상 분리된 강인화 소재는 에폭시 조성물의 파단면을 관찰한 FE-SEM 이미지에서 관찰하였다.

무전해 니켈 도금법을 사용하여 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자 표면에 니켈이 도금된 고분자 코어/금속 쉘의 복합 입자를 제조하였다. 단분산 입자는 분산중합으로 제조하였는데 사용한 분산매질의 종류에 따라 다양한 크기의 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자를 제조할 수 있었다. 그 중 직경 $3.4\;{\mu}m$ 크기의 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자를 선택하여 무전해 니켈 도금을 시도하였다. 니켈 도금에 영향을 미치는 도금 조건을 파악하기 위하여 활성화제인 $PdCl_2$의 농도, 착화제인 glycine의 농도와 니켈 도금액의 투여 시간에 따른 니켈 도금된 폴리스티렌 복합 입자의 모폴로지를 관찰하였다. 본 연구조건하에서는 $PdCl_2$의 농도 0.4 g/L, glycine 농도 1 M 이상인 경우 폴리스티렌 입자 위에 균일한 두께의 니켈층을 형성하였고 석출되는 니켈도 적었다. 도금 시간 2 시간 중에서 동일양의 도금액을 투여 속도를 달리하며 도금한 경우 모폴로지 상의 뚜렷한 차이는 없었으나 0.15 mL/min 속도로 1시간 동안 투여한 경우가 상대적으로 균일한 도금 특성을 보여 주었다.
