Pure macroporous silica matrix using a template of polystyrene (PS) was prepared by the sol-gel method. Macroporous Ag-$SiO_2$ composite materials, which were homogeneously dispersed with Ag particles in the macropores, were successfully fabricated. The pure porous silica had ordered pore sizes of 100 nm and 200 nm, which was adjusted under consideration of the template size. The macroporous Ag-$SiO_2$ composite showed the ideal ordered distribution of the pore in case of the adding of 3 wt% $AgNO_3$ under consideration of controlling of the pore size as well as microstructural observation of $AgNO_3$concentration. The macroporous Ag-$SiO_2$ composites had ordered 100 nm and 200 nm pores, and the Ag particles within the matrix showed the size of 15~20 nm.

ITO thin films and gold (Au), copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) intermediate ITO multilayer (ITO/Au/ITO, ITO/Cu/ITO, ITO/Ni/ITO) films were deposited on glass substrates with a reactive radio frequency and direct current magnetron sputtering system and then the effect of intermediate metal layer and annealing temperature on the methanol gas sensitivity of ITO films were investigated. Although both ITO and ITO/metal/ITO (IMI) film sensors have the same total thickness of 100 nm, IMI sensors have a sandwich structure of ITO 50 nm/metal 10 nm/ITO 40 nm. The change in the gas sensitivity of the film sensors caused by methanol gas ranging from 100 to 1000 ppm was measured at room temperature. The IAI film sensors showed the higher sensitivity than the other sensors. Finally, it is concluded that the ITO 50/Au 10/ITO 40 nm film sensors hasthe potential to be used as improved methanol gas sensor.

선박 안전항해를 위해 항해용 해도와 같은 수로 정보와 함께 해사안전정보(MSI), 항행통보(NM), 항행경보와 같이 임의적인 안전관련 정보들이 이용될 수 있다. 현재 GMDSS 제도의 시행에 따라 해사안전정보와 항행경보 등의 정보들이 NAVTEX 등의 장비를 통해 텍스트 형태로 선박에 전달되고 있으나 이런 형식의 정보들은 기존 종이해도 또는 전자해도를 사용하는 ECDIS의 다양한 첨단 항해 지원 기능과 연계하기 어려운 단점이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 사례로 유럽은 e-Navigation Test-bed 프로젝트에서 IHO의 S-100 표준을 기반으로 하는 해사안전정보 데이터 표준을 수립하고 이를 활용한 서비스 연구 및 검증을 수행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국제수로기구의 S-100 표준에 따라 해사안전정보를 객체화 하여 모델링하고 이를 전자해도 정보와 연계하여 활용할 수 있는 방안을 모색하기 위해 유럽의 e-Navigation Test-bed 프로젝트에서의 해사안전정보 연구 사례(S-100 표준 기반의 해사안전정보 제품 표준), 국제수로기구의 해사안전정보 매뉴얼 등을 분석하여 국내 해사안전정보 서비스를 위해 필요한 기술개발 내역 및 방안을 제안 하였다.

As the gate lengths of MOSFETs are scaled down to sub-50nm regime, there are key issues to be considered in the device design. In this paper, we have investigated the characteristics of threshold voltage for MOSFET device. We have simulated the MOSFETs with gate lengths from 100nm to 30nm using generalized scaling. Then, we have known the device scaling limits for nano structure MOSFET. We have determined the threshold voltages using LE(Linear Extraction) method.

In this study, we examined the simulated electrical characteristics of single-gated feedback field effect transistors (FBFETs) and the influence of channel length variation of the memory window characteristics through the 3D device simulation. The simulations were carried out for various channel lengths from 50 nm to 100 nm. The FBFETs exhibited zero SS(< 1 mV/dec) and a current $I_{on}/I_{off}$ ratio${\sim}1.27{\times}10^{10}$. In addition, the memory windows were 0.31 V for 50 nm-channel-length devices while no memory windows were observed for 100 nm-channel-length devices.

The biological activity of particles is largely dependent on their size in biological systems. Dispersion in the aqueous phase has been both a critical impediment to and a prerequisite for particle studies. Carbon black has been used as a surrogate to investigate the biological effects of carbonaceous particles. Here, biocompatible methods were established to disperse carbon black into ultrafine and fine particles which are generally distinguished by the small size of 100 nm. Carbon black with a distinct particle size, N330 and N990 were suspended in blood plasma, cell culture media, Krebs-Ringer's solution (KR), or physiological salt solution (PSS). Large clumps were observed in all dispersion preparations; however, sonication improved dispersion - averaged particle sizes for N330 and N990 were $85.0{\pm}42.9$ and $112.4{\pm}67.9$ nm, respectively, in plasma; the corresponding sizes in culture media were $84.8{\pm}38.4$ and $164.1{\pm}77.8$ nm. However, sonication was not enough to disperse N330 less than 100 nm in either KR or PSS. Application of Tween 80 along with sonication reduced the size of N330 to less than 100 nm, and dispersed N990 larger than 100 nm ($73.6{\pm}28.8$ and $80.1{\pm}30.0$ nm for N330 and $349.5{\pm}161.8$ and $399.8{\pm}181.1$ nm for N990 in KR and PSS, respectively). In contrast, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) exhibited little effect. Electron microscopy confirmed the typical aciniform structure of the carbon arrays; however, zeta potential measurement failed to explain the dispersibility of carbon black. The methods established in this study could disperse carbon black into ultrafine and fine particles, and may serve as a useful model for the study of particle toxicity, particularly size-related effects.

We have studied an organic layer and semitransparent Al cathode thickness dependent optical properties for top-emission organic light-emitting diodes. Device structure is ITO(170nm)/TPD(xnm)/$Alq_3$(ynm)/LiF(0.5nm)/Al(100nm) and Al(100nm)/TPD(xnm)/$Alq_3$(ynm)/LiF(0.5nm)/Al(25nm). While a thickness of total, organic layer was varied from 85nm to 165nm, a ratio of those two layers was kept to be about 2:3. Then it was compared with that of bottom devices. And a thickness of semitransparent Al cathode was varied from 20nm to 30nm for the device with an organic layer thickness of 140nm. We were able to control the emission spectra from the top-emission organic light-emitting diodes.

The effects of microstructural change on the adhesion strength between Cu/Cr film and polyimide have been studied. Cr films (50 nm thick) and Cu films (500 or 1000 nm thick) were deposited on polyimide by DC magnetron sputtering. During Cu deposition the Ar pressure was 5 or 100 mtorr. The microstructure was observed by SEM and the adhesion was measured by T-peel test. Plastic deformation of peeled metal strips was characterized quantitatively by using XRD technique. The film in which Cu is deposited at 100 mtorr has higher adhesion strength than the film in which Cu is deposited at 5 mtorr. And in the film with same deposition pressure of 100 mtorr, the adhesion strength is increased as the deposited thickness increases from 500 to 1000 nm. The adhesion change of Cu/Cr can be interpreted as the difference in plastic deformation.

This paper deposited CdTe thin films on ITO glass substrates using sputtering equipment while changing RF power. As a result of measuring the thickness of the thin film, 1481Å at 100W, 2985Å at 150W, and 4684Å at 200W. And the mobility was measured as 8.43 cm2/Vs for 100W, 7.91 cm2/Vs for 150W, and 6.57 cm2/Vs for 200W. It can be seen that the thickness and mobility of the thin film are inversely proportional. As a result of confirming the transmittance, the transmittance was 84% at 905nm for 100W, the transmittance was 71% at 825nm for 150W, and 77% at 874nm for 200W. At 100 W, the thickness of the thin film was thin, so the transmittance was measured to be high. In other words, the correlation between transmittance and thickness can be seen. As a result of measuring the FHWM and particle size by changing the RF Power, 100W was calculated as 0.18, 150W was calculated as 0.19, and 200W was calculated as 0.73. The size of the particles was formed at 8.47Å at 100W, 7.98Å at 150W, and 8.7Å, which is the largest at 200W. In conclusion, it was found that the FHWM and particle size were inversely proportional.

In the present study, a ZnO thin film, as a buffer layer of ITO (indium tin oxide) film was deposited on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering at low temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. In order to estimate the optical characteristics and compare with the experimental results in Glass/ZnO(100 nm)/ITO(35 nm) multilayered film, the simulation program, EMP (Essential Macleod Program) was adopted. The sheet resistance and optical transmittance of the films were measured using the four-point probe method and spectrophotometer, respectively. From X-ray diffraction patterns, all the films deposited at $150^{\circ}C$ demonstrated only the amorphous phase. Optical transmittance was the highest at a ZnO thickness of 100 nm. The ITO(35 nm)/ZnO(100 nm) film exhibits an optical transmittance of >92% at 550 nm. The multilayered film showed an electrical sheet resistance of 407 ${\Omega}/sq.$, which is significantly better than that of a single-layer ITO film without a ZnO buffer layer (815 ${\Omega}/sq.$).
