Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a widely used material for replicating micro-structures because of its transparency, deformability, and easy fabrication. At the nanoscale, however, it is hard to fill a nanohole template with uncured PDMS. This paper introduces several simple methods by changing the surface energy of a nanohole template and PDMS elastomer for replicating 100nm-scale structures. In the case of template, pristine anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), hydrophobically treated AAO, and hydrophillically treated AAO are used. For the surface energy change of the PDMS elastomer, a hydrophilic additive and dilution solvent are added in the PDMS prepolymer. During the molding process, a simple casting method is used for all combinations of the treated template and modified PDMS. The nanostructured PDMS surface was investigated with a scanning electron microscope after the molding process for verification.

본 연구에서는 불순물이 포함된 Al 기판으로부터 두 단계의 양극산화 (anodization) 법에 의해 균일한 나노기공을 갖는 AAO(Anodic Aluminum Oxide)을 제조하였다. 생성된 AAO템플릿 위에 Deposition-Precipitation(DP)방법을 사용하여 수직으로 형성된 $TiO_2$ 나노섬유에 Au를 첨가시켜 2 wt.% $Au/TiO_2$ 나노섬유룰 제조하였다. 두 단계의 양극산화를 통해 규칙적으로 배열된 AAO 기공 형상과 기판 위에 수직으로 배향된 $TiO_2$ 나노섬유의 형상을 SEM을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 $Au/TiO_2$ 나노섬유의 특성은 XRD와 Raman 분석을 통하여 $TiO_2$의 아나타제(anatase)와 루타일(rutile) 결정구조와 $TiO_2$ 나노섬유에 담지된 Au의 존재를 확인하였다. 또한 일산화탄소(CO) 산화반응을 통해 AAO(Anodic Aluminum Oxide)기판 위에 형성된 $TiO_2$와 2 wt% $Au/TiO_2$ 나노섬유의 광촉매적 활성을 비교하였다.

We fabricated the electrolyte-dielectric-metal (EDM) sensor on the base of AAO (anodic aluminum oxide) template with variation of the anodizing temperature. When a surface is immersed or created in an aqueous solution, a discontinuity is formed at the interface where such physicochemical variables as electrical potential and electrolyte concentration change significantly from the aqueous phase to another phase. Because of the different chemical potentials between the two phases, charge separation often occurs at the interfacial region [1]. This interfacial region, togeter with the charged surface, is usually known as the electrical double layer (EDL) [2]. The structural and electrochemical properties of AAO sensor were investigated for applications in capacitive pH sensors. To change the thickness of the AAO template, the anodizing temperature was varied from $5^{\circ}C$ to $20^{\circ}C$, the thickness of the AAO template invreased from 300 nm to 477 nm. The pH sensitivity of sensors with the anodizing temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ showed the highest value of 56.4 mV/pH in the pH range of 3 to 11. The EDM sensor with the anodizing temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ exhibited the best long-term stability of 0.037 mV/h.

In photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) compound has attracted intense attention as a photocathode due to not only large optical absorption coefficient, but also earth-abundance of constituent elements and suitable band alignment. With rapid development of nanotechnology, one-dimensional nanostructures of CZTS have been investigated as a potential form to achieve high efficiency because the nanostructures are expected to be capable of capturing more light and enhancing charge separation and transport. Here, we report a well-controlled fabrication route for vertically-aligned CZTS nanorod arrays on anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) template via simple sol-gel process followed by deposition of ZnS or CdS buffer layers on the CZTS nanorod to enhance charge separation. The structure, morphology, composition, optical absorption, and PEC properties of the resulting CZTS nanorod samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, and UV-vis spectroscopy.

Anodic aluminum oxides (AAO) fabricated by the two-step anodizing process have attracted much attention for the fabrication of nano template because of pore structure with high aspect ratio, low cost process and ease of fabrication. AAOs are characterized by a homogeneous morphology of parallel pores that grow perpendicular to the template surface with a narrow distribution of diameter, length and inter-pores spacing, all of which can be easily controlled by suitably choosing of the anodizing parameters such as pH of the electrolyte, anodizing voltage and duration of anodizing. In this study, AAO templates were characterized by X-ray diffraction and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The dependence of the pore size change according to the amount of addition of phosphoric acid, which was used to remove the initial alumina oxide layer, was not observed.

Porous anodic aluminum oxide(AAO) templates prepared by anodizing method were used for growing multiwalled carbon nanotubes(CNTs). AAO templates with the homogeneous pore diameter and length were obtained by two step anodizing technique. Using AAO templates, vertically well-ordered two-dimensional carbon nanotube arrays were fabricated. We investigated the field emission property of CNTs grown using different catalyst metals in vacuum chamber (<$10^{-7}$ Torr) on AAO Template. To explain the different emission property, the surface reaction between catalysts and alumina pores which inserted carbon species of $C_2H_2$ using High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) was studied.

Ordered nanostructure materials have received attention due to their unique physical properties and potential applications in electronics, mechanics and optical devices. To actualize most of the proposed applications, it is quite important to obtain highly ordered nanostructure arrays. The well-aligned nanostructure can be achieved by synthesizing nanostructure material in the highly ordered template. To get well-aligned pore array and reduce process time, rapid thermal anneal by an IR lamp was employed in vacuum state at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hour. The pore array is comparable to a template annealed in vacuum furnace at $500^{\circ}C$ for 30 hours. The well-fabricated AAO template has the mean pore diameter of 70 nm, the barrier layer thickness of 25 nm, the pore depth of $9{\mu}m$, and the pore density of higher than $1.2{\times}10^{10}cm^{-2}$.
