High-Quality 1-Dimensional InN single crystalline have been grown by Halide Vapor-Phase Epitaxy on the Au catalyst coated Si substrate using the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism. We have been grown 1-dimension InN nanowires having controlled the growth conditions for substrate temperature and gases flow rate. The grown InN nanowire of characteristics for morphologies, crystal structure, and element analysis were carried out by SEM, HR-TEM, and EDS respectively. And the defects of InN crystalline were analyzed by indexing of selective area diffraction pattern with attached HR-TEM. We have successfully obtained the defect-free 1-dimensional InN single crystalline nanowire at the atmosphere pressure.

We studied effects of the 11-Mercaptoundecylphosphoric-acid layer formation on gold surfaces that have the interactions with the titanium dioxide surface for design of gold- titanium dioxide distribution. The atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to measure forces between the surfaces as a function of the salt concentration and pH value. The forces were analyzed with the DLVO (Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek) theory, to evaluate the potential and charge density of the surfaces quantitatively for each salt concentration and each pH value. The interpretation for the evaluation was performed with the law of mass action and the ionizable groups on the surface.

Self-assembled systems with polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers combined with gold nanoparticles have been widely studied because of their potential applications in molecular electronics, catalyst carriers, chemical sensors, and biomedical devices. In our work, gold nanoparticle monolayers and multilayers with pure and ferrocene-tethered PAMAM dendrimers as cross-linking molecules were deposited on a mixed self-assembled monolayer of gold substrates. The various generations of PAMAM dendrimers can be covalently attached to mercaptoundecanoic acid mixed with a mercaptoundecanol self-assembled monolayer. Cyclic voltammograms show that redox peak currents on the alternate multilayers of gold nanoparticles and ferrocene-tethered PAMAM dendrimers increase as the number of layers increases. Fourier transform IR external reflection spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy support the results from electrochemical measurements.

The influence of annealing process in an $O_2$ atmosphere on the photoluminescence (PL) spectra properties of ZnS nanowires has been investigated. ZnS nanowires with the diameters approximately 100 nm and the lengths a few tens micrometers were synthesized by evaporating ZnS powders on Si substrates while using an Au thin film as a catalyst. ZnS nanowires had an NBE emission band at 430 nm in the violet region. The emission intensity was improved drastically by a process in which ZnS nanowires were heat-treated at $500^{\circ}C$ in an $O_2$ atmosphere for 45 minutes.

Nickel-based bimetallic catalysts were investigated for use in direct borohydride/hydrogen peroxide fuel cells. For anode and cathode, PdNi and AuNi catalysts were used, respectively. Nickel-based bimetallic catalysts have been investigated through various methods, such as inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The performance of the catalysts was evaluated through fuel cell tests. The maximum power density of the fuel cell with nickel-based bimetallic catalysts was found to be higher than that of the fuel cell with the monometallic catalysts. The nickel-based bimetallic catalysts also exhibited a stable performance up to 60 minutes.

A photovoltaic device consisting of arrays of radial p-n junction wires enables a decoupling of the requirements for light absorption and carrier extraction into orthogonal spatial directions. Each individual p-n junction wire in the cell is long in the direction of incident light, allowing for effective light absorption, but thin in orthogonal direction, allowing for effective carrier collection. To fabricate radial p-n junction solar cells, p or n-type vertical Si wire cores need to be produced. The majority of Si wires are produced by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method. But contamination of the Si wires by metallic impurities such as Au, which is used for metal catalyst in the VLS technique, results in reduction of conversion efficiency of solar cells. To overcome impurity issue, top-down methods like noble metal catalytic etching is an excellent candidate. We used noble metal catalytic etching methods to make Si wire arrays. The used noble metal is two; Au and Pt. The method is noble metal deposition on photolithographycally defined Si surface by sputtering and then etching in various BOE and $H_2O_2$ solutions. The Si substrates were p-type ($10{\sim}20ohm{\cdot}cm$). The areas that noble metal was not deposited due to photo resist covering were not etched in noble metal catalytic etching. The Si wires of several tens of ${\mu}m$ in height were formed in uncovered areas by photo resist. The side surface of Si wires was very rough. When the distance of Si wires is longer than diameter of that Si nanowires are formed between Si wires. Theses Si nanowires can be removed by immersing the specimen in KOH solution. The optimum noble metal thickness exists for Si wires fabrication. The thicker or the thinner noble metal than the optimum thickness could not show well defined Si wire arrays. The solution composition observed in the highest etching rate was BOE(16.3ml)/$H_2O_2$(0.44M) in Au assisted chemical etching method. The morphology difference was compared between Au and Pt metal assisted chemical etching. The efficiencies of radial p-n junction solar Cells made of the Si wire arrays were also measured.

수소연료전지자동차(FCV)의 핵심은 고분자고체형연료전지(Polymer Solid Fuell Cell: PEFC)이고 전지 중에서 전기화학적 전기를 발생하는 핵심 소재는 백금촉매이다. 백금은 남아프리카와 러시아 등에 편재되어있고, 백금의 세계생산량은 연간 약 178톤이고 고가이므로 리싸이클링 한다. 현재 PEFC에 Pt를 사용하는 양은 $0.2{\sim}0.1mg/cm^2$인데, 전지의 가격을 줄여서 FCV보급을 확대하기 위하여 사용하는 Pt양을 $0.05{\sim}0.03mg/cm^2$까지 감소시키는 것을 목표로 하여 각국이 연구 개발하고 있다. 나노배금 제조기술은 건식법과 습식법으로 크게 나누며 습식환원법을 중심으로 제조하는 방식이 Pt를 제조하는데 유리하다. 나노Pt를 이용하여 폴리올법, 개량형 Cu-UPD/Pt 치환법 및 나노캡슐법 등에 의해 $Pt-Pd/Al_2O_3$, Pt/C, Pt/GCB, Pt/Au/C, PtCo/C, PtPd/C 등의 Pt촉매가 연구 개발되고 있으며, Pt촉매의 활성향상 및 안정화 기술 등이 보고되고 있다. 본고는 나노Pt와 나노Pt촉매의 제조기술 및 폐 촉매의 리사이클링 및 Pt촉매의 응용기술 경향을 조사 분석하였다.

Au 촉매를 코팅한 사파이어 기판 상에서 산화아연과 흑연 분말을 혼합한 분말재료를 이용하여 VLS (vapor-liquid-solid) 법으로 산화아연 반도체 나노선을 합성하였다. 제조된 산화아연 나노선은 380 nm에서 근 자외선 영역의 NBE (near-band edge) 발광과 600 nm 부근의 가시광선 영역에서 넓게 퍼져 발광하는 상대적으로 강한 DL (deep level) 발광이 확인되었다($I_{NBE}/I_{DL}$ <1). 산화아연 나노선을 효율적인 단일 파장 자외선 발광체에 적용될 수 있도록 NBE 발광을 극대화함과 동시에 DL 발광을 억제시키기 위하여 본 실험에서는 합성된 산화아연 나노선에 수소 플라즈마 처리를 하였다. 플라즈마 처리시간이 길어짐에 따라(120초 이상) 발광특성의 향상정도는 점차로 감소하였지만, 수소 플라즈마 처리를 통해 나노선 내부에 존재하는 불순물 제어 등으로 다소 짧은 시간의 플라즈마 처리로(90초 이내) DL발광대비 NBE발광의 세기가 약 4배로 향상됨을 확인 하였다($I_{NBE}/I_{DL}$ ~4).

열증착법(thermal evaporation method)에 의해 ZnO 나노선을 합성하였다. 나노선 합성조건에 따른 구조적 특성을 분석하여 그 합성 메카니즘을 확인하였다. ZnO 나노선 합성 시 기화 온도가 고온일수록 성장속도가 빠르고 $CO/CO_2$ 분압이 역전되는 1000$^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 그 형태가 크게 변화하고, 성장온도 700$^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 Au 촉매가 그 기능을 하고 있음을 확인하였다. 성장된 ZnO 나노선은 380 nm에서의 blue emission을 나타냄을 확인하였다.
