본 연구에서는 펄스레이져 박막 증착법(Pulsed Laser Deposition;PLD)을 이용하여 연자성의 CoNiFe (CNF) 물질과 강유전 특성의$BaTiO_3$ (BTO) 물질을 다층박막 구조로 제작하여 약자장(H=200 Oe)에 의해 에너지를 집적 시키거나 유전상수를 조절하여 박막의 구조 변화에 따른 커패시턴스 변화를 연구하였다. 다양한 구조의 다층 박막은 Si/$SiO_2$/Ti/Pt(111) 기판상에 PLD을 이용하여 증착하였으며, Phillp's X-선 회절기 (XRD)를 이용하여 결정구조와 격자 상수를 결정하였다. FE-SEM, TEM, AFM 및 EDS를 이용하여 박막 표면/단면의 미세구조 및 물질에 따른 조성비를 확인하였다. 자기적 특성을 위해Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM)를 측정하였고, 전기적 특성은 LCR meter를 이용하여 측정하였다.

A superior electrophilic substitution reaction medium that is non-toxic, relatively less corrosive, and non-volatile electrophilic substitution reaction to afford high molecular weight linear and hyperbranched polyetherketones (PEK' s) was developed. The system has very strong driving force to give extra ordinary high molecular weight linear and hyperbranched PEK' s. The reaction medium was further extended to prepare various types of copolymers and covalently grafted polymers onto carbon nanotube (CNT) or carbon nanofiber (CNF). By using characteristic hydrophilic nature of the reaction medium, hyperbranched PEK' s could be synthesized from commercially available $A_3\;+\;B_2$ monomers without network formation via selective solubility of the monomers.

We report on carbon nano-fibers (CNFs) for applying to epoxy as a highly thermal conductive adhesive. In order to fabricate CNFs, electro-spinning process was performed with polyacrylonitrile (PAN) solutions. The sample was stabilized at the annealing temperature of $360^{\circ}C$, and carbonized from 900 to $1100^{\circ}C$. It is shown that the synthesized CNFs have a good thermal conductivity of several hundred W/m K. LED backlight units (BLUs) fabricated with MPCB using CNF-mixed epoxy give a better heat dissipation and higher performance than normal LED BLUs. On the basis of SEM, XRD, and FTIR, the characteristics of CNFs are described.

Recently, the use of thermal conductive polymeric composites is growing up, where the polymers filled with the thermally conductive fillers effectively dissipate heat generated from electronic components. Therefore, the management of heat is directly related to the lifetime of electronic devices. For the purpose of the improvement of thermal conductivity of composites, fillers with excellent thermally conductive behavior are commonly used. Thermally conductive particles filled polymer composites have advantages due to their easy processibility, low cost, and durability to the corrosion. Especially, carbon-based 1-dimensional nanomaterials such as carbon nanotube (CNT) and carbon nanofiber (CNF) have gained much attention for their excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and low thermal expansion coefficient than the metals. This paper aims to review the research trends in the improvement of thermal conductivity of the carbon-based materials filled polymer composites.

High purity carbon nano fibers/tubes (CNF/Ts) which contain 97% pure graphitic carbon are prepared by a new catalytic method. These carbon nano fibers/tubes are ready to use without any further purification. The striking feature of this method is the production of carbon nano fibers/tubes of narrow distribution range. The developed catalytic method also produces pure hydrogen. An additional advantage of this catalytic method is that catalyst can be reused without reactivation. Ni:Cu catalyst system is embodied into SCHOTT-DURAN filter disc of large pore size (40-100 mm). Due to the production of hydrogen in the reaction catalyst stability is enhanced and deactivation process is considerably slowed down.

In this work, carbon nanofibers have synthesized a low temperature using DC Ar Plasma and Fe-Phthalocyanine, and a characteristic difference of the synthesized CNF according to the location of the substrate was investigated. the density of CNFs synthesized on the position (a) were higher than that synthesized on the position (b) [See the Fig. 1]. Also, the length of CNFs was different. In the shape, CNFs with screw and straight line shape were synthesized in the position (a), but only CNFs with straight line shape were synthesized in the position (b). The difference have an important effect on the field emission characteristics.

흑연은 리튬이온전지에 사용 되는 대표적인 음극활물질이다. 그러나 최대 이론 용량이 $372mA\;h\;g^{-1}$으로 제한되기 때문에 고용량의 리튬이온전지 개발을 위해서는 새로운 음극 소재 활물질이 필요하다. 실리콘의 최대 이론 용량은 $4200mA\;h\;g^{-1}$으로 흑연보다 높은 값을 나타내지만 부피 팽창이 400%로 크기 때문에 음극 소재 활물질로 바로 적용하기에는 적합하지 않다. 따라서 부피 팽창으로 인한 방전 용량의 감소를 최소화하기 위해 건식 방법으로 실리콘을 분쇄 하여 기계적 응력 및 반응상의 체적 변화를 감소시키고 입도 제어 된 실리콘 입자에 탄소를 코팅하여 체적의 변화를 억제하였다. 그리고 탄소 섬유를 입자 표면에 실타래처럼 성장시켜 2차적으로 부피 팽창을 제어하고 전기전도성을 개선하였다. 실험 변수에 따른 재료들의 물리화학적 특성을 XRD, SEM 및 TEM을 사용하여 측정하였고 전기화학적 특성을 평가 하였다. 본 연구에서는 실리콘의 수명 특성을 향상시켜 음극 소재 활물질로 사용 할 수 있는 합성 방법에 대하여 알아보았다.

Carbon nanofiber electrode has been fabricated for energy storage systems by the electrospinning of SU-8 precursor and subsequent pyrolysis. Various parameters including the applied voltage, the distance between syringe tip and target collector and the flow rate of the polymer affect the diameter of SU-8 electrospun nanofibers. Shrinkage during pyrolysis decreases the fiber diameter. As the pyrolysis temperature increases, the resistivity decreases dramatically. Low resistivity is one of the important characteristics of the electrodes of an energy storage device. Given the advantages of carbon nanofibers having high external surface area, electrical conductivity, and lithium intercalation ability, SU-8 derived carbon nanofibers were applied to the anode of a full lithium ion cell. In this paper, we studied the physical properties of carbon fiber electrode by scanning transmission microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and four-point probe. The electrochemical characteristics of the electrode were investigated by cyclic voltammogram and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy plots.
