Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been spotlighted as one of promising field emission displays(FEDs). For the first time, to authors knowledge, we have developed the 9" color CNT-FEDs with the resolution of 240x576 lines. The 9" CNT-FEDs with diode-type and triode-type structures are presented. The well-dispersed CNT paste was squeezed onto the metal-patterned cathode glass. For the anode plate, the Y2O2S:Eu, ZnS:Ag,Cl low-voltage phosphors were printed for red, green, and blue colors, respectively. The vacuum-packaged panel maintained the vacuum level of 1x10-7 Torr. The uniform moving images vacuum-packaged panel maintained the vacuum level of 1x10-7 Torr. The uniform moving images were demonstrated at 2 V/um. High brightness of 800, 200, and 150cd/m2 was observed on the green, red, and blue phosphors at V/um, respectively. Field emission characteristics of a triode-type CNT-FED were simulated using a finite element method. the resultant field strength on the cathode was modulated by gate bias and emitted electrons were focused on the anode. A relatively uniform emission image was experimentally achieved at the 800V anode. A relatively uniform emission image was experimentally achieved at the 800V anode and the 50-180 V gate biases. Energy distribution of electrons emitted from CNTs was measured using an energy analyzer. The maximum peak of energy curve corresponded to the Fermi energy level of CNTs. The whole fabrication processed of CNT-FEDs were fully scalable and reproducible. Our CNT-FEDs has demonstrated the high potential of large-area and full-color applications with very low cost fabrication and low power consumption.

Thermal radiation pastes were prepared by dispersing carbon materials as fillers with a content of 1 weight percent in an acrylic resin. The kind of fillers was as follows; $25{\mu}m$ graphite, $45{\mu}m$ graphite, $15{\mu}m$ carbon nanotube(CNT), a 1:1 mixture of $25{\mu}m$ graphite and $15{\mu}m$ CNT, and a 1:1 mixture of $45{\mu}m$ graphite and $15{\mu}m$ CNT. Thermal emissivity was measured as 0.890 for the samples with graphite only, 0.893 for that with CNT only, and 0.892 for those containing both. After coating prepared pastes on a side of 0.4 mm thick aluminium plate and placing the plate over an opening of a box maintained at $92^{\circ}C$ with the coated side out, the temperatures on the uncoated side of the plates were measured. The samples containing graphite and CNT showed the lowest temperatures. The paste with mixed fillers was coated on the back side of the PCB of an LED module and thermal analysis was carried out using Thermal Transient Tester (T3ster) in a still air box. The thermal resistance of the module with coated PCB was measured as 14.34 K/W whereas that with uncoated PCB was 15.02 K/W. The structure function analysis of T3ster data revealed that the difference between junction and ambient temperatures was $13.8^{\circ}C$ for the coated case and $18.0^{\circ}C$ for the uncoated. From the infrared images of heated LED modules, the hottest-spot temperature of the module with coated PCB was lower than that of the uncoated one for a given period of LED operation.

This paper presents heating process for obtaining standing carbon nanotube emitters to improve field-emission properties from the screen-printed multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) films. In an atmosphere with optimum combination of nitrogen and air for heat treatment of CNT films, the CNT emitters can be made to protrude from the surface. This allows for high emission current and the formation of very uniform emission sites without special surface treatment. The morphological change of the CNT film by this technique has eliminated additional processing steps, such as surface treatment which may result in secondary contamination and damage to the film. Despite its simplicity the process provides high reproducibility in emission current density which makes the films suitable for practical applications.

In this study, two aspects were analyzed about the robot for removal of explosive devices. First, the cost analyses were performed to provide a reasonable solution for the acquirement of the system. It is processed by an engineering estimate method and the process was consisted of two ways : a system development expense and a mass production unit price. In additions, the resultant cost analyses were compared between the cases excluding and including a mines detection system. As results, in the case of the acquirement of the robot system for removal of explosive devices, it is recommended that the performance by improving the mines detection ability should be considered preferentially rather than the cost because the material cost for the mines detection system is negligible compared to the whole system cost. Second, as a way for improving the system performance by the mine detection function, the carbon nanotube (CNT) based sensor technology was studied in terms of sensitivity and simple productivity with presenting its preliminary experimental results. The detection electrodes were formed by a photolithography method using a photosensitive CNT paste. As results, this method was shown as a scalable and expandable technology for the excellent mines detection sensors.

5.2" microtip field emission displays (FEDs) with high voltage applications are fabricated. Nano-structural analysis on microtips is performed for the reliable operation of FEDs. Chemical compositions on the apex of microtips are fully analyzed. A charging mechanism on spacers is simulated and experimentally confirmed with micro-images. A gas-aging mechanism is also studied with integration step of FEDs. The brightness of more than 300 $cd/m^2$ is achieved. In addition, as a new concept, 9" color carbon nanotube FEDs (CNT-FEDs) are introduced using well-aligned carbon nanotubes on glass substrates by paste squeeze and surface treatment techniques. A number of carbon nanotubes, $5-10/{\mu}m2$, are uniformly distributed over a large area. The turn-on fields of 1 $V/{\mu}m$ and field emission currents of 1.5 mA at 3 $V/{\mu}m$ are acquired. Different mechanisms between microtip FEDs and CNT-FEDs are discussed.

We report the preparation and properties of polymer paste solutions with CNTs using conventional paste forming process. Electrospinning has been used for the fabrication of nano-fiber composite. In this process, dispersion of CNTs is very important matter. So, we emphasize the necessity of dispersion of CNTs in the solution and investigate effects of process parameters of electrospinning. The advantage of simple electrospinning process will be discussed..

본 연구에서는 탄소계 나노소재를 적용한 시멘트 페이스트 복합체의 유변학적 특성을 실험적으로 분석하였다. 탄소계 나노소재인 산화그래핀과 탄소나노튜브의 사용성을 고려하여 수용액 상태로 혼입한 굳기전 시멘트 페이스트에서 흐름성 및 레올로지를 측정하였다. 그리고 굳은 시멘트 페이스트 복합체는 만능재료 실험기를 활용하여 압축강도 측정을 검토하였다. 산화그래핀은 수용액 상태로 혼입하였을 때 혼입율 상승 시 흐름성이 감소하고 소성 점도와 전단응력이 급격하게 증가하였다. 탄소나노튜브 수용액도 동일한 경향성을 가졌으나 시멘트 중량대비 0.2 % 미만을 혼입한 경우 산화그래핀과 비교하여 상대적으로 증가율이 낮게 측정되었다. 이는 판상형 형태인 그래핀의 비표면적이 커서 시멘트 페이스트의 흐름성을 감소시키고 소성 점도와 전단응력을 상승시키는 것으로 판단된다. 탄소나노튜브 수용액은 0.2 %이상 혼입 시 소성점도가 일반배합 대비 2.16배 수준으로 급격히 상승하며 전단응력도 상대적으로 높게 측정되었다. 이는 탄소나노튜브의 혼입량이 과혼입 되면서 시멘트 페이스트 내에서 분산이 제대로 되지 않아 탄소나노튜브 간의 뭉침으로 인한 응집효과로 판단된다. 압축강도는 그래핀 혼입시 강도 상승율이 미미하였으며, CNT는 최대 약 12 %의 상승효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 탄소계나노소재 적용 시 상대적으로 CNT를 사용할 경우가 사용 가능성이 높을 것으로 판단되나 최대 혼입량 및 분산에 사용될 계면활성제에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

For the CNT-FED to be cost-effective, many efforts for the lower voltage operation have been made in the under-gate cathode structure. In this study, the effects of the frit proportion in the CNT paste, cathode electrode width, CNT-to-counter electrode gap, and the CNT length in the cathode structure were examined.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have long been reported as an ideal material due to their excellent electrical conductivity and chemical and mechanical stability as well as their high aspect ratios for field emission devices. CNT emitters made by screen printing the organic binder-based CNT paste may act as a source to release gases inside a vacuum panel. These residual gases may cause a catastrophic damage by electrical arcing or ion bombardment to the vacuum microelectronic devices and may change their physical or electrical properties by adsorbing on the CNT emitter surface. In this study, we analyzed the composition of residual gases inside the vacuum-sealed panel by residual gas analyzer (RGA), investigating the effects of individual gases of different kinds at several pressures on the field emission characteristics of CNT emitters. The residual gases included $H_2$, CO, $CO_2$, $N_2$, $CH_4$, $H_2O$, $C_2H_6$, and Ar. Effect of residual gases on the field emission was studied by observing the variation of the pulse voltages with the duty ratio of3.3% to keep the constant emission current of $28{\mu}A$. Each gas species was introduced to a vacuum chamber up to three different pressures ($5\times10^{-7}$, $5\times10^{-6}$, and $5\times10^{-5}$ torr) each for 1 h while electron emission was continued. The three different pressure regions were separated by keeping a high vacuum of $\sim10^{-8}$ torr for a 1 h. The emission was terminated 6 h after the third gas exposure was completed. Field emission characteristics under residual gases will be discussed in terms of their adsorption and desorption on the surface of CNTs and the resultant change of work function.

다이아몬드 연마 필름(diamond lapping film)으로 긴 탄소나노튜브를 절단하고 이를 Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM)으로 관찰했다. 절단된 탄소나노튜브를 ${\alpha}$-terpineol을 용매로 ethyl cellulose를 바인더로 사용하여 제조한 페이스트를 스크린 프린팅과 주사 사출법으로 유리 기판에 도포하였다. 스크린 프린팅으로 인쇄된 선에 존재하는 절단된 탄소나노튜브를 기판에 대해 수직 배향을 시키기 위하여 사포, 다이아몬드 연마 필름을 사용하여 마찰시키거나 접착성이 있는 테이프를 이용하여 접촉시켰다가 분리 하는 방법을 시도하였다. SEM으로 탄소나노튜브의 배향 특성을 관찰한 결과 주사 사출법과 스크린 프린팅 후 다이아몬드 연마 필름을 사용하여 후처리하는 간편한 방법으로 탄소나노튜브의 우수한 수직배양이 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다.
