  • We report a fabrication of carbon nanotube (CNT) monolayer thin film using liquid-liquid interface. The multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), which were synthesized by the alumina template method formed a monolayer at the liquid-liquid interface after sonicating the MWCNT water-oil dispersion. Moreover, with the addition of ethanol, the MWCNT monlayer was also formed at the liquid-liquid interface. The monolayer is transferable onto solid substrates and the transferred film was observed using atomic force microscopy (AFM)

  • The effect of titanium (Ti) coating over the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on field emission characteristics was investigated. Since the work function of CNTs emitter is about 5.0 eV, field emission would be observed at lower voltage if this work function gets lower. Work function of Ti is approximately 4.09eV. Field emission characteristics of as-grown and Ti-coated CNTs were measured in a diode-type configuration. The resultant emission characteristics revealed that thin($50{\AA}$-thick) Ti-coated CNTs could be a better electron emitter with lower emission voltage and higher emission efficiency.

  • Carbon nanotube strain sensors, or so called "fuzzy fiber" sensors have not yet been studied sufficiently. These sensors are composed of a bundle of fiberglass fibers coated with CNT through a thermal chemical vapor deposition process. The characteristics of these fuzzy fiber sensors differ from a conventional nanocomposite in that the CNTs are anchored to a substrate fiber and the CNTs have a preferential orientation due to this bonding to the substrate fiber. A numerical model was constructed to predict the strain response of a composite with embedded fuzzy fiber sensors in order to compare result with the experimental results obtained in an earlier study. A comparison of the numerical and experimental responses was conducted based on this work. The longitudinal sensor output from the model matches nearly perfectly with the experimental results. The transverse and off-axis tests follow the correct trends; however the magnitude of the output does not match well with the experimental data. An explanation of the disparity is proposed based on microstructural interactions between individual nanotubes within the sensor.

  • 탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 나노 기술의 대표적인 물질로, 나노 크기의 팁 반경과 100:1 이상의 높은 종횡비, 그리고 물리 화학적 안정성 등으로 인해 이상적인 전자 방출원 재료로 여겨져 많은 연구기관들이 CNT를 이용한 응용 소자를 개발하고 있다. 나노 기술을 바탕으로 한 CNT 백 라이트 유닛(BLU)은 CNT에 인가된 전기장에 의해 전자가 방출되고 방출된 전자가 고전압으로 가속되어 형광체를 때려서 발광하는 원리로 작동되며, 면광윈으로서 고정세의 로컬 디밍, 고속 순간 발광에 의한 잔상 제거 등의 장점으로 고품질의 LCD TV에 적용될 수 있으며, 냉음극형광램프와 발광다이오드를 대체할 만한 차세대 BLU로서 뛰어난 특성을 가지고 있다.

  • We proposed a novel triode-type carbon nanotube field emitter arrays in which extracted gate is surrounded by CNT emitters. We carried out 3-dimensional numerical calculations of electrostatic potential for the proposed CNT-FEAs using the finite element method and compared the results with those obtained from the structure of conventional CNT-FEAs. It was found that the proposed structure could reduce the turn-on voltage for electron emission and improve beam focusing.

  • 수계 나트륨 이차전지는 발화 위험이 전혀 없고, 기존 유기계 리튬 배터리에 비해 고속 충 방전 특성을 가지며, 리튬 대신 나트륨을 적용해 가격 경쟁력에서도 매우 우수한 포스트 리튬 이차전지로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리피롤을 CNT 표면에서 중합하여 나노 코드 형태의 PPy/CNT를 제조하여 수계 나트륨 이차전지의 음극 활물질로 적용하였다. 폴리피롤과 CNT의 복합화에 의해 이론용량에 가까운 용량을 얻을 수 있었으며, 10C 이상의 고속 충 방전 조건에서도 안정적인 출력을 보이는 것으로 확인하였다. 벌크상태의 PPy에서는 볼 수 없는 독특한 전기화학적 특성이 있음을 확인하였으며, 폴리피롤에서의 독특한 충 방전 메커니즘을 제안할 수 있었다.

  • The characteristic of single wall carbon nanotube (SW-CNT) and herringbone nano fiber (HB-CNF) emitters was described. SW-CNT synthesized by arc discharge and HB-CNF prepared by thermal CVD were mixed with binders and conductive materials, and then were formed by screen-printing process. In order to obtain efficient field emissions, the surface treatment of rubbing & peel-off was applied to the printed CNT and CNF emitters. The basic structure of FED was of a diode type through fully vacuum packaging. Also, we proposed a new triode type of field emitter using a mesh gate plate having tapered holes and could achieve the ideal triode properties with no gate leakage currents.

  • Ice formed on radome surfaces causes communication disruption due to radio-frequency interference (RFI), which reveals the importance of de-icing systems for radomes. As a radome de-icing application, in this work, carbon nanotube (CNT) thin films were fabricated using a spray-coating method, and influence of process parameters on RF transmittance and electrothermal properties was investigated. With the increase of spraying time, sheet resistance of the fabricated film decreases, which results in a decrease of the RF transmittance and improvement of the heating performance. Also, the de-icing capability of the fabricated CNT film was evaluated at -20℃, and efficient removal of ice under cold conditions was demonstrated.
