  • 해양환경 오염에 대한 관심이 많아지면서 해양환경 인자에 대한 감시가 그 중요성을 더해 가고 있다. 지금까지는 이에 대한 감지를 위한 센서의 부재로 인하여 해수를 채취하여 실험실에서 고가의 장비를 이용하여 분석하여 왔다. 이는 해양의 실시간 감시가 어려울 뿐 아니라 급변하는 해양 상태를 정확하게 파악하기 어려운 면이 있어왔다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기위해서 나노기술을 이용한 해양용 센서 개발이 시급히 요구되는 바 이에 대한 기술적인 분야와 특징 및 타당성을 검토하였다 현재 기술적으로 개발이 가능하고 국제적으로 경쟁력이 있는 분야로는 나노스핀소자를 이용한 바이오분자 감지, 탄소나노튜브의 전도성 변화에 따른 해양인자 감시기술, 그리고 나노반도체를 이용한 적조관련 미생물 감지 기술을 제시하였다. 이 기술들의 특징과 해양환경에서의 적용을 위하여 개발하여야 할 요소 기술을 찾아보고 문제점들을 극복할 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다.

  • This paper presents an overview of the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes. The characteristics of carbon nanotubes were briefly introduced. We then present briefly the experimental techniques used to measure mechanical properties and the results obtained by other researchers. A carbon nanotube is too small to be pulled apart with standard tension devices. Manipulators should be used for mechanical testing. We introduced manipulation methods using nanomanipulators under field-emission scanning-electron microscope.

  • The electronic properties of Carbon Nanotube(CNT) are currently the focus of considerable interest. In this paper, the electronic properties of finite length effect in CNT for the carbon nano-scale device is presented. To Calculate the electronic properties of CNT, Empirical potential method (the extended Brenner potential for C-Si-H) for carbon and Tight Binding molecular dynamic (TBMD) simulation are used. As a result of study, we have known that the value of the band gap decreases with increasing the length of the tube. The energy band gap of (6,6) armchair CNT have the ranges between 0.3 eV and 2.5 eV. Also, our results are in agreements with the result of the other computational techniques.

  • CNT(Carbon Nanotube)는 특이한 구조 및 뛰어난 물성을 갖고 있어, 여러가지 분야에 응용 가능한 신소재로서 연구되어 왔다. 또한 모양 및 구조에 따라 기계, 전기, 화학적인 특성이 달라 다양한 분야에서 활용이 가능하다. 외국에서는 FED tip, TR, 디스플레이 소자, 수소저장체, 고강도 복합체 및 대 표면적 전극 등 CNT의 다양한 특성을 이용한 응용이 연구되고 있는 반면, 국내에서는 이론연구와 합성연구에 편중되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 열 화학 기상법 (Thermal CVD)을 이용하여 MWNT(Multi-wall nano tube)를 성장시켜 촉매두께, 온도, gas변수에 따른 CNT의 양상을 분석하였다. Ni catalyst는 DC magnetron sputter를 이용하여 5~50nm 두께로 증착하였으며, 성장온도는 $800^{\circ}C$에서 $950^{\circ}C$까지 변화시켰다. 기판의 pre-treatment 로 ammonia($NH_3$) gas를 주입한 후, carbon precursor인 methane($CH_4$) gas와 $H_2$ dilute gas를 1:4의 비율로 주입하여 CNT를 성장시켰다. FE-SEM과 TEM, 그리고 XRD를 이용해 성장된 CNT의 형상 및 구조를 분석한 결과, 낮은 온도에서는 100nm이상의 두께를 갖는 수직형상의 MWNT가 성장되었으며, $900^{\circ}C$이상의 높은 온도에서는 20nm이하의 amorphous carbon nano rod가 성장되었다. 각각의 MWNT, carbon nano rod는 온도가 높을수록 직경이 증가하는 추세를 나타냈으며, Ni catalyst가 얇아질수록 수직형상을 갖는 결과가 나타났다. 또한 ammonia gas의 pre-treatment여부에 따라 CNT의 수직 형상이 좌우되는 결과를 확인하였다. 향후 성장된 MWNT의 최적 조건을 도출하여 디스플레이 소자인 FED(Field Emission Display)분야 등에 응용 가능할 것으로 전망된다.

  • The rapid prototyping (RP) technology has been advanced for various applications such as verification of design, functional test. However, many RP machines still have low accuracy and limitation of applications for various materials. In this research, a hybrid RP system was developed to improve precision of micro parts. This hybrid system consists of deposition and material removal process by mechanical micro machining to fabricate nano composites using photo-curable polymer resin with various nano particles. In this work, using hybrid RP process with Multi-Walled Carbon Nano Tube (MWCNT) and hydroxyapatite, micro parts were fabricated. The precision of parts was evaluated based on the original CAD design, and to see the effect of nano particles on mechanical properties, tensile strength was measured. From the results of experiments, it was confirmed that the part made by hybrid process had higher precision, and the addition of nano particles improved mechanical properties.

  • A powder-in-sheath rolling method is applied to the fabrication of a carbon nano tube (CNT) reinforced copper composite. A copper tube with outer diameter of 30 mm and wall thickness of 2 mm is used as sheath material. A mixture of pure copper powder and CNTs with a volume content of 3 % is filled in a tube by tap filling and then processed to an 93.3 % reduction using multi-pass rolling after heating for 0.5 h at 400 ℃. The specimen is then sintered for 1h at 500 ℃. The relative density of the 3 vol%CNT/Cu composite fabricated using powder in sheath rolling is 98 %, while that of the Cu powder compact is 99 %. The microstructure is somewhat heterogeneous in width direction in the composite, but is relatively homogeneous in the Cu powder compact. The hardness distribution is also ununiform in the width direction for the composite. The average hardness of the composites is higher by 8Hv than that of Cu powder compact. The tensile strength of the composite is 280 MPa, which is 20 MPa higher than that of the Cu powder compact. It is concluded that the powder in sheath rolling method is an effective process for fabrication of sound CNT reinforced Cu matrix composites.

  • Carbon nanotube(CNT) has been spotlighted as a promising candidate for catalyst support material for PEMFC (proton exchange membrane fuel cell). The considerable properties of CNT include high surface area, outstanding thermal, electrical conductivity and mechanical stability. In this study, to fully utilize the properties of CNTs, we prepared directly oriented CNT on carbon paper as a catalyst support in the cathode electrode. The CNT layer was prepared by a chemical vapor deposition(CVD) process. And the Pt particles were deposited on the CNT oriented carbon paper by impregnation and eletro-deposition method. The potential advantages of directly oriented CNT on carbon paper can include improved thermal and charge transfer through direct contact between the electrolyte and the electrode and enhanced exposure of Pt catalyst sites during the reaction.

  • Zinc ethyl silicate coatings containing multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were prepared, to which we added spherical and flake shaped zinc particles. The anti-corrosive effects of MWCNTs and zinc shapes on the zinc ethyl silicate coated carbon steel was examined, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and corrosion potential measurement. The results of EIS and corrosion potential measurement showed that the zinc ethyl silicate coated with flake shaped zinc particles and MWCNT showed lesser protection to corrosion. These outcomes were in agreement with previous results of corrosion potential and corrosion occurrence.

  • We present a synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNTs) for enhancement of parallel-alignment and density using chemical vapor deposition with methane feed gas. As-purchased ST-cut quartz substrates were heat-treated and line-patterned by electron-beam lithography in order to grow SWNTs with parallel alignment. We investigated the effects of various synthesis parameters such as catalyst oxidation, reduction, and synthesis conditions in order to enhance both tube density and degree of parallel alignment. The condition of $1{\AA}$ of Fe catalyst film, atmospheric oxidation at $750^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, reduction under 400 Torr for 5 min, and growth at $865^{\circ}C$ under 300 Torr yields $33tubes/10{\mu}m$, which is the highest tube density with parallel alignment. Based on the results of atomic force microscope and Raman spectroscopy, it was found that SWNTs have diameter range of 0.8-2.0 nm. We believe that the present work would contribute to the development of SWNTs-based flexible functional devices.

  • Studies on porous oxide electrode, dye and electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells have been intensively carried out until now. However, counter electrode have not been much studied so far. Accordingly, it is needed to investigate new counter electrode materials with superior catalyst property and to substitute for Pt electrode. In this case, carbon nano-tubes (CNTs) are one of alternatives for counter electrodes as following merits: low resistivity, excellent electron emission property, large surface area and low cost due to development of mass production technique. Such advantages gave us to select multiwalled CNTs (MWCNT) as counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cell. Also, cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy were used to investigate electrochemical properties of both CNT electrode and Pt electrode. It was found that sheet resistance of CNT electrode was similar to that of Pt electrode, also, electrochemical properties of CNT electrode was superior to that of Pt electrode on the basis on the measurement of CV and impedance spectrum. It was found that CNT is likely to be a very promising electrode material for dye solar cells.
