화학기상증착법과 Ni 나노입자 배열을 이용한 탄소나노튜브의 최적 성장 조건을 연구했다. Ni 입자의 크기를 변화시키는 방법으로 탄소나노튜브의 직경을 20 nm 이하까지 제어할 수 있었다. 개별 Ni 입자의 크기와 위치는 기존의 식각법 등을 이용하여 웨이퍼 수준의 대면적에서 연속적으로 제어가 가능하였다. 성장온도, 탄소원, 희석가스 등의 비율을 최적화 함으로써 $SiO_2/Si$ 웨이퍼의 넓은 면적에서 각 Ni 입자로부터 단 한 개씩의 탄소나노튜브가 100% 확률로 성장 가능하다는 것을 보였다. 탄소나노튜브의 위치, 직경, 벽두께 등의 특성들은 성장조건을 조정하여 제어가능하다는 것을 보였다.

Nanoparticle strips (NPS) are widely used as external reinforcers for two-way reinforced concrete slabs. However, the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of these slabs is a very important issue and was evaluated in this study. This study has been done analytically and numerically to optimize the placement of sensors. The properties of slabs and carbon nanotubes as composite sheets were considered isotopic and orthotropic, respectively. The nonlinear Finite Element Method (FEM) approach and suitable optimal placement of sensor approach were developed as a new MATLAB toolbox called DECOMAC by the authors of this paper. The Suitable multi-objective function was considered in optimized processes based on distributed ECOMAC method. Some common concrete slabs in construction with different aspect ratios were considered as case studies. The dimension and distance of nano strips in retrofitting process were selected according to building codes. The results of Optimal Sensor Placement (OSP) by DECOMAC algorithm on un-retrofitted and retrofitted slabs were compared. The statistical analysis according to the Mann-Whitney criteria shows that there is a significant difference between them (mean P-value = 0.61).

A successful combination of “oxygen-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process” and Co catalyst nanoparticles to grow highly pure single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was demonstrated. Recently, it was reported that addition of small amounts of oxygen during CVD process dramatically increased the purity and yield of carbon nanotubes. However, this strategy could not be applied for discrete Fe nanoparticle catalysts from which appropriate yields of SWNTs could be grown directly on solid substrates, and fabricated into field effect transistors (FETs) quite efficiently. The main reason for this failure is due to the carbothermal reduction which results in SiO2 nanotrench formation. We found that the oxygen-assisted CVD process could be successfully applied for the growth of highly pure SWNTs by switching the catalyst from Fe to Co nanoparticles. The topological morphologies and p-type transistor electrical transport properties of the grown SWNTs were examined by using atomic force microscope (AFM), Raman, and from FET devices fabricated by photolithography.

SiC 나노입자는 고분자 수지의 굴곡특성을 강화하기 위해 사용된다. 본 연구는 대용량 SiC 나노입자가 함유된 에폭시 수지를 제조하고 분산도를 평가한 것에 관한 내용이다. SiC 나노입자를 혼합하는 과정에 교반기와 초음파 분쇄기를 동시에 사용하여 20 wt%의 SiC 나노입자 강화 에폭시 복합재료를 제조하였다. 교반기와 분쇄기를 동시에 이용하는 방법으로 분산속도와 분산도가 개선됨을 기계적 물성 평가와 FE-SEM 결과로 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로 SiC 나노입자의 분산 모델을 구축하였다. 궁극적으로, 탄소섬유(UD 타입)와 20 wt% SiC 나노입자 강화 에폭시 수지를 사용하여 복합재료를 제조하였다. 교반기와 분쇄기를 동시에 사용했을 경우 초음파 분쇄기만 이용했을 경우에 비해 우수한 복합재료의 물성을 나타내었다.

지구온난화 방지를 위해 이산화탄소를 제거하는 다양한 방법 중 이산화탄소 포집 및 저장 기술이 가장 유망한 기술로 부각되고 있다. 이산화탄소 포집 및 저장기술이 상용화되기 위해서는 저가의 효율적인 흡수제 개발이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 금속 나노입자를 이용하여 이산화탄소 흡수속도를 촉진하는 연구를 수행하였다. 코발트, 아연, 니켈의 세 가지 금속나노입자를 합성하였으며 나노입자 합성 방법 중 습식법과 건식법에 의한 영향을 비교 분석하였다. pH 변화를 이용한 이산화탄소 흡수 속도 측정 결과 습식법으로 제조한 니켈 금속나노입자가 가장 우수한 이산화탄소 흡수 속도 촉진효과를 보였다. 금속 나노입자를 이산화탄소 포집공정에 적용할 경우 흡수탑의 크기를 작게 하여 경제적인 공정 구현이 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Two dimensional (2D) atomic layered nanomaterials exhibit some of the most striking phenomena in modern materials research and hold promise for a wide range of applications including energy and biomedical technologies. Graphene has received much attention for having extremely high surface area to mass ratio and excellent electric conductivity. Graphene has also been shown to maximize the activity of surface-assembled metal nanoparticle catalysts due to its unique characteristics of enhancing mass transport of reactants to catalysts. This paper specifically investigates the strategy of pre-formed nanoparticle self-assembly used for the formation of various metal nanoparticles supported on graphene families such as graphene, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide and aims at understanding the interactions between ligand-capped metal nanoparticles and 2D nanomaterials. By varying the functional groups on the ligands between alkyl, aromatic, amine, and alcohol groups, different interactions such as van der Waals, ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding are formed as the 2D hybrids produced.

Although the usage of nanomaterials including carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has increased in various fields, scientific researches on workers' exposures and controls of these materials are very limited. The purpose of this study was to compare the airborne nanoparticles concentrations from two university laboratories conducting experiments of CNTs growth based on containment of thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Airborne nanoparticle concentrations in three metrics (surface area concentration, particle number concentration, and mass concentrations) were measured by task using three direct reading instruments. In a laboratory where CVD was not contained, the surface area concentration, number concentration and mass(PM$_1$) concentration of airborne nanoparticles were 1.5 to 3.5 times higher than those in the other laboratory where CVD was confined. The ratio of PM$_1$ concentration to total suspended particles(TSP) in the laboratory where CVD was not confined was about 4 times higher than that in the other laboratory. This indicates that CVD is a major source of airbone nanoparticles in the CNTs growth laboratories. In conclusion, researchers performing CNTs growth experiments in these laboratories were exposed to airborne nanoparticles levels higher than background levels, and their exposures in a laboratory with the unconfined CVD were higher than those in the other laboratory with the confined CVD. It is recommended that in the CNTs growth laboratories adequate controls including containment of CVD be implemented for minimizing researchers' exposures to airborne nanoparticles.
