Recently mass spectrometry and separation methods such as liquid chromatography have become major tools in the field of proteomics. In this report, we describe in detail our efforts to develop ultra-high pressure capillary reverse-phase liquid chromatography (cRPLC) and its online coupling to a mass spectrometer by a nanoelectrospray (nanoESI) interface. The RPLC system is constructed in house to deliver LC solvents at the pressure up to 20,000 psig, which is four times higher than conventional RPLC systems. The high operation pressure allows the efficient use of packed micro-capillary columns (50, 75 and 150 ${\mu}$m i.d., up to 1.5 m long). We will discuss the effect of column diameter on the sensitivity of cRPLC/MS/MS experiments and the utility of the developed technique for proteome analysis by its application in the analysis of proteome samples having different levels of complexity.

The nature of the nematic liquid crystal (LC) alignment induced by the rubbed polyimide (PI) alignment layers (ALs) and the electro-optical (EO) properties of the LC cells are expected to depend on the chemical and physical features of the PI. By employing five pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA)-type PIs having different functionalities, we have studied the effects of the PI's structure and chemistry on the alignment characteristics and the cell's EO properties. Increasing the flexibility of the PI increases the pretilt angle and tends to improve the alignment stability. On the other hand, the rigid, fluorinated PI displays poor stability for LCs and induces a less stable/uniform LC alignment and, subsequently, a small pre tilt angle. It also transpired that fluorination of the PI deteriorated the voltage-transmittance characteristics and the voltage holding ratio; increasing the flexibility of the PI structure improves these EO properties. The finding that the qualitative trends for the PI's functionalities are similar for both the alignment and EO properties suggests that the EO properties are closely related to the alignment characteristics, which are determined by short-range interactions between LC and PI molecules.

This study demonstrates the electrochemical conversion of the synthetic procedure of monolayer-protected clusters using a thin toluene layer over an edge plane pyrolytic graphite electrode. A thin toluene layer with a thickness of 0.31 mm was coated over the electrode and an immiscible liquid/liquid water/toluene interface was introduced. The transfer of the tetrachloroaurate ($AuCl_4^-$) ions into the toluene layer interposed between the aqueous solution and the electrode surface was electrochemically monitored. The $AuCl_4^-$ ions initially could not move through into the toluene layer, showing no reduction wave, but, in the presence of the phase transfer reagent, tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOABr), a cathodic wave at 0.23 V vs. Ag/AgCl was observed, indicating the reduction of the transferred $AuCl_4^-$ ions in the toluene layer. In the presence of dodecanethiol together with TOABr, a self-assembled monolayer was formed over the electro-deposited metallic gold surface. The E-SEM image of the surface indicates the formation of a highly porous metallic gold surface, rather than individual nanoparticles, over the EPG electrode.

다중벽 탄소 나노튜브(Carbon nanotube, MWNTs)의 우수한 전기적 기계적 특성과 폴리우레탄의 우수한 기계적 물성을 이용하여 우수한 전기 전도성 복합체를 제조하기 위하여 말단기가 polyurethane로 기능화 된 탄소 나노튜브(PU-g-MWNTs)를 제조하였다. 말단기에 형성된 폴리우레탄과 고분자 메트릭스 간의 상용성으로 인한 계면 접합력으로 인해 기능화된 CNT 복합체 기능화 되지 않은 CNT에 비해 우수한 분산성을 나타내었다. PU-g-MWNT/PU 복합체의 전기 전도성을 PU-g-MWNT의 농도에 따라 측정하였으며 percolation threshold 이론에 의해 해석하였다. 그 결과 PU-g-MWNT/PU 복합체의 전기전도성은 임계농도 0.78 wt%과 임계지수 0.945를 가짐을 확인하였다.

We have synthesized a new material of polyoxetane based liquid crystalline polymer/liquid crystal (LCP/LC) for flexible memory or dynamic mode device and characterized the electro-optics behavior of this system. The microscopic dynamic behavior of main chain, side chain, and the low molecular weight LC were characterized by X-ray scattering and time resolved FTIR..

The continuous monolayer graphene was synthesized on electro-polished copper foil. Electro-polishing sticks off the coating layer of copper foil, which prevents the continuous graphene growth. The quality of continuous graphene is dependent on roughness of copper foil. Copper foil roughness could be controlled by changing polishing condition. The effects of working voltage (4-6 V) and time (30-70 sec) for electro-polishing were systematically examined. The change of surface roughness was checked with AFM.

New photopolymers were designed and prepared using the photosensitive polymer binders. Holographic gratings were successfully fabricated in these photopolymer samples by a conventional optical interference method. We also investigated the effect of photocrosslink in the polymer binder on the diffraction behavior of a new photopolymer. The dynamic behavior of the grating formation was monitored by changing exposure intensity in terms of the diffraction efficiency. Particularly, we focused our efforts in observing the variation of diffraction efficiency during a post UV curing process. The surface topographical change of photopolymer layer before and after Vis/UV light exposure was observed by atomic force microscope (AFM). We inscribed the gratings of the glass diffuser on the surface of the photopolymer and investigated their diffusing properties. The diffusers with photopolymer with the main chain polymer binder showed relatively good viewing angle of around ${\pm}30{\circ}$. Two kinds of photopolymer showed similar uniformity of around 47-54%.
