Plasmonic-based biosensing technologies have been successfully commercialized and applied for monitoring various biomolecular interactions occurring at a sensor surface. In particular, the recent advances in nanofabrication methods and nanoparticle syntheses provide a new route to overcome the limitations of a conventional surface plasmon resonance biosensor, such as detection limit, sensitivity, selectivity, and throughput. In this paper, optical and physical properties of plasmonic nanostructures and their contributions to a realization of enhanced optical detection platforms are reviewed. Following vast surveys of the exploitation of metallic nanostructures supporting localized field enhancement, we will propose an outlook for future directions associated with a development of new types of plasmonic sensing substrates

In this study, the carbon monoxide (CO)-fermenting acetogen, Clostridium sp. AWRP was subjected to chemical mutagenesis with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) to generate a CO-resistant mutant. Among the 26 colonies obtained, the highest alcohol production was observed in one isolate, named C1. Compared to the wild-type strain, the C1 strain exhibited 1.5- and 3.4-fold higher CO consumption rate and alcohol selectivity, respectively. The total CO consumption of strain C1 could be further enhanced by increasing the content of metal ions, such as nickel and iron. The highest ethanol titer (5.7 g/l) was achieved by 5-fold increase in the iron concentration.

IPN (Interpenetrating Polymer Network) is a mixture of two or more crosslinked polymers with physically interlocked network structures between the component polymers. IPN can be classified as an alloy of thermosets and has the characteristics of thermosets such as the thermal resistance and chemical resistance and also has the characteristics of polymer alloys with enhanced impact resistance and amphoteric properties. The physical interlocking during the synthesis restricts the phase separation of the component polymer with chemical pinning process, thus the control of morphology is possible through variations of the reaction temperature and pressure, catalyst concentration and crosslinking agent concentration. Finely dispersed domain structure can be obtained through IPN synthesis of polymer components with gross immiscibility. In membrane applications, particularly for the separation of liquid mixtures, crosslinked polymer component with specific affinity to the permeate is needed. With the presence of the permeant-inert polymer component, the mechanical strength and the selectivity of the membranes are enhanced by restricting the swelling of the transporting polymer component networks.

In this study, molybdenum thin films were etched with the various Cl$_2$/(Cl$_2$+SF$_{6}$) gas mixing ratio in an magnetically enhanced reactive ion etching(MERIE) by the etching parameter such as rf power of 185 watts, chamber pressure of 40 mTorr and B-field of 80 gauss. The etch rate was 150 nm/min under Cl$_2$/(Cl$_2$+SF$_{6}$) gas mixing ratio of 0.25. At this time, the selectivity of Mo to SiO$_2$, photoresist were respectively 0.94, 0.50. The surface reaction of the etched Mo thin films was investigated with X - ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).PS).

CO₂ electroreduction is considered as a means to overcome climate change by converting CO₂ into value-added chemicals and liquid fuels. Although numerous researchers have screened versatile metal for the use of electrodes, and looked into the reaction mechanism, it is still required to develop highly enhanced electrocatalyst for CO₂ reduction to reach beyond lab-scale. Plasma treatment applying onto the surface of meal electrodes could improve activity, selectivity and stability of the electrocatalysts. This review highlights the effect of plasma pretreatment, and provides insight to design suitable CO₂ electrocatalyst.

Exhaled breath analysis has emerged as a non-invasive and cost-effective approach in medical diagnostics, particularly for detecting biomarkers such as acetone. This study presents the synthesis and characterization of Cr-doped ε-WO₃ spheres designed to improve gas-sensing performance. These spheres were synthesized via ultrasonic spray pyrolysis, resulting in a material with a complex composition exhibiting high sensitivity and selectivity towards acetone over ethanol (response ratio = 13.2 at 325℃). The enhanced acetone sensitivity of the Cr-doped WO₃ sensor is attributed to the strong interaction between the spontaneous electric dipole moment of ε-WO₃ and the significant dipole moment of acetone. This sensor can detect exhaled acetone, facilitating effective monitoring of a ketogenic diet.

유도초음파의 현장적응에 있어 전파모드를 규명하는 것은 매우 어렵지만 중요한 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 분산성이 적은 단일모드를 발생시키고 검출할 수 있는 기법에 대해 다루고 있으며, 현장 적용성과 자동화를 위해 비접촉식의 기법을 적용하였다. 모드 선택성을 강화한 비접촉식의 유도초음파 기법으로는 선배열 슬릿을 이용한 레이저빔을 이용하였으며, 에어커플 변환기를 수신자로 사용하였다. 선배열의 레이저 조명은 파장과 일치하여 특정한 모드를 발생시킬 수 있다 또한, 에어커플 변환기는 공기 중으로 누설되는 유도초음파를 수신각도를 조절하여 선택적으로 모드를 수신할 수 있다. 1mm 두께의 알루미늄 판에 덕 기법을 적용한 실험결과로부터 제안하는 기법의 유용성을 검증하였고, 특히 단일한 $a_0$모드의 발생 및 수신에 효과적인 기법으로 나타났다.

The effects of CH2F2 and N2 gas flow rates on the etch selectivity of silicon nitride (Si3N4) layers to extreme ultra-violet (EUV) resist and the variation of the line edge roughness (LER) of the EUV resist and Si3N4 pattern were investigated during etching of a Si3N4/EUV resist structure in dual-frequency superimposed CH2F2/N2/Ar capacitive coupled plasmas (DFS-CCP). The flow rates of CH2F2 and N2 gases played a critical role in determining the process window for ultra-high etch selectivity of Si3N4/EUV resist due to disproportionate changes in the degree of polymerization on the Si3N4 and EUV resist surfaces. Increasing the CH2F2 flow rate resulted in a smaller steady state CHxFy thickness on the Si3N4 and, in turn, enhanced the Si3N4 etch rate due to enhanced SiF4 formation, while a CHxFy layer was deposited on the EUV resist surface protecting the resist under certain N2 flow conditions. The LER values of the etched resist tended to increase at higher CH2F2 flow rates compared to the lower CH2F2 flow rates that resulted from the increased degree of polymerization.

Ethyl cellulose(EC)와 platinum(II) acetylacetonate(Pt), rhodium(III)acetylacetonate(Rh)를 이용하여 용매증발법으로 고분자-금속 착체막을 제조하였다. 이때 최종 분리막의 제막조건을 최적화하기 위하여 금속염의 조성을 변화시켰다. (0.3-4.0 wt%). FTIR을 이용하여 EC-금속착체막을 분석하였으며 SEM을 이용하여 막의 구조를 관찰하였다. 그리고 산소, 질소, 이산화탄소, 메탄 가스들의 투과성능을 조사하였다. 금속염들은 모든 가스들의 선택도의 감소없이 투과도를 향상시킨다는 것을 알 수 있었다 그러나 Pt의 경우 산소와 질소가스의 투과성능에 더 영향이 있었으며, Rh은 이산화탄소와 메탄가스의 투과도에 더 영향이 있음을 알 수 있었다. EC-Pt 착체막의 경우에는, Pt의 산소와의 친화력특성에 기인하여 산소/질소의 선택도가 증가(37%)하는 것을 보여주었다.

In this study, molybdenum thin films were etched with Cl\ulcorner/(Cl\ulcorner+SF\ulcorner) gas mixing ratio in an magneti-cally enhanced reactive ion etching(MERIE) by the etching parameters such as rf power of 250 watts, chamber pressure of 100 mTorr and B-field of 30 gauss. The etch rate was 150nm/min under Cl\ulcorner/(Cl\ulcorner+SF\ulcorner) gas mixing ratio of 0.25. At this time, the selectivity of Mo to SiO\ulcorner, photoresist were respectively 0.94, 0.05. The surface reaction of the etched Mo thin films was investigated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). It was analyzed that Mo peaks was mainly observed in Mo-O bonds formed MoO\ulcorner compounds and F was detected in Mo-F and O-F bonds. Cl peaks were detected by the peak of Cl 2p\ulcorner in Cl-Mo bonds of MoCl\ulcorner or MoO\ulcornerCl\ulcorner formulas. Almost all of both Cl and S atoms had been com-bined with Mo, respectively.
