Graphene has attracted a lot of attentions due to the unique electrical and optical properties. Compared with the noble metal plasmons in the visible and near-infrared frequencies, graphene can support surface plasmons in the lower frequencies of terahertz and mid-infrared and it demonstrates an extremely large confinement at the surface because of the particular electronic band structures. Especially, the surface conductivity of graphene can be tuned by either chemical doping or electrostatic gating. These features make graphene a promising candidate for plasmonics, biosensing and transformation optics. Furthermore, the combination of graphene and metasurfaces presents a powerful tunability for exotic electromagnetic properties, where the metasurfaces with the highly-localized fields offer a platform to enhance the interaction between the incident light and graphene and facilitate a deep modulation. In this paper, we provide an overview of the key properties of graphene, such as the surface conductivity, the propagating surface plasmon polaritons, and the localized surface plasmons, and the hybrid graphene/metasurfaces, either metallic and dielectric metasurfaces, from terahertz to near-infrared frequencies. Finally, there is a discussion for the current challenges and future goals.

Chromium-doped zinc ferrite nanoparticles with the general formula Cr_yZnFe_2-yO₄ (y = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, and 0.1) were synthesized by a surfactant-assisted chemical co-precipitation route using metal nitrate salt precursors. The phase purity and structural parameters were determined by powder X-ray diffraction. The concentration of Cr³⁺ doped into ZnFe₂O₄ (ZF) noticeably affected the crystallite size, which was in the range of 22 nm to 36 nm, and all samples showed a single cubic spinel structure without any secondary phase or impurities. The lattice parameter, X-ray density, and skeletal density increased with an increase in the Cr-doping concentration; on the other hand, a decreasing trend was observed for the particle size and porosity. The influence of Cr³⁺ substitution on ZF magnetic properties were studied under an applied field of 15 kOe. The overall results revealed that the incorporation of a small amount of Cr dopant changed the structural, electrical, and magnetic properties of ZF.

Electrical properties of Pt/Ti/Au/Pt contacts to n-GaAs were characterized as the V/III ratio of GaAs grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition were 25, 50, and 100, respectively. The samples have been annealed during 30sec at 350 and $450^{\circ}C$ in rapid thermal annealing, and those specific contact resistance investigated by using transmission line method. According to experimental results, the specific contact resistance between p-metal and GaAs was decreased as the V/III ratio was lower. These results indicate that Si doping concentration of GaAs increased as the vacancy of V-series of GaAs was high.

We have successfully developed the 22 inch WSXGA+ DLS(Data Line Sharing) Panel driving in 75 Hz. In the large size and high resolution panels, it is very difficult to design the DLS Panels without failure because of the very short charging time and the large signal delay. So, we first investigated the charging order to find the most adequate charging type to the large size and high resolution panels. And then, we optimized the design of DLS in terms of improving the charging properties using the technologies of the Delta-doping TFTs, Cu metal electrodes and optimization of panel design value and the circuit signal timing.

MoO$_3$thin films were deposited on electrode of alumina substrates in $O_2$atmosphere by RF reactive sputtering using molybdenum metal target. The deposition was performed at 30$0^{\circ}C$ with 350 W of a forward power in an Ar-O$_2$atmosphere. The working pressure was maintained at 3$\times$10$^{-2}$ torr and all deposited films were annealed at 50$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. The surface morphology of films was observed by using a SEM and crystalline phases were analyzed by using a XRD. To investigate gas sensing characteristics of the doped MoO$_3$thin film, Co, Ni and Pt were used as dopants. The sensing properties were investigated in term of gas concentration under exposure of reducing gases such as H$_2$, NH$_3$and CO at optimum working temperature. Co-doped MoO3 thin film shows the maximum 46.8 % of sensitivity in NH$_3$ and Ni-doped MoO$_3$thin film exhibits 49.7 % of sensitivity in H$_2$.

Magnetic field induced structural transition has been systematically investigated for $La_{1-x}Ba_xMnO_3$ with the fine control of carrier doping $(0.15{\leq}x{\leq}0.20)$. Application of a magnetic field results in the suppression of the rhombohedral-orthorhombic transition temperature $(T_s)$ and the increase of insulator-metal transition temperature $(T_{MI})$. Near x = 0.17, where $T_S$ is similar to $T_{MI}$ at zero magnetic field, we found that the $T_S$ smoothly decreased with magnetic field even though it intersected the $T_{MI}$ near 3 T. Also, the magnetostructural phase diagram obtained from the temperature sweep and from the magnetic field sweep is not significantly modified. By comparing the magnetostructural transition in $La_{1-x}Sr_xMnO_3$, we have suggested that the large disorder originated from ionic size differences between La and Ba may weaken the sensitivity of the kinetic energy of $e_g$ electrons on the degree of lattice distortion in $La_{1-x}Ba_xMnO_3$.

A polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell has been getting large interest as a typical issue in useful applications. The PEMFC is composed of a membrane, catalyst and the bipolar plate. SnOx:F films on SUS316 stainless steel were prepared as a function of substrate with using electron cyclotron resonance-metal organic chemical vapor deposition (ECR-MOCVD) in order to achieve the corrosion-resistant and low contact resistance bipolar plates for PEM fuel cells. The SnOx:F films coated on SUS316 substrate at surface plasma treatment for excellent stability, before/after heat treatment for good crystalline structure and microwave power for were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), auger electron microscopy (AES) and field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The SnOx:F film coated on SUS316 substrate with various process parameters were able to observe optimum interfacial contact resistance (ICR) and corrosion resistance. It can be concluded that fluorine-doping content plays an important function in electrical property and characteristic of corrosion-protective film.

플라즈마 화상표시기 (PDP)의 보호막 물질로 사용 중인 다결정 MgO의 특성을 개선하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 MgO에 희토류계 원소를 치환하여 제조하였으며, 치환량에 따른 MgO 보호막의 광학적 특성과 전기적 특성을 고찰하였다. MgO + 100 ppm $Gd_2O_3$조성으로 제작한 MgO 박막의 이차전자 방출계수 값이 순수 MgO 보다 35% 높게 나타났다. $Gd_2O_3$ dopant가 100 ppm 첨가시까지 밀도가 증가하였으나, 그 이상 첨가시 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 가속전압 200 V에서 이차전자 방출계수는 0.138 이었고 표면거칠기는 5.77 nm 이었으며 투과율은 550 nm 에서 95.76% 이었다.

초고용량 캐패시터(Supercapacitor)는 이차전지와 더불어 차세대 전지로 분류되는 신형에너지 장치로서 충 방전 속도가 다르고 순간 전력공급이 가능하며 충 방전 수명이 반영구적으로 길고 고출력을 내기 때문에 이차전지가 갖지 못하는 영역에서 동력에너지원으로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 초고용랑 캐패시터의 전극소재인 탄소계 재료를 대신하여 비탄소계 전극소재인 $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$의 고상법 제조를 위한 Li/Ti의 최적 조성과 혼합 방법으로 Li-Ti 계에 $Fe_2O_3$, NiO, $Nb_2O_5$, $Sb_2O_3$ 그리고 ZnO와 같은 금속산화물로 치환시켜 합성된 Li -Ti계 금속산화물의 특성 및 충 방전 효과에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고자 하였다.
