마이크론 크기를 가지는 ITO(indium tin oxide) 입자들은 인듐과 틴의 수용성 전구체들과 유기 첨가제를 분무 열분해하여 얻었다. 유기 첨가제로서는 에틸렌글리콜과 시트르산을 이용하였다. 분무 열분해 시 에틸렌글리콜과 시트르산과 같은 유기첨가제를 첨가하지 않고 얻어진 ITO 입자들은 구형이며 속이 꽉찬 형태를 가지는데 비해 유기 첨가제를 첨가하여 분무 열분해를 하면 얻어지는 ITO 입자들은 유기 첨가제의 양이 증가 할수록 껍질이 얇고 다공성이 증대된 중공 입자가 얻어진다. 유기첨가제를 첨가하지 않고 분무 열분해를 통해 얻어지는 마이크론 크기를 가지는 ITO는 $700^{\circ}C$에서 두 시간 동안의 후소성과 24 시간동안의 습식 볼밀링에 의해 나노 크기의 ITO로 전환되지 않으나, 유기첨가제를 첨가하고 분무 열분해를 통해 얻어지는 마이크론 크기를 가지는 ITO는 $700^{\circ}C$에서 두 시간 동안의 후소성과 24 시간 동안의 습식 볼밀링에 의해 나노 크기의 ITO로 쉽게 전환되었다. 응집된 나노 크기의 ITO의 일차 입자의 크기를 Debye-Scherrer 식에 의해 계산하였고 ITO 입자를 압축하여 만든 펠렛의 표면저항을 측정하였다.

비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지는 1970년대 중반 개발된 이후 현재까지 지속적으로 연구 개발이 이루어져 왔으며, 대면적의 용이성 및 재료 사용의 효율성 등 산업적 측면에서 많은 장점을 보이고 있다. 하지만, 재료 특유의 무질서(disorder)로 인한 Voc의 한계 및 광 열화 현상 등의 문제점이 극복해야 할 과제로 남아있다. 이를 개선하기 위한 시도 중 하나로 나노입자를 포함한 실리콘 박막 제작을 통해 재료의 무질서도를 낮추고 전기광학적 물성을 개선하는 방법이 제안되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유도결합 플라즈마(ICP, Inductively coupled plasma)를 사용하여 제작한 실리콘 나노입자 박막으로 비정질 실리콘 박막의 한계를 극복하고자 한다. 실리콘 나노입자를 사용하여 조밀한 박막을 제작하는데 중요한 변수로는 유도결합 플라즈마 반응기 상, 하부의 압력차 및 이로 인한 제트분사의 속력, 그리고 나노 입자의 크기 등이 중요하게 작용한다. 합성된 입자의 크기와 물성의 변화는 유입되는 반응 가스의 양, 공정압력과 파워에 의존한다. 실리콘 나노입자 박막을 다양한 플라즈마 조건에 따라 제작한 후 XRD, Raman, SEM, TEM을 이용하여 물성 변화를 관찰하였으며, 이를 통해 박막태양전지로의 응용 가능성을 제시하고자 한다.

The functional non-woven fabrics have been applied in various industry fields, such as clothing, hygiene, environment, medical and so forth. The functional non-woven fabrics were manufactured by meltblown and finishing processes. These functional non-woven fabrics were based on 5wt% masterbatch using 2,000ppm nano-silver resin composite. Silver is one of the most universal antimicrobial substances. Nano-technology enables us to expand the surface area of silver particles markedly. Silver nano particles were successfully produced less than 50nm in size. The functional non-woven fabrics including nano-silver particles showed excellent antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538) and Klebsieila pneumoniae (ATCC 4352). From the results, functional non-woven fabrics including silver nano particels probably will be available as a good and safe antibiotic alternative, such as mask medium filter, water purifier filter, hygiene wet tissues, marine products pad and so forth.

An fine silver particle has a variety of uses, such as in killing micrograms and as catalysts. Many techniques have been used for the production of the fine particles. Faraday cell, consisting of two silver electrodes in an electrolyte, is unique, but it is hard to get a very fine particle by this method. A finer silver nano-particle producing cell, utilizing a dielectric bed as a lower electric current and higher field controlling means, has been proposed and investigated. The I-V characteristics of the cell and effect of the dielectric bed on the producing finer silver nano-particles have been investigated. The I-V characteristics of the cell with the dielectric bed were different from that of the same system without the bed, due to the increased cell resistance and elevated electric field intensity. It is found that the proposed cell with the dielectric bed can produce finer silver nano-particles effectively, which, however, can be used as one of effective fine silver nano-particle producing means.

본 연구에서는 brush painting공법을 이용하여 인쇄형 유기태양전지에 적용이 가능한 ITO nanoparticle/Ag nanowire/ITO nanoparticle (Nano IAI) 다층 하이브리드 투명 전극의 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 특성을 연구하였다. 평균 25 nm 사이즈의 ITO 나노 입자로 구성된 ITO 나노 잉크와 직경 20~25 nm의 Ag nanowire 잉크를 기반으로 Brush painting 기술을 적용해 상온, 상압에서 낮은 면저항과 높은 투과도를 가지는 Nano IAI 하이브리드 투명 전극을 제작하였다. Nano IAI 투명 전극 제작 시 일정한 두께에서 Ag nanowire 코팅을 위한 brush painting 횟수를 변수로 하여 최적화 공정을 진행하였으며, Ag nanowire가 2번 brush painting 된 Nano IAI 다층 하이브리드 투명전극은 $3.4{\times}10^{-3}$ ohm-cm의 비저항과 52.33 ohm/square의 낮은 면저항을 나타내었다. 이를 통해 효과적으로Ag nanowire를 ITO nanoparticle 사이에 삽입할 경우, 고온의 열처리 공정을 통하지 않고 낮은 면저항을 가지는 인쇄형 투명 전극을 구현할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 Nano IAI 다층 하이브리드 전극은 83.83%의 높은 투과도를 나타내는데 이는 삽입된 Ag Nanowire의 폭과 길이가 나노 사이즈이기 때문에 입사되는 빛이 흡수되기보다 대부분 투과하기 때문으로 사료된다. 또한, XRD 분석과 HRTEM 분석을 통해 Nano IAI 다층 하이브리드 투명전극의 전도 메커니즘을 설명하였다. 이와 같은 우수한 전기적, 광학적 특성은 brush painting 기법으로 제작된 Nano IAI 다층 하이브리드 투명 전극의 인쇄형 유기태양전지 적용 가능성을 나타낸다.

In this study, a single p-type Si nanowire - Au nanoparticles nano floating gate memory (NFGM) device is successfully fabricated and characterized their memory effects by comparison of electrical characteristics of p-type Si nanowire-based field effect transistor (FET) devices with Au nanoparticles embedded in the $Al_2O_3$ gate materials and without the Au nanoparticles. Drain current versus gate voltage ($I_{DS}-V_{GS}$) characteristics of a single p-type Si nanowire - Au nanoparticle NFGM device show counterclockwise hysteresis loops with the threshold voltage shift of ${\Delta}V_{th}$= 3.0 V. However, p-type Si nanowire based top-gate device without Au nanoparticles does not exhibit a threshold voltage shift. This behavior is ascribed to the presence of the Au nanoparticles, and is indicative of the trapping and emission of electrons in the Au nanoparticles.

Multi shell graphite coated Ag nano particles with core/shell structure were successfully synthesized by pulsed wire evaporation (PWE) method. Ar and $CH_4$ (10 vol.%) gases were mixed in chamber, which played a role of carrier gas and reaction gas, respectively. Graphite layers on the surface of silver nano particles were coated indiscretely. However, the graphite layers are detached, when the particles are heated up to $250^{\circ}C$ in the air atmosphere. In contrast, the graphite coated layer was stable under Ar and $N_2$ atmosphere, though the core/shell structured particles were heated up to $800^{\circ}C$. The presence of graphite coated layer prevent agglomeration of nanoparticles during heat treatment. The dispersion stability of the carbon coated Ag nanoparticles was higher than those of pure Ag nanoparticles.

Recently, innovative process has been investigated in order to replace the conventional high-cost micro patterning processes on the electronic products. To produce desirable profit margins from this low cost products, printed circuit board(PCB), will require dramatic changes in the current manufacturing philosophies and processes. Innovative process using metal nano particles replaces the current industry standard of subtractive etched of copper as a highly efficient way to produce robust circuitry on low cost substrates. An advantage of using metal nano particles process in patterned conductive line manufacturing is that the process is additive. Material is only deposited in desired locations, thereby reducing the amount of chemical and material waste. Simply, it just draws on the substrate as glass epoxy or polyimide with metal nano particles. Particles, when their size becomes nano-meter scale, show some specific characteristics such as enhanced reactivity of surface atoms, decrease in melting point, high electric conductivity compared with the bulk. Melting temperature of metal gets low, the metal nano particles could be formated onto polymer substrates and sintered under $300^{\circ}C$, which would be applied in PCB. It can be getting the metal line of excellent electric conductivity.

Pin-to-disc wear testing experiments were conducted to investigate the wear characteristics of commercial oil (5W-40) with nano-diamond particles. The upper specimen was a SUJ-2 high-carbon chromium steel ball with a diameter of 4 mm, and the lower specimen was made of the Al-6061 alloy. The applied load was 5 N, and the sliding speed was 0.25 m/s. The wear tests were conducted at a sliding distance of 500 m. The friction coefficients and wear rates of the Al-6061 specimens were tested using commercial oil with different nano-diamond concentrations ranging from 0 to 0.02 wt.%. The addition of nano-diamond particles to commercial oil reduced both the wear rate and coefficient of friction of the Al-6061 alloy. The use of nano-diamond particles as a solid additive in oil lubricants was found to improve the tribological behavior of the Al-6061 alloy. For the Al-6061 alloy, the optimal concentration was found to be 0.005 wt.% in view of the friction coefficient and wear rate. Further investigation is needed to determine the optimal concentration of nano-diamond particles for various loadings, sliding speeds, oil temperatures, and sliding distances.

In this paper, we proposed an emulsification method without using an emulsifier and investigated the effects of particle size distribution in fluids on dispersion stability. Surfactant-free oil in water emulsion was prepared with 1 % (w/w) of olive oil by using high speed agitation, high pressure and ultrasonic dispersion methods. The particle size, microscopic observation, and dispersion stability of each sample were evaluated and dispersion stability according to various dispersion methods was compared. As a result, the emulsion dispersed by the ultrasonic dispersion method showed the smallest particle size and uniform distribution of $0.07{\sim} 0.3{\mu}m$ and was the most stable in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the above experiment, four olive oil emulsions having different particle sizes were prepared using ultrasonic dispersion technology that was capable of producing stable emulsions. The dispersion stability of each samples with oil droplet sizes of (A) 0.1 to $0.5{\mu}m$, (B) 0.3 to $4{\mu}m$, (C) 1 to $10.5{\mu}m$ and (D) 2 to $120{\mu}m$, was observed for 7 days, and the relationship between the stability and performance was studied. Emulsion (A) with particle size less than $0.5{\mu}m$ displayed the dispersion stability showing below 5 % change in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the case of (B), (C), and (D) that had larger particle than $0.5{\mu}m$, the changes of dispersion stability were 10 %, 13 % and 35 % respectively. From these results, it was proved that dispersion stability of emulsion with uniform particle size of $0.5{\mu}m$ or less was confirmed to be very stable.
