나노 소재의 물성을 측정하기 위하여 대부분의 연구 그룹에서는 크게 두 가지 분석 기법인 분광학을 이용한 분석과 나노트라이볼로지를 이용한 분석을 사용하고 있다. 분광학을 이용한 분석에는 NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), IR (Infrared Spectroscopy), Raman 등이 대표적이라 할 수 있고, 나노트라이볼로지를 이용한 분석에는 AFM (Atomic Force Micro-Scope), EFM (Electrostatic Force Microscope), KFM (Kelvin Force Microscope), Nanoindenter 등의 탐침을 이용한 측정 기법이 대표적이다. Nanoindenter는 물질의 탄성 및 경도를 측정 할 수 있으며 이를 통해 물질의 특성을 연구 하는 데에 사용된다. 그러나 이런 Nanoindenter의 압입 실험에서 압입 조건 등의 통제 변수가 다르면 그 결과 값도 바뀌는 것을 볼 수 있는데 본 실험에서는 이런 압입 조건 중 Load - Hold - Unload force의 속도 및 시간을 변화시켜 물질의 탄성계수와 경도가 어떠한 차이를 가지는지 연구하였다.

출발 물질로 TiCx(x=0.67)와 Al 분말을 사용하여 800~150$0^{\circ}C$ 온도 구간에서 상압 또는 가압 반응으로 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$를 합성하였다. 출발 물질로 TiCx(x=0.67)와 Al 분말을 사용한 반응 합성에서는 Ti-Al intermetallic compound 또는 Al-C compound와 같은 중간 형성물은 형성되지 않았으며 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$을 합성할 수 있었다. TiCx(x=0.67)와 용융 Al의 직접 반응으로 80$0^{\circ}C$에서는 Ti$_2$AlC 상이 합성되었으며, 1200~150$0^{\circ}C$ 반응온도 구간에서는 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$ 상이 우선적으로 합성되었다. 저온에서 합성된 Ti$_2$AlC 상은 고온에서 TiC와 반응으로 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$ 상으로 합성되었다. 본 연구에서는 출발 물질로 TiCx와 Al을 사용한 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$ 상의 합성기구를 제시하였다. 합성된 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$의 미세구조는 Ti$_3$AlC$_2$ 상으로 이루어진 결정립이 45~120nm크기로 적층된 구조를 갖는다.

One-dimensional nanosturctures such as nanowires and nanotube have been mainly proposed as important components of nano-electronic devices and are expected to play an integral part in design and construction of these devices. Silicon carbide(SiC) is one of a promising wide bandgap semiconductor that exhibits extraordinary properties, such as higher thermal conductivity, mechanical and chemical stability than silicon. Therefore, the synthesis of SiC-based nanowires(NWs) open a possibility for developing a potential application in nano-electronic devices which have to work under harsh environment. In this study, one-dimensional nanowires(NWs) of cubic phase silicon carbide($\beta$-SiC) were efficiently produced by thermal chemical vapor deposition(T-CVD) synthesis of mixtures containing Si powders and hydrocarbon in a alumina boat about $T\;=\;1400^{\circ}C$ SEM images are shown that the temperature below $1300^{\circ}C$ is not enough to synthesis the SiC NWs due to insufficient thermal energy for melting of Si Powder and decomposition of methane gas. However, the SiC NWs are produced over $1300^{\circ}C$ and the most efficient temperature for growth of SiC NWs is about $1400^{\circ}C$ with an average diameter range between 50 ~ 150 nm. Raman spectra revealed the crystal form of the synthesized SiC NWs is a cubic phase. Two distinct peaks at 795 and $970\;cm^{-1}$ over $1400^{\circ}C$ represent the TO and LO mode of the bulk $\beta$-SiC, respectively. In XRD spectra, this result was also verified with the strongest (111) peaks at $2{\theta}=35.7^{\circ}$, which is very close to (111) plane peak position of 3C-SiC over $1400 ^{\circ}C$ TEM images are represented to two typical $\beta$-SiC NWs structures. One is shown the defect-free $\beta$-SiC nanowire with a (111) interplane distance with 0.25 nm, and the other is the stacking-faulted $\beta$-SiC nanowire. Two SiC nanowires are covered with $SiO_2$ layer with a thickness of less 2 nm. Moreover, by changing the flow rate of methane gas, the 300 sccm is the optimal condition for synthesis of a large amount of $\beta$-SiC NWs.

GaN-related compound semiconductors were grown on the corrugated interface substrate using a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition system to increase the optical power of white LEDs. The patterning of substrate for enhancing the extraction efficiency was processed using an inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching system and the surface morphology of the etched sapphire wafer and that of the non-etched surface were investigated using an atomic force microscope. The structural and optical properties of GaN grown on the corrugated interface substrate were characterized by a high-resolution x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscope and photoluminescence. The roughness of the etched sapphire wafer was higher than that of the non-etched one. The surface of III-nitride films grown on the hemispherically patterned wafer showed the nano-sized pin-holes that were not grown partially. In this case, the leakage current of the LED chip at the reverse bias was abruptly increased. The reason is that the hemispherically patterned region doesn't have (0001) plane that is favor for GaN growth. The lateral growth of the GaN layer grown on (0001) plane located in between the patterns was enhanced by raising the growth temperature ana lowering the reactor pressure resulting in the smooth surface over the patterned region. The crystal quality of GaN on the patterned substrate was also similar with that of GaN on the conventional substrate and no defect was detected in the interface. The optical power of the LED on the patterned substrate was $14\%$ higher than that on the conventional substrate due to the increased extraction efficiency.

Hexagonal barium ferrite ($BaFe_{12}O_{19}$) nano-particles have been successfully synthesised using selfassembly method. Diethyleneamine (DEA) surfactant was used to fabricate the micelle structure of Ba-DEA complex under various DEA concentrations. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders were synthesized with addition Fe ions to Ba-DEA complex and then heat treated at temperature range of 800-1000${\circ}C$. The molar ratio of Ba/DEA and heat-treatment temperature significantly affected the magnetic properties and morphology of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders synthesized with Ba/DEA molar ratio of 1 and heat-treated at 1000${\circ}C$ for 1 hour showed the coercive forces (iHc) of 4.84 kOe with average crystal size of about 200 nm.

Ti-Ni alloys are widely used in numerous biomedical applications (e.g., orthodontics, cardiovascular science, orthopaedics) due to their distinctive thermomechanical and mechanical properties, such as the shape memory effect, superelasticity and low elastic modulus. In order to increase the biocompatibility of Ti-Ni alloys, many surface modification techniques, such as the sol-gel technique, plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII), laser surface melting, plasma spraying, and chemical vapor deposition, have been employed. In this study, a Ti-49.5Ni (at%) alloy was electrochemically etched in 1M $H_2SO_4$+ X (1.5, 2.0, 2.5) wt% HF electrolytes to modify the surface morphology. The morphology, element distribution, crystal structure, roughness and energy of the surface were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive Xray spectrometry (EDS), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and contact angle analysis. Micro-sized pores were formed on the Ti-49.5Ni (at%) alloy surface by electrochemical etching with 1M $H_2SO_4$+ X (1.5, 2.0, 2.5) wt% HF. The volume fractions of the pores were increased by increasing the concentration of the HF electrolytes. Depending on the HF concentration, different pore sizes, heights, surface roughness levels, and surface energy levels were obtained. To investigate the osteoblast adhesion of the electrochemically etched Ti-49.5Ni (at%) alloy, a MTT test was performed. The degree of osteoblast adhesion was increased at a high concentration of HF-treated surface structures.

Recently, hexagonal manganites have attracted much attention because of the coexistence of ferroelectricity and antiferromagnetic (AFM) order. The crystal structure of hexagonal manganites consists of $MnO_5$ polyhedra in which $Mn^{3+}$ ion is surrounded by three oxygen atoms in plane and two apical oxygen ions. The Mn ions within Mn-O plane form a triangular lattice and couple the spins through the AFM superexchange interaction. Due to incomplete AFM coupling between neighboring Mn ions in the triangular lattice, the system forms a geometrically-frustrated magnetic state. Among hexagonal manganites, $YMnO_3$, in particular, is the best known experimentally since the f states are empty. In addition, for applications, $YMnO_3$ thin films have been known as promising candidates for non-volatile ferroelectric random access memories. However, $YMnO_3$ has low magnetic order temperature (~70 K) and A-type AFM structure, which hinders its applications. We have synthesized $YMn1_{-x}Cr_xO_3$ (x = 0, 0.05 and 0.1) samples by the conventional solid-state reaction. The powders of stoichiometric proportions were mixed, and calcined at $900^{\circ}C$ for $YMn1_{-x}Cr_xO_3$ for 24 h. The obtained powders were ground, and pressed into 5-mm-thick disks of 1/2-inch diameter. The disks were directly put into the oven, and heated up to $1,300^{\circ}C$ and sintered in air for 24 h. The phase of samples was checked at room temperature by powder x-ray diffraction using a Rigaku Miniflex diffractometer with Cu $K{\alpha}$ radiation. All the magnetization measurements were carried out with a superconducting quantum-interference-device magnetometer. Our experiments point out that the Cr-doped samples show the characteristics of a spin-glass state at low temperatures.

생물체의 활동 특히 미생물의 활동은 직·간접적으로 전 지구적으로 분포하는 퇴적물 및 암석 내부 광물의 형성 및 변형에 영향을 주고, 일부는 특징적인 생물기원구조를 형성한다. 특히, 특징적인 생물기원구조에 분포하는 광물은 기존에 알려진 무기적 과정을 통하여 형성되기 어려운 환경에서 형성되기도 하고, 무기적 과정을 통하여 형성된 광물과는 다른 물성 및 특성을 나타낸다. 이러한 생물체의 영향을 받아 형성된 생물기원구조에 대해 연구·분석하는 것은 새로운 광물 형성 메커니즘을 규명하는데 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 심해저 망간각 및 해저열수분출공 지역 미생물 매트 시료를 예로 들어, 주사전자현미경 분석을 통한 자연환경에 분포하는 생물기원구조 관찰에 대해 소개하고 분석방법, 장점 및 활용에 대해 설명하고자 한다.

$(Ba(Zr_{0.85}Y_{0.15})O_{3-\delta})$ oxide, showing high protonic conductivity at high temperatures and good chemical stability with $CO_2$ are referred to as hydrogen separation membrane. For high efficiency of hydrogen separation ($H_2$ flux and selectivity) and low fabrication cost, ultimate thin and dense BZY-Ni layer has to be coated on a porous substrate such as $ZrO_2$. Aerosol depostion (AD) process is a novel technique to grow ceramic film with high density and nano-crystal structure at room-temperature, and may be applicable to the fabrication process of AD integration ceramic layer effectively. XRD, SEM, X-ray mapping measurements were conducted in order to analyze the characteristics of BZY-Ni membrane fabricated by AD process. it is observed that it is homogeneous distribution for BZY-Ni. The result of $H_2$ permeation rate suggests that BZY-Ni composite is higher than BZY.
