Natural frequency of a nano-resonator via nano transfer printing is studied. Through a nano transfer printing, the hybrid metal/polymer membrane may evolve a wrinkle. Natural frequency of a wrinkled hybrid membrane decreases significantly, as the amplitude to wavelength ratio becomes larger. To address the design limit of a hybrid nano resonator, we perform parametric study using finite element analysis. Specifically, we study the effects of the Young's modulus ratio of the metal/polymer membrane, thickness ratio and wrinkle amplitude to wavelength ratio, respectively. The results from the parametric studies can serve as guideline to design hybrid nano resonators.

Cotton fabric was treated with montmorillonite (MMT) so as to evaluate its effectiveness on improving its wrinkle resistance. The MMT in emulsion form was applied to cotton fabric by padding and finally the wrinkle resistance of the MMT-treated cotton fabric was improved. Furthermore, instrumental methods were used for studying the presence of MMT particles on the cotton fabric surface. It was noted that nano-scale MMT particles adhered on the fiber surface and the particle size played an important role in influencing the wrinkle resistance of the cotton fabric. The experimental results are discussed thoroughly in this paper.

Characteristics of the swelling-induced wrinkles on the surfaces of natural rubber (NR) film were investigated. The wrinkle structure was generated by swelling of NR film pre-stretched and firmly bonded onto an aluminum substrate in hexane. A novel experimental method was adopted to replicate the swelling-induced wrinkles on the NR film using an epoxy-hardener system. To get insight into the wrinkle parameters; the wrinkle length (L), wrinkle distance (D), wrinkle height (H) and the angle between two consecutive wrinkles (${\theta}$), the cross-sections of the replicas obtained from saturated swollen NR film were examined using an optical microscopy (OM). From the OM images, the wrinkling parameters were measured as a function of the thickness of NR film from 0.42 to 1.76 mm. Also, it was evaluated that the effects of swelling time on the wrinkling parameters. The length (L), distance (D) and height (H) of wrinkles increased as the thickness of the NR film and the swelling time increased. However, the angle between the wrinkles (${\theta}$) showed a sharp decrease up to a swelling time of 200 minutes and slightly decreased afterwards.

This study provides improved wrinkle recovery and UV protection capabilities as well as an antibacterial and deodorizing function to linen fabrics for summer shirts. The results obtained from this study are as follows. By setting catalyst concentration to 1.2% and DMDHEU concentration to 6% respectively and applying a heat treatment to them at $160^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes, the decrease of fabric strength could be minimized and the crease resistance of linen fabrics improved. Compared to the treatment with DMDHEU only, the crease resistance of linen fabrics could be maintained and degradation of their properties could be more effectively prevented by applying the mixture of the UV absorber and the nano silver to the DMDHEU resin. The UV protection of fabrics could be improved by adding the UV absorber. Although the separate treatment of resin or the nano silver had no effect on the improvement of the UV protection properties for treated fabrics, they could increase the UV protection capability when they were combined with the UV absorber. Linen fabrics could possess an antibiosis and deodorizing capability by applying the mixture of the UV absorber, the nano silver, and the resin. The UV protection, crease resistance and flexibility of finished fabrics were maintained even after laundering. Washed treated fabrics maintained excellent antibiosis and odor free capabilities compared to untreated fabrics.

The transfer assembly (or transfer printing) technique is a promising method for fabricating multi-scale structures on various substrates including semiconductors and polymers, and has been applied to fabrication of flexible devices with superior performance to conventional organic flexible devices. The mechanical behaviors of the structures fabricated by the transfer assembly is a very important information for design and reliability evaluation purpose, but the measurement of the behaviors is difficult since their critical-dimensions are very tiny. In this study, Au films with nano-scale thickness were fabricated on a silicon substrate and their mechanical properties were measured using micro-tensile test. The Au films on the silicon substrate were then transferred to a PDMS substrate using the transfer assembly technique. Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) with a thiol group was used to enhance the transfer of Au films, and the mechanical behaviors were characterized using wrinkle-based test. The test results from micro-tensile and wrinkle-based test are compared to each other, and their implication to the transfer assembly technique is discussed.

기존 liquid crystal display(LCD) 공정에서 Indium Tin Oxide(ITO) 투명전극과 폴리이미드 배향막의 러빙 공정은 액정을 정렬하고 전계를 인가하기 위하여 필수적인 공정이다. 하지만 ITO의 증착은 높은 진공을 요구하며, 러빙 공정은 정전기에 의해 소자가 손상될 수 있는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 기존 ITO 투명전극을 대체하기 위하여 PEDOT:PSS와 Multi-wall carbon nanotube(MWNT)를 혼합하여 PEDOT:PSS 나노복합체를 제조하고, 러빙 공정을 대체하기 위하여 나노 주름 구조 몰드를 통한 나노임프린팅을 통하여 박막을 형성함으로써 기존 액정 디스플레이의 투명전극과 배향막 두 가지 박막을 PEDOT:PSS/MWNT 나노복합체 박막 하나만으로 기능하게 하여 공정을 단순화 하였다. 전사된 나노 주름을 따라 액정이 잘 배향됨을 확인하였으며, 이를 기반으로 만들어진 액정 셀에서 박막 내 MWNT의 함량이 높아질수록 박막의 전기전도도가 증가하여 낮은 구동 전압과 빠른 응답 속도를 갖는다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 공정 단순화와 용액공정에 의한 공정 단가 절감, 기존 러빙 공정의 단점을 해결하는데 기여 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Interest has grown recently in the concept of "unconventional nanofabrication", the creation of nanoscale features by methods that avoid the technical hurdles and high cost of nano-lithographic processes. One of the challenges has been to reliably and inexpensively produce channels of nanometer dimension, as small as 60 nm, in the materials commonly used for soft lithography. In this manuscript, we present new approaches based on simple concepts of wrinkle and buckling patterns.

홍해삼 또는 Apostichopus japonicas는 동남아시아에서 발견되는 stichopodiae의 한 종이다. 본 연구에서는 홍해삼의 화장품 소재로서 사용가능한지 알아보기 위해 홍해삼 추출물의 미백, 항주름에 관한 실험을 진행하였다. tyrosinase 활성 분석 결과, 홍해삼 추출물 $200{\mu}g/ml$에서 tyrosinase 활성을 억제하였다. 또한, 홍해삼은 tyrosinase, TRP-1, TRP-2, MITF 및 matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs)의 mRNA 발현을 억제하였다. 이어서 HaCaT과 human Fibroblast를 이용한 3차원 세포배양을 통해 홍해삼의 피부 턴오버 주기 개선효과를 검증하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 홍해삼이 높은 미백효과 및 주름개선효과를 가지는 화장품 소재로서 충분한 가치를 지닐 것으로 판단된다.

The skin experiences constant physical stimuli, such as stretching. Exposure to excessive physical stimuli stresses the skin and can accelerate aging. In this study, we applied a method that allowed human fibroblasts and keratinocytes to be perfused with media to form 3D skin equivalents that were then uniaxially 10%-stretched for 12 h per day (at either 0.01 or 0.05 Hz) for up to 7 days to form wrinkled skin-on-a-chip (WSOC). There was more wrinkling seen in skin equivalents under 0.01 Hz uniaxial stretching than there was for non-stretched skin equivalents. At 0.05 Hz, the stratum corneum almost disappeared from the skin equivalents, indicating that stretching was harmful for the epidermis. At both frequencies, the production of collagen and related proteins in the skin equivalents, such as fibronectin 10 and keratin, decreased more than those in the non-stretched equivalents, indicating that the dermis also suffered from the repeated tensile stress. These results suggest that WSOCs can be used to examine skin aging and as an in vitro tool to evaluate the efficacy of anti-wrinkle cosmetics and medicines.
