Smart sensors and actuators have recently been developed. In this study, first, small-diameter fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors developed by the author, whose cladding and polyimide coating diameters were 40 and $52{\mu}m$, respectively, were embedded inside a laminate without resin-rich regions around sensors and the deterioration of mechanical properties of the composite laminate. The small-diameter FBG sensor was embedded in $0^{\circ}$ ply of a CFRP laminate for the detection of transverse cracks in $90^{\circ}$ ply of the laminate. The reflection spectra from the FBG sensor were measured at various tensile stresses. The spectrum became broad and had some peaks with an increase of the transverse crack density. Furthermore, the theoretical calculation reproduced the change in the spectrum very well. These results show that the small-diameter FBG sensors have a potential to detect the occurrence of transverse cracks through the change in the form of the spectrum, and to evaluate the transverse crack density quantitatively by the spectrum width. On the other hand, shape memory alloy (SMA) films were used to suppress the initiation and growth of transverse cracks in CFRP laminates. Pre-strained SMA films were embedded between laminas in CFRP laminates and then heated to introduce the recovery stress in SMA films and compressive stresses in the weakest plies ($90^{\circ}$ ply). The effects of recovery stresses are demonstrated in the experiments and well predicted using the shear-lag analysis and the nonlinear constitutive equation of SMA films.

In this study, characteristics of silver ink-jet printing were investigated under various substrate treatments such as substrate heating, hydrophobic coating, and ultraviolet(UV)/ozone soaking. Fluorocarbon(FC) film was spin-coated on the polyimide (PI) film substrate to obtain a hydrophobic surface. Although hydrophobicity of the FC film could reduce the diameter of the printed droplets, the singlet images printed on the FC film surface showed irregularities in the pattern size and the position of the printed droplet along with droplet merging phenomenon. The proposed UV/ozone soaking of the FC film improved the uniformity of the pattern size and the droplet position after printing and substrate heating was very effective way in preventing droplet merging. By heating of the substrate after UV/ozone soaking of the coated FC film, silver conductive lines of 78-116 ${\mu}m$ line were successfully printed at low substrate temperatures of $40^{\circ}C$.

본 연구는 막 분리 공정을 이용한 것으로 수소의 에너지원을 이용가능한 메탄을 정제하기 위해 바이오가스 중 이산화탄소와 메탄의 분리 및 황화수소의 제거하고자 한다. 막은 건/습식 상전이 법을 이용하여 중공사공 형태로 제조하고 표면 실리콘 코팅 후 모듈을 제조하였다. 제조된 중공사 막의 구조특성을 확인하기 위해 전자주사 현미경 관찰을 통하여 치밀한 표면과 망상구조의 비대칭 구조를 확인하였다. 압력과 온도가 증가함에 따라 이산화탄소의 투과도는 증가하였고, 이산화탄소와 메탄의 선택도 역시 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 혼합가스의 경우 압력 및 온도가 증가함에 따라 메탄 농도는 100%에 가까웠으며 이산화탄소와 황화수소의 제거효율도 증가하였다. Retentate 유량증가와 압력 온도감소에 따라 메탄 농도 감소 및 회수율이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Si Nanowire (NW) field effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated on hard Si and flexible polyimide (PI) substrates, and their electrical characteristics were compared. Si NWs used as channels were synthesized by electroless etching method at low temperature, and these NWs were refined using a centrifugation method to get the NWs to have an optimal diameter and length for FETs. The gate insulator was poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP), prepared using a spin-coating method on the PI substrate. Gold was used as electrodes whose gap was 8 ${\mu}m$. These gold electrodes were deposited using a thermal evaporator. Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the device were measured using a semiconductor analyzer, HP-4145B. The electrical properties of the device were characterized through hole mobility, $I_{on}/I_{off}$ ratio and threshold voltage. The results showed that the electrical properties of the TFTs on PVP were similar to those of TFTs on $SiO_2$. The bending durability of SiNWs TFTs on PI substrate was also studied with increasing bending times. The results showed that the electrical properties were maintained until the sample was folded about 500 times. But, after more than 1000 bending tests, drain current showed a rapid decrease due to the defects caused by the roughness of the surface of the Si NWs and mismatches of the Si NWs with electrodes.

분광광도계로 측정된 반사율 데이터를 활용하여 다층박막 각 층의 두께를 푸리에 변환 방법으로 결정하였다. 이를 위하여 이론적인 3층 다층박막 반사율 데이터를 생성하고 자체 작성한 Matlab 프로그램으로 델타함수의 피크 발생위치로부터 각 층의 두께를 결정하였으며, 박막의 광학적 두께가 730 nm 이상이 되는 경우 결정된 두께 오차는 1.0% 이하임을 알 수 있었다. 이 방법을 사용하여 바 코팅 방법으로 제작된 PI-(얇은 $SiO_2$)-PI 다층박막의 두께를 결정하고 그 결과를 SEM 측정결과와 비교하였다. 본 두께측정 방법은 각 층의 굴절률과 박막의 순서를 미리 인지하고 있어야 하는 단점이 있으나, 비파괴적인 방법으로 빠르게 다층 박막의 두께 분포를 결정할 수 있는 방법임을 확인하였다.

This paper presents organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) semiconductor and several polymeric dielectric materials of poly(vinyl phenol)(PVP), poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA), and polyimide(PI) by using soluble process. The fabricated OTFT's have inverted staggered structure using transmission line method(TLM) pattern. In order to evaluate the electrical characteristics of the OTFT, capacitance-voltage(C-V) and current-voltage(I-V) were measured. C-V graphs were measured at several frequencies of 100 Hz, 1 kHz, and 1 MHz and ID-VDS graphs according to $V_{GS}$. The current on/off ratio and threshold voltage with each of PVP, PVA, and PI based OTFTs were measured to $10^3$, and -0.36, -0.41, and -0.62 V. Also, the calculated mobility with each of PVP, PVA, and PI was 0.097, 0.095, and 0.028 $cm^{2}V^{-1}s^{-1}$, respectively. In the cases of PVP and PVA, the hole mobility of P3HT was in excellent agreement with the published value of 0.1 $cm^{2}V^{-1}s^{-1}$.

In order to fabricate adhesiveless 2-layer flexible copper clad laminate (FCCL) used for COF (chip on film) with high peel strength, polyimide (PI; Kapton-EN, $38\;{\mu}m$) surface was modified by reactive $O_2^+$ and $N_2O^+$ ion beam irradiation. 300 mm-long linear electron-Hall drift ion source was used for ion irradiation with ion current density (J) higher than $0.5\;mA/cm^2$ and energy lower than 200 eV. By vacuum web coating process, PI surface was modified by linear ion source and then 10-20 nm thick Ni-Cr and 200 nm thick Cu film were in-situ sputtered as a tie layer and seed layer, respectively. Above this sputtered layer, another $8-9{\mu}m$ thick Cu layer was grown by electroplating and subsequently acid and base resistance and thermal stability were tested for examining the change of peel strength. Peel strength for the FCCLs treated by both $O_2^+$ and $N_2O^+$ ion irradiation showed similar magnitudes and increased as the thickness of tie layer increased. FCCL with Cu (200 nm)/Ni-Cr (20 nm)/PI structure irradiated with $N_2O^+$ at $1{\times}10^{16}/cm^2$ ion fluence was proved to have a strong peel strength of 0.73 kgf/cm for as-received and 0.34 kgf/cm after thermal test.

In general, polyimides (PIs) are used in liquid crystal displays (LCDs) as alignment layer of liquid crystals (LCs). Up to date, the rubbing alignment technique has been widely used to align liquid crystals on the PI surface, which is suitable for mass-production of LCDs because of its simple process and high productivity. However, this method has some disadvantages. Rubbed PI surfaces include the debris left by the cloth and the generation of electrostatic charges during rubbing process. Therefore, rubbing-free techniques for LC alignment are strongly required in LCD technology. In this experiment, PI was uniformly coated on indium-tin-oxide electrode substrates to form LC alignment layers using a spin-coating method and the PI layers were subsequently imidized at 433 K for 1 h. The thickness of the PI layer was set at 50 nm. The LC alignment layer surfaces were exposed to an $Ar^+$ ion-beam under various ion-beam energies. The antiparallel cells and twisted-nematic (TN) cells for the measurement of pretile angle and electro-optical characteristics were fabricated with the cell gap of 60 and $5\;{\mu}m$, respectively. The LC cells were filled with nematic LC (NLC, MJ001929, Merck) and were assembled. The NLC alignment capability on ion-beam-treated PI was observed using photomicroscope and the pretilt angle of the NLC was measured by the crystal-rotation method at room temperature. Voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time characteristics of the ion-beam irradiated TN cell were measured by a LCD evaluation system.
