Graphene is an attractive material for various device applications due to great electrical properties and chemical properties. However, lack of band gap is significant hurdle of graphene for future electrical device applications. In the past few years, several methods have been attempted to open and tune a band gap of graphene. For example, researchers try to fabricate graphene nanoribbon (GNR) using various templates or unzip the carbon nanotubes itself. However, these methods generate small driving currents or transconductances because of the large amount of scattering source at edge of GNRs. At 2009, Bai et al. introduced graphene nanomesh (GNM) structures which can open the band gap of large area graphene at room temperature with high current. However, this method is complex and only small area is possible. For practical applications, it needs more simple and large scale process. Herein, we introduce a photosensitive graphene device fabrication using CdSe QD coated nano-porous graphene (NPG). In our experiment, NPG was fabricated by thin film anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) film as an etching mask. First of all, we transfer the AAO on the graphene. And then, we etch the graphene using O2 reactive ion etching (RIE). Finally, we fabricate graphene device thorough photolithography process. We can control the length of NPG neckwidth from AAO pore widening time and RIE etching time. And we can increase size of NPG as large as 2 $cm^2$. Thin CdSe QD layer was deposited by spin coatingprocess. We carried out NPG structure by using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). And device measurements were done by Keithley 4200 SCS with 532 nm laser beam (5 mW) irradiation.

절단 정반에 드로스가 과도하게 부착되면 강판의 수평 레벨에 차이가 발생하게 되어 절단 정도가 저하되며 절단 과정에서 발생하는 비산먼지, 분진, 흄 등의 집진 효율이 저하되어 작업 환경이 악화된다. 또한, 절단 과정에서 발생하는 철 용융물들이 정반 위로 비산되어 장비 및 제품의 손상이 발생할 수도 있다. 본 연구에서는 절단 정반에 부착되는 드로스의 제어를 통해 절단 정도 향상, 작업 환경 개선, 장비와 제품의 손상 방지, 절단 정반의 잦은 교체 비용 및 인력과 장비의 유휴시간 절감 등 생산성 향상에 기여하고자 하였다. 연구 방법으로는 우선, 강판 절단 시 발생하는 철 용융물로 인한 드로스가 정반에 부착되는 특성을 파악하기 위해 일련의 절단 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과를 토대로 절단 정반에 부착된 드로스를 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 장비의 개념 설계를 수행하고 사전 테스트를 통해 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 최종적으로, 상세 설계를 통해 드로스 제거 시스템 및 운용 알고리즘을 개발하였으며 대형 플라즈마 아크 절단 장비에 설치 및 장기간의 현장 테스트를 통해 그 유용성을 확인하였다.

이방성 자기저항효과(anisotropic magnetoresistance : AMR)는 단층 자성박막으로 구성되므로 경제성 있게 박막화 시켜서 소형화가 가능하다. 기존의 급속응고법으로 생산된 리본형 MCo(M=Cu, Ag) 소자가 경제적으로 공업적 목적을 달성하였으나, 리본형 특유의 두께와 가공성이 부족하여 소형 소자에 함께 집적하기 곤란한 단점이 있었다. 새로운 박막형을 쓰면 추가 열처리 없이 기존의 리본형 소자와 비교하여 박막상태로 적절한 AMR 특성이 나오는지와 최적 AMR을 얻기 위한 Co의 조성을 아는 것이 중요하다. 열증착기를 써서 100nm의 $Cu_{1-x}Co_x$와 $Ag_{1-x}$ 박막을 Co의 조성을 $10{\sim}70wt%$로 달리하며 제작하여 이때의 자기적 특성을 확인하였다. CuCo는 40% Co에 0.5T에서 1.4%, AgCo는 30% Co에 2.6%의 MR비를 얻었고 이는 리본형 소자보다는 표면 산란 효과에 의해 MR비는 작지만 표면산화막 없이 직접 다른 소자공정과 함께 진행할 수 있는 장점이 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 콘크리트 재료 및 구조물의 균열 특성 평가에 활용되고 있는 확산초음파 기법의 적용 가능성을 검토하는데 있다. 이를 위한 첫 단계로 외부 환경에 따라 변화하는 콘크리트의 수분 함유량 변화를 묘사하여, 확산초음파 파라미터와 콘크리트 수분 함유량 사이의 상관관계 분석을 수행하였다. 실험실 환경에서 완전 건조된 실험체를 수중에서 포화시켜가며 콘크리트 함수율의 차이를 묘사하였으며, 콘크리트 내부에서 초음파의 산란 현상이 충분히 발생하는 500 kHz 주파수 대역대의 신호를 가진 및 분석하여 확산초음파 파라미터인 초음파 확산계수와 초음파 에너지 소산계수를 산정하였다. 콘크리트의 수분 함유량은 확산초음파 실험 시 실험체의 무게 변화를 통해 추정하였으며, 수분 함유량 증가에 따라 실험체에서 무게가 약 2.5 % 가량 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 콘크리트 실험체의 포화정도에 따라 초음파 확산계수는 지속적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나, 변화율은 확산초음파 기법의 계측 오차 범위 내에 있었다. 반면에, 초음파 에너지 소산계수는 완전 포화된 콘크리트에서 완전 건조된 콘크리트 대비 약 120 % 증가하여, 수분함유량에 대해 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 추후 확산초음파 기법을 활용하여 콘크리트 재료 및 구조물의 균열 특성 평가 시 함수율에 대한 고려가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Since the organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been widely investigated as next-generation displays, it has been successfully commercialized as a flexible and rollable display. However, there is still wide room and demand to improve the device characteristics such as power efficiency and lifetime. To solve this issue, there has been a wide research effort, and among them, the internal and the external light extraction techniques have been attracted in this research field by its fascinating characteristic of material independence. In this study, a micro-nano composite structured external light extraction layer was demonstrated. A reactive ion etching (RIE) process was performed on the surfaces of hexagonally packed hemisphere micro-lens array (MLA) and randomly distributed sphere diffusing films to form micro-nano composite structures. Random nanostructures of different sizes were fabricated by controlling the processing time of the O₂ / CHF₃ plasma. The fabricated device using a micro-nano composite external light extraction layer showed 1.38X improved external quantum efficiency compared to the reference device. The results prove that the external light extraction efficiency is improved by applying the micro-nano composite structure on conventional MLA fabricated through a simple process.

For white light emitting diode (LED) applications, it has been reported that Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ (YAG:Ce) in nano-sized phosphor performs better than it does in micro-sized particles. This is because nano-sized YAG:Ce can reduce internal light scattering when coated onto a blue LED surface. Recently, there have been many reports on the synthesis of nano-sized YAG particles using bottom-up method, such as co-precipitation method, sol-gel process, hydrothermal method, solvothermal method, and glycothermal method. However, there has been no report using top-down method. Top-down method has advantages than bottom-up method, such as large scale production and easy control of doping concentration and particle size. Therefore, in this study, nano-sized YAG:Ce phosphors were synthesized by a high energy beads milling process with varying beads size, milling time and milling steps. The beads milling process was performed by Laboratory Mill MINICER with ZrO2 beads. The phase identity and morphology of nano-sized YAG:Ce were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), respectively. By controlling beads size, milling time and milling steps, we synthesized a size-tunable and uniform nano-sized YAG:Ce phosphors which average diameters were 100, 85 and 40 nm, respectively. After milling, there was no impurity and all of the peaks were in good agreement with YAG (JCPDS No. 33-0040). Luminescence and quantum efficiency (QE) of nano-sized YAG:Ce phosphors were measured by fluorescence spectrometer and QE measuring instrument, respectively. The synthesized YAG:Ce absorbed light efficiently in the visible region of 400-500 nm, and showed single broadband emission peaked at 550 nm with 50% of QE. As a result, by considering above results, high energy beads milling process could be a facile and reproducible synthesis method for nano-sized YAG:Ce phosphors.

Graphene, two dimensional single layer of carbon atoms, has tremendous attention due to its superior property such as high electron mobility, high thermal conductivity and optical transparency. Especially, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene has been used as a promising material for high quality and large-scale graphene film. Unfortunately, although CVD-grown graphene has strong advantages, application of the CVD-grown graphene is limited due to ineffective transfer process that delivers the graphene onto a desired substrate by using polymer support layer such as PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate). The transferred CVD-grown graphene has serious drawback due to remaining polymeric residues generated during transfer process, which induces the poor physical and electrical characteristics by a p-doping effect and impurity scattering. To solve such issue incurred during polymer transfer process of CVD-grown graphene, various approaches including thermal annealing, chemical cleaning, mechanical cleaning have been tried but were not successful in getting rid of polymeric residues. On the other hand, lithographical patterning of graphene is an essential step in any form of microelectronic processing and most of conventional lithographic techniques employ photoresist for the definition of graphene patterns on substrates. But, application of photoresist is undesirable because of the presence of residual polymers that contaminate the graphene surface consistent with the effects generated during transfer process. Therefore, in order to fully utilize the excellent properties of CVD-grown graphene, new approach of transfer and patterning techniques which can avoid polymeric residue problem needs to be developed. In this work, we carried out transfer and patterning process simultaneously with no polymeric residue by using a metal etch mask. The patterned thin gold layer was deposited on CVD-grown graphene instead of photoresists in order to make much cleaner and smoother surface and then transferred onto a desired substrate with PMMA, which does not directly contact with graphene surface. We compare the surface properties and patterning morphology of graphene by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM) and Raman spectroscopy. Comparison with the effect of residual polymer and metal on performance of graphene FET will be discussed.

Soybean seeds contain many biologically active secondary metabolites, such as proteins, saponins, isoflavones, phytic acids, trypsin inhibitors and phytosterols. Among them, saponins in soybeans have attracted considerable interest because of their health benefits. Soyasaponin A and B are the most abundant types of saponins found in soybeans along with soyasapogenol (aglycone), which is a precursor of soyasaponin. The main purpose of this experiment was to determine the concentration of soyasapogenol in soybean seeds and sprouts as a function of seed size, usage, seed coat color and seed cotyledon color. The 79 Korean soybean varieties were cultivated at Yesan of Chungnam in 2006 for the analysis of soyasapogenol using HPLC with Evaporative Light Scattering Detection (ELSD). The total average concentration of soyasapogenol was $1313.52{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ in soybean seeds and $1377.22{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ in soybean sprouts. Soybean sprouts were about 5% higher than soybean seeds in average total soyasapogenol concentration. In the process of sprouting, the average soyasapogenol A content decreased by approximately 1.6%, but soyasapogenol B and total soyasapogenol increased by 8.31% and 4.88%, based on the content of soybean seeds. When classified according to the size of seeds, the total soyasapogenol concentration of soybean seeds were not significantly different (p<0.05) On average, small soybean seeds were increased by as much as $103.14{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ in sprouting process. As a function of the use of the seeds, The total soyasapogenol in soybean seeds were significantly different (p<0.05). While, the soybean sprouts were not significant different (p<0.05). Altogether, sprout soybean seeds show the greatest change in content during the germination process. When seeds with different coat colors were compared, the total soyasapogenol concentration of soybean with yellow seed coats ($1357.30\mu g\;g^{1}$) was slightly higher than that of soybean with black ($1260.30{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) or brown ($1263.62{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$) seed coats. For the color of the cotyledon, the total soyasapogenol concentration was significantly increased in green cotyledon during the germination and seedling process. The results of this study suggest the functional characteristics of soybeans through quantitative analysis of soyasapogenol. In addition, the concentration of soyasapogenol exhibited a change during the germination process, which was evaluated by the nutritional value of the soybean sprouts.
