  • A typically designed 'Peptide Lego' has two distinct surfaces: a hydrophilic side that contains the complete charge distribution and a hydrophobic side. In this article, we describe the fabrication of a unique lego-type peptide with the AEAEYAKAK sequence. The novel peptide with double amphiphilic surfaces is different from typical peptides due to special arrangement of the residues. The results of CD, FT-IR, AFM and DLS demonstrate that the peptide with the random coil characteristic was able to form stable nanostructures that were mediated by non-covalent interactions in an aqueous solution. The data further indicated that despite its different structure, the peptide was able to undergo self-assembly similar to a typical peptide. In addition, the use of hydrophobic pyrene as a model allowed the peptide to provide a new type of potential nanomaterial for drug delivery. These efforts collectively open up a new direction in the fabrication of nanomaterials that are more perfect and versatile.

  • Resveratrol was incorporated into various combinations of single- and double-layer nanoemulsions, prepared by self-assembly emulsification and complex coacervation with chitosan, alginate, and ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin, respectively. Resveratrol nanoemulsions were composed of medium-chain trigacylglycerols (MCTs), $Tween^{(R)}$ 80, water, chitosan, alginate, and ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin. The corresponding mixtures were formulated for the purpose of being used as a nutraceutical delivery system. Resveratrol nanoemulsions were obtained with particle sizes of 10-800 nm, with the size variation dependent on the emulsification parameters including the ratio of aqueous phase and surfactant ratio. Resveratrol nanoemulsions were characterized by evaluating particle size, zeta-potential value, stability, and release rate. There were no significant changes in particle size and zeta-potential value of resveratrol nanoemulsions during storage for 28 days at $25^{\circ}C$. The stability of resveratrol in the double-layer nanoemulsions complexed with chitosan or ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin was higher, compared with the single-layer nanoemulsions.

  • Diphenyl amine (DPA) was polymerized inside the channels of the mesoporous silica (MCM-41). MCM-41 (C) and MCM-41 (D) were prepared with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB), respectively and used as hosts. Initially, the self assembly of DPA inside the pores of MCM-41 was made in ${\beta}$-naphthalene sulfonic acid (NSA) medium and subsequently poly (diphenylamine), PDPA was formed by oxidative polymerization. $N_2$ adsorption-desorption measurements of PDPA loaded MCM-41 (C) and MCM-41 (D) show variations in pore volume and surface area between them. A tubular form of poly (diphenylamine), PDPA was envisaged to form in the pores of MCM-41 and supported by high resolution transmission microscopy. The presence of PDPA inside the channel of MCM-41 was further confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction.

  • This paper presents an intelligent robotic control method for chamferless parts mating by integrating fuzzy control and neural network. The successful assembly task requires an extremely high position accuracy and a good knowledge of mating parts. However, conventional assembly method alone makes it difficult to achieve satisfactory assembly performance because of the complexity and the uncertainties of the process and its environments such as not only the limitation of the devices performing the assembly but also imperfect knowledge of the parts being assembled. To cope with these problems, an intelligent robotic assembly method is proposed, which is composed of fuzzy controller and learning mechanism based upon neural net. In this method, fuzzy controller copes with the complexity and the uncertainties of the assembly process, while neural network enhances the assembly scheme so as to learn fuzzy rules from experience and adapt to changes in environment of uncertainty and imprecision. The performance of the proposed assembly scheme is evaluted through a series of experiments using SCARA robot. The results show that the proposed control method can be effectively applied to chamferless precision parts mating.

  • Polystyrene beads (PS beads) with narrow size distribution were synthesized, and their diameter was controlled from 1.2 to $5{\mu}m$ by varying the injection rate of a styrene solution containing initiator and the concentration of reactant, such as initiator and capping material. The diameter of the PS beads increased with increasing in the injection rates and the initiator concentration or decreasing the capping material concentration. Then, we used the PS beads as building block, and organized them into a hexagonally close-packed monolayer on substrate with template-assisted manual assembly. We showed perfect hexagonally close-packed organization of the PS beads with various sizes in large-scale area. And we demonstrated the superiority of the dry manual assembly over the wet self-assembly in terms of simplicity, speed, perfect ordering, and large scale.

  • The camera cellular phone has a large portion of cellular phone market in recent year. The variety of a customer demand makes a fast model change and the spatial resolution is changed from VGA to multi-mega pixel. The 1.3 mega pixel (MP) camera cellular phone was first released into the Korean market in October 2003. The major cellular phone companies released a 2MP camera cellular phone that supports zoom function and a 2MP camera cellular phone is settled down with the Korea cellular phone market. It makes a keen competition in price and demands automation for phone camera module. There is an increasing requirement for the automatic assembly to correspond to a fast model change. The hard automation techniques that rely on dedicated manufacturing system are too inflexible to meet this requirement. Therefore in this study, this system is designed with the flexibility concept in order to cope with phone camera module change. The system has a same platform that has X-Y-Z motion or X-Z motion with ${\mu}m$order accuracy. It has a special gripper according to the type of a component to be put together. If the camera model changes, the gripper may be updated to fit for the camera module. The controller of this system acquires the data sets that have the information about the assembly part by the tray. This information is obtained ahead of an inspection step. The controller excludes an inferior part to be assembled by using this information to diminish the inferior goods. The assembly jig used in this system has a function of self adjustment that reduces the tact time and also diminish the inferior goods. Finally, the intelligent assembly system for phone camera module will be designed to get a flexibility to meet model change and a high productivity with a high reliability.

  • 본 연구에서는 단일 벽(Single-wall) 구조를 갖는 나노크기의 속이 빈(hollow) 볼(Ball)형(NBs; Nano-balls), 짧은 길이 튜브(S-NTs; Short-fiber Nano-tubes)형 및 긴 길이 튜브(L-NTs; Long-fiber Nano-tubes) 물질을 동일한 조성 Al/Ge=1.33을 갖는 Aluminogermanate(ALGE) Precursor 최초 혼합용액의 단순한 pH 조절 과정에서 자기조합(Self-assembly)을 통해 성공적으로 합성하였다. 먼저 pH=13으로의 염기성화(Na/Al=28~30) 및 최종 pH=9 조건에서 5 nm의 균질한 크기를 갖으며, 화학조성인 Al/Ge=1.5~1.6인 속이 빈 구조의 NBs가 합성되었다. pH=13으로의 염기성화 및 최종 pH=4 조건에서는 3.3 nm 지름, 길이 15~20 nm, Al/Ge=2.6~2.8의 S-NTs가 합성되었다. 그러나 pH=9로 염기성화(Na/Al=3.8) 시킨 후 최종 pH=4조건에서는 나노-튜브의 길이가 100 nm 이상인 L-NTs가 처음으로 합성되었다. 이러한 결과는 ALGE Precursor로부터 -Ge-OH 표면에서의 $H^+$-dissociation 정도 차이, 즉, $Na^+$ 양 및 최종 pH 조건을 달리함으로써 의도하는 형태의 ALGE 나노물질 유도가 가능함을 시사한다.

  • Synthetic zinc chlorins possessing a hydrophylic polyoxyethylene chain at the 17 -position were prepared. An amphiphilic zinc chlorin possessing a single chIorin moiety showed absorption maxima at 675 nm in an aqueous medium, indicating that the zinc chIorin did not form large aggregates but a dimeric structure. In contrast, amphiphilic zinc chlorin dyads in which two zinc chlorin moieties were connected with a hydrophilic polyoxyethylene linkage showed red-shifted absorption band around 720-740 nm in an aqueous medium. The result indicated that the amphiphilic zinc chlorin dyad self-aggregated to form chlorosome-like oligomer.

  • The synthesis of dendritic dipeptides $(4-3,4-3,5)12G2-CH_{2}-Boc-_{L}-Tyr-X-OMe\;where\;X\;=\;Gly,\;_{L}-Val,\;_{L}-Leu,\;_{L}-Ile,\;_{L}-Phe$, and L-Pro will be discussed. Their self-assembly in bulk and in solution and the structural and retrostructural analysis of their periodic assemblies will be compared to that of the previously reported and currently reinvestigated dendritic dipeptide with $X=_{L}-Ala$. All dendritic dipeptides containing as X nonpolar ${\alpha}-amino$ acids self-assemble into helical porous columns. The principles via which the aliphatic and aromatic substituents of X program the structure of the helical pores indicate synthetic pathways to helical pores with bioinspired functions based on artificial nonpolar ${\alpha}-amino$ acids will be discussed.
