  • Organic monolayers were fabricated onto Au(l l l) substrate by self-assembly method using dipyridinium. Also, organic single molecule in the organic monolayers was selected to measure the current-voltage (I-V) curves by using the ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM). The organic molecule used in the experiment was dipyridinium dithioacetate, which contains thiol functional group and can be self-assembled easily onto Au(l l l) substrate. The concentration of dipyridinium dithioacetate for self-assembly procedure was I [mM/L]. To confirm the formation of self-assembled mono layers (SAMs), the differences of thickness of the self-assembled organic monolayers were observed by using an ellipsometer, and the morphology and I-V curves of the SAMs were investigated by using UHV-STM. The applied voltages were from -2 [V] to +2 [V], temperature was 300 [K]. The vacuum for measuring current of the organic single molecule was 6 $\times$ 10$^{-8}$ [Torr]. As a result, properties of the negative differential resistance (NDR) in constant voltage were found.

  • We have used the random fluidic self-assembly (RFSA) technique based on the chip pattern of hydrophobic self-assembly layers to assemble microfabricated particles onto the chip pattern. Immobilization of DNA, fabrication of the particles and the chip pattern, arrangement of the particles on the chip pattern, and recognition of each using DNA fluorescence measurement were carried out. Establishing the walls, the arrangement stability of the particles was improved. Each DNA is able to distinguish by using the lithography process on the particles. Advantages of this method are process simplicity, wide applicability and stability. It is thought that this method can be applicable as a new fabrication technology to develop a minute integration type biosensor microarray.

  • In case of visual sensing systems with multiple mirrors, systematic errors need to be reduced by the system calibration and the mirror position adjustment in order to enhance system measurement accuracy. In this paper, a self calibration method is presented for a visual sensing system designed to measure the three-dimensional information in deformable peg-in-hole tasks. It is composed of a CCD camera and a series of mirrors including two pyramidal mirrors. By using an image of the inner pyramidal mirror taken by the system, the error parameters of the inner pyramidal mirror could be calibrated or adjusted. Also the influence of the plane mirrors is investigated.

  • This paper presents a fabrication method of microcapsules encapsulating fluorescent nanoparticles sensitive to an organic liquid, which is potentially applicable to the encapsulation of protein, cell and drug. It uses the supra-molecular self-assembly of a block copolymer at the interface of the stable and controllable droplets of water suspended with fluorescent nanoparticles and the polymer solved organic. The size and uniformity of the microcapsules were examined for the various polymer concentrations by using SEM image analysis. The maximum standard deviation of the produced microcapsules of less than 3.5% was obtained from the microcapsules produced from the same conditions. The inclusion of fluorescent nanoparticles was visualized in the fluorescence microscope and by using TEM image. It is shown that this fabrication method can provide the uniform size microcapsules with a higher inclusion.

  • The electrostatic layer-by-layer technique provides a convenient way to control the construction of ultrathin films at nano-scale ranges and can be easily obtained. It can be also applicable to fiber substrate with dye compounds. We have fabricated multilayer dye films using diazonium resin and three couplers, which are prepared by self-assembly approach. This method is based on layer-by-layer deposition using electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Beside, the diazo coupling reaction proceeded to form azo dye layer on the PET fibers the same time. The corresponding results of the multilayer films have been discussed on the level of color strength (K/S).

  • Hexagonal barium ferrite ($BaFe_{12}O_{19}$) nano-particles have been successfully fabricated by spraypylorysis process. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ precursor solutions were synthesized by self-assembly 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 of Fe ions to Ba-DEA complex and then fabricated $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders by spray-pyrolysis process at the temperature range of $800{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$. The molar ratio of Ba/DEA and heat-treatment temperatures 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 $900^{\circ}C$ showed the coercive forces (iHc) of 4.2 kOe with average crystal size of about 100 nm.

  • $ZrO_2/PSS$ thin film with a high refractive index was fabricated on a glass substrate by a layer-by-layer self-assembly method. The surface morphology and thickness of the fabricated $ZrO_2/PSS$ thin films were measured as a function of the number of $(ZrO_2/PSS)n$. As the number of $(ZrO_2/PSS)n$ increased from n = 5 to n = 20, RMS roughness decreased from 29.01 nm to 8.368 nm. The $ZrO_2$ thin films exhibited high transmittance of 85% or more; and the 15-bilayer thin film exhibited the highest transmittance among the samples. The transmittance of the fabricated $(ZrO_2/PSS)_{15}$ thin film was ca. 90.8% in the visible range. The refractive index of the glass substrate coated by a $(ZrO_2/PSS)_{15}$ thin film with a thickness of 160 nm increased from ca. 1.52 to 1.74 at the 632 nm wavelength.

  • Alternating multilayer films of a cationic bipolar amphiphile and an anionic polyelectrolyte were prepared by a self-assembly method based on electrostatic attraction between opposite charges. The bipolar amphiphile contains an azobenzene unit in order to allow for a trans-cis photoisomerization to take place. Optical birefringence or dichroism was induced in the self-assembled film upon linearly polarized light irradiation. This dichroism could be reversibly written and erased by irradiation with light of an appropriate wavelength.

  • A monolayer assembly of anthracene-viologen linked thiol ($AMVC_{8}SH$) was fabricated on a gold electrode by self-assembly method. Structural property of the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) was carried out by optical and electrochemical method. Firstly, we investigated PL spectrum and UV/visible absorption for the optical properties in solution state. Secondly, we determined the characteristics of charge transfer in different electrolyte solutions by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). From the data, the PL spectrum and UV/visible absorption were observed and the well-defined shape peaks were nearly equal charges during redox reactions and existed to an excellent linear relationship between the scan rates and existed to currents. The mass change was determined during redox reaction. The mass change behavior of SAMs was not only governed by the mobility of the ion in the viologen but the valence of the ion in the electrolyte solution.
