Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are porous crystalline polymers in which organic units are linked by covalent bonds and have a regular arrangement at the atomic level. Recently, the COFs have been much attention in bio-medical area such as bio-imaging, drug delivery, and therapeutics. These 2D nanoparticles are proving their value in nanomedicine due to their large surface area, functionalization through functional groups exposed on the surface, chemical stability due to covalent bonding, and high biocompatibility. The high ω-electron density and crystallinity of COFs makes it a promising candidate for bioimaging probes, and its porosity and large surface area make it possible to be utilized as a drug delivery vehicle. However, the low dispersibility in water, the cytotoxicity problems of COFs are still challenged to be solved in the future. In this regard, several efforts that increase the degree of dispersion through functionalization on the surface of COFs for the application to the biomedical field have been reported. In this review, we would like to describe the advantages and limitations of COFs for bio-imaging and anti-cancer treatment.

Some living thingsuse micro- or nano- structures for living in nature. Scientists and engineers made efforts to mimic them, and they succeeded in making new types of applications. They used 'Namib desert beetle' to self-filling device by moisture harvesting and 'lotus leaf' to self-cleaning device by water repelling. 'Namib desert beetle' and lotus leaf have micro-patterns on their surface, which consists of hydrophobic or hydrophilic materials [1]. Moreover, micro-patterns on the surface make self-filling or self-cleaning property enhanced because of the surface roughness. Surface roughness enhances wettability [2]. Micro-pattern is a significant factor to make the surface be functional, so we want to make new types of functional surface by micro-patterning. In this work,we make several functional micro-patterns (radial, line, and dot arrays) using maskless lithography and analyze the characteristics of each micro-pattern. In order to analyze and understand surface characteristics, micro-patterns with varying sizes are investigated. All experiments are proceeded on mr-DWL5 photo resists coated on silicon wafers in same condition. All the experiments have demonstrated good performances about hydrophobic or hydrophilic property corresponding to their material and structural combinations. In radial micro-pattern, although the surface is flat, water drops on hydrophilic radial pattern can be convergent to a middle point and water drops on hydrophobic radial pattern can be divergent from the middle point. In line array micro-pattern, water drops can roll off along only one direction in parallel with the line arrays. Such phenomena might be mainly caused by the local change of surface roughness. From these results, controlling the movement and direction of water drops is made feasible without introducing a slope, which can potentially be used for new types of applications.

The surface of magnetite ($Fe_{3}O_{4}$) nanoparticles prepared by coprecipitation method was modified by carboxylic acid group of poly(3-thiophenacetic acid (3TA)) and meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). Then the lysozyme protein was immobilized on the carboxylic acid group of the modification of the magnetite nanoparticles. The magnetite nanoparticles are spherical and the particle size is approximately 10 nm. We measured quantitative dispersion state by dispersion stability analyzer for each $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ nanoparticles with and without surface modification. The concentration of lysozyme on the modified magnetite nanoparticles was also investigated by a UV-Vis spectrometer and compared to that of magnetite nanoparticles without surface modification. The functionalized magnetite particles had higher enzymatic capacity and dispersion stability than non-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles.

Monmorillonite 클레이를 물을 분산제로 이용하여 3-aminopropyltriethoxy 실란 기능화를 실시하였다. 실란의 그라프트 여부는 FT-IR을 이용하여 정성분석하였다. 실란의 농도가 증가함에 따라 흡착/삽입 비가 감소함을 알 수 있었다. X-ray를 이용하여 평균 d-간격을 측정한 결과 초기에는 실란농도가 증가하다 다소 감소하였다. 기능화 공정온도의 영향을 살펴본 결과 온도가 증가함에 따라 화학적인 그라프트가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

나노과학과 나노기술의 발전에 따라 선택적 패턴 성장을 위한 기술이 주목을 받고 있다. 실리카(Silica) 나노입자는 바이오 라벨링, 바이오 이미징 및 바이오 센싱에 사용되고 있는 유망한 나노소재이다. 본 연구에서는 실리카 나노입자를 수정된 스토버 방법(Stöber Method)인 졸겔(Sol-Gel) 공정으로 합성하였다. 또한 기판의 표면을 미세접촉프린팅 기술로 발수 처리하여 실리카 나노입자를 선택적으로 패턴 성장시켰다. 합성된 실리카 나노입자의 크기와 선택적으로 패턴 성장된 실리카 나노입자의 표면형상을 전계방출 주사전자현미경(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, FE-SEM)으로 조사하였고, 기판의 표면 기능화에 따른 기판의 접촉각 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 OTS 용액으로 발수 처리된 기판에서는 실리카 나노입자를 스핀 코팅하였을 때, 실리카 나노입자를 관찰할 수 없었으나, KOH 용액으로 친수 처리된 기판에서는 실리카 나노입자가 잘 코팅되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 미세접촉프린팅 기술로 발수 처리한 기판영역 외에서만 실리카 나노입자가 선택적으로 패턴 성장하는 것을 FE-SEM으로 확인하였다. 이러한 실리카 나노입자의 패턴성장 특성을 염료가 도핑 된 실리카 나노입자에 적용한다면, 실리카 나노입자의 패턴 성장 기술은 바이오 이미징 및 바이오 센싱 분야에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

We present a method of surface functionalization of a single layer graphene for linking and detecting MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell. The methodology is done by utilizing 1-pyrenebutanoic acid and succinimidyl ester for immobiling CD44 antibodies. This work shows that the single layer graphene is an efficient fixing substance to capture the MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell, selectively. The immobilization method of the cancer cell on the graphene layer will be an effective cell counting system. Moreover usage of the linking with non-covalent bonding is expected to develope a sensor scheme of electrical cell-detecting diagnosis system.

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) have attracted much attention due to clean, efficient and environmental-friendly generation of electricity for next-generation energy conversion devices. Recently, many studies have been reported on improving the performance of SOFC electrodes and electrolytes by applying atomic layer deposition (ALD) process, which has advantages of excellent film quality and conformality, and precise control of film thickness by utilizing its unique self-limiting surface reaction. ALD process with these advantages has been shown to provide functional ceramic interfaces for SOFC electrodes and electrolytes. In this article, recent examples of successful functionalization and stabilization on SOFC electrodes and electrolytes by the application of ALD process for realizing high performance SOFC cells are reported.

In this work, we report the use of caffeine as an alternative source of nitrogen to successfully dope graphene (quaternary 400.6 eV and pyridinic at 398 eV according XPS), as well as the growth of silver nanowires (in-situ) in the surface of nitrogen doped graphene (NG) sheets. We used the improved graphene oxide method (IGO), chemical reduction of graphene oxide (GOx), and impregnation with caffeine as source of nitrogen for doping and subsequently, silver nanowires (NW) grow in the surface by the reduction of silver salts in the presence of NG, achieving a numerous of growth of NW in the graphene sheets. As supporting experimental evidence, the samples were analyzed using conventional characterization techniques: SEM-EDX, XRD, FT-IR, micro RAMAN, TEM, and XPS.

Amineterminated, ethylenediamine core polyamidoamine starburst dendrimers of generation 2 (G2), generation 4 (G4) and generation 6 (G6) have been successfully surface-modified via an amide coupling reaction with 4-ethyl, 4'-(3-propionic) bipyridinium cation and the electrochemical behavior of the resulting dendrimers were investigated in aqueous potassium chloride electrolyte solutions. The 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide-mediated reaction resulted in 25-39% end-group functionalization. The water-soluble 4-ethyl, 4'-(3-propylamide) bipyridinium dibromide dendrimers (G2-V2+, G4-V2+ and G6-V2+) were characterized by $^1H$ NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopic methods. The cyclic voltammetric and chronoamperometric experiments were performed to determine the diffusion coefficient and the number of electrons transferred in the process of the first reduction of the viologen-functionalized dendrimers. Adsorption of viologen-functionalized dendrimers at electrode surface was evidenced in the voltammograms. Experimentally determined diffusion coefficients were in good agreement with the values expected from the Stokes-Einstein relation, while the number of electrons transferred concurred with the extent of functionalization determined by $^1H$ NMR and UV-Vis spectra.
