  • The thermal transitions of a nylon 6/layered silicate nanocomposite were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The drawn film of the nylon 6/layered silicate nanocomposite typically showed three endotherms in the DSC thermogram; a very broad endotherm at $\sim120^{\circ}C(T_{1})$, a double-melting endotherm at $\sim215^{\circ}C(T_{2})$, and a high temperature endotherm at $\sim240^{\circ}C(T_{3})$. The drawn film of the nylon 6/ layered silicate nanocomposite was comprised of a mixture of the $\alpha and \gamma$ forms, with $the \alpha form$ being generated by drawing the pressed film having $the \gamma form$. The melting and crystallization of the crystals were observed at the above thermal transitions during the heating experiment performed at the Pohang X-ray synchrotron radiation source (4C2). The newly generated form was meta-stable and melted $at {\sim}T_{1}$. The double-melting $at {\sim}T_{2}$ was due to the exothermic crystallization of $the \alpha form$ during the main endothermic melting of $the \gamma form$. $The \alpha form$ crystallized $at {\sim}T_{2}$ and melted $at {\sim}T_{3}$.

  • This paper reviews NTT Laboratories' research and development of x-ray lithography during the last ten years since the application of synchrotron orbital radiation(SOR). First, the historical background of x-ray lithograhpy research, NTT's research programs on synchrotron x-ray lithography(SOR lithography), and the current status of NTT's SOR lithography system are overviewed. Then, the key elements of SOR lithography system are reviewed, including the electron storage ring, the x-ray stepper, and the x-ray mask. Finally the appilcation of SOR lithography technology to device fabrication is reported.

  • In this study, we aim to obtain the fundamental data needed for the objective analysis and bio-mimetics of leeches, using x-ray imaging with radiation that allows 3D analysis of the detailed anatomic structures of leeches. It was confirmed that through using radiation, detailed images of leeches can be obtained, allowing 3D analysis of leeches' anatomical structures. Also, since the data obtained through the radiation allows you to observe the micro-structure, it can serve as a good resource for component analysis, as well as physiological and functional research. More, it is hoped to contribute to further research in the areas of bio-mimetics using leeches.

  • The electrons, which are accelerated to nearly light speed from LINAC(Linear Accelerator), put into Storage Ring. And this electrons circulate in an ultra high vacuum chamber and their orbit is controlled by the electromagnets such as DIPOLE, QUADRUPOLE, SEXTUPOLE & CORRECTION MAGNET. Among them, the dipole magnet is to bend the electron and to produce Synchrotron Radiation(S.R). This paper describes the key point during manufacturing of this magnet, and introduce the field measurement results of the HEECO's successful prototype.

  • The orientation of the constituent molecules in organic thin film devices can affect significantly their performance due to the highly anisotropic nature of ${\pi}$-conjugated molecules. We report here an angle dependent x-ray absorption study of the control of such molecular orientation using well-ordered interlayers for the case of a bilayer heterojunction of chloroaluminum phthalocyanine (ClAlPc) and C60. Furthermore, the orientation-dependent energy level alignment of the same bilayer heterojunction has been measured in detail using synchrotron radiation-excited photoelectron spectroscopy. Regardless of the orientation of the organic interlayer, we find that the subsequent ClAlPc tilt angle improves the ${\pi}-{\pi}$ interaction at the interface, thus leading to an improved short-circuit current in photovoltaic devices based on ClAlPc/C60. The use of the interlayers does not change the effective band gap at the ClAlPc/C60 heterointerface, resulting in no change in open-circuit voltage.

  • Employing synchrotron radiation based photoemission spectroscopy (PES) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), our group have investigated Si surfaces, various graphenes and molecular nanolayers. In this talk, I introduce recent results on the surface related systems. All experiments have been performed at the surface science beamlines, 3A2 and 7B1, in Pohang Accelerator Laboratory, where high resolution PES (HRPES) and angle resolved PES (ARPES) are available. Metals or molecules are adsorbed and sometimes extreme ultraviolet is irradiated onto surfaces to give them special functions. I show several examples for surface functionalzation and how to characterize solid surface using the analysis techniques. In particular, lots of ARPES and STM data are provided from graphenes, a strong candidate for replacing Si and conducting oxide currently used in many electronic and optical devices.
