임플란트와의 골융합을 향상시키기 위해서 세포와 임플란트 표면의 나노구조의 상호작용에 대한 이해가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 Sn를 촉매로 이용하여 Vapor-Liquid-Solid 법을 이용하여 $TiO_2$ 나노와이어를 튜브 전기로 안에서 질소기체 조건하에서 합성하였다. 이 때 촉매로 사용된 Sn 박막의 두께에 따라 응집된 나노스피어를 이용하여 $TiO_2$ 나노와이어의 크기를 조절하였다. 골융합을 위한 예비 실험으로써, 만들어진 $TiO_2$ 나노와이어 샘플 위에서 조골전구세포(pre-osteoblast)를 1주일간 배양하였고, 세포가 $TiO_2$ 나노와이어에 잘 결합함을 볼 수 있었다.

Condensation of vapor on solid inherently accompanies generation of liquid drops on the solid surface. However, these drops prevent the solid surface from directly contacting the saturated vapor, thus causing thermal resistance. This work investigates a novel mechanism for enhancing the condensation process, in which the condensed drops are rapidly removed from a solid surface by imposing vibration on them. In the experiments, a water drop pendant from a solid surface is vibrated at a fixed frequency while increasing the vibration amplitude. Upon repeating the experiments using various frequencies, it is revealed that there exist resonant frequencies at which the minimum vibration amplitudes inducing a fall-off of the pendant drops are remarkably less than those at neighboring frequencies. These frequencies are supposed to correspond to the resonant frequencies for different modes of drop shape oscillations. They are compared with the resonant frequencies predicted by relatively simple analyses, and the factors causing discrepancy between then are discussed.

In this work, we investigate the growth behavior of silicon oxide nanowires via a solid-liquid-solid process. Silicon oxide nanowires were synthesized at $1000^{\circ}C$ in an Ar and $H_2$ mixed gas. A pre-oxidized silicon wafer and a nickel film are used as the substrate and catalyst, respectively. We propose two distinctive growth modes for the silicon oxide nanowires that both act as a unique solid-liquid-solid growth process. We named the two growth mechanisms "grounded-growth" and "branched-growth" modes to characterize their unique solid-liquid-solid growth behavior. The two growth modes were classified by the generation site of the nanowires. The grounded-growth mode in which the grown nanowires are generated from the substrate and the branchedgrowth mode where the nanowires are grown from the side of the previously grown nanowires or at the metal catalyst drop attached at the tip of the nanowire stem.

The densification process during liquid-phase sintering was simulated by Monte Carlo simulation. The Potts model, which had been applied to coarsening during liquid-phase sintering, was modified to include vapor particles. The results of two- and threedimensional simulations showed a temporal decrease in porosity, in other words, densification, and an increase in the average size of pores. The results also showed growth of solid grains and the effect of wetting angle on microstructure.

According to advanced nanotechnology in the field of biomedical engineering, many studies of the interaction between topography of surfaces and cellular responses have been focused on nanostructure. In order to investigate this interaction, it is essential to make well-controlled nanostructures. Electron beam lithography (EBL) have been considered the most typical processes to fabricate and control nano-scale patterns. In this work, $TiO_2$ nanowire array was fabricated with hybrid process (top-down and bottom-up processes). Nanodot arrays were patterned on the substrate by EBL process (top-down). In order to control the spacing between nanodots, we optimized the EBL process using Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as an electron beam resist. Metal lift-off was used to transfer the spacing-controlled nanodots as a seed pattern of $TiO_2$ nanowire array. Au or Sn nanodots which play an important role for catalyst using Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) method were patterned on the substrate through the lift-off process. Then, the sample was placed in the tube furnace and heated at the synthesis temperature. After heat treatment, $TiO_2$ nanowire array was fabricated from the nanodots through VLS method (bottom-up). These results of spacing-controlled nanowire arrays will be used to study the interaction between nanostructures and cellular responses in our next steps.

The vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method, where the "liquid" catalytic droplets collecting atoms from vapor precursors build the solid crystal layers via supersaturation, is a ubiquitous technique to synthesize 1-dimensional nanoscale materials. However, the lack of fundamental understanding of chemical information governing the process inhibits the rational route to the structural programming. By combining the in situ or operando IR spectroscopy with post-growth high resolution electron microscopy, we show the strong correlation between the surface chemical species concentration and nanowire structures. More specifically, the critical role of surface adsorbed hydrogen, generated from the decomposition of Si2H6 precursor on the interplay between nanowire / kinking and the defect propagation is demonstrated. Our results show that adsorbed hydrogen atoms are responsible for selecting -oriented growth and indicate that a twin boundary imparts structural coherence. The twin boundary, only continuous at / kinks, reduces the symmetry of the trijunction and limits the number of degenerate directions available to the nanowire. These findings constitute a general approach for rationally engineering kinking superstructures and also provide important insight into the role of surface chemical bonding during VLS synthesis.

나노구조를 갖는 물질들은 나노구조물이 갖는 고유의 체적 대비 높은 표면적 비와 양자 갇힘 효과에 기인하는 독특한 전기적, 광학적, 광전기적, 자기적 특성으로 인하여 많은 주목을 받아왔다. 열화학 기상 증착 공정은 나노 구조물의 성장과정에서 다양한 구조를 갖는 나노소재의 합성 능력 때문에 더욱 주목을 받아왔다. 본 연구에서는 두 영역 열화학 기상 증착법과 소스 물질 $TiO_2$ 파우더를 이용하여 VLS 공정으로 Si\$SiO_2$(300 nm)\Pt(5~40 nm) 기판 위에 실리콘 옥사이드 나노와이어를 성장시켰다. 성장된 실리콘 옥사이드 나노와이어의 형상과 결정학적 특성을 전계방출 주사전자현미경과 투과전자현미경으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 성장된 실리콘 옥사이드 나노와이어의 형상인 지름과 길이는 촉매 박막의 두께에 의존하여 다른 모양을 나타내었다. 또한 성장된 실리콘 옥사이드 나노와이어는 비정질 상을 갖는 것으로 분석되었다.

Liquid-assisted cleaning technology utilizing a nanosecond laser pulse is effective for removing submicron particulates from a variety of solid substrates. In the technique, saturated vapor is condensed on a solid surface to form a thin liquid film and the film is evaporated explosively by laser heating. The present work studies the role of liquid-film evaporation in the cleaning process. First, optical interferometry is employed for in-situ monitoring the displacement of the laser-irradiated sample in the cleaning process. The experiments are performed for estimating the recoil force exerted on the target with and without liquid deposition. Secondly, time-resolved visualization and optical reflectance probing are also conducted for monitoring the phase-change kinetics and plume dynamics in vaporization of thin liquid layers. Discussions are made on the effect of liquid-film thickness and dynamics of plume and acoustic wave. The results confirm that cleaning force is generated when the bubble nuclei initially grow in the strongly superheated liquid.

Single crystalline Au nanowires were successfully synthesized in a tube-type furnace. The Au nanowires were grown by vapor phase synthesis technique using solid-liquid-solid (SLS) mechanism on substrates of corning glass and Si wafer. Prior to Au nanowire synthesis, Au thin film served as both catalyst and source for Au nanowire was prepared by sputtering process. Average length of the grown Au nanowires was approximately 1 ${\mu}m$ on both the corning glass and Si wafer substrates, while the diameter and the density of which were dependent on the thickness of the Au thin film. To induce a super-saturated states for the Au particle catalyst and Au molecules during the Au nanowire synthesis, thickness of the Au catalyst thin film was fixed to 10 nm or 20 nm. Additionally, synthesis of the Au nanowires was carried out without introducing carrier gas in the tube furnace, and synthesis temperature was varied to investigate the temperature effect on the resulting Au nanowire characteristics.

Metal organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD) 방법을 이용하여 금속 촉매에 따른 ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ 나노 와이어의 제작과 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 본 연구의 성장 조건에서 ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ 나노 와이어의 성장이 가능한 금속 촉매는 Au, Cu 그리고 Ni이 있었으며 각 금속 촉매로 성장한 나노 와이어는 성장률과 형상에 많은 차이가 있었다. Ni 촉매 성장의 경우에는 Vapor-Solid(VS) 과정이 ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ 나노 와이어 성장의 주된 메커니즘이고 Au, Cu 촉매 성장의 경우에는 Vapor-Liquid-Solid(VLS) 과정이 주된 성장 메커니즘 임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 촉매의 종류에 따라서 ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ 나노 와이어의 광학적 특성도 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면, 동일한 성장 조건에서 Ti, Ag 그리고 Sn 금속은 나노 와이어 성장을 위한 촉매로 작용하지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 금속 촉매에 따른 나노 와이어의 성장 가능 여부와 성장한 나노 와이어의 특성 변화가 금속 촉매의 녹는 점, 금속- Ga의 공융 점과 관련이 있음을 상태도와 연관 지어 밝혀내었다.
