다이아몬드 연마 필름(diamond lapping film)으로 긴 탄소나노튜브를 절단하고 이를 Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM)으로 관찰했다. 절단된 탄소나노튜브를 ${\alpha}$-terpineol을 용매로 ethyl cellulose를 바인더로 사용하여 제조한 페이스트를 스크린 프린팅과 주사 사출법으로 유리 기판에 도포하였다. 스크린 프린팅으로 인쇄된 선에 존재하는 절단된 탄소나노튜브를 기판에 대해 수직 배향을 시키기 위하여 사포, 다이아몬드 연마 필름을 사용하여 마찰시키거나 접착성이 있는 테이프를 이용하여 접촉시켰다가 분리 하는 방법을 시도하였다. SEM으로 탄소나노튜브의 배향 특성을 관찰한 결과 주사 사출법과 스크린 프린팅 후 다이아몬드 연마 필름을 사용하여 후처리하는 간편한 방법으로 탄소나노튜브의 우수한 수직배양이 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, boiling heat transfer coefficients(HTCs) and critical heat flux(CHF) are measured on a smooth square flat copper heater in a pool of pure water with and without carbon nano tubes(CNTs) dispersed at $60^{\circ}C$. Tested aqueous nanofluids are prepared using multi-walled CNTs whose volume concentrations are 0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, and 0.05%. For dispersion of CNTs, polyvinyl pyrrolidone(PVP) is used in distilled water. Pool boiling HTCs are taken from $10kW/m^2$ to critical heat flux for all nanofluids. Test results show that the pool boiling HTCs of the nanofluids are lower than those of pure water in entire nucleate boiling regime. On the other hand, critical heat flux is enhanced greatly showing up to 200% increase at volume concentration of 0.001% CNTs as compared to that of pure water. This is related to the change of surface characteristics by the deposition of CNTs. This deposition makes a thin CNT layer on the surface and the active nucleation sites of heat transfer surface are decreased due to this layer. The thin layer acts as the thermal resistance and also decreases the bubble generation rate resulting in a decrease in pool boiling HTCs. The same layer, however, maintains the nucleate boiling even at very high heat fluxes and reduces the formation of large vapor canopy at near CHF resulting in a significant increase in CHF.

Epoxy resins are widely used as high performance thermosets in many industrial applications, such as coatings, adhesives and composites. Recently, a lot of research has been carried out in order to improve their mechanical properties and thermal stability in various fields. Carbon nanotubes possess high physical and mechanical properties that are considered to be ideal reinforcing materials in composites. CNT-reinforced epoxy system hold the promise of delivering superior composite materials with their high strength, light weight and multi functional features. Therefore, this study used multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and gamma rays to improve the mechanical and thermal properties of epoxy. The diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) as epoxy resins were cured by gamma ray irradiation with well-dispersed MWNTs as a reinforcing agent and triarylsulfonium hexafluoroantimonate (TASHFA) as an initiator. The flexural modulus was measured by UTM (universal testing machine). At this point, the flexural modulus factor exhibits an upper limit at 0.1 wt% MWNT. The thermal properties had improved by increasing the content of MWNT in the result of TGA (thermogravimetric analysis). However, they were decreased with increasing the radiation dose. The change of glass transition temperature by the radiation dose was characterized by DMA (dynamic mechanical analysis).

원자힘현미경(AFM)을 이용하여 탄소나노튜브소자에서 탄소나노튜브를 전기적 또는 기계적으로 조작함으로써 전기적 특성을 변형시키는 연구를 수행하였으며 이를 이용하여 탄소나노튜브의 절단 및 연결을 시연하였다. 조작과 동시에 AFM을 이용한 정전기힘측정법을 적용하여 탄소나노튜브의 절단 및 연결을 시각화할 수도 있음을 밝히고 이를 결합하여 본 연구에서는 AFM을 이용한 탄소나노튜브소자의 극소적인 변형 및 조작이 가능하다는 것을 보였다.

We have fabricated twisted nematic (TN) liquid crystal cells doped by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with different CNT wt. %. With a minute amount doping, multi-walled CNTs did not perturb the liquid crystal orientations at the off- and on-state. The hysteresis studies of voltage-dependent capacitance (V-C) under the influence of electric field generated by ac and dc voltage show that the residual do, which is tightly related to image sticking problem in liquid crystal displays, is greatly reduced due to ion trapping by CNTs. Also, the V-C hysteresis shows dependency of capacitance on concentration of multi-walled CNTs.

Hetero-junction sheet actuator composed of carbon nanotubes and $V_{2}O_5$ nanowires were demonstrated in a bimetal configuration. The successive filtration of $V_{2}O_5$ nanowire solution followed by carbon nanotube dispersed water solution in the same way produced a dark-gray colored sheet. A significant actuation was observed in sodium chloride electrolyte solution with a bending direction to the carbon nanotube side at the positive bias voltage against the copper counter-electrode. As the frequency of the applied voltage increased, the amplitudes decreased, indicating a rather slow response of the hetero-film actuator in the electrolyte solution. The hybrid structure enabled an easy fabrication of the film actuator with the enhanced efficiencies.

탄소나노튜브의 분산성을 개선하고자 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled carbon nanotube, MWNT)를 초음파 반응기에서 butyllithium 및 hexyllithium solution을 이용하여 표면을 화학적으로 개질하였다. 개질된 MWNT는 적외선 분광분석 및 라만분광법을 이용하여 MWNT에 알킬기가 도입되었는지를 확인하였다. 또한, 열중량분석기를 이용하여 알킬기가 MWNT에 도입된 함량을 분석하였으며, MWNT 및 개질된 MWNT를 다양한 용매에 따른 분산성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 유기물의 함량은 5% 내외로 분석되었고 일정 범위내의 용해도 상수를 갖는 용매에 분산성이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

The present paper is concerned with the study of nonlinear ultrasonic waves in a magneto thermo (MT) elastic armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (ASWCNT) resting on polymer matrix. The analytical formulation is developed based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory to account small scale effect. After developing the formal solution of the mathematical model consisting of partial differential equations, the frequency equations have been analyzed numerically by using the nonlinear foundations supported by Winkler-Pasternak model. The solution is obtained by ultrasonic wave dispersion relations. Parametric work is carried out to scrutinize the influence of the non local scaling, magneto-mechanical loadings, foundation parameters, various boundary condition and length on the dimensionless frequency of nanotube. It is noticed that the boundary conditions, nonlocal parameter, and tube geometrical parameters have significant effects on dimensionless frequency of nano tubes. The results presented in this study can provide mechanism for the study and design of the nano devices like component of nano oscillators, micro wave absorbing, nano-electron technology and nano-electro- magneto-mechanical systems (NEMMS) that make use of the wave propagation properties of armchair single-walled carbon nanotubes embedded on polymer matrix.

Growth mechanism of carbon nanotubes(CNTs) synthesized by chemical vapor deposition is abided by two growth modes. These growth modes are classified by the position of activated catalytic metal particle in the CNTs. Growth mode can be also affected by interaction between substrate and catalytic metal and induced energy such as thermal and plasma. We studied the reaction of catalytic metal to the substrate and growth mode of CNTs. Various substrates such as Si(100), graphite plate, coming glass, sapphire and AAO membrane are used to study the relation between catalytic metal and substrate in the synthesis of CNTs. For catalytic metal, thin film was deposited on various substrate via sputtering technique with a thickness of ∼20nm and magnetic fluids with none-sized particles were dispersed on AAO membrane. After laying process on AAO membrane, it was dried at 80$^{\circ}C$ for 8 hour. Synthesizing of CNTs was carried out at 900$^{\circ}C$ in NH3/C2H2 mixture gases flow for 10minutes.

이 연구는 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(MWCNTs) 혼입 PVA 섬유보강 시멘트 복합체에서 배합 순서에 따른 영향을 분석하기 위해 배합 순서를 변수로 고려한 실험을 통해 유동성, 압축 및 휨인장 성능을 분석하였다. 실험 결과, CNT 혼입으로 인하여 유동성이 크게 감소하였으며, CNT가 혼입된 경우 배합 순서에 따라 유동성이 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 압축 강도는 물과 CNT 수용액을 미리 섞어 혼입한 후 PVA 섬유를 혼입하는 순서가 가장 강도 증진 효과가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났으며, 휨인장강도는 건비빔 후 물과 CNT 수용액, PVA 섬유를 미리 섞은 후 배합한 방식이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 다만, 휨인장 거동에서 연성도는 배합 순서와의 연관성이 명확하게 나타나지 않았다. 또한, 미세구조에의 영향을 분석하기 위해 주사전자현미경(SEM) 이미지 분석을 수행하였다. SEM 이미지 분석 결과, 모든 시편에서 CNT가 골고루 분산되어 분포하고 있는 것으로 나타나 CNT가 강도 증진 효과에 기여하고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었으나, 배합방식으로 인한 차이는 명확하게 나타나지 않았다. 이 연구의 주요 결과는 향후 CNT 혼입 PVA 섬유보강 시멘트 복합체의 작업성 및 재료성능 평가 관련 연구에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
