The block-co-polymer type thermosetting polysiloxane coordinated with metal oxide was synthesized to investigate the effect of metal oxide on the dispersity of metal powder in the polysiloxane/metal composite material. The metal powder in the polysiloxane/metal composite materials is better dispersed with metal oxide complex polysiloxane than the case without metal oxide. To understand the effect of quantities of metal oxide on the polysiloxane chain, the various polysiloxanes with different ratios of block unit were synthesized. Electrical conductivity was interpreted by percolation threshold theory to understand the dispersity of dense composite. The behavior of conductivity was in good agreement with theoretical value. The critical value was decreased as the quantities of metal oxide are increased. As a result, as the metal oxide increased on the polymer chain, the dispersity of metal filler was increased.

The composites of expanded graphite oxide and magnetic nanoparticle (Ni and Co) were synthesized by using simple chemical method. From the raw material natural graphite, the expanded graphite was fabricated using sulfuric acid and $1^{st}$ heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The expanded graphite was changed to expanded graphite oxide by 2nd heat treatment at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 15 sec and chemical oxidation. The expanded graphite oxide/1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solution reacts with the magnetic nanoparticle to form a magnetic graphite oxide composite. These graphite-based materials were characterized by x-ray diffractometer, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, and vibration sample magnetometer. We expect that these results of this paper were become basis research of graphite oxide composite.

Zinc oxide as an optoelectronic device material was studied to utilize its wide band gap of 3.37 eV and high exciton biding energy of 60 meV. Using anti-site nitrogen to generate p-type zinc oxide has shown a deep acceptor level and low solubility. To increase the nitrogen solubility in zinc oxide, group 13 elements (aluminum, gallium, and indium) was co-added to nitrogen. The effect of aluminum on nitrogen solubility in a $3{\times}3{\times}2$ zinc oxide super cell containing 72 atoms was investigated using density functional theory with hybrid functionals of Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof (HSE). Aluminum and nitrogen were substituted for zinc and oxygen sites in the super cell, respectively. The band gap of the undoped super cell was calculated to be 3.36 eV from the density of states, and was in good agreement with the experimentally obtained value. Formation energies of a nitrogen molecule and nitric oxide in the zinc oxide super cell in zinc-rich conditions were lower than those in oxygen-rich conditions. When the number of nitrogen molecules near the aluminum increased from one to four in the super cell, their formation energies decreased to approach the valence band maximum to some degree. However, the acceptor level of nitrogen in zinc oxide with the co-incorporation of aluminum was still deep.

Niobium oxide thin films were synthesized by reactive rf magnetron sputtering. The target was metallic niobium with 2 inch in diameter and the substrate was n-type Si wafer. To control the surface properties of the films, Nb oxide thin films were obtained at various mixing ratios of argon and oxygen gases. Nb oxide thin films were analyzed with alpha step, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The result of alpha step showed that the thickness of Nb oxide thin films were decreased with increasing the oxygen gas ratios. SEM images showed that the granular morphology was formed at 0% of oxygen gas ratio and then disappeared at 20 and 75% of oxygen gas ratio. The amorphous Nb oxide was observed by XRD at all films. The oxidation state of Nb and O were studied with high resolution Ni 2p and O 1s XPS spectra. And the change in the chemical environment of Nb oxide thin films was investigated by XPS with Ar+ sputtering.

Antimony doped tin oxide (ATO) nanoparticles were added as nanofillers to UV-curable polyester-acrylate (PEA) resin for coating to improve thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. In this study, ATO nanoparticles were grafted by 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane and 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane respectively to improve dispersion and interfacial adhesion. The physical properties and surface scratch hardness of the UV-curable nanocomposite coating were improved considerably by introducing the modified ATO nanoparticles.

Vacuum tube arrays (VTA) with a submicron dimension were fabricated by using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nano-templates. The field emission characteristics of Ni nanowires show a turn-on voltage in the range of 11.0-14.0 V and a field enhancement factor in the range of 560-2790. The distance between the tips of Ni nanowires and the anode was much smaller than that between the tips and the anode of conventional designs.
