In this study, a new experimental device was developed for measurement of the coefficient of kinetic friction using a photo gate timer system which have advantages of easy and accurate detection of motion. This device, consisting of a side air-guide track and a side friction-free glider, forces a friction sample to move in a straight line without producing unnecessary friction. The new device is compared to two conventional measuring methods of friction for four different friction samples: one is using a camera system and the other is using a force sensor. It is demonstrated that the developed friction device in this study is easier to operate and produces the most accurate and the least deviating results among them. On the basis of these results, we propose that friction experiment using the new friction device is included in general physics experiment, so that engineering students should have a chance to get correct understanding of classical mechanics including friction phenomenon.

A highly sensitive, giant magnetoresistance-spin valve (GMR-SV) biosensing device with high linearity and very low hysteresis was fabricated by photolithography. The detection of magnetic nanoparticles and Fe-hemoglobin inside red blood cells using the GMR-SV biosensing device was investigated. When a sensing current of 1 mA was applied to the current electrode in the patterned active devices with an area of $2{\times}6{\mu}m^2$, the output signals were about 13.35 mV. The signal from even one drop of human blood and nanoparticles in distilled water was sufficient for their detection and analysis.

We have studied the realigning behavior of liquid crystal molecules in liquid crystalline polymer/liquid crystal(LCP/LC) system when they are exposed to external stimulation such as bending and pressing. The birefringence of the LCP/LC in a flexible display device was measured as a function of bending or pressing deformation. The microscopic dynamic behavior of main chain, side chain, and the LC were characterized by FTIR and polarization optical microscopy. When the device is deformed in scattering memory state, liquid crystal(LC) director is found to align from randomly oriented domain state(scattering state) to homeotropic state.

Three-dimensional (3-D) semiconductor nanoarchitectures, including nano- and micro- rods, pyramids, and disks, are emerging as one of the most promising elements for future optoelectronic devices. Since these 3-D semiconductor nanoarchitectures have many interesting unconventional properties, including the use of large light-emitting surface area and semipolar/nonpolar nano- or micro-facets, numerous studies reported on novel device applications of these 3-D nanoarchitectures. In particular, 3-D nanoarchitecture devices can have noticeably different current spreading characteristics compared with conventional thin film devices, due to their elaborate 3-D geometry. Utilizing this feature in a highly controlled manner, color-tunable light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were demonstrated by controlling the spatial distribution of current density over the multifaceted GaN LEDs. Meanwhile, for the fabrication of high brightness, single color emitting LEDs or laser diodes, uniform and high density of electrical current must be injected into the entire active layers of the nanoarchitecture devices. Here, we report on a new device structure to inject uniform and high density of electrical current through the 3-D semiconductor nanoarchitecture LEDs using metal core inside microtube LEDs. In this work, we report the fabrications and characteristics of metal-cored coaxial $GaN/In_xGa_{1-x}N$ microtube LEDs. For the fabrication of metal-cored microtube LEDs, $GaN/In_xGa_{1-x}N/ZnO$ coaxial microtube LED arrays grown on an n-GaN/c-Al2O3 substrate were lifted-off from the substrate by wet chemical etching of sacrificial ZnO microtubes and $SiO_2$ layer. The chemically lifted-off layer of LEDs were then stamped upside down on another supporting substrates. Subsequently, Ti/Au and indium tin oxide were deposited on the inner shells of microtubes, forming n-type electrodes of the metal-cored LEDs. The device characteristics were investigated measuring electroluminescence and current-voltage characteristic curves and analyzed by computational modeling of current spreading characteristics.

Directionally solidified Si films obtained via line-scan SLS can lead to attainment of high-mobility TFTs. The crystallographic texture of the resultant materials can potentially be an important factor because the spatial details thereof may impact the overall device uniformity. Here, we present EBSD analysis of these materials that reveal the existence of relatively large domains with different textures and differing amounts of defects, which in turn, may adversely affect device uniformity.

Efficient organic white light-emitting diodes are fabricated by doping [bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolato) (tripheny-siloxy)aluminium (III)] (SAlq), a blue-emitting layer, with a red fluorescent dye of 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-{2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8-yl)vinyl}-4H-pyran (DCM2). The incomplete energy transfer from blue-emitting SAlq to red-emitting DCM2 enables to obtain a balanced white light-emission. A device with the structure of ITO/TPD (50 nm)/SAlq:DCM2 (30 nm, 0.5 %)/$Alq_3$ (20 nm)/LiF (0.5 nm)/AI shows emission peaks at 456 nm and 482 nm from SAlq and at 570 nm from DCM2. The white light-emitting device shows an external quantum efficiency of about 2.3 %, a luminous efficiency of about 2.4 lm/W, and the CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.32, 0.37) at 100 cd/m^2. A maximum luminance of about 23,800 cd/m^2. is obtained at 15 V and the current density of 782 mA/cm^2.

We synthesized bis (2-methyl-8-quinolinolato)(triphenylsiloxy) aluminum (III) (SAlq), a blue-emitting material having a high luminous efficiency, through a homogeneous-phase reaction. The photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) spectra of SAlq show two peaks at 454 nm and 477 nm. Efficient white light-emitting devices are fabricated by doping SAlq with a red fluorescent dye of 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-{2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8yl) vinyl}-4H-pyran (DCM2). The incomplete energy transfer from blue-emitting SAlq to red-emitting DCM2 results in light-emission of both blue and orange colors. Devices with the structure of ITO/TPD (50 nm)/SAlq:DCM2 (30 nm, 0.5 %)/$Alq_3$ (20 nm)/LiF (0.5 nmj/Al show EL peaks at 456 nm and 482 nm originating from SAlq and at 570 nm from DCM2, resulting in the Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of (0.32, 0.37). The device exhibits an external quantum efficiency of about 2.3 % and a luminous efficiency of about 2.41m/W at 100 $cd/m^2$. A maximum luminance of about 23,800 $cd/m^2$ is obtained at the bias voltage of 15 V.

The two dimensional electron gas system based on GaAs/$Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ heterostructure is widely used for fabricating quantum structures such as quantum dot, quantum point contact, electron interferometer and so on. However the conductance of the device is usually unstable due to the presence of random telegraph noise in the device. To overcome such problem, we have studied the effect of surface state on the stability of the device by altering the surface state of the device with oxygen plasma. The dramatic improvement of the device stability has been observed after cleaning the device surface with oxygen plasma (by 50 W~120 W plasma power) for 30 sec followed by etching in HCl : $H_2O$ (1 : 3) solution.
