Quantum beam technology has been expected to develop breakthroughs for nanotechnology during the third basic plan of science and technology (2006~2010). Recently, Green- or Life Innovations has taken over the national interests in the fourth basic science and technology plan (2011~2015). The NIMS (National Institute for Materials Science) has been conducting the corresponding mid-term research plans, as well as other national projects, such as nano-Green project (Global Research for Environment and Energy based on Nanomaterials science). In this lecture, the research trends in Japan and NIMS are firstly reviewed, and the typical achievements are highlighted over key nanotechnology fields. As one of the key nanotechnologies, the quantum beam research in NIMS focused on synchrotron radiation, neutron beams and ion/atom beams, having complementary attributes. The facilities used are SPring-8, nuclear reactor JRR-3, pulsed neutron source J-PARC and ion-laser-combined beams as well as excited atomic beams. Materials studied are typically fuel cell materials, superconducting/magnetic/multi-ferroic materials, quasicrystals, thermoelectric materials, precipitation-hardened steels, nanoparticle-dispersed materials. Here, we introduce a few topics of neutron scattering and ion beam nanofabrication. For neutron powder diffraction, the NIMS has developed multi-purpose pattern fitting software, post RIETAN2000. An ionic conductor, doped Pr2NiO4, which is a candidate for fuel-cell material, was analyzed by neutron powder diffraction with the software developed. The nuclear-density distribution derived revealed the two-dimensional network of the diffusion paths of oxygen ions at high temperatures. Using the high sensitivity of neutron beams for light elements, hydrogen states in a precipitation-strengthened steel were successfully evaluated. The small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) demonstrated the sensitive detection of hydrogen atoms trapped at the interfaces of nano-sized NbC. This result provides evidence for hydrogen embrittlement due to trapped hydrogen at precipitates. The ion beam technology can give novel functionality on a nano-scale and is targeting applications in plasmonics, ultra-fast optical communications, high-density recording and bio-patterning. The technologies developed are an ion-and-laser combined irradiation method for spatial control of nanoparticles, and a nano-masked ion irradiation method for patterning. Furthermore, we succeeded in implanting a wide-area nanopattern using nano-masks of anodic porous alumina. The patterning of ion implantation will be further applied for controlling protein adhesivity of biopolymers. It has thus been demonstrated that the quantum beam-based nanotechnology will lead the innovations both for nano-characterization and nano-fabrication.

고정층 상압 유통식 반응기를 사용하여 Pt(1)-Fe(30)/MCM-41와 Fe(30)/MCM-41의 촉매상에서 메탄의 분해 반응을 수행하여 수소의 수율을 구하여 Pt의 효과를 조사하였다. XRD 분석으로 반응 전 Pt(1)-Fe(30)/MCM-41 촉매에서 Fe₂O₃와 Pt의 결정상이 나타났다. SEM, EDS 분석과 매핑 이미지로부터 촉매 표면상에 Fe, Pt, Si, O의 나노 입자들이 균일하게 분포함을 알 수 있었다. XPS 분석으로 Pt⁰, Pt²⁺, Pt⁴⁺, Ft⁰, Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺ 등의 이온과 O^2-, O^-의 산소종이 존재함을 알 수 있었고, Fe(30)/MCM-41 촉매에 Pt를 1 wt% 첨가하면 촉매 표면상에서 Fe2p의 원자 백분율이 13.39%에서 16.14%로 증가하고 Pt4f는 1.51%이었다. 수소의 수율은 Fe(30)/MCM-41보다 3.2배 높았다. Pt로부터 Fe로 H₂의 스필오버(spillover) 효과로 Fe 입자의 환원을 증가시키고, Fe, Pt와 MCM-41의 적당한 상호작용으로 미세한 나노입자를 촉매 표면상에 균일하게 분산을 증가시켜 수소수율을 향상시켰다.

Poly [(dimethylmethylvinyl)siloxane 공중합체(PMViS)를 phosphorus oxychloride $(POCl_3)$와 반응시켜 poly [(dimethylmethylvinyl) siloxane] phosphine oxides (PMViSPO)를 제조하였다. Cadmium selenide (CdSe)는 cadmium oxide(CdO), tetradecylphosphonic acid(TDPA), trioctylphosphine oxide(TOPO)를 $300^{\circ}C$에서 반응시키고 여기에 Se를 용해시킨 tributylphosphine(TBP)과 trioctylphosphine(TOP)을 가한 다음 $320^{\circ}C$에서 반응시켜 제조하였다. 또한 CdSe 제조 용액에 PMViSPO를 가하여 CdSe-SPO adduct를 제조하였다. 백금 촉매 존재 하에서 $\alpha,\omega-vinyl$ poly(dimethylsiloxane) (VPMS), HPMS, CdSe 또는 CdSe-SPO를 고속 교반기에 취하고 컴파운딩하여 CdSe 함유 액상실리콘 고무 composite (LSRC-1)와 CdSe-SPO 함유 LSR composite (LSRC-2)를 제조하였다. 제조한 LSR composites 내에 함유된 형광 물질인 CdSe nanoparticles의 분산형태를 측정하여 입자 크기가 $30\sim50nm$인 입자가 균일하게 분포되어 있음을 확인하였고 LSRC-2의 분산도가 LSRC-1보다 우수함을 확인하였다. 또한 CdSe 입자의 개수를 측정한 결과 동일한 면적에 대하여 166개와 202개로 보다 많은 개수의 CdSe가 LSRC-2에 함유됨을 알 수 있었다. LSR composites의 열적 특성을 측정한 결과 CdSe-SPO가 함유된 LSRC-2의 열안정성이 높게 나타났다.

Mo,Cu-doped CeO₂ (CMCuO) nanopowders were synthesized by the nitrate-fuel combustion method aiming to improve the electrical and electrochemical properties of its Mo-doped CeO₂ (CMO) parent by the addition of copper. An electrical conductivity of ca. 1.22·10^-2 S cm^-1 was measured in air at 800℃ for CMCuO, which is nearly 10 times higher than that reported for CMO. This increase was associated with the inclusion of copper into the crystal lattice of ceria and the presence of Cu and Cu₂O as secondary phases in the CMCuO structure, which also could explain the increase in the charge transfer activities of the CMCuO based anode for the hydrogen and carbon monoxide electro-oxidation processes compared to the CMO based anode. A maximum power density of ca. 120 mW cm^-2 was measured using a CMCuO based anode in a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with YSZ electrolyte and LSM-YSZ cathode operating at 800℃ with humidified syngas as fuel, which is comparable to the power output reported for other SOFCs with anodes containing copper. An increase in the area specific resistance of the SOFC was observed after ca. 10 hours of operation under cycling open circuit voltage and polarization conditions, which was attributed to the anode delamination caused by the reduction of the Cu₂O secondary phase contained in its microstructure. Therefore, the addition of a more electroactive phase for hydrogen oxidation is suggested to confer long-term stability to the CMCuO based anode.

The property and performance of the $Al_2O_3/Ni$ nanocomposites have been known to strongly depend on the structural feature of Ni nanodispersoids which affects considerably the structure of matrix. Such nanodispersoids undergo structural evolution in the process of consolidation. Thus, it is very important to understand the microstructural development of Ni nanodispersoids depending on the structure change of the matrix by consolidation. The present investigation has focused on the growth mechanism of Ni nanodispersoids in the initial stage of sintering. $Al_2O_3/Ni$ powder mixtures were prepared by wet ball milling and hydrogen reduction of $Al_2O_3$ and Ni oxide powders. Microstructural development and the growth mechanism of Ni dispersion during isothermal sintering were investigated depending on the porosity and structure of powder compacts. The growth mechanism of Ni was discussed based upon the reported kinetic mechanisms. It is found that the growth mechanism is closely related to the structural change of the compacts that affect material transport for coarsening. The result revealed that with decreasing porosity by consolidation the growth mechanism of Ni nanoparticles is changed from the migration-coalescence process to the interparticle transport mechanism.

Poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) nanofibers containing different amounts of titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) have been prepared by electrospinning technique. Photocatalytic activity of these electrospun PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers and the effect of $TiO_2$ content on the photocatalytic efficiency of PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers have been evaluated by monitoring the photodecomposition of fluorescein dye, rhodamine B and methylene blue under UV irradiation with respect to irradiation time. Moreover, the effect of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) on the photocatalytic behavior of PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers has also been investigated. The results showed that PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers are effective photocatalyst and their photocatalytic efficiency increases with the increase of $TiO_2$ content in the PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers. It is also observed that the presence of $H_2O_2$ significantly enhances the photocatalytic ability of PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers. The morphology and the photocatalytic behavior of the PAN/$TiO_2$ nanofibers containing different amounts of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles have been investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and UV/Visible spectroscopy, respectively.

Nanoparticles of PbTe are prepared via chemical reaction of the equimolar aqueous solutions of $Pb(CH_3COO)_2$ and Te at $120^{\circ}C$. The size of the obtained particles is 100 nm after calcination in a hydrogen atmosphere. Dense specimens for the thermoelectric characterization are produced by spark plasma sintering of prepared powders at $400^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$ under 80 MPa for 5 min. The relative densities of the prepared specimens reach approximately 97% and are identified as cubic based on X-ray diffraction analyses. The thermoelectric properties are evaluated between $100^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$ via electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity. Compared with PbTe ingot, the reduction of the thermal conductivities by more than 30% is verified via phonon scattering at the grain boundaries, which thus contributes to the increase in the figure of merit.
