Silver nano-particles have been synthesized by liquid phase reduction method and alcohol reduction process. Silver nano-particles of the size 30 ~ 40 nm were formed successfully by alcohol reduction process. The formation, structure, morphology and size of silver nano-particles have been studied using FE-SEM, TEM, XRD, UV-visible spectroscopy. In particular high dispersion stability of the synthesized silver nano-particles could be obtained by PVP binding. Antibacterial activity of Ag/PET master batch sample made from its nano-silver particles showed excellent antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli.

Graphene is a carbon based material and it has great potential of being utilized in various fields such as electronics, optics, and mechanics. In order to develop graphene-based logic systems, graphene field-effect transistor (GFET) has been extensively explored. GFET requires supporting devices, such as volatile memory, to function in an embedded logic system. As far as we understand, graphene has not been studied for volatile memory application, although several graphene non-volatile memories (GNVMs) have been reported. However, we think that these GNVM are unable to serve the logic system properly due to the very slow program/read speed. In this study, a GVM based on the GFET structure and using an engineered graphene channel is proposed. By manipulating the deposition condition, charge traps are introduced to graphene channel, which store charges temporarily, so as to enable volatile data storage for GFET. The proposed GVM shows satisfying performance in fast program/erase (P/E) and read speed. Moreover, this GVM has good compatibility with GFET in device fabrication process. This GVM can be designed to be dynamic random access memory (DRAM) in serving the logic systems application. We demonstrated GVM with the structure of FET. By manipulating the graphene synthesis process, we could engineer the charge trap density of graphene layer. In the range that our measurement system can support, we achieved a high performance of GVM in refresh (>10 ${\mu}s$) and retention time (~100 s). Because of high speed, when compared with other graphene based memory devices, GVM proposed in this study can be a strong contender for future electrical system applications.

This paper presents fabrication method of nano-structured PMMA substrates as well as evaluations of their optical transmittance. For anti-reflective surface, surface coating method had been conventionally used. However, it requires high cost, complicated process and post-processing times. In this study, we suggested the fabrication method of anti-reflective surface by the hot embossing process. Using the nano patterned master fabricated by anodic aluminum oxidation process. Anodic aluminum oxide(AAO) is widely used as templates or a molds for various applications such as carbon nano tube (CNT), nano rod and nano dots. Anodic aluminum oxidation process provides highly ordered regular nano-structures on the large area, while conventional pattering methods such as E-beam and FIB can fabricate arbitrary nano-structures on small area. We fabricated a porous alumina hole array with various inter-pore distance and pore diameter. In order to replicate nano-structures using alumina nano hole array patterns, we have carried out hot-embossing process with PMMA substrates. Finally the nano-structured PMMA substrates were fabricated and their optical transmittances were measured in order to evaluate the charateristivs of anti-reflection. Anti-reflective structure can be applied to various displays and automobile components.

The platelet AlO(OH) nano colloids were prepared by hydrothermal reaction of the $\gamma-Al_2O_3$ obtained with dehydration of $\gamma$-AlO(OH) and dilute $CH_3COOH$ solution. In hydrothermal reaction process, reversible reaction was accompanied between $\gamma-Al_2O_3$ and AlO(OH), and hydrothermal reaction temperature, hydrothermal reaction time and $CH_3COOH$ concentration had an effect on the crystal structure, surface chemical property, surface area, pore characteristics and crystal morphology of the AlO(OH) nano colloid particles. In this study, it was investigated to the hydrothermal reaction condition of the AlO(OH) nano colloid for using catalyst support, heat resisting agent, adsorbents, binder, polishing agent and coating agent. The crystal structure, surface area, pore volume and pore size of the platelet AlO(OH) nano colloids were investigated by XRD, TEM, TG/DTA, FT-IR and $N_2$ BET method in liquid nitrogen temperature.

Polymer light-emitting diodes(PLEDs) have great potential application in large area flat panel displays and general lighting so intense academic and industrial research, and impressive scientific and technological progress has been achieved in this field. However, the efficiency and stability of PLEDs till need to be improved in order to fully realize the advantages of low cost and ease of fabrication provided by organic materials. Here, we report our effort to enhance the PLED' s performance in two approaches : 1) Utilizing nano-structured materials such as nano particles, clay, nano porous silica in active layer 2) Modifying the device structure in nano scale to improve not only the device efficiency but also its stability.

In order to reach the high quality of organic thin films such as high mobility for device applications, it is strongly desirable to study the growth properties of pentacene film as a function of evaporation condition. Here, we report the structure and morphology of thermal evaporated pentacene thin film by AFM, SEM, and XRD as a function of the evaporation rate and substrate temperature. These results play a key role in determining the electric performance of organic thin film transistor devices.

Photonic crystals, periodic structure with a high refractive index contrast modulation, have recently become very interesting platform for manipulation of light. The existence of a photonic bandgap, a frequency range in which propagation of light is prevented in all direction, makes photonic crystal very useful in application where spatial localization of light is required for waveguide, beam splitter, and cavity. But fabrication of 3 dimensional photonic crystal is still difficult process. a concept that has recently attracted a lot of attention is a planar photonic crystal based on a dielectric membrane, suspended in the air, and perforated with 2 dimensional lattice of hole. We show that the polymer slabs suspended in air with triangular lattice of air hole can exhibit the in-plane photonic bandgap for TE-like modes. The fabrication of Si master with pillar structure using hot embossing process was investigated for 2 dimensional low-index-contrast photonic crystal waveguide.

This study presents reasonable relationships to estimate the deformation based on beam mechanism analysis and TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) data. To declar the length points of co-axial cable installed in civil structure, Nano material ($BaTiO_3$ powders and silver mixture) is used on co-axial cables. From the laboratory test, nano material could make the correct information about attached cable points on beam, and TDR sensor system and Fourier series (data filter) found out the deformation of beam. Therefore it is concluded that the correct deformed information of beam were acquired by Nano-TDR and Fourier filter, they are much more effective to apply at health monitoring system in civil structure compared to conventional TDR or Fiber Optic Sensor (FOS) systems.

This study deals with the effect of austempering temperature and time on the microstructures and mechanical properties of high-carbon nano-bainite steels. Although all the austempered specimens are mainly composed of bainite, martensite, and retained austenite, the specimens which are austempered at lower temperatures contain finer packets of bainite. As the duration for austempering increases, bainite packets are clearly seen due to larger amount of carbon atoms being redistributes into bainite and retained austenite during bainite transformation. As the austempering time increases, the hardness of the specimens gradually decreases as a result of lower martensite volume fraction, and later increases again due to the formation of nano-bainite structure. The Charpy impact test results indicate that the impact toughness of the austempered specimens can be improved if the formation of nano-bainite structure and the transformation induced plasticity effect of retained austenite are optimized at higher austempering temperature.
