Orientation control of a polyoxometalate (POM) nanoparticle in its two-dimensional arrangement was attempted by Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique. For their uniorientation, two carboxyl groups were introduced on one side of the POM particle, and hydrophobic long chains were attached by esterification with the carboxyl groups (C18-POM). The C18-POM layer spread on water surface showed stability against surface pressure up to 60 mN/m. The pattern of the C18-POM isotherm was quite different from stearyl alcohol (C18-OH), while the POM itself did not show any development of surface pressure on water surface. The AFM images of C18-POM LB films showed some microcrystalline structures that were noticed as dot structures by Brewster angle microscopy. The microimages for C18-POM did not completely spread out as a monolayer on the water surface. The XPS spectra indicated the presence of POM structures and stearyl ester bonds formed from about 65% of the total carboxyls. The XRD spectra showed that the unioriented POMs were not positioned with the same lattice distance but rather in a wavy surface state.

There has been extensive interest in the development of new nanocomposites. One kind of these systems is the hybrid based on organic polymers and inorganic minerals consisting of layered silicates. Some properties like stiffness, strength, barrier properties, thermal, and oxidative stability can be improved by the presence of the filler in the polymeric matrix[1]. It is reported that, in the nylon 6/clay nanocomposites, the modulus is increased, but impact strength and elongation at break are drastically decreased. (omitted)

This investigation confirms that silver stearate consists of an infinite-sheet, two-dimensional, nonmolecular layered structure. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy reveal the following: plate-like morphology is identified from the SEM image, XRD peaks can be indexed to the (0k0) reflections of a layered structure, and infrared peaks show that alkyl chains are present in an all-trans conformational state with little or no significant gauche population. Based on these structural characteristics, we demonstrate that silver stearate, a prototype of layered organic-inorganic hybrid material, can be grown not only in a designed two-dimensional pattern but also in three-dimensionally ordered ways by using carboxyl-group terminated nanoparticles as a template.

In this work, a new family of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) based esters have been synthesized that consists eight ester functional groups. These are classified into Type-I and Type-II esters based on the starting materials, octakis(3-chloropropyl)silsesquioxane (Cl-POSS) and octakis(3-hydroxypropyldimethylsiloxy) octasilsesquioxane (OHPS) respectively. These new POSS type ester moieties can be used as insulating oils and oil additives in the transformers and also considered to be alternatives to mineral and vegetable oils that are presently used in the insulation system.

나노 크기의 기공이 규칙적으로 배열되어 있는 실리케이트 메조포러스 분말 재료는 넓은 표면적과 화합물에 대한 선택적 흡착 등이 가능하여 많은 연구가 진행퇴고 있다. 최근에는 실리케이트 메조포러스 재료를 박막으로 제조하여 전자소자 혹은 광소자의 제작에 응용하기 위한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 이러한 실리케이트 기공 내부의 표면에 소수성, 극성, 광전자 활성 등, 특정한 기공 표면 특성을 부여하기 위해서 grafting 방법과 co condensation 방법을 이용하고 있다. 특히, co-condensation 방법을 이용하여 tetraalkoxysilane 과 organo-trialkoxysilane을 함께 반응시키는 경우, 유기성분의 양을 더욱 증가시킬 수 있고 물질 내부에 균일한 유기성분의 분포를 얻을 수 있다. 메조포러스 무기 network에 fluorine을 포함하는 그룹이 공유결합으로 결합되어져 있는 물질은 소수성, 흡착성 및 광학적으로 응용 가능성을 가질 것으로 기대된다.

현재, 메탈의 내부식성 코팅막 제조에 사용되고 있는 크로메이트 기반 코팅제는 유독성 물질에 대한 환경 규제에 따라 조만간 사용이 금지 될 예정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 유독성 금속 내부식성 코팅제를 대체할 새로운 환경 친화적인 코팅 재료로서 A1OOH 나노졸이 분산된 ZrOCl$_2$ㆍ8$H_2O$-GPS(3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane)하이브리드 졸을 제조하고 이의 내 부식성 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. AlOOH 졸이 첨가된 유/무기 하이브리드 졸은 염화 알루미늄을 염기로 침전 시킨 수산화 알루미늄 침전물에ZrOCl$_2$ㆍ8$H_2O$를 10 ~ 20 wt% 첨가하고 열처리한 후 여기에 GPS를 AlOOH에 대하여 4 ~ 6몰 배 첨가하여 제조하였다. 제조된 하이브리드 형 졸은 가시관 투광성이 우수하며 시간에 따른 범도 변화가 거의 없었다. 이 코팅 졸을 아연 도금 강판에 딥 코팅법으로 코팅한 후, 상온~20$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하여 염수 시험법으로 하이브리드 졸의 조성 및 열처리 조건에 따른 코팅막의 내부식성 특성을 조사하였다. 또한, 코팅막의 두께를 전자 현미경으로 관찰하였고, 코팅막 경도는 연필 경도계로 조사하였다.

최근 집적형 광소자, 레이저 재료, 자료 저장 또는 통신 기술부문에서 제어된 광학적 성질을 갖는 유기-무기 나노 복합체를 만드는 연구가 많은 관심과 주목을 받고 있다. 유기물인 PEG는 대다수의 금속염을 고정시키는 용매 역할을 하는 polymer로써 액체와 같은 특징을 나타내며 무기물인 silica의 network는 순수한 PEG 시스템보다 좋은 기계적 물성을 나타내며, 투명한 물질을 얻을 수 있게 해 준다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SiO2-PEG의 matrix에 우수한 광학적 성질을 지닌 europium을 doping하여 유기-무기 나노 복합막을 합성하여 europium의 농도와 PEG 분자량에 따른 구조적 및 광학적 성질을 알아보고자 한다.

Optically transparent and flexible electronic circuits and displays are attractive for next-generation visual technologies, including windshield displays, head-mounted displays, and transparent screen monitors. Here we report on the fabrication of transparent transistors and circuits based on the combination of nanoscopic dielectrics and organic, inorganic, or hybrid semiconductors. Furthermore, the first demonstration of a transparent and flexible AMOLED display driven solely by $In_2O_3$ nanowire transistors (NWTs) is reported. The display region exhibits an optical transmittance of ~35% and a green peak luminance of ${\sim}300\;cd/m^2$. These results indicate that NWT-based drive circuits are attractive for fully transparent display technologies.

We fabricated (110) silicon hard master by using anisotropic wet etching for embossing. The etching chemical for the silicon wafer was a TMAH $25\%$ solution. The anisotropic wet etching produces a smooth sidewall surface and the surface roughness of the fabricated master is about 3 nm. After spin coating an organic-inorganic sol-gel hybrid material on a silicon substrate, we employed hot embossing technique operated at a low pressure and temperature to form patterns on the silicon substrate by using the fabricated master. We successfully fabricated the multi-mode planar optical waveguides showing low propagation loss of 0.4 dB/cm. The surface roughness of embossed patterns was uniform for more than 10 times of the embossing processes with a single hydrophobic surface treatment of the silicon hard master.

Organic/inorganic hybrid materials have rapidly become a fascinating research field. In this study, $polyimide/TiO_2$ composites were synthesized from nano-sized anatase $TiO_2$ and two types of polyimide, that is, BPDA-PPD and PMDA-ODA. Nano-sized $TiO_2$ particles were prepared from $TiOEt_4$ solution by the sol-gel method. The synthesized PI/$TiO_2$ composites were characterized by using XRD, TGA, FT-IR, TEM, and Atomic Force Microscope(AFM). $TiO_2$ particles were dispersed well in polyimides and the mechanical and thermal stability of polyimide was improved with $TiO_2$ nano particles.
