Recently, demand for thermally stable metal nanoparticles suitable for chemical reactions at high temperatures has increased to the point to require a solution to nanoparticle coalescence. Thermal stability of metal nanoparticles can be achieved by adopting core-shell models and encapsulating supported metal nanoparticles with mesoporous oxides [1,2]. However, to understand the role of metal-support interactions on catalytic activity and for surface analysis of complex structures, we developed a novel catalyst design by coating an ultra-thin layer of titania on Pt supported silica ($SiO_2/Pt@TiO_2$). This structure provides higher metal dispersion (~52% Pt/silica), high thermal stability (~600$^{\circ}C$) and maximization of the interaction between Pt and titania. The high thermal stability of $SiO_2/Pt@TiO_2$ enabled the investigation of CO oxidation studies at high temperatures, including ignition behavior, which is otherwise not possible on bare Pt nanoparticles due to sintering [3]. It was found that this hybrid catalyst exhibited a lower activation energy for CO oxidation because of the metal-support interaction. The concept of an ultra-thin active metal oxide coating on supported nanoparticles opens-up new avenues for synthesis of various hybrid nanocatalysts with combinations of different metals and oxides to investigate important model reactions at high-temperatures and in industrial reactions.

Transparent films were prepared using the sol-gel process by mixing TEOS with PVA solution that was solved in EtOH and distilled water homogeneously. HCl, $CH_3COOH$ and $NH_4OH$ were used as catalysts of the sol-gel process, and for improving the flexibility of films glycerol was used as plasticizer. In case of each catalyst, transparency and tensile strength were increased, and glass transition temperature (Tg) was shifted to higher temperature with increasing TEOS ratio. Also, in case of adding the plasticizer, the flexibility of films was increased. On the contrary, transparency, thermal stability and tensile strength were decreased with increasing HCl and $NH_4OH$ ratio. Also, the range of being made of film type was expanded when $CH_3COOH$ was used than HCl and $NH_4OH$.

Thermally stable $TiO_2$/Pt/$SiO_2$ core-shell nanocatalyst has been synthesized by chemical processes. Citrated capped Pt nanoparticles were deposited on amine functionalized silica produced by Stober process. Ultrathin layer of titania was coated on Pt/$SiO_2$ for preventing sintering of the metal nanoparticles at high temperatures. Thermal stability of the metal-oxide hybrid catalyst was demonstrated heating the sample up to $600^{\circ}C$ in air and by investigating the morphology and integrity of the structure by transmission electron spectroscopy. The surface analysis of the constituent elements was performed by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The catalytic activity of the hybrid catalysts was investigated by CO oxidation reaction with oxygen as a model reaction.

We present a cost-effective dual polarization quadrature phase-shift coherent receiver module using a silica planar lightwave circuit (PLC) hybrid assembly. Two polarization beam splitters and two $90^{\circ}$ optical hybrids are monolithically integrated in one silica PLC chip with an index contrast of $2%-{\Delta}$. Two four-channel spot-size converter integrated waveguide-photodetector (PD) arrays are bonded on PD carriers for transverse-electric/transverse-magnetic polarization, and butt-coupled to a polished facet of the PLC using a simple chip-to-chip bonding method. Instead of a ceramic sub-mount, a low-cost printed circuit board is applied in the module. A stepped CuW block is used to dissipate the heat generated from trans-impedance amplifiers and to vertically align RF transmission lines. The fabricated coherent receiver shows a 3-dB bandwidth of 26 GHz and a common mode rejection ratio of 16 dB at 22 GHz for a local oscillator optical input. A bit error rate of $8.3{\times}10^{-11}$ is achieved at a 112-Gbps back-to-back transmission with off-line digital signal processing.

실리카의 표면 개질제인 vinyltriethoxysilane(VTEOS)의 함량에 따른 실리카로 보강된 실리콘 고무의 기계적 물성 변화 및 내열성, 내유성, 압축 영구줄음률, 반발탄성 및 가교밀도 변화를 연구하였다. 결과로 VTEOS의 함량이 2.0 phr까지 증가함에 따라 경도는 상승하였으나 인장강도 파단신율, 인열강도가 감소하였다. 내열시험에서는 VTEOS의 함량이 증가될수록 경도변화, 인장강도 변화율, 파단신율 변화율이 크게 감소하였다. VTEOS 2.0 phr에서 가장 우수한 내열특성을 나타내었다. 또한 VTEOS의 함량이 증가될수록 실리콘 고무의 내유성이 증진되었으며, VTEOS 미첨가 시보다 경도 하락폭이 크게 낮았으며, 파란신율 변화율은 약 2배 이상 감소하였다. 반발탄성도 VTEOS의 함량이 증가될수록 우수하였으며, 압축 영구줄음률 역시 VTEOS가 증가될수록 감소하였다. 가교실험 결과 VTEOS가 증가될수록 최대 토크값와 가교밀도가 크게 향상되었다.

ULSI(ultra large scaled integrated circuits)의 고집적화와 고속화를 위한 다층 배선 기술 중에서 층간 절연막의 특성을 향상시켜주는 것은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 소자의 소형화에 따른 절연층의 용량에 의한 신호의 지연을 방지하고 금속배선간의 상호간섭을 막아주기 위해서 현재 요구되는 0.13$\mu\textrm{m}$급 소자의 경우에서는 유전율이 매우 낮은 k$\leq$2.0인 층간 절연막이 필요하게 된다. 이러한 차세대 반도체 소자의 층간 절연물질로서 사용될 유력한 저유전 물질로 Nanoporous silica(k=1.3~2.5)를 적용하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다(1)-(3). 그러한 물질 중에 하나가 organosilicate films이 있는데 carbon-doped oxides, silicon-oxicarbides, carbon-incorporated silicon oxide film, organic-inorganic hybrid type Si-O-C thin films 혹은 organic-inorganic hybrid silica materials 등으로 불린다. 이에 본 연구에서는 nano-pore를 갖는 유무기 하이브리드 구조의 저유전 박막을 BTMSM/O$_2$의 혼합된 precursor를 사용하여 ICPCVD 방법에 의해 형성하였다. 총 유량을 20sccm이 되도록 하여 $O_2$:BTMSM(Ar)의 유량비를 변화시키며, 작업진공도는 300mTorr였다. 기판은 가열하지 않고, p-type Si(100) 위에 Si-O-C-H 박막을 형성하였다. 열적안정성을 조사하기 위하여 30$0^{\circ}C$, 40$0^{\circ}C$, 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 열처리하여 비교 분석하였다. 형성된 박막의 특성은 XPS로 분석하여 유전상수와의 상관관계를 조사하였다.

We investigated the influence of the properties of substrate material on the separation efficiency in microchip electrophoresis. We fabricated the various microchips and studied separation efficiency in microchannels composed of a single material such as quartz, glass, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and polymethylmetha crylate (PMMA), as well as hybrid micro channels composed of different materials. New fabrication process for glass chip was suggested and some treatment is added to improve fabrication process in other chip. Separation efficiency was compared by measuring migration times and bandwidths of EOF and analytes in each microchip. The efficiency is the function of migration time, which is affected by the electroosmotic flow (EOF), and bandwidth of an analyte. EOF is highly dependent upon the characteristics of a microchannel wall surface. Migration time was more reproducible in silica chips than that of PDMS chip and more band broadening was observed in the microchip composed of hybrid material due to non-uniformity of surface charge density at the walls of the channel.

In this study we propose a new photonic crystal fiber (PCF) design that simultaneously offers broadband single-mode operation, high birefringence, and large normal dispersion in the optical-communication wavelength regime. The waveguide is based on a hybrid square-lattice PCF (HS-PCF) that has circular air holes of two different diameters alternating in the cladding, plus a pure silica defect at the center. The optical properties of the guided modes are analyzed numerically by the finite-element method (FEM) with a perfectly matched layer as the boundary condition. The optimized HS-PCF has a dispersion coefficient of $-601.67\;ps\;nm^{-1}\;km^{-1}$ and a high birefringence of $1.025{\times}10^{-2}$ at $1.55{\mu}m$. In addition, over the S+C+L+U wavelength bands the proposed HS-PCF with ultraflat birefringence with a slope on the order of $10^{-5}$.

Fresh and hardened behaviors of a new hybrid fiber (steel fiber, polyvinyl alcohol fiber and calcium carbonate whisker) reinforced cementitious composites (HyFRCC) with admixtures (fly ash, silica fume and water reducer) have been studied. Within the limitations of the equipment and testing program, it is illustrated that the rheological properties of the new HyFRCC conform to the modified Bingham model. The relations between flow spread and yield stress as well as flow rate and plastic viscosity both conform well with negative exponent correlation, justifying that slump flow and flow rate test can be applied to replace the other two as simple rheology measurement and control method in jobsite. In addition, for the new HyFRCC with fly ash and water reducer, the mathematical model between the rheological and mechanical properties conform well with the quadratic function, and these quadratic function curves are always concave upward. Based on mathematical analysis, an optimal range of rheology/ flowability can be identified to achieve ideal mechanical properties. In addition, this optimization method can be extended to PVA fiber reinforced cement-based composites.

본 연구에서는 최근 사회적으로 이슈가 되고 있는 다중이용시설의 화재 시 건축자재로 사용되는 내장재의 가연성으로 인한 화재확산 및 연소 시 유독가스 발생으로 인한 인명피해를 사전 예방하기 위한 방염제를 개발하고자 한다. 유-무기 하이브리드 소재로 실리카 졸에 방염성을 부여할 수 있는 방염 소재를 적용하여 졸-겔법에 의한 방염 접착제 또는 코팅제를 제조하였다. 기존의 방염소재는 물론 비방염소재의 방염화를 비할로겐 방법으로 적용가능하며, 기존의 접착 코팅제의 기본 물성과 특히 내열성능을 높여 화재 시 내열성 및 내구성을 향상시킬 수 있기 때문에 건축자재의 비할로겐 방염화를 확대하고자 한다.
