Electronic structure of Calix adsorbed on epitaxial graphene (EG) was investigated using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy (HRPES). Increasing the deposition of calix molecule, we found that EG becomes n-type doping using secondary edge measurement (work function change). As we observe bonding nature of O 1s peak, we found that single O 1s peak can be clearly distinguished in the spectra indicating equivalent adsorption state. Finally, we were able to control the band gap of EG using valence band spectra as we change the amount of calix molecule. In this study, we will propose the possibility of band gap modulation of EG using calix molecule.

폴리알파올레핀은 낮은 유동점, 높은 점도지수와 같은 물리화학적 특성이 기존의 광유보다 우수한 합성윤활유이다. 본 논문은 퍼옥사이드계 개시제를 이용하여 올레핀을 사용하지 않고 이소파라핀 분자간의 알킬레이션 반응을 통한 합성 윤활유 제조에 관한 새로운 경로를 제시한다. 평균 탄소수가 i-$C_{16}$, i-$C_{18}$, 그리고 i-$C_{23}$인 세가지 장쇄 이소파라핀의 알킬레이션과 i-$C_{18}$과 2-pentene의 알킬레이션을 di-tert butyl peroxide 라디칼 개시제를 사용하여 여러가지 반응조건에서 수행하여 단독 알킬레이션 반응 경로를 확인하였다. 세가지 유분으로 제조된 알킬레이트를 합성 윤활유로의 적용 가능성을 알아보기 위하여 동점도, 점도지수, 및 유동점을 조사하였다. i-$C_{16}$ 및 i-$C_{18}$ 유분으로 제조된 단독 알킬레이트는 극초고점도지수(>140)와 낮은 유동점(< $-30^{\circ}C$)을 보였다.

Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing allows identification of methylated DNA bases and methylation patterns/motifs at the genome level. Using SMRT sequencing, diverse bacterial methylomes including those of Helicobacter pylori, Lactobacillus spp., and Escherichia coli have been determined, and previously unreported DNA methylation motifs have been identified. However, the methylomes of Xanthomonas species, which belong to the most important plant pathogenic bacterial genus, have not been documented. Here, we report the methylomes of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines (Xag) strain 8ra and X. campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) strain 85-10. We identified $N^6$-methyladenine (6mA) and $N^4$-methylcytosine (4mC) modification in both genomes. In addition, we assigned putative DNA methylation motifs including previously unreported methylation motifs via REBASE and MotifMaker, and compared methylation patterns in both species. Although Xag and Xcv belong to the same genus, their methylation patterns were dramatically different. The number of 4mC DNA bases in Xag (66,682) was significantly higher (29 fold) than in Xcv (2,321). In contrast, the number of 6mA DNA bases (4,147) in Xag was comparable to the number in Xcv (5,491). Strikingly, there were no common or shared motifs in the 10 most frequently methylated motifs of both strains, indicating they possess unique species- or strain-specific methylation motifs. Among the 20 most frequent motifs from both strains, for 9 motifs at least 1% of the methylated bases were located in putative promoter regions. Methylome analysis by SMRT sequencing technology is the first step toward understanding the biology and functions of DNA methylation in this genus.

$[Mn_{12}O_{12}(O_2CPh-4-SMe)_{16}(H_2O)_4]{\cdot}7CH_2Cl_2$ (1), a new single-molecule magnet complex has been successfully synthesized by substitution of acetate ligand of Mn12ac with 4-(methylthio)benzoic acid. Complex 1 crystallizes into triclinic P$\overline{1}$ with a = 18.321(3) $\AA$, b = 19.011(3) $\AA$, c = 27.230(4) $\AA$, $\alpha$ = 86.973(3)$^{\circ}$, $\beta$ = 76.919(3)$^{\circ}$, $\gamma$ = 87.613(3)$^{\circ}$, and Z = 2. In complex 1, one Mn(III) ion has an abnormal Jahn-Teller elongation axis oriented at an oxide ion. Complex 1 has two out-of-phase ac susceptibility peaks in the 2-4 K and 4-7 K regions. Effective anisotropy energy barrier and pre-exponential factor are $U_{eff}$ = 45.95 K, 1/$\tau$0 = 8.6 ${\times}\;10^9s^{-1}\;for\;{\chi}_M$'' peaks in the lower temperature region and $U_{eff}$ = 59.45 K, 1/$\tau_0$ = 2.2 ${\times}\;10^8\;s^{-1}$ for $\chi_M$'' peaks in the higher temperature region. The parameters of S = 10, g = 1.87, D = -0.40 $cm^{-1}$, and E = 0.00034 $cm^{-1}$ were obtained from the M/N${\mu}_B$ vs. H/T plot of complex 1.

Pentamer cluster of azodicarbonamide (ADA) based on the crystalline structure was investigated for the equilibrium structure, the stabilization energies, and the vibrational properties at various levels of the density functional theory. Stretching force constants of N${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H or O${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H, and angle-bending force constants of N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$N or N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$O for intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the pentamer cluster were obtained in 0.2-0.5 mdyn/$\AA$ and 1.6-2.0 mdyn$\AA$, respectively. The geometry of central ADA molecule fully hydrogen bonded with other four molecules shows good coincidence to the crystalline structure except the bond distances of N-H. Calculated Raman and infrared spectra of central ADA molecule in cluster represent well the experimental spectra of ADA obtained in the solid state compared to a single molecule. Detailed structural and vibrational properties of central ADA molecule in the pentamer cluster are presented.

In this report, several fabrication techniques for the formation of various nanochannels (with $SiO_2$, Si, or Quartz) are introduced. Moreover, simple fabrication technique for generating $SiO_2$ nanochannels without nanolithography is presented. By using different nanochannels, the degree of stretching DNA molecule will be evaluated. Finally, we introduce a nanometer scale fluidic channel with electrodes on the sidewall of it, to detect and analyze single DNA molecule. The cross sectional shape of the nanotrench is V-groove, which was implemented by thermal oxidation. Electrodes were deposited through both sidewalls of nanotrench and the sealing of channel was done by covering thin poly-dimethiysiloxane (PDMS) polymer sheet.

Recent advances in the synthesis and characterization of nanoscale objects provided us with the atomistic understanding of charge transport through single molecular junctions. The representative examples are the mechanically controlled break junction technique and STM or conducting AFM junction techniques. Theoretical studies have been reported on the dependence of electronic charge transport on the geometry of molecule-electrode contacts, the critical element toward the realization of molecular electronics. In this report, we will clarify the puzzling discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experiments.
