We report the phase transition temperatures of the $PbZrO_3$ perovskite nanotubes made by sol-gel template synthesis. The lead zirconate($PbZrO{_3}$) nanotubes were prepared with a chelate sol-gel of zirconium tetrabutoxide($Zr(OBu){_4}$) and leadacetate($Pb(OAc){_2}-3H_2O$). $Whatman^(r)$ anodisc membranes, with a 200nm pore size, served as the template. After removing the template in the 6M-NaOH solution, the $PbZrO{_3}$ nanotubes so far have shown an anomalous transition temperature, $123.6^{\circ}C$ as measured by DSC with a small particle size, 15.4nm determined by X-ray analysis with the aid of Scherrer's equation.

졸-겔 형판 합성법을 이용하여 페로브스카이트 구조를 갖는 나노튜브를 합성하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. PbTiO3(PT), PbZrO3(PZ)와 PbZrO3-PbTiO3(PZT)고용체 나노튜부는 반응물, Ti(OPri)4, Zr(OBu)3와 Pb(OAc)2-3H2O 들의 킬레이트 졸-겔 합성법에 의해서 합성하였다. 산화 알루미늄 형판은 200nm의 직경을 갖는 훠트만 아노디스크가 사용되었다. 6.0M-NaOH 용액에서 형판을 제거한 다음, 주사현미경 분석에 의해서 50m 길이와 200nm 외곽 직경의 생성물 나노튜브를 확인할 수 있었다. 투과현미경 분석과 전자회절 분석에 의하여 나노튜브가 다결정임을 확인하였다. DSC 분석에 의하여 PT 나노튜브의 상전이 온도는 특이하게도 234.4$^{\circ}C$ 임이 확인되었으며, 이때의 입자크기는 X-선 분석의 하나인 Scherrer 식에 의해서 15.4nm 임이 계산되었다.

$Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ thin film with inverse hemispheric structure was fabricated on a Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by the sol-gel and dip coating method for use as an anode for 3-dimensional (3D) thin-film batteries. Polystyrene (PS) beads of 400 nm diameter were used to prepare the template for the inverse hemispheric structure. A coating solution prepared using precursor sources was dropped on the template-deposited substrates, which were then calcinated at $400^{\circ}C$. The template was removed by calcination, and the inverse hemispheric structure was successfully formed by an annealing process. The cyclic performance during high-rate charge/discharge processes of the $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ film with inverse hemispheric structure was superior to that of the flat $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ film.

Carbon nanotube(CNT) plays an essential role in various fields of nano based science and technology. Recently, silica coated CNT composites are interested because they are useful for the optical, magnetical, and catalytic applications. In this report, carboxyl groups were introduced on the MWCNT using nitric acid. In order to maximize the silica encapsulation efficiency, carboxyl groups of MWCNT reacted with a silane coupling agent were used to prepare silica coated MWCNT. Due to their strong interaction between modified MWCNT and TEOS. Silica layer with a controllable thickness was achieved. Silica coated MWCNT were further utilized as the template for the synthesis of hollow silica nanotubes after $800^{\circ}C$ calcination.

졸-겔 형판 합성법으로 제조된 페롭스카이트 나노구조의 입자크기에 따른 상전이를 연구하였다. 타탄산납, $PbTiO_{3}$, 화합물의 나노구조는 출발물질인 티타늄 테트라부톡사이드($Ti(OBu)_{4}$)와 아세트산 납($Pb(OAc)_{2}-3H_{2}O$)을 선택된 용매에 녹이고, 산화 알루미늄 형판($AlO_{x}\;template$)을 이용한 졸-겔 합성과정으로 거쳐서 제조하였다. 이 때, 200-nm 직경의 세공을 가진 막($Whatman^{\circledr}\;anodisc\;membranes$)이 형판으로 이용되었다. 선구물질이 코팅된 형판을 공기 중에서 말린 후, $650^{\circ}C$에서 소결하고, 6M-NaOH 용액에서 형판을 제거하였다. $PbTiO_{3}$ 나노구조의 상전이는 DSC, DTA, 비선형 광학적 특성 등을 이용하여 조사하였다.

A new synthetic strategy based on the acid-base catalyzed sol-gel method was developed for the preparation of a series of mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticles. A key feature of the method involves a gradual change in pH (0.8- 9) during the sol-gel transition, which guarantees easy introduction of mesoporosity without relying on the well-established sonochemical or template approach. In addition, this method leads to the exclusive formation of the anatase phase stable enough to the calcination temperature up to 600 oC. The physicochemical properties of the particles in the series were characterized by various spectroscopic and analytical techniques such as wide-angle XRD, SAXRD, BET surface area, FE-SEM, TEM, FT-IR, TGA, and XPS. The photocatalytic efficiency of these materials was investigated for the oxidation of toluene under UV-irradiation. All but T-ad in the series exhibited high photocatalytic activity pushing the reaction into completion within 3 h. The reaction followed the first order kinetics, and the rate reaches as high as 3.9 × 10?2/min which exceeds the one with the commercially available Degussa P-25 by a factor of 3.2. When comparison is made among the catalysts, the reactivity increases with increase in the calcination temperature which in turn increases the crystallinity of the anatase phase, thus revealing the following rate orders: T-3 < T-4 < T-5 < T-6.

Porous ${\eta}-Al_2O_3$ was synthesized by modified sol-gel method using ionic liquid as a templating material. The addition of ionic liquid assisted to increase the surface area of alumina. However, the acidity of aluminas prepared with ionic liquids was hardly affected regardless the change of its structural properties. Among the ionic liquids used in this study, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([Bmim][$PF_6$]) was the most effective ionic liquid to produce porous ${\eta}-Al_2O_3$ particles. The catalytic performance of these aluminas has been investigated in dehydration of methanol to produce dimethyl ether. The alumina prepared with [Bmim][$PF_6$] outperformed the other aluminas except ${\eta}-Al_2O_3$ without modification in this reaction.

Uniform ZrO₂ nanoballs were synthesized at 700℃ using the inverse replication method through a colloid-imprinted carbon (CIC) template. The structural, dielectric, and conducting properties of the ZrO₂ nanoballs were investigated and compared with those of ZrO₂ film prepared by sol-gel method and powdered ZrO₂ chemical. Both the monoclinic and cubic phases were found in the ZrO₂ balls and film but the ZrO₂ chemical showed a monoclinic phase, where the cubic structure is known to be formed at above 2,300℃. ZrO₂ nanoballs showed the lower dielectric property of k = 21.2 at 1 MHz because the 8-coordinated cubic phase in the ZrO₂ nanoball produced lower polarization than the polarization of the 7-coordinated monoclinic ZrO₂ chemical (k = 23.6). The dielectric stability was maintained in each ZrO₂ ball, film, and chemical under the applied forward and reverse voltage range (−5 to +5 V) at 1 MHz. The ionic conductivities were 7.86 × 10⁻⁸/Ω·cm for ZrO₂ nanoballs, 3.29 × 10⁻⁸/Ω·cm for ZrO₂ chemical, and 6.70 × 10⁻⁵/Ω·cm for the thickness of 1,053 nm ZrO₂ film at room temperature with the electronic contribution being less than 0.006%.

In an original effort, this lab attempted to employ polystyrene nanoparticles as a template for the synthesis of ordered and highly porous macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films, utilizing their high combustion temperature and narrow size distribution. However, polystyrene nanoparticle thin films were not obtained due to the low interaction between individual particles and between the particle and silicon substrate. However, polystyrene-polyacrylic acid (PS-AA) colloidal particles of a core-shell structure were synthesized by a one-pot miniemulsion polymerization approach, with hydrophilic polyacrylic acid tails on the particle surface that improved interaction between individual particles and between the particle and silicon substrate. The PS-AA thin films were spin-coated in the thickness ranges from monolayer to approximately $1.0\;{\mu}m$. Using the PS-AA thin films as sacrificial templates, macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films were successfully synthesized by vapor deposition or conventional solution sol-gel infiltration methods. Inspection with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed that the macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films consist of interconnected air balls (~100 nm). Typical macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films showed ultralow refractive indices ranging from 1.098 to 1.138 at 633 nm, according to the infiltration conditions, which were confirmed by spectroscopy ellipsometry (SE) measurements. This research shows how the synthetic control of the macromolecule such as hydrophilic polystyrene nanopaticles and silicate sol precursors innovates the optical properties and processabilities for actual applications.
