  • Transparent $TiO_2$ thin films have been prepared by sol-gel spin coating method. The sols used for deposition of thin films were prepared with different ethanol content. The effect of ethanol (solvent) concentration and annealing temperature on the performance of $TiO_2$ thin film solar cells has been studied. The results indicate that the as deposited films are amorphous in nature. $TiO_2$ thin films annealed at temperatures above $350^{\circ}C$ exhibited crystalline nature with anatase phase. The results also indicated that the crystallinity of the films improved with increase of annealing temperature. The high resolution transmission electron microscope images showed lattice fringes corresponding to the anatase phase of $TiO_2$. The band gap of the deposited films has been found to decrease with increase in annealing temperature and increase with increase in ethanol concentration. The dependents of photovoltaic efficiency of the dye-sensitized $TiO_2$ thin film solar cells (DSSCs) with the amount of ethanol used to prepare thin films was determined from photocurrent-voltage curves.

  • The activity of 34 sulfonamide derivatives has been estimated by means of multiple linear regression (MLR), artificial neural network (ANN), simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithm (GA) techniques. These models were also utilized to select the most efficient subsets of descriptors in a cross-validation procedure for non-linear -log (IC50) prediction. The results obtained using GA-ANN were compared with MLR-MLR, MLR-ANN, SA-ANN and GA-ANN approaches. A high predictive ability was observed for the MLR-MLR, MLR-ANN, SA-ANN and MLR-GA models, with root mean sum square errors (RMSE) of 0.3958, 0.1006, 0.0359, 0.0326 and 0.0282 in gas phase and 0.2871, 0.0475, 0.0268, 0.0376 and 0.0097 in solvent, respectively (N=34). The results obtained using the GA-ANN method indicated that the activity of derivatives of sulfonamides depends on different parameters including DP03, BID, AAC, RDF035v, JGI9, TIE, R7e+, BELM6 descriptors in gas phase and Mor 32u, ESpm03d, RDF070v, ATS8m, MATS2e and R4p, L1u and R3m in solvent. In conclusion, the comparison of the quality of the ANN with different MLR models showed that ANN has a better predictive ability.

  • Undoped ZnO films were prepared on Soda lime glass using pyrosol deposition method starting from the solutions composed of $ZnO(CH_3COO){_2}\;2H_2O-H_2O-CH_3OH$. Surface morphology revealed ZnO films were polycrystalline above $400^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature in $H_2O$ only solvent $H_2O-CH_3OH$ solvent revealed more good result than $H_2O$ only solvent. the lowest resistivity of as-deposit ZnO films was 4 ${\Omega}$-Cm and transmittance at 550nm was 85%. post-annealing of as-deposited films in a vacuum leads to s reduction in resistivity without affecting the optical transmittance.

  • There are two distinct approaches to improving the quality of protein NMR structures during refinement: all-atom force fields and accumulated knowledge-assisted methods that include Rosetta. Mao et al. reported that, for 40 proteins, Rosetta increased the accuracies of their NMR-determined structures with respect to the X-ray crystal structures (Mao et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 136, 1893 (2014)). In this study, we calculated 32 structures of those studied by Mao et al. using all-atom force field and implicit solvent model, and we compared the results with those obtained from Rosetta. For a single protein, using only the experimental NOE-derived distances and backbone torsion angle restraints, 20 of the lowest energy structures were extracted as an ensemble from 100 generated structures. Restrained simulated annealing by molecular dynamics simulation searched conformational spaces with a total time step of 1-ns. The use of GPU-accelerated AMBER code allowed the calculations to be completed in hours using a single GPU computer-even for proteins larger than 20 kDa. Remarkably, statistical analyses indicated that the structures determined in this way showed overall higher accuracies to their X-ray structures compared to those refined by Rosetta (p-value < 0.01). Our data demonstrate the capability of sophisticated atomistic force fields in refining NMR structures, particularly when they are coupled with the latest GPU-based calculations. The straightforwardness of the protocol allows its use to be extended to all NMR structures.

  • For the past a few years, we have intensively researched the printable inorganic conductors and ZnO-based amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOSs) for thin-film transistors. For printable conductor materials, we have focused on the aqueous Ag and Cu ink which possess a variety of advantages, comparing with the conventional metal inks based on organic solvent system. The aqueous Ag ink was designed to achieve the long-term dispersion stability using a specific polymer which can act as a dispersant and capping agent, and the aqueous Cu ink was carefully formulated to endow the oxidation stability in air and even aqueous solvent system. The both inks were successfully printed onto either polymer or glass substrate, exhibiting the superior conductivity comparable to that of bulk one. For printable ZnO-based AOSs, we have researched the noble way to resolve the critical problem, a high processing-temperature above $400^{\circ}C$, and recently discovered that Ga doping in ZnO-based AOSs promotes the formation of oxide lattice structures with oxygen vacancies at low annealing-temperatures, which is essential for acceptable thin-film transistor performance. The mobility dependence on annealing temperature and AOS composition was analyzed, and the chemical role of Ga are clarified, as are requirements for solution-processed, low-temperature annealed AOSs.

  • The resistive random access memory (ReRAM) has several advantages to apply next generation non-volatile memory device, because of fast switching time, long retentions, and large memory windows. The high mobility of monolayered graphene showed several possibilities for scale down and electrical property enhancement of memory device. In this study, the monolayered graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition was transferred to $SiO_2$ (100 nm)/Si substrate and glass by using PMMA coating method. For formation of metal-oxide nanoparticles, we used a chemical reaction between metal films and polyamic acid layer. The 50-nm thick BPDA-PDA polyamic acid layer was coated on the graphene layer. Through soft baking at $125^{\circ}C$ or 30 min, solvent in polyimide layer was removed. Then, 5-nm-thick indium layer was deposited by using thermal evaporator at room temperature. And then, the second polyimide layer was coated on the indium thin film. After remove solvent and open bottom graphene layer, the samples were annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ or 1 hr by using furnace in $N_2$ ambient. The average diameter and density of nanoparticle were depending on annealing temperature and times. During annealing process, the metal and oxygen ions combined to create $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle in the polyimide layer. The electrical properties of $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle ReRAM such as current-voltage curve, operation speed and retention discussed for applictions of transparent and flexible hybrid ReRAM device.

  • We fabricated ramp-edge Josephson junctions with barriers formed by interface treatments instead of epitaxially grown barrier layers. Low-dielectric Sr$_2AITaO_6$(SAT) layer was used as an ion-milling mask as well as an insulating layer for the ramp-edge junctions. An ion-milled YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ (YBCO)-edge surface was not exposed to solvent through all fabrication procedures. The barriers were produced by structural modification at the bottom YBCO edge using plasma treatment prior to deposition of the top YBCO electrode. We investigated the effects of pre-annealing and post-annealing on the characteristics of the interface-treated Josephson junctions. The junction parameters were improved by using in-situ RF plasma cleaning treatment.

  • 본 연구는 glycidyl azide polymer (GAP)계 에너지 함유 열가소성 폴리우레탄 탄성체(energetic thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers, ETPE)를 합성한 후 탄성체의 필름 제조 공정의 열처리 조건이 물성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. GAP계 ETPE는 ATR-FTIR, DSC, 그리고 DMA를 이용하여 분석하였다. GAP계 ETPE의 물성에 대한 열처리 조건의 영향은 $80{\sim}130^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서 1 h과 24 h의 열처리 시간을 나누어 연구를 진행하였다. 1 h의 열처리 조건에서는 $130^{\circ}C$의 열처리 온도에서 그리고 24 h의 열처리 과정에서는 $105^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도조건에서 아자이드기의 흡수대인 $2090cm^{-1}$ 피크의 감소가 관찰되었으며, methylene chloride와 dimethylformamide 용매에 대한 필름의 용해도 또한 감소하였다. 이것은 $100^{\circ}C$ 이상 열처리 온도조건이 아자이드기의 가교 부반응을 유도할 수 있음을 나타낸다. 또한 열처리 온도가 $80^{\circ}C$에서 $110^{\circ}C$로 증가함에 따라 온도변화에 따른 저장 탄성률 곡선의 고온 고무평탄 영역이 더 높은 온도까지 확장되었으며, 이 또한 가교반응의 결과이다.

  • 할로겐 램프를 열원으로 하는 image furnace를 사용하여 소위 traveling solvent floating zone법에 의해 Mg TiO3(가이킬라이트) 고용체 단결정을 육성했다. 육성된 결정은 직경 8mm, 길이 100mm이였으며 성장측은(1010)이었다. MgTiO, 상은 고온에서 일정한 공용영역을 나타내고 있으며 완만한 속도로 냉각시키면 TiO, 성분이 결정학적 방위의 콘트롤을 받아 (0001)면에 평행하게 용출됨으로써 광채효과를 나타낸다. 육성된 boul은 검은색을 띠고 있으나 1100℃ 산소분위기에서 annealing시킬 경우 반투명한 단양한 색깔을 보여 준다. 따라서 가이킬라이트는 새로운 종류의 인공캣츠아이로 활용될 수 있다.
