One aspect of the present disclosure is a method for selective surface functionalization using a single-photon source. The method for selective functionalization using a single-photon source includes: (a) adding a single-photon source to a solution containing a photosensitizer and a monomer; and (b) emitting a single photon from the single-photon source. One aspect of the present disclosure is a selectively functionalized single-photon source prepared by the method.

A gas sensor and a method of fabricating the same are provided. The gas sensor includes a substrate, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) adsorbed onto the substrate, platinum nanoparticles (NPs) decorated to surfaces of the CNTs, and an electrode formed on the substrate onto which the CNTs with the platinum NPs decorated thereto are adsorbed. When the platinum NPs and CNTs are used as a sensing material, the gas sensor can be useful in sensing gases with high sensitivity even when present at a low concentration of at least 2 ppm and stably sensing noxious gases such as C6H6, C7H8, C3H6O, CO, NO, and NH3 as well as NO2, and can have particularly excellent selectivity and response characteristics with respect to NO2 gas.

Provided is an extreme ultra-violet (EUV) beam generation apparatus using multi-gas cell modules in which a gas is prevented from directly flowing into a vacuum chamber by adding an auxiliary gas cell serving as a buffer chamber to a main gas cell, a diffusion rate of the gas is decreased, a high vacuum state is maintained, and a higher power EUV beam is continuously generated.
Abstract:
A sensing material for gas sensors including carbon nanotubes in which lanthanum fluoride (LaF3) nanoparticles are fixed, a method of fabricating the sensing material, a gas sensor including the sensing material, and a method of fabricating the gas sensor are provided. The gas sensor having an excellent response and excellent selectivity to F2 gas without any electrolytes may be provided using the sensing material. Also, the gas sensor can be useful in measuring a concentration of the F2 gas and minimizing power consumption because the gas sensor may be operated at room temperature without using a heater, and can be used for portable purposes because it is possible to miniaturize the gas sensor.
Abstract:
Disclosed are herein an apparatus and method for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectroscope calibration. The apparatus for EUV spectroscope calibration includes an EUV generating module, an Al filter, a diffraction grating, a CCD camera, a spectrum conversion module, and a control module that compares a wavelength value corresponding to a maximum peak among peaks of the spectrum depending on the order of the EUV light converted from the spectrum conversion module with a predetermined reference wavelength value depending on an order of high-order harmonics to calculate a difference value with the closest reference wavelength value, and controls the spectrum depending on the order of the EUV light converted from the spectrum conversion module to be moved in a direction of wavelength axis by the calculated difference value. Thus, it is possible to accurately measure a wavelength of a spectrum of EUV light used in EUV exposure technology and mask inspection technology.
Abstract:
A method for forming a PN junction in graphene includes: forming a graphene layer, and forming a DNA molecule layer on a partial region of the graphene layer, the DNA molecule layer having a nucleotide sequence structure designed to provide the graphene layer with a predetermined doping property upon adsorption on the graphene layer. The DNA molecule has a nucleotide sequence structure designed for doping of graphene so that doped graphene has a specific semiconductor property. The DNA molecule is coated on the surface of the graphene layer of which the partial region is exposed by micro patterning, and thereby, PN junctions of various structures may be formed by a region coated with the DNA molecule and a non-coated region in the graphene layer.

The apparatus includes a first mirror and a second mirror which are disposed at both ends of a resonator and configured to reflect the laser light, a gain medium disposed between the first and second mirrors and configured to amplify and output light incident from an outside, an etalon configured to adjust a pulse width of the laser light, and an acousto-optic modulator disposed between the first and second mirrors and configured to form a mode-locked and Q-switched signal from the laser light, in which some of the laser light is output through either the first or second mirror to outside the resonator.
Abstract:
There are provided a fabricating method of a carbon nanotube-based field effect transistor having an improved binding force with a substrate and a carbon nanotube-based field effect transistor fabricated by the fabricating method. The method includes forming an oxide film on a substrate, forming a photoresist pattern on the oxide film, forming a metal film on the entire surface of the oxide film having the photoresist pattern, removing the photoresist by lifting off, adsorbing carbon nanotubes on the substrate from which the photoresist is removed, performing an annealing process to the substrate to which the carbon nanotubes are adsorbed, and removing the metal film. Since an adhesive strength between a substrate and carbon nanotubes increases, stability and reliability of a field effect transistor can be improved. If the field effect transistor is applied to a liquid sensor or the like, a lifespan of the sensor can be extended and reliability of a measurement result obtained by the sensor can be improved.
