Using a novel bi-axial confocal rheoscope, we investigate the structure and rheology of sheared colloidal suspensions under confinement. Consistent with previous work [X. Cheng \textit{et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A.}, 2011, 109, 63], we observe a vorticity-aligned string phase in moderate concentrated colloid…

A rail is an important and the most heavily laden element in the railway superstructure, because it \nfunctions as both the running surface used for vehicle guidance and the beam directly transmitting the \nload of the vehicles to the ballast bed and the railway substructure. The first part of the thesis describes \nt…

A study of exchange bias systems has been made focusing on the characteristics of the interfacial spin clusters found in-between the bilayers. The materials studied were primarily IrMn (10nm) / CoFe (2nm) thin films of varying grain sizes. They were selected as the bulk properties have already been well characterised…

Nanotechnology interest and research has increased dramatically over the last decade, but there remain fundamental limitations and barriers to the fabrication of ever smaller devices. To overcome these limitations, new nanofabrication methods and novel nanoscale systems must be explored. To form nanoscale systems, we…

The helium coolant in high-temperature reactors inevitably contains low levels of impurities during steady-state operation, primarily consisting of small amounts of H{sub 2}, H{sub 2}O, CH{sub 4}, CO, CO{sub 2}, and N{sub 2} from a variety of sources in the reactor circuit. These impurities are problematic because the…

전기이중층 커패시터용 활성탄의 정전 용량 향상을 위해 우레아를 이용해 활성탄 표면에 펩티드 결합을 유도하였다. 우레아 도입에 따른 활성탄은 소성과정을 거쳐 안정화되었으며, 전기화학적 특성을 순환전류 전압법을 이용하여 정전 용량을 관찰하고, 임피던스를 통해 저항 변화를 관찰하였으며, 충방전 평가를 통해 싸이클 성능을 관찰하였다. 결과적으로 질소성 작용기의 도입으로 정전 용량은 기존 탄소재에 비해 약 22.9%의 향상을 이루었으며, 저항 감소 및 우수한 싸이클 성능을 나타냄을 확인하였다. In order to improve capacitance of activated…
