Photo-induced Surface Modification of Polyimides for Printable Electronics Fablication

Yamashita T., Kodara F., Mino M., Matsuzawa Y., Okano K., Tokyo University of Science, JP

Manufacturing devices with printing technique is one of the key steps in developing printable and flexible electronics or photonics technology. But printing fine structure with ink jet technique is relatively limited because positional precision and [...]

Pore-Size Control of Carbon Nanospace with Ultrasonic Irradiation

Ohkubo T., Hori R., Tsuchiya K., Sakai H., Abe M., Tokyo University of Science, JP

In this study, we examined the micropore-size control on activated carbons by ultrasonic irradiation with various conditions.Pitch-based activated carbon fiber (ACF; AD’ALL Co. Ltd.) was used for the sample having relatively uniform micropores whose micropore [...]

Nano-Sized Polymer Micelle Synthesized from Cationic Gemini Surfmer

Ohkubo T., Koike T., Tsubone K., Tsuchiya K., Sakai H., Abe M., Tokyo University of Science, JP

In this study, we examine the synthesis and characterization of polymer micelle using polymerizable cationic gemini surfactant (surfmer). In this work, polymerizable cationic gemini surfmer, (CH2)2 [BrN(CH3)2C11H22OCOC(CH3)CH2]2 (GSM) was newly synthesized and characterized. Also, a [...]
