Room-Temperature Ceramic-Based Composite Coating by Aerosol Deposition

Recently, electronic industries are responding to the increasing consumer demands for high speed and miniaturization with multi-functionality so that the 3D integration technology for electronic components is greatly required. To realize the 3D integration, various materials, such as metals, polymer and ceramic materials, are co-integrated in a single board. Although ceramics have superior electrical properties and thermal reliabilities, they are hard to be applied to this integration application due to their high sintering temperature and brittleness. To overcome these problems, we focused on the room-temperature growth of nanostructured dense ceramic thick films by aerosol deposition (AD) process. Our research group has researched on fabrication of functional films for the 3-dimensional integration by the AD process, and we believe that the AD process will be applied to various applications by utilizing the unique advantages that are capable of fabricating ceramic-based composite films at room temperature. In this seminar, it will be introduced and discussed regarding the AD process and its applications.

Macrocycles: Catalysis and beyond

Complexes bearing macrocyclic ligands such as calixarenes (cyclic polyphenols) have many potential applications. In this lecture, our work in the areas of alpha-olefin polymerization catalysis, anti-Cancer and gas storage will be discussed.
