The solar cell electrical output parameters such as the open circuit voltage($V_{oc}$) and short circuit current density($V_{sc}$) are intrinsic characteristics depending on junction depth, doping concentration, metal contacts barriers and cell structure. As a role of thumb for solar cell design, the metal contact barriers for phosphorus doped emitter should have lower work function in order to provide lower series resistance. The fabrication of PESC(passivated emitter solar cell) structure usually involves the use of titanium as a metal contact barrier. Chromium, which work function is similar to titanium but conductance is higher than titanium is being investigated as the new metal contact barrier. Although titanium has lower work function difference than chromium, the electric performances of chromium as contact barrier are higher than titanium. This better performance is attributed to the lower resistivity from chromium. This paper, therefore, compares the attributes of metal barrier contacts using titanium and chromium.

초미세 전자 소자에 대한 개발에 대한 요구는 최근 들어 원자 단위의 구조물 제작에 대한 연구로까지 나아 가게 하고 있다. 좋은 물리적 성장을 가지는 양자도선(quantum wire), quantum dot와 같은 nano 단위 구조물 제작에 대한 요구는 그 가능성의 하나로 , 기울어진 vicinal) 표면위에서의 박막 성장에 대한 연구로 이어지고 있다. 기울어진 표면은 한 원자층으로 된 많은 계단들을 가지고 있는 표면이고, 이러한 계단들의 존재는 박막 성장 시 흡착 원자가 계단 끝에 부착될 확률을 증가 시켜, stepflow 성장과 같은 준 층별 성장을 만들 가능성을 높여주며, sub-ML증착에 대해서 원자가 계단면을 따라 길게 늘어선 양자도선과 같은 성장이 가능한 표면이라는 점에서 관심을 갖게 한다. 그러나 최근의 연구들에 의하면 기울어진 표면 위에서의 성장도 Schwoebel 장벽과 같은 분산 장벽의 존재로 계단과 수직인 축 방향으로 거친 모양의 island가 형성되는 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이 나타나는 것으로 보고되고 있고, 이것은 준 층별 성장이나 양자 도선과 같은 성장을 방해하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 불안정성을 해결할 가능성으로 최근 들어 한 계단의 높이가 큰 step bunching 이 생겨난 표면위에서의 성장이 제기 되고 있으나, 아직 확인되지 않았다. 본 연구는 이러한 기울어진 표면 위에서 박막을 성장 할 때 층흐름(step flow) 성장이 가능한 역학적 동역학적 조건을 구하고자 하며, 방법으로는 KMC 시뮬레이션을 이용한다. 단원자로 구성된 계단이 있는 기울어진 표면 위에서의 homoepitaxy의 경우, 성장 양식은 계단과 계단 사이의 테라스 간격에 크게 의존한다. 테라스 간격이 좁을수록 성장은 보다 층흐름 성장에 근접한다. 그러나 다층으로 성장시킨 시뮬레이션의 결과는 일반적인 장벽 조건 아래에서는 계단의 방향과 수직인 방향으로 평평한 면에서와 동일한 크기를 가지는 island가 성장하는 것을 볼 수 있고, 이 것은 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이다. 그러나 계단 사이의 테라스 간격이 매우 좁은 경우 5-6ML 성장 이하에서는 층흐름 성장과 동일한 성장이 이루어지나 계단을 따라서 미소한 크기의 거칠기가 나타난다. 동일한 기울어진 경사면에 대해서는 분산속도가 좋을수록 보다 계단 면을 따라 보다 큰 크기의 island가 나타난다. 분산 장벽과 같이 동역학적인 요소만으로는 완벽한 층흐름 성장은 높은 온도, 극히 낮은 분산 장벽이라는 조건 이외에는 얻기 어렵다. 그리고 층흐름 성장의 가능성으로 제시된 step bunching 일 일어난 다층 높이의 계단을 가진 면도 다층의 수만큼 계단수를 늘려주는 것과 동일한 결과가 나타나며, 이 경우도 층흐름 성장에는 근접하지만 완전한 형태의 성장은 얻기는 역시 어렵다. 따라서 원자단위의 도선이나 층흐름 성장은 계단과 계단 사이의 인력 또는 척력과 같은 역학적인 요소를 고려할 때 만이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

In this study, we searched for bioactive compounds from natural resources with a supercritical extract. We selected the extracts of Chrysanthemum zawadskii, Lufa cylindrica, Paeonia lactiflora, Gardenia jasminoides and Scutellaria baicalensis, as natural materials, and evaluated the effects of their skin barrier function. We found that these extracts increased the transactivation activity of the PPAR-responsive element (PPRE) and the anti-oxidation with different priorities, respectively. In addition, these extracts promoted the expression of proteins related to cornified envelope (CE) formation, such as involucrin. From these results, we suggest that natural materials from supercritical extracts will be pertinent candidates for the improvement of the epidermal permeability barrier function.

In this study, we analyzed experimently the NO and $SO_2$ removal by the dielectric barrier discharge-photocatalysts hybrid process. The glass spheres were used as a dielectric material for dielectric barrier discharge and the $TiO_2$ photocatalysts were coated onto those spheres by the dip-coating method. The $TiO_2$ particles were coated in the sponge-shape, which has the larger surface area. As the voltage applied to the plasma reactor, the pulse frequency of applied voltage, or the residence time increases, the NO and $SO_2$ removal efficiencies increase. The increase in the supplied concentrations of NO and $SO_2$ leads to the higher energy for NO and $SO_2$ removal and the NO and $SO_2$ removal efficiencies decrease. These experimental results can be used as a basis to design the dielectric barrier discharge-photocatalysts hybrid process to remove NO and $SO_2$.

This study is for finding out Career-barrier of the disabled, and for analyzing the effect of Career-barrier on the dysfunctional career-thought. For this study, 180 disabled people were surveyed. The results are as follows; First, the career-barriers that the disabled people perceive are in order; lack of occupational information, lack of social support, low self-concept clarity, low self-efficiency, and conflict with significant-others. Secondly, difference of career-barrier, caused by the traits of the disabled, has influenced the lack of self clarity and occupational information. In addition, among the types of the disabilities, it is proven that the psychological disability highly correlated to the social support, unlikely to gender difference and job experience. Thirdly, the most influential reason on the decision-making confusion for finding job among the sub-variables of dysfunctional career-thought were; low self-concept clarity, conflict with significant-others, and low self-efficiency. While it turned out that the most influential career-barrier on the performance anxiety for disabled people were low self-efficiency and conflict with significant-others.

The purpose of this work is to develop a model that understands perceived service value is useful when explaining customer satisfaction and that examines the moderating effects of switching barriers on the relationship between service value and customer satisfaction. Serv-Perval scale which consists of five dimensions was adapted to measure perceived service value. Online and offline questionnaire survey was empirically conducted with respondents who experienced services in the various areas. The results show that five dimensions in Serv-Perval scale had impact on customer satisfaction respectively. And the switching barrier moderates between service value and customer satisfaction. It indicates that perceived value of service forecasts overall assessment on customer satisfaction and needs the optimal use of switching barriers in the service industry were offered.

This study examines the mediating effect of self-esteem in the path between parental attachment and career barriers for out-of-school youth and proposes measures to reduce the level of career barriers for out-of-school youth. As analysis data, we used data from the 5th year of the panel survey of school dropout youth conducted by the Korea Youth Policy Institute, and used 318 out-of-school youth for analysis. As a result of analysis using the statistical programs SPSS 23.0 and Amos 23.0 version, the mediating effect of self-esteem was confirmed in the path between emotional support, a subfactor of parental attachment, and all subfactors of career barriers. These results suggest that multifaceted efforts are needed to improve parental attachment (emotional support, economic support) and self-esteem, which influence the level of career barriers for out-of-school youth. Accordingly, based on the results of this study, practical measures were specifically presented to educate parents of out-of-school youth and improve their self-esteem.

Amidst the rapid growth of the vegan cosmetics market, consumer orientation towards environmental and ethical values has been intensifying. However, research on this subject remains limited. This study delves into the relationship between consumer value perception, environmental motivations, and perceived barriers influencing the purchase intentions of vegan cosmetics. Conducting a PLS-SEM analysis on a sample of 300 women with experience using vegan cosmetics, it was discerned that monetary value, social value, brand value, emotional value, quality value, and environmental knowledge play significant roles in influencing purchase intentions. The moderating effect analysis highlighted image barriers and value barriers as crucial factors. Through Importance-Performance Map Analysis, emotional value emerged as a pivotal element in strategizing to strengthen the purchasing intentions for vegan cosmetics. This research contributes both theoretically and practically to enhancing the competitive edge of the vegan cosmetics market and promoting sustainable consumption behavior.
