A study on the arc resistance and light reflectance of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) nozzle for circuit breaker is presented. PTFE has been used widely as a material for circuit breaker nozzle. PTFE has excellent electrical resistivity, high melt viscosity, chemical inertness, heat resistance and low loss factor. PTFE melts at $327\;^{\circ}C$ but the viscosity is very high above the melting point. In the arcing environment in a circuit breaker, the fraction of the power is emitted out of the arc and reaches the nozzle wall by radiation, causing ablation at the surface and in the depth of the wall. Some fraction of the radiation power emitted out of the arc directly break up the chemical bonds at the surface while some fraction of the radiation power penetrates into the wall, heats up the material to evaporation temperature and causes damages deeper inside the volume of the nozzle. In this paper, some fillers that have endurance in the high temperature arc environment were added into PTFE. Adding some fillers into PTFE was expected to be efficient in improving the endurability against radiation. The light reflectance and arc resistance of PTFE composites were investigated.

A gem-quality yttria-stabilized zirconium oxide crystals were synthesized by the skull-melting method, using the RF electrical apparatus. Principal raw materials used were $ZrO_2$and 25 wt.% $Y_2O_3$as stabilizer and 0.03~0.05 wt.% $Nd_2O_3$decolorizing agent were added to it. The single crystals were approximately 20$\times$63 mm in size with chemical composition $Zr_{0.73}$ $Y_{0.27}$ $O_{1.87}$ . The crystals are isotropic with no appreciable anisotropism under a polarizing microscope. Their refractive indices are in the range of 2.15~2.18, specific gravity 5.85, Mohs' hardness 8~8.5, and reflectivity 13.47%. The zirconia crystals were confirmed to have cubic structure with Face-centered lattice(Z=4), space group Fm3m ($CaF_2$-type structure) and unit cell parameters are a=5.157 $\AA$. The optimal growing conditions for yttria-stabilized zirconia are 50 kW, 2.94 MHz in power and to use a crucible with 105 mm $\times$ 135 mm in size. When the lowering speed of the crucible was set 16mm/hr gave the best yield, 42%. Since the refractive index(2.15~2.18) of cubic zirconia is smaller than that of diamond, the angle between crown and pavilion should be fashioned to make it smaller than $40.5^{\circ}$ to show the maximum brilliancy and fire.

The Hydrogenated silicon nitride (SiNx:H) using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition is widely used in photovoltaic industry as an antireflection coating and passivation layer. In the high temperature firing process, the $SiN_x:H$ film should not change the properties for its use as high quality surface layer in crystalline silicon solar cells. Initially PECVD-$SiN_x:H$ film trends were investigated by varying the deposition parameters (temperature, electrode gap, RF power, gas flow rate etc.) to optimize the process parameter conditions. Then by varying gas ratios ($NH_3/SiH_4$), the hydrogenated silicon nitride films were analyzed for its optical, electrical, chemical and surface passivation properties. The $SiN_x:H$ films of refractive indices 1.90~2.20 were obtained. The film deposited with the gas ratio of 3.6 (Refractive index=1.98) showed the best properties in after firing process condition. The single crystalline silicon solar cells fabricated according to optimized gas ratio (R=3.6) condition on large area substrate of size $156{\times}156mm$ (Pseudo square) was found to have the conversion efficiency as high as 17.2%. Optimized hydrogenated silicon nitride surface layer and high efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells fabrication sequence has also been explained in this study.

Ultra Violet(UV) is gradually being replaced with LED instead of general UV lamps. However, the light efficiency of UV LED is still lower than that of the general lamp, and the light efficiency is also low. Due to the current environment and technical problems of UV lamps, the LED replacements are gradually being made. In this study, a new package design and analysis were performed to increase the lifetime and performance of UV LEDs. A new packaging for UV LED were designed and implemented. The new packaging for UV LED was constructed to improve light efficiency. And the electrical and optical characteristics were analyzed respectively. To improve the optical efficiency in UV LED package, the Al has been used based on high reflectivity and applying the optimal lens focusing. Compared to the existing silver Ag, the light efficiency was improved by about 30% or more, and it was confirmed that the light output degradation characteristic was improved by about 10% in the newly applied optical device chip.

This paper proposes a design technique of wide-band antenna for handy phone with 700 MHz LTE(Long Term Evolution) low frequency bandwidth. The proposed antenna based on the PIFA(Planar Inverted-F type Antenna) structure was designed and considered. In order to realize the wide bandwidth, a round structure which is able to control the electric path length of current and a branch line element which can be obtain the dual resonance characteristics were introduced in this design. As a result, It was realized about 95 MHz bandwidth in spite of very small space of $30{\times}34mm$ used for FR-4 substrate with relative permitivity of 4.4 at 700 MHz band. Measurement results of return loss, bandwidth and gain radiation pattern were agreed well with their calculation results.

일반적으로 박막 태양전지의 효율은 박막 종류에 따른 광 흡수율에 의해 결정되며, 이는 증착한 박막의 두께에 의해 결정된다. 증착한 박막의 두께가 두꺼워질수록 광 흡수율은 증가하지만, 박막 두께가 지나치게 두꺼워지면 열화 현상으로 인한 모듈의 효율 감소가 생기므로 적절한 박막의 두께가 요구된다. 특히 a-Si:H의 경우 가시광 영역에서 높은 흡수계수를 가지고 있어서 얇은 박막 두께로도 태양전지의 제작이 가능하지만, 동일한 박막 두께에서 효율을 더욱 향상시키기 위한 다양한 광 포획 기술에 대한 연구가 많이 진행 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자외선을 이용한 nano-imprint lithography 기술을 이용하여 a-Si:H 태양전지의 유리기판 위에 pattern을 삽입하여 광 산란 효과를 향상 시키고자 하였다. 또한 유리기판의 굴절률 (n=1.5)과 투명전극의 굴절률 (n=1.9)의 중간 값을 갖는 ZnO nanoparticles (n=1.7)이 분산 된 imprinting resin을 사용함으로써 점진적으로 굴절률을 변화시켜, 최종적으로 a-Si:H 층까지의 광 투과율을 높이고자 하였다. 제작한 기판의 종류는 다음과 같다. 첫 번째 기판으로는 유리기판 위에 ZnO nanoparticles이 분산 된 imprinting resin을 spin-coating 하여 점진적인 굴절률의 변화에 의한 투과도 향상을 확인하고자 하였다. 두 번째 기판으로는 규칙적인 배열을 갖는 micro 크기의 패턴을 형성하였다. 마지막으로는 불규칙한 배열을 갖는 nano 크기와 micro 크기가 혼재 된 패턴을 형성하여 투과도 향상과 동시에 빛의 산란을 증가시키고자 하였다. 후에 이 세가지 종류를 기판으로 사용하여 a-Si:H 기반의 박막 태양전지를 제작하였다. 먼저 제작한 박막 태양전지용 기판의 광학적 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 유리 기판 위에 형성한 패턴에 의한 roughness 변화를 확인하기 위해 atomic force microscopy (AFM)를 이용하여 시편의 표면을 측정하였다. 또한 제작한 유리 기판 위에 투명 전극층을 형성 후, 이로 인한 전기적 특성의 변화를 확인하기 위해 hall measurement system을 이용하여 sheet resistance, carrier mobility, carrier concentration 등의 특성을 측정하였다. 또한, UV-visible photospectrometer 장비를 이용하여 각 공정마다 시편의 광학적 특성(투과도, 반사도, 산란도, 흡수도 등)을 측정하였고, 최종적으로 제작한 박막 태양전지의 I-V 특성과 외부양자효율을 측정하여 태양전지의 효율 변화를 확인하였다. 그 결과 일반적인 유리에 기판에 제작된 a-Si:H 기반의 박막 태양전지에 비해, ZnO nanoparticles이 분산 된 imprinting resin을 spin-coating 하여 점진적인 굴절률 변화를 준 것만으로도 약 12%의 태양전지 효율이 증가하였다. 또한, micro 크기의 패턴과 nano-micro 크기가 혼재된 패턴을 형성한 경우 일반적인 유리를 사용한 경우에 비해 각각 27%, 36%까지 효율이 증가함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a new MDAS-DR antenna structure designed to efficiently shape a flat-topped radiation pattern is proposed. The antenna structure is composed of a stacked micro-strip patch exciter and a multi-layered disk array structure(MDAS) surrounded by a dielectric ring. The MDAS, which was supplied by a stacked microstrip patch exciter with radiating power, can form a flat-topped radiation pattern in a far field by a mutual interaction with the surrounding dielectric ring. Therefore, the design parameters of the dielectric ring and the MDAS structure are important design parameters for shaping a flat-topped radiation pattern. The proposed antenna used twelve multi-layered disk array elements and a Teflon material with a dielectric constant of 2.05. An antenna operated at 10 GHz$(9.6\sim10.4\;GHz)$ was designed in order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed antenna structure. The commercial simulator of CST Microwave $Studio^{TM}$, which was adapted to a 3-D antenna structure analysis, was used for the simulation. The antenna breadboard was also fabricated and its electrical performance was measured in an anechoic antenna chamber. The measured results of the antenna breadboard with a flat-topped radiation pattern were found to be in good agreement with the simulated one. The MDAS-DR antenna gain measured at 10 GHz was 11.18 dBi, and the MDAS-DR antenna was capable of shaping a good flat-topped radiation pattern with a beam-width of about $40^{\circ}$, at least within a fractional bandwidth of 8.0 %.
