A limitation of oxide cathode is the high current density, caused by low electrical conductivity of an emitter layer. This limitation can be overcome by increasing the conductivity, and uniform dispersion of Ni powder and pore agent could be achieved by using the screen-printing method. This new cathode has shown not only high current density reliability but also improved performance characteristics and as such given the name "Multi-Function cathode". It is expected to be a good replacement of the impregnated cathode.

Ni-rich layered oxides cathode has recently gained attention as an advanced cathode material due to their applicable energy density. However, as the Ni component in the layered site is increased, the high reactivity of Ni⁴⁺ results in parasitic reaction associated with decomposing electrolyte, which leads to a rapid decreasing the lifespan of the cell. The electrolyte additive triallyl borate (TAB) improves interfacial stability, leading to a stable cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) layer on the LNCM83 cathode. A multi-functionalized TAB additive can produce a uniformly distributed CEI layer via electrochemical oxidation, which implies an increase in long-term cycling performance. After 100 cycles at elevated temperature, the cell tested by 0.75 TAB retained 88.3% of its retention ratio, whereas the cell performed by TAB-free electrolyte retained 64.1% of its retention. Once the TAB additive formed CEI layers on the LNCM83 cathode, it inhibited the decomposition of carbonate-based solvents species in addition to the dissolution of transition metal components from the cathode. The addition of TAB to LNCM83 cathode material is believed to be a promising way to increase the electrochemical performance.

In order to improve the power efficiency of multi-layer organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), electron injection into ETL(electron transport layer) from cathode at the interface between ETL and cathode was enhanced by interposing a proper electron injection layer at the interface. The HTL(hole transport layer) and ETL materials used were N, N'diphenyl- N, N' - bis(3-methylphenyl-1, 1'- biphenyl - 4, 4 'diamine (TPD) and tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) respectively. Cathodes using co-evaporated Al-CsF, Al-KF, and Al-NaF composites are adopted to enhance the electrical and optical properties of OLEDs. OLEDs with alkaline metal-doped cathode show a luminance of as high as 35,000 cd/$m^2$, and external quantum efficiency about 1.35 %. In addition, they show higher power efficiency at all bias conditions and good reproducibility.

A low-cost, large area, random, maskless texturing scheme independent of crystal orientation is expected to have significant impact on terrestrial photovoltaic technology. We investigated silicon surface microstructures formed by reactive ion etching (R IE) in Multi-Hollow cathode system. Desirable texturing effect has been achieved when radio-frequency (rf) power of about 20 Watt per one hollow cathode glow is applied for our RF Multi -Hollow cathode system. The black silicon etched surface shows almost zero reflectance in the visible region as well as in near IR region. The etched silicon surface is covered by columnar microstructures with diameters from 50 to 100 nm and depth of about 500 nm. We have successfully achieved 11.7 % efficiency of mono-crystalline silicon solar cell and 10.2 % for multi-crystalline silicon solar cell.

본 연구에서는 차세대 디스플레이 소자로 각광을 받고 있는 유기발광 소자의 전기적인 특성을 해석적으로 접근하였다. 기본적인 OLED의 동작 메카니즘은 일함수(work function)가 낮은 음극(cathode) 전극으로부터 주입된 전자(electron)와 양극(anode) 전극으로 주입된 정공(hole)이 수송층을 지나 발광층으로 유입되어 여기상태(exciton state)를 거치며 재결합함으로써 발광되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 음극과 양극을 통해 들어오는 수송자(carrier)들이 원활한 전자-정공 쌍(electron - hole pair)을 이루기 위해 다층 박막 구조로 소자를 제작하여 높은 에너지 장벽을 완만하게 만들고 또한 박막의 두께를 조절하여 정공과 전자의 이동도 밸런스(balance)를 맞추어 수송자-전자와 정공-들이 수송층(CTL : carrier transport layer)을 통해 발광층(EML : emitting material layer)으로 주입을 용이하게 만든다 따라서 본 논문에서는 유기 발광소자의 최적의 발광특성을 얻기 위해서는 수치 해석을 통한 가장 높은 발광 효율을 가지게되는 박막의 두께를 예측하고 예측된 유기발광소자의 수치해석 값이 실제 제작된 소자의 특성 값과 일치하여 타당성이 있음을 증명하고자 한다.

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) have received considerable attention because of the advantages of high effiiciency, low pollution, cogeneration application and excellent integration with simplified reformer In this paper, we reported development of anode-tubular SOFC by wet process. For making tubular cell, Ni-cermet YSZ anode tube was fabricated using extrusion process, and YSZ electrolyte layer and LSM-YSZ composite, LSM, LSCF cathode layer were coated onto the anode supported tube using slurry dipping process and sintered by co-firing process. By using this tubular cell, we fabricated single cell consisted of the various cathode layers and 4 cell stack with an effective area of $75 cm^2$ per single cell, and evaluated their performance characteristics.

본 논문에서는 광전 음극 이미지 센서로 사용될 수 있는 광소자용 재료로 III-V 족 화합물 반도체인 GaAs/AlGaAs 다층 구조를 LPE(Liquid Phase Epitaxy) 방법에 의해 성장하였다. n형 GaAs 기판 위에 수십 nm의 GaAs 완충층을 형성 한 후 Zn가 도핑된 p-AlGaAs 에칭 정지 층(etching stop layer)과 Zn가 도핑된 p-GaAs 층 그리고 Zn가 도핑된 p-AlGaAs 층을 성장하였다. 성장된 시료의 특성을 조사하기 위하여 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 이차이온질량분석기(SIMS) 그리고 홀(Hall) 측정 장치 등을 이용하여 GaAs/AlGaAs 다층 구조를 분석하였다. 그 결과 $1.25mm{\times}25mm$의 성장 기판에서 거울면(mirror surface)을 가지는 p-AlGaAs/p-GaAs/p-AlGaAs 다층 구조를 확인할 수 있었으며, Al 조성은 80 %로 측정 되었다. 또한 p-GaAs층의 캐리어 농도는 $8{\times}10^{18}/cm^2$ 범위까지 조절할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터 LPE 방법에 의해 성장된 p-AlGaAs/p-GaAs/AlGaAs 다층 구조는 광전 음극 이미지 센서의 소자로서 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Organic EL has been expected to adopt to a new styles of technology that make flat display after Tang & Vanslyke made food electric luminescence device in late 1980s. Their studies based on multi layer structure that consists of emitting layer and carrier transporting layer using proper organic material. In this study we made multi layer device using $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$ as a luminescence material by PVD and investigate luminous properties of each device. But oxidization of organic layer by ITO, energy walls in both pole interface, contaminations of ITO surface, importance of protecting membrane, diffusive dimming of light to cathode organic layer, these causes of degradations are common facts of a macromolecule and micromolecule. We think these degradation caused by the impact of heat and electro-chemical factor, bulk effect and interface phenomenon, and raise a question.
