The conduction characteristics in Oriented polypropylene (OPP) film were studied over electric field intensities between 10 M/V m and 300 M/V m . The range of the conduction characteristics was divided in to five regions with increasing field intensity. Particularly, in the region from 70 Mb/m to 82 MV/m voltage-controlled negative resistance was displayed. In the negative resistance region current oscillations were also observed the negative resistance characteristics could by explaine by Gibbons theory.

Generally, power factor correction (PFC) techniques play an important role in the power supply technology. Many new circuit topologies and control strategies for PFC have been proposed. Among them, the brideless PFC (BPFC) reduces the number of switching devices and the losses and improves the power density as well. Moreover, by implementing the improved topology in the discontinous conduction mode (DCM) it ensures almost unity power factor in a simple and effective manner. In the DCM operation gives additional advantages such as zero-current turn-on in the power switches, zero-current turn-off in the output diode and reduces the complexity of the control circuitry. In this paper, a new control strategy for the BPFC is proposed. Also, the performance of the proposed system is demonstrated through experiments.

본 논문에서는 PSR(Primary Side Regulator)에 적용 가능한 새로운 방식의 부하 전류 예측 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 부하 전류 예측 방식은 DCM(Discontinuous Conduction Mode) 및 BCM(Boundary Conduction Mode) 동작만이 가능하다. 하지만 제안된 방식은 Power Balance Rule을 적용한 간단한 알고리즘을 통해 CCM(Continuous Conduction Mode) 동작에서도 정확한 부하 전류 예측이 가능하다. 따라서 높은 출력을 요구하는 어플리케이션에서 고효율 달성에 유리하고, CC(Constant Current) 제어가 우수하다. 제안 알고리즘의 우수성과 신뢰성 검증을 위하여 12W급 플라이백 컨버터의 시작품을 제작하였고, 이를 이용한 실험 결과를 바탕으로 타당성을 확인한다.

The main fault in this interface is that power cable insulating materials are mainly composed of a double layered structure, XLPE/FPDM laminates in cable joint. In this parer, we instituted the interface of XLPE/EPDM laminates and then investigated the breakdown and conduction characteristics as a function of heat treatment time. The results showed that conduction current was influenced by volatile crosslinking by-products which remained inside the insulating material during the production of XLPE and EPDM, especially during heat treatment process. And conduction current of XLPE/Oil 12500cSt/EPDM was more stable than XLPE/Grease/EPDM from the long heat treatment time. AC breakdown strength of silicone oil itself from the heat treatment was changed during the 4∼12 hour heat treatment time.

In order to investigate the characteristics of resistance and conduction of vulcanized styrene butadiene rubber (SBR)/ carbon black (CB) composites, surface/ volume resistivity, point to point resistance, decay time, and electrical conduction experiments with four different kinds of non-conductive carbon black were measured. When about 50phr of carbon black were loaded in SBR, all resistivites suddenly decreased and critical region (Rc) was shown. Current densities of SBR/CB composites showed critical point (Pc) and increased with the electric fields. Electrical conduction mechanisms of SBR/CB composites could be considered as the ohmic conduction at low electric fields and the space charge limited conduction (SCLC) at high electric fields, respectively.

This paper studies the influence of temperature on electrical resistivity in ${\alpha}-InAs$ thin films between 30 K-2K based on the analysis of Mott VRH model and ES VRH model. The effect of the interactions between electrons at lower temperature must be considered, therefore, ES VRH conduction will dominate mechanism, and the crossover from Mott to ES VRH conduction is observed about 7 K. Based on available experiment data and VRH conduction model, the parameters of VRH conduction are determined. And the calculated values of $T_C$ are consistent with the experimental results. In addition, $R_M/{\xi}$, ${\Delta}_M/kT$, $R_{ES}/{\xi}$ and ${\Delta}_{ES}/kT$ are satisfied with the validity of Mott and ES models. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of resistivity at low temperature obeys a universal scaling law, which well describes the overall temperature range of VRH conduction. However, the values of $T^{\prime}_M$ from the universal function are two order of magnitudes lower than $T_M$ deduced from fitting experiment.

In this paper, a new three-phase interleaved isolated high efficiency boost dc-dc converter with active clamp is proposed. The converter is capable of increased power transfer due to its three-phase power configuration, and it reduces the rms current per phase, thus reducing conduction losses. Further, interleaved operation of three-phase boost converter reduces overall ripple current, which is imposed into fuel cells and realizes smaller sized filter components, increasing effective operating frequency and leading to higher power density. Each output current of three-phase boost converter is combined by the three-phase transformer and flows in the continuous conduction mode by the proposed three-phase PWM strategy. An efficiency of above 96% is mainly achieved by reducing conduction losses and switching losses are reduced by the action of active clamp branches, as well. The proposed converter and three-phase PWM strategy are analyzed, simulated and implemented in hardware. Experimental results are obtained on a 500 W prototype unit, with all of the design verified and analyzed.

In this work, simultaneous measur of space charge and conduction current was c out in LDPE with air gap by Pulsed-Electro-Aco Method. Also, effect of long time charging at con electric field on the formation of space charge conduction was investigated. From the experim results. we knew that the homo space charge formed near the dielectric surfaces and moving the bulk of dielectric as the electric field elevated. This was related with the deep traps b carriers and de trapping by Poole-field lowering conduction current was coincident with the Pool emission. From the long time charging experimen obtained the results that the negative space was moving into the dielectric bulk as the cha continued and the positive space charge accumulated at upper surface of LDPE.

To reduce the lateral conduction loss of thin-film-processed cathodes, the microstructure of the thin-film cathode is engineered to contain a denser bridging layer in the middle. By doing so, the characteristic crack-like pores that separate the cathode domains in thin-film-processed cathodes and hamper lateral conduction are better connected and, as a result, the sheet resistance of the cathode is effectively reduced by a factor of 5. This induces suppression of the lateral conduction loss and expansion of the effective current collecting area; the cell performance is improved by more than 30%.
