In this paper, we reported the current limiting properties of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL). Our SFCL was patterned in a coil-type on a YBCO film deposited using rf sputtering techniques and was coated with a gold shunt layer in order to disperse the heat generated at hot spots in the YBCO film. Current increased up to 13.5 Apeak at 60 Hz for the voltage of 11.5 Vpeak, which is the minimum quench point, and increased up to 17.6 Apeak at 60 Hz for the voltage of 80 Vpeak. The quench completion time was 5 msec at 11.5 Vpeak and 4 msec at 80 Vpeak respectively. We think that this architecture using coil-type SFCL can be useful for the protection of the power delivery systems from fault currents.

We investigated the quench characteristics of a flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) depending on the methods of the serial and parallel connections between the superconducting elements. The flux-lock type SFCL consists of two coils. The primary coil is wound in parallel to the secondary coil through an iron core, and the secondary coil is connected to the superconducting elements in series and parallel. In this paper, the analyses of voltage, current, and resistance of the superconducting elements connected in serial and parallel were performed to increase the power capacity of the flux-lock type SFCL. A part of the superconducting elements was not quenched in $2{\times}2$ serial connection between the elements and then the power burden of the quenched elements was increased. However the elements with $2{\times}2$ parallel connection was all quenched. This means that the power burden of each superconducting element can be reduced under the same conditions. We found that $2{\times}2$ parallel connection was more profitable for the current limiting effects and the increase of the power capacity.

As an preliminary study for the quench protection of high temperature superconducting (HTS) cable using superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), experimental research was carried out. The test circuit was composed of Bi-2223/Ag HTS tape and a SFCL made of YBCO thin films. In the normal state, the applied current of 56 A, which was critical current of HTS tape, could be flown through the circuit without resistive loss. Increasing the currents, the quench development of both materials was investigated from the voltage signal acquired from the resistance of the quenched superconductor. Up to around 10 times of the critical current was applied to the HTS tape and the current limiting characteristics of SFCL were investigated. In addition, for the finding out the optimal operating condition of SFCL such as the numbers of elements, a shunt resistor was applied to the SFCL and quench characteristics were analyzed as well.

Since Metallo-Porphyrin (MP) is very interesting compound due to its unique electronic and redox properties and it is also chemically and thermally stable, MP has been studied for potential memory and switching devices. In this study, thin films of 5,10,15,20 - Tetrakis - Octadecyloxymethylphenyl - Porphyrin - Zn(II) (Zn-TPP) were prepared by the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method and characterized by using UV/vis absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. It was found that the proper transfer surface pressure for film deposition was 25 mN/m and the limiting area per molecule was $135{\AA}^2$/molecule. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of these films were investigated.

A/F sensor with a sensing and a pumping element, which is made of YSZ(yttria stabilized zirconia) sheets, can be used for the combustion control of lean burn engine. A/F sensor can detect the oxygen partial pressure in more wide range than the other oxygen sensors, such as the limiting current type oxygen sensor and λ-sensor. However this sensor has the disadvantage that the characteristics has been degraded rapidly due to the physical or electrochemical reasons. The blackening phenomenon is known as one of the degradations caused by high voltage biased for oxygen pumping. In this paper, we have studied to analyze the blackening phenomenon by comparing two characteristics between before and after blackening in impedance spectroscopy, and discussed the blackening mechanism.

This paper presents the performance evaluation of an HTS transformer. Numerical calculation by finite element method was used to evaluate the performance. BSCCO-2223 HTS tapes and double pancake winding were adopted in this design. Four double pancake windings were used in total. Among them two windings were connected in series for high voltage winding and two windings are connected in parallel for low voltage winding. Propertied of various type of the winding arrangement were examined. Characteristics of the transformer during the transient which was caused by sudden short were simulated. The current limiting effect, temperature rise and resistance growth of the superconducting winding were shown.

A transcranial magnetic stimulation device is a complicated appliance that employs a switching power device designed for discharging and charging a capacitor to more than 1 kV. For a simple transcranial magnetic stimulation device, this study used commercial power and controlled the firing angle using a Triac power device. AC 220V 60 Hz, the power device was used directly on the tanscranial magnetic stimulation device. The power supply device does not require a current limiting resistance in the rectifying device, energy storage capacitor or discharge circuit. To control the output power of the tanscranial magnetic stimulation device, the pulse repetition rate was regulated at 60 Hz. The change trigger of the Triac gate could be varied from $45^{\circ}$ to $135^{\circ}$. The AVR 182 (Zero Cross Detector) Chip and AVR one chip microprocessor could control the gate signal of the Triac precisely. The stimulation frequency of 50 Hz could be implemented when the initial charging voltage Vi was 1,000 V. The amplitude, pulse duration, frequency stimulation, train duration and power consumption was 0.1-2.2T, $250{\sim}300{\mu}s$, 0.1-60 Hz, 1-100 Sec and < 1 kW, respectively. Based on the results of this study, TMS can be an effective method of treating dysfunction and improving function of brain cells in brain damage caused by ischemia.

The yttrium-barium-copper-oxide (YBCO) coated conductor, which supplement the fault of the existing superconducting current-limit materials YBCO thin film, bismuth-strontium-calcium-copper-oxide(BSCCO) wire and bulk, has been improved its mechanical weakness and has high index; hence, after quench YBCO coated conductor could limit the fault current effectively because of fast resistance occurrence speed. Furthermore, it has wide applicable area as an current limit material because it shows different resistance occurrence tendency by the thickness and kind of stabilization material sputtered on the superconducting layer. Therefore, many researchers are carrying out the study of application of YBCO coated conductor to superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) for making high quality current limit element, based on resistance type. On the other hand, the study for other type except resistance type has been rarely conducted for the application of YBCO coated conductor to SFCL as an current limit element. Consequently, in this study, YBCO coated conductor with different stabilization layer Cu and Stainless steel, is applied to SFCL using iron core and coil, and examine the many index points as an current limit element, such as current limit characteristic, the tendency of resistance occurrence, response time, the temperature trend for stability.
