Nitrogen and phosphorus ions were implanted into ZnO thin film fabricated by pulsed laser deposition. ion implanted ZnO thin films were annealed from $700^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$ using rapid thermal annealing process. The electron concentration was changed form $10^{20}$ to $10^{18}/cm^3$. Effect of nitrogen and phosphorus in ZnO thin films was certified and the structural and optical properties of nitrogen and phosphorus doped ZnO thin films depending on concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus were investigated.

The purpose of this study is to manufacture and test a thermoelectric generator which converts unused energy from close-at-hand sources, such as garbage incineration heat and industrial exhaust, to electricity. A manufacturing process and the properties of a thermoelectric generator are discussed before simulating the thermal stress and thermal properties of a thermoelectric module located between an aluminum tube and alumina plate. We can design the thermoelectric modules having the good properties of thermoelectric generation. Resistivity of thermoelectric module for thermoelectric generation consisting of 62 cells was 0.15-0.4$\Omega$ Developed thermoelectric modules can be expected th have better properties than thermoelectric cooling modules above $70^{\circ}C$ in temperature difference between hot and cold ends.

Field-emission characteristics of carbon nanotubes(CNTs), which were grown on conical-type tungsten micro-tips by using an electrophoretic deposition(EPD) method, were examined. The EPD method proved to be convenient to manipulate and arrange CNTs from well dispersed suspensions onto such tip-type substrates. The growth rate of CNTs was proportional to the applied d.c. bias voltage and the process time. It was observed from the Raman study that the EPDproduced CNTs showed better crystal qualities with the Raman intensity ratio( $I_D$/$I_G$) of 0.41-0.42 than the CVD-produced CNTs and their crystal qualities could be further improved by thermal annealing. The electron emitters based on the EPDCNTs showed excellent field emission properties, such as the threshold voltage for electron emission of about 620 V and the maximum emission current of about 345 ${\mu}A$. In addition, the EPD-CNTs exhibited the stable long-term(up to 40 h) emission capability and the emission stability was enhanced by thermal annealing.

In the study, the thermal and optical properties of SiO$_2$-PbO-K$_2$O-Al$_2$O$_3$ g1asses were investigated. According to Ga$_2$O$_3$ addictions, the properties of bulk glass, transition temperature and softening temperature were increased, whereas thermal expansion coefficient was decreased; In the optical properties, refractive index was increased, and IR cut-off wavelength was enlarged from 4.64$\mu\textrm{m}$ to 5.22$\mu\textrm{m}$. But, the optical loss of fiber was decreased.

For the amorphous F $e_{78}$ $B_{13}$S $i_{9-x}$G $e_{x}$ alloy, thermal analysis and measurements of the magnetic properties were carried out. As the content of Ge increased, the crystallization temperature was decreased and the Curie temperature was increased, and the tendencies were almost linear. The core loss of the amorphous alloy for x=1.7, field annealed at optimized condition, was 0.057 W/kg(l.0T, 60Hz), which was about 30% lower than that of no Ge added amorphous alloy (basic composition). Such a low core loss characteristics was thought to be caused by the lower coercive force and good squareness of B-H loop of the alloy.y.y.

In this work, we have investigated the effect of a 30-min thermal anneal at $550^{\circ}C$ on the electrical characteristics of neutron-irradiated 4H-SiC MOSFETs. Thermal annealing can recover the on/off characteristics of neutron-irradiated 4H-SiC MOSFETs. After thermal annealing, the interface-trap density decreased and the effective mobility increased in terms of the on-characteristics. This finding could be due to the improvement of the interfacial state from thermal annealing and the reduction in Coulomb scattering due to the reduction in interface traps. Additionally, in terms of the off-characteristics, the thermal annealing resulted in the recovery of the breakdown voltage and leakage current. After the thermal annealing, the number of positive trapped charges at the MOSFET interface was decreased.

This review examines computational simulations of thermoelectric properties, such as electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity. With increasing computing power and the development of several efficient simulation codes for electronic structure and transport properties calculations, we can evaluate all the thermoelectric properties within the first-principles calculations with the relaxation time approximation. This review presents the basic principles of electrical and thermal transport equations and how they evaluate properties from the first-principles calculations. As a model case, this review presents results on $Bi_2Te_3$ and Si. Even though there is still an unsolved parameter such as the relaxation time, the effectiveness of the computational simulations on the transport properties will provide much help to experimental scientist researching novel thermoelectric materials.

The current research deals with, stability/instability and cylindrical composite nano-scaled shell's resonance frequency filled by graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) under various thermal conditions (linear and nonlinear thermal loadings). The piece-wise GPL-reinforced composites' material properties change through the orientation of cylindrical nano-sized shell's thickness as the temperature changes. Moreover, in order to model all layers' efficient material properties, nanomechanical model of Halpin-Tsai has been applied. A functionally modified couple stress model (FMCS) has been employed to simulate GPLRC nano-sized shell's size dependency. It is firstly investigated that reaching the relative frequency's percentage to 30% would lead to thermal buckling. The current study's originality is in considering the multifarious influences of GPLRC and thermal loading along with FMCS on GPLRC nano-scaled shell's resonance frequencies, relative frequency, dynamic deflection, and thermal buckling. Furthermore, Hamilton's principle is applied to achieve boundary conditions (BCs) and governing motion equations, while the mentioned equations are solved using an analytical approach. The outcomes reveal that a range of distributions in temperature and other mechanical and configurational characteristics have an essential contribution in GPLRC cylindrical nano-scaled shell's relative frequency change, resonance frequency, stability/instability, and dynamic deflection. The current study's outcomes are practical assumptions for materials science designing, nano-mechanical, and micromechanical systems such as micro-sized sensors and actuators.

In order to investigate the electrical conduction properties of polyethylene thin film for power cable with manufacturing methods, the thickness of specimen was the 30, 100[${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$] of LDPE and 200[${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$] of XLPE were manufactured. The experimental condition for conduction properties was measured until the breakdown occurs at temperature ranges from 30 to 110[$^{\circ}C$] and the electric field from 1$\times$10$^3$to 5$\times$10$^{6}$ [V/cm]. As for increase of temperature, the current density of LDPE was increased with constant ratio in low field, but changes with exponential function in high electric field. The tunnel current of pre-breakdown region is shifted toward low field as much as thermal excitation energy. At low electric field, the XLPE showed dominant electrical conduction properties by thermal excitation, and transformation of the electron was resisted by the crystal at high electric field.
