This is paper, a new structure to effectively improve the Vce(sat) voltage and latch-up current in NPT type IGBTs with hole barrier layer and diverter. The hole barrier layer acts as a barrier to prevent the holes from flowing into the p-layer and stores them in the n-layer. And the diverter significantly reduce hole current from flowing into the p-layer and improve latch up current. Analysis on the Breakdown voltage shows identical values compared to existing Conventional IGBT structures. This shows an improvement on Vce(sat) and Latct-up current without lowering other characteristics of the device. The electrical characteristics were studied by MEDICI simulation results.

Herein, we report polyvinyl butyral composites coatings containing various loadings of 72-h bath sonicated hexagonal boron nitride particles (5 ㎛) to enhance barrier properties of coatings. Barrier properties of coatings were determined in 3.5 wt% NaCl after different time periods of immersion via electrochemical techniques such as open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and potentiodynamic polarization test. Coatings containing sonicated hexagonal boron particles exhibited improved corrosion resistance for longer periods of immersion compared to neat coating. We also discussed effects of hexagonal boron nitride on healing properties of polyvinyl butyral. Coatings containing 1.0 wt% loading of sonicated hexagonal boron nitride showed improved long-term barrier properties than coatings with other compositions. The presence of hexagonal boron nitride also affected the healing properties of polyvinyl butyral coatings besides their barrier properties. Such improved barrier properties of composites coatings were attributed to the high aspect ratio, plate-like shape, and electrically insulated nature of the filler.

In this study, the effects of the mesh barrier on the free dispersion of ammonia were numerically investigated under different atmospheric conditions. This study presents the detail and flow feature of the dispersion of ammonia through the mesh barrier on various free stream conditions to decline and limit the toxic danger of the ammonia. It is assumed that the dispersion of the ammonia occurred through the leakage in the pipeline. Parametric studies were conducted on the performance of the mesh barrier by using the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with realizable k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. Numerical simulations of ammonia dispersion in the presence of mesh barrier revealed significant results in a fully turbulent free stream condition. The results clearly show that the flow behavior was found to be a direct result of mesh size and ammonia dispersion is highly influenced by these changes in flow patterns in downstream. In fact, the flow regime becomes laminar as flow passes through mesh barrier. According to the results, the mesh barrier decreased the maximum concentration of the ammonia gas and limited the risk zone (more than 500 ppm) lower than 2 m height. Furthermore, a significant reduction occurs in the slope of the upper boundary of $NH_3$ risk zone distribution at downstream when a mesh barrier is presented. Thus, this device highly restricts the leak distribution of ammonia in the industrial plan.

1,200 V class junction barrier schottky (JBS) diodes and schottky barrier diodes (SBD) were simultaneously fabricated on the same 4H-SiC wafer. The resulting diodes were characterized at temperatures from room temperature to 473 K and subsequently compared in terms of their respective I-V characteristics. The parameters deduced from the observed I-V measurements, including ideality factor and series resistance, indicate that, as the temperature increases, the threshold voltage decreases whereas the ideality factor and barrier height increase. As JBS diodes have both Schottky and PN junction structures, the proper depletion layer thickness, $R_{on}$, and electron mobility values must be determined in order to produce diodes with an effective barrier height. The comparison results showed that the JBS diodes exhibit a larger effective barrier height compared to the SBDs.

Subject of the paper is a particular configuration of overhead line, in which noise barrier structure is used as supports of the catenary instead of standard poles. This configuration is foreseen in case the noise barrier position is in conflict with the poles location. If the catenary is supported by the noise barrier, the motion that the latter undergo due to wave pressure associated to train transit is transmitted to the overhead line, so that potentially it influences the interaction between the catenary itself and the pantograph of the passing train. The paper focuses on the influence of such peculiar configuration on the quality of the current collection of high speed pantograph, for single and double current collection. The study has been carried out first with an experimental investigation on the pressure distribution on noise barrier, both in wind tunnel and with in-field tests. Subsequently a numerical analysis of the dynamics of the barrier subjected to the wave pressure due to train transit has been carried out, and the output of such analysis has been used as input data for the simulation of the pantograph-dynamic interaction at different speeds and with front or rear pantograph in operation. Consideration of structural modifications was then highlighted, in order to reduce the influence on the contact loss percentage.

Recently, the size of Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) carriers has been increasing, in turn increasing the load generated during operation. To handle this load, the thickness of LNG Cargo Containment Systems (CCSs) should be increased. Despite increasing the thickness of LNG CCSs, a secondary barrier is still used in conventional thickness. Therefore, the mechanical performance of the existing secondary barrier should be verified. In this study, tensile test of the secondary barrier was performed to evaluate mechanical properties under several low- and cryogenic-temperature conditions considering LNG environment, and in each fiber direction considering that the secondary barrier is composed of anisotropic composite materials depending on the glass fibers. Additionally, the coefficient of thermal expansion was measured by considering the degradation of the mechanical properties of the secondary barrier caused by the generated thermal stress during periodical unloading. As a result, the mechanical performance of secondary barrier in the Machine Direction (MD) was generally found to be superior than that in the Transverse Direction (TD) owing to the warp interlock structure of the glass fibers.

Symmetric closed-cell type barrier ribs of PDP were formed by capillary molding process using molds prepared by inclined UV lithography process. The effects of inclining angle of barrier ribs on the sintering shrinkage and luminance of panel were examined. The results indicate that the barrier ribs of inclined morphology affect the sintering shrinkage and luminance efficiency significantly.

In this study, water jet etching of aqueous green tape was attempted for processing barrier rib of plasma display panel. This process combines 1) chemical etching between water and aqueous based binder in the tape and 2) mechanical erosion by water jet. Effects of etching parameters such as pressure, temperature and aqueous binder content on the morphology of barrier ribs formed were investigated. The results demonstrated a possibility of processing barrier ribs by water jet etching.
