It was known that properties of superconducting tapes could be influenced by mechanical processing method. In this presentation, the effect of drawing method on the final properties of superconductor tape has been systematically studied. Firstly, BSCCO/Ag tapes have been fabricated via two-stage drawing method and conventional rolling process. The two-stage drawing process consists of circular dies drawing and rectangular dies drawing. Important parameters such as fill factor and critical current values of fully processed superconducting tapes have been evaluated to elucidate the effect of drawing method.

Some analytic results for a solenoid eddy current coil to test nondestructive conducting materials are described in this paper. Normalized impedance of solenoid coil encircling cylindrical conducting tubes or tow-conductor rods is analyzed. Electrical and magnetic properties such as conductivity, permeability and exciting frequency as well as the geometric ones of fill factor or radius ratio of the conductor are also considered. Impedance characteristics of the models obtained by numerical analysis are examined. Validation of the model is carried out using several samples of non-ferromagnetic conducting tubes and 2-conductor rods.

The dependence of the efficiency characteristics of hydrogenated amorphous silicon single junction solar cells on the various intrinsic layer thickness has been investigate in the glass/$SnO_2$:F/p,i,n a-Si:H/Al type of amorphous silicon solar cells by cluster PECVD system. The open circuit voltage, short circuit current, fill factor and conversion efficiency have been measured under AM 1.5 condition. The result of the cell performance was improved about 8.2% due to an increase in the short circuit current.

With the growing need of more effective energy harvesting, solar energy has been sought as one of the prominent candidates among the eco-friendly methods. Although many types of solar cells have been developed, the electronic conversion efficiency is limited by the material's physical properties: solar cells can only harvest solar energy from limited range in solar energy spectrum. To overcome this physical limit, we approached by using the down conversion effect, transforming the high energy photons to low energy photons, to the range the designated solar cell can convert to electronic energy. In our study, we have fabricated GaAs single junction solar cells and applied CdSe quantum dots for down-conversion. We examine the effects of such application on the solar cell efficiancy, fill-factor, JSC, VOC, etc.

본 연구에서는 Carbon nanotube 용액을 brush-painting 시스템을 이용하여 유연성 있는 PET 기판 위에 고품위의 플렉시블 투명전극을 제작하였다. CNT 박막의 두께에 따른 특성을 알아보기 위해 brushing 횟수를 증가시켜 UV/Vis Spectrometry, four-point probe 및 Hall measurement를 이용하여 전기적, 광학적특성을 알아보았다. 최적조건인 bilayer의 CNT 박막은 244 Ohm/sq.의 면 저항과 550 nm에서 68％의 투과도를 얻을 수 있었다. CNT 박막의 기계적 응력에 따른 전기적 안정성을 알아보기 위해 bending test를 진행하였다. 10,000번 구부려도 저항의 변화가 거의 없어 이 박막이 플렉시블한 소자에 적합하다는 것을 알았다. 유기태양전지의 적용 가능성을 알아보기 위해 CNT 박막을 유기태양전지의 anode 층으로 적용하여 1.6％ (VOC: 0.566(V), $J_{SC}$: 7.118(mA/$cm^2$), Fill Factor: 40.49(％))의 효율을 얻어 유기태양전지 소자의 적용 가능성을 알았다. 최종적으로 실험에서 성막된 CNT 박막은 기존의 CVD공정과 같은 복잡한 공정 대신에 쉽고 간편하게 고품위의 flexible brush-painting Carbon nanotube (CNT) 투명전극을 제작 하여 플렉시블한 유기태양전지 소자의 가능성을 알아보았다.

Research on the edge isolation process of typical polycrystalline silicon solar cells was carried out using laser scribing equipment. The voltage-current characteristics of the solar cell before and after laser scribing were analyzed using a solar simulator. Current density and efficiency increased as the fill factor of the solar cell remained constant after the laser scribing process. The efficiency of the solar cell can be increased in a short time by the edge isolation process performed via a laser scribing process. The polycrystalline silicon solar cell was made into a series electrode, and the efficiency of the solar cell increased because the width of the solar cell was narrowed and the active region was widened by the laser scribing process.

In this paper, the temperature characteristics by change the width of teeth and yoke in the stat or parameters were analyzed. An initial model of fill factor 45 [%] was produced. Through the experiment, the validity of the temperature analysis using the thermal equivalent circuit method was verified. So, initial model was selected as basic model. Also, temperature characteristic analysis was performed for each width change of the stator teeth and yoke, and the effects of the width of stator teeth and yoke on the temperature characteristics were analyzed.

Ordering is used to reduce the amount of fill-ins in the Cholesky factor of an symmetric definite matrix. One of most efficient ordering methods is the minimum degree ordering method. In this paper. we propose the two techniques to improve the performance of the minimum degree ordering which are implemented using clique storage structure. One is node absorption which is a generalized version of clique absorption. The other technique is using the lower bounds of degree to suspend the degree updates of nodes. finally, we provide computational results on the problems on NETLIB. These results show that the proposed techniques reduce the number of degree updates and the computational time considerably.

This study investigates the degradation characteristics of different material types of ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyolefin (POE) with combining transparent backsheet. To this end, we fabricated samples with structure of glass/encapsulant/transparent backsheet for each type of encapsulants, and shingled Si modules with the same structure. The samples were then subjected to accelerated test by storing under damp heat condition of 85℃ and 85% RH. As a result, encaplsulant discoloration was observed, which the transmittance of the samples with EVA decreased in a rapid rate than the samples with POE. The discoloration also affected a power degradation of the shingled modules with a reduction of current density, resulting that the module with EVA showed more drop on the efficiency than the modules with POE. Furthermore, corrosion of the soldered ribbon caused by acetic acid produced from the degraded EVA also contributed in fill factor reduction.

This paper proposes an fill-factor algorithm that determines embedding parameters which are needed in optimal attractor reconstruction. For reliability test, using this algorithm, we reconstructs the attractor of numerical chaotic data such as Duffing equation, Lorenz equation and Rossler equation whose embedding parameters are known. Also we reconstructs the attractor of experimental data and evaluates correlation dimension. Experimental data used in this paper are 38 ECG data of AHA(American Heart Association) ECG database. For numerical chaotic data, correlation dimension and Lyapunov exponent of reconstructed attractor are very close to those of attractor using original coordinate system.
