A fuel cell is an electrochemical device in which the energy of a chemical reaction is converted directly into electricity. By combining hydrogen fuel with oxygen from air, electricity is formed, without combustion of any form. Water and heat are the only by-products when hydrogen is used as the fuel source. Fuel cell stack consists of multi-layered unit cells. A unit cell consists of MEA and bipolar plates. The end plate of fuel cell stack should give a uniform distributed pressure to multi unit cell layers so as to reduce the contact resistance and to prevent the leakage of reactant gases and the damage of multi layer components. The current end plate is redundantly large and heavy. It makes the power per unit volume reduced. Topology optimization of end plate is conducted for mass reduction and enhancement of bending rigidity. The evaluation of the current design and the recommendation for the future design is remarked.

We have investigated activation phenomena of implanted ions on silicon wafers using microwave(2.45GHz). It is found that the higher concentration of impurities makes the better activation effects by microwave annealing. We have exposed poly-Si TFTs by microwave in order to anneal and improved the device performance. Microwave activates source/drain ions and lowers the contact resistance so that the current of the poly-Si TFTs increases. In addition, the leakage current of hydrogen passivated poly-Si TFTs is decreased after microwave annealing, due to the diffusion of hydrogen ions and curing the defects in the poly-Si active channel.

There has been an increasing need for substitute energy development due to the dry up of the fossil fuel and environmental problems. Among the substitute energy under consideration, producing hydrogen from water without the accompanying release of carbon has become a promising technology. Also, Iodine-Sulfur (IS) thermochemical water decomposition is one of the promising processes that can produce hydrogen efficiently using the high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) as an energy source capable of supplying heat at over 1000. In this study, to effect an initiating events identification of the IS process, Master Logic Diagram (MLD) was used and 9 initiating events that cause a leakage of the chemical material were identified.

Parylene coating was adopted on CdZnTe (CZT) detector as a mechanical protection layer after wet passivation with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and ammonium fluoride (NH₄F). Wet chemical passivant lose their effectiveness when exposed to the ambient conditions for a long time. Parylene coating could protect the effectiveness of passivation, by mechanically blocking the exposure to the ambient conditions. Stability of CZT detector was tested with the measurement of leakage current density and response to radio-isotopes. When the enough thickness of parylene (>100 ㎛) is adopted, parylene is a promising protection layer thereby ensuring the performance and long-term stability of CZT detectors.

Interest and demand for hydrogen sensors are increasing in the field of H₂ leakage detection during storage/transport/use and detection of H₂ dissolved in transformer oil for safety issues as well as in the field of breath analysis for non-invasively diagnosing a number of disease states for a healthy life. In this study, various ZnO-based sensors were synthesized by controlling the reduction in crystallite size, decoration of Pt nanoparticles, doping of electron donating atoms, and doping of various atoms with different ionic radii. The sensing response of the various prepared ZnO-based nanoparticles and quantum dots (QDs) for 10 ppm H₂ was investigated. Among the samples, the smallest-sized (3.5 nm) In³⁺-doped ZnO QDs showed the best sensing response, which is superior to those in previously reported hydrogen sensors based on semiconducting metal oxides. The higher sensing response of In-doped ZnO QDs is attributed to the synergic effects of the increased number of oxygen vacancies, higher optical band gap, and larger specific surface area.

In Na-base Battery for ESS, ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ and metal bonding was used to prevent direct reaction between electrolyte and electrode. The hard metal was metalized at $1600^{\circ}C$ in a flowing hydrogen gas for high bonding strength. In this study, instead of hard metal metalizing, Ni was plated on ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ by electroless Ni plating technique and then bonded with metal. To enhance the bonding strength, surface of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ was treated with $H_3PO_4$. The effects of strength and leakage of joining as a function of acid treatment time on ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ are described.

본 연구는 기존의 CNG충전소에 복합으로 수소충전소를 건설하는 형태의 수소-CNG 복합충전소에 대한 정량적 위험성평가를 수행하였다. 수소충전소와 CNG충전소에서 발생할 수 있는 사고시나리오를 도출하고 각 시나리오에 대한 사고발생빈도를 고려하여 개인적, 사회적 위험도를 계산하였다. 위험성평가 결과 사회적 위험도는 허용가능 범위에 들어 왔으나, 개인적 위험도에 있어서는 일부 지역에서 허용범위를 벗어나는 구간이 발생하였고, 위험성기여도 분석을 통해 고위험요소를 발굴하였다. 수소-CNG 복합충전소에서는 CNG 저장용기, 압축기, 제어 판넬에서 대규모 누출이 발생할 경우 높은 위험도를 보이게 되며 충전소 전체 위험도의 약 88%를 기여하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 고 위험요소에 대하여는 주기적이고 집중적인 안전관리가 이루어져야 한다.

수소는 지구 온난화의 주범인 온실가스(GHG) 배출을 감소시키고 선박용 친환경 연료로서 대두되고 있다. 수소는 가연 하한계(Lower Flammability Limit, LFL)가 4 ~ 75 %이고 폭발 위험성이 큰 물질이다. 그래서 선박용으로 사용되려면 누출에 대비한 안전성이 충분히 확보되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 수소탱크 저장실에서 수소 누출이 발생한 경우, 급·배기구의 면적 변화가 환기 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 급·배기구의 면적은 1A = 740 mm × 740 mm이며 저장실 표면에 크기 및 위치 변경이 쉽도록 설정하였다. CFD 상용 소프트웨어인 ANSYS CFX ver 18.1을 이용하여 급·배기구의 면적을 1A, 2A, 3A, 5A로 변경하였고, 면적 변화에 따른 저장실 내의 수소 몰분율을 분석하였다. 그 결과 급기구 면적이 배기구 면적 증가에 비해 누출 수소의 농도를 더 감소시켰으며 단일 급기구보다 최소 2A 이상에서 환기 성능이 향상되었다. 급기구의 면적이 증가할수록 수소 층화가 저장실 상부부터 균일하게 형성되었지만 LFL 범위는 벗어나 있었다. 그러나 배기구는 면적을 단순히 증가하는 것만으로는 환기 성능에 미치는 영향은 미비하였다.

본 연구는 실리콘 기판과 실리콘 산화막 사이의 계면 트랩 밀도와 게이트 누설 전류를 조사하여, Metal-Oxide-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon (MONOS) 메모리 소자의 계면 트랩 특성의 수소-질소 열처리 효과를 조사하였다. 고속열처리 방법으로 850도에서 30초 동안 열처리한 MONOS 샘플들을 질소 가스와 수소-질소 혼합 가스를 사용하여 450도에서 30분 동안추가 퍼니스 열처리 공정을 수행하였다. 열처리 하지 않은 것, 질소, 수소-질소로 열처리 한 세 개의 샘플 중에서, 커패시터-전압 측정 결과로부터 수소-질소 열처리 샘플들이 가장 적은 계면 트랩 밀도를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 전류-전압 측정 결과에서, 수소-질소 열처리 소자의 누설전류 특성이 개선되었다. 위의 실험 결과로부터, 수소-질소 혼합 가스로 추가 퍼니스 열처리의해 실리콘 기판과 산화막 사이의 계면 트랩 밀도를 상당히 줄일 수 있었다.

Bases have been used in order to prevent the leakage of bleachingagents through dentinal tubules in bleached teeth. But the proximal surfaces where the actual resorption takes place havenot been protected. The purpose of this study was to compare the conventional basing method with the basing of the labial and two proximal surfaces to the cementoenamel junction. The bases were placed after conventional root canal treatment. Group I: 2mm thickness bases were placed to the level of labial cementoenamel junction line. Group II : 2mm thickness bases were placed to the level of all c-e J lines including cervical area. Control : No bases were placed. After placement of sodium perborate and 30% hydrogen peroxide mixtureinto the teeth, the changes of pH were measured. The results were as follows. 1. Group II showed smaller leakage of bleaching agents and was statistically significant difference compared to Group I.(p<0.05) 2. Group I showed no statistically significant difference compared to the control group. (p>0.05) 3. There were no significant among the upper and lower teeth groups in each group and between the groups.(p>0.05). According to the above results, it was considered that basing of the labial and proximal surfaces to the cementoenamel junction can reduce the leakage of bleaching agents during bleaching procedure of pulplessteeth.
