  • Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have attracted significant interest in an interdisciplinary research field for the decades as a next-generation photovoltaic device due to their unique advantages. One of requirements for OPVs having high power conversion efficiency is the favorable energy level alignment between the electrode/organic and organic/organic interfaces to manage the exciton dissociation and improve the charge transport. In this review, strategies to enhance the OPV performance by controlling the energy level alignment are discussed. The insertion of an exciton blocking layer leads to the efficient dissociation of photogenerated excitons at the donor/acceptor interface enhancing the short-circuit current density. The choice of a donor having a high ionization energy and an acceptor having a low electron affinity increases the open-circuit voltage. The insertion of an appropriate work function modifier which reduces the charge injection barrier removes the S-kink in current density-voltage characteristics of OPVs and improves the fill factor. This review would give a valuable guide to design the efficient OPV structure.

  • The EUV wave is a disturbance that has been believed to be the fast-mode (shock) wave, which can propagate passing through magnetic field lines. After the passage of EUV waves, coronal streamers start to show kink-mode oscillations, and the footpoints, i.e., magnetic separatrices, of the oscillating streamers are observed as the so-called stationary front. We compare the stationary front observed by EUV imagers and coronal streamers observed in coronagraphic images. We analyze the successive events occurred in September 2011. We find that the stationary fronts are consistent with the coronal streamer boundaries, and they are located along the boundaries of coronal holes and active regions. Our results confirm that EUV waves are in fact fast-mode waves and demonstrate that the stationary front is a promising tool to probe into the source of slow solar wind that is the boundary of coronal streamers on the solar surface.

  • Transverse magnetohydrodynamic waves often called Alfvénic (or kink) waves have been often theoretically put forward to solve the outstanding problems of the solar corona like coronal heating, solar wind acceleration, and chemical abundance enhancement. Here we report the first spectroscopic detection of Alfvénic waves around a sunspot at chromospheric heights. By analyzing the spectra of the Hα line and Ca II 854.2 nm line, we determined line-of-sight velocity and temperature as functions of position and time. As a result, we identified transverse magnetohydrodynamic waves pervading the superpenumbral fibrils. These waves are characterized by the periods of 2.5 to 4.5 minutes, and the propagation direction parallel to the fibrils, the supersonic propagation speeds of 45 to 145 km s-1, and the close association with umbral oscillations and running penumbral waves in sunspots. Our results support the notion that the chromosphere around sunspots abounds with Alfvénic waves excited by the mode conversion of the upward-propagating slow magnetoacoustic waves.

  • The main geological structure of the Ogcheon belt in the Buunnyeong area, Mungyeong, which consists of three stratigraphic sequences, Joseon and Pyeongan Supergroups and Daedong Group, is characterized by the development of ESE-vergence structural unit (Dangok unit) and WNW-vergence structural units (Samsil and Bugongni units) onto an autochthonous unit (Buunnyeong unit). Three phases of deformation are recognized in this area. The lent phase of deformation coourred under the WNW-ESE compression, forming an upright-open fold (Buunnyeong-I fold) with NNE axial trend in the Buunnyeong unit. The second phase of deformation also under the WNW-ESE compression formed the Dangok, Samsil and Bugongni units, resulting in the further closing of the Buunnyeong-I open fold, the elongation of pebbles in the conglomerate rocks of a basal sequence of the Daedong Group, recumbent folds (Buunnyeong-II fold) and drag folds (Dangok fold) with NNE axial trend in the Buunnyeong and Dangok units, respectively. The third phase of deformation formed kink folds with its axis p1unging subvertically. The first and second phases of deformation took place before and after the deposition of the Daedong Group of the Upper Triassic -Lower Jurassic, respectively. These first two deformation events, which occurred under the same WNW-ESE compressional field, produced the regional NNE trend of geological structure in the Joseon and Pyeongan Supergroups of this area.

  • Copolyester resins for the coil coating process of aluminium and steel strip were synthesized and their thermal properties, molecular weight and solvent solution characteristics were examined. Copolyesters were obtained by two step reactions. The first step was to prepare bishydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET), bishydroxyneopentyl terephthalate (BHNPT), bishydroxyethyl isophthalate (BHEI), bishydroxyneopentyl sebacate (BHNPS), bishydroxyneopentyl adipicate (BHNPA) and bishydroxyethyl adipicate (BHEA) oligomers by esterification reactions. The second step was the polycondensation reaction utilizing those oligomers to obtain relatively high molecular weight copolyesters (Mw = 30,000~59,000 g/mol) as measured by GPC. These copolyesters were amorphous polymers as shown by DSC without $T_m$ peaks probably due to the kink structure introduced by BHET oligomer and relatively large free volume by bulky BHNPT and BHNPS oligomers. The copolyester samples with half of BHET oligomer substituted by BHNPT while keeping BHEI (0.3 mole) and BHNPS (0.1 mole) ratio constant showed glass transition temperature above $40^{\circ}C$ and good solubility in toluene both at low ($-5^{\circ}C$) temperature and room temperature.

  • In order to understand the package crack emanating from the edge of leadframe after the delamination between leadframe and epoxy molding compound in an electronic packaging of surface mounting type, the M-integral and J-integral in fracture mechanics are obtained. The effects of geometry, material properties and molding process temperature on the package crack are investigated taking into account the temperature dependence of the material properties, which simulates a more realistic condition. If the temperature dependence of the material properties is considered the result of analysis conforms with observations that the crack is kinked at between 50 and 65 degree. However, in case of constant material properties at the room temperature it is found that the J-integral is underestimated and the kink crack angle is different form the observation. The effects of the material properties and molding process temperature on J-integral and crack angle are less significant that the chip size for the cases considered here. It is suggested that the geometric factors such as ship size, leadframe size are to be well designed in order to prevent(or control) the occurrence and propagation of the package crack.
