Lead sulfide (PbS) Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are promising material for the photovoltaic device due to its various outstanding properties such as tunable band-gap, solution processability, and infrared absorption. More importantly, PbS CQDs have large exciton Bohr radius of 20 nm due to the uniquely large dielectric constants that result in the strong quantum confinement. To exploit desirable properties in photovoltaic device, it is essential to fabricate a device exhibiting stable performance. Unfortunately, the performance of PbS NQDs based Schottky solar cell is considerably degraded according to the exposure in the air. The air-exposed degradation originates on the oxidation of interface between PbS NQDS layer and metal electrode. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the stability of Schottky junction device by inserting a passivation layer. We investigate the effect of insertion of passivation layer on the performance of Schottky junction solar cells using PbS NQDs with band-gap of 1.3 eV. Schottky solar cell is the simple photovoltaic device with junction between semiconducting layer and metal electrode which a significant built-in-potential is established due to the workfunction difference between two materials. Although the device without passivation layer significantly degraded in several hours, considerable enhancement of stability can be obtained by inserting the very thin LiF layer (<1 nm) as a passivation layer. In this study, LiF layer is inserted between PbS NQDs layer and metal as an interface passivation layer. From the results, we can conclude that employment of very thin LiF layer is effective to enhance the stability of Schottky junction solar cells. We believe that this passivation layer is applicable not only to the PbS NQDs based solar cell, but also the various NQDs materials in order to enhance the stability of the device.

The service demands of railway vehicles have become severe in recent years due to a general increase in operating speeds. It is very important to evaluate the fracture mechanics characteristics with respect to high-speed train wheel. In the present study, fracture mechanics characterization tests were carried out in accordance with various wheel materials. The result shows that fracture mechanics characteristic should be considered in the design code of the wheel materials.

In this study a new design concept of the Fabry-Perot filter, constructed with an anisotropic space layer and a couple of isotropic mirrors, was proposed based on the Maxwell equations and the characteristic matrix method. The single- and double-cavity Fabry-Perot filters were designed, and their optical properties were investigated with a developed software package. In addition, the dependence of the transmittance and phase shift for two orthogonal polarization states on the column angle of the anisotropic space layer and the incidence angle were discussed. We demonstrated that the polarization state of electromagnetic waves and phase shifts can be modulated by exploiting an anisotropic space layer in a polarization F-P filter. Birefringence of the anisotropic space layer provided a sophisticated phase modulation with varied incidence angles over a broad range, resulting in a wide-angle phase shift. This new concept would be useful for designing optical components with isotropic and anisotropic materials.

This study aimed to develop models of sulfate diffusion and ettringite content profile in cement paste for the predication of the damage behavior in cement paste subject to external sulfate. In the models, multiphase reaction equilibrium between ions in pore solution and solid calcium aluminates phases and the microstructure changes in different positions of cement paste were taken into account. The distributions of expansive volume strain and expansion stress in cement paste were calculated based on the ettringite content profile model. In addition, more sulfate diffusion tests and SEM analyses were determined to verify the reliability and veracity of the models. As the results shown, there was a good correlation between the numerical simulation results and experimental evidences. The results indicated that the water to cement ratio (w/c) had a significant influence on the diffusion of sulfate ions, ettringite concentration profile and expansion properties in cement paste specimens. The cracking points caused by ettringite growth in cement paste specimens were predicted through numerical methods. According to the simulation results, the fracture of cement paste would be accelerated when the specimens were prepared with higher w/c or when they were exposed to sulfate solution with higher concentration.

기존의 멀티스케일 유한요소법(Multiscale finite element, FE² )은 거시 스케일의 모든 적분점에서 대표 체적요소(representative volume element, RVE)의 미시 경계치 문제를 반복적으로 계산하기 때문에 긴 해석 시간과 많은 데이터 저장 공간을 필요로 한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서 평균장 균질화 데이터 기반 멀티스케일 해석 기법을 개발하였다. 데이터 기반 전산역학(data-driven computational mechanics, DDCM) 해석은 변형률-응력 데이터 셋을 직접적으로 사용하는 모델-프리(model-free)접근 방식이다. 멀티스케일 해석을 수행하기 위해, 평균장 균질화(mean-field homogenization)를 활용하여 복합재의 미세구조에 대한 변형률-응력 데이터베이스(database)를 효율적으로 구축하고, 이를 기반으로 데이터 기반 전산역학 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 개발한 멀티 스케일 해석 프레임워크(framework)를 예제에 적용하여, 초탄성(hyperelasticity) 복합재의 미세 구조를 고려한 데이터 기반 전산역학 시뮬레이션 결과를 확인하였다. 따라서, 데이터 기반 전산역학 접근 방식을 활용한 멀티스케일 해석기법은 다양한 재료 및 구조에 적용될 수 있으며, 멀티스케일 해석 연구 및 응용 가능성을 열어줄 것으로 기대된다.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is an application area of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) which usually needs high data communication rate to transfer a large amount of monitoring data. Traditional sink node can only process data from one communication channel at the same time because of the single radio chip structure. The sink node constitutes a bottleneck for constructing a high data rate SHM application giving rise to a long data transfer time. Multi-channel communication has been proved to be an efficient method to improve the data throughput by enabling parallel transmissions among different frequency channels. This paper proposes an 8-radio integrated sink node design method based on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and the time synchronization mechanism for the multi-channel network based on the proposed sink node. Three experiments have been performed to evaluate the data transfer ability of the developed multi-radio sink node and the performance of the time synchronization mechanism. A high data throughput of 1020Kbps of the developed sink node has been proved by experiments using IEEE.805.15.4.
