In this paper, we present an implemented serial 40-Gb/s receiver optical subassembly (ROSA) module by employing a proposed TO-CAN package and flexible printed circuit board (FPCB). The TO-CAN package employs an L-shaped metal support to provide a straight line signal path between the TO-CAN package and the FPCB. In addition, the FPCB incorporates a signal line with an open stub to alleviate signal distortion owing to an impedance mismatch generated from the soldering pad attached to the main circuit board. The receiver sensitivity of the ROSA module measures below -9 dBm for 40 Gb/s at an extinction ratio of 7 dB and a bit error rate of $10^{-12}$.

This paper presents a design and analysis of electromechanical sigma-delta modulator for MEMS gyroscope, which enables us to control the proof mass and to obtain an exact digital output without additional A/D conversion. The system structure and the circuit realization of the sigma-delta modulation are simpler than those of the analog sensing and feedback circuit. Based on the electrical sigma-delta modulator theory, a compensator is designed to improve the closed loop resolution of the sensor. With the designed compensator, we could obtain enhanced closed-loop performances of the gyroscope such as larger bandwidth, lower noise, and digital output comparing with the results of analog open-loop system.

New photovoltaic donor materials, 4,4'-(2,2'-bithiazole-5,5'-diyl)bis(N,N-diphenylbenzenamine) (BDT) and 4-(2,2'-bithiazol-5-yl)-N,N-diphenylbenzenamine (BT), were synthesized. A solution processable triphenylamine-containing bithiazole (BDT and BT) was blended with a [6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$ butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) acceptor to study the performance of small-molecule-based bulk heterojunction (BHJ) photovoltaic devices. Optimum device performance was achieved after annealing, for device with a BDT/PCBM ratio of 1:4. The open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, and power conversion efficiency of the device with the aforementioned BDT/PCBM ratio were 0.51 V, 4.10 $mA\;cm^{-2}$, and 0.68%, respectively, under simulated AM 1.5 solar irradiation (100 $mW\;cm^{-2}$).

The electrical and photovoltaic properties of single junction silicon quantum dot solar cells are investigated. A prototype solar cell with an effective area of 4.7 $mm^2$ showed an open circuit voltage of 394 mV and short circuit current density of 0.062 $mA/cm^2$. A diode model with series and shunt resistances has been applied to characterize the dark current-voltage data. The photocurrent of the quantum-dot solar cell was found to be strongly dependent on the applied voltage bias, which can be understood by consideration of the conduction mechanism of the activated carriers in the quantum dot imbedded material.

The $TiO_2$ nanofiber doped $TiO_2$ electrode area applied to dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs). The mixtures of $TiO_2$ nanofiber to $TiO_2$ photoelectrode has larger surface area than $TiO_2$ photoelectrode. In this research added 2.5, 5 and 10wt% $TiO_2$ nanofibers and the optimum condition of 5 wt% $TiO_2$ nanofiber's high surface area contributing the improvement of short-circuit photocurrent. The open-circuit voltage was 0.7V and solar energy conversion efficiency was 5.4%.

The metallization is the key to determining cell costs, call performance, and cell and system reliabiltiy. The Burled Contact Solar Cell (BCSC) was specifical1y desinged to be compatible tilth low cost, mass production techniques and avoid the conventional metallization problem. By using electroless plating trchniqeu, we performed this metallization inexpensively and reliabley, This paper presents the details of the optimization procedure of metallization schemes on laser grooved cell surface Commercially available Ni ,Cu, and Ag plating solutions were applied for the cell metallization. The application of those solutions on the buried contact front metalization has resulted in an cell efficiency of 18.5% The cell parameters are an open circuit voltage of 651 mV, short circuit current density of 38.6 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and fill factor of 73.5%.

Effects of Ga contents of CIGS absorber layer on the performance of thin films solar cells were investigated. As Ga content increased, the grain size of CIGS films decreased presumably because Ga diffusion during 2nd stage of co-evaporation process is more difficult than In diffusion. Performances of corresponding solar cell show systematic dependence on Ga content in which open circuit voltage increases and short circuit current and fill factor decrease as Ga contents increases. At a optimal condition of Ga/(In+Ga)=0.27, the solar cell shows a conversion efficiency of 15.6% with $V_{OC}$ of 0.625 V, $J_{SC}$ of 35.03 mA/$cm^2$ and FF of 71.3%.

결정질 실리콘 태양전지에서 전극 형성 공정은 Voc(Open-circuit voltage), Isc(Short-circuit current), Rser(Series resistance), Rshunt(Shunt resistance), FF(Fill factor) 특성에 영향을 주기 때문에 매우 중요하다. 하지만 paste와 선 공정에서의 조건에 따라 특성이 바뀌기 때문에 소성 공정을 최적화하기는 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 Gravure Off-set printing 방식을 이용하여 결정질 실리콘 기판 표면에 미세 전극 형성 공정을 하고 소성 조건 최적화를 위해 peak 온도와 ramp-up 속도를 변화시켜 각 조건별 특성을 비교하였다. Peak 온도가 커질수록, contact resistance의 감소에 따라 Rser가 줄어들었다. 본 연구를 통해 Voc는 619mV, FF는 77.9%로 측정되는 Gravure Off-set 태양전지에 최적화된 소성 공정 조건을 확보하였다.

Bearingless motors are the rotational electric machine which utilize a common magnetic structure for rotation and magnetic suspension. Since the bearing function is combined with the motor, the shaft length can be shortened resulting in higher critical speeds. Relationship between suspension force and current of bearingless motor is clearly derived by prior research. However, relationship between displacement of rotor and suspension force is not precisely defined. In this paper, we present model of bearingless motor describing the radial force variation due to the movement of the rotor. Using a distributed magnetic circuit and maxwell stress tensor, we derived a mathematical expression for the radial force. For a slotless bearingless motor, we are able to find an analytical model presented in the form of stiffness. For a slotted motor, we can compute the stiffness by semi-analytical analysis. This model is validated by a finite-element-analysis.

Lately, the demand for electrical power has been significantly increased. As a result a power transmission system has been improved. On the other hand fault current increased more than past. Superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is one of the solutions to limit fault current. However, SFCL's research has not advanced in a power transmission system fully. Therefore, we studied effect of SFCL in a power transmission system. The power distribution system is open-loop circuit, but a power transmission system is closed-loop system. Consequently, Fault current in a power transmission system is larger than fault current in a power distribution system. we exerimented a simple closed-loop power transmission system circuit.
