  • Titanium-doped indium oxide (ITiO) films were prepared on soda-lime glass substrate using a magnetic null discharge (MND) sputter source. The ITiO thin films containing 10 wt.% Ti showed the minimum resistivity of ${\rho}=5.5{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$. The optical transmittance increases from 70% at 450 nm to 80% at 700 nm in visible spectrum. The surface roughness of the sample showed a change from 10 nm to 50 nm. The ITiO film used for TCO layer of DSCs exhibited an energy conversion efficiency of about 3.8 % at light intensity of 100 $mW/cm^2$.

  • CdTe thin-film solar cell technology is well known that it can theoretically improve its conversion efficiency and manufacturing costs compared to the conventional silicon solar cell technology, due to its optical band gap energy (about 1.45eV) for solar energy absorption, high light absorption capability and low cost requirements for producing solar cells. Although the prior studies obtained the high light absorption, CdTe thin film solar cell has not been come up to the sufficient efficiency yet. So, doping method was selected for the improvement of the electrical characteristics in CdTe solar cells. Some elements including Cu, Ag, Cd and Te were generally used for the p-dopant as substitutional acceptors in CdTe thin film. In this study, the sputtering-deposited CdTe thin film was immersed in $AgNO_3$ solution for ion exchange method to dope Ag ions. The effects of immersion temperature and Ag-concentration were investigated on the optical properties and electrical characteristics of CdTe thin film by using Auger electron spectroscopy depth-profile, UV-visible spectrophotometer, and a Hall effect measurement system. The best optical and electrical characteristics were sucessfully obtained by Ag doping at high temperature and concentration. The larger and more uniform diffusion of Ag ions made increase of the Ag ion density in CdTe thin film to decrease the series resistance as well as mede the faster diffusion of light by the metal ions to enhance the light absorption.

  • In a switched reluctance motor drive, it is important to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position; therefore, the position of rotor is an essential information. Although optical encoders or resolvers are used to provide the position information, these sensors are expensive. Moreover, in the high-speed region, switching angles are fluctuated back and forth out of the preset value, which is caused by the sampling period of the microprocessor. In this paper, a low cost analog encoder suitable for practical applications is proposed. And the control algorithm to generate switching signals using a simple digital logic is presented. The validity of the proposed analog encoder with a proper logic controller is verified from the experiments.

  • The correlation between electrical (derivativer) characteristics and electro-optical conversion characteristics of laser diodes has been investigated both theoretically and experimentally with emphasis on the nonideal behavior. Laser diodes are electrically pumped devices with the current resulting from the carrier recombination dynamics, and their junction voltage is given by the separation of the quasi-Fermi levels which are determined by the injected carrier concentration. Thus most of the informaiton related to laser diode operation characteristics is reveraled in the electrical characteristics which are relatively simple to measure with sufficient accuracy. Therefore the measurement of electrical characteristics and their derivatives is a very useful tool of laser diode characteristion.

  • Dye-sensitized solar cells have a FTO/$TiO_2$/Dye/Electrode/Pt counter electrode structure, yet more than a 10% electron loss occurs at each interface. A passivating layer between the $TiO_2$/FTO glass interface can prevent this loss of electrons. In theory, ZnO has excellent electron collecting capabilities and a 3.4 eV band gap, which suppresses electron mobility. FTO glass was coated with ZnO thin films by RF-magnetron sputtering; each film was deposited under different $O_2$:Ar ratios and RF-gun power. The optical transmittance of the ZnO thin film depends on the thickness and morphology of ZnO. The conversion efficiency was measured with the maximum value of 5.22% at an Ar:$O_2$ ratio of 1:1 and RF-gun power of 80 W, due to effective prevention of the electron recombination into electrolytes.

  • We developed a highly efficient organic photovoltaic (OPV) cell with a poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-)-2-carboxylate-2-6-diyl)]:[6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester active layer for harvesting lower-intensity indoor light energy to power various self-powered sensor systems that require power in the microwatt range. In order to achieve higher power conversion efficiency (PCE), we first optimized the thickness of the active layer of the OPV cell through optical simulations. Next, we fabricated an OPV cell with optimized active layer thickness. The device exhibited a PCE of 12.23%, open circuit voltage of 0.66 V, short-circuit current density of 97.7 ㎂/cm2, and fill factor of 60.53%. Furthermore, the device showed a maximum power density of 45 ㎼/cm2, which is suitable for powering a low-power (microwatt range) sensor system.

  • Multilayered films of ITO (In2O3:SnO2 = 9:1)/SiO2 were deposited on soda-lime glass by RF/DC magnetron sputtering at 500℃ to improve the energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The light absorption of the dye was improved by decrease in light reflectance from the surface of the DSSCs by using an ITO film. In order to estimate the optical characteristics and compare them with experimental results, a simulation program named EMP (essential macleod program) was used. EMP results revealed that the multilayered thin films showed high transmittance (approximate average transmittance of 79%) by adjusting the SiO2 layer thickness. XRD results revealed that the ITO and TiO2 films exhibited a crystalline phase with (400) and (101) preferred orientations at 2 θ = 26.24° and 35.18°, respectively. The photocurrent-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the DSSCs were measured under AM 1.5 and 100 mW/cm2 (1 sun) by using a solar simulator. The DSSC fabricated on the ITO film with a 0.1-nm-thick SiO2 film showed a Voc of 0.697 V, Jsc of 10.596 mA/cm2 , FF of 66.423, and calculated power conversion efficiency (ηAM1.5) of 5.259%, which was the maximum value observed in this study.

  • Perovskite solar cells have received increasing attention in recent years because of their outstanding power conversion efficiency (exceeding 22%). However, they typically contain toxic Pb, which is a limiting factor for industrialization. We focused on preparing Pb-free perovskite films of Ag-Bi-I trivalent compounds. Perovskite thin films with improved optical properties were obtained by applying an anti-solvent (toluene) washing technique during the spin coating of perovskites. In addition, the surface condition of the perovskite film was optimized using a multi-step thermal annealing treatment. Using the optimized process parameters, $AgBi_2I_7$ perovskite films with good absorption and improved planar surface topography (root mean square roughness decreased from 80 to 26 nm) were obtained. This study is expected to open up new possibilities for the development of high performance $AgBi_2I_7$ perovskite solar cells for applications in Pb-free energy conversion devices.
