LTV(Light to Voltage) 변환을 위한 APD(Avalanche Photo Diode)는 다른 PD(Photo Diode)와 다르게 높은전압의 동작영역을 사용하므로 TIA(Transimpedance Amplifier) 사용시 과전류 방지를 위해 Quenching 저항을 직렬로 연결하여야 한다. 그러한 경우 Quenching 저항이 TIA 전달함수에 영향을 미쳐 안정도에 심각한 결과를 초래할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 APD Quenching 저항이 TIA의 전압과 전류 루프 전달함수에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 안정도 개선을 위한 Quenching 저항 값 결정 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 방법에 의하여 Quenching 저항을 가지는 TIA 회로를 설계하여 시뮬레이션 및 칩 제작을 통하여 동작의 안정도를 검증하였다.

In this study, zinc tin oxide (ZTO) films were prepared on indium tin oxide (ITO) glasses and annealed at different temperatures under vacuum to investigate the correlation between the Ohmic/Schottky contacts, electrical properties, and bonding structures with respect to the annealing temperatures. The ZTO film annealed at $150^{\circ}C$ exhibited an amorphous structure because of the electron-hole recombination effect, and the current of the ZTO film annealed at $150^{\circ}C$ was less than that of the other films because of the potential barrier effect at the Schottky contact. The drift current as charge carriers was similar to the leakage current in a transparent thin-film device, but the diffusion current related to the Schottky barrier leads to the decrease in the leakage current. The direction of the diffusion current was opposite to that of the drift current resulting in a two-fold enhancement of the cut-off effect of leakage drift current due to the diffusion current, and improved performance of the device with the Schottky barrier. Hence, the thin film with an amorphous structure easily becomes a Schottky contact.

This paper proposes DC offset current compensation method of transformerless fuel cell/PV PCS. DC offset current is generated by the unbalanced internal resistance of the switching devices in full bridge topology. The other cause is the sensitivity of the current sensor, which is lower than DSP in resolution. If power converter system has these causes, the AC output current in the inverter will generate the DC offset. In case of transformerless grid-connected inverter system, DC offset current is fatal to grid-side, which results in saturating grid side transformer. Several simulation results show the difficulties of detecting DC offset current. Detecting DC offset current method consists of the differential amplifiers and PWM is compensated by the output of the Op amp circuit with integrator controller. PSIM simulation verifies that the proposed method is simpler and more effective than using low resolution current sensor alone.

디지털 카메라가 널리 보급되면서 사람들은 언제, 어디서나 사진을 찍고 값싼 저장장치에 많은 수의 사진을 저장할 수 있게 되었다. 하지만 많은 수의 사진 중 원하는 사진을 효율적으로 탐색하는 것은 어려운 문제로 남아 있다. 본 논문은 위치 정보를 갖는 대규모 사진집합을 신속하고 직관적으로 탐색하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 전체 사진집합을 구조화하기 위해 지리적 거리가 가장 근접한 사진들을 묶어 군집화하고, 이러한 과정을 반복하여 최종적으로 모든 사진이 하나의 군집으로 병합되는 계층적 군집화를 수행한다. 또한 모든 군집의 컨벡스 헐과 넓이를 미리 계산하여 사진 탐색 시에는 미리 계산된 데이터와 현재 탐색 중인 지리 영역에 포함되는 군집들의 넓이를 비교해 적절한 넓이의 군집들을 선택적으로 시각화한다. 이 때 군집은 포함되는 모든 사진의 위치를 보여주는 대신 컨벡스 헐로 시각화하여 군집의 정확한 공간적 범위를 쉽게 파악할 수 있다. 사용자는 관심 군집을 클릭하여 해당 군집으로 신속하게 이동할수 있으며, 시스템은 관심 군집을 지도 영역에 정확히 채워 보일 수 있도록 자동적으로 지도 이동과 축척 조절을 하고 적절한 넓이의 하위 군집들로 분할하여 시각화한다. 특정주제 검색, 사진분류 등의 일반적인 사진탐색 예제를 통하여 제안된 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.

Organic dyes, because of their many advantages, such as high molar extinction coefficients, convenience of customized molecular design for desired photophysical and photochemical properties, inexpensiveness with no transition metals contained, and environment-friendliness, are suitable as photosensitizers for the Dye-sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC). The efficiency of DSSC based on metal-free organic dyes is known to be much lower than that of Ru dyes generally, but a high solar energy-to-electricity conversion efficiency of up to 8% in full sunlight has been achieved by Ito et al. using an indoline dye. This result suggests that smartly designed and synthesized metal-free organic dyes are also highly competitive candidates for photosensitizers of DSSCs with their advantages mentioned above. Recently, the performance of DSSC based on metal-free organic dyes has been remarkably improved by several groups. We had reported the novel organic dye with double electron acceptor chromophore, which was a new strategy to design an efficient photosensitizer for DSSC. To verify the strategy, we synthesized organic dyes whose geometries, electronic structures and optical properties were derived from preceding density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. In this paper, we successfully synthesized the chromophore containing multi-acceptor push-pull system from triphenylamine with thiophene moieties as a bridge unit. Organic dyes with a single electron acceptor and double acceptor system were also synthesized for comparison purposes. The photovoltaic performances of these dyes were compared, and the recombination dark current curves and the incident photon-to-current (IPCE) efficiencies were also measured in order to characterize the effects of the multi-anchoring groups on the open-circuit voltage and the short-circuit current. In order to match specifications required for practical applications to be implemented outdoors, light soaking and thermal stability tests of these DSSCs, performed under $100mWcm^{-2}$ and $60^{\circ}C$ for 1000h.

We propose a simple method to control the crystallization depth of amorphous silicon (a-Si) deposited by PECVD or LPCVD during the excimer laser annealing (ELA). Employing the new method, we have formed poly-Si/a-Si double film and fabricated a new poly-Si TFT with vertical a-Si offsets between the poly-Si channel and the source/drain of TFT without any additional photo-lithography process. The maximum leakage current of the new poly-Si TFT decreased about 80% due to the highly resistive vertical a-Si offsets which reduce the peak electric field in drain depletion region and suppress electron-hole pair generation. In ON state, current flows spreading down through broad a-Si cross-section in the vertical a-Si offsets and the current density in the drain depletion region where large electric field is applied is reduced. The stability of poly-Si TFT has been improved noticeably by suppressing trap state generation in drain region which is caused by high current density and large electric field. For example, ON current of the new TFT decreased only 7% at a stress condition where ON current of conventional TFT decreased 89%.

In heterojunction photovoltaic devices of $ITO/TiO_2/poly$(3-alkylthiophene)/Au, the photo current was characterized at different temperatures for different alkyl chain lengths and regioregularities: regiorandom, regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene), and regioregular poly(3-dodecylthiophene). The regioregularity and alkyl chain length affected the photovoltaic characteristics due to differences in hole-carrier transportation. The drift charge mobilities of these devices were analyzed by the space-charge-limited current theory using the relation between the dark current and the bias voltage. The photocurrent in the devices based on poly(3-alkylthiophene)s decreased rapidly below the temperature at which the drift charge mobility was $10^{-5}\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$.

In this paper, it is investigated how the morphology and electrical properties in Polyphenylene Sulfide(PPS) changed by uniaxial elongation. XRD(X-ray diffraction) pattern shows that interplanar distance and crystallinities are decreased by increasing elongation ratio. electrical conduction mechanism of PPS is explained as Schottky emission mechanism. the electrical current is decreased by increasing elongation ratio. The conductivity is changed considerably above the glass transition temperature around 82(>$^{\circ}C$). The band gap of PPS is evaluated as 3.7~4(eV)

Redox cycling in between the two working electrodes in an electrochemical cell can lead a great signal enhancement. In this work, we report on a systematic examination of current amplification along with the decrease in the gap distance of a nanogap device which was fabricated by the combination of photo and chemical lithography [1]. The gap distance was controlled by the chemical lithographic process of surfacecatalyzed growth of metallic layer on pre-defined electrodes with wider initial gap. Enhancement of the redox current of ferri/ferrocyanide was observed upon gap distance reduction and the current is amplified about a thousand times in this redox system when the gap distance was decreased from 200 nm to 30 nm. The experimental results were discussed on the basis of the cyclic voltammetry (CV), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
