The feasibility study for the application of the photoelectrocatalytic decolorization of Rhodamine B(RhB) was performed in the slurry photoelectrochemical reactor with powder TiO$_2$. The photoelectrocatalytic process was consisted of powder TiO$_2$, Pt electrode and three 8 W UV-C lamps. The effects of operating conditions, such as current, electrolyte, air flow rate and electrode material were evaluated. The experimental results showed that optimum TiO$_2$ dosage and current in photoelectrocatalytic process were 0.4 g/L and 0.02 A, respectively. It was found that the RhB could be degraded more efficiently by this photoelectrocatalytic process than the sum of the two individual oxidation processes(photocatalytic and electrolytic process). It demonstrated a synergetic effect between the photo- and electrochemical catalysis. Photoelectrocatalytic process was affected to air flow rate and optimum air flow rate was 2 L/min. The electrode material and NaCl effect of decolorization of RhB were not significant within the experiment conditions.

Silicon electrode and ring in a plasma etcher those are in contact with harsh plasma suffer from periodic heating and cooling during their lifetime. This causes the silicon components failure due to thermal stress remaining the persistent slip bands (PSBs) on their surfaces. The factors that determine the lifetime of silicon electrode and ring were discussed with respect to silicon ingot. The impurity level and the average defect concentration measured with glow discharge mass spectrometer (GDMS) and microwave photo-conductance decay (${\mu}$-PCD) were compared with the grade of silicon ingots those are divided to slip-free and slip-allowed ingot. Some silp-allowed samples showed planar defects along <110> direction on {001} surface. The role of these defects was suggested from the viewpoint of the lifetime of silicon components.

Development of low cost hybrid functional nano-structured materials has great interest to enhance sensitivity of dye-sensitized solar cells and reduction of the production cost. In this talk we will discuss about using different processes to modify functional characteristics of photoelectrode and investigate effects of chemical modification without significant structural variation on to enhance performance of DSSCs. Efficient electron transportation between dye molecules and photoelectrode has been obtained by appropriate chemical modification and efficiency of DSSC has been significantly improved. A comparative analysis on effects of surface functional and electron states of photoelectrode on VOC and JSC has been also carried out to discuss effects of composite materials on physical structure and electronic properties to correlate enhanced performance of these devices.

Nowadays, Plasma has been used in biological, medical such as wound healing, plant grow, killing cancer. When plasma generated, UV light and ROS(Reactive oxygen species), RNS(Reactive nitrogen species) can generated and those things effect to biological material. So we made simple plasma device using needle type of electrode and generated plasma. We used three kinds of gas and measured applied voltage and current. Also we observed optical emission spectrum. Using deuterium ramp, we can observed absorption spectrum and calculated radical density by lambert-beer's law. It is around ~1016cm3. And we can see the time-resolved absorption spectrum from monochromator, PMT(photo multiply tube), IV-converter, oscilloscope.

Ti:LiNbO$_3$ 광 도파로를 이용한 광 변조기의 마이크로파 손실을 감소시키고 RF와 광파의 속도정합의 조건하에서 초고속 광변조의 제작을 위해서는 두꺼운 TW(travelling wave) 전극이 필수적이다 또한, 두꺼운 Au 전극이 우수한 RF 특성을 갖기 위해서는 도금된 Au 전극이 고순도의 작은 grain size를 갖는 도금 층을 제조하여야 하며, 도금 후 Au 층의 뒤틀림 현상이 작아야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 LiNbO$_3$ 기판 위에 30nm Ni-Cr과 50nm의 Au의 기저 막을 올렸으며 감광제를 이용한 photo-lithography 공정으로 CPW(coplanar waveguide) 구조의 패턴을 약 13$\mu\textrm{m}$의 두께로 형성 한 후 non-cyanidic 액을 이용하여 전류밀도 0.02 - 0.06 mA, bubble 및 non-bubble flow를 조건으로 하여 도금된 Au 전극의 특성을 관찰하였다.

최근 광 캐패시터 전극 분야는 고효율과 넓은 응용분야로 인해 주목 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 carbon, 활성 carbon을 사용하여 캐패시터샘플을 제작 하였고 간단한 샌드위치 구조에 각각의 캐패시터 전극은 $20{\times}15nm$의 셀을 사용하였다. 각 셀들은 제작방법에는 졸겔법이 사용되었다. 각 셀들의 수분 및 기타물질의 제거를 위해 $120^{\circ}C$에서 1시간동안 건조시켰고 $500^{\circ}C$에서 2시간동안 소결처리 하였다. 소결처리로 인한 carbon의 특성변화를 알아보기 위해 XRD분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서는 캐패시터의 특성을 파악하기 위해 임피던스 특성을 분석하였고 그에 따른 부수적인 결과들을 기술하였다. active carbon을 사용한 캐패시터의 충방전 특성을 측정하였고 최종적으로 평균 두께 $32{\mu}m$, 입자사이즈 $1\sim4.5{\mu}m$의 캐패시터전극용 샘플($20{\times}15nm$)을 제작하였다.

Boron doped fullerene $C_{60}$ ($B:C_{60}$) films were prepared by the thermal evaporation of $C_{60}$ powder using argon plasma treatment. The morphology and structural characteristics of the thin films were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and x-ray photo electron spectroscopy (XPS). The electrochemical application of the boron doped fullerene film as a coating layer for silicon anodes in lithium ion batteries was also investigated. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements were applied to the $B:C_{60}$ coated silicon electrodes at a scan rate of $0.05\;mVs^{-1}$. The CV results show that the $B:C_{60}$ coating layer act as a passivation layer with respect to the insertion and extraction of lithium ions into the silicon film electrode.

In this study, a surface treatment method using accelerated Ar ions was experimented for exposing the carbon nanotubes (CNT) from the screen-printed CNT paste. After making a cathode electrode on the glass substrate, photo sensitive CNT paste was screen-printed, and then back-side was exposed by UV light. Then, the exposed CNT paste was selectively remained by development. After post-baking, the remained CNT paste was bombarded by accelerated Ar ions for removing some binders and exposing only CNTs. As results, the field emission characteristics were strongly depended on the accelerating energy, bombardment time, and the power of RF plasma ion source. When Ar ions accelerated with 100 eV energy from the 100 W RF plasma source are bombarded on the CNT paste surface for 10 min, the emission level and the uniformity were best.

This paper presents the experimental results on breakdown characteristics in $N_2$ gas under non-uniform electric fields caused by both the positive and negative lightning impulse voltages. $N_2$ gas have an advantage of eco-friendly and cost reduction, and safety aspects. In order to analyze the impulse pre-breakdown processes in $N_2$ gas, we carried out measurements and observations of the impulse breakdown voltages, pre-breakdown current and luminous signals. They were measured by a voltage divider, a shunt and a photo-multiplier tube, respectively. Additionally, the characteristics of discharge channels were observed by high speed cameras. The breakdown voltages in the positive polarity was lower than those in the negative polarity.
