  • This study aims to investigate advantages of complex installation of green roof and PV system in a public building, to analyze the impact of green roof on the efficiency of PV power generation, and to consider the correlation between green roof and PV power generation. When the temperature and power generation of the modules installed in the green roof and non-green roof of the public building were measured for 3 days, the average temperature of the green roof was 23.6 degrees, and it was 36.1 degrees in the non-green roof which increased by nearly 53%. Overall, the module temperature in the green roof was lower. On the other hand, in relation to the PV generation depending on temperature reduction during the same period, the mono-crystalline module and the poly-crystalline module in the green roof showed an increase in generation at nearly 222.2W and 341.6W, and the efficiency rose by 5.5% and 6.2%, respectively, compared to the modules in the non-green roof. Therefore, it is analyzed that green roof has a positive influence on PV power generation. Finally shows the efficiency of the installed on the Green Roof PV system (complex Installation) higher than on the concrete roof PV system. Thus, the complex PV systems as well as the usual benefits of green roofs will provide greater synergies.

  • Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) with layered structure, has recently been considered as promising candidate for next-generation flexible electronic and optoelectronic devices because of its superior electrical, optical, and mechanical properties.[1] Scalability of thickness down to a monolayer and van der Waals expitaxial structure without surface dangling bonds (consequently, native oxides) make TMD-based thin film transistors (TFTs) that are immune to the short channel effect (SCE) and provide very high field effect mobility (${\sim}200cm^2/V-sec$ that is comparable to the universal mobility of Si), respectively.[2] In addition, an excellent photo-detector with a wide spectral range from ultraviolet (UV) to close infrared (IR) is achievable with using $WSe_2$, since its energy bandgap varies between 1.2 eV (bulk) and 1.8 eV (monolayer), depending on layer thickness.[3] However, one of the critical issues that hinders the successful integration of $WSe_2$ electronic and optoelectronic devices is the lack of a reliable and controllable doping method. Such a component is essential for inducing a shift in the Fermi level, which subsequently enables wide modulations of its electrical and optical properties. In this work, we demonstrate n-doping method for $WSe_2$ on poly-4-vinylphenol and poly (melamine-co-formaldehyde) (PVP/PMF) insulating layer and adjust the doping level of $WSe_2$ by controlling concentration of PMF in the PVP/PMF layer. We investigated the doping of $WSe_2$ by PVP/PMF layer in terms of electronic and optoelectronic devices using Raman spectroscopy, electrical measurements, and optical measurements.

  • In this article, we report the tandem mass spectrometry investigations for the electron capture efficiencies of the protons belonging to the different locations (generations) in a poly(propylene imine) dendrimer with three layers of a repeat unit (named as the third generation dendrimer). The employed tandem mass spectrometry methods include SORI-CAD (sustained off-resonance irradiation collisional activation dissociation) and ECD(electron capture dissociation) mass spectrometry. We obtained SORI-CAD spectra for the dendrimer ions in the different charge states, ranging from 2+ to 4+. The analysis of fragmentation sites provides the information as to where the protons are distributed among various generations of the dendrimer. Based upon this, a new strategy to study the electron capture efficiencies of the protons is utilized to examine a new type of triplycharged ions by SORI-CAD, i.e., the 3+ ions generated from the charge reduction of the native 4+ ions by ECD: (M+4H)$^{4+}\;+\;e^-\;{\rightarrow}$ (M+4H)$^{3+\bullet}$ ${\rightarrow}\;({H^{\bullet}}_{ejected}$) + (M+3H)$^{3+}\;\rightarrow$ CAD. Interestingly, comparison of these four SORICAD spectra indicates that the proton distribution in the charge-reduced 3+ ions is very close to that in the native 4+ ions. It further suggests that in this synthetic polymer ($\sim$1.7 kDa) with an artificial architecture, the electron capture efficiencies of the protons are actually insensitive to where they are located in the molecule. This is somewhat contradictory to common expectations that the protons in the inner generations may not be well exposed to the incoming electron irradiation as much as the outer ones are, thus may be less efficient for electron capture. This finding may carry some implications for the case of medium sized peptide ions with similar masses, which are known to show no obvious site-specific fragmentations in ECD MS.

  • ZnO nanowires were grown by hydrothermal synthesis process and piezoelectric poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) was then coated on top of the ZnO-nanowires by spray-coating technique. The composite layer of ZnO-nanowires/PVDF was applied to an energy harvesting device based on piezoelectric-conversion mechanism. A defined mechanical force was given to the nanogenerator device to evaluate their electric power generation characteristics, where output current density and voltage were examined. Electric power generation property of the ZnO-nanowires/PVDF based nanogenerator device was compared to that of the nanogenerator device with ZnO-nanowires as single active layer. Effect of the ZnO-nanowires on improvement of power generation was discussed to examine its feasibility for the nanogenerator device.

  • With the advent of cutting-edge technology, renewable energy is significantly considered as alternative resources to supply electric power. However, many barriers such as energy intermittency, high initial installation cost, and low-efficiency generation challenged building new infrastructure with clean energy. Efforts reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels resulted in the decentralization of power generation like distributed energy resource (DER). This paper is to introduce and evaluate the feasibility of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) in a high-rise building in Ulsan. To optimize BIPV, a variety of methods to minimize efficiency decrease and maximize electric power generation after installing BIPV on the building's facade are suggested. The variables causing power losses are analyzed. By utilizing System Advisor Model (SAM), actual power generated from solar panels is measured by Thin-film PV, Mono-crystalline PV, and Poly-crystalline PV.

  • Bacillus licheniformis 9945a releases a natural ${\gamma}-poly(glutamic\;acid)({\gamma}-PGA)$ into fermentation broth and shows a mucoid phenotype on the solid agar medium. Transformation of mucoid cells of Bacillus species has not been simple and straightforward. The transpositional activity of Tn10 in B. licheniformis also has not been own either. Thus, a spontaneous non-mucoid derivative of the B. licheniformis was obtained first. Shuttle vector pHV1248 containing mini-Tn10 was introduced into the non-mucoid derivative by the method of protoplast transformation. The resulting transformant was reverted to the wild mucoid phenotype, and then mutated randomly with the mini-transposon by heat induction. Auxotrophs requiring arginine, lysine, or tryptophan were isolated by replica plating method. Southern blotting and DNA-DNA hybridzation analysis showed that these auxotrophs were generated by mini-Tn10 insertion into the chromosomal DNA. This method of transformation and mutation using pHV1248 would be useful for the generation of diverse mutants of B. licheniformis 9945a.(Received January 24,1997; accepted March 10, 1997)

  • We report nonvolatile memory properties of poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) thin films grown by vapor phase polymerization using FeCl3 as an oxidant. Liquid-bridge-mediated transfer method was employed to remove FeCl3 for generation of pure PEDOT thin films. From the electrical measurement of memory device, we observed voltage induced bipolar resistive switching behavior with ON/OFF ratio of 103 and reproducibility of more than 103 dc sweeping cycles. ON and OFF states were stable up to 104 seconds without significant degradation. Cyclic voltammetry data illustrates resistive switching effect can be attributed to formation and rupture of conducting paths due to oxidation and reduction of PEDOT. The maximum current before reset process was found to be increase linearly with increase in compliance current applied during set process.

  • Monodisperse PMMA micro spheres are prepared by means of a simple soap-free emulsion polymerization in methanol-enriched aqueous medium in a single step process. The size and uniformity of the microspheres are dependent on the polymerization temperature. In a stable system, the uniformity is improved with the polymerization time. The most uniform and stable micro spheres are obtained under mild agitation speed of 100 rpm at 70$^{\circ}C$. The monodisperse PMMA microspheres in the size range of 1.4-2.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ having less than 5% size variation are successfully achieved with varying concentrations of monomer and initiator. As the monomer and initiator concentrations increase, the larger micro spheres with enhanced uniformity are obtained. However, the decreased amount of water induces the polydisperse PMMA particles due to the generation of secondary particles.
