Cobalt oxide was composite with MWNT to attain cycle stable by chemical method. We have been considered CoOx is the ideal material for high energy density electrochemical capacitor due to pseudo capacitor reaction. In this study we found that decrease in resistance due to composite MWNT. Also CoOx/MWNT composite material have resulted larger capacitance and exhibits better electrochemical behavior. The structural feature was investigated by using SEM. The CoOx/MWNT composite is not only a promising ultracapacitor material for energy storages but also has a good possibility because of its great capacitive properties, simple preparation and low cost.

In this paper, stator form-winding sample coils based on silicone resin and polyimide were made for fault prediction and reliability estimation on the 200 Class insulation system of traction motors. The complex accelerative degradation was performed by periods during 10 cycles, which was composed of thermal stress, fast rising surge voltage, vibration, water immersion and overvoltage applying. After aging of 10 cycles, condition diagnosis test such as insulation resistance & polarization index, capacitance & dielectric loss and partial discharge properties were investigated in the temperature range of 20∼160$^{\circ}C$. Relationship among condition diagnosis test was analyzed to find an dominative degradation factor and an insulation state at end-life point.

Crystalline carbon nitride films have been attempted for an application of humidity sensors. The films were deposited on $Al_2O_3$ substrate having interdigitated electrodes by reactive RF magnetron sputtering system. The film revealed a good humidity-resistance characteristics as well as humidity-capacitance ones in the humidity range of $10\;{\sim}\;95\;RH(%)$. Temperature dependence was also investigated. These results suggest that carbon nitride film have a possibility for a new humidity-sensitive materials.

Cu+ ions drift diffusion in formal oxide film and SiOCH film for interlayer dielectric is evaluated. The diffusion is investigated by measuring shift in the flatband voltage of capacitance/voltage measurements on Cu gate capacitors after bias temperature stressing. At a field of 0.2MV/cm and temperature $200^{\circ}C,\;300^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C,\;500^{\circ}C$ for 10min, 30min, 60min. The Cu+ ions drift rate of $SiOCH(k=2.85{\pm}0.03)$ film is considerable lower than termal oxide. As a result of the experiment, SiOCH film is higher than Thermal oxide film for Cu+ drift diffusion resistance. The important conclusion is that SiOCH film will solve a causing reliability problems aganist Cu+ drift diffuion in dielectric materials.

The devices with a structure of ITO/$Alq_3$/Al were fabricated and their impedance properties were analyzed. It is obtained that an effect of resistance $R_p$ of the device was dominant at the low frequency and the high voltage region, emitting region, and it is ignored at the high frequency region. Capacitance $C_p$ appears intensely in a range of all frequencies of non-emitting region, below turn on voltage.

In this study, in order to develop low temperature sintering ceramic ultrasonic nozzle, single-layer and multilayer ring-type piezoelectric vibrators were manufactured using PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics, And then the electrical properties were investigated. The piezoelectric vibrator were sintered at low temperature of $940^{\circ}C$. The resonant resistance decreased with the increases of the number of layer. And also, the capacitance increased with the increases of the number of layer. The mechanical quality factor (Qm) decreased with the increases of the number of layer.

In this paper, the bidirectional DC-DC converter is composed of the 900V Silicon-Carbide(SiC) devices to get high efficiency. The 900V SiC device is better than a similar current rated traditional SiC device. it has a lower drain-source resistance and output capacitance. therefore it can reduce the switching and the conduction losses of the DC-DC converter. The experimental results verify the improvement of efficiency and usefulness of 900V SiC device.

Electrochemical oxidation of silicon (p-type Si(100)) at room temperature in ethylene glycol and in aqueous solutions has been performed by applying constant low current densities for the preparation of thin SiO2 layers. In-situ ac impedance spectroscopic methods have been employed to characterize the interfaces of electrolyte/oxide/semiconductor and to estimate the thickness of the oxide layer. The thicknesses of SiO2 layers calculated from the capacitive impedance were in the range of 25-100Å depending on the experimental conditions. The anodic polarization resistance parallel with the oxide layer capacitance increased continuously to a very large value in ethylene glycol solution. However, it decreased above 4 V in aqueous solutions, where oxygen evolved through the oxidation of water. Interstitially dissolved oxygen molecules in SiO2 layer at above the oxygen evolution potential were expected to facilitate the formation of SiO2 at the interfaces. Thin SiO2 films grew efficiently at a controlled rate during the application of low anodization currents in aqueous solutions.

In this paper, a novel multimode liquid metal-based pressure sensor is developed. The main body of the sensor is composed of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer. The structure of the sensor looks like a sandwich, in which the upper structure contains a cylindrical cavity, and the bottom structure contains a spiral microchannel, and the middle partition layer separates the upper and the bottom structures. Then, the liquid metal is injected into the top cavity and the bottom microchannel. Based on linear elastic fracture mechanics, the deformation of the microchannel cross-section is theoretically analyzed. The changes of resistance, capacitance, and inductance of the microchannel under pressure are deduced, and the corresponding theoretical models are established. The theoretical values of the pressure sensor are in good agreement with experimental data, implying that the developed theoretical model can explain the performance of the sensor well.

The durability and reliability of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) play an important role in the service reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) of hot­section components in advanced turbine engines for aero and utility applications. Photostimulated luminescence spectroscopy (PSLS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are being concurrently developed as complimentary non­destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques for quality control and life­remain assessment of TBCs. This paper overviews the governing principles and applications of the luminescence and the impedance examined in the light of residual stress, phase constituents and resistance (or capacitance) in TBC constituents including the thermally grown oxide (TGO) scale. Results from NDE by PSLS and EIS are discussed and related to the microstructural development during high temperature thermal cycling, examined by using a variety of microscopic techniques including focused ion beam (FIB) in­situ lift­out (INLO), transmission and scanning transmission electron microscopy (TEM and STEM).
