To improve the blue responses of screen-printed single crystalline silicon solar cells, we investigated an emitter etch-back technique to obtain high emitter sheet resistances, where the defective dead layer on the emitter surface was etched and became thinner as the etch-back time increased, resulting in the monotonous increase of short circuit current and open circuit voltage. We found that an optimal etch-back time should be determined to achieve the maximal performance enhancement because of fill factor decrease due to a series resistance increment mainly affected by contact and lateral resistance in this case. To elucidate the reason for the fill factor decrease, we studied the resistance analysis by potential mapping to determine the contact and the lateral series resistance. As a result, we found that the fill factor decrease was attributed to the relatively fast increase of contact resistance due to the dead layer thinning down with the lowest contact resistivity when the emitter was contacted with screen-printed silver electrode.

Selection of proper root barrier as destination part of greening is very important in Root penetration resistance plan. To select proper root barrier, it need to understand composition of greening part, size, kind of plant, connection with waterproofing layer. In this point of view, we have establish greening on the roof or concrete structure, not been understand the structural mechanism. It means that we misunderstood about purpose of greening and using it. So, chosen materials and construction method was not proper for greening, it caused water leakage and decrease performance of concrete structure. Therefore, we examine the practical use of copper sheet considering environmental condition for green roof. Watertightness by water of greening part, root penetration resistance test by root penetration, bacteria resistance by must or bacteria in soil, chemical resistance by rain and chemical agent of fertilizer, and load resistance by soil depth, sire of plant. These suggested test methods could be referred as guideline to test in green roof system because of not exist any performance appraisal guideline or standard. Consequently, it should be analysis as technical and institutional subdividing test methods and it need to study constantly as varied angles.

In order to form an aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) transparent electrode film on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate used for a flexible display substrate, the AZO transparent electrode was produced at low temperature without substrate heating. Even though the produced electrode showed characteristic optical transmittance of 90 % (at 550 nm) and sheet resistance within $100{\Omega}/sq$, cracks occurred 10 minutes after loading applied 2 mm radius of curvature, and the sheet resistance increased linearly. An insertion layer of ZrCu was formed between the AZO film and the PET substrate to suppress the generation of cracks on the AZO film. It was verified that the crack was not generated 30 minutes after the loading of 2 mm radius of curvature, and no increase in sheet resistance was recorded. There was also not cracks in the dynamic bending test of 4 mm radius, but surface resistance was slightly increased. As a result, the ZrCu insertion film improved the interfacial adhesion between the substrate and AZO film layer without increasing sheet resistance and decreasing transmittance.

A boron doping process using a boron tri-bromide ($BBr_3$) as a boron source was applied to form a $p^+$ emitter layer on an n-type mono-crystalline CZ substrate. Nitrogen ($N_2$) gas as an additive of the diffusion process was varied in order to study the variations in sheet resistance and the uniformity of doped layer. The flow rate of $N_2$ gas flow was changed in the range 3 slm~10 slm. The sheet resistance uniformity however was found to be variable with the variation of the $N_2$ flow rate. The optimal flow rate for $N_2$ gas was found to be 4 slm, resulting in a sheet resistance value of $50{\Omega}/sq$ and having a uniformity of less than 10%. The process temperature was also varied in order to study its influence on the sheet resistance and minority carrier lifetimes. A higher lifetime value of $1727.72{\mu}s$ was achieved for the emitter having $51.74{\Omega}/sq$ sheet resistances. The thickness of the boron rich layer (BRL) was found to increase with the increase in the process temperature and a decrease in the sheet resistance was observed with the increase in the process temperature. Furthermore, a passivated emitter solar cell (PESC) type solar cell structure comprised of a boron doped emitter and phosphorus doped back surface field (BSF) having Ni/Cu contacts yielding 15.32% efficiency is fabricated.

The LPCVD system of batch type for the massproduction of semiconductor fabrication has a problem of phosphorous concentration uniformity in the boat. In this paper we study an improvement of the uniformity for phosphorous concentration and sheet resistance. These property was improved by using the nitrogen process and modified long nozzle for gas injection tube in the doped polysilicon deposition system. The phosphorous concentration and its uniformity for polysilicon film are measured by XRF(X-ray Fluorescence) for the conventional process condition and nitrogen process. In conventional process condition, the phosphorous concentration, it uniformity and sheet resistance for polysilicon film are in the range of 3.8~5.4$\times$10\ulcorner atoms/㎤, 17.3% and 59~$\Omega$/ , respectively. For the case of nitrogen process the corresponding measurements exhibited between 4.3~5.3$\times$10\ulcorner atoms/㎤, 10.6% and 58~81$\Omega$/ . We find that in the nitrogen process the uniformity of phosphorous concentration improved compared with conventional process condition, however, the sheet resistance in the up zone of the boat increased about 12 $\Omega$/ . In modified long nozzle, the phosphorous concentration, its uniformity and sheet resistance for polysilicon films are in the range of 4.5~5.1$\times$10\ulcorner atoms/㎤, 5.3% and 60~65$\Omega$/ respectively. Annealing after $N_2$process gives the increment of grain size and the decrement of roughness. Modification of nozzle gives the increment of injection amount of PH$_3$. Both of these suggestion result in the stable phosphorous concentration and sheet resistance. The results obtained in this study are also applicable to process control of batch type system for memory device fabrication.

Si(100) 표면에 이온을 일정한 에너지로 dose량을 동일하게 유지하고, dose rate만을 변화시켜가며 주입한 후에 depth profile과 damage, 그리고 sheet resistance를 조사하였다. 일정한 에너지로 이온을 주입하여도 dose rate의 변화에 따라서 depth profile에 변화를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었고 sheet resistance역시 dose rate변화에 비례하여 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 Crystal-TRIM program으로 computer simulation 하여 damage profile의 결과를 통해 dose rate가 클수록 시료 표면 근처에 잔류 damage의 양이 높게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었고 그 잔류 damage의 표면근방 분포가 sheet resistance에 직접적인 영향을 미친다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Because the surface of pine wood is very soft, there have been many attempts, like as surface coating, resin impregnation, and densificationt, to harden the surface of wood for its interior use. This study was carried out for surface hardening of pine wood by laminating of melamine resin sheet. The effect of laminating method on the characteristics of melamine resin sheet-laminated wood(MLW) was investigated. Flat-sawn softwoods were suitable for MLW making. And the pre-drying of wood at $105^{\circ}C$ for 30min, before laminating, was effective for preparing of defect-free MLW. The abrasion resistance of pine wood was greatly improved by laminating of melamine resin sheet on its surface. Consequently, the laminating of melamine resin sheet was proved to be a favorable method for improvement of surface abrasiveness of pine wood.

In the present day, new performances are demanded for automobile body steel sheet for example, light weight, durability, resistance corrosion and environmental protection. For an improvement of resistance corrosion, European automobile companies developed pre-sealed steel in 1990's. Pre-sealed steel have organic coated layer upper zinc coated layer. Evaluating a resistance spot weldability of pre-sealed steel plate is important because resistance spot welding is used mainly in automobile body joining process. In this study, evaluating a weldability of pre-sealed steel plate was carried out using lobe diagram, dynamic resistance and high-speed image. Usually, Pre-sealed steel has poor weldability than GA steel's. To improve a weldability of pre-sealed steel sheet, pre-current was applied to welding process. Pre-current is applied prior to base-current. In conclusion, the weldability of pre-sealed steel has been improved than GA steel's by applying pre-current.
