  • All-solid-state solar cell based on Chloride doped organometallic halide perovskite, (CH3NH3)PbIxCl3-x, has achieved a highly power conversion efficiency (PCE) to over 15% [1] and further improvements are expected up to 20% [2]. In this way, solar cells using novel light absorbing perovskite material are actively being studied as a next generation solar cells. However, making solution-process require high temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$ to form compact hole blocking layer and sinter the mesoporous oxide scaffold layer. Because of this high temperature process, fabrication of flexible solar cells on plastic substrate is still troubleshooting. In this study, we fabricated highly efficient flexible perovskite solar cells with PCE in excess of 11%. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is used to deposit dense $TiO_2$ as hole blocking layer on ITO/PEN substrate. The all fabrication process is done at low temperature below $150^{\circ}C$. This work shows that one of the important blueprint for commercial use of perovskite solar cells.

  • self-aligned silicide(salicide)제조시 CoSi2의 에피텍셜 성장을 돕기 위하여 Co와 Si 사이에 내열금속층을 넣은 Co/내열금속/Si의 실리사이드화가 관심을 끌고 있다. Hf 역시 Ti와 마찬가지로 이러한 용도로 사용될 수 있다. 한편, Co/Hf 이중층 salicide 트랜지스터가 성공적으로 만들어지기 위해서는 spacer oxide 위에 증착된 Co/Hf 이중층이 열적으로 안정해야 한다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구에서는 SiO2기판 위에 증착한 Co 단일층과 Co/Hf 이중층을 급속열처리할 때 Co와 SiO2간의 계면과 Co/Hf와 SiO2간의 계면에서의 상호반응에 대하여 조사하였다. Co 단일층과 Co/Hf 이중층은 각각 $500^{\circ}C$$550^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 후 면저항이 급격하게 증가하기 시작하였는데, 이것은 Co층이 SiO2와의 계면에너지를 줄이기 위하여 응집되기 때문이다. 이 때 Co/Hf의 경우 열처리후 Hf에 의하여 SiO2 기판이 일부 분해됨으로써 Hf 산화물이 형성되었으나, 전도성이 있는 HfSix 등의 화합물은 발견되지 않았다.

  • The effect on the pitting corrosion resistance of laser welding and surface treatment developed as a repair method of stream generator tubing material that was a major component of primary system at nuclear power plant was observed. Some heat-treated Alloy 600 tubing materials used at domestic nuclear power plants were laser-surface observed. Some heat-treated Alloy 600 tubing materials used at domestic nuclear power plants were laser-surface melted and the microstructural characteristics were examined. The pitting corrosion resistance was examined through Ep(pitting potential) and degree of pit generation by means of the electrochemical tests and the immersion tests respectively. The pit formation characteristics were investigated through microstructural changes and the pit initiation site and pit morphology. The test results showed that the pitting corrosion resistances was increased in the order of the followings; sensitized Alloy 600, solution annealed alloy600, and laser surface melted Alloy 600. Pits were initiated preferably at Ti-containing inclusions and their surroundings in all tested specimens and it is believed that higher pitting resistance of laser-surface treated Alloy 600 was caused by fine, homogeneous distribution of non-soluble inclusions, the disappearance of grain boundary, and the formation of dense, stable oxide film. The major element of corrosion products filled in the pit was Cr. On the other hand, Fe was enriched in the deposit formed on the pit.

  • The structural and electrical characteristics of SBT thin films, fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO\ulcorner/Si substrates by a pulsed laser deposition(PLD), were investigated to develop ferroelectric thin films for capacitor lay-ers of FRAM. EFfects of target composition on the characteristics of SBT thin films were examined. Target were prepared by mixed oxide method, and composition of Sr/Bi/Ta on SBT was changed to 1/2/2, 1/2.4/2, 1/2.8/2, 0.8/2/2 and 1.2/2/2. SBt thin films were fabricated, as a function of substrate temperature and oxygen pressure, by PLD. The optimized ocndition, to fabricate high quality SBT thin films, was 700 $^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature, 200 mTorr of oxygen pressure, and 2 J/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of laser energy density. Maximum remnant value(2Pr) of 9.0 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, coercive field value(Ec) of 50 kV/cm, dielectric constant value of 166, and leakage current densities of <10\ulcorner A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ were observed for the films with 1/2/2 composition, which was prepared at the above PLD condition.

  • In order to enhance the thermal stability of binder materials of bonded type solid lubricants, several metal-alkoxide based sol-gel materials such as methyltrimethoxysilane(MTMOS), titaniumisopropoxide$(Ti(Opr^i)_4),$ zirconiumisopropoxide $(Zr(Opr^i)_4)$ and aluminumbutoxide$(Al(Obu^t)_4)$ were chemically modified by epoxy-, acrylic- and fluoro-silane compounds, respectively. Friction and wear characteristics of these hybrid ceramic materials were tested with a micro tribo-tester, and evaluated with respect to both heat-curing temperature and the time. Test results generally showed that hybrid ceramic materials modified by epoxy-silane compounds had a low friction compared to others. And the higher het-curing temperature and the longer heat treatment time resulted in the higher friction and the lower wear. IR spectroscopic analyses revealed that these results were caused mainly by the increased metal oxide content in hybrid ceramics when the heat-curing temperature was over $320^{\circ}C.$

  • PZT thin films (3500$\AA$) have been prepard on the Ru/Ru $O_2$ and Ru $O_2$ bottom electrodes with a RF magnetron sputtering system using P $b_{1.05}$(Z $r_{0.52}$, $Ti_{0.48}$) $O_3$ ceramic target. Ru/Ru $O_2$ bottom electrode was fabricated by in-situ processing controlled the $O_2$ partial pressure. The PZT thin films deposited on the Ru/Ru $O_2$ bottom electrode were preferred oriented (101) plane. The PZT thin films deposited on the Ru/Ru $O_2$ bottom electrodes showed better electrical properties than those with Ru $O_2$ bottom electrodes because Ru $O_2$ prevented oxygen vacancies and impurities from existing withing the interface and substrate.e.

  • The effect of porosity on bending and free vibration behavior of simply supported functionally graded plate reposed on the Winkler-Pasternak foundation is investigated analytically in the present paper. The modified rule of mixture covering porosity phases is used to describe and approximate material properties of the FGM plates with porosity phases. The effect due to transverse shear is included by using a new refined shear deformation theory. The number of unknown functions involved in the present theory is only four as against five or more in case of other shear deformation theories. The Poisson ratio is held constant. Based on the sinusoidal shear deformation theory, the position of neutral surface is determined and the equation of motion for FG rectangular plates resting on elastic foundation based on neutral surface is obtained through the minimum total potential energy and Hamilton's principle. The convergence of the method is demonstrated and to validate the results, comparisons are made with the available solutions for both isotropic and functionally graded material (FGM). The effect of porosity volume fraction on Al/Al2O3 and Ti-6Al-4V/Aluminum oxide plates are presented in graphical forms. The roles played by the constituent volume fraction index, the foundation stiffness parameters and the geometry of the plate is also studied.
