Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been rapidly expanding from IT based applications to uses in electric vehicles (EVs), smart grids, and energy storage systems (ESSs), all of which require low cost, high energy density and high power density. The increasing demand for LIBs has resulted in increasing price of the lithium source, which is a major obstacle to wider application. To date, the possible depletion of lithium resources has become relevant, giving rise to the interest in Na-ion batteries (NIBs) as promising alternatives to LIBs. A lot of transition metal compounds based on conversion-alloying reaction have been extensively investigated to meet the requirement for the anodes with high energy density and long life-time. In-depth understanding the electrochemical reaction mechanisms for the transition metal compounds makes it promising negative anode for NIBs and provides feasible strategy for low cost and large-scale energy storage system in the near future.

The surface treatment of cover glass for conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cell is important to reduce reflectivity and to increase the incident light. In this work, random textured anti glare (RTAG) glass was prepared by wet surface coating method. Optical properties due to the changes of surface morphology of RTAG glass were compared and conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cell was researched. Grain size and changes of surface morphologies formed with surface etching time greatly affected optical transmittance and transmission haze. Current density (Jsc) were high at the condition when surface morphologies reflection haze were low and transmission haze were high. Jsc was $40.0mA/cm^2$ at glancing angle of $90^{\circ}$. Incidence light source was strongly influenced by surface treatment of cover glass at high incidence angle but was hardly affected light source at the low angle of incidence.

In this paper a neural network controller for achieving maximum power tracking as well as output voltage regulation, for a wind energy conversion system (WECS) employing a permanent magnet synchronous generator is proposed. The permanent magnet generator (PMG) supplies a dc load via a bridge rectifier and two buck-boost converters. Adjusting the switching frequency of the first buck-boost converter achieves maximum power tracking. Adjusting the switching frequency of the second buck-boost converter allows output voltage regulation. The on-time of the switching devices of the two converters are supplied by the developed neural network (NN). The effect of sudden changes in wind speed and/ or in reference voltage on the performance of the NN controller are explored. Simulation results showed the possibility of achieving maximum power tracking and output voltage regulation simulation with the developed neural network controllers. The results proved also the fast response and robustness of the proposed control system.

This paper presents an efficient algorithm for converting the boundary representation of a polyhedron to its corresponding octree representation which is convenient for detecting intersection between objects. In order to determine the states of octants efficiently and quickly, our algorithm consists of three basic processes which use the bounding box, the infinite plane and the projection. In our conversion algorithm, the states of octants are determined by performing one of these three processes according to the intersecting pattern of an octant with a polyhedron, instead of by performing only a face-to-face intersection test repeatedly. In particular, states of 8 suboctants are determined completely by performing the process using only the infinite plane, when the given octant is intersected with only a patch of the polyhedron. Finally, by using a 3D display method and a volume ratio method, it is confirmed that the octree converted by out algorithm is accurate. It is also confirmed that the conversion time is reduced in our algorithm.

This paper presents a PWM dc-ac converter regulation using a Single Input Fuzzy PI Controller (SIFPIC). The SIFPIC is derived from the signed distanced method, which is a simplification of a conventional fuzzy controller. The simplification results in a one-dimensional rule table, that allows its control surface to be approximated by a piecewise linear relationship. The controller multi-loop structure is comprised of an outer voltage and an inner current feedback loop. To verify the performance of the SIFPIC, a low power PWM dc-ac converter prototype is constructed and the proposed control algorithm is implemented. The experimental results show that the SIFPIC performance is comparable to a conventional Fuzzy PI controller, but with a much reduced computation time.

Recently contactless ID system has emerged as new ID industry. It's called RF-ID. RF-ID is divided into active RF-ID and passive RF-ID. The passive RF-ID operates without battery and so has no limitation in its operating range and life time. But it needs the RF-OC conversion circuit. It also can be applied to batteryless sensor for many application. This paper presents the study of the RF-OC conversion circuit for batteryless system in high frequency and confirms it by simulation and experiment.

We investigated the transient electroluminescence (EL) and modulation characteristics of red organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which consist with 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-i -propyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-cnyl)-4H-pyran (DCJTI) and rubrene doped into tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum ($Alq_3$). The transient EL waveforms showed two components, the overshooting peak and constant component, indicating that the excess amount of accumulated charges simultaneously recombine at the onset moment. This overshooting effect reduced the rise time of transient EL and enhanced the optical output of OLEDs when the pulse voltage applied to the device. We demonstrated that the red OLEDs could be use for the high-speed switching application by driving at more than 100 MHz and transmitting the video signals utilized as the electro-optical conversion device

A CMOS Gm-C filter with variable cutoff frequency applicable for using in the direct conversion receiver is designed. The designed filter comprises the CMOS differential transconductors, and the gm of the transconductor is controlled by the bias voltage. This configuration can compensate variant of the cutoff frequency which could be generated by external noises, and also be used in multiband receiver. As a results of HSPICE simulation, the control range of the cutoff frequency is $1.5MHz{\sim}3.5MHz$ and the gain control range is $-2.8dB{\sim}2.6dB$. The layout of the designed 5th-order Elliptic low-pass filter is performed to fabricate a chip using $2.5V-0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS processing parameter.

P3HT:PCBM bulk heterojunction solar cells added with ferroelectric polymer were fabricated and characterized. By incorporating P3HT:PCBM solar cell with P(VDF-TrFE) ferroelectric additive, the power conversion efficiency was increased up to nearly 50%. Photoacoustic analysis on this phenomena was carried out for the first time. Through this study, we find that the ferroelectricity of the polymer additive plays the key role in the enhancement of the power conversion efficiency of the organic solar cell by suppressing the non-radiative recombination of charge transfer exciton more effectively.
