This paper describes a two quadrant bidirectional soft switching converter for ultra capacitor interface circuits. The total efficiency of the energy storage system in terms of size and cost can be increased by a combination of batteries and ultra capacitors. The required system energy is provided by a battery, while an ultra capacitor is used at high load power pulses. The ultra capacitor voltage changes during charge and discharge modes, therefore an interface circuit is required between the ultra capacitor and the battery. This interface circuit must have good efficiency while providing bidirectional power conversion to capture energy from regenerative braking, downhill driving and the protecting ultra capacitor from immediate discharge. In this paper a fully soft switched two quadrant bidirectional soft switching converter for ultra capacitor interface circuits is introduced and the elements of the converter are reduced considerably. In this paper, zero voltage transient (ZVT) and zero current transient (ZCT) techniques are applied to increase efficiency. The proposed converter acts as a ZCT Buck to charge the ultra capacitor. On the other hand, it acts as a ZVT Boost to discharge the ultra capacitor. A laboratory prototype converter is designed and realized for hybrid vehicle applications. The experimental results presented confirm the theoretical and simulation results.

A series voltage compensation(SVC) system is a power-electronics controller that can protect sensitive loads from disturbance in the supply system. Especially, voltage sags are considered the dominant disturbances affecting the power quality. This paper dealt with a system of off-line type voltage sag compensation by using a bi-directional DC/DC converter of environmentally friendly ultra-capacitor. This capacitor is attached to the DC link of SVC through the high-efficiency DC/DC converter in order to compensate the DC link voltage drop during short-term power interruption as voltage sags. Therefore, in this paper, a DC/DC converter to control high-efficiency energy of ultra-capacitor and voltage sag detection algorithm of off-line type SVC systems are newly introduced. According to the results of experimental of prototype system, it is verified that the proposed system has effectiveness of voltage sag compensation using an ultra-capacitor.

We had experiment using LB method that can fabricate molecular order ultra-thin film below 100${\AA}$. LB mettled has known as main technology of information society in 21C, because it is nut only free oriention and alignment of molecular but also ability of thickness control as molecular order. In this paper, the fabricated condition and physical properities of functional ultra-thin film of molecular order was investigated and highly efficient ultra-thin film capacitor was fabricated by using ultra-thin LB film for application as electronic device. Possibility of ultra-thin film capacitor was researched by analizing rind measuring electrical properties. Polyimide ultra-thin LB film capacitor was fabricated, ensured theoretically rind experimentally its possibility in range of 10Hz∼ 1MHz through its frequency characteristics.

In this paper, the design of PRT vehicle power supply system is discussed. Since there is no power feeding line facilities in PRT system under development, the PRT vehicle must have its own energy storage device on board. For the energy storage device, ultra-capacitor bank is applied due to its fast charging capability and long life time. Charging the Ultra-capacitor bank is performed by wireless inductive power transfer system. The capacitor bank is charged up in less than 10 seconds when the vehicle is traveling by passenger stations. In this paper the design of the ultra-capacitor bank and the wireless inductive power transfer system for the PRT vehicle are discussed. Tests are conducted for the both system and the result shows the efficiency of the wireless inductive power transfer system is higher than 80%.

Electric power trains receive electric power from overhead cables via a pantograph system. Power collector system in trains increase the cross section of tunnel and require a massive coreless filter reactor in propulsion inverter because of the power disturbance by contact loss phenomenon of a train. In this paper we proposed a wireless train which can run to next station with charging energy of ultra-capacitor module block. We designed DC-DC converter to charge and discharge ultra-capacitor modules by using Next Train running test results and confirm the feasibility of the proposed system through simulation.

In this paper, an ultra-small marker beacon antenna operated in the VHF-band is proposed. This antenna has a modified linear IFA structure with a lumped capacitor and a capacitive plate for frequency tuning and impedance matching. The capacitive plate is directly connected to the end of a linear radiator and is separated from the antenna ground by 1 mm. The main operating frequency is mainly controlled by the size and dielectric constant of the capacitive plate. The lumped capacitor is useful for fine frequency tuning. Using the proposed structure, an ultra-small marker beacon antenna can be realized with a length of 0.04 ${\lambda}_0$.

This study was concerned, after the oxide films(50 [.angs.]) were grown in a furnace and the MOS capacitor fabricated, with experimental comparison and verification about the Interference Effect of Electronic Waves in the ultra thin oxide/silicon interface. The average error was about 0.8404[%] in n'gate/p-sub and about 0.2991[%] in p$^{+}$gate/p-sub. Therefore, it was predicted that the Interference Effect of Electronic Waves can overcome somewhat according to the gate polarity.

Ultra-thin silicon dioxides were grown on p-type(100) oriented silicon employing rapid thermal dry oxidation technique at the temperature range of 850∼1050 $^{\circ}C$. The growth rate of the ultra-thin film was fitted well with tile model which was proposed recently by da Silva ＆ Stosic. The capacitance-voltage, current-voltage, characteristics were used to study the electrical properties of these thin oxides. The minimum interface state density around the midgap of the MOS capacitor having oxide thickness of 111.6 $\AA$ derived from the C-V curve was ranged from 6 to 10${\times}$10$^{10}$ /$\textrm{cm}^2$eV.
