In this work, in order to investigate the effect of lightning impulse currents on ZnO surge arrester. and the deterioration characteristics of ZnO surge arrester, 8/20 [${\mu}s$], 2.5 [kA] impulse currents were applied to the ZnO surge arrester under test. The leakage currents of ZnO surge arrester were measured and ZnO element was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. As a result, the resistive leakage current of ZnO surge arrester was increased with the injection number of lightning impulse currents.

This paper describes the electrical characteristics of the ZnO surge arrester according to the variation of surrounding conditions. To investigate the characteristics of degraded ZnO surge arrester, 8/20 [${\mu$s], 2.5 [kA] impulse currents were applied to the ZnO surge arrester to be test. To present the effect of the surrounding con야tions, the leakage currents of ZnO surge arrester were measured to the surrounding temperature and wet conditions. As a result, the increase of ambient temperature causes the increase of resistive leakage current of ZnO surge arrester. Also, in the wet test, the outside leakage current through the ZnO surge arrester housing is much larger than the intrinsic leakage current.

차세대 대체에너지로서 유기태양전지는 저비용, flexible한 장점이 있다. 그러나 에너지 효율이 상대적으로 낮아 고효율 유기태양전지 개발이 필요하다. 이 문제를 개선하기위해 본 실험에서는 전기화학적인 방법으로 ZnO 나노구조체 (nanowire, film)를 ITO위에 전착하였다. ZnO 나노구조체는 Poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT):[6,6]-Phnyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM)에서 엑시톤된 전자와 홀의 charge collector와 electron path way로서 사용되었다. 유/무기 하이브리드 태양전지의 구조는 Ag/P3HT:PCBM/(A)/ITO로 사용하였으며 (A)는 (1) ZnO nanowire/ZnO film (2)ZnO nanowire (3)ZnO film으로, 각각의 효율을 측정하였다. 생성된 ZnO 나노구조를 FE-SEM, XRD, TEM, UV/vis로 분석하였고 AM1.5G SUN을 기준으로 하여 Solar simulator로 효율을 측정하였다. 측정결과 Jsc값의 증가를 효율이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

Effect of thickness on ZnO properties including the compositional ratio and crystallinity has been systematically investigated using a variety of characterization tools of x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, x-ray fluorescence and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Interestingly, it was observed that ZnO films below 80 nm in thickness were in oxygen deficiency, while the oxygen ratio was increased in the films above the thickness, although the compositional ratio of ZnO film was not linearly varied with increasing film thickness. Also, ZnO crystallinity, which is characterized by (002) diffraction pattern, was clearly improved with increasing film thickness. The properties of ZnO film with different sputtering time and the nature of direct current reactive sputtering process were discussed in terms of compositional ratio, especially oxygen ratio in ZnO film.

To synthesize ZnO colloidal solution by a sol-gel process, zinc acetate ($C_{4}H_{6}O_{4}Zn{\cdot}2H_{2}O{\cdot}0.2\;mol$) and lithium hydroxide ($LiOH{\cdot}H_{2}O{\cdot}0.14\;mol$) in the ethanol were added to the solution containing a dispersing agent, hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC). The nanosize and physical shape of the synthesized ZnO particles were determined by HPC acting as the dispersing agent. Nanosized ZnO particles were also obtained by a precipitation method based on zinc-2-ethylhexagonate. The precipitates were characterized by DLS, XRD, FE-SEM, and UV-vis. As the results, the ZnO colloids tend to self-assemble into a well-ordered hexagonal close-packed structure. The ZnO nanoparticles have an average diameter of nearly 40 nm with a narrow size distribution.

FED용 형광체로 사용되는 $ZnGa_2O_4$를 Glycine Nitrate Process로 합성하여 고상 반응법으로 합성한 $ZnGa_2O_4$ 분말과 비교 분석하였다. 또한 Glycine Nitrate Process로 제조시 Mn의 doping 농도를 변화시키면서 각각의 조성비에 따른 발광특성을 알아보았다. TGA 측정 결과 GNP법으로 합성된 $ZnGa_2O_4$의 경우약 $300^{\circ}C$이상에서 무게감량이 없으며, XRD 상분석 결과 연소반응 후 이미 상형성이 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다. PL측정을 결과 GP(Glycine Nitrate Process)로 제조된 $ZnGa_2O_4$ 분말의 발광효율이 고상 반응법으로 제조된 분말보다 우수하였으며, 균일하고 비표면적이 큰 단일상임이 관찰되었고, 더 작은 에너지와 시간으로 제조할 수 있는 장점이 있었다.

This paper describes the effect of impulse current on degradation of ZnO blocks. In this study, an impulse current generator which can produce 8/20 [${\mu}s$], 3 [kA] and 4/10 [${\mu}s$], 5 [kA] waveform is designed and fabricated to simulate the lightning impulse current. The residual voltage, reference voltage, and leakage current flowing to the ZnO blocks are observed. The experimental results show that the leakage current increases continuously with the number of applied impulse current, but no significant changes in residual voltage and in operating voltage are observed until the ZnO block is destroyed. Also, it is confirmed that the main factor on degradation of ZnO blocks is rather the total energy applied to ZnO blocks than the peak value of the impulse current.

The fabrication and characterization of a Si/ZnO thin film heterojunction ultraviolet photodiode has been presented in this paper. ZnO thin film of ~100 nm thick was deposited on <100> Silicon (Si) wafer by atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. The Photoluminescence spectroscopy confirms that as-deposited ZnO thin film has excellent visible-blind UV response with almost no defects in the visible region. The room temperature current-voltage characteristics of the n-ZnO thin film/p-Si photodiodes are measured under an UV illumination of $650{\mu}W$ at 365 nm in the applied voltage range of ${\pm}2V$. The current-voltage characteristics demonstrate an excellent UV photoresponse of the device in its reverse bias operation with a contrast ratio of ~ 1115 and responsivity of ~0.075 A/W at 2 V reverse bias voltage.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) and reduced graphite oxide (rGO) composites were synthesized and tested as adsorbents for the hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) adsorption at mid-to-high (300 to $500^{\circ}C$) temperatures. In order to investigate the critical roles of oxygen containing functional groups, such as hydroxyl, epoxy and carboxyl groups, attached on rGO surface for the $H_2S$ adsorption, various characterization methods (TGA, XRD, FT-IR, SEM and XPS) were conducted. For the reduction process for graphite oxide (GO) to rGO, a microwave irradiation method was used, and it provided a mild reduction environment which can remain substantial amount of oxygen functional groups on rGO surface. Those functional groups were anchoring and holding nano-sized ZnO onto the 2D rGO surface; and it prevented the aggregation effect on the ZnO particles even at high temperature ranges. Therefore, the $H_2S$ adsorption capacity had been increased about 3.5 times than the pure ZnO.
