Recently, interest in renewable energy is increasing due to energy depletion and environmental problems. Among them, solar energy is the most popular feature for its infinite, eco-friendly, easy to maintain and high utilization. In these solar power systems, solar cells have either a current-voltage characteristic curve or a power-voltage characteristic curve with non-linear properties. Therefore, the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique is important to control this. In this thesis, we will discuss MPPT techniques using a boost converter and demonstrate their behavior using the PSIM program. Also, the MPPT control algorithm for solar energy generation will be proposed.

We fabricated seeded $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$(SBT) thin films using seeding technique on the $LaZrO_x$ (LZO)/Si structure. To evaluate the ferroelectric properties of seeded SBT thin films, we investigated the crystalline phase, the surface morphology, the capacitance-voltage (C-V) curve and the current density-voltage (J-V) curve of seeded films and then compared with the physical and electrical properties of unseeded films. As the result of that, the characteristics of seeded and unseeded films have a slight difference. Therefore, the ferroelectric properties of seeded SBT thin films are not necessarily superior than unseeded films.

This paper proposes a modeling of fuel cell which replaces dc source during simulation. Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that convert chemical energy in fuels into electrical energy. This system has high efficiency and heat, no environmental chemical pollutions and noise. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) are commonly used as a residential generator. These fuel cells have different electrical characteristics such as a low voltage and high current compared with solar cells. And there are different behaviors in the V-I curve in the temperature and pressure. Therefore, the modeling of fuel cell should consider wide voltage range and slow current response and the resulting electrical model is applied to boost converter with fuel cell as an input source.

A solar array simulator is a special power supply that regulates the output voltage and current to simulate the characteristics of a photovoltaic panel. The operating point of the panel is difficult to control with a single controller because of the non-linearity of the output curve, which is determined by the amount of irradiation, temperature, and panel material. In the conventional method, the output curve is divided into sections through the current and the voltage mode controls. It reduces the overall performance of the system due to the interchanging control mode. By using the single mode controller, the noise interference of the measured value and the stability of the control around the maximum power point were demonstrated. To solve these issues, this study proposes a new unified controller. The stability of the controller was analyzed along with operating principles, and performance improvement was experimentally verified.

In this study, we observed current-voltage characteristics of the MIM (metal-insulator-metal) structure. The $WO_x$ material was used between metal electrodes as the oxide insulator. The structure of the $Al/WO_x/TiN$ shows bipolar resistive switching and the operating direction of the resistive switching is clockwise, which means set at negative voltage and reset at positive voltage. The set process from HRS (high resistance state) to LRS (low resistance state) occurred at -2.6V. The reset process from LRS to HRS occurred at 2.78V. The on/off current ratio was about 10 and resistive switching was performed for 5 cycles in the endurance characteristics. With consecutive switching cycles, the stable $V_{set}$ and $V_{reset}$ were observed. The electrical transport mechanism of the device was based on the migration of oxygen ions and the current-voltage curve is following (Ohm's Law ${\rightarrow}$ Trap-Controlled Space Charge Limited Current ${\rightarrow}$ Ohm's Law) process in the positive voltage region.

Voltage-current characteristics of High Temperature Superconductor(HTS) tapes after applying the current beyond their critical current was investigated. When over-current is applied, the current begins to flow through the metal sheath instead of superconductor. The HTS tapes quenched were analyzed using V-I curve with various magnitudes of current. Two kinds of tapes were compared with each other to examine the influence of critical current on quench development. As a result, it was found that the resistance of superconductors and joule heat due to the over-current affect current distribution in HTS tapes. Critical current of HTS tapes was considered as a main factor deciding over-current characteristics.

In order to prevent voltage collapse. this paper introduces the idea of the intelligent system and operating polices for a power system, then presents the results of voltage stability studies for that power system. The intelligent system includes a dedicated computer doing calculation and evaluation jobs and several intelligent relays serving as last guards to carry out the pre-set remedies. In the intelligent system, P-V curves are used to determine the operating margin from the current operating point to the maximum operating point, or the nose point. This paper suggests an operating guide for voltage stability of a power system. The effectiveness of location ad amount of load shedding for the different power load models are studied.

구형파의 디지털 자료를 전송하기에 적합한 구조의 휘트스톤 브리지 형태로 GMR 아이솔레이터를 모델링하고, 여기에서 입력전류에 대한 출력전압특성을 시간영역에서 조사하였다. GMR 아이솔레이터를 자기적 부분과 전기적 부분으로 나누고 제조된 스핀벨브 소자의 측정결과를 대입하여 출력전압을 구할 수 있는 모델링 순서도를 설정하였다. 자기적 모델링으로는 평판코일의 3차핀 모델을 FEM방법으로 해석하여 입력전류에 의해 생성되는 자장의 세기를 구하였다. 전기적 모델링을 위해 평판코일의 저항과 인덕턴스 그리고 정전용량을 계산하여, 시간영역에서 입력전류파형과 이에 따른 자기장파형을 구하였다. 마지막으로 스핀밸브의 MR-H 측정곡선과 평판코일에서 발생된 자장의 세기를 조합하여 아이솔레이터의 출력전압파형을 계산하였다. 여기에서 GMR 아이솔레이터의 입력전류파형에 비해 코일전류파형의 진폭이 최고 100％ 정도 증가하거나 90 ％ 정도 감소하고, 주기의 10％ 정도에 해당하는 지연이 발생하였다. 그럼에도 출력전압 파형은 스핀밸브의 히스테리시스 특성 때문에 400 Mbit/s 이상의 전송속도에서 입력전류파형과 비슷하게 복원되어 전달될 수 있음을 예측할 수 있었다.

Different power output of solar cells can be observed at high-temperature regions such as desert areas. In this study, performance dependence on operating temperature of crystalline silicon solar cells with different emitter types was analyzed. Based on the light current-voltage (LIV) measurement, temperature coefficients of short-circuit current density ($J_{SC}$), open-circuit voltage ($V_{OC}$), fill factor (FF) and power conversion efficiency were measured and compared for two groups of crystalline silicon solar cells with different emitter types. One group had homogeneously doped (conventional) emitter and another selectively doped (selective) emitter. Varying the operating temperature from 25 to 40, 60, and $80^{\circ}C$, LIV characteristics of the cells were measured and the properties of saturation current densities ($J_0$) were extracted from dark current-voltage (DIV) curve. From the DIV data, effect of temperature on the performance of the solar cells with different electrical structures for the emitter was analyzed. Increasing the temperature, both emitter structures showed a slight increase in $J_{SC}$ and a rapid degradation of $V_{OC}$. FF and power conversion efficiency also decreased with the increasing temperature. The degrees of $J_{SC}$ increase and $V_{OC}$ degradation for two groups were compared and explained. Also, FF change was explained by series and shunt resistances from the LIV data. It was concluded that the degradation of solar cells shows different values at different temperatures depending on the emitter type of solar cells.
