We analyzed the deep-trap states of GaN/InGaN ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV LEDs) before and after electrical stress. After electrical stress, the light output power dropped by 5.5%, and the forward leakage current was increased. The optical degradation mechanism could be explained based on the space-charge-limited conduction (SCLC) theory. Specifically, for the reference UV LED (before stress), two sets of deep-level states which were located 0.26 and 0.52 eV below the conduction band edge were present, one with a density of $2.41{\times}10^{16}$ and the other with a density of $3.91{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$. However, after maximum electrical stress, three sets of deep-level states, with respective densities of $1.82{\times}10^{16}$, $2.32{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$, $5.31{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ were found to locate at 0.21, 0.24, and 0.50 eV below the conduction band. This finding shows that the SCLC theory is useful for understanding the degradation mechanism associated with defect generation in UV LEDs.

In this paper, We intended to evaluate the characteristics of XLPE/EPDM interface which exists in the cable joint. The fault was mainly occurred in this interface. Thus we looked into the electrical characteristics through the conduction current and the breakdown test. Through from the experiment, we obtained the result that the conduction current in this interface flowed less than other dielectric materials, that the breakdown strength was higher and that the pressure dependance ㅐf the breakdown strength was higher.

In the issues of interleaved topology which have been in limelight as high power converter, various soft-switching methods are studied to reduce switching losses in high power application. The interleaved ZCT converter has an additional filter inductor to reduce losses of diodes during reverse recovery process. However, additional current conduction modes are occurred by the inductor, we need to analyze switching losses with inductor values on each mode. In this paper, current conduction modes and boundary conditions of interleaved ZCT converter are analyzed. In the conclusion, the minimum of switching losses in converter operation modes is analyzed by calculating switching losses.

In this paper, we study the electrical conduction mechanism in Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) ultra thin films. The LB device was a metal/LB films/metal sandwich structure, where metal is electrode. In our experiments, the temperature depend on the current at above $0^{\circ}C$. This phenomena show that the electrical conduction current is a schottky current inherent to LB ultra thin films.

The main purpose of this paper is to study on the effect of contact state between metal-polymer interface in electrical conduction of polymeric materials under low field region. The electric conduction of polythylene (PE) sandwitched in between two gold (Au) electrodes was lower than that of PE Sandwitched in between two Aluminium (Al) electrodes under low external field. The discharge current of PE which have been treated by the high field application is also obtained some results under no external field. The obtained results can suggest that the material of electrode come to influence on the electrical conduction of polymeric materials and are important as a basis for analysing the data on TSC. It is also suggestive that results of observation must be considered in cases of insulation design of electrical machinery.

Aluminum-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films were deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) with respect to the Al doping concentrations. In order to explain the chemical stability and electrical properties of the AZO thin films after hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) solution immersion treatment at room temperature, we investigated correlations between the electrical resistivity and the electronic structure, such as chemical bonding state, conduction band, band edge state below conduction band, and band alignment. Al-doped at ~ 10 at % showed not only a dramatic improvement of the electrical resistivity but also excellent chemical stability, both of which are strongly associated with changes of chemical bonding states and band edge states below the conduction band.

This paper proposes a new zero-current switching (ZCS) pulse-width modulation (PWM) switch cell that has no additional conduction loss of the main switch. In this cell, the main switch and the auxiliary switch turn on and turn off under zero current condition. The diodes commutate softly and the reverse recovery problems are alleviated. The conduction loss and the current stress of the main switch are minimized, since the resonating current for the soft switching does not flow through the main switch. Based on the proposed ZCS PWM switch cell, a new family of dc to dc PWM converters is derived. The new family of ZCS PWM converters is suitable for the high power applications employing IGBTs. Among the new family of dc to dc PWM converters, a boost converter was taken as an example and has been analyzed. Design guidelines with a design example are described and verified by experimental results from the 2.5㎾ prototype boost converter operating at 40KHz.

We investigated electrical conduction and resistance switching behavior of the Ag/ZnO/Ti structures for random access memory devices. These films were prepared on glass substrate by dc sputtering technique at room temperature. The resistance switching follows unipolar switching mode with small switching voltages (0.4 V - 0.6 V). Two electrical conduction mechanisms dominating the LRS and HRS are Ohmic and trap-controlled space charge limited current, respectively. These both conductions are consistent with the filamentary model. Based on the filamentary model, the switching mechanism was also interpreted.

The electrical property of polymer matrix composites with added carbon powder is studied based on the temperature dependency of the conduction mechanism. The temperature coefficient of the resistance of the polymer matrix composites below the percolation threshold (x) changed from negative to positive at 0.20 < x < 0.21; this trend decreased with increasing of the percolation threshold. The temperature dependence of the electrical property(resistivity) of the polymer matrix composites below the percolation threshold can be explained by using a tunneling conduction model that incorporates the effect of the thermal expansion of the polymer matrix composites into the tunneling gap. The temperature coefficient of the resistance of the polymer matrix composites above the percolation threshold has a positive value; its absolute value increased with increasing volume fraction of carbon powder. By assuming that the electrical conduction through the percolating paths is a thermally activated process and by incorporating the effect of thermal expansion into the volume fraction of the carbon power, the temperature dependency of the resistivity above the percolation threshold can be well explained without violating the universal law of conductivity.

EVA-OH (Ethylene-vinyl acetate-vinyl alchol terpolymers) were prepared by using the transesterification reaction between ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and alchol. Structural and thermal analyses were accomplished with FTIR and DSC. Space charge behaviors of EVA-OH were investigated using PEA method. Electrical conduction currents were also measured. As the increase of conversion rate, melting point increased and we could observe changes in space charge distributions and the increase of electrical conduction currents of EVA-OH.
