The laser patterning of sputter-deposited CoNdZr/Cu/CoNbZr multi-layered films had been tried using Nd:YAG laser. However generally it is very difficult to remove metal films because of their high reflectance of the laser on the surfaces. As a counterproposal for this problem authors for the first time tried to deposit energy-absorbing layers on the metal films and then irradiated the laser on the surfaces of energy-absorbing layers. Here the energy-absorbing layers consisted of laser energy-absorbing fine powders and binding polymers. Three kinds of powders for the energy-absorbing layers had been used to see the difference in the pattern formation with the degree of laser energy absorption. They were electrically conductive silver powders insulating BaTiO$_3$powder and semiconducting carbon powder. Remarkable difference in width of the formed pattern and the roughness of pattern edge were observed with the characteristic of the powder for the energy-absorbing layer. The pattern width using carbon paste was about three times larger than that using BaTiO$_3$paste. It was observed that the energy-absorbing layer with carbon was the most effective on this micro-patterning.

In spite of many advantages, the practical application of the thin film solar cell is restricted due to its low efficiency compared with the bulk type solar cells. This study intends to adopt the surface plasmon effect using nano particles to solve the low efficiency problem in thin film solar cells. By inserting Ag nano-particles in the absorbing layer of a thin film solar cell, the poynting vector value of the absorbing layer is increased due to the strong energy field. Increasing the value may give thin film solar cells chance to absorb more energy from the incident beam so that the efficiency of the thin film solar cell can be improved. In this work, we have designed the optimal shape of Ag nano-particle in the absorbing laser of a basic type thin film solar cell using the finite element analysis commercial package COMSOL. Design parameters are set to the particle diameter and the distance between each Ag nano-particle and by changing those parameters using the full factorial design variable set-up, we can determine optimal design of Ag nano-particles for maximizing the poynting vector value in the absorbing layer.

탄성파 수치 모형 계산에 있어서 널리 사용되는 엇갈린 격자 방법이 아니라 회전된 엇갈린 격자 방법을 사용하여 탄성파 수치 모사를 수행하였다. 표준 엇갈린 격자 방법에서는 특별한 자유 경계조건을 적용하여야 하는 단점이 있지만 회전된 격자 방법에서는 물성으로 진공 또는 공기층을 부여함으로써 자유 경계조건을 실현가능하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 파동전파에 있어서 유한 경계 조건에서 발생하는 인공 반사파를 제거하기 위해 PML (Perfectly Matched Layer)의 파동식 분해라는 단점을 극복할 수 있고 좋은 성능을 보이는 CPML (Convolutional Perfectly Matched Layer)법을 회전된 엇갈린 격자법(RSG: Rotatged Staggered Grid)에 적용하였다. 회전된 격자 유한 차분법에서 CPML의 고주파수 흡수 특성과 에너지 흡수율 조사, Cerjan법의 감쇠를 비교한 결과 흡수경계조건으로 좋은 성능을 확인하였다. 유체와 고체의 모형에 대한 경계에 대하여서도 매우 효과적으로 경계면에서 발생하는 반사파를 제거할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Dye sensitized solar cells (DSC) are promising devices for inexpensive, nontoxic, transparent, and large-scale solar energy conversion. Generally thick $TiO_2$ nanoporous films act as efficient photoanodes with their large surface area for absorbing light. However, electron transport through nanoparticle networks causes the slowdown and the loss of electron transport because of a number of interparticle boundaries inside the conduction path. We have studied DSCs with precisely dimension-controlled $TiO_2$ nanotubes array as photoanode. $TiO_2$ nanotubes array is prepared by template-directed fabrication method with atomic layer deposition. Well-ordered nanotubes array provides not only large surface area for light absorbing but also direct pathway for electrons with minimalized grain boundaries. Large enlongated anatase grains in the nanotubes could enhance the conductivity of electrons, but also suppress the recombination with holes through defect sites during diffusion into the electrode. To study the effect of grain boundaries, we fabricated two kinds of nanotubes which have different grain sizes by controlling deposition conditions. And we studied electron conduction through two kinds of nanotubes with different grain structures. The solar cell performance was studied as a function of thickness and grain structures. And overall solar-to-electric energy conversion efficiencies of up to 7% were obtained.

PURPOSES : A geo-grid pavement, e.g., a stress-absorbing membrane interlayer (SAMI), can be applied to an asphalt-overlay method on the existing surface-pavement layer for pavement maintenance related to reflection cracking. Reflection cracking can occur when a crack in the existing surface layer influences the overlay pavement. It can reduce the pavement life cycle and adversely affect traffic safety. Moreover, a failed overlay can reduce the economic value. In this regard, the objective of this study is to evaluate the bonding properties between the rigid pavement and a SAMI by using the direct shear test and the pull-off test. The predicted fractural energy functions with the shear stress were determined from a numerical analysis of the moving average method and the polynomial regression method. METHODS : In this research, the shear and pull-off tests were performed to evaluate the properties of mixtures constructed using no interlayer, a tack-coat, and SAMI with fabric and without fabric. The lower mixture parts (describing the existing pavement) were mixed using the 25-40-8 joint cement-concrete standard. The overlay layer was constructed especially using polymer-modified stone mastic asphalt (SMA) pavement. It was composed of an SMA aggregate gradation and applied as the modified agent. The sixth polynomial regression equation and the general moving average method were utilized to estimate the interlayer shear strength. These numerical analysis methods were also used to determine the predictive models for estimating the fracture energy. RESULTS : From the direct shear test and the pull-off test results, the mixture bonded using the tack-coat (applied as the interlayer between the overlay layer and the jointed cement concrete) had the strongest shear resistance and bonding strength. In contrast, the SAMI pavement without fiber has a strong need for fractural energy at failure. CONCLUSIONS : The effects of site-reflection cracking can be determined using the same tests on cored specimens. Further, an empirical-mechanical finite-element method (FEM) must be done to understand the appropriate SAMI application. In this regard, the FEM application analy pavement-design analysis using thesis and bonding property tests using cored specimens from public roads will be conducted in further research.

As energy depletion and environmental pollution problems are intensified, research has been conducted actively on alternative energy sources, an eco-friendly and continuous available energy conversion system. So has been organic solar cells whose efficiency is improved to 18.32%. The photoactive layer inside the solar cell is composed of a donor and a acceptor, and the combination of materials capable of effectively exchanging electrons greatly affects the efficiency of the organic solar cell. Accordingly, various researches have been conducted to improve the efficiency, and the maximum efficiency could be achieved by a solar cell with high carrier generation and low charge recombination characteristics through the introduction of a non-fullerene acceptor and material reconstruction. Organic solar cells are still difficult to commercialize due to their efficiency limitations and light stability, but if a photoactive layer consisting of a donor capable of efficiently absorbing long-wavelength light and an acceptor capable of forming an appropriate energy level is designed, the efficiency of the organic solar cell will reach 20%.

Zr-O ($Zr-ZrO_2$) cermets solar selective coatings with a double cermets layer film structure were prepared using a DC (direct current) magnetron sputtering method. The typical film structure from surface to bottom substrate were an $Al_2O_3$ anti-reflection layer on a double Zr-O cermets layer on an Al metal infrared reflection layer. Optical properties of optimized Zr-O cermets solar selective coating had an absorptance of ${\alpha}\;=\;0.95$ and thermal omittance of ${\epsilon}\;=\;0.10\;(100^{\circ}C)$. The absorbing layer of Zr-O cermets coatings on glass and silicon substrate was identified as being amorphous by using XRD. AFM showed that ZF-O cermets layers were very smooth and their surface roughness were approximately $0.1{\sim}0.2 nm$. The chemical analysis of the cermets coatings were determined by using XPS. Chemical shift of photoelectron binding energy was occurred due to the change of Zr-O cermets coating structure deposited with increase in oxygen flow rate. The result of thermal stability test showed that the Zr-O cermets solar selective coating was stable for use at temperature below $350^{\circ}C$.

에어로솔의 광학특성과 연직고도는 태양 복사의 반사와 흡수과정을 통하여 지구복사수지에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 복사전달모델과 위성관측자료를 이용하여 동북아시아 지역에서 구름의 존재 시 에어로솔 층에 의한 복사특성을 분석하였다. 복사전달 모의 결과는 구름이 하부에 존재하는 경우에 에어로솔 층의 고도가 높아짐에 따라 대기 온난화 효과가 증가하였다. 이러한 관계는 에어로솔의 광 흡수성이 커질수록, 지표 반사도가 증가할수록 비례하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 연구대상지역 ($20-50^{\circ}N$, $110-140^{\circ}E$)에서 주요 에어로솔 이벤트 사례에 대하여, UV Absorbing Aerosol Index (AAI) derived from Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), cloud parameters derived from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectro-radiometer (MODIS), with Upward Shortwave Flux (USF) Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) 위성관측자료를 이용하여 광 흡수성 에어로솔에 의한 영향을 정량적으로 분석하였다. 각 사례에 대한 평균적인 복사효과는 약 6 - 26 %에 해당하는 상향 단파 복사량의 감쇄효과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 에어로솔에 의한 직접효과와 간접효과를 정량화 하기 위한 중요성을 설명해 준다.

This paper describes a method for a falling weight impact test to estimate the impact energy absorbing characteristics and impact strength of CFRP (Carbon-fiber reinforced plastics) laminate plates based on considerations of stress wave propagation theory, which were converted to measurements of load and displacement verses time. The delamination area of impacted specimens for the different ply orientations was measured with an ultrasonic C-scanner to determine the correlation between impact energy and delamination area. The energy absorbed by a quasi-isotropic specimen having four interfaces was higher than that of orthotropic laminates with two interfaces. The more interfaces, the greater the energy absorbed. The absorbed energy of a hybrid specimen embedding GFRP (Glass-fiber reinforced plastics) layer was higher than that of normal specimens. Also, a falling weight impact tester was built to evaluate the characteristics and impact strength of CFRPs.

본 연구에서는 실리콘 wafer위에 sputtering방법으로 진공증착된 CoNbZr 비정질 박막을 Nd:YAG 레이저로 식각하기 위한 실험을 했는데, 금속의 경우 표면에서 빛의 반사율이 매우 크기 때문에 파장이 $1.06{\mu\textrm{m}}$인 Nd:YAG 레이저의 에너지를 흡수하는 것이 매우 어려우므로 식각이 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 그래서 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 새로운 시도로서 본 연구에서는 빛의 흡수율이 좋은 검은색의 polymer막을 금속박막의 표면에 도포하고 이 polymer막 위에 레이저를 조사해서 금속박막의 식각하는 실험을 실시하였다. 기존의 방법으로는 laser power가 332W나 되는데도 식각이 거의 일어나지 않았지만 본 연구의 방법을 이용했을 때는 laser power가 114W로 1/3정도 밖에 안 되는데도 레이저 식각이 비교적 양호하게 이루어졌다. 이는 검은색의 polymer층이 Nd:YAG 레이저 에너지의 흡수 및 전달 층의 역할을 하기 때문인 것으로 생각된다.
