This study reports the root cause of the improved rate performance of $LiFePO_4$ after Cr doping. By measuring the chemical diffusion coefficient of lithium ($D_{Li}$) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the correlation between the electrochemical performance of $LiFePO_4$ and Li diffusion is acquired. The diffusion constants for $LiFePO_4$/C and $LiFe_{0.97}Cr_{0.03}PO_4$/C measured from CV are $2.48{\times}10^{-15}$ and $4.02{\times}10^{-15}cm^2s^{-1}$, respectively, indicating significant increases in diffusivity after the modification. The difference in diffusivity is also confirmed by EIS and the $D_{Li}$ values obtained as a function of the lithium content in the cathode. These results suggest that Cr doping facilitates Li ion diffusion during the charge-discharge cycles. The low diffusivity of the $LiFePO_4$/C leads to the considerable capacity decline at high discharge rates, while high diffusivity of the $LiFe_{0.97}Cr_{0.03}PO_4$/C maintains the initial capacity, even at high C-rates.

This paper have analyzed the change of breakdown voltage for channel doping concentration and device parameters of double gate(DG) MOSFET using two dimensional potential model. The low breakdown voltage becomes the obstacle of power device operation, and breakdown voltage decreases seriously by the short channel effects derived from scaled down device in the case of DGMOSFET. The two dimensional analytical potential distribution derived from Poisson's equation have been used to analyze the breakdown voltage for device parameters such as channel length, channel thickness, gate oxide thickness and channel doping concentration. Resultly, we could observe the breakdown voltage has greatly influenced on device dimensional parameters as well as channel doping concentration, especially the shape of Gaussian function used as channel doping concentration.

This study was conducted to assess the health risk on the volatile organic compounds such as toluene, xylene, and styrene in painting workplace. It was monitored through personal air sampling during working time in selected 5 workplaces and analysed using gas chromatography. For the settlement of exposure situation, there were regarded working conditions such as working hours, yearly working days, and working years. Also, Monte-Carlo simulation was used for the induction of hazard index using toxicity value from IRIS(Integrated risk information system) database. The results of risk assessment were summarized as follows. 1. The air concentration of toluene was $7.096{\pm}15,644ppm,\;2.586{\pm}4.275ppm\;for\;xylene,\;1.914{\pm}5.320ppm$ for styrene in blast painting workplaces. The level of toluene was different significantly compared with the level of xylene and styrene. 2. Computated chronic daily intake values of 95th percentile on toluene, xylene and styrene treated by Monte-Carlo simulation were 9.616, 3.567, 2.782 mg/kg/day, respectively. 3. Computated hazard index values of 75th percentile on toluene, xylene and styrene treated by Monte-Carlo simulation were 3.5, 1.0 and 1.6, respectively. Adverse health effects on the toluene, xylene and styrene would be expected by working exposure in selected 5 workplaces since the hazard indices of three compounds were exceeded 1 in the surroundings of 75th percentile though having the low emerged frequency.

$NaTa_{1-x}Fe_xO_3$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.40$) nanocubes were synthesized by a relatively low temperature hydrothermal method, using $Ta_2O_5$, $FeCl_3$ and NaOH as the precursors. The UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra showed that $NaTa_{1-x}Fe_xO_3$ had significant visible-light-absorbing capability, and the absorption edge of $NaTaO_3$ shifted to longer wavelength with the increase of Fe dopants. Moreover, $NaTa_{1-x}Fe_xO_3$ exhibited room-temperature ferromagnetism when $Fe^{3+}$ occupied $Ta^{5+}$ sites in $NaTaO_3$ crystal lattice. The ferromagnetism is mainly attributed to the superexchange interactions between doped $Fe^{3+}$, rather than the contribution of oxygen vacancies caused by Fe doping. Therefore, Fe doping can simultaneously regulate the optical and magnetic properties of $NaTaO_3$ semiconductor, which will enable its potential applications in multifunctional optical-electronics and opticalspintronics devices.

For the formation of $N^+$ doping, the antimony ions are mainly used for the fabrication of a BJT (bipolar junction transistor), CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor), FET (field effect transistor) and BiCMOS (bipolar and complementary metal oxide semiconductor) process integration. Antimony is a heavy element and has relatively a low diffusion coefficient in silicon. Therefore, antimony is preferred as a candidate of ultra shallow junction for n type doping instead of arsenic implantation. Three-dimensional (3D) profiles of antimony are also compared one another from different tilt angles and incident energies under same dimensional conditions. The diffusion effect of antimony showed ORD (oxygen retarded diffusion) after thermal oxidation process. The interfacial effect of a $SiO_2/Si$ is influenced antimony diffusion and showed segregation effects during the oxidation process. The surface sputtering effect of antimony must be considered due to its heavy mass in the case of low energy and high dose conditions. The range of antimony implanted in amorphous and crystalline silicon are compared each other and its data and profiles also showed and explained after thermal annealing under inert $N_2$ gas and dry oxidation.

A new process is developed to improve the electrical characteristics of high .beta. and low saturation voltage power transistor for lamp solenoid driver application. To prevent punch-through breakdown, appropriate combination of base doping and base width is necessary in the range of operating voltage of the circuit. The optimum values of base doping and sheet resistance are $Q_{D}$= $1.5{\times}10^{14}$atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and $R_{s}$= 350 $\Omega/\square$ base wodtj $W_{B}$= $2.5{\mu}m$respectively. Under this condition it is possible to control $\beta$ of the transistor to 1500, maintaining $VB_{CBO}$ =200V. To reduce scattered distribution of .beta. of the devices on the wafer, it is necessary to improve emittter predeposition process. As a result, scattered distribution of .beta. of the devices on the wafer was reduced to 1/6 by using the new process. To improve collector to emitter forward voltage drop, $V_{ECF}$ of damper diode, an additional silicon etching process is used, which resulted in improving the value of $V_{eCF}$ from 2.8 V to 1.8V. With the suggested process superior device performance and higher yield are achieved.

Recently, lithium transition metal phosphates with an ordered olivine-type structure, $LiMPO_4$ (M=Fe, Mn, Ni, and Co), have attracted extensive attention due to a high theoretical specific capacity (170 mAh/g). The $LiMPO_4$ is the most attractive because of its high stability, low cost, high compatibility with environment. However, it is difficult to attain its full capacity because its electronic conductivity is very low, and diffusion of Li-ion in the olivine structure is slow and the supervalue cation doping was used. In this research, we are used the supervalue cation doping methode such as Cu, Ti, and Mg were partially replace the Fe. The cycling performance resulted of the used $LiM_xFe_{1_x}PO_4$ cathode materials for lithium batteries exhibit excellent high capacity than $LiFePO_4$/Li cells.

Gallium phosphide light emitting diode (LED) has been fabricated first time for pilot lamp and numeric display purposes. Bright red light is obtained in forward bias at very low current of one to five mA. A typical p-n junction is formed by liquid phase epitaxial growth on a n-type gallium physphide substrate. The crystal growth is achieved at about 1300$^{\circ}$K after the equilibrium of the gallium solution followed by tipping operation. The ohmic contact is made by wire bonding by thermal compression technique. The entire process is well fit for laboratory scale to fabricate a few hundred diodes for mainly demonstration purpose. For mass production, a large sum of the capital investment is required. The great merit of gallium phosphide LED is at low current operation, and green light emission is also obtainable by nitrogen doping.

A three-dimensional(3D) Monte Carlo simulator for boron ion implantation into <100>single-crystal silicon considering the mask structure has been developed to predict the mask-dependent impurity doping profiles of the implanted boron at low energies into the reduced area according to the trend of a reduction in the size of semiconductor devices. All relevant important parameters during ion implantation have been taken into account in this simulator. These are incident energy, tilt and rotation of wafer, orientation of silicon wafer, presence of native silicon dioxide layer, dose, wafer temperature, ion beam divergence, masking thickness, and size and structure of open window in the mask. The one-dimensional(1D) results obtained by using the 3D simulator have been compared with the SIMS experiments to demonstrate its capabilities and confirem its reliability, and we obtained relatively accurate 1D doping profiles. Through these 3D simulations considering the hole structure and its size, we found the mask effects during boron ion implantation process.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become popular electrochemical devices. Due to the unique advantages of LIBs in terms of high operating voltage, high energy density, low self-discharge, and absence of memory effects, their application range, which was primarily restricted to portable electronic devices, is now being extended to high-power applications, such as electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electrical vehicles (HEVs). Among various anode materials, $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ (LTO) is believed to be a promising anode material for high-power LIBs due to its advantages of high working potential and outstanding cyclic stability. However, the rate performance of LTO is limited by its intrinsically low electronic conductivity and poor $Li^+$ ion diffusion coefficient. This review highlights the recent progress in improving the rate performance of LTO through doping, compositing, and nanostructuring strategies.
