  • Yttria-stablized zirconia (YSZ) is the most commonly used electrolyte material, but the reduction in working temperature leads to insufficient ionic conductivity. Ceria based electrolytes (GDC) are more attractive in terms of conductivity at low temperature, but these materials are well known to be reducible at very low oxygen partial pressure. The reduction of electrolyte resistivity is necessary to overcome cell performance losses. So, thin YSZ/GDC bilayer technology seems suitable for decreasing the electrolyte resistance at lower operating temperatures. Bilayer electrolytes composed of a galdolinium-doped $CeO_2$ ($Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{1.95}$, GDC) layer and yttria-stabilized $ZrO_2$ (YSZ) layer with various thicknesses were deposited by RF sputtering and E-beam evaporation. The bilayer electrolytes were deposited between porous Ni-GDC anode and LSM cathode for anode-supported single cells. Thin film structure and surface morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), using $CuK{\alpha}$-radiation in the range of 2ce morphol$^{\circ}C$. The XRD patterns exhibit a well-formed cubic fluorite structure, and sharp lines of XRD peaks can be observed, which indicate a single solid solution. The morphology and size of the prepared particles were investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The performance of the cells was evaluated over $500{\sim}800^{\circ}C$, using humidified hydrogen as fuel, and air as oxidant.

  • 연소파를 이용한 로켓 점화장치 등에의 응용으로 관내에서 전파되는 데토네이션에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있으나 그 특성에 관하여 알려진 바는 많지 않다. 본 실험적 연구에서는 프로판-산소 혼합기로 채워진 직경 5mm, 길이 30m의 투명한 관을 이용하여 데토네이션 파의 진행을 고속촬영을 통하여 가시화하였다. 평균 속도를 측정한 결과, 압력이 감소함에 따라 정상적인 Chapman-Jouguet(CJ) 모드에서 약 $0.5V_{CJ}$에 이르는 저속 모드로 평균 속도가 감소하는 천이 영역이 존재한다. 관 길이 전체에 걸쳐 데토네이션 전파의 동적 특성을 관찰한 결과, 천이 영역에서는 데토네이션이 매우 불안정하여 주기적이거나 간헐적인 속도의 출렁임이 발생한다.

  • Hydrogen is seen as one of the important energy vectors of the next century. Hydrogen as a renewable energy source, provides the potential for a sustainable development particularly in the transportation sector. Hydrogen driven vehicles reduce both local as well as global emissions. The laboratory of transporttechnology (University of Gent) converted a GM/Crusader V-8 engine for hydrogen use. Once the engine is optimised, it will be built in a low-floor midsize hydrogen city bus for public demonstration. For a complete control of the combustion process and to increase the resistance to backfire (explosion of the air-fuel mixture in the inlet manifold), a sequential timed multipoint injection of hydrogen and an electronic management system is chosen. The results as a function of the engine parameters (ignition timing. injection timing and duration, injection pressure) we given. Special focus is given to topics related to the use of hydrogen as a fuel: ignition characteristics (importance of electrode distance), quality of the lubricating oil (crankcase gases with high contents of hydrogen), oxygen sensors (very lean operating conditions), noise reduction (configuration and length of inlet pipes). The advantages and disadvantages of a power regulation only by the air to fuel ratio (as for diesel engines) against a throttle regulation (normal gasoline or gas regulation) are examined. Finally the goals of the development of the engine are reached: power output of 90 kW, torque of 300 Nm, extremely low emission levels and backfire-safe operation.

  • The fluorinated amorphous carbon thin films (a-C:F) were deposited by PECVD(plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition). The precursors were $C_{4}F_{8}$ which had a similar ratio of target film's carbon to fluorine ratio, and $Si_{2}H_{6}$/He for capturing excessive fluorine ion. We varied deposition condition of temperature and working pressure to survey the effect of each changes. We measured dielectric constant, composition, and etc. At low temperature the film adhesion to substrate was very poor although the growth rate was very high, the growth rate was very low at high temperature. The EDS(energy dispersive spectroscopy) result showed carbon and fluorine peak for films and Si peak for substrate. There was no oxygen peak.

  • The material that is both conductive in electricity and transparent to the visible ray is called transparent conducting thin film. It has many fields of application such as Solar Cell, Liquid Crystal display, Vidicon on T.V, transparent electrical heater, selective optical filter, and a optical electric device , etc. In the recent papers on several TCO( transparent conducting oxide ) material, the study is mainly focusing on ITO(indium tin oxide) because ITO shows good results on both optical and electrical properties. Nowaday, in the development of LCD(Liquid Crystal display), the low temperature process to reduce the production cost and to deposit ITO on polymer substrate (or low melting substrate) has been demanded. In this study, we prepared indium tin oxide(ITO) by a cylindrical DC magnetron sputtering with Indium-tin (9:1) alloy target instead of indium-tin oxide target. The resistivity of the film deposited in oxygen partial pressure of 5% and substrate temperature of 140.deg. C. is 1.6*10$\^$-4/.ohm..cm with 85% optical transmission in viaible ray.

  • To develop wide-band noise absorbers with a special design for low-frequency performance, this study proposes a tin oxide (Sn-O) thin films as the noise absorbing materials in a microstrip line. Sn-O thin films were deposited on polyimide film substrates by reactive sputtering of the Sn target under flowing $O_{2}$ gas, exhibiting a wide variation of surface resistance (in the range of $10^{0}-10^{5}{\Omega}$) depending on the oxygen partial pressure during deposition. The microstrip line with characteristic impedance of $50\Omega$ was used for the measurement of noise absorption by the Sn-O films. The reflection parameter $(S_{11})$ increased with a decrease of surface resistance due to an impedance mismatch at the boundary between the film and the microstrip line. Meanwhile, the transmission parameter $(S_{21})$ diminished with a decrease of surface resistance resulting from an Ohmic loss of the Sn-O films. The maximum noise absorption predicted at an optimum surface resistance of the Sn-O films was about $150{\Omega}$. For this film, greater power absorption is predicted in the lower frequency region (about 70% at 1 GHz) than in conventional magnetic sheets of high magnetic loss, indicating that Ohmic loss is the predominant loss parameter for the conduction noise absorption in the low frequency band.

  • 저손실 Mn-Zn 페라이트의 제조공정과 첨가제가 코아의 미세구조와 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. C\ulcorner와 SiO2를 원료분체혼합시에 첨가하는 경우보다 하소분체의 재분쇄시에 첨가할 때가 작고 균일한 소결체를 얻을 수 있었다. 산소분압(Po2)이 높아짐에 따라 미세구조가 불균일해졌고 DF(disaccomodation fac-색)가 증가하였다. 또한 하소온도가 높고 분쇄시간이 짧은 소결체의 경우 치밀한 속도가 감소하여, 130$0^{\circ}C$까지 정상입성장거동을 보였고, 따라서 높은 소결온도에서도 비교적 저손실 Mn-Zn 페라이트를 얻을 수 있었다. 장시간 분쇄하거나 하소온도가 낮은 시편의 경우는 치밀화속도의 증가에 기인하여 120$0^{\circ}C$이하의 저온 소결시 미립자의 저손실 Mn-Zn 페라이트를 얻을 수 있었으나 소결온도 125$0^{\circ}C$이상에서는 비정상 입성장을 유발시켰다.

  • Low temperature atmospheric pressure plasmas (APPs) have been known to be effective for living cell inactivation in the water [1]. Many earlier research found that pH level of the solution was changed from neutral to acidic after plasma treatment. The importance of the effect of acidity of the solution for cell treatments has already been reported by many experiments. In addition, several studies have demonstrated that the addition of a small amount of oxygen to pure helium results in higher sterilization efficiency of APPs [2]. However, it is not clear yet which species are key factors for the cell treatment. To find key factors, we used GMoo simulation. We elucidate the processes through which pH level in the solution is changed from neutral to acidic after plasma exposure and key components with pH and air variation with using GMoo simulation. First, pH level in a liquid solution is changed by He+ and He(21S) radicals. Second, O3 density decreases as pH level in the solution decreases and air concentration decreases. It can be a method of removing O3 that cause chest pain and damage lung tissue when the density is very high. H2O2, HO2 and NO radicals are found to be key factors for cell inactivation in the solution with pH and air variation.

  • 본 논문에서는 라만 분광법과 레이저 유도 플라즈마 분광법(LIPS)을 단일 유닛으로 결합한 새로운 형태의 이중 펄스 레이저 시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구는 라만 분광법으로부터 분자 신호를 추출하면서, 동시에 레이저 유도 플라즈마 방출 신호를 향상시키고자 하였다. 달의 대기압과 같은 저압 조건에서는 플라즈마 신호 검출은 낮은 전자 밀도와 짧은 지속시간, 빠른 플라즈마 팽창 때문에 어려움을 마주치게 된다. 또한, 우주 탐사를 목표로 하는 검출 시스템의 통합에서, 레이저 시스템의 무게 최소화는 payload의 무게 측면에서 중요하다. 0.07 torr 미만의 저압 조건에서 높은 분해능의 스펙트럼 데이터를 제공하는 본 연구의 동시 분자 및 원자 검출방식은 8개의 암석을 이용하여 증명되었다. 이중 펄스 레이저로부터 생성된 연속된 플라즈마는 종래의 플라즈마 분광과 비교하여 방해석의 산소와 칼슘 신호를 2배 향상시킬 수 있었다.
