Screen printing method is a common way to fabricate the crystalline silicon solar cell with low-cost and high-efficiency. The screen printing metallization use silver paste and aluminum paste for front and rear contact, respectively. Especially the rear contact between aluminum and silicon is important to form the back surface filed (Al-BSF) after firing process. BSF plays an important role to reduces the surface recombination due to $p^+$ doping of back surface. However, Al electrode on back surface leads to bow occurring by differences in coefficient of thermal expansion of the aluminum and silicon. In this paper, we studied the properties of mono crystalline silicon solar cell for rear electrode with aluminum and aluminum-boron in order to characterize bow and BSF of each paste. The 156*156 $m^2$ p-type silicon wafers with $200{\mu}m$ thickness and 0.5-3 ${\Omega}\;cm$ resistivity were used after texturing, diffusion, and antireflection coating. The characteristics of solar cells was obtained by measuring vernier callipers, scanning electron microscope and light current-voltage. Solar cells with aluminum paste on the back surface were achieved with $V_{OC}$ = 0.618V, JSC = 35.49$mA/cm^2$, FF(Fill factor) = 78%, Efficiency = 17.13%.

Non-volatile memories using ferroelectric-gate field-effect transistors (Fe-FETs) with a metal/ferroelectric/semiconductor gate stack (MFS-FETs) make non-destructive read operation possible. In addition, they also have features such as high switching speed, non-volatility, radiation tolerance, and high density. However, the interface reaction between ferroelectric materials and Si substrates, i.e. generation of mobile ions and short retention, make it difficult to obtain a good ferroelectric/Si interface in an MFS-FET's gate. To overcome these difficulties, Fe-FETs with a metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor gate stack (MFIS-FETs) have been proposed, where insulator as a buffer layer is inserted between ferroelectric materials and Si substrates. We prepared $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) film as a ferroelectric layer and $LaZrO_x$ (LZO) film as a buffer layer on p-type (100) silicon wafer for making the MFIS-FET devices. For definition of source and drain region, phosphosilicate glass (PSG) thin film was used as a doping source of phosphorus (P). Ultimately, the n-channel ferroelectric-gate FET using the SBT/LZO/Si Structure is fabricated. To examine the ferroelectric effect of the fabricated Fe-FETs, drain current ($I_d$) versus gate voltage ($V_g$) characteristics in logarithmic scale was measured. Also, drain current ($I_d$) versus drain voltage ($V_d$) characteristics of the fabricated SBT/LZO/Si MFIS-FETs was measured according to the gate voltage variation.

sol-gel 방법으로 순수한 $TiO_2$와 Pb가 10 mol % 첨가된 $TiO_2(Pb_xTi_{1-x}O_2$(x = 0.1)) 분말과 박막을 제조하였다. $TiO_2$제조에는 titanium isopropoxide와 ethanol이 $Pb_xT_{1-x}O_2$(x = 0.1) 제조에는 lead acetate trihydrate와 titanium triisopropoxide monoacethylacetonate이 사용되었다. P-type Si(100) wafer, ITO glass 기판 위에 sol-gel spin-coating방법으로 박막을 형성시켰으며 상(phase)의 형성과 결정화를 위해서 400~$800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하였다 준비된 분말 및 박막의 특성은 TGA/DTA, XRD, SEM, UV-visible spectrometer를 이용하여 검토하였다. XBD 측정 결과 A(101)면으로 우선 배향된 다결정성 anatase 형의 분말 및 박막을 얻을 수 있었고 Pb가 첨가된 박막에 대한 d-값의 작은 변화가 관측되었는데 이는 Pb가 $TiO_2$살창으로 들어왔음을 의미한다. UV-visible투과 스펙트럼측정 결과에 의하면 Pb가 첨가된 박막에서 투과 스펙트럼의 흡수파장이 장파장쪽으로 이동하는데 이는 Pb가 첨가되면 밴드 갭의 축소가 일어남을 의미한다.

SiC는 큰 에너지 밴드 갭을 갖고, 불순물 도핑에 의해 p형 및 n형 전도의 제어가 용이해서 고온용 전자부품 소재로 활용이 가능한 재료이다. 특히 $N_2$ 분위기, $2000^{\circ}C$에서 ${\beta}-SiC$ 분말로부터 제조한 다공질 n형 SiC 반도체의 경우, $800{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$에서의 도전율 값이 단결정 SiC와 비교해서 비슷하거나 오히려 높은 값을 나타내었으며, 반면에 열전도율은 치밀한 SiC 세라믹스와 비교시 1/10~1/30 정도로 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서는 소결온도를 낮추기 위해 n형 ${\beta}-SiC$에 함침 시킨 polycarbosilane (PCS)의 열분해에 의한 반응소결 공정 ($1400{\sim}1600^{\circ}C$)으로 다공질 소결체를 제작하였다. 함침 및 소결공정($N_2$ 분위기, $1600^{\circ}C$, 3시간)을 반복함에 따라 상대밀도는 크게 증가하지 않았지만 Seebeck 계수 및 도전율은 크게 증가하였다. 본 연구에서의 열전변환 효율을 반영하는 power factor는 고온에서 상압소결 공정으로 제작한 다공질 SiC 반도체에 비해 1/100~1/10 정도 작게 나타났지만, 미세구조 및 캐리어 밀도를 정밀하게 제어하면, 본 연구에서의 반응소결 공정으로 제작한 SiC 반도체의 열전물성은 크게 향상될 것으로 판단된다.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have attracted much attention as a promising material for transparent conducting films (TCFs), due to their superior electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength, and complete flexibility as well as their one-dimensional morphological features of extremely high length-to-diameter ratios. This study investigated three kinds of SWCNTs with different purities: as-produced SWCNTs (AP-SWCNTs), thermally purified SWCNTs (TH-SWCNTs), thermally and acid purified SWCNTs (TA-SWCNTs). The purity of each SWCNT sample was assessed by considering absorption peaks in the semiconducting ($S_{22}$) and metallic ($M_{11}$) tubes with UV-Vis NIR spectroscopy and a metal content with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The purity increased as proceeding the purification stages from the AP-SWCNTs through the thermal purification to the acid purification. The samples containing different contents of SWCNTs were dispersed in water using sodium dodecyl benzensulfate (SDBS). Aqueous suspensions of different purities of SWCNTs were prepared to have similar absorbances in UV-Vis absorption measurements so that one can make the TCFs possess similar optical transmittances irrespective of the SWCNT purity. Transparent conductive SWCNT networks were formed by spraying an SWCNT suspension onto a poly(ethyleneterephthalate) (PET) substrate. As expected, the TCFs fabricated with AP-SWCNTs showed very high sheet resistances. Interestingly, the TH-SWCNTs gave lower sheet resistances to the TFCs than the TA-SWCNTs although the latter was of higher purity in the SWCNT content than the former. The TA-SWCNTs would be shortened in length and be more bundled by the acid purification, relative to the TH-SWCNTs. For both purified (TH, TA) samples, the subsequent nitric acid ($HNO_3$) treatment greatly lowered the sheet resistances of the TCFs, but almost eliminated the difference of sheet resistances between them. This seems to be because the electrical conductivity increased not only due to further removal of surfactants but also due to p-type doping upon the acid treatment. The doping effect was likely to overwhelm the effect of surfactant removal. Although the nitric acid treatment resulted in the similar. electrical properties to the two samples, the TCFs of TH-SWCNTs showed much lower sheet resistances than those of the TA-SWCNTs prior to the acid treatment.

고주파 반응성 스퍼터링에 의하여 ZnSe/GaAs 박막을 성장하였다. 박막성장을 위한 본 시스템에서의 최적조건을 찾기 위하여 Ar 압력, sputter 입력전력, 기판온도, 기판과 target 간격의 변화 등을 시도하였다. 성장된 결정의 표면과 격면을 전자현미경으로 관찰했을 때 표면이 균일하게 성장되었으며 기판과 박막의 계면이 평활함을 알 수 있었다. DCRC 측정에 의해 격자 부정합에 의한 변형과 부정합률을 구했다. Photoluminescence 측정으로부터 질소를 주입하지않고 성장한 ZnSe/GaAs 시료는 bound exciton $I_2$세기가 $I_1$보다 우세하게 나타났고 bound exciton $I_2$은 깊은 받개준위인 $I_1\;^d$를 나타냄을 확인할 수 있었다. 성장 중에 질소를 주입한 ZnSe/GaAs 시료에서는 $I_1$ 봉우리가 $I_2$봉우리보다 세기가 매우 컸으며 반폭치값도 작게 나타났다. 이때 bound exciton $I_1$의 근원은 질소의 doping으로 인하여 방출되는 봉우리이며 p형 ZnSe/GaAs 박막으로 성장되었음을 확인하였다.

In this work we have investigated electrical and optical properties of interface for ITO/Si with shallow doped emitter. The ITO is prepared by DC magnetron sputter on p-type monocrystalline silicon substrate. As an experimental result, The transmittance at 640nm spectra is obtained an average transmittance over 85% in the visible range of the optical spectrum. The energy bandgap of ITO at oxygen flow from 0% to 4% obtained between 3.57eV and 3.68eV (ITO : 3.75eV). The energy bandgap of ITO is depending on the thickness, sturcture and doping concentration. Because the bandgap and position of absorption edge for degenerated semiconductor oxide are determined by two competing mechanism; i) bandgap narrowing due to electron-electron and electron-impurity effects on the valance and conduction bands (> 3.38eV), ii) bandgap widening by the Burstein-Moss effect, a blocking of the lowest states of the conduction band by excess electrons( < 4.15eV). The resistivity of ITO layer obtained about $6{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ at 4% of oxygen flow. In case of decrease resistivity of ITO, the carrier concentration and carrier mobility of ITO film will be increased. The contact resistance of ITO/Si with shallow doped emitter was measured by the transmission line method(TLM). As an experimental result, the contact resistance was obtained $0.0705{\Omega}cm^2$ at 2% oxygen flow. It is formed ohmic-contact of interface ITO/Si substrate. The emitter series resistance of ITO/Si with shallow doped emitter was obtained $0.1821{\Omega}cm^2$. Therefore, As an PC1D simulation result, the fill factor of EWT solar cell obtained above 80%. The details will be presented in conference.

The Ti incorporation at Fe-site in the double perovskite lattice of $Sr_2FeNbO_6$ (SFNO) system is studied. The Ti concentration optimization yielded an efficient photocatalyst. At an optimum composition of Ti as x = 0.07 in $Sr_2Fe_{1-x}Ti_xNbO_6$, the photocatalyst exhibited 2 times the quantum yield for photolysis of $H_2O$ in presence of $CH_3OH$, than its undoped counterpart under visible light (${\lambda}{\geq}420nm$). Heavily Ti-doped $Sr_2Fe_{1-x}Ti_xNbO_6$ lattice exhibited poor photochemical properties due to the existence of constituent impurity phases as observed in the structural characterization, as well as deteriorated optical absorption. The higher electron-density acquired by n-type doping seem to be responsible for the more efficient charge separation in $Sr_2Fe_{1-x}Ti_xNbO_6$ (0.05 < x < 0.4) and thus consequently displays higher photocatalytic activity. The Ti incorporated structure also found to yield stable photocatalyst.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) are transparent in the visible and show conductivity comparable to copper, and are environmentally stable. SWCNT films have high flexibility, conductivity and transparency approaching that indium tin oxide (ITO), and can be prepared inexpensively without vacuum equipment. Transparent conducting Films (TCF) of SWCNTs has the potential to replace conventional transparent conducting oxides (TCO, e.g. ITO) in a wide variety of optoelectronic devices, energy conversion and photovoltaic industry. However, the sheet resistance of SWCNT films is still higher than ITO films. A decreased in the resistivity of SWCNT-TCFs would be beneficial for such an application. We fabricated SWCNT sheet with $KAuBr_4$ on PET substrate. Arc-discharge SWCNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodum dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWCNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate at $100^{\circ}C$. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then treated with AuBr4-, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. $HNO_3$ treated SWCNT films with Au nano-particles have the lowest 61 ${\Omega}$/< sheet resistance in the 80% transmittance. Sheet resistance was decreased due to the increase of the hole concentration at the washed SWCNT surface by p-type doping of $AuBr_4{^-}$.
