In this study, we have investigated the power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells utilizing conjugated polymer/fullerene bulk-hetero junction(BHJ) device structures. We have fabricated poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT), poly[2methoxy-5-(3',7'-dimethyloctyl-oxy)-1-4-phenylenevinylene] as an electron donor, [6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$ butyric acid methylester(PCBM-$C_{61}$)as an electron acceptor, and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) used as a hole injection layer(HIL), after fabricated active layer, between active layer and metal cathode(Al) deposited LiF interlayer(5 nm). The properties of fabricated organic solar cell(OSC) devices have been analyzed as a function of different thickness. The electrical characteristics of the fabricated devices were investigated by means J-V, fill factor(FF) and power conversion efficiency(PCE). We observed the highest PCEs of 0.628%(MDMO-PPV:PCBM-$C_{61}$) and 2.3%(P3HT:PCBM-$C_{61}$) with LiF inter-layer at the highest thick active layer, which is 1.3times better than the device without LiF inter-layer.

T-TI24T는 꽤 낮은 호모에너지 준위(-5.33 eV)를 갖고 있다. 서로 다른 T-TI24T와 (6)-1-(3-(methoxycarbonyl)-{5}-1-phenyl[5,6]-fullerene(PCBM)의 무게비를 갖는 블렌드를 광활성층으로 하는 태양전지를 제작하여 특성을 살펴본 결과 고분자와 PCBM의 비율이 1:3일 때 가장 최적화된 결과를 보였으며, 이 때 광전변환 효율과 개방전압은 각각 0.199%와 0.99였다. T-TI24T 기반 태양전지들은 비록 매우 작은 광전변환 효율을 갖지만 잘 알려진 P3HT:PC61BM으로 구성된 태양전지와 비교해 큰 매우 큰 개방전압을 갖는다(약 0.5 V).

In this study, we describe a simple selective etching method that produces noncurling, freestanding, large-area, aligned $TiO_2$ nanotube (NT) with doubly ends opened. The novel selective etching process only removed the thin 2nd bottom layer from the physically and chemically stable thick amorphous 1st top layer under thermal treatment at $250^{\circ}C$, yielding ordered doubly open-ended NT (DNT) that could be easily transferred to an FTO substrate for the fabrication of front-illuminated dye sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The DNT-DSCs yielded a higher PCE (8.6%) than was observed from $TiO_2$ nanoparticle (TNP)-based DSCs (7.3%), for comparable film thicknesses of $16{\mu}m$, despite of 20% decreased amount of dye. Intensity-modulated photocurrent and photovoltage spectroscopy (IMPS and IMVS, respectively) revealed that the DNT-DSCs exhibited electron lifetimes that were 10 times longer than those of TNP-DSCs, which contributed to high device performances.

Transparent and conducting aluminum-doped ZnO electrodes were fabricated by atomic layer deposition methods. The electrode showed the lowest resistivity of $5.73{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ at a 2.5% cyclic layer deposition ratio of Trimethyl-aluminum and Diethyl-zinc chemicals. The electrodes showed minimum resistivity when deposited at a temperature of $225^{\circ}C$. The electrode also showed optical transmittance of about 92% at 300 nm. An organic solar cell made with a 300-nm-thick aluminum-doped ZnO electrode exhibited 2.0% power conversion efficiency.

In this study, we have studied the characteristics of the organic photodiode varying due to the blending conditions of the quantum dots (QDs). The active layer of the photodiode was formed with poly (3-hexylthiophene) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester, and CdSe QDs with and without ZnS shell were blended in the active layer. The photodiode with CdSe/ZnS QDs showed the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) and short-circuit current (Jsc). The performance change of the organic photodiode by X-ray irradiation was also measured. Regardless of X-ray irradiation conditions, the photodiode with CdSe/ZnS QDs showed better stability than other cases.

Ssanghwatang (SHT) has been known to prove effective in the treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED), and its modified formula is widely used in clinical practice. However, its fundamental mechanism of action is not clearly known. It is well known that endothelial cells can achieve the relaxation of vascular smooth muscles by the release of nitric oxide (NO). NO is synthesized by the enzyme NO synthase (NOS) from L-arginine and oxygen. It is widely accepted that NO plays an important role in the relaxation of corpus cavernous smooth muscle and vasculature. In addition, in terms of the penile erection, the NO/cGMP pathway is more potent than the PCE1/cAMP pathway. The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of the erectile effects of SHT by focusing on its direct effects on corpus cavernous smooth muscle cells. We investigated the NOS activity, nitrite concentration and cGMP levels in rat corpus cavernous smooth muscle cell lines activated by SHT extracts. Furthermore, we evaluated the effect of SHT extracts on penile smooth muscle relaxation following oral administration of SHT extract powder to rats by the dosage of 1 g/kg over fifteen days. As a result, we found that SHT stimulated NO release. NOS activity and cGMP levels were increased by SHT respectively. Furthermore, SHT relaxed the corpus cavernous smooth muscle. These results are consistent with the concept that penile erection by SHT is carried out through the NO/cGMP pathway. In conclusion, the present study shows that SHT increases the NOS activity, synthesizes NO and augments the cGMP, which mediates penile erection. Further determination of the SHT mechanism related with the NO/cGMP pathway strongly indicates that SHT can be used as a remedy for erectile impotence.

ITO가 코팅된 PET 기판 위에 P3HT:PCBM으로 이루어진 bulk heterojunction 유기 태양전지 소자를 만들었다. 이렇게 만들어진 유기 태양전지의 flexibility 특성을 측정하기 위해서, 태양전지 소자를 반지름이 다른 원통에 감아서 휘어지게 한 후 AM 1.5의 조명 하에서 전류-전압 특성을 관측하고 소자의 임피던스 분석도 측정하였다. 이때 flexibility 특성 측정의 일관성을 위하여, 단 하나의 유기 태양전지 소자를 만들고, 이 소자를 반지름이 큰 원통에서 부터 휘게 하고난 후 소자의 특성을 측정하고, 점차 작은 원통으로 바꾸어 가면서 측정을 진행하였다. 임피던스 분석 실험 자료로부터 shifted two semicircles이라는 equivalent circuit model를 분석하고 난 후, 이 회로를 구성하는 구성 성분-R(s), R(low f), R(hi f), C(low f), C(hi f)-값의 변화를 원통의 반지름의 변화에 따라 분석하였다. 반지름이 0.75cm일 때, power conversion efficiency (PCE) 값은 초기값에 비해 약 1/3로 줄었고, 반지름이 0.5cm일 때는 약 10%로 줄어 들었다. 나머지 1~2 cm일 때는 거의 변화가 나타나지 않았다. 휘어짐에 따른 이러한 태양전지의 특성의 변화를 임피던스 분석의 Cole-Cole plot의 저 주파수 영역의 반원의 반지름에 가장 큰 영향을 받음을 확인하였고, 저항과 capacitance 값의 변화에 따른 특성에 대해 이번 발표에서 더 자세히 설명할 예정이다.
