  • The fabrication of silicon nano-master with pillar structures using E-beam lithography and ICP etching was investigated for application of 2-dimensional polymer photonic crystal waveguides with air hole structures. Pillar structures with square, hexagon, dodecagon and circle were successfully fabricated. The diameters and structures of fabricated pillars were measured by CD-SEM and SPM-AFM. It was found that the optimal dose for complete circle pillar structures was 432 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

  • In this paper, the electrical power output of the micro-combustor thermophotovoltiac(TPV) system was analyzed. The system consists of a micro-combustor, photonic crystals(PhCs), and photovoltaic cells(PV cells). The system has a micro-combustor that can achieve over 1,000 K surface temperature by consuming 2.5 g/h hydrogen fuel. Also, this system incorporates current state-of-the-art PhCs surfaces(2D Ta PhCs and Tandem Filter) to increase electrical power output. In addition, InGaAsSb PV cell, which bandgap is 0.55 eV, was applied to convert a wide range of radiative energy. The performance analysis shows that a single micro-combustor TPV system can produce 0.4 W ~ 27.7 W electrical power with the temperature change of emitter(900 K ~ 1,500 K) and PV cell(250 K ~ 400 K).
