Among single-phase photovoltaic inverters that can avoid excessive leakage current caused by the large parasitic capacitance of photovoltaic panels, a boost converter followed by a half-bridge inverter is the simplest and has the smallest leakage current. However, due to the high DC-link voltage, the rated voltage of the switching devices is high and the switching loss is large. This paper proposes a new circuit topology which can operate as a buck-boost inverter by adding two bidirectional switches to the output side of the half-bridge inverter instead of removing the boost converter. By reducing two stages of power conversion through the high-voltage DC-link to one stage, power loss can be reduced without increasing costs and leakage current. The feasibility of the proposed circuit topology is verified by computer simulation and power loss calculation.

Strategies to facilitate carrier transfer/transport while preserving confined characteristics of isolated nanocrystal quantum dots (NQDs) will be discussed. Specifically, synthesis and characterizations of 1) the fabrication of neat NQD solids (assembled NQD films) with modified surfaces by attaching ligands or by applying physical processes such as heat annealing [J. Phys. Chem. C (2011), 115(3), 607] and 2) coupling NQDs to one-dimensional nanostructures such as single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) [ACS Nano, (2010) 4(1), 324] will be presented. Further, recent achievement ours of fabricating NQDs assemblies into photovoltaic devices for elucidating transfer mechanism witll be discussed.

CdTe thin films for photovoltaic cell devices were deposited on the glass substrates by solution-based deposition methods, at low temperature processing conditions. In order to characterize physical, optical, and electronic properties of CdTe light absorbing polycrystalline material, a series of analysis was carried out in this study.

저온 공정을 통한 저가형의 태양전지를 만들기 위해 ALD 공정 법으로 Zinc oxide의 전도성을 조절하여 전기 증착법을 통해 성장시킨 Cuprous oxide와 p-n heterojunction을 구성하고 태양전지를 제작하였을 때 최적의 효율을 확인하였다. 전도성이 낮아질수록 전착법과의 p-n junction에서의 Jsc값이 증가하여 100도의 Zinc oxide의 경우 0.13%의 태양전지 효율을 보였다.

In this paper, the authors propose a DC-DC boost converter of high efficiency by partial resonant switching mode, the switching devices in a proposed circuit are operated with soft switching and the control technique of those is simplified for switch to drive in constant duty cycle. The circuit has a merit which is taken to increase of efficiency, as it makes to a regeneration at input source of accumulated energy in snubber condenser without loss of snubber inconventional circuit. The proposed converter is deemed the most suitable for high power applications where the power switching devices are used.
