최근 다양한 종류의 태양전지의 연구가 수행되고 있으며 그 중 박막형 태양전지 및 웨이퍼 실리콘 기반의 태양전지의 경우 태양전지의 효율 및 생산단가를 충족시키는 것에 연구의 목적이 집중되어 있다. 이러한 사항을 만족시키기 위하여 대면적 PECVD기반의 플라즈마 소스를 적용하려는 연구가 진행되고 있으며 결정질의 실리콘 박막 증착에 있어서 다중접합 태양전지 기준으로 효율 10% 내외를 유지하면서 결정질 기준 증착속도 0.5 nm/sec의 성과를 보이고 있다. 하지만 단위 가격 당 전력 생산 단가의 경쟁력을 확보하기 위하여 증착속도의 고속화에 대한 연구가 더욱 진행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 플라즈마 방전 개념으로서 Gas의 분사되는 Jet을 plasma에 통과시켜 증착속도의 향상을 도모하는 plasma 소스를 제시하였다. 새로운 방전 개념을 이용하여 다양한 공정조건인 압력(3~8 torr), Gas ratio([SiH4]/[H2]), RF power에서의 Plasma의 특성을 확인 하였으며 해당 조건에서의 박막 특성을 확인하여 비정질 기준 3 nm/sec, 결정질 기준 결정화도 약 70%의 조건에서 증착속도 2 nm/sec의 결과를 확인하였다. 또한 해당 조건에서의 효율 및 FF, $V_{oc}$, $I_{sc}$를 확인하여 태양전지로서의 적용가능성을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 해당소스의 대면적 적용가능성을 확인하기 위하여 대면적 plasma 개념의 모델중 하나인 In-line 개념의 plasma source로서의 적용 가능성을 제시하였다.

We investigate the chemical differentiation in F, G, K type stars with and without planets to extend the work by Kang et al. (2011) to various spectral types. Since the primordial chemical composition has been preserved in the stellar atmosphere, stellar metallicity can provide the information on the primordial material, which is the potential building block of planets. Therefore, we can explore the favored conditions for planet formation through the comparison of chemical compositions between planet-host stars (PHSs) and stars without planets. In this work, we analyze 19 F, G, and K type stars. In each spectrum, we measure equivalent widths (EWs) of Fe, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Co, and Ni using TAME (Tools for Automatic Measurement of Equivalent width). The abundances of these species can be derived with the measured EWs and MOOG code (Sneden 1973). Like results by precedent studies, we find that planet-host stars have abundances higher than stars without planets. The typical difference in the abundances of Na, Mn, Co and Ni is $0.4{\pm}0.2dex$. In addition, as found in Kang et al. (2011), Mn is the most different element between PHSs and comparison stars.

Combined nano- and micro-wires (CNMWs) Si arrays were prepared using PR patterning and silver-assisted electroless etching. A $POCl_3$ doping process was applied to the fabrication of CNMWs solar cells. KOH solution was used to remove bundles in CNMWs and the etching time was varied from 30 to 240 s. The lowest reflectance of 3.83% was obtained at KOH etching time of 30 s, but the highest carrier lifetime of $354{\mu}s$ was observed after the doping process at 60 s. At the same etching time, a $V_{oc}$ of 574 mV, $J_{sc}$ of $28.41mA/cm^2$, FF of 74.4%, and Eff. of 12.2% were achieved in the CNMWs solar cell. CNMWs solar cells have potential for higher efficiency by improving the post-process and surface-rear side structure.

Objectives It is very important to diagnose Sasang Constitution (SC) correctly. The aim of this study was to reveal the concordance and validity of the specialists in Sasang Constitutional Medicine (SCM). Methods Three experts who had more than 5 years of experience and used more than 90% of Sasang Constitutional prescription in clinical practice of SCM participated in this study. The data composed of body shape, face, voice, temperament and physio-pathological symptoms were collected in the Korea Constitutional Multicenter Bank and 81 subjects' data were extracted randomly. The experts reviewed all 81 subjects data independently. Kappa analysis was conducted. Results 1) The concordance is from 52.5% to 68.4% among three experts. 2) The validity between individual expert and gold standard is from 54.3% to 63% and Kappa's coefficients are from 0.283 to 0.421. 3) The validity is from 68.5% to 70.7% when two or three experts agree the Sasang constitution independently and 75.7% when all of experts agree it. Conclusions The concordance and validity of experts in SCM seems to be moderate. We think further study is needed.

PV cell modeling is necessary both for software and hardware simulators in analyzing and testing the performance of PV generation systems. Unique I-V curve of a PV cell identifies its own characteristics by electrical equivalent model that is composed of diode constants ($I_o$, $v_t$), photo-generated current ($I_{ph}$), series resistance ($R_s$), and shunt resistance ($R_{sh}$). Photo-generated current can be easily estimated since it is proportional to irradiation level. However, other electrical parameters should be solved from the manufacturer's data sheet that is consisted with three remarkable operating points such as open circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$), short circuit current ($I_{sc}$), and maximum power voltage/current ($V_{MPP}/I_{MPP}$). This paper explains and analyzes mathematical process of a novel PV cell modeling algorithm that was proposed by the authors with the name of "K-algorithm".

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanical and durability characteristics of latex-modified concrete using ultra rapid hardening cement : four types of mechanical tests including compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, flexural strength and bond strength were performed; and seven types of durability tests including resistance of concrete to chloride ion penetration, freeze-thaw resistance, scaling resistance, coefficient of thermal expansion, cracking tendency, abrasion resistance and drying shrinkage were performed. Required material performance of each test was determined in accordance with the Korea specification for repair of concrete and pavement repairing materials. The test results satisfied the required material performances, and presented a good mechanical and durability characteristics. In particularly, the materials showed early development of compressive strength, flexural strength and bond strength at 3 and 4 hours after curing. SEM photos were also taken to investigate the micro structures of the materials after chloride ion penetration test.

In this study, a series of autoclave experiments were conducted in order to investigate the geochemical and mineralogical effects of carbon dioxide on deep subsurface environments. High pressure and temperature conditions of $50^{\circ}C$ and 100 bar, which are representative environments for geological $CO_2$ sequestration, were created in stainless-steel autoclaves for simulating the interactions in the $scCO_2$-groundwater-mineral reaction system. Zeolite, a widespread mineral in Pohang Basin where many researches have been focused as a candidate for geological $CO_2$ sequestration, and groundwater sampled from an 800 m depth aquifer were applied in the experiments. Geochemical and mineralogical alterations after 30 days of $scCO_2$-groundwater-zeolite sample reactions were quantitatively examined by XRD, XRF, and ICP-OES investigations. The results suggested that dissolution of zeolite sample was enhanced under the acidic condition induced by dissolution of $scCO_2$. As the cation concentrations released from zeolite sample increase, $H^+$ in groundwater was consumed and pH increases up to 10.35 after 10 days of reaction. While cation concentrations showed increasing trends in groundwater due to dissolution of the zeolite sample, Si concentrations decreased due to precipitation of amorphous silicate, and Ca concentrations decreased due to cation exchange and re-precipitation of calcite. Through the reaction experiments, it was observed that introduction of $CO_2$ could make alterations in dissolution characteristics of minerals, chemical compositions and properties of groundwater, and mineral compositions of aquifer materials. Results also showed that geochemical reactions such as cation exchange or dissolution/precipitation of minerals could play an important role to affect physical and chemical characteristics of geologic formations and groundwater.

This study was designed to determine whether non-violent criminal and normal control on the basis of concentration of levels of trace mineral and toxic metal by analysis of human scalp hair. The subjects were selected 87 nonviolent criminal from a prison population and 120 normal control from periodic health checks for study. Hair samples were taken from the napes and Minnesota Multiple Personality Inventory (MMPI) was performed also. Five trace mineral (Zn, Cu, Mg, Fe, Na) and two toxic metal (lead, cadmium) contents were determined by an atomic absorption spectrometer. The contents of zinc and magnesium in hair of non-violent criminal were significantly lower than the control group (p<0.01). In the case of lead and cadimum, mean value of criminal group was significantly higher than control group. Significantly higher T-score of MMPI was seen in non-violent criminal group fur psychopathic deviate (Pd), paranoia scale (Pa), and Mania scale (Ma) than control group, but T-score of depression scale (D) was significantly higher in the control group. In the non-violent criminal group, the content of copper inversely proportion to T-score of Hs, D, Hy, Pd, Mf, Pa, Pt, Sc, Si except Ma, also Zinc inversely proportion to T-score of Hy, Mf, Pa, Pt. These results suggest that difference of some hair mineral contents exist between criminal and normal control group. Thus further studies are necessary to determine whether violent and nonviolent criminal group attributed biochemical imbalance with carefully constructed and controlled studies.
