Energy storage capacitors based on dielectric ceramics with superior polarization properties and dielectric constant can provide much higher output power density due to their very fast energy charging/discharging rates, which are particularly suitable for operating pulsed-power devices. For an outstanding energy storage performance of dielectric capacitor, a large recoverable energy density could be derived by introducing a slim polarization-electric field hysteresis loop into dielectric materials by various technical approaches. Many research teams have explored various dielectric capacitor technologies to demonstrate high output power density and ultrafast charging/discharging behavior. This article reviews the recent research progress in high-performance dielectric capacitors for pulsed-power electronic applications.

The electron emission and degradation of the ferroelectric Pb($\textrm{Zr}_{0.5}\textrm{Ti}_{0.5}$)$\textrm{O}_3$ ceramics by the pulse electric field have been investigated as a function of the upper electrode diameter. Polarization increased with the decrease of the upper electrode diameter due to the increase of the volume fraction participated in the polarization reversal near the electrode edge. Simulation using ANSYS 5.3 for the electric field distribution showed that the electric field increased near the upper electrode edge of the asymmetric electrode structure. The ferroelectric volume near the upper electrode edge which contributed to the increase of the polarization and the emission charge per electrode diameter were independent on the upper electrode diameter. Polarization and dielectric constant were decreased due to the erosion of the upper electrode with repeating the emission cycles, but they were recovered by the electrode regeneration. The degradation of the ferroelectric surface resulted in the increase of the coercive field and dielectric loss.

In the electroless nickel plating bath which contained nickel sulfate, sodium hypophosphite, boric acid and triethanolamine, effect of their concentration on the rate of deposition was tested by gravimetric method and polarization method. The polarization method that polarize small range of voltage anodicaly and cathodicaly at the mixed potential in the electroless plating bath can calculate mixed current (depositing rate) from $i_{mp}=\frac {i}{\eta}\;\frac{RT}{nF}\;or\;i_{mp}=\frac{i}{\eta}\;\frac{1}{2.3}(\frac{b_a\;\;b_c}{b_c+b_a})$ Where $i_{mp}$ is the depositing current, i is the polarized current, ${\eta}$ is the polarized voltage, $b_a\;and\;b_c$ are the Tafel slop of anodic and cathodic polarization curves respectively. The calculated mixed current ($i_{mp}$) is proportional to the depositing rate obtained by gravimetric method and corresponded mostly to the real depositing rate by multifying supplementary constant. The polarization method can be used for founding inclination of reaction on various concentration of each composition. Decreasing or increasing concentration of triethanolaminc as a complexing agent , the depositing rate is decreased and when the bath contained 25-50mL/L of triethanoloamine, the depositing rate is increased. The depositing rate is increased with increasing the concentration of boric acid, and when the bath contained 0.5M of boric acid, the depositing rate is increased abruptly. The optimum composition of the electroless nickel bath was estimated 0.1M of nickel sulfate, 0.25M of sodium hypophosphite, 0.5M of boric acid, and 25-50mL/L of triethanalamine.

In the present study, the corrosion behavior of aluminum Al-7075 tempered (T-6 condition) alloy was evaluated by immersion testing and electrochemical testing in 1.75% and 3.5% NaCl environment at acidic, neutral and basic pH. The data obtained by both immersion tests and electrochemical corrosion tests (potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests) present that the corrosion rate of the alloy specimens is minimum for the pH=7 condition of the solution due to the formation of dense and well adherent thin protective oxide layer. Whereas the solutions with acidic and alkaline pH cause shift in the corrosion behavior of aluminum alloy to more active domains aggravated by the constant flux of acidic and alkaline ions (Cl^- and OH^-) in the media which anodically dissolve the Al matrix in comparison to precipitated intermetallic phases (cathodic in nature) formed due to T6 treatment. Consequently, the pitting behavior of the alloy, as observed by cyclic polarization tests, shifts to more active regions when pH of the solutions changes from neutral to alkaline environment due to localized dissolution of the matrix in alkaline environment that ingress by diffusion through the pores in the oxide film. Microscopic analysis also strengthens the results obtained by immersion corrosion testing and electrochemical corrosion testing as the study examines the corrosion behavior of this alloy under a systematic evaluation in marine environment.

The electrodeposition of Zn on the automotive parts has been adapted However, because Zn electrodeposit needs to increase thickness for corrosion protection, it has problem of destruction of electrodeposit Zn-based electrodeposit have teen studied for corrosion protection and decreasing electrodeposit thickness. Especially; Zn-Co electrodeposit have much attention In this study, the Composition of Zn-Co electrodeposit in various manufacturing condition such as temperature, current density and electrolyte content was investigated to understand effect of electrolysis condition on Co content of specimen. The results were explained by cathode overvoltage and diffusion coefficient. As the current density increases, the electrolyte temperature decreases, and as the electrolyte concentration decreases, the overvoltage of the cathode increases. As the overvoltage of the cathode increases, the concentration polarization becomes more important than the activation polarization. Concentration polarization is determined by the diffusion of the mass transfer in the diffusion layer. In a constant concentration polarization, a large amount of elements with a large diffusion coefficient is diffused. That is, as the overvoltage of the cathode increases, the Zn content having a large diffusion coefficient increases.

This paper presents an UHF(Ultra High Frequency) band small cavity structured RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) tag antenna with a long reading range, designed to apply on metal cart or pallet for auto-parts logistics. The size of tag antennas is $140{\times}60{\times}10mm^3$, attached on a exporting metal cart, and it can give the information of inventory and logistics of carts. By collecting the exported carts and increasing the recovery rate of missing carts or pallets, the paid import tax can be refunded when the carts are returned back to the manufacture. The tag antenna was equipped with a cover to prevent damage, and the dielectric constant of the cover is considered for the simulation. The reading range of the tag antenna is 12 m using LP(Linear Polarization), 10 m with CP(Circular Polarization) reader antennas. This 920 MHz UHF RFID cavity tag ensures the long reading distance of the antenna regardless of the material of the object where it is attached.

In this study, the polarization reversal characteristics of thin film capacitors with a thickness of 100 nm or less fabricated with ferroelectric polymer were measured and analyzed. For the fixed film thickness, polarization reversal occurred at higher coercive fields as the applied maximum electric field increased. For the fixed maximum electric field, polarization reversal occurred at the same coercive field irrespective of the thickness of the thin film. The proportional constant values between the logarithmic electric field and the logarithmic scale frequency were $0.12{\pm}0.01$ for all measurements. As a result, the ferroelectric polymer capacitors consistently exhibited polarization reversal characteristics without any size effects up to a thickness of 40 nm. This study shows the possibility of a polymer memory device that can operate at low voltage, which is useful for predicting the behavior of a low-voltage operating polymer memory device.

Frequency-domain and time-domain induced polarization methods can provide spectral information about subsurface media. Analysis of spectral characteristics has been studied mainly in the frequency-domain, however, time-domain induced polarization research has recently become popular. In this study, assuming a homogeneous half-space model, an inversion method was developed to extract Cole-Cole parameters from the measured secondary potential or electrical resistivity. Since the Cole-Cole parameters of chargeability, time constant, and frequency index are not independent of each other, various problems, such as slow convergence rate, initial model problem, local minimum problem, and divergence, frequently occur when conventional nonlinear inversion is applied. In this study, we developed an effective inversion method using the initial model close to the true model by introducing a grid search method. Finally, the validity of the developed inversion method was verified using inversion experiments.

The pyroelectricity of poly(vinylidenefluoride) films prepared by varying the draw ratio and the poling field was investigated. As the draw ratio and the electric field on poling of the drawn samples increased, so did the pyroelectric coefficient. But the effect of electric field on the pyroelectricity was greater than that of draw ratio. The pyroelectric and piezoelectric activities could be explained by the polarization using the thermally stimulated current. The relation between pyroelectric coefficient and piezoelectric stress constant showed a good linearity.
