This paper reports fabrication and characterization of cellulose Electro-Active Paper (EAPap) with increased thickness. Usual thickness of cellulose EAPap was $15{\mu}m$. This thickness needs to be increased to enhance the mechanical force output of EAPap. To fabricate thick cellulose EAPap, the fabrication process parameters including casting and drying processes should be investigated. In this paper, the casting thickness is increased from $800{\mu}m$ to $1500{\mu}m$, and heating times on a hot plate before and after curing process are introduced at 40 and $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 and 60 minutes, respectively. Thickness measurement, Thermal Gravitational Analysis (TGA), UV-transmittance, Young's modulus, and piezoelectric charge constant are measured. Heated EAPaps with increased thickness have similar TGA result, higher transmittance, higher Young's modulus and lower piezoelectric charge constant.

To prepare the transparent electrode for electronic devices such as flat panel or flexible displays, solar cells, and touch panels; tin doped $In_2O_3$ (ITO) films with low resistivity and a high transparency were fabricated using a facing target sputtering (FTS) system at the various oxygen gas flow rate. The carrier concentration and mobility of ITO films were measured by Hall Effect measurement. And the transmittance was measured using the UV-VIS spectrometer. As a result, we can obtain the ITO thin films prepared at 10% oxygen gas flow ratio, thickness 150 nm with transmittance 85% and resistivity $8.1{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ and surface roughness 5.01 nm.

In this paper, a new experimental method to determine the thermal resistance of building wall was proposed by improving the heat flow method (HFM) based on the air-surface temperature ratio theory. This technique measures the thermal resistance of the wall excluding the inner and outer surface heat transfer resistance. Unlike conventional HFM, this value can be compared directly with the theoretical reference value. Its performance was verified using three mock-up structures with a theoretical thermal transmittance of 0.5, 3.3, and 0.18 W/㎡·K respectively. After measuring the variations in the temperature and heat transfer rate of the mock-ups for 383 hours, the thermal transmittances were determined to be 0.47, 3.10, and 0.18 W/㎡·K, which corresponded to errors of 5.2, 6.2 and 0.5%, respectively, compared to the theoretical values. It was concluded that this technique can directly compare the thermal resistance of the wall between the existent stage and initial stage after construction.

We investigated light extraction film based on polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) for application in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). At least 30 seconds of direct UV irradiation process for curing PDLC film on a bottom-emitting OLEDs was successfully achieved without damage on the intrinsic properties of the OLED. We demonstrated that high haze and transmittance can be tuned simultaneously by controlling the UV curing time. By adding PDLC as an external layer without any additional treatment, the light scattering and extraction is increased. Consequently, a PDLC scattering film with 89.8% and 59.9 of total transmittance and haze respectively, achieved about 16% of light intensity enhancement from integrating sphere measurement.

The growing global interest in energy saving is particularly evident in the building sector. The transmitted solar irradiance is an important input in the prediction of the building-energy load, but it is a value that is difficult to measure. In this paper, a calculation method, for which the total horizontal irradiance that can be easily measured is employed, for the measurement of the transmitted solar irradiance through windows is proposed. The method includes a direct and diffuse split model and a variable-transmittance model. The results of the proposed calculation model are compared with the TRNSYS-simulation results at each stage for the purpose of validation. The final results show that the CVRMSE over the year between the proposed model and the reference is less than 30 %, whereby the ASHRAE guideline was achieved.

Cadmium sulfide thin films were deposited on glass substrate by Chemical Mist Deposition from solutions containing equimolar (0.1M) cadmium chloride and thiourea [(NH$_2$)$_2$CS] at a mist velocity of 1.6m/sec. Substrate temperatures were ranged between 200$^{\circ}C$ and 400$^{\circ}C$. The microstructure and semiconducting property of the films were investigated using SEM, X-ray diffraction, UV transmittance measurement and four point probe method. All the films have hexagonal structure and diffraction patterns indicate that the intensity of (112) and (101) reflections increase with increasing substrate temperature, whereas (002) reflection substrate temperature, whereas(002) reflection decrease for substrate temperatures between 250$^{\circ}C$ and 350$^{\circ}C$. The films prepared at lower temperature have a significant number of pinholes due probably to entrapped gaseous reaction. Optical transmittance of the films deposited at 350$^{\circ}C$ was about 75%. Optical bandgap of the films were 2.43eV regardless of substrate temperature. The dark resistivity of the films decreased with increasing substrate temperature up to 300$^{\circ}C$ and increased with further increasing substrate temperature. The films were photosensitive and had dark-to-light resistivity ratios of about 10 at room temperature for a white-light photoexcitation intensity of 50mw/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

In this work, we studied the influence of the dopant elements concentration on the properties of SnO2 thin films deposited by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Hall effect measurement and UV-Vis studies were performed to characterize the deposited films. XRD results showed that the films had polycrystalline nature with tetragonal rutile structure. FE-SEM micrographs revealed that the as deposited films composed of dense microstructures with uniform grain size distribution. All the films show n-type conduction and the best transparent conductive oxide (TCO) performance was obtained on 6 wt% Sb2O5 doped SnO2 film prepared at pO2 of 60mtorr and Ts of 500 ℃. Its resitivity, optical transmittance, figure of merit are 7.8 × 10-4 Ω cm, 85% and 1.2 × 10-2 Ω-1, respectively.

Indium-Tin Oxide (ITO) films were prepared on the commercial glass substrate by the Magnetron Sputtering method. The target was a 90wt.% $In_2O_3$-10wt.% $SnO_2$with 99.99% purity. The ITO films deposited by changing the partial pressure of oxygen gas ($O_2$/(Ar+$O_2$)) of 2, 3 and 5% as well as by changing the substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ or $500^{\circ}C$. The influence of substrate pre-annealing and pre-cleaning on the quality of ITO film were examined, in which the substrate temperature was $500^{\circ}C$ and oxygen partial pressure was 3%. The characteristics of films were examined by the 4-point probe, Hall effect measurement system, SEM, AFM, Spectrophotometer, and X-ray diffraction. The optimum ITO films have been obtained when the substrate temperature is $500^{\circ}C$ and oxygen partial pressure is 3%. At optimum condition, the film showed transmittance of 81%, sheet resistivity of $226\Omegatextrm{cm}^2$, resistivity($\rho$) of $5.4\times10^{-3}\Omega$cm, carrier concentration of $1.0\times10^{19}cm^{-3}$, and carrier mobility of $150textrm{cm}^2$Vsec. From XRD spectrum, c(222) plane was dominant in the case of substrate temperature at $300^{\circ}C$, without regarding to oxygen partial pressure. However, in the case of substrate temperature at $500^{\circ}C$, c(400) plane was grown together with c(222) plane, only for oxygen partial pressure of 2 and 3%. In both case of chemical and ultrasonic cleaning without pre-annealing the substrate, it showed much almost same sheet resistivity, resistivity($\rho$), transmittance, carrier concentration, and carrier mobility. In case of $500^{\circ}C$/60min pre-annealing before ITO film deposited, both transimittance and carrier mobility are better than no pre-annealing, because pre-annealing is supposed to remove alkari ions diffusion from substrate. ITO film deposited on the Corning 0080 sybstrate showed a little bit better sheet resistivity, resistivity($\rho$), transimittance, carrier concentration than the film deposited on commercial glass. But no differences between Corning substrate and pre-annealed commercial glass substrate are found.

졸-겔 공정을 이용하여 유리기판 위에 Al-doped ZnO(AZO) 박막을 제조하였고, AZO 박막의 특성에 대하여 Al 전구체 종류 및 post-annealing 온도가 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. AZO 박막 제조용 졸은 zinc acetate, EtOH, MEA 등을 사용하여 제조하였고, Al doping 을 위한 전구체로는 aluminum nitrate 와 aluminum chloride 를 사용하였다. Sol 내의 Zn 농도는 0.5 mol/l 로 하였고, Al doping 양은 Zn 대비 1 at%로 고정하였다. 유리기판 위에 졸을 spin-coating 한 후 $550^{\circ}C$에서 2 시간 동안 열처리한 후, $N_2$와 $H_2$의 비가 9 : 1인 환원 분위기 내에서 $300^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C,\;500^{\circ}C$인 온도에서 2시간 동안 post-annealing을 진행하였다. 제조된 AZO 박막의 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성은 XRD, FE-SEM, AFM, Hall effect measurement system 및 UV-Visible spectroscopy를 이용하여 분석하였다. Al 전구체로서 aluminum nitrate 를 사용한 경우가 aluminum chloride 를 사용하여 제조한 AZO 박막보다 우수한 광학적, 전기적 특성을 나타내었으며, post-annealing 온도가 증가함에 따라 비저항과 투과율은 감소하였다. $500^{\circ}C$에서 post-annealing한 AZO 박막의 전기비저항 값은 $2{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$이었고, 투과율은 $300^{\circ}C$에서 91%로 가장 높게 나타났다.

본 논문은 ITO 유리를 기판으로 사용하여 CdS 박막을 제작하였다. MDS (Multiplex Deposition Sputter System)을 이용하여 RF power와 증착시간을 변화시키면서 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 시편은 광학적 특성에 대해 분석을 하였다. 본 논문의 목적은 태양전지의 광흡수층에 적용될 수 있는 제작조건을 찾는 것이다. RF power가 50W이고 증착 시간이 10분 일 때, 두께는 64Å로 측정되었다. 100W일?, 두께는 406Å로 측정되었고, 150W일 때는 두꼐는 889Å로 측정되었다. 박막은 RF power가 증가할수록 두께가 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 광투과율 측정한 결과, 550~850nm는 RF power가 50W, 100W, 150W일 때 모두 투과율이 대략 70% 이상으로 관찰되었다. RF power가 증가되면 두께가 증가되고 입자 크기가 커지므로 박막의 밀도가 증가되어 광투과율이 감소되었다. RF power를 100W로 하고 증착시간을 15분 일 때, 밴드갭은 3.998eV로 계산되었다. 증착시간을 20분일 때, 3.987eV이고 150W는 15분에서는 3.965eV이며 20분에서는 3.831eV이다. RF power가 증가하면 밴드갭이 증가하는 것으로 측정되었다. XRD 분석에서 RF power와 증착시간의 변화에 관계없이 2Θ=26.44에서의 회절 피크를 관찰할 수가 있었다. 반치폭은 증착시간이 증가하면 감소되는 것을 알 수가 있었다. 그리고 RF power를 일정하게 하고 증착시간을 증가하면 입자크기는 증가되는 것으로 측정되었다.
