A new flexible TFT backplane structure with improved mechanical reliability is proposed. Amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) thin film transistors based on this structure have been fabricated on a polyimide substrate, and the resultant mechanical durability has been evaluated in a cyclic bending test. The panel can withstand 10,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of 5 mm without any noticeable TFT degradation. After 10K bending cycles, the change of threshold voltage, mobility, sub-threshold slope, and gate leakage current were only -0.22V, -0.13$cm^2$/V-s, -0.05V/decade, and $-3.05{\times}10^{-13}A$, respectively.

This study demonstrated the feasibility of tape casting method to fabricate soda borosilicate glass-coated stainless steel electrostatic chucks(ESC) for low temperature semiconductor processes. Glass coating on the stainless steel substrate was 125 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thick. The adhesion of glass coating was found to be excellent such that it was able to withstand temperature cycling to over $300^{\circ}C$ without cracking and delamination. The electrostatic clamping pressure generally followed the theoretical voltage-squared curve except at elevated temperatures and high applied voltages. The deviations at elevated temperatures and high applied voltages are due to increased leakage current as the electrical resistivity of glass coating drops.

The eco-friendly technologies have been extended as matter of international concern due to various diseases and syndromes according to an environmental pollution. In this study, we have manufactured a ceramic cluster with thick film type for anion generation equipment which is maximized anion but minimized ozone contents generated. To develop the formulation of ceramic cluster, we conducted the $Mg_2SiO_4$ powders doped with 10 vol% glass frits as Na-Zn-B-O system and sintered at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours in air for starting materials and investigated the matching properties between the Ag-Pd electrode and the starting materials. The sintered sample for the composition of cluster has 6.7 of dielectric constant and 32 kV/mm of withstand voltage. The yield of anions was measured according to an electrode pattering, discharge gap between electrode, and thickness of electrode protective layer in the cluster of thick film type. We have manufactured the ceramic clusters with optimized thick film structure that have an anion over a hundred particles and the ozone of 0.6 ppb generated.

In order to obtain superior breakdown properties of Epoxy/$SiO_2$ composite materials at room and high temperature, the simultaneous interpenetrating polymer networks(SIN) is introduced into the Epoxy resin. As a result, it is observed that dielectric breakdown strength tends to increase according to the following order ; Epoxy/$SiO_2$ specimens, specimens treated with coupling agent and SIN introduced specimens which have stable temperature characteristics at room and high temperature. For introducing SIN Epoxy/$SiO_2$ composite material, rise of glass transition temperature and suppression of defects in its internal structure is achieved. This in turn improves the dielectric breakdown strength and the heat proof property of Epoxy/$SiO_2$ composite materials.

In this article, we investigated the various influencing factors that degraded the lifetime of suspension insulators in 154 kV transmission lines, and showed the possible solutions to avoid such breakdowns. With respect to achieve safety, reliability and aesthetical considerations, the characteristics of transmission and distribution network power cables should be improved. Suspension insulators are particularly important to study, as they have developed to be the main component of transmission lines due to their ability to withstand the electrical conductivity of high-voltage power transmission. Suspension insulators are mostly made from glass, rubber and ceramic material due to their high resistivity. In Korea, porcelain suspension insulators are typically used in the transmission line system, as they are cheaper and more flexible compared to other types of insulators. This is effective from preventing very high and steep lightening impulse voltages from causing the breakdown of suspension insulators used in power lines. Other influential factors affect the lifetime of suspension insulators that we studied include temperature, water moisture, contamination, mechanical vibration and electrical stress.

In case of developing new motor, many examinations was tested to decide a motor efficiency and reliability. To give reliability judgment, traction motor winding insulation was tested by electrical method after appling electrical, heat, mechanical, environmental stress. In this study, stator form-wound winding of traction motor in urban transit E.M.U was tested by accelerative thermal degradation test. Stator form-wound winding was tested on the accelerative degradation composed of heat, vibration, moisture, overvoltage and researched insulation resistance, dielectric loss, partial discharge for insulation degradation properties, evaluated withstand voltage. Degradation temperature was $230[^\circ{C}]$, $250[^\circ{C}]$, $270[^\circ{C}]$, for stator form-wound winding respectively. On the test results of accelerative thermal degradation, insulation properties were relied all temperature until 10 times and expected life was evaluated by the rule of reducing $10[^\circ{C}]$ life into halves. Expected life was 31.8 years. It is guaranteed insulation reliability because of exceeding 25 years life times as considering.

Most overhead transmission lines in Korea run over the mountain; however, only little study has been made for the effect of mountain fire on polymeric insulator for transmission lines, though the study is significantly required, Therefore, in this study, the authors observed the deformation of the sheds of the insulator under fire, varying the ignition time using artificial ignition testing equipment, and investigated electrical and mechanical characteristics of the insulator through dry withstand voltage test, impulse flashover test and tensile load test. As the results of the tests, the following conclusions were obtained, First, when the insulator was subjected to the fire, the electrical characteristics were slightly reduced, but there was no change on the mechanical characteristics, Secondly, the sheds and sheath of the insulator were not non-flammable but less-flammable. These two results show the high mechanical stability and durability of the insulator under severe fire condition, though the electrical characteristics can be deteriorated as the time that the insulator is subjected to fire, goes by.

Recently, the development of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs) has been required as power demands increase in the power system. A distribution-level prototype resistive SFCL using coated conductor (CC) has been developed by Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. and Yonsei University for the first time in the world. The ratings of the SFCL are 13.2kV/630A at normal operating condition. A novel non-inductive winding method is used in fabricating coils so there is almost zero impedance during normal operation. The distribution SFCL is cooled by sub-cooled liquid nitrogen $(LN_2)$ of 65K and 3 bar to enhance cryo-dielectric performance, critical current density, and thermal conductivity. In order to make reliable operation of an SFCL in real power systems, we monitored and controled its operation conditions by using supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) method. Thus, a monitoring system for the SFCL employing information technology (IT) is proposed and developed to be on the lookout for the operation conditions such as inside temperature, inside pressure, $LN_2$ level, voltage and current. Since operation temperature should be kept constant, bang-bang control for temperature feedback with a heater attached to the cold head of cryo-cooler is applied to the system. Short-circuit tests with prospective fault current of 10kA and AC dielectric withstand voltage tests up to 143kV for 1 minute were successfully performed at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute. This paper deals with the development of a distribution level SFCL and its monitoring system for reliable operation.
