최근의 환경 및 에너지에 대한 관심으로 수요가 증가하고 있는 하이브리드 및 전기 자동차나 태양광발전, 풍력발전용의 인버터기기에는 고에너지밀도 커패시터가 필수적이 되었다. 높은 에너지 밀도를 요구하는 전력전자, 펄스파워 등의 응용분야에 사용되는 고에너지밀도 커패시터는 PET (Polyethylene terephtalate)와 PP (Polypropylene)와 같은 폴리머 유전체를 사용하는 범용 필름 커패시터가 사용되었으나 사용 요구 조건의 한계에 도달하여, 새로운 유전체를 적용하는 커패시터가 절실히 필요한 상황이다. PET와 PP와 같은 유전체는 유전상수가 2~3의 낮은 값을 가지고 있어 고에너지밀도를 구현하기가 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 새롭게 요구되고 있는 고에너지 밀도 커패시터의의 성능을 만족시키기 위하여 $20{\sim}50{\mu}m$ 두께의 PET 필름상에 세라믹 유전체인 $ZrO_2$ 박막을 스퍼터(Sputter) 증착법에 의해 코팅하여 종래의 필름 커패시터와 세라믹 커패시터의 장점을 갖는 커패시터를 제조하기 위한 박막 유전재료의 개발을 목표로 하였다. 수백 nm~수 ${\mu}m$ 두께의 $ZrO_2$ 박막을 스퍼터링 공정조건에 따라 증착한 후 박막의 결정성, 기판과의 부착성, 증착속도, 유전상수, 절연파괴강도, 온도안정성 등을 XRD, SEM, AFM, EDS, XPS, Impedance analyzer 등에 의해 평가하였다. $ZrO_2$ 유전체막은 상온에서 증착하였음에도 정방정(tetragonal)구조의 결정질로 성장하였고 증착압력이 증가함에 따라 주피크의 세기가 감소하였다. 증착 중 산소가스를 주입하였을 경우에도 결정질막으로 성장하였다. 증착막들은 산소가스의 양이 증가함에 따라 짙은 흰색으로 변하였으며 PET 기판과의 접착력도 약해졌다. 또한 거칠기는 Ar가스만으로 증착한 경우보다 증가하였으며 24~66 nm의 평균 거칠기값을 보였다. PET위에 Ar가스만으로 증착한 $ZrO_2$의 비유전율은 1kHz에서 116~87의 비유전율을 보여 PET에 비해 매우 우수한 특성을 보였다. $ZrO_2$ 막들은 300kV/cm의 전계에서 대략 10-8A 이하의 누설전류를 보였다. 증착가스비를 달리하여 제조된 시편에서도 유사한 누설전류값을 나타내었다. 300 kV/cm 전후의 전계까지 측정한 $ZrO_2$ 막의 P-E (polarization-electric field) 특성을 확인하였는데, 5 mTorr의 압력에서 증착한 막은 253 kV/cm에서 $5.5{\mu}C/cm^2$의 분극값을 보였다. P-E커브의 기울기와 분극량에 따라 에너지밀도가 달라지므로 공정조건에 따라 에너지밀도가 변화됨을 예측할 수 있었다. PET위에 스퍼터 증착한 $ZrO_2$ 유전체막은 5mTorr의 Ar가스분위기에서 제조할 때 가장 안정적인 구조를 보였으며, 고에너지밀도 커패시터에의 적용가능성을 보였다.

Renewable energy refers to solar energy, biomass energy, hydrogen energy, wind power, fuel cell, coal liquefaction and vaporization, marine energy, waste energy, and liquidity fuel made out of byproduct of geothermal heat, hydrogen and coal; it excludes energy based on coal, oil, nuclear energy and natural gas. Developed countries have recognized the importance of these energies and thus have set the mid to long term plans to develop and commercialize the technology and supported them with drastic political and financial measures. Considering the growing recognition to the field, it is necessary to analysis up-to-now achievement of the government's related projects, in the standards of type of renewable energy, management of sectional goals, and its commercialization. Korean government is chiefly following suit the USA and British policies of developing and distributing renewable energy. However, unlike Japan which is in the lead role in solar rays industry, it still lacks in state-directed support, participation of enterprises and social recognition. The research regarding renewable energy has mainly examinedthe state of supply of each technology and suitability of specific region for applying the technology. The evaluation shows that the research has been focused on supply and demand of renewable as well as general energy and solution for the enhancement of supply capacity in certain area. However, in-depth study for commercialization and the increase of capacity in industry followed by development of the technology is still inadequate. 'Cost-benefit model for each energy source' is used in analysis of technology development of renewable energy and quantitative and macro economical effects of its commercialization in order to foresee following expand in related industries and increase in added value. First, Investment on the renewable energy technology development is in direct proportion both to the product and growth, but product shows slightly higher index under the same amount of R&D investment than growth. It indicates that advance in technology greatly influences the final product, the energy growth. Moreover, while R&D investment on renewable energy product as well as the government funds included in the investment have proportionate influence on the renewable energy growth, private investment in the total amount invested has reciprocal influence. This statistic shows that research and development is mainly driven by government funds rather than private investment. Finally, while R&D investment on renewable energy growth affects proportionately, government funds and private investment shows no direct relations, which indicates that the effects of research and development on renewable energy do not affect government funds or private investment. All of the results signify that although it is important to have government policy in technology development and commercialization, private investment and active participation of enterprises are the key to the success in the industry.

Conventional methods of measuring ground resistance and ground resistance field measurement are used to measure voltage drop according to the resistance value of the site by applying current by installing a constant interval of measurement electrode. If the stratified structure of the site site is unique, errors in boundary conditions will occur in the event of back acid and the analysis of the critical ground resistance in the ground design will show much difference from simulation. This study utilizes the Arduino module and smart ground measurement technology in the convergent information and communication environment to develop a reliable smart land resistance measuring device even if the top layer of land is unique, to analyze the land resistance and accumulate data to predict the change in the age of the land. Considering the topographical characteristics of the site, we propose a ground resistance measuring device and its method of measuring ground resistance so that the auxiliary electrode can be installed by correctly positioning the angle and distance in measuring ground resistance. Not only is ground resistance value obtained through electrodes installed to allow accurate ground resistance values to be selected, but it can also be used as a useful material for installing electrical facilities in similar areas. Moreover, by utilizing reliable data and analyzing the large sections of the site, a precise analysis of the site, which is important in ground design as well as construction cost, is expected to be used much in ground facility design such as potential rise.

The Korean government made the 2nd Energy Basic Plan to achieve 11% of new and renewable energies distribution rate until 2035 as a response to cope with international discussion about greenhouse gas emission reduction. Renewable energies include solar thermal, photovoltaic, bioenergy, wind power, small hydropower, geothermal energy, ocean energy, and waste energy. New energies contain fuel cells, coal gasification and liquefaction, and hydrogen. As public and private investment to enhance the distribution of new and renewable energies, it is necessary to clarify the economic effects of the new and renewable energies sector. To the end, this study attempts to apply an input-output analysis and analyze the economic effects of new and renewable energies sector using 2012 input-output table. Three topics are dealt with. First, production-inducing effect, value-added creation effect, and employment-inducing effect are quantified based on demand-driven model. Second, supply shortage effects are analyzed employing supply-driven model. Lastly, price pervasive effects are investigated applying Leontief price model. The results of this analysis are as follows. First, one won of production or investment in new and renewable energies sector induces 2.1776 won of production and 0.7080 won of value-added. Moreover, the employment-inducing effect of one billion won of production or investment in new and renewable energies sector is estimated to be 9.0337 persons. Second, production shortage cost from one won of supply failure in new and renewable energies sector is calculated to be 1.6314 won, which is not small. Third, the impact of the 10% increase in new and renewable energies rate on the general price level is computed to be 0.0123%, which is small. This information can be utilized in forecasting the economic effects of new and renewable energies sector.
