In the crystalline silicon solar cells, the full area aluminum_back surface field(BSF) is routinely achieved through the screen-printing of aluminum paste and rapid firing. It is widely used in the industrial solar cell because of the simple and cost-effective process to suppress the overall recombination at the back surface. However, it still has limitations such as the relatively higher recombination rate and the low-to-moderate reflectance. In addition, it is difficult to apply it to thinner substrate due to wafer bowing. In the recent years, the dielectric back-passivated cell with local back contacts has been developed and implemented to overcome its disadvantages. Although it is successful to gain a lower value of surface recombination velocity(SRV), the series resistance($R_{series}$) becomes even more important than the conventional solar cell. That is, it is a trade off relationship between the SRV and the $R_{series}$ as a function of the contact size, the contact spacing and the geometry of the opening. Therefore it is essential to find the best compromise between them for the high efficiency solar cell. We have investigated the optimal design for the local back contact by using PC1D simulation.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of different finishing and polishing techniques on water absorption, water solubility, and microhardness of ceramic or glass-polymer based computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials following thermocycling. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 150 disc-shaped specimens were prepared from three different hybrid materials and divided into five subgroups according to the applied surface polishing techniques. All specimens were subjected up to #4000 grit SiC paper grinding. No additional polishing has been done to the control group (Group I). Other polishing procedures were as follows: Group II: two-stage diamond impregnated polishing discs; Group III: yellow colored rubber based silicone discs; Group IV: diamond polishing paste; and Group V: Aluminum oxide polishing discs. Subsequently, 5000-cycles of thermocycling were applied. The analyses were conducted after 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days of water immersion. Water absorption and water solubility results were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests. Besides, microhardness data were compared by Kruskal-Wallis and MannWhitney U tests (P<.05). RESULTS. Surface polishing procedures had significant effects on water absorption and solubility and surface microhardness of resin ceramics (P<.05). Group IV exhibited the lowest water absorption and the highest microhardness values (P<.05). Immersion periods had no effect on the microhardness of hybrid ceramic materials (P>.05). CONCLUSION. Surface finishing and polishing procedures might negatively affect physical properties of hybrid ceramic materials. Nevertheless, immersion periods do not affect the microhardness of the materials. Final polishing by using diamond polishing paste can be recommended for all CAD/CAM materials.

Crystalline silicon solar cell remains the major player in the photovoltaic marketplace with 80% of the market, despite the development of various thin film technologies. Silicon's excellent efficiency, stability, material abundance and low toxicity have helped to maintain its position of dominance. However, the cost of silicon materials remains a major barrier to reducing the cost of silicon photovoltaics. Using the crystalline silicon wafer with thinner thickness is the promising way for cost and material reduction in the solar cell production. However, the thinner the silicon wafer is, the worse bow phenomenon is induced. The bow phenomenon is observed when two or more layers of materials with different temperature expansion coefficiencies are in contact, in this case silicon and aluminum. In this paper, the solar cells were fabricated with different thicknesses of Al layer in order to reduce the bow phenomenon. With less amount of paste applications, we observed that the bow could be reduced by up to 40% of the largest value with 120 micron thickness of the wafer even though the conversion efficiency decrease by 0.5% occurred. Since the bowed wafers lead to unacceptable yield losses during the module construction, the reduction of bow is indispensable on thin crystalline silicon solar cell. In this work, we have studied on the counterbalance between the bow and conversion efficiency and also suggest the formation of enough back surface field (BSF) with thinner Al layer application.

본 연구의 목적은 Nd:YAG 펄스레이저 조사 후 알루미늄 합금 6061-T6 시편의 표면상태에 대한 표면 거칠기의 영향을 연구하는 것이다. 초기 표면 거칠기를 다르게 하기 위해 다아이몬드 입자($1{\mu}m$)와 연마지(#100, #220, #600, #2400)를 이용하여 표면을 가공하였다. 10 번의 펄스레이저를 조사한 후 주사전자현미경과 광학현미경 그리고 원자현미경을 이용하여 표면상태를 관찰하였다. 그 결과 표면 거칠기가 증가할수록 용융부의 지름이 증가하였는데, 이는 표면 거칠기에 따라 표면부에서 레이저 빔의 다중반사와 다중흡수가 일어나 레이저 빔의 흡수율이 변하기 때문이다. 이를 검증하기 위해 용융부의 지름으로부터 표면 거칠기에 의해 증가하는 상대적인 흡수율을 계산하였으며 평균 표면 거칠기가 증가함에 따라 상대적인 흡수율이 용융부의 지름과 유사한 형태로 증가하는 것을 보였다.

고효율 태양전지로 가기 위해서는 태양전지의 후면 패시베이션은 중요한 역할을 한다. 후면 패시베이션 막으로 사용되는 $Al_2O_3$ 막은 $Al_2O_3/Si$ 계면에서 높은 화학적 패시베이션과 Negative Fixed Charge를 가지고 있어 적합한 Barrier막으로 여겨진다. 하지만 이후에 전면 Metal paste의 소성 공정에 의해 $800^{\circ}C$이상 온도를 올려주게 됨에 따라 $Al_2O_3$ 막 내부에 결합되어 있던 수소들이 방출되어 blister가 생성되고 막 질은 떨어지게 된다. 우리는 blister가 생성되는 것을 방지하기 위한 방법으로 PECVD 장비로 SiNx를 증착하는 공정 중에 $N_2O$ 가스를 첨가하여 SiON 막을 증착하였다. SiON막은 $N_2O$가스량을 조절하여 막의 특성을 변화시키고 변화에 따라 소성시 막에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 공정을 위해 $156{\times}156mm2$, $200{\mu}m$, $0.5-3.0{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and p-type 단결정 실리콘 웨이퍼를 사용하였고, $Al_2O_3$ 막을 올리기 전에 RCA Cleaning 실행하였다. ALD 장비를 통해 $Al_2O_3$ 막을 10nm 증착하였고 RF-PECVD 장비로 SiNx막과 SiON막을 80nm 증착하였다. 소성로에서 $850^{\circ}C$ ($680^{\circ}C$) 5초동안 소성하고 QSSPC를 통해 유효 반송자 수명을 알아보았다.

Ways to efficiently manufacture gloss exposed mass concrete at an inexpensive price, in other words, ways to paste transparent transfer paper onto the surface of a combined mold has been designated as New Technology Article 191 by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. But if the difference in the coefficient of linear expansion between the mold's and transfer paper's material causes temperature to rise or fall, a wrinkly surface can appear. Therefore this study, by experimentally comparing the deformation characteristics between the mold material and transfer paper material upon changes in temperature, seeks to serve as a basic reference point for selecting the optimal transfer paper for different mold types. Study results revealed that for molds, polyester resin transfer paper is optimal, and for aluminum molds, acrylic resin transfer paper is.

Titania is usually used in sun-screens, tooth paste, and other daily used objects as a pigment. However, scientists have focused on titania as photocatalyst due to its excellent activities. By fabricating vanadium doped TiO2 and CuOx co-catalyzed TiO2 nano-size filter, the degradation level of the volatile organic compound (VOC) concentration was tested using 365nm UV LED as light source in a closed chamber. Main purpose for this test is to evaluate the activities of various catalysts for degrading the VOCs which are detrimental to human body and toluene and p-xylene were chosen in the VOC removal test. Target gas materials were injected into the test chamber with dry air as carrier gas which was flowed into the gas washer bottle filled with liquid form of VOC substance. When the VOC gas flows into the chamber, it is circulated by 200 mm fan in order to contact with the set-up filter on the aluminum holder. Target gas concentration in the chamber was monitored using VOC detector (miniRae3000, Raesystems) which was also placed inside the chamber. With the measured concentration, the VOC degradation efficiency and the degradation rate were evaluated and used to compare the catalytic activities.

신뢰성이 우수하며, 소형화가 가능하고, 우수한 열전도도의 은 전극을 이용할 수 있는 LTCC (Low temperature co-fired ceramic) 패키징은 환경 및 열에 약한 플라스틱 패키징을 대체할 것으로 기대받고 있다. 현재 LTCC 패키징의 원료 분말로는 주로 $Al_2O_3$을 사용하는데, 본 연구에서는 $Al_2O_3$보다 열전도도가 2배 우수한 ZnO을 일부 첨가 또는 대체한 조성 변화를 통하여 패키징의 열 특성 변화에 대해 연구하였다. 소량의 ZnO를 첨가하여 열전도도가 최대 25%까지 상승하는 결과가 나타났으며, 이 결과로 LED 수명이 증가할 것으로 예상된다. ANSYS 시뮬레이션 결과 열 유속의 값이 ZnO가 첨가된 경우 최대 56% 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 실제 LED 패키징을 제작하여 측정한 결과도 ZnO를 첨가한 LTCC 패키징은 $Al_2O_3$로만 이루어진 패키징보다 열저항이 최대 14.9% 감소하였다.

Recently Digital TV industry has drastically been moving the illuminating system, which causes an obvious product change from PDP and LCD to LED model to provide high-definition image. Due to strong competition in the digital industry, TV manufacturers make a great efforts to reduce production cost by using low-priced materials such as steels instead of aluminum and plastic etc. In this paper we have developed a new low-priced electrogalvanized steel sheet, which has a black resin composite layer, to substitute conventional high-priced PCM steel and plastic mold for rear cover panel in the digital TV. The black resin composite was prepared by mechanical dispersion of the mixture solution that consists of high solid polyester resin, melamine hardener, black pigment, micronized silica paste, polyacrylate texturing particle and miscellaneous additives. The composite solution was coated on the steel sheet using roll coater followed by induction furnace curing and cooling. Although the coated layer has a half thickness compared to the conventional PCM steels having $23{\mu}m$ thickness, it exhibits excellent quality for the usage of rear cover panel. The new steel sheet was applied to test products to get quality certification from worldwide electronic appliance customers. Detailed discussion provides in this paper including preparation of composite solution, roll coating technology, induction curing technology and quality evaluation from customers.
