The fundamental gap between the lowest two Dirich-let eigenvalues for a Schr dinger operator HR={{{{ { { d}^{2 } } over { { dx}^{2 } } }}}}+V(x) on L({{{{ LEFT | -R,R RIGHT | }}}}) is compared with the gap for a same operator Hs with a different domain {{{{ LEFT [ -S,S RIGHT ] }}}} and the difference is exponentially small when the potential has a large barrier.

Ti/sic(4H) Schottky barrier diodes were fabricated. The donor concentration and the built-in potential obtained by capacitance-voltage(C-V) measurement was about $2.0{\times}10^{15}{\textrm}{cm}^{-3}$ and 0.65 V, respectively. The ideality factor of 1.07 was obtained from the slope of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics at low current density. The breakdown field under the reverse bias voltage was about $1.7{\times}10^3V/{\textrm}{cm}$ and was very high. The barrier height of Ti for SiC(4H) was 0.91 V, which was determined by the analysis of the saturation current-temperature and the C-V characteristics.

To validate the previous conceptual design of cover system, construction of the engineered barrier test facility is completed and the performance tests of the disposal cover system are conducted. The disposal test facility is composed of the multi-purpose working space, the six test cells and the disposal information space for the PR center. The dedicated detection system measures the water content, the temperature, the matric potential of each cover layer and the accumulated water volume of lateral drainage. Short-term experiments on the disposal cover layer using the artificial rainfall system are implemented. The sand drainage layer shows the satisfactory performance as intended in the design stage. The artificial rainfall does not affect the temperature of cover layers. It is investigated that high water infiltration of the artificial rainfall changes the matric potential in each cover layer. This facility is expected to increase the public information about the national radioactive waste disposal program and the effort for the safety of the planned disposal facility.

Basic discharge characteristics of a ferroelectric ball and mica sheet double barrier have been studied for learning the fundamentals of the barrier discharges and for checking the potential to be used as a plasma generator. It is found that plasma generation of the plasma generator was influenced greatly by the dielectric constant of the ferroelectric ball barrier and applied power frequency. As a result, there are optimum conditions of the dielectric constant as a barrier and the applied frequency to generate ozone effectively, which were ${\varepsilon}_r$=600 and f=4 kHz at the present experimental case.

Dielectric Barrier Discharges (DBD) in oxygen and air are well established for the production of large quantities of ozone and are more recently being applied to a wider range of after treatment processes for HAPs(Hazardous Air Pollutants). The potential use as a charger for particle collection are not well known. In this work, we measured charge distribution of nanometer or submicron sized particles passing through the dielectric barrier discharge reactor. The bipolar charge characteristics of particles passing DBD reactor were investigated. Fluorometric method using uranine particles and a fluorometer was employed to examine the bipolar charging characteristics of the charged particles by DBD reactor. Finally, the charge distributions of particles were determined from the electrical mobility classification using DMA.

In this paper a new wire-wire discharge system with a slit dielectric harrier has been proposed, and, its corona discharge and ozone generation characteristics have been investigated experimentally. When the slit mica barrier is installed between corona wires, instead of the grounded plate electrode, a significant increase in the generation of ozone, about 2.2 times higher than that of the conventional ones without the slit harrier, could be obtained. Photographs show that this type of discharge system with a slit barrier was found to produce a corona discharge twice, once from the upper and bottom corona wires, and. again from both sides of surfaces and slits of the slit barrier. As a result, the proposed discharge system has the potential to increase significantly ozone production and it may be useful as an effective means for removing pollutant gases.

Herein, we report polyvinyl butyral composites coatings containing various loadings of 72-h bath sonicated hexagonal boron nitride particles (5 ㎛) to enhance barrier properties of coatings. Barrier properties of coatings were determined in 3.5 wt% NaCl after different time periods of immersion via electrochemical techniques such as open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and potentiodynamic polarization test. Coatings containing sonicated hexagonal boron particles exhibited improved corrosion resistance for longer periods of immersion compared to neat coating. We also discussed effects of hexagonal boron nitride on healing properties of polyvinyl butyral. Coatings containing 1.0 wt% loading of sonicated hexagonal boron nitride showed improved long-term barrier properties than coatings with other compositions. The presence of hexagonal boron nitride also affected the healing properties of polyvinyl butyral coatings besides their barrier properties. Such improved barrier properties of composites coatings were attributed to the high aspect ratio, plate-like shape, and electrically insulated nature of the filler.

Franz Keldysh Oscillation (FKO)은 p-n 접합 구조의 공핍층(depletion zone)에서 전기장(electric field)에 의해 발생되며, Photoreflectance (PR) spectroscopy를 통하여 관측된다. InAs/GaAs 양자점 태양전지(Quantum Dot Solar Cells, QDSCs)에서 PR 신호에 대한 Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)을 통하여 FKO 주파수들을 관측할 수 있고, 각각의 FKO 주파수들은 태양전지 구조에 대응하는 표면 및 내부전기장(internal electric field) 들로 분류할 수 있다. InAs/GaAs 양자점 태양전지에서 AlGaAs potential barrier의 두께에 따른 내부전기장의 변화를 조사하기 위해, GaAs-matrix에 8주기의 InAs 양자점 층이 삽입된 태양전지를 molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) 방법으로 성장하였다. 양자점의 크기는 2.0 monolayer (ML)이며, 각 양자점 층은 1.6 nm에서 6.0 nm의 AlGaAs potential barrier들로 분리되어 있다. 또한 양자점 층의 위치에 따라 내부전기장 변화를 조사하기 위해, p-i-n 구조에서 양자점 층이 공핍층 내에 위치한 경우와 p+-n-n+ 구조에서 양자점 층이 공핍 층으로부터 멀리 떨어진 n-base 영역에 삽입하여 실험결과를 비교분석하였다. PR 실험결과로부터, p-i-n 구조에서 InAs 양자점 태양전지의 내부전기장 변화는 potential barrier 두께에 따라 다소 복잡한 변화를 보였으며, 이는 양자점 층이 공핍층 내에 위치함으로써 격자 불일치(lattice mismatch)로 발생된 응력(strain)의 영향으로 설명할 수 있다. 이러한 결과들을 각각의 태양전지 구조에서 표면 및 내부전기장에 대해 계산된 값들에 근거하여, p+-n-n+ 구조에서 양자점 층이 공핍 층으로부터 멀리 떨어진 영역에 삽입된 경우의 결과와 비교해 보면 내부전기장의 변화는 더욱 분명해진다. 즉, 양자점 층의 potential barrier의 두께를 조절하거나, 양자점 층의 위치를 변화시킴으로써 양자점 태양전지의 내부전기장을 조작할 수 있으며, 이는 PR 실험을 통해 FKO를 관측함으로써 확인할 수 있다.

처음 유기물의 인광 발견 이후 Host-dopant 시스템을 이용하여 Emission layer(EML)을 Co-deopsition 하는 방법으로 주로 인광 유기 발광 다이오드를 제작 하였다. [1] co-deposition을 이용해 만든 유기 발광 다이오드에 많은 장점이 있지만, 반대로 소자를 제작하는데 있어서는 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. [2-4] 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 co-deposition 대신 non-doped Multi Quantum Well(MQW) 구조를 사용하여 doping 하지 않는 방법을 이용하는 논문들이 보고 되고 있다. Hole, electron, exciton이 MQW 구조를 지나면서, dopant well 안에 갇히게 되고, 그 안에서 다른 layer 간에 energy transfer와, hole-electron leakage가 줄어 들어, 더 효율적인 유기 발광 다이오드를 만들 수 있게 된다. [5-7] 이 연구에서는 CBP를 Potential Barrier로 사용하고, Ir(ppy)3 (Green dopant), Ir(btp)2 (Red dopant) 를 각각 Potential Well로 사용하였고, 두께는 CBP 9nm, dopant 1nm로 하였다. 이러한 소자를 만들고 dopant를 3개의 well에 적당히 배치하여, 각 well에서의 실험적인 발광 량 과, EML 안에서의 발광 mechanism 그리고 각 potential barrier를 줄여가며 dexter, forster에 의한 energy transfer에 대하여 알 수 있었다.
