A curing process in post-printing section of R2R process is required for an electrical property of the printed pattern when devices such as RFID, Solar cell are printed. PEN as well as heat-stabilized PET which is used as a plastic substrate would be deformed at high temperature due to change of its elastic modulus. And crack in the printed pattern, which is on the plastic substrate is occurred due to the deformation of the substrate. The occurrence of crack causes electrical resistance to increase and the quality of the device to deteriorate. In case of RFID antenna, the range of reading distance is shortened as the electrical resistance of the antenna is increased. Therefore, the deformation of the plastic substrate, which causes the occurrence of crack, should be minimized by setting up low operating tension in R2R process. In low tension, slippage between a moving substrate and a roller would be generated when the operating speed is increased. And scratch would be occurred when slippage is generated due to an air entrainment, which is related to the thickness of the air film. The thickness of the air film is increased when operating speed is increased as shown by simulation based on mathematical model. The occurrence of scratch in conductive pattern printed by roll to roll process is a critical damage because it causes degradation or failure of electrical property of it.

Surface recombination loss should be reduced for high efficiency of solar cells. To reduce this loss, the BSF (back surface field) is used. The BSF on the back of the p-type wafer forms a p+layer, which prevents the activity of electrons of the p-area for the rear recombination. As a result, the leakage current is reduced and the rear-contact has a good Ohmic contact. Therefore, the open-circuit-voltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF) of solar cells are increased. This paper investigates the formation of the rear contact process by comparing aluminum-paste (Al-paste) with pure aluminum-metal(99.9%). Under the vacuum evaporation process, pure aluminum-metal(99.9%) provides high conductivity and low contact resistance of $4.2\;m{\Omega}cm$, but It is difficult to apply the standard industrial process to it because high vacuum is needed, and it's more expensive than the commercial equipment. On the other hand, using the Al-paste process by screen printing is simple for the formation of metal contact, and it is possible to produce the standard industrial process. However, Al-paste used in screen printing is lower than the conductivity of pure aluminum-metal(99.9) because of its mass glass frit. In this study, contact resistances were measured by a 4-point probe. The contact resistance of pure aluminum-metal was $4.2\;m{\Omega}cm$ and that of Al-paste was $35.69\;m{\Omega}cm$. Then the rear contact was analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Poly(trimethylene terephthalate)(이하 PTT)는 1941년 Caligo Printing Ink사의 Whinfield와 Dickson에 의해 중합 방법이 보고[1]된 이후 상업화를 위한 많은 학문적 연구가 이어져왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 아직 PET에 비하여 기초 연구가 미비하며 상업적으로 사용하기에는 많은 불안정한 요소들을 가지고 있다. 앞선 연구자들이 밝힌바와 같이 PTT의 결정구조는 2개의 단량체가 1개의 unit cell을 이루면서 결정격자 내에서 O-C $H_2$-C $H_2$-C $H_2$-O가 trans-gauche-gauche-trans형의 coiled spring처럼 형성되어 좋은 elastic recovery와 뛰어난 신축성, 염색성 등 우수한 물성을 가지며 전반적인 성질은 PET와 Nylon의 중간성질을 뛰고 있지만 [2,3] 유리전이온도 (Tg : dir 4$0^{\circ}C$)와 냉결정화오도 ( $T_{ c cold}$ : dir 55$^{\circ}C$)사이의 차이가 15$^{\circ}C$ 정도이므로 섬유상에 많은 경시변화가 일으켜 구조적 불안정성을 가지게 한다 [4].

The depletion of fossil fuels and the increase in environmental awareness have led to greater interest in renewable energy. In particular, solar cells have attracted attention because they can convert an infinite amount of solar energy into electricity. Dye-sensitize solar cells (DSSCs) are low cost third generation solar cells that can be manufactured using environmentally friendly materials. However, DSSC photoelectrodes are generally produced by screen printing, which requires high temperature heat treatment, and low temperature processes that can be used to produce flexible DSSCs are limited. To overcome these temperature limitations, this study fabricated photoelectrodes using room-temperature aerosol deposition. The resulting DSSCs had an energy conversion efficiency of 4.07 %. This shows that it is possible to produce DSSCs and flexible devices using room-temperature processes.

We reported two new techniques of barrier rib formation that are applicable to a variety of structures for high-efficiency PDPs suitable for mass-production [1]. These two methods are mold replication and direct glass sculpting. Especial progress has since been made in improving these methods to be more suitable for high-efficiency PDPs with the DelTA cell structure. This paper reports photolithographic fabrication methods for the masters used in mold replication. The masters for more complex barrier rib forms are easier to make with these methods. The paper also reports a process that combines the direct glass sculpting method with an ink-jet printing method of electrode formation.

This paper presents the design and fabrication model of a touchpad based on a contact-resistance-type force sensor. The touchpad works as a touch input device, which can sense contact location and contact force simultaneously. The touchpad is 40 mm wide and 40 mm long. The touchpad is fabricated by using a simple screen printing technique. The contact location is evaluated by the calibration setup, which has a load cell and three-axis stages. The location error is approximately 4 mm with respect to x-axis and y-axis directions. The force response of the fabricated touchpad is obtained at three points by loading and unloading of the probe. The touchpad can detect loads from 0 N to 2 N. The touchpad shows a hysteresis error rate of about 11% and uniformity error rate of about 3%.

Using 3D printing technology, we created a biomimetic water strider robot that can monitor environments. We found ways to increase the bearing capacity of the fluid-driven water strider robot by conducting experiments then comparing with more stable robots. The controller of the robot is based on Arduino, and can be controlled wirelessly with a Bluetooth module. The speed of the robot is 7.37 cm/s, and the bearing capacity is 29 g. A lithium polymer battery that can be charged with a solar cell was used as a power source, and both the charging and driving times were also explored.

There are typically applied on both rear and front sides of electrical contacts to the solar cell. The front contact formation is particularly sensitive to many parameters. Accordingly patterning of front grid line is an important factor of solar cells. This paper describe the electrical conversion efficiency, inclusive of shading loss that gives various spacing between front metal grid lines. In experiments with variation of spacing. It was verified that the wide spacing of grid fingers could increase the series resistance, also the narrow spacing of grid fingers also implies a grid with a higher density of grid fingers. The sunlight of incidence was more of reflection by grid fingers. In result, the short circuit current, which contribute to conversion efficiency was decreased, because maximum power input was reduced and increase the series resistance.

This study presents a new approach to pressure control of a impression cylinder for roll coater which is a kind of face pressure control between blanket roll and impression roll. Roll-to-Roll method for printing is a very useful tool for mass production such as RFID elements, smart sensors and solar cell devices. In this study, a decupling control strategy of the roll coater which is a combination of a cylinder system, a dry system and two pressure regulators with two pneumatic cylinders was discussed. Also, the characteristics of component such as a pressure regulator having a pressure reducing function and the movement of a blanket roll and a impression cylinder were analyzed using the Matlab software. From this results, the techniques of a shock and a vibration reduction were suggested.

태양전지의 고효율화를 위해, 생성된 전자와 전공을 전극에서 효과적으로 수집하는 방법에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 태양전지 전면전극은 빛의 조사에 의해 생성된 전자를 수집하는 매체로써 finger width가 넓어질수록, 전자를 수집하기 쉬워진다. 하지만 finger width가 넓어짐에 따라, shadowing loss 증가에 의해 단락전류 밀도가 감소하여 태양전지 효율이 저하 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 스크린 프린팅에 의해 형성된 전면전극의 finger width를 기존의 $80{\mu}m$에서 $50{\mu}m$로 변경하고, double printing에 의해 finger height를 높이는 방법으로 태양전지의 효율을 향상 시키고자 하였다. 그 결과, 전극패턴 50에서는 전극패턴 80보다 0.47 단락전류밀도가 증가하였고, 효율(efficiency)은 0.16%가 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
