  • High-efficiency silicon solar cells have potential applications on mobile electronics and electrical vehicles. The fabrication processes of the high efficiency cells necessitate com placated fabrication precesses and expensive materials. Ti/Pd/Ag metal contact has been used only for limited area In spite of good stability and low contact resistance because of Its expensive material cost and precesses. Screen printed contact formed by Ag paste causes a low fill factor and a high shading loss of commercial solar cells because of high contact resistance and a low aspect ratio. Low cost Ni/Cu metal contact has been formed by using a low cost electroless and electroplating. Nickel silicide formation at the interface enhances stability and reduces the contact resistance resulting In an energy conversion efficiency of $20.2\%\;on\;0.50{\Omega}cm$ FZ wafer. Tapered contact structure has been applied to large area solar cells with $6.7\times6.7cm^2$ in order to reduce power losses by the front contact The tapered front metal contact Is easily formed by the electroplating technique producing $45cm^2$ solar cells with an efficiency of $21.4\%$ on $21.4\%\;on\;2{\Omega}cm$ FZ wafer.

  • Extracellular nuclease(s) in buffalo rumen fluid were purified from strained rumen fluid by a procedure involving Seitz filtration, acetone fractionation and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The enzyme resolved into two peaks exhibiting both DNase and RNase activities. The molecular weight of enzyme corresponding to peaks I and II were approximately 30,000 and 12,000 respectively. The properties of enzymes from the two peaks, however, were same. Optimum temperature for both DNase and RNase activities was at $50^{\circ}C$. Whereas DNase activity was stable upto $60^{\circ}C$, RNase activity was stable only up to $50^{\circ}C$. DNase activity recorded two pH optima, one at pH 5.5 and the other at pH 7.0. RNase activity recorded a broad pH optimum between pH 6.0-8.0. pH stability of the enzyme coincided with pH optima for both the activities. DNase activity was stimulated by $Mg^{2+}$ and $Mn^{2+}$ and inhibited by $Fe^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$ and $Ag^+$. RNase activity was also stimulated by $Mg^{2+}$ and $Mn^{2+}$ and inhibited by $Cu^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$ and $Ag^+$. Reducing agents stimulated both the activities.

  • The Daejang mine is one of the representatives of Cu-Pb-Zn-(Ag) vein deposit related genetically to late Cretaceous granitoid in Korea. Sericite from an alteration halo of the mine yielded a K-Ar date of $95{\pm}3.5Ma$. Based on macrostructures of vein filling, three major mineralization stages (I, II and III) are distinguished by tectonic breaks. Major ore constituents are arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, boulangerite, with small amounts of Ag-bearing tetrahedrite, pyrargyrite, native bismuth, marcasite, siderite, ankerite, gudmundite and calcite. Characteristic feature of each mineralization stage and compositional variation of sphalerite and arsenopyrite are discussed in relation to the genetic environments. The FeS contents of sphalerites are 20.5~14.9 mole % in stage I, 17.9~11.9 mole % in stage IIA, 17.0~9.2 mole % in stage IIB, and 6.9~4.7 mole % in stage III. Their results are indicative of decreasing FeS contents during mineralization process in sphalerite coexisting with sulfur-rich sulfide assemblages, such as monoclinic pyrrhotite and pyrite, and is agreement with the conclusions shown by Scott and Kissin(1973). The composition of arsenopyrite decrease also in As content from stage I to stage III, and the compositional variation correlate with position of the associated minerals in the paragenesis. Temperature and pressure of the mineralization are determined as $250{\sim}430^{\circ}C$ and 4.0~0.3kb respectively, based on the chemistry of the minerals.

  • Gas and chemical compositions of fluid inclusions in quartz some of Au-Ag, Pb-Zn-Cu and W-Mo mineral deposits in South Kores were analyzed to interpret the sources of ore fluid and the depositional condition of ore minerals in base-metal ore deposits. Fluid inclusions in quartz from the gold and silver mines are characterized by $CO_2$ rich fluids which have a wide range in $CH_4 \;and\; CO_2$ contents ($CH_4/CO_2$=0.001-0.225). The $CO_2$ rich but $CH_4$-poor nature of the fluid reflects the high fo2 condition during the mineral precipitation. The C2H6 is detected in hydrothermal quartz vines in metasedimentary rocks from the Jeonjoo-il, Youngbokari and Taechang mines. The $CH_4 /CO_2$ rations in W-Mo bearing quartz veins range from 0.005 to 0.214, which is similar with those in Au-Ag mines. However, skarn formation stage. Fluid inclusions, A relatively good correlation between Na and Cl contentrations reflects varible salinity in the fluid inclusion, it is suggested that the chemistry of promary magmatic hydrothermal fluids has changed during post-magmatic alteration and/or wall rock alteration processes. The content of gas compositions also depends on the kinds of country rocks, supporting above conclusion.

  • We jointed Bi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O multifilament tapes and evaluated their electrical properties. In order to improve connectivity of multifilarnents, single-filament tape was inserted between two multifilament tapes or multifilament was stepped by mechanical remove. The critical current ratio (CCR) and n-value of the jointed tapes were evaluated as a function of uniaxial pressure. It was observed that CCR and n-value were 24.8-29.0% and 2.5-2.8 for lap-jointed tape. On the other hand, the corresponding values were improved to 51.8-61.9% and 2.9-5.1 for three stepped jointed tape, and 63.4-67.9% and 3.4-4.2 for double MSM lap-jointed tape, respectively. These improvements are to be due to better interconnection between filaments of two tapes.

  • Contact type Ic measurement system is needed to measure Ic continuously for long Bi-2223 tapes. Voltage and current terminals were designed several shapes for 4-probe method Ic measurement. Voltage terminals were made with brass and current terminals were made with Cu. We used 2 kinds of Bi-2223 tapes with different strength. When we measured Ic of Bi-2223 tape with Ag-Mg sheath, The proper weight was 0.3 kg and sharp pin type was better. according to voltage terminal shape and load. In case of Bi-2223 tape with Ag-Mn sheath, the proper terminal weight was 4 kg and sharp pin type was bad. It was possible to make continuous contact type Ic measurement system because We could get proper data - terminal shapes and loads - through these experiments.

  • The microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of dolomite type borates, $CaZr(BO_3)_2$ ceramics prepared by conventional mixed oxide method were explored. The sintering temperature of $CaZr(BO_3)_2$ ceramics could be reduced from $1150^{\circ}C\;to\;925^{\circ}C$ with little amount of sintering additives. Microwave dielectric properties of 3 wt% $Bi_2O_3-CuO$ added $CaZr(BO_3)_2$ ceramics sintered at $925^{\circ}C$ were $K{\approx}10.4,\;Q{\times}f{\approx}80,000GHz\;and\;TCF{\approx}+2ppm/^{\circ}C$. Thus obtained LTCC tape was co-fired with Ag paste for compatibility test and revealed no sign of Ag reaction with the ceramics. Therefore, $CaZr(BO_3)_2$ ceramics is considered as a possible candidate material for low temperature co-fired multilayer devices.

  • $BiNbO_4$ ceramics doped with 0.07wt% $V_2O_5$ and 0.03wt% CuO (BNC3V7) were sucessfully sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ through the firing process with Ag electrode. The BNC3V7 shows typically Dielectric constant of 44.3, Thermal Coefficient of resonance Frequency(TCF) of 2 ppm/$^{\circ} and $Qxf_o$ value of 22,000 GHz. The laminated chip Low Pass Filter (LPF) is very sensitive to chip processing parameters, was confirmed by the computer simulation as a function of Q(Quality factors), filter size, capacitor layer thickness, inductor pattern widths. The multilayer type LPF was fabricated by screen-printing with Ag electrode after tape casting and then compared with the simulated characteristics. The results show that characterization of band pass width was similar to that of designed ones.
