Piezoelectric ceramics were made by a doctor blade methode and piezoelectric fans were fabricated by sandwiched a slim and long metal between two layers of ceramics. A maximum displacement of piezoelectric fan occurs in the resonance frequency of a long metal and the resonance frequency of them is in inverse proportion to the square of a length of metal. The piezoelectric fan made from a wide and thin piezoelectric ceramics($13{\times}0.2{\times}30mm^3$) showed a maximum displacement in all samples, and the maximum displacement was about 20mm in a commercial power (200V, 60Hz of sine wave).

The research and development for the solid oxide fuel cell have been promoted rapidly and extensively in recent years, because of their high efficiency and future potential. Therefore this paper describes the manufacturing method and characteristics of anode electrode for solid oxide fuel cell, by the way, Ni-YSZ materials are used as anode of solid oxide fuel cell widely. In order to reduce production costs, we have fabricated single solid oxide fuel cell by doctor blade and screen printing method. Disk-type planar solid oxide fuel cell with an effective electrode area of about $7cm^2$ were fabricated and run for 500 h to investigate cell performance. The current density at a voltage of 0.7 V was $850mA/cm^2$.

The electrochemical characteristics and specific capacitance were investigated by preparation processes (dip coating method, doctor blade coating method and paste rolling method) of activated carbon electrode for an EDLC(electric double layer capacitor). The EDLC using $LiPF_6$ salts and PC-DEC solvents showed good specific capacitance, 130F/g and small IR-drop at linear time-voltage curve. 0.11V, Cyclic voltammetry analysis using the activated carbon electrode prepared by dip coating method was shown closer to ideal EDLC characterization.

염료감응형 태양전지의 효율을 향상을 시키기 위하여, 이산화티타니아박막을 doctor-blade 방법으로 FTO 기판위에 15-16um 코팅을 한뒤, 다른 온도의 $400^{\circ}C-600^{\circ}C$ 범위에서, 소결을 하였다. 상대전극은 FTO 기판위에 5Ml의 Pt용액을 가지고, $450^{\circ}C$온도에서 제작을 하였다. 실험의 결과 이산화티타니아의 표면거칠기 및 입자사이즈의 소결의 형상에 따라 DSSC의 효율의 상관관계가 영향을 받았다. 표면의 형상은 AFM으로 측정을 하였으며, 표면의 단차가 RMS의 값이 7nm이하 일 때, 효율의 향상을 이루었다. 실험결과 $500^{\circ}C$ 이하일 때, 상대적으로 낮은 open circuit voltage를 이루었으며, 낮은 Fill-factor를 이루었다. $500^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 상대적으로 높은 high circuit voltage와 높은 fill factor를 나타내었다. 실험결과 $500^{\circ}C$에서 소결된 전극을 가진 DSSC가 단락의 전압과 개방전류가 상호보완된 적정값을 가져 가장 개선된 FF와 Eff를 나타내었다. 이와 같은 특성은 이산화티타니아의 준위 모식도에서 설명이 될수 있고, 이산화티타니아의 최적의 necking 및 pore, 입자크기등이 제어될수 있음을 의미한다.

A non-vacuum process for fabrication of $CuInSe_2$ (CIS) absorber layer from the corresponding Cu, In solution precursors was described. Cu, In solution precursors was prepared by a room temperature colloidal route by reacting the starting materials $Cu(NO_3)_2$, $InCl_3$ and methanol. The Cu, In solution precursors were mixed with ethylcellulose as organic binder material for the rheology of the mixture to be adjusted for the doctor blade method. After depositing the mixture of Cu, In solution with binder on Mo/glass substrate, the samples were preheated on the hot plate in air to evaporate remaining solvents and to burn the organic binder material. Subsequently, the resultant CI/Mo/glass sample was selenized in Se evaporation in order to get a solar cell applicable dense CIS absorber layer. The CIS absorber layer selenized at $530^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature for 30 min with various Se gas evaporation temperature was characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS.

In this paper, a novel non-vacuum technique is described for the fabrication of a $CuInSe_2$ (CIS) absorber layer for thin film solar cells using a low-cost precursor solution. A solution containing Cu- and Inrelated chemicals was coated onto a Mo/glass substrate using the Doctor blade method and the precursor layer was then selenized in an evaporation chamber. The precursor layer was found to be composed of CuCl crystals and amorphous In compound, which were completely converted to chalcopyrite CIS phase by the selenization process. Morphological, crystallographic and compositional analyses were performed at each step of the fabrication process by SEM, XRD and EDS, respectively.

The hybrid structured photo-electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells was fabricated based on the composites of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles and nanowires. Three samples with different hybrid structures were prepared with 17 vol%, 43 vol%, and 100 vol% nanowires. The energy conversion efficiency was enhanced from 5.54% for pure nanoparticle cells to 6.01% for the hybrid structure with 17 vol% nanowires. For the hybrid structured layers with high nanowires concentration (43 vol% and 100 vol%), the efficiency decreased with the nanowire concentration, because of the decrease of specific surface area, and of thus decreased current density. The random orientations of $TiO_2$ nanowires can be preserved by the doctor blade process, resulted in the enhanced efficiency. The hybrid structured $TiO_2$ layer can possess the advantages of the high surface area of nanoparticles and the rapid electron transport rate and the light scattering effect of nanowires.
