Solar reforming of methane with CO2 was successfully tested with a direct irradiated absorber on a parabolic dish capable of 5kWth solar power. And the new type of double-layer absorber - the front layer, porous metal foam which absorbs the radiation and transfers the heat from material to gas, and the back layer, catalytically-activated metal foam - was prepared, and its activity was tested by using electric furnace. Ni was applied as the active metal on the gamma-Al2O3 coated Ni metal foam for the preparation of the catalytically-activated metal foam layer. Compared to conventional direct irradiation of the catalytically activated metal foam absorber, this new type of double layer absorber is found to exhibit a superior reaction and thermal storage performance at the fluctuating incident solar radiation. In addition, unlike direct irradiation of the foam absorber, double layer absorber has better thermal resistance, which prevents the emergence of cracks caused by mechanical or thermal shock. The total solar power absorbed reached up to 3.25kW and the maximum CH4 conversion was almost 59%.

In this paper, TE(transverse electric) scattering problems by a resistive strip grating between a grounded double dielectric layer are analyzed by applying the FGMM(fourier galerkin moment method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic fileld. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients, the scattered electromagnetic fields are expanded in a series of Floquet mode functions, and the resistive boundary condition is applied to analysis of the resistive strip. Overall, as the resistivity decreased, the magnitude of the current density induced in the resistive strip increased, and the reflected power also increased. In case of uniform resistivity, the reflected power decreased as the relative permittivity of the dielectric layers increased or the thickness of the dielectric layer increased. The numerical results for the presented structure in this paper are shown in good agreement compared to those of the existing papers.

A numerical investigation is made of transient evolutionary prcocess of electroosmotic flow in a two-dimensional microchannel connected to a reservoir. The channel height is very small so that two electric double layers forming on the charged surfaces are overlapped. Transient transports of ions in the electrolyte solution are computed by integrating the Nernst-Planck equation together with the Poisson equation for electric potential. The numerical results illustrate that there are two distinct transient phases. The physical mechanisms and relevant time scales for the transient evolution are described.

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor(IGBTs) are widely used in power device industry. However, to improve the breakdown voltage, IGBTs are suffered from increasing on-state voltage drop due to structural design. In this paper, the new structure is proposed to solve this problem. The proposed structure has double p-floating layer inserted in n-drift layer. The p-floating layers improve the breakdown voltage compared to conventional IGBT without change of other electrical characteristics such as on-state voltage drop and threshold voltage. this is because the p-floating layers expand electric field distribution at blocking state. A electrical characteristic of proposed structure is analyzed by using simulators such as TSUPREM and MEDICI. As a result, on-state voltage drop and threshold voltage are same to a conventional TIGBT, but breakdown voltage is improved to 16%.

Electric double layer capacitors (EDLC: electric double layer capacitors) have drew attention as an energy storage device for the next generation because of their outstanding power capability and durability. But their usage is somewhat limited due to low energy density over secondary batteries. One of methods to improve the energy of EDLC is expanding the voltage window of cell operation by increasing the charge cut-off voltage. In this study, $SBP-BF_4$ (spirobipyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate), $TEA-BF_4$ (tetraethylammonium tetraflouroborate) and $EMI-BF_4$ (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate) in AN (acetonitrile) were selected to evaluate the possibility of application at high voltage environment. The LSV (linear sweep voltammetry) measurements showed that the 1.5M SBP-BF4/AN electrolyte was stable over a wide potential window and showed the best electrochemical performance compared to other combinations of electrolytes at high voltage environments (over 3.0 V). Furthermore, TMSP (tris(trimethylsilyl) phosphite) was applied to 1.5M SBP-BF4/AN in order to maintain stable performance at high voltage for the long period of time. The electrolyte with TMSP additive showed the capacity retention of 93% after 10,000 cycles at 3.3 V.

Intermetallic dielectric layer was formed by using SiO$_2$/SOG/SiO$_2$ for aluminum based dual-metal interconnection process and its electric characteristics were evaluated. The dielectric layer was in the cost and facility point of view more useful than the insulator that was formed by etch-back process. The planarity by using SOG process was about 40% higher than that of the insulator by the CVD process. When SiO$_2$ films were deposited by the PECVD process the Al hillock formation during the next process was restrained bucause the intermetalic insulator was made at low temperature. The leakage current was 1${\times}10^{7}~1{\times}10^{-8}A/cm^{2}$ at the electric field of 10$^{5}$V/cm and breakdown filed was 4.5${\times}10^{6}~7{\times}10^{6}A/cm$. So we had confirmed that siloxane SOG was very useful for intermetallic layer material.

In the perspective of saving energy in buildings, the high performance of insulation and air tightness for improving the heating and the cooling efficiency, has brought economically positive effects. However, these building energy saving technologies cause the lack of ventilation, which is the direct cause of increasing the indoor contaminants, and is also very harmful to the residents, because they spend over 90% of their time indoors. Therefore, the ventilation is important to keep the indoor environment clean and it can also save the energy consumption. In this study, a HEPA type nano ceramic filter is designed as a passive ventilation system to collect airborne particles and to supply fresh outdoor air. The double layer filter, which has $30{\mu}m$ in diameter at the conditions of 10wt% of concentration and 3kV/cm of the electric intensity, is produced by electrospinning. The filtration coating technology is confirmed in the solution with $SiO_2$ nano particles using polymer nano fibers. Also double layer filters are coated with $SiO_2$ nano particles and finally the porous construction materials are made by sintering in the electric furnace at $200{\sim}1400^{\circ}C$. The efficiency is measured 96.67% at the particle size of $0.31{\mu}m$, which is slightly lower than HEPA filter. However the efficiency is turned out to be sufficient.

Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) is the most convenient technology to deposit natural or oxide powders of nonconductive materials in alcoholic suspension solution with adding electrolyte of iodine to form ceramic thick film on metal substrate under applied electric field with double electric layer between electrode and metal substrate. In this research work, the important parameters and technical ways were studied to form EPD thick films of typical oxide ceramics of Al2O3, YBCO and tourmaline powders.
