In this paper, plasma ion implant is performed with $PH_3$ gas diluted by helium gas on P-type Si wafer (100). Spike Rapid Thermal Processing(RTP) annealing performed for 30~60 sec from $800\;^{\circ}C$ to $1000\;^{\circ}C$ in $N_2+O_2$ ambient. Crystalline defect is analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscope(TEM) and Double crystal X-ray Diffraction(DXRD). Contact resistivity($\rho c$), contact resistance(Rc) and sheet resistance(Rs) are analyzed by measuring Transfer Length Method(TLM) using 4155C analysis. As annealing temperature increase, Rs decrease and ${\rho}c$ and Rc increase at temperature higher than $850\;^{\circ}C$. We achieve low Rs, ${\rho}c$ and Rc with Plasma ion implant and spike RTP.

The metallization is the key to determining cell costs, call performance, and cell and system reliabiltiy. The Burled Contact Solar Cell (BCSC) was specifical1y desinged to be compatible tilth low cost, mass production techniques and avoid the conventional metallization problem. By using electroless plating trchniqeu, we performed this metallization inexpensively and reliabley, This paper presents the details of the optimization procedure of metallization schemes on laser grooved cell surface Commercially available Ni ,Cu, and Ag plating solutions were applied for the cell metallization. The application of those solutions on the buried contact front metalization has resulted in an cell efficiency of 18.5% The cell parameters are an open circuit voltage of 651 mV, short circuit current density of 38.6 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and fill factor of 73.5%.

A simplified resistor network model for electrical and mass transport in anode-supported planar solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) was constructed in order to investigate the effect of interconnect rib geometry on the cell performance. For accurate potential calculation, activation and concentration over-potentials at the electrode/electrolyte interfaces were fully considered in this calculation. When contact resistance was not considered, the optimum interconnect rib length were calculated to be $0.1{\sim}0.2$ mm for 2 mm half unit cell for given operation conditions and properties. However, with realistic contact resistance, the interconnect rib length should be increased to provide larger contact area and thus to obtain better performance.

In this paper, a system for the precise detection of arcs is proposed for a rigid catenary using a spectrometer. For this purpose, a miniature rigid catenary contact-loss simulator was used. Experiments were performed by varying the amplitude of the excitation frequency with which a real arc can occur using a simulator in the range of 5 to 15 mm. The range of the radiated wavelength of the copper, which is a material in the rigid catenary, and the irradiance were measured using a spectrometer according to the generated contact loss. In addition, the amount was monitored over time and its characteristics were analyzed. The voltage and current of the load were analyzed when the arc occurred due to contact loss. The analytical results will be applied to detect rigid catenary arcs and used as a monitoring system for real vehicles developed in the future. This will prevent abrasion and disconnection in rigid catenary systems.

In this paper, A technique for detecting contact loss at the input power of a railway vehicle has been studied when the contact loss occurs in the feed system. The impedance of the actual railway line was applied to the modeling of the feed system, and modeling was performed based on the performance of the electric railway vehicle. The input voltage and current of the railway vehicle through modeling were analyzed by applying TEO and STFT signal processing technique.

Tri-crystalline silicon wafers have three different orientations and three-grain boundaries. In this paper, tri-crystalline silicon (tri-Si) wafers have been used for the fabrication of buried contact solar cells. The optical and micro-structural properties of these cells after texturing in KOH solution have been investigated and compared with those of cast mult- crystalline silicon (multi-Si) wafers. We employed a cost effective fabrication process and achieved buried contact solar cell (BCSC) energy conversion efficiencies up to $15\%$ whereas the cast multi-Si wafer has efficiency around $14\%$.

Using current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements, the electrical properties of Au and Cu Schottky contacts to n-Ge were comparatively investigated. Lower values of barrier height, ideality factor and series resistance were obtained for the Au contact as compared to the Cu contact. The values of capacitance showed strong dependence on the bias voltage and the frequency. The presence of an inversion layer at the interface might reduce the intercept voltage at the voltage axis, lowering the barrier height for C-V measurements, especially at lower frequencies. In addition, a higher interface state density was observed for the Au contact. The generation of sputter deposition-induced defects might occur more severely for the Au contact; these defects affected both the I-V and C-V characteristics.

A non-contact battery charger which transfers energy using magnetic field without any electrical contacts is designed using half-bridge series resonant converter. This converter utilizes series resonance to reduce the undesirable effect of large leakage inductance of the non-contact transformer and ZVS operation can reduce switching losses. In this paper. analysis and design procedure of half-bridge series resonant converter with non-contact transformer is presented. Input voltage is 85VAC ${\sim}$ 270VAC, output voltage and current is 4.1V and 800mA, respectively. Furthermore, a method for calculating the secondary current of the transformer to control battery charging current in constant current charging mode which is required for litium-ion battery is proposed and the performance is verified from experiments.

Facilities of electric railway should be maintained only at night and it is necessary to maintain by human power because facilities are installed at a high place. This paper presents the development and application of a real-time data acquisition system for the characteristics measurement of overhead contact wires in electric railway. The system is designed to perform in the telemetry environments that developed to store data by wireless in a live wire state of 25 kV power source. The field test results show that the proposed technique and the developed system can be practically applied to measure characteristics of temperature, displacement, and strain on overhead contact lines.
