The most prevalent cause of solar cell efficiency loss is reduced recombination at the metal electrode and silicon junction. To boost efficiency, a a SiO_X/poly-Si passivating interface is being developed. Poly-Si for passivating contact is formed by various deposition methods (sputtering, PECVD, LPCVD, HWCVD) where the ploy-Si characterization depends on the deposition method. The sputtering process forms a dense Si film at a low deposition rate of 2.6 nm/min and develops a low passivation characteristic of 690 mV. The PECVD process offers a deposition rate of 28 nm/min with satisfactory passivation characteristics. The LPCVD process is the slowest with a deposition rate of 1.4 nm/min, and can prevent blistering if deposited at high temperatures. The HWCVD process has the fastest deposition rate at 150 nm/min with excellent passivation characteristics. However, the uniformity of the deposited film decreases as the area increases. Also, the best passivation characteristics are obtained at high doping. Thus, it is necessary to optimize the doping process depending on the deposition method.

To reduce the chattering errors of reed switch sensors used for automatic remote measurement of water supply system, a reed switch sensor was analyzed and improved. The operation of reed switch sensors can be described as a mechanical contact by approximation of permanent magnet piece to generate an electrical pulse. The reed switch sensors are used in measurement application by detecting the rotational or translational displacement. To apply for flow measurement devices, the reed switch sensors should keep high reliability. They are applied for the electronic digital type of water flow meters. The reed switch sensor is just installed simply on the mechanical type flow meter. A small magnet is attached on a pointer of the water meter counter rotor. Inside the reed sensor, two steel leaf springs make mechanical contact and apart as rotation of flow meter counter. The counting electrical contact pulses can be converted as the water flow amount. The MCU sends the digital flow rate data to the server using the wireless communication network. But it occurs data difference or errors by chattering noise. The reed switch sensor contains chattering error by it self at the force equivalent position. The vibrations such as passing car near to the switch sensor installed location. In order to reduce chattering error, most system uses just software methods for example using filter and also statistical calibration methods. The chattering errors were reduced by changing leaf spring structure using mechanical hysteresis characteristics.

본 연구는 산화물반도체의 저항을 이용한 메모리소자를 만들기 위해서 $V_2O_5$ 를 산소가스를 이용하여 증착하고 열처리를 하였다. 산소의 유량이 많을수록 산소공공의 형성을 위하여 높은 열처리온도가 필요하였으며, 산소공공은 쇼키접합을 형성하면서 전기적인 특성이 저항성 메모리소자에 적합한 구조로 만들어지고 있었다. $V_2O_5$ 박막은 열에 의한 이온화 반응에 의하여 산소공공이 형성되었으며, 전압 혹은 전류제어 가능한 저항성 메모리 소자를 위하여 쇼키접합이 +전압과 -전압에서 균형있게 이루어지는 것이 요구되며, 쇼키접합은 150도 혹은 200도에서 열처리가 이루어진 경우 쇼키접합이 잘 형성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. $V_2O_5$ 음이온인 산소공공은 역방향전압 혹은 순방향 전압인지에 따라서 저항이 변하면서 쓰기/지우기 상태로 전기적인 동작이 이루어졌으며 저항성메모리로서 구동을 하는 것을 확인하였다.

Recently, amorphous oxides such as InGaZnO (IGZO) and InZnO (IZO) as a channel layer of an oxide TFT have been attracted by advantages such as high mobility, good uniformity, and high transparency. In order to apply such an amorphous oxide TFTs to a display, the stability in various environments must be ensured. In the InGaZnO which has been studied in the past, Ga elements act as a suppressor of oxygen vacancy and result in a decreased mobility at the same time. Previous studies have been showed that the InZnO, which does not contain Ga, can achieve high mobility, but has relatively poor stability under various instability environments. In this study, the TFTs using $IZO/Al_2O_3$ double layer structure were studied. The introduction of an $Al_2O_3$ interlayer between source/drain and channel causes superior electrical characteristics and electrical stability as well as reduced contact resistance with optimally perfect ohmic contact. For the IZO and $Al_2O_3$ bilayer structures, the IZO 30nm IZO channels were prepared at $Ar:O_2=30:1$ by sputtering and the $Al_2O_3$ interlayer were depostied with various thickness by ALD at $150^{\circ}C$. The optimal sample exhibits considerably good TFT performance with $V_{th}$ of -3.3V and field effect mobility of $19.25cm^2/Vs$, and reduced $V_{th}$ shift under positive bias stress stability, compared to conventional IZO TFT. The enhanced TFT performances are closely related to the nice ohmic contact properties coming from the defect passivation of the IZO surface inducing charge traps, and we will provide the detail mechanism and model via electrical analysis and transmission line method.

The capacitive current breaking capability as well as the short circuit current breaking capability is a very important factor in the performance of a circuit breaker. The dielectric recovery capability between poles should be considered in the desist of a circuit breaker because approximately two times of the maximum power system voltage might be applied between poles after the capacitive current be interrupted. The electric field and flow field analyses were utilized in the calculation of dielectric recovery characteristics between poles of 800kV model interrupter. The results show that the separation between moving main contact and moving arcing contact will affect to decrease significantly the electric field strength of a moving arcing contact and an insulation cover, to increase slightly the electric field strength of a fixed arcing contact and to decrease consequently the dielectric recovery capability between poles of the interrupter.

Metal matrix composite (MMC) materials having low electrical contact resistance based on 316L stainless steel (STS) matrix alloy with $ZrB_2$ particles were fabricated for PEMFC (Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell) separator by powder metallurgy (PM). The effects of the boride particle addition into the matrix alloy on microstructure, surface morphology, and interfacial contact resistance (ICR) between the samples and gas diffusion layer (GDL) were investigated. Both conventional and PM 316L STS samples showed high ICR due to the existence of non-conductive passive film on the alloy surface. The addition of the boride particles, however, remarkably reduced ICR of the samples. SEM observation revealed that the boride particles were protruded out of the matrix surface and particle density existing on the surface increased with increasing the boride content, causing increase of the total contact area between the conductive particles and GDL. ICR of the samples also decreased with increasing the boride content resulted from the increased contact area.

Concerns about high radiation exposure to the hands of radiation workers who may contact with radioactive contamination on surfaces in a nuclear power plant (NPP) had been raised, and the Korean regulatory body required the extremity dose estimation during contact tasks with radioactive materials. Korean NPPs conducted field tests to identify the incident radiation to the hands of radiation workers who may contact with radioactive contamination during maintenance periods. The results showed that the radiation fields for contact tasks are dominated by high energy photons. It was also found that the radiation doses to the hands of radiation workers in Korean NPPs were much less than the annual dose limits for extremities. This approach can be applicable to measure and estimate the extremity dose to the hands of medical workers who handle the radioactive materials in a hospital.

To improve electrical properties and uniformity of high-low doped n-type GaAs, new ohmic contacts with a low-resistance and the superior uniformity was developed using a concept of hybrid ohmic contact. The hybrid ohmic contact displayed good surface and interface morphology and had minimum contact resistivity of 3${\times}$10-6 $\Omega$$\textrm{cm}^2$ in a wide annealing temperature ranged from 340$^{\circ}C$ to 420$^{\circ}C$, which was much wider than that of conventional ohmic contacts. The microstructural analysis showed that the Pd/Ge ohmic contact at low annealing temperature (∼300$^{\circ}C$) and also annealing temperature (∼400$^{\circ}C$), resulting ij hybrid ohmic contacts.
