The electronic structures of 3d and 4d core-levels of rare-earth atoms in the insulating rare-earth (Sm, Eu, Gd, and Tb) compounds were studied with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). It is shown that the intrinsic satellite structure due to the hybridization disappears for chemically stable-earth trivalent heavy rare-earth insulating compounds as the hybridization between f electrons of rare-earth atoms and p electrons of anion atoms decreases due to the lanthanide contraction. Eu atoms at the surface of the stable insulating trivalent Eu compounds are found to be divalent. The satellite peak of Eu 3d core-level spectra at about 10eV higher binding energy side relative the main peak comes from the multiplet structures of $\underline{3d}4f^6$ configuration. The satellite structure appearing at about 15 eV higher binding energy side relative to the main peak in all insulating rare-earth compounds is due to an energy loss process of creating a plasmon.

We investigated the structure of an ultra-thin insulating board with low thermal conductivity along z-axis, which was based on the idea of void layers created during the glass infiltration process for the zero-shrinkage low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology. An alumina and four glass powders were chosen and prepared as green sheets by the tape casting method. After comparison of the four glass powders, bismuth glass was selected for the experiment. Since there is no notable reactivity between alumina and bismuth glass, alumina was selected as the supporting additive in glass layers. With 2.5 vol% of alumina powder, glass green sheets were prepared and stacked alternately with alumina green sheet to form the 'alumina/glass (including alumina additive)/alumina' structure. The stacked green sheets were sintered into an insulating substrate. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the additive alumina formed supporting bridges in void layers. The depth and number of the stacking layers were varied to examine the insulating property. The lowest thermal conductivity obtained was 0.23 W/mK with a $500-{\mu}m-thick$ substrate.

The furfural, generated by decomposition of insulating paper, the amount of metal in insulating oil, and tano(electrical properties of insulating oil)have been studied for the insulating oil in pole transformer with accelarated thermal aging test. It has been found that tan $\delta$ is affected by adding components of the transformer. The examination of amount of metal, which exhibits catalytic behavior to oxidation of insulating oil, suggested that the amounts of copper increase with degradation time. A comparison between tano and copper amount suggested that the amounts of copper for attention are above 0.2[pp]). Finally, the examination of amount of furfural revealed that the amounts of furfural increase with degradation time. As a consequence, these results could be used for diagnosis of pole transformer.former.

Mineral electrical insulating oil, which is widely used in transformers, exhibits excellent cooling performance and transformer efficiency. However, given that it is composed of petroleum-based components, it is weak in terms of biodegradability. This causes environmental problems in case of leakage and a low flash point, which is a factor that would cause great damage in the event of a fire in a substation. In this context, the use of eco-friendly electric insulating oil composed of bio-based vegetable oil and synthetic ester, which has excellent biodegradability and flame retardancy performance, has recently been expanded to the field of electric power, and various research and development (R&D) studies are in progress. According to different research results, vegetable oil and synthetic ester manufacturing technology, thermal stability, oxidation stability, property change, and quality control, which are characteristics of eco-friendly electrical insulating oils, are major factors affecting the maintenance of insulating oil properties. In addition, power companies have established and operated quality control standards according to the use of eco-friendly electrical insulating oil as they expand the exploitatoin of renewable energy in electricity production. In particular, deterioration and oxidation characteristics were jointly identified in R&D as an important influencing factor according to the content of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids present in vegetable oils and synthetic esters in power transformer applications.

This paper described the capacitive sensor for the diagnosis of deterioration of electrical insulating oils applying guard-ring type the 3-terminal electrodes. To measure stable capacitance of the sensor and to determine the design factors of the sensor, we utilized computational analysis, FEM software. This capacitive sensor discern the extent of deterioration measuring relative permittivity of electrical insulating oils. The result of measuring numerous sample, mineral oils, as serviced year, we confirmed an increase in relative permittivity of oils. Moreover, we confirmed the superior characteristics of the sensor as a species, aged pattern of oils and operating temperature.

Furnace를 이용한 $POCl_3$ 확산 공정은 실리콘 태양전지 제작과정에서 일반적으로 이용되는 에미터 층 형성 공정이다. 하지만, 확산 공정을 통해 P-N Junction을 형성할 경우 전면과 후면의 contact현상이 발생하게 되고 이를 제거하기 위해 Edge isolation 공정을 거치게 된다. 최근에는 레이저로 V 모양의 홈을 형성하는 방법이 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 p-type 실리콘 웨이퍼 기판에 insulating barrier를 형성하여 edge isolation 공정을 없앤 Non-edge isolation공정을 제시한다. Non p-type 실리콘 웨이퍼에 insulating barrier를 형성한다.

In this work, a new family of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) based esters have been synthesized that consists eight ester functional groups. These are classified into Type-I and Type-II esters based on the starting materials, octakis(3-chloropropyl)silsesquioxane (Cl-POSS) and octakis(3-hydroxypropyldimethylsiloxy) octasilsesquioxane (OHPS) respectively. These new POSS type ester moieties can be used as insulating oils and oil additives in the transformers and also considered to be alternatives to mineral and vegetable oils that are presently used in the insulation system.

In this paper, attenuation characteristics of silica-based variable optical attenuator (VOA) with heat insulating structures are investigated by variations of structural parameters and heating power at wavelength 1.55${\mu}m$. The characteristics of power dissipation and attenuation at this VOA was optimized in terms of heating insulating width, under-cladding height and over-cladding height. The optimized maximum attenuation of this VOA was achieved about 31dB at heating power 150mW.

Purpose: The current study analyzed trends in thermal insulation performance with aging, and condensation characteristics caused by the former. Method: Thermal insulation and condensation prevention performance of an architecture were assessed using Temperature Difference Ration Inside, or TDRi. Subjects of this quantitative analysis in thermal insulation performance change due to aging included recently constructed apartments and aged apartments older than 40 years. Time series comparison and analysis were conducted to observed changes in the thermal insulation performance and condensation characteristics. Result: Analysis showed that wall insulation performance degraded with aging regardless of fortified insulating material usage or insulating material type, which caused increased danger of condensation. In addition, when fortified insulating material was installed on the connection between the walls, insulation performance degradation was lower compared to cases in which fortified materials were not used. In all cases from 1 to 10, the rate of thermal insulation performance degradation increased after 20 years of aging.
