A phase transformation study on a synthetic amorphous diopside, $(Ca,Mg)SiO_3$has been carried out up to ∼30 GPa, and ∼$1000^{\circ}C$ using a diamond anvil cell and YAG laser heating system, respectively. A starting amorphous material shows a direct transition to cubic $(Ca,Mg)SiO_3$perovskite at high pressure, which contradicts to the crystalline diopside phase transformation sequence disproportionating into mixtures of the orthorhombic$ MgSiO_3$perovskite and the cubic $CaSiO_3$perovskite phases. This discrepancy might be due to the different starting materials as well as the temperature variations at each specific experiment performed. The present phase transfor mation sequence would modify the mineralogical assemblage in the Earth transition region and the lower mantle depending upon the pressure, temperature and the oxygen partial pressure.

Regarding greenhouse gas reduction, BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) is an important technology that can generate its own power in urban buildings based on clean energy resources. In particular, the perovskite material is attracting attention as a BIPV solar cell because it can have various colors and transparency. However, it is not easy to increase both transparency and efficiency factors because solar cell transparency and efficiency are inversely related to each other. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a semi-transparent perovskite solar cell structure that can improve both transparency and efficiency, and evaluate the stability according to international standard.

Multijunction solar cells present a practical solution towards a better photovoltaic conversion for a wider spectral range. In this review, we compare different types of multi-ijunction solar cell. First, we introduce thin film multijunction solar cell include to the thin film silicon, III-V material and chalcopyrite material. Until now the maximum reported power conversion efficiencies (PCE) of solar cells having different component sub-cells are 14.0% (thin film silicon), 46% (III-V material), 4.4% (chalcopyrite material) respectively. We then discuss the development of multijunction solar cell in which c-Si is used as bottom sub-cell while III-V material, thin film silicon, chalcopyrite material or perovskite material is used as top sub-cells.

The preparation of $PbTiO_3$ powder was carried out using the oxide starting material by hydrothermal method. The powder of a crystalline phase with perovskite structure was synthesized. The optimum conditions for the preparation of powder were as follows; hydrothermal solvent; 8M-KOH or 8M-NaOH, reaction temperature; 250~$270^{\circ}C$, run time; 10 h. The ,shape of synthesized powders were well developed crystalline faces with specific surface area of about 2.3 $\textrm m^2$/g in KOH solution and about 5.0 $\textrm m^2$/g in NaOH solution. The cell parameters of powder were a = 3.90$\AA$, c = 4.14 $\AA$ and cell volume was 57.30 $\AA^3$. The cell ratio (c/a) of powder was the same as the theoretical ratio with c/a = 1.06 and the phase transition temperature(Tc) of the powders was about $470^{\circ}C$.

In recent years Sol-Gel processing provides an interesting alternative method for the fabrication of ferroelectric thin layers and powder. PZT powder was prepared from an alkoxide-based solution by a Sol-Gel method. Gelation of synthesized complex solutions, microstructure, thermal analysis and crystallization behaviors of the calcined powder were studied in accordance with a water content and a catalyst. Especially gelation and crystallization behavior were analysed with the change of pH. The gelation time decreased as the pH of the mixed solution increased. For PZT powder with 650.deg. C heat treatment, 100% perovskite phase was formed by using either acidic or basic catalyst. By using either acidic or basic catalyst, we were able to get very fine powders of uniform shape with an average particle size of 0.8-1.mu.m.

In order to investigate the dependence of a content in lead lanthanum titanate (PLT) films and heat treatment, sol-gel process has been used. Four types of PLT thin films with the chemical formula, Pb$\_$1-x/ La$\_$x/Ti$\_$1-x/4/O$_3$(X=18, 21, 24 and 28 mole %) have been fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si multi-layers and ITO/glass substrates, The post-annealing temperature in the range of 400~700 $\^{C}$ is applied for the formation of perovskite structure in PLT films. The structureal, electrical and optical properties of PLT film with the addition of La content are estimated. The films orientation and surface structure of films are studied by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and SEM(scanning electron microscopy). The P-E hysteresis loop become narrower with increasing La content. The average transmittance of the films is about 80%.

In this review, I have summarized the solar water splitting research based on the organic metal halide perovskite material, which has recently been spotlighted worldwide. Significantly, to date, recent reports have been categorized as photovoltaic-electrolyzer configuration and integrated photoelectrolysis. Research in this field is still in its early stages, and it is necessary to develop an effective protection film and manufacture a high-voltage tandem cell in the future.

Finding a solid material with a large value of the magnetocaloric effect near room temperature is of exceeding importance, since this would lead to the development of more compact and environmentally safer cooling systems. Recently, manganites become the focus of attention due to its large magnetocaloric effect. We demonstrate, via dynamic calorimetric measurements, that the large magnetocaloric effect in perovskite manganites stems from the first-order nature of the magnetic transition. Our results offer a clue in search for ideal magnetocaloric materials working in the vicinity of room temperature.

The perovskite solar cell is an active part of research in renewable energy fields such as solar energy, wind, hydroelectric power, marine energy, bioenergy, and hydrogen energy to replace fossil fuels such as oil, coal, and natural gas, which will gradually disappear as power demand increases due to the increase in use of the Internet of Things and Virtual environments due to the 4th industrial revolution. The perovskite solar cell is a solar cell device using an organic-inorganic hybrid material having a perovskite structure, and has advantages of replacing existing silicon solar cells with high efficiency, low cost solutions, and low temperature processes. In order to optimize the light absorption layer thin film predicted by the existing empirical method, reliability must be verified through device characteristics evaluation. However, since it costs a lot to evaluate the characteristics of the light-absorbing layer thin film device, the number of tests is limited. In order to solve this problem, the development and applicability of a clear and valid model using machine learning or artificial intelligence model as an auxiliary means for optimizing the light absorption layer thin film are considered infinite. In this study, to estimate the light absorption layer thin-film optimization of perovskite solar cells, the regression models of the support vector machine's linear kernel, R.B.F kernel, polynomial kernel, and sigmoid kernel were compared to verify the accuracy difference for each kernel function.

Performance of single cell at solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system is largely affected by electrocatalytic and thermal properties of cathode. Samarium-based perovskite oxide material is recently recognized as promising cathode material for intermediate temperature-operating SOFC due to its high electrocatalytic property. Perovskite structured $Sm_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3-\delta}$ and its composite material, $Sm_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3-\delta}/Sm_{0.2}Ce_{0.8}O_{1.9}$ were investigated in terms of area specific resistance (ASR), thermal expansion coefficient (TEC), thermal cycling and long term performance. $Sm_{0.2}Ce_{0.8}O_{1.9}$ was used as electrolyte material. Electrochemical ac impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and dilatometer were used to measure the cathodic properties. Composite cathode ($Sm_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3-\delta}$: $Sm_{0.2}Ce_{0.8}O_{1.9}$ = 6:4) showed a good ASR of 0.13${\Omega}$ $cm^2$ at 650$^{\circ}C$ and its TEC value was 12.3${\times}$10-6/K at 600$^{\circ}C$ which is similar to the value of ceria-based electrolyte of 11.9${\times}$10-6/K. Performance of composite cathode was maintained with no degradation even after 13 times thermal cycle test.
