박막 태양전지의 광 산란을 위한 텍스쳐 된 표면은 반사 손실을 감소시키기 위한 것이다. 그러나, 투명한 전극(TCO)의 텍스쳐 된 표면은 빛의 가용성을 제한하고, 장파장 영역에서 haze의 수치를 감소시키며, 전반사의 증가는 박막 태양전지의 Jsc를 감소시킨다. 본 논문에서는 높은 빛의 가용성을 위하여 HF+HCl 혼합용액을 이용하여 표면의 질을 향상시키기 위한 해결책을 제시했다. 같은 HF+HCl 혼합용액을 사용하여, 540 nm의 파장에서 약 85 %의 높은 haze 수치를 달성했으며, ZnO:Al 막의 증착 후에 식각된 유리 기판과 함께 비교했을 때, 2.3%의 haze 수치의 감소를 얻었다. 또, 깊은 습식 식각에 의하여 Haze 수치를 증가시키기 위한 메커니즘 간단히 설명했다. 텍스쳐 된 유리 기판의 haze 수치의 측면에서 광학 이득은 일반적인 Asahi FTO 유리(${\lambda}=540nm$의 13.5%)에 비해 상당히 높다. 이러한 높은 haze 수치의 AZO 박막은 박막 태양전지의 Jsc를 개선하는데 이용할 수 있다.

To obtain available process at low temperature, SiOC thin film was prepared with various flow rates by using the rf magnetron sputtering, and AZO thin film was also deposited on SiOC film by rf magnetron sputtering system. The optical electrical properties of the SiOC film and SiOC/AZO were analyzed by the uv visible spectrometer and PL spectra. SiOC film on n type Si showed various type emission according to the deposition condition. The SiOC film showed the blue shift with increasing the thickness in PL spectra. AZO/SiOC/Si film had a broad emission characteristic, which is enhanced the efficiency in solar cell.

The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the CuGaSe$_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CuGaSe$_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 610$^{\circ}C$ and 450$^{\circ}C$, respectively The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the CuGaSe$_2$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting Δ So and the crystal field splitting ΔCr were 91 meV and 249.8 meV at 20 K, respectively. From the Photoluminescence measurement on CuGaSe$_2$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition (Ex) existing only high quality crystal and neutral bound exiciton (D$^{\circ}$,X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full-width-at-half-maximum(FWHM) and binding energy 7f neutral acceptor bound excision were 8 meV and 35.2 meV, respectivity. By Haynes rule, an activation energy of impurity was 355.2 meV

In this paper represented uninterruptible power sypply(UPS) equipment maintaining constant output voltage, using a pulse width modulation(PWM) voltage fed inverter, as power source disconnection, voltage variation and output current variation with load variation. This system is driven by being synchronized voltage fed inverter and AC source, and in the steady state of power source charge battery connected to DC side with solar cell using a Photovoltaic (PV) that it was so called constant voltage charge. In addition, better output waveform was generated because of PWM(pulse width Modulation) method, and it was Proved to test by experiment maintained constant output voltage regardless of AC source disconnection, load variation, and voltage variation of AC power source.

In our report a relatively simple process for fast nano-texturing of p-type(100) CZ- silicon surface using silver catalyzed wet chemical etching in aqueous hydrofluoric acid (HF) and hydrogen peroxide solution($H_2O_2$) at room temperature. The wafers were saw-damaged by NaOH(6 wt%) at $60^{\circ}C$ for 150s. To obtain a nano-structured black surface, a thin layer of silver with thickness of 1 - 10 nm was deposited on the surfaces by evaporation system. After this process the samples were etched in HF : $H_2O_2$ : $H_2O$ = 1:5:10 at room temperature for 80s - 220s. Due to the local catalytic of the Ag clusters, this treatment results in the nano-scale texturing on the surface. This resulted in average reflectance values less than 9% after the silver on the surface of the wafers were removed.

The process of manufacturing printed electronics using printing technology is attracting attention because its process cost is lower than that of the conventional semiconductor process. This technology, which offers both a lower cost and higher productivity, can be applied in the production of organic TFT (thin film transistor), solar cell, RFID(radio frequency identification) tag, printed battery, E-paper, touch screen panel, black matrix for LCD(liquid crystal display), flexible display, and so forth. In general, in order to implement printed electronics, narrow width and gap printing, registration of multi-layer printing by several printing units, and printing accuracy of under $20\;{\mu}m$ are all required. These electronic products require high precision to the degree of tens of microns - in a large area with flexible material, and mass productivity at low cost. As such, the roll-to-roll printing process is attracting attention as a mass production system for these printed electronic devices. For the commercialization of this process, two basic electronic ink technologies, such as conductive ink and polymers, and printing equipment have to be developed. Therefore, this paper addressed basis design and test to develop fine patterning equipment employing the roll-to-roll printing equipment and electronic ink.

With the recognition of nanotechnology as one of the future strategic technologies, the R&D efforts have been performed under exclusive supports of governments and private sectors. At present, nanotechnology is at the focus of research and public attention in almost every advanced country including USA, Japan, and many others in EU. Keeping tracks of such technical trends, center for nanoscale mechatronics and manufacturing (CNMM) was established in 2002 as a part of national nanotechnology promotion policy led by ministry of science and technology (MOST) in Korea. It will hold widespread potential applications in electronics, optical electronics, biotechnology, micro systems, etc, with the promises of commercial visibility and competitiveness. In this paper, wafer scale multilayer nanoimprint lithography technology which is well-known the next generation lithography, roll-typed nanoimprint lithography (R-NIL), roll-typed liquid transfer imprint lithography (R-LTIL), the key technology for nanomanufacturing and nanoscale measurement technology will be introduced. Additionally, its applications and some achievements such as solar cell, biosensor, hard disk drive, and MOSFET, etc by means of the developed multilayer nanoimprint lithography system are introduced.

Methylene blue(MB) was photocatalytically degraded with one-body photoanode and solar simulator to investigate the possible application to both environmental purification and photoelectrochemical cell for hydrogen production. Photoactive titanium dioxide was formed on both sides of Ti plate following steps such as rinsing-annealing-calcination or anodizing(20 V, 30 V)-annealing($350^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C)$ after etching. The prepared titania plate($2cm{\times}2\;cm$, ca 1.6 mg $TiO_2$ on the basis of $1\;{\mu}m$ thickness) was used to degrade MB(10 ppm in 200 mL solution). The reaction tended to follow the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetics with zero order. Comparative experiments with Degussa P25 showed the same zero order kinetics when 2 mg of P25 had been used, while the first order kinetics when 200 mg used. This concludes the feasibility of the prepared titania plate as a material for the purification of low-level harmful organics and an electrode or a membrane for photoelectrochemical system for hydrogen production.

본 연구에서는 ripple 구조의 ZnO 박막을 역 구조 태양전지 내에서의 전자 수집층 으로 사용하였으며, $P3HT/IC_{60}BA$와 PEDOT을 각각 active layer와 정공 수집층 으로 사용하였다. zinc acetate의 농도 조절을 통해 다양한 두께와 roughness를 갖는 ripple 구조의 ZnO를 합성할 수 있었으며, hot plate위에서의 온도 조절을 통해 저온에서의 ZnO ripple를 합성할 수 있었다. 다른 농도를 사용해 합성한 ZnO ripple들 보다 0.6M의 zinc acetate를 사용하였을 때 가장 높은 power conversion efficiency (PCE) 와 external quantum efficiency (EQE)를 보여주었다. AFM과 SEM 분석을 통해 0.6M의 zinc acetate조건에서는 표면적이 가장 넓으면서도 다른 농도를 사용 하였을 때에 비해 상대적으로 ripple의 깊이가 더 깊은 표면을 갖는 ZnO가 생성됨을 알 수 있었다. 이는 상대적으로 넓은 surface area를 갖는 ZnO ripple과 active layer 계면사이에서 보다 용이한 charge transfer가 이루어 질수 있기 때문이다.

This paper describes the development of hardware simulator for the operation analysis of DC microgrid. The hardware simulator consists of several distributed power sources such as a wind power generation, solar power and fuel cell, and two energy storages such as a supercapacitor and battery. The main controller which performs a role of energy management and state monitoring is connected with the local controller in each power source and storage through ethernet-based communication link. The developed hardware simulator can be utilized to analyze the performance DC microgrid with practical manner.
