  • Novel organic dyes, JK-34, JK-35 and JK-36 containing bis-dimethylfluorenyl amino coumarin unit are designed and synthesized. Nanocrystalline TiO2 dye-sensitized solar cells were fabricated using these dyes. Under standard global AM 1.5 solar condition, the JK-34 sensitized cell gave a short circuit photocurrent density of 10.05 mA cm?2, open circuit voltage of 0.65 V, and a fill factor of 0.68, corresponding to an overall conversion efficiency η of 4.54%. We found that the power conversion efficiency was shown to be quite sensitive to the structural modifications of bridging thiophene moiety.

  • Anchoring quantum dots (QDs) onto thermodynamically stable, large band gap oxide semiconductors is a very important strategy to enhance their quantum yields for solar energy conversion in both visible and near-IR regions. We describe a general procedure for anchoring a few chalcogenide QDs onto the titanium oxide layer. To anchor the colloidal QDs onto a mesoporous TiO2 layer, linker molecules containing both carboxylate and thiol functional groups were initially attached to TiO2 layers and subsequently used to capture dispersed QDs with the thiol group. Employing the procedure, we exploited cadmium selenide (CdSe) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots (QDs) as inorganic sensitizers for a large band gap TiO2 layer of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Their attachment was confirmed by naked eyes, absorption spectra, and photovoltaic effects. A few QD-TiO2 systems thus obtained have been characterized for photoelectrochemical solar energy conversion.

  • 태양열과 프레온 R-12 기체 압축열 복합온수기를 개발하여 실용화할 수 있도록 했으며 개발 내용은 다음과 같다. 가. 라디에타형 집열기와 평판형 집열기를 고안하여 프레온 R-12 기체와 액체가 상변이를 하면서 순환하여 태양복사열과 간접복사열을 흡수하고 대기의 대류접촉전열을 통해 대기열을 효과적으로 흡수하도록 개발했다. 나. 저장조하부에 압축기를 위치하도록 하고 압축기 가동시 발생하는 압축기의 표면열과 압축기에서 발생된 기체열이 가장 효과적으로 저장조내에 주입되도록 압축기와 저장조내에 위치한 열교환기의 연결관을 축소화했다. 다. 저장조내에 압축된 기체로부터 열교환을 더욱 효과적으로 하기 위해 열교환기를 새로 고안하여 개발했다. 라. 2801, $50^{\circ}C$ 온수를 매일 생산하도록 하여도 혹한기에 월 6,000원 이하의 전기료가 소요됨을 실측했다. 마. 프레온 R-12 순환시스템으로 우리나라의 기후에서 태양열온수기 제작에 최대 장애요인인 동파문제를 완전제거 할 수 있었고 조작이 완전자동이며 하자 발생요인이 거의 없고 수명이 길며 제작단가가 낮아 보급에 큰 잇점이 있을 것임을 확인했다.

  • Glass texturing is a sufficient method for changing the surface morphology to enhance the light trapping. In this study, glass texturing was applied to the perovskite solar cell for improving the current density. Glass substrates (back-side glass of FTO coated glass substrate) were textured by randomly structure assisted wet etching process using diluted HF solution at a constant concentration of etchants (HF:H2O=1:1). Then, the light trapping properties of suitable films were controlled over a wide range by varying the etching time (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 min.). The surface texturing changed the reflected light in an angle that it can be reflected by substrate glass surface. As a result, Current density and cell efficiency were affected by light trapping layer using glass texturing method in perovskite solar cells.

  • The influence of the grain size of the $CH_3NH_3PbI_3$ on the solar cell performance is investigated by controlling the ratio between $CH_3NH_3I$ and $PbI_2$ precursors. As the concentration of the precursors increased from 1.0M to 2.0M, the $CH_3NH_3PbI_3$ grain size increased from ~100nm to ~400nm. The solar cell utilizing the $CH_3NH_3PbI_3$ with large grain size shows improved photocurrent compared to the solar cell utilizing $CH_3NH_3PbI_3$ with small grain size, which is ascribed to the reduced recombination at the boundaries of grains.
