In this paper, electrical and reliability properties of N$_2$O oxides, grown at the temperature of 95$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$ to 74$\AA$, and 82$\AA$. respectively, using NS12TO gas in a conventional furnace, have been compared with those of pure oxide grown at the temperature of 850 to 84$\AA$ using O$_2$ gas. Initial IS1gT-VS1gT characteristics of N$_2$O oxides were similar to those of pure oxide, and reliability properties of N$_2$O oxides, such as charge trapping, interface state density and leakage current at low electric field under F-N stress, were improved much better than those of pure oxide. But, with increasing capacitor area. TDDB characteristics of N$_2$O oxides were more degraded than those of pure oxide and this degradation of TDDB characteristics was more severe in 100$0^{\circ}C$ N$_2$Ooxide than in 95$0^{\circ}C$ N$_2$O oxide. The improvement of reliability properties excluding TDDB in N$_2$Ooxides was attributed to the hardness of the interface improved by nitrogen pile-up at the interface of Si/SiO$_2$, but on the other hand, the degradation of TDDB characteristics in N$_2$O oxides was obsered due to the increase of local thinning spots caused by excessive nitrogen at interface during the growth of N$_2$O oxides.

Purpose: The study was done to compare the status of dispatch of public officials in charge of health care in response to COVID-19 according to location of primary health care posts and the practitioners' knowledge, attitude and support related to COVID-19. Methods: Among the 193 practitioners surveyed, 175 people in Chungcheong-do, Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do were selected for final analysis according to work status and differences in knowledge, attitude and support. Data were analyzed using χ2 and one-way ANOVA, followed by a Scheffé-test. Results: There was a statistically significant difference by region in the number of days and places for dispatch teams to respond to COVID-19. In particular, in the case of support, the overall score was low, but Gyeongsang-do, which had the longest number of dispatch days due the occurrence of a large-scale confirmation of patients, showed higher support compared to other regions. Knowledge of COVID-19 was high, but there were no regional differences. Conclusion: Regarding performance of COVID-19 response tasks, the support level was low, indicating that psychological support and appropriate compensation from the local government are required. In addition, it is necessary to prepare a system for the provision of alternative services to prevent a work gap in health clinics.

A method for measuring the length and slope of a temporary structure using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and 3D modeling method is proposed. The actual length and slope of the vertical member of the specimen were measured and compared with the measured values obtained by the proposed method for the specimens with and without the vertical protection net installed. Based on the result of measuring the length of the temporary structure specimen using the UAV and 3D modeling method, the measured value showed an error of 0.87% when compared to the actual length in the specimen without the vertical protection net installed. In addition, the error of the slope was 0.63°. It was thought that the proposed method could be usable for the purpose of finding parts in wrong installation state on the temporary structure and informing the manager in charge. However, in the case of the specimen with the vertical protection net, the measurement showed a 1.46% error in length and 2.77° difference in slope. Therefore, if a vertical protection net is to be installed in a temporary structure, the measurement accuracy should be improved by utilizing an image processing method, etc.

Plug-in Hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) show great potential to reduce gas emission, improve fuel efficiency and offer more driving range flexibility. Moreover, PHEV help to preserve the eco-system, climate changes and reduce the high demand for fossil fuels. To address this; some basic components and energy resources have been used, such as batteries and proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells (FCs). However, the FC remains unsatisfactory in terms of power density and response. In light of the above, an electric storage system (ESS) seems to be a promising solution to resolve this issue, especially when it comes to the transient phase. In addition to the FC, a storage system made-up of an ultra-battery UB is proposed within this paper. The association of the FC and the UB lead to the so-called Fuel Cell Battery Electric Vehicle (FCBEV). The energy consumption model of a FCBEV has been built considering the power losses of the fuel cell, electric motor, the state of charge (SOC) of the battery, and brakes. To do so, the implementing a reinforcement-learning energy management strategy (EMS) has been carried out and the fuel cell efficiency has been optimized while minimizing the hydrogen fuel consummation per 100km. Within this paper the adopted approach over numerous driving cycles of the FCBEV has shown promising results.

The effects of dopant activation anneal on GOI (Gate Oxide Integrity) of MOS capacitor with amorphous silicon gate electrode were investigated. It was found that the amorphous silicon gate electrode was crystallized and the dopant atoms were sufficiently activated by activation anneal. The mechanical stress of gate electrode that reveals large compressive stress in amorphous state, was released with increase of anneal temperature from $700^{\circ}C$ to 90$0^{\circ}C$. The resistivity of gate electrode polycrystalline silicon film is decreased by the increase of anneal temperature. The reliability of thin gate oxide and interface properties between oxide and silicon substrate greatly depends on the activation anneal temperature. The charge trapping characteristics as well as oxide reliability are improved by the anneal of 90$0^{\circ}C$ compare to that of $700^{\circ}C$ or 80$0^{\circ}C$. Especially, the lifetimes of the thin gate oxide estimated by TDDB method is 3$\times$10$^{10}$ for the case of $700^{\circ}C$ anneal, is significantly increased to 2$\times$10$^{12}$ for the case of 90$0^{\circ}C$ anneal. Finally, the interface trap density is reduced with relaxation of mechanical stress of gate electrode.

In lots of application to heat exchanger systems, closed two-phase thermosyphons are tilted from a horizontal. If the tilt angle, especially, is less than 30$^{\circ}$, the operational performances of thermosyphon are highly dependent on tilt angle. The present study was conducted to better understand such operational behaviors as mech-anni는 of phase change, and flow patterns inside a tilted thermosyphon. For experiment, an ethanol thermosyphon with a 35% of fill charge rate was designed and manufactured, using a copper tube with a diameter 19mm and a length 1500mm. Through a series of test, the tilt angle was kept constant at each of 4 different values in the range 10~25deg. and the heat supply to the evaporator was stepwisely increased up to 30㎾/$m^2$. When a steady state was established to the thermosyphon for each step of thermal loads, the wall temperature distribution and vapor temperature at the condenser were measured. The wall temperature distributions demonstrated a formation of dry patch in the top end zone of the evaporator, with a values of temperature 20~4$0^{\circ}C$ higher than the wetted surface for a moderate heat flux q≒20㎾/$m^2$. Inspite of the presence of hot dry patch, however, the mean values of boiling heat transfer coefficient at the evaporator wall were still in a good agreement with those predicted by Rohsenow's formula, which was based on nucleate boiling. For the condenser, the wall temperatures were practically uniform, and the measured values of condensation heat transfer coefficient were 1.7 times higher than the predicted values obtained from Nusselt's film condensation theory on tilted plate. Using those two expressions, a correlation was formulated as a function of heat flux and tilt angle, to determine the total thermal resistance of a tilted thermosyphon. The correlation formula showed a good agreement with the experimental data within 20%.

NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ phosphor thin films were grown on quartz substrates by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering at a growth temperature of 100 ℃, with subsequent annealing at temperatures of 800, 900, and 1000 ℃. The effects of annealing temperature on the structural, morphological, and optical properties of the thin films were investigated. The NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ sputtering target was synthesized by a solid-state reaction of raw materials Na₂CO₃, Nb₂O₅, and Eu₂O₃. The X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited that the thin films had two mixed phases of NaNbO₃ and Eu₂O₃. Surface morphologies were investigated by using field emission-scanning electron microscopy and indicated that the grains of the thin film annealed at 1000 ℃ showed irregular shapes with an average size of approximately 300 nm. The excitation spectra of Eu³⁺-doped NaNbO₃ thin film consisted of a strong charge transfer band centered at 304 nm in the range of 240-350 nm and two weak peaks at 395 and 462 nm, respectively, resulting from the ⁷F₀→⁵L₆ and ⁷F₀→⁵H₂ transitions of Eu³⁺ ions. The emission spectra under excitation at 304 nm exhibited an intense red band centered at 614 nm and two weak bands at 592 and 681 nm. As the annealing temperature increased from 800 ℃ to 1000 ℃, the intensities of all the emission bands and the band gap energies gradually increased. These results indicate that the higher annealing temperature enhance the luminescent properties of NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ thin films.

Solar energy harvesting is practiced by various nations for the purpose of energy security and environment preservation in order to reduce overdependence on oil. Converting solar energy into electrical energy through Photovoltaic (PV) module can take place either in on-grid or off-grid applications. In recent time Lithium battery is exhibiting its presence in on-grid applications but its role in off-grid application is rarely discussed in the literature. The preliminary capacity and Peukert's study indicated that the battery quality is good and can be subjected for life cycle test. The capacity of the battery was 10.82 Ah at 1 A discharge current and the slope of 1.0117 in the Peukert's study indicated the reaction is very fast and independent on rate of discharge. In this study Lithium Iron Phosphate battery (LFP) after initial characterization was subjected to life cycle test which is specific to solar off-grid application as defined in IEC standard. The battery has delivered just 6 endurance units at room temperature before its capacity reached 75% of rated value. The low life of LFP battery in off-grid application is discussed based on State of Charge (SOC) operating window. The battery was operated both in high and low SOC's in off-grid application and both are detrimental to life of lithium battery. High SOC operation resulted in cell-to-cell variation and low SOC operation resulted in lithium plating on negative electrode. It is suggested that to make it more suitable for off-grid applications the battery by default has to be overdesigned by nearly 40% of its rated capacity.

For this study, the sol gel method was used to synthesize the spinel LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄ (LNMO) electrode material. Structural, morphological, electrochemical, and kinetic aspects of the LNMO have been characterized. The synthesized LNMO was indexed with the Fd3m cubic space group. The excellent capacity retention indicates that the spinel framework of LNMO has the ability to withstand high rate charge-discharge throughout long cycle tests. The Li diffusion coefficient (D_Li) changes non-monotonically across three orders of magnitude, from 10^-9 to 10^-12 cm² s^-1 determined from GITT method. The variation of D_Li seemed to be related to three oxidation reactions that happened throughout the charging process. A small dip in D_Li at the beginning stage of Li deintercalation is correlated with the oxidation of Mn³⁺ to Mn⁴⁺. While two pronounced D_Li minima at 4.7 V and 4.75 V are due to the oxidation of Ni²⁺/Ni³⁺ and Ni³⁺/Ni⁴⁺ respectively. The depletion of D_Li at the high voltage region is attributed to the occurrence of two successive phase transformation phenomena.
