In high-voltage devices such as thyristor, beveling is mostly used junction termination method to reduce the surface electric field far below the bulk electric field and to expand the depletion region thus that breakdown occurs in the bulk of the device rather than at the surface. However, coating material used to protect the surface of the device contain so many charges which affect the electrical characteristics of the device. And device reliability is also affected by this charge. Therefore, it is needed to analyze the effect of surface charge on electrical characteristics of the device. In this paper, we analyzed the breakdown voltage and leakage current characteristics of the thyristor as a function of the amount of surface charge density. Two dimensional process simulator ATHENA and two-dimensional device simulator ATLAS is used to analyze the surface charge effects.

Surface corona discharge characteristics of a dc corona charged ferroelectric pellet barrier have been investigated experimentally. Electric charges stored on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets by a dc corona discharge provide partial electric fields on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets, which could generate surface corona discharges on the ferroelectric pellets. This system utilizes both the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellet barrier and the corona discharge between corona tip and mesh electrode. Positive and negative dc voltages were applied to the tip to generate partial discharges, and corona currents were estimated to investigate the buildup charge on ferroelectric pellets as a function of the applied time and the charge relaxation time constants of ferroelectric pellets. As a result, in the case of the negative corona discharge with the ferroelectric pellet barrier, the mean corona current and ozone generation increase greatly, and the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellets can be fenerated efficiently. It is also found that, charge relaxation time, dielectric constants offerroelectric pellets, polarity of applied voltage and applied time affected to the surface discharges among the ferroelectric pellets.

Especially, Fiber glass Reinforced Plastics(FRP) is the best composite insulating material which has been so far. Therefore, it's worthy of notice to investigate on the corona electrified composite insulating material by surface condition. And then some other materials will be focussed on. In this study, charge decay were measured with charging-time and grid voltage on FRP composite material surface in order to analyze the mechanism. As a result we have studied that the way of the composite glass fiber(GF) and Polymer and the condition of the contaminated surface was different. In case of the GF is mixed with vertical, charge decay speed is fast because the charge is easily leaked. On the other hand, the surface charge decay speed is depend on conductive or insulated of the contaminant.

Polystyrene (PS) nanospheres with a monodisperse size distribution, positive surface charge and high molecular weight were successfully synthesized using various types of metal stearates in an aqueous NaOH medium. The diameter of the PS nanospheres was controlled from 80 to 450 nm by changing the type of metal stearate. It was also found that controlling the NaOH concentration in solution was important for producing monodisperse PS nanoparticles. The nanospheres prepared with zinc stearate possessed a positive surface charge of 60 to 80 mV, confirming that PS particles were functionalized with metal stearates. It is believed that the metal stearates provide PS particles with not only colloidal stability but also a positive surface charge.

This study was attempted to propose a method evaluating fixation of active ingredients in Copper-Chromium-Arsenic preservatives treatment. Fixated amount of active ingredients on wood was obtained by measuring the density of surface electric charge based on $\varsigma$ potential. Data accumulated from density of surface electric charge showed that the fixated amount of preservatives on wood increased linearly as concentration of treating solution increaced, which indicatied quantitative reactions in fixation of preservatives.

This paper deals with calculation of surface charge density on current carrying conductors by FEM. The proposed algorithm is formulated by equation of continutity in conductor region and maxwell's equations outside, respectively, Surface charge density is calculated by electric scalar potential and boundary condition for electrostatic fields.

Unlike AC, DC dielectric characteristics of the spacer are very influenced by the quantity and the distribution of surface charges. A general impression of the distribution of surface charges is obtained if electrostatic powders are sprinkled over the surface. The distribution of surface charge was investigated with dust figures. Mechanism of charge accumulation on the spacer of $SF_6$ GIS has been studied using various types of model spacers which have different depths. As a result, it was found that charge accumulation was dominantly influenced by the normal component of the electric field and the usage of embedded electrodes was an adequate method to lessen field concentration around the triple junction. The guide of the optimum depth of the spacer was proposed.

Zinc-Borosilicate is used as a side insulator wall to make high breakdown voltage with one Field Limiting Ring in a power p-n junction device in simulation. It is known that surface charge density can be yield at the interface of Zinc-Borosilicate glass / silicon system. When the glass is used as a side insulator wall, surface charge varied potential distribution and breakdown voltage is improved 1090 V under the same structure.The breakdown voltage under varying the surface charge density has a limit value. When the epitaxial thickness is varied, the position of FLR doesn't influence to the breakdown characteristic not only under non punch-through structure but also under punch-through structure.

The fabrication of devices using plans technology could lend to n serious degradation in the breakdown voltage as a result of high electric field at the edges. An elegant approach to reducing the electric field at the edge is by using field limiting ring. The presence of surface charge has n strong influrence on the depletion layer spreading at the surface region because this charge complements the charge due to the ionized acceptors inside the depletion layer. Surface charge of either polarity can lower the breakdown voltage because it affects the distribution of electric field st the edges. In this paper we discuss the influrences of fixed oxide charge on the breakdown voltage of the p+/n junction with field limiting ring(or without field limiting ring).
