실리콘 이종접합 태양전지는 diffused dopant를 이용하여 high conductivity의 emitter를 가지는 기존의 crystalline silicon 태양전지와는 다르게 a-Si:H를 이용한 low conductivity emitter 때문에 TCO를 front electrode 및 anti-reflection layer로 사용한다. 하지만 TCO와 emitter사이의 work function mismatch에 의한 band-offset이 발생하고 photo-generation된 carrier의 injection을 막아 효율 상승을 제한하게 된다. 본 연구는 산소 반응성 스퍼터링을 통한 front TCO의 일함수 변경과 이에 따른 TCO와 emitter 계면에 존재하는 band-offset 변화에 대하여 분석하였다. 특히 산소 분압에 따른 front TCO의 일함수 변화에 따라 개방전압 및 단락전류 변화가 두드러지게 나타났으며, 직렬저항 성분 변화에 따른 충진률 변화에 따른 효율상승을 얻을 수 있었다.

오늘 날 태양전지 산업에서 가장 많은 생산을 하고 있는 분야는 결정질 태양전지분야이다. 현재는 이러한 시대적 요구에 따라 많은 연구가 진행되고 있는데 특히 junction을 이루는 n layer의 doping profile을 선택적으로 형성하여 개방전압 및 단락전류를 향상시키는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 n type layer의 doping profile을 선택적으로 형성하는 selective emitter solar cell에 관한 연구로써 SILVACO simulation을 이용하여 low Rs 영역은 고정하고 high Rs 영역의 doping depth를 가변 함으로써 high Rs 영역을 달리 형성하는 방법으로 selective emitter solar cell의 high Rs영역의 최적화에 관한 전산모사를 실시하였다. 각각의 가변조건에 따라 quantum efficiency를 통한 광학적 분석과 I-V를 통한 전기적 분석을 하여 high Rs영역을 최적화 하였다.

In this paper, the new dual trench gate Emitter Switched Thyristor (DTG-EST) is proposed for improving snap-back effect which leads to a lot of serious problems of device applications. And the parasitic thyristor that is inherent in the conventional EST is completely eliminated in this structure, allowing higher maximum controllable current densities for ESTs. The conventional EST exhibits snap-back with the anode voltage and current density 2.73V and $35A/cm^2$, respectively. But the proposed DTG-EST exhibits snap-back with the anode voltage and current density 0.96V and $100A/cm^2$, respectively.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have used as an electron field emitter of the field emission display (FED) due to their characteristics of high-electron emission, rapid response and low power consumption. However, to commercialize the FED with CNT emitter, some fundamental problems regarding life time and emission efficiency have to be solved. In this study, we investigated the $TiO_2$ coated CNT as a field emitter. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles can coated on CNT surface by chemical solution method. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles had uniform size with the average size of about 2.4 nm to 3.1 nm. Field emission performance of CNT coated with $TiO_2$ nanoparticles was evaluated and discussed.

Extremely sharp and uniform Transfer Mold FEAs with thin film low work function TiN emitter material have been fabricated by controlling the thickness of the coated emitter materials to realize high efficient, high reliable and low-cost vacuum nanoelectronic devices..Their tip radii are 8.3-13.8 nm. Turn-on electric fields of the Ni FEAs and TiN-FEAs resulted in the low electric field values of $31.6\;V/{\mu}m$ and $44.2V/{\mu}m$,respectively, at the short emitter/anode distance: less than $30\;{\mu}m$, which are lower than those of conventional FE As such as Spindt type FEAs and carbon nan otube FEAs The Transfer Metal Mold fabrication method is one of the best methods of changing emit ter materials with sharp and uniform emit ter shapes.

In this paper, we have fabricated a triode field emitter using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) directly grown by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD) method as an electron omission source. Vertically aligned CNTs have been grown in the center of the gate hole, to the size of 1.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in diameter, with help of a sacrificial layer of a type generally used in metal tip process. By the method of tilling the substrate, we made CNTs emitters both with and without SiO$_2$layer, a sidewall protector, deposited on sidewall of gate. After that we researched the electrical characteristics about two types of emitters. In effect, a sidewall protector can enhance the electrical characteristics by suppressing the problem of short circuits between the gate and the CNTs. The leakage current of an emitter with a sidewall protector is approximately sevenfold lower than that of an emitter without it at a gate voltage of 100 V.

A preliminary study on. field emitter array cathodes was conducted aiming at applying for electrodymanic tether (EDT) propulsion systems. The EDT propulsion systems are assumed to use for active removal systems of post-mission spacecraft, which would otherwise become space debris. A survey on field emit-ter array cathode technology was conducted, and it showed that carbon nanotube (CNT) emitters are suit-able to EDT application. Trial fabrications and evaluation tests of CNT emitters were conducted, which demonstrated a target emission current density of 10 ㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$. It was found out that the most important technical issue for developing CNT emitters is to improve the performance against voltage breakdown between the emitter and the opposite electrode.

In this paper, we present the simulation of the heterojunction bipolar transistor with different Emitter-Base junction structures. Our simulation results include effect of setback and graded layer. We prove the emitter efficiency's improvement through setback and graded layer. In 1995, the analytical equations of electric field, electrostatic potential, and junction capacitance for abrupt and linearly graded heterojunctions with or without a setback layer was derived. But setback layer and linearly graded layer's recombination current was considered numerically. Later, recombination current model included setback layer and graded layer will be proposed. New recombination current model also wile include abrupt heterojunction's recombination current model. In this paper, the material parameters of the heterojunction bipolar transistor with different Emitter-Base junction structures is introduced.

We have proposed and fabricated two lateral type field emission diodes, poly-Si emitter by utilizing the local oxidation of silicon (LOCOS) and GaN emitter using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process. The fabricated poly-Si diode exhibited excellent electrical characteristics such as a very low turn-on voltage of 2 V and a high emission current of $300{\;}\bu\textrm{A}/tip$ at the anode-to-cathode voltage of 25 V. These superior field emission characteristics was speculated as a result of strong surface modification inducing a quasi-negative electron affinity and the increase of emitting sites due to local sharp protrusions by an appropriate activation treatment. In respect, two kinds of procedures were proposed for the fabrication of the lateral type GaN emitter: a selective etching method with electron cyclotron resonance-reactive ion etching (ECR-RIE) or a simple selective growth by utilizing $Si_3N_4$ film as a masking layer. The fabricated device using the ECR-RIE exhibited electrical characteristics such as a turn-on voltage of 35 V for $7\bu\textrm{m}$ gap and an emission current of~580 nA/l0tips at anode-to-cathode voltage of 100 V. These new field emission characteristics of GaN tips are believed to be due to a low electron affinity as well as the shorter inter-electrode distance. Compared to lateral type GaN field emission diode using ECR-RIE, re-grown GaN emitters shows sharper shape tips and shorter inter-electrode distance.
