  • p-type Tunnel Oxide Passivating Contacts (TOPCon) solar cell is fabricated with a poly-Si/SiOx structure. It simultaneously achieves surface passivation and enhances the carriers' selective collection, which is a promising technology for conventional solar cells. The quality of passivation is depended on the quality of the tunnel oxide layer at the interface with the c-Si wafer, which is affected by the bond of SiO formed during the subsequent annealing process. The highest cell efficiency reported to date for the laboratory scale has increased to 26.1%, fabricated by the Institute for Solar Energy Research. The cells used a p-type float zone silicon with an interdigitated back contact (IBC) structure that fabricates poly-Si and SiOx layer achieves the highest implied open-circuit voltage (iVoc) is 750 mV, and the highest level of edge passivation is 40%. This review presents an overview of p-type TOPCon technologies, including the ultra-thin silicon oxide layer (SiOx) and poly-silicon layer (poly-Si), as well as the advancement of the SiOx and poly-Si layers. Subsequently, the limitations of improving efficiency are discussed in detail. Consequently, it is expected to provide a basis for the simplification of industrial mass production.

  • This paper is about the development results of an automatic silkworm breeding system to reduce labor and time by automatically performing the works for silkworm droppings changing and feed its food. It consists of an automatic guided vehicle and a processing unit. The automatic guided vehicle transports a silkworm dropping changing frame mounted on a silkworm tray stand, and the processing unit takes over the dropping changing frame on it, removes excrement contained the droppings changing frame and feeds silkworm food. In the case of the current silkworm farming, because the breeding period for large silkworms (4 to 5 stage) is short to 14 days and the supply of mulberry leaves takes 98% of the total amount of mulberry leaves needed for breeding silkworms at this time, labor concentration is intensive, and all breeding works depends on manpower. Therefore, it was difficult to breed large silkworms on a large scale. Moreover, silkworms are bred by adding Silkworm bed (Seop) and mulberry in the silkworm tray, and their droppings changing is to separate silkworms and excrement by moving silkworm trays one by one, and the production cost increases due to the high-cost manpower for silkworm breeding. To solve this problem, technology for automating silkworm breeding has also been developed. However, there is still a limitation that silkworm feeding and droppings changing works are not suitable for mass breeding because a lot of labor and time are spent depending on manual work. Therefore, a new silkworm breeding system for breeding silkworm automatically is needed and so we developed an Automatic Silkworm Breeding System applying the droppings change frame, the inverting unit, the feeding silkworm food device and automatic guided vehicle.

  • Plasma-resistant ceramic (PRC) is a material used to prevent internal damage in plasma processing equipment for semiconductors and displays. The challenge is to suppress particles falling off from damaged surfaces and increase retention time in order to improve productivity and introduce the latest miniaturization process. Here, we confirmed the effect of suppressing plasma deterioration and reducing the etch rate through surface treatment of existing PRC with an initial illumination level of 200 nm. In particular, quartz glass showed a decrease in etch rate of up to 10%. Furthermore, it is believed that micro-scale secondary particles formed on the microstructure of each material grow as crystals during the fluoridation process. This is a factor that can act as a killer defect when dropped, and is an essential consideration when analyzing plasma resistance. The plasma etching suppression effect of the initial illumination is thought to be due to partial over etching at the dihedral angle of the material due to the sputtering of re-emission of Ar+-based cations. This means that plasma damage due to densification can also be interpreted in existing PRC studies. The research results are significant in that they present surface treatment conditions that can be directly applied to existing PRC for mass production and a new perspective to analyze plasma resistance in addition to simple etching rates.

  • 1978년 진해만에서 있었던 적조현상과 양식 굴의 대량폐사에 관한 조사결과를 요약하면 아래와 같다. 1. 진해만에서 1978넌 9월중 양식 굴의 대량폐사가 있었다. 폐사량은 $96\%$인 5,687M/T으로 피해액은 22억 7천 5백만원이었다. 2. 상기의 대량폐사는 지속된 고온, 대규모의 적조와 그로 인한 저층수의 빈산소 내지 무산소화로 인한 질식이 주 원인의 일보였다고 추측된다. 3. 적조의 원인종은 와편모조의 일종인 Ceratium fusus로서 각장 $340{\mu}m$, 각폭 $20{\mu}m$ 정도의 대형 식물플랑크톤이었다. 클로로필-a량은 최고 $50mg/m^3$ 이었다.4. 춘기의 가뭄과 6월의 다우로 성층이 형성된데다 지속된 고온과 장일조 그리고 해상의 평온함이 대규모의 적조를 유발시킨 원인의 일부라 생각된다.

  • Developments of Solid-State Gyroscopy during last decades are impressive and were based on thin-walled shell resonators like HRG or CRG made from fused quartz or leuko-sapphire. However, a number of design choices for inertial-grade gyroscopes, which can be used for high-g applications and for mass- or middle-scale production, is still very limited. So, considerations of fundamental physical effects in solids that can be used for development of a miniature, completely solid-state, and lower-cost sensor look urgent. There is a variety of different types of bulk acoustic (elastic) waves (BAW) in anisotropic solids. Shear waves with different variants of their polarization have to be studied especially carefully, because shear sounds in glasses and crystals are sensitive to a turn of the solid as a whole, and, so, they can be used for development of gyroscopic sensors. For an isotropic medium (for a glass or a fine polycrystalline body), classic Lame's theorem (so-called, a general solution of Elasticity Theory or Green-Lame's representation) has been modified for enough general case: an elastic medium rotated about an arbitrary set of axes. Travelling, standing, and mixed shear waves propagating in an infinite isotopic medium (or between a pair of parallel reflecting surfaces) have been considered too. An analogy with classic Foucault's pendulum has been underlined for the effect of a turn of a polarizational plane (i.e., an integration effect for an input angular rate) due to a medium's turn about the axis of the wave propagation. These cases demonstrate a whole-angle regime of gyroscopic operation. Single-crystals are anisotropic media, and, therefore, to reflect influence of the crystal's rotation, classic Christoffel-Green's tensors have been modified. Cases of acoustic axes corresponding to equal velocities for a pair of the pure-transverse (shear) waves have of an evident applied interest. For such a special direction in a crystal, different polarizations of waves are possible, and the gyroscopic effect of "polarizational precession" can be observed like for a glass. Naturally, formation of a wave pattern in a massive elastic body is much more complex due to reflections from its boundaries. Some of these complexities can be eliminated. However, a non-homogeneity has a fundamental nature for any amorphous medium due to its thermodynamically-unstable micro-structure, having fluctuations of the rapidly-frozen liquid. For single-crystalline structures, blockness (walls of dislocations) plays a similar role. Physical nature and kinematic particularities of several typical "drifts" in polarizational BAW gyros (P-BAW) have been considered briefly too. They include irregular precessions ("polarizational beats") due to: non-homogeneity of mass density and elastic moduli, dissymmetry of intrinsic losses, and an angular mismatch between propagation and acoustic axes.

  • The present work proposes an improved numerical simulator for design and modification of large area capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) processing chamber. CCP, as notoriously well-known, demands the tremendously huge computational cost for carrying out transient analyses in realistic multi-dimensional models, because electron dissociations take place in a much smaller time scale (${\Delta}t{\approx}10-8{\sim}10-10$) than time scale of those happened between neutrals (${\Delta}t{\approx}10-1{\sim}10-3$), due to the rf drive frequencies of external electric field. And also, for spatial discretization of electron flux (Je), exponential scheme such as Scharfetter-Gummel method needs to be used in order to alleviate the numerical stiffness and resolve exponential change of spatial distribution of electron temperature (Te) and electron number density (Ne) in the vicinity of electrodes. Due to such computational intractability, it is prohibited to simulate CCP deposition in a three-dimension within acceptable calculation runtimes (<24 h). Under the situation where process conditions require thickness non-uniformity below 5%, however, detailed flow features of reactive gases induced from three-dimensional geometric effects such as gas distribution through the perforated plates (showerhead) should be considered. Without considering plasma chemistry, we therefore simulated flow, temperature and species fields in three-dimensional geometry first, and then, based on that data, boundary conditions of two-dimensional plasma discharge model are set. In the particular case of SiH4-NH3-N2-He CCP discharge to produce deposition of SiNxHy thin film, a cylindrical showerhead electrode reactor was studied by numerical modeling of mass, momentum and energy transports for charged particles in an axi-symmetric geometry. By solving transport equations of electron and radicals simultaneously, we observed that the way how source gases are consumed in the non-isothermal flow field and such consequences on active species production were outlined as playing the leading parts in the processes. As an example of application of the model for the prediction of the deposited thickness uniformity in a 300 mm wafer plasma processing chamber, the results were compared with the experimentally measured deposition profiles along the radius of the wafer varying inter-electrode gap. The simulation results were in good agreement with experimental data.

  • 곤충병원세균인 Photorhabdus temperata ssp. temperata(Ptt)는 곤충의 면역반응을 억제시켜 피기생 곤충 체내에서 공생하는 기주 선충의 발육을 도모하게 된다. 또한 Ptt의 변역억제 활성은 Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt)의 병원성을 증가시킨다. 본 연구는 이러한 유용 곤충병원세균의 대량 생산을 위한 저렴한 배지를 선발하기 위해 수행되었으며, 두 연구용 배지(LB, TSB)와 저렴한 산업용 두 배지(MY, M2)를 상호 비교하였다 모든 배양액에 동일한 밀도의 Ptt를 접종하고 배양하였을 때 48 시간 이후 정지상이 나타났다. 그러나 연구용 배양액인 LB와 TSB에서 두 가지 산업용 배양액보다 정지상에서 높은 세균 밀도를 보였다. 네 가지 배지에서 증식된 Ptt 배양액은 모두 배추좀나방(Plutella xylostella) 3령충에 대한 Bt 병원성을 현격하게 제고시켰고, 이들 배지 종류에 따라 치아가 없었다. 네 가지 배양액에서 세균의 증식에 의해 생산되는 대시물질의 양과 배지별 생산되는 대사물질의 동일성을 확인하기 위해 헥산과 에틸아세테이트의 유기용매로 추출했다. 시간별 배양액의 유기용매 추출물질은 세균의 증식과 비슷하게 대사물질의 생산량에서도 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 역상 HPLC를 이용하여 네 가지 세균 배양액 각각에서 대사물질을 분리하였고, 정량적으로 네 가지 대사물질이 서로 다른 배지에서 통계적으로 차이 없이 검출되었다. 본 연구는 비교적 저렴한 두 가지 산업용 배지가 유용 대사물질의 생성에 변화 없이 Ptt 세균을 저렴하게 배양할 수 있다고 제시하고 있다.

  • The purpose of this research was to get basic information for the development of Korean native chicken industry by reviewing the current native chicken farm management and marketing situation of native chicken products(meat and eggs). The research was carried on the basis of the farm field survey covering 210 native chicken feeders out of 9 different local areas, and the results were as follows ; 1. Average raising size of native chicken flocks of sample farms was 1,787 heads and about 50% of those farms raised less than 500 heads chickens for self-sufficiency or on the side. 2. Most farmers made the decision to start on feeding native chickens in small scale with small amount of capital without sound feeding program, and their decision was mainly influenced by recommendation of mass-media( 19.5%) and neighbors (17.2%). 3. The average income per farm earned by raising the native chickens was 13,719 Won, and income per head of chicken was 8,800 Won. 4. About 40% of feeders expressed that the poor marketing management and lack of capital were the bottleneck to native chicken farm management. 5. About 70% of feeders evaluated the prospect of native chicken industry positively and so, about 60% of feeders hoped to expand the raising size in the future. 6. Most farmers directry made a bargain with marketer including middleman and enduser in selling the chicken products because there was not established special marketing system for native chicken products. 7. The sales age of native broiler was about 16~20 weeks and average body weight of broiler was 1.5~2.0 kg. And farm recieved price was not decided on the basis of each body weight or meat quality but only number of heads. 8. The average first egg-laying age of chickens was about 165 days and average annual laying rate was only about 56%. 9. In order to develop the successful Korean native chicken industry, followings are recommended ; 1) Reducing the production costs and increasing the productivity of native chickens should be carried out through technological research and development for sound feeding program of native chickens and sufficient fund supply. 2) Orderly native chicken marketing and pricing system should be established to give good vision about native chickens to farmers and to delight the consumers. 3) The measures for product differentiation including meat quality and nutritional value of native chicken products against other improved chickens should be actively taken by feeders and government.

  • 인삼 재배지에서 가장 큰 피해를 나타내고 있는 뿌리썩음병원균은 Cylindrocarpon destructans로 연작장해의 원인으로 작용하고 있다. 2011과 2012년에 걸쳐 인삼 뿌리썩음병 발병포장으로부터 뿌리를 수집하여 병징 구분 후 57종의 C. destructans를 분리하였다. 분리한 뿌리썩음병원균중에서 34균주(61%)는 병원성이 낮았으며, 21균주(37%)는 무상처 접종에서도 병반을 형성하여 강한 병원성을 나타내었다. 또한 이들 분리균들을 PDA 배지에서 15일 배양한 결과 최적의 생장온도는 $20^{\circ}C$였으며, $35^{\circ}C$에서는 병원성에 관계없이 모두 생장하지 못하였다. 병원성에 따라 균총의 색과 균사의 생장정도에 차이를 나타내었다. 강한 병원성 균주는짙은 갈색을 나타낸 반면 병원성이 약한 균주들은 베이지색 또는 옅은 갈색을 나타내었다. pH 변화에 따른 균사 생장에 미치는 효과 조사를 위해 수경 재배한 결과 pH 7.0에서 보다 pH 5.0에서 균사생장이 양호하였다. 뿌리에서의 상처는 pH 변화와 관계없이 발병도를 더욱 증가시켰다. 인위적으로 조성한 발병 토양에 1-4년생 인삼뿌리를 이식하여 재배한 결과 2년생 뿌리에서 가장 감수성이었으며, 발병률도 79.5%로 가장 높았다. 뿌리썩음병 발병정도는 토양 내 접종 병원균의 밀도에 따라 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 병원균 접종농도 $3.5{\times}10^2cfu/g$ 처리구 보다 $2.0{\times}10^3cfu/g$ 처리구에서 높았다.
