  • This paper discovers that there are some peculiar properties that can remove holography grating, which was made in chacogenide thin film by impressed voltage. The thin films were used are $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$, and we use He-Ne laser in order to form thin films. I-V curved line in a thin film before a lattice was made has the critical point, about 3.7 V. Moreover, the I-V curved line increased current intensity at over 4 V after it made thin film. In addition, while holography grating is being made, and when it has the highest diffraction efficiency, a lattice can be deleted if put more voltage into it.

  • In the devices structure of ITO/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N' bis (3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) /tris (8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum$(Alq_3)$electron-transport-layer(ETL)(2,9-Dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline(BCP))/Al, we have studied the efficiency improvement of organic light-emitting diodes depending on the thickness variation of BCP using electron transport layer. The thickness of TPD and $Alq_3$ was manufactured 40 nm, 60 nm under a base pressure of $5{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr using at thermal evaporation, respectively. The TPD and $Alq_3$ layer were evaporated to be deposition rate of $2.5{\AA}/s$. And the BCP was evaporated to be a4 a deposition of $1.0{\AA}/s$. As the experimental results, we found that the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency of the device is superior to others when thickness of BCP is 5 nm. Also, operating voltage is lowest. Compared to the ones from the devices without BCP layer, the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency were improved by a factor of four hundred ninty and five hundred, respectively. And operating voltage is reduced to about 2 V.

The thickness of TPD and $Alq_3$ was manufactured 40 nm, 60 nm, respectively under a base pressure of $5\times10^{-6}$Torr using a thermal evaporation. The TPD and $Alq_3$ layer were evaporated to be at a deposition rate of 2.0 A/s. The BCP was evaporated to be at a deposition of 1.0 A/s. When the thickness of BCP increased from 5 to 30 nm, we found that the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency is superior to the others when the thickness of BCP is 20 nm. Compared to the ones from the devices made without BCP, the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency was improved by 57 %, 70%, respectively.

  • In this paper, we propose a scheme for designing a tunable pixel layer based on a $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ (GST) alloy thin film. We show that the phase change of GST can significantly affect the reflection characteristic when the GST film is embedded into a dielectric encapsulation layer. We investigate the appropriate positions of the GST film within the dielectric layer for high diffraction efficiency, and we prove that they are antinodes of Fabry-Perot resonance inside the dielectric layer. Using the proposed scheme, we can increase the diffraction efficiency by about ten times compared to a bare GST film pixel, and 80 times for the first-to-zeroth-order diffraction power ratio. We show that the proposed scheme can be designed alternatively for a broadband or wavelength-selective type by tuning the dielectric thickness, and we discuss a multi-phase example with a double-stack structure.

  • In recent years, the geotextile tubes filled with dredged material have been used in dike and breakwater construction for a number of projects around the world, and their use in this field is growing very fast. One of the most attractive advantages of geotextile tube technology is can be use the in-situ filling materials by hydraulic pumping, it can be also established lower costs and fast construction than other technology. Geotextiles form one of the two largest groups of geosynthetics and it is commonly made by two major types of polymer material(Polypropylene, Polyester). The objective of this paper is to examine several issues associated with drainage function and feasibility of geotextile tube structure such as filtering efficiency, dewatering efficiency, and filling process with polymer materials. Based on the laboratory filtering test and in-situ tests, polypropylene goetextile is more effective for drainage function of geotextile tube technology.

  • Amorphous chalcogenide glasses have a wide variety of light-induced effects. In this study, we have investigated the diffraction efficiency of chalcogenide. As$_{40}$ Ge$_{10}$ Se$_{15}$ S$_{35}$ thin films by the various applied electric fields. The holographic grating in these thin films has been formed using a linearly polarized He-Ne laser light (633nm). The diffraction efficiency was investigated the two method of applied electric field in the perpendicular and parallel to the direction of inducing beam. We obtained that properties of diffraction efficiency in the two methods of applied electric field. The result is shown that the diffraction efficiency of parallel electric field is 285% increase, η=1.1$\times$10$^{-3}$ and the diffraction efficiency of perpendicular electric field is 80% decrease, η=9.83$\times$10$^{-5}$ . Also, we have investigated the anisotropy property on chalcogenide thin films by the electric field effects.

  • The high power of a shingled photovoltaic module can be attributed to its low cell-to-module loss. The production of high power modules in limited area requires high efficiency solar cells. Shingled photovoltaic modules can be made by divided solar cells, which can be produced by the laser scribing process. After dividing the 21% PERC cell using laser scribing, the efficiency decreased by approximately 0.35%. However, there was no change in the efficiency of the solar cell having relatively lower efficiency, because the laser scribing process induce higher heat damages in solar cells with high efficiency. To prove this phenomena, the J0 (leakage current density) of each cell was analyzed. It was found that the J0 of 21% PERC increased about 17 times between full and divided solar cell. However, the J0 of 20.2% PERC increased only about 2.5 times between full and divided solar cell.

  • To investigate the catching efficiency of a biodegradable round trap for a swimming crab (Portunus trituberculatus), four types of material (two types of biodegradable net, one type of biodegradable plus polyethylene net and one type of polyethylene net) for traps were used in the field test, and the field tests were carried out 11 times in the Boryeong fishing ground of Korea, 2012~2013. The catching efficiency of four type traps was analyzed by catch per trap, weight per trap and mean weight per individual of small and large size swimming crab. Statistical Kruskal-Wallis test was carried out to verify the significant difference for the efficiency between types of material. The catch in number of swimming crab was 9,015 and formed about 94.3% of total catch. In the results of catching efficiency of traps, there was a little difference in catch per trap, weight per trap and mean weight per individual of swimming crab in-situ data. But there was no significant difference in catching efficiency between the biodegradable traps and the PE trap (P>0.05), so it's needed to use widely a biodegradable trap for the conservation and sustainable management of swimming crab resources.

  • The conventional representative underground cavity restoration methods, which are mainly open-cut methods, require high cost and long period of time for the restoration. Therefore, various trenchless restoration methods have been proposed to improve these disadvantages. The underground cavity restoration method using the expansive material proposed in this paper is one of the trenchless methods. This method fills the underground cavity with high quality backfill soils through the small hole(s) at asphalt layer and compacts backfill soils by insertion of the expansive material within the cavity. In this study, the restoration method using expansive material was constructed in acrylic chamber. The restoration efficiency of the method was analyzed by the fill ratio and degree of relative compaction according to the location and number of bore holes. As a result of the experiment, the restoration efficiency and the optimum construction location were found to be irrelevant.
