Enhanced ICRF (Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequency) ion heating of H-mode D(H) plasma will be tried in 2011 KSTAR experimental campaign. Minority heating is a main ion heating scheme in the ICRF. Its efficiency increases as the hydrogen minority ratio increases in deuterium plasmas. And it should be sustained at a lower level than the critical minority ratio. Consequently, it is important to elevate the critical ratio to maximize ion heating and it is possible by increasing the ion temperature or parallel wave number (k${\parallel}$) of the antenna. Increasing the k${\parallel}$ is not a good approach since the coupling efficiency decreases exponentially with regard to k${\parallel}$ as well. So the remaining method is to increase ion temperature by using NB (Neutral Beam). Ion heating fraction of NB increases as the electron temperature increases. Therefore, we will try to heat electron by using ECH together with NB ion heating before ICRF power injection. The ICRF heating efficiency will be compared with respect to several NB+ECH+ICRF heating combinations through several diagnostics such as XICS (Xray Imaging Crystal Spectroscopy), CES (Charge Exchange Spectroscopy) and neutron measurement. The theoretical background and the experimental results will be presented in more detail in the conference.

For the efficient current drive, the structure of ICRF wave propagation and absorption in a tokamak plasma should be first investigated. In this paper, two dimensional study on FWCD as well as ICRF minority ion heating for the KSTAR [Korea Superconducting Tok Amak Research] [1] plasma was performed using the full wave code of TORIC [2]. The ICRF wave propagation and absorption structures, the competitive power absorption between electrons and ions and the coupling of antenna/plasma are investigated.

It is important for an ICRF full wave code to simulate the SOL (Scrape Off Layer) plasma as well as the core inside of the LCFS (Last Closed Flux Surface) for the precise prediction of the coupling between the antenna and the core plasma in tokamaks. To this end, a two dimensional full wave code based on a Fourier spectral algorithm has been developed. The spectral algorithm and procedures are described and the simulation results for the minority heating in KSTAR are reported including electric field, power absorption and power flux.

Halogen lamp was applied to fabricate the selective emitter crystalline silicon solar cell. In selective emitter structure, the recombination of minority carriers is reduced with heavily doped emitter under metal grid, consequently improving the conversion efficiency. Laser selective emitter process which is recently used the most generally induces the damage on the silicon surface. However the lamp has enough heat to form heavily doped emitter layer by diffusing phosphorus from PSG without surface damage. In this work, we have studied to find the design and the suitable condition for halogen lamp such as power, time, temperature and figured out the possibility to fabricate the selective emitter silicon solar cell by lamp heating. The sheet resistance with $100{\Omega}/{\Box}$ was lower to $50{\Omega}/{\Box}$ after halogen lamp treatment. Heat transfer to lightly doped emitter region was blocked by using the shadow mask.

Silicon electrode and ring in a plasma etcher those are in contact with harsh plasma suffer from periodic heating and cooling during their lifetime. This causes the silicon components failure due to thermal stress remaining the persistent slip bands (PSBs) on their surfaces. The factors that determine the lifetime of silicon electrode and ring were discussed with respect to silicon ingot. The impurity level and the average defect concentration measured with glow discharge mass spectrometer (GDMS) and microwave photo-conductance decay (${\mu}$-PCD) were compared with the grade of silicon ingots those are divided to slip-free and slip-allowed ingot. Some silp-allowed samples showed planar defects along <110> direction on {001} surface. The role of these defects was suggested from the viewpoint of the lifetime of silicon components.

The purpose of this study is to analyze characteristics of literature on the residential environments of Korean-Chinese people residing in China. The number of such studies on residential environment is a total of 123, of which 86 (69.9%) are Korean studies and 37 (30.1%) are Chinese studies. Research has been conducted in China since the 1980s, but from 1990s onward, research was conducted in Korea following the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two nations. More studies related to history, society, and tradition have been conducted in China than Korea because China is a multiracial nation and Korean-Chinese people comprise an ethnic minority. In terms of residential environment, the majority of studies are related to architecture and space and are typically focused on villages and housing. Studies on traditional housing of the Korean-Chinese focus on general characteristics of traditional housing, targeting China's three northeast provinces and the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture of China. Studies on modern housing of the Korean-Chinese have mainly been conducted in Yanji City in China. The reason for this is that 41% of Yanji City's population is Korean-Chinese, a distinct difference can be seen between Yanji City and other areas regarding changes of modern housing, and ondol (the traditional Korean floor heating system) is commonly found in modern housing there.
