Short channel n-MOSFET의 드레인-소오스 사이의 breakdown은 단순한 접합 breakdown이 아닌 avalanche-induced breakdown으로 p-MOSFET, long channel n-MOSFET의 breakdown 전압보다 훨씬 작은 값을 갖는다. Short channel n-MOSFET의 breakdown의 특징은 current-controlled 부저항 특성(snapback)이 나타나고, 게이트 전압에 따라 breakdown 전압보다 작은 sustainning 전압이 존재한다. 이와 같은 sustainning 전압은 short channel n-MOSFET의 안정한 동작에 또 하나의 제한 요소가 될 수 있다. 따라서 공정 및 회로 시뮬레이션을 위해, short channel n-MOSFET의 avalanche breakdown 현상에 대한 정확한 분석이 요구된다. Short channel n -MOSFET의 avalanche breakdown 현상을 분석하기 위해서Parasitic bipolar transistor를 도입한 분석적 모델을 이용하였다.

With the intention of investigating the breakdown properties of oil-immersed transformer oils in temperature range of 20∼100[$^{\circ}C$], we are made researches AC breakdown in the gap of 500∼2,500[$\mu\textrm{m}$]. The classification for the physical properties of oil for oil-immersed transformer by FTH and $^1$H-NMR experiments was confirmed to type of mineral oils. As the dependance of breakdown properties due to electrode gap length variation, breakdown voltage was found increasing according to the increase of gap, while dielectric strength was decreasing. As a result the characteristics for AC breakdown, It goes to prove that the breakdown voltage was increased to 90[$^{\circ}C$] but decreased over 90[$^{\circ}C$] in the temperature range. Also, breakdown voltage was found increasing in the increase of gap and the rising of temperature according to Weibull distribution.

The internal breakdown of Fuji apple during CA storage classified as watercore breakdown, low temperature breakdown and CO2 injury. This study was undertaken to investigate the watercore breakdown injury factors of Korean Fuji apple during CA storage. The development of internal breakdown was more increased with the larger size, the later harvest time and the hither CO2 gas level. But in internal breakdown fruit of the titratable acidity and soluble solid decreased significantly, the pH of fruit juice and the production of carbon dioxide was greatly increased. The best gas levels of CA storage was 2% oxygen and 3% carbon dioxide. Thus, the predictable parameters of internal breakdown of fruit were increase in pH on decrease titratable acidity within 2 months of CA storage, increase carbon dioxide. So, it was found that the best CA sotrage for internal breakdown control of fruit during CA storage was delayed CA storage methods after low temperature storage immediate harvest of apple and than took a step. The delayed CA storage after low temperature storage for 2 months was more effective in the prevention of development of internal breakdown than immediate CA storage after harvest.

This paper presents a breakdown voltage and a process of breakdown progress in mineral oil under an quasi-uniform field with decomposition products which occur after the oil discharge. The breakdown voltage in the oil revealed the characteristics of dispersion regardless of an electrode gap. The cumulative probability distribution was used to analyze the dispersion of the breakdown voltage. In addition, the process of breakdown progress in the oil can be reasonably described by the electron breakdown theory based on both electrons emitted from the cathode and ions by field-aided dissociation of the oil. The proposed breakdown process will be used for the basic data to explain the behavior pattern of the decomposition product to cause the dispersion of the breakdown voltage.

Power semiconductor devices required the low on-resistance and high breakdown voltage. Wide band-gap materials opened a new technology of the power devices which promised a thin drift layer at an identical breakdown voltage. The diamond had the wide band-gap of 5.5 eV which induced the low power loss, high breakdown capability, low intrinsic carrier generation, and high operation temperature. We investigated the p-type pseudo-vertical diamond Schottky barrier diodes using a numerical simulation. The impact ionization rate was material to calculating the breakdown voltage. We revised the impact ionization rate of the diamond for adjusting the parallel-plane breakdown field at 10 MV/cm. Effects of the field plate on the breakdown voltage was also analyzed. A conventional diamond Schottky barrier diode without field plate exhibited the high forward current of 0.52 A/mm and low on-resistance of $1.71{\Omega}-mm$ at the forward voltage of 2 V. The simulated breakdown field of the conventional device was 13.3 MV/cm. The breakdown voltage of the conventional device and proposed devices with the $SiO_2$ passivation layer, anode field plate (AFP), and cathode field plate (CFP) was 680, 810, 810, and 1020 V, respectively. The AFP cannot alleviate the concentration of the electric field at the cathode edge. The CFP increased the breakdown voltage with evidences of the electric field and potential. However, we should consider the dielectric breakdown because the ideal breakdown field of the diamond is higher than that of the $SiO_2$, which is widely used as the passivation layer. The real breakdown voltage of the device with CFP decreased from 1020 to 565 V due to the dielectric breakdown.

In this paper, in order to analyze high electrical insulation and cooling performance using mineral oil, the liquid insulating oil was changed in electrode shape and distance between electrodes to compare and analyze electrical characteristics according to equal electric field, quasi-equivalent electric field, and unequal electric field. As a result, the breakdown voltages were 36,875 V and 36,875 V in the form of sphere-sphere and plate-plate electrodes with equal electric fields. The breakdown voltage was 31,475 V in the sphere-plate electrode type, which is a quasi-equilibrium field, and the breakdown voltage was 28,592 V, 27,050 V, and 22,750 V in the needle-needle, sphere-needle, and needle-plate electrode types, which are unequal fields. Through this, it is possible to know the difference in breakdown voltage according to the type of electric field. The more equal the field, the higher the breakdown voltage, and the more unequal field, the lower the breakdown voltage. The difference in insulation breakdown voltage could be seen depending on the type of electric field, the insulation breakdown voltage was higher for the more equal electric field, and the insulation breakdown voltage was lower for the more unequal electric field. Also, it was confirmed that the closer the distance between the electrodes, the higher the insulation breakdown voltage, the higher the insulation breakdown current, and the insulation breakdown voltage and the insulation breakdown current were proportional.

In order to fabricate a high breakdown SiC-SBD (Schottky barrier diode), we investigate an effect on metal guard ring (MGR) in breakdown characteristics of the SiC-SBD. The breakdown characteristics of MGR-type SiC-SBD is significantly dependent on both the guard ring metal and the alloying time of guard ring metal. The breakdown characteristics of MGR-type SiC-SBDs are essentially improved as the alloying time of guard ring metal is increased. The SiC-SBD without MGR shows less than 200 V breakdown voltage, while the SiC-SBD with Al MGR shows approximately 700 V breakdown voltage. The improvement in breakdown characteristics is attributed to the field edge termination effect by the MGR, which is similar to an implanted guard ring-type SiC-SBD. There are two breakdown origins in the MGR-type SiC-SBD. One is due to a crystal defects, such as micropipes and stacking faults, in the Epi-layers and the SiC substrate, and occurs at a lower electric field. The other is due to the destruction of guard ring metal, which occurs at a higher electric field. The demolition of guard ring metal is due to the electric field concentration at an edge of Schottky contact metal.

In order to determine what influences the interfacial breakdown in EPDM/XLPE laminates, We made the breakdown test ceil and this was pressure controllable breakdown test cell. We make the needle electrode (tip radius: about 10 micrometer) using electrochemical method. We studied the interfacial silicone oil was higher than that with silicone grease. As a function of heat treatment time in a vacuum, interfacial breakdown strength increased much in XLPE/EPDM laminates pasted with silicone grease but increased a little in that with silicone oil.
