  • The objective of this study is to select fuel/air feeders for reliable operation of BOP(Balance of Plant) system for a DMFC (direct methanol fuel cell). A 42-cell 50W DMFC stack is considered for performance comparison of selected fuel pumps and air blowers. The present stack has two serpentine anode channels with depth of 1.2 mm and rib of 1 mm and one serpentine cathode channel with depth of 1.5 mm and rib of 1 mm. The pressure drop through the stack is estimated in advance by utilizing the pre-existing loss coefficients data for various flow configurations. Then the operating points of feeders are determined at the balance point of the flow impedance curves for the channels in the DMFC stack and the selected pump and blower performance curves. After estimating the operating flow rates in the anode and cathode channels, the flow measurement with the selected feeders is performed for the comparison with the estimated flow rates. The measured results show that the discrepancy between the estimation and the measurement for the cathode is about 26%, about 3% for the anode

  • We have established a pulsed electron beam generation system with an energy of 200[keV], pulse repetition rate of 200[Hz], and several tens of [${\mu}s$] pulse width. The system is characterized by a cold cathode that is simpler than the hot cathode. Target object does not need to be scanned because of large aperture electron beam of 300[$cm^2$]. Electron source is secondary electrons that are generated when the ions from the glow discharge collide on the cathode surface. In this paper, the discharge current characteristics are investigated experimentally as a function of He gas pressure in order to obtain stable glow discharge. And computer simulations are carried out as a preliminary study for the development of low energy large aperture electron beam generator. The variation of electon beam current is investigated as a function of rising time of high voltage when 20[kV] potential is applied in 20[mTorr] pressure.

  • The effect of the application of lanthanum strontrium manganite and yttria-stabilized zirconia (LSM-YSZ) nano-composite fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) as a cathode of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is studied. A gradient-structure thin-film cathode composed of 1 micron-thick LSM-YSZ deposited at an ambient pressure ($P_{amb}$) of 200 mTorr; 2 micron-thick LSM-YSZ deposited at a $P_{amb}$ of 300 mTorr; and 2 micron-thick lanthanum strontium cobaltite (LSC) current collecting layer was fabricated on an anode-supported SOFC with an ~8 micron-thick YSZ electrolyte. In comparison with a 1 micron-thick nano-structure single-phase LSM cathode fabricated by PLD, it was obviously effective to increase triple phase boundaries (TPB) over the whole thickness of the cathode layer by employing the composite and increasing the physical thickness of the cathode. Both polarization and ohmic resistances of the cell were significantly reduced and the power output of the cell was improved by a factor of 1.6.

  • Superconducting $YBa_{2}$$Cu_{3}$ $O_{7-x}$(YBCO) thin films were deposited on MgO(100) substrates using a hollow cathode discharge sputtering system. Influence of the sputtering conditions such as substrate temperature and discharge sputtering gas pressure on electrical and structural properties were investigated. It was found that YBCO thin films with zero resistance temperature higher than 85 K were obtained to the pressure 200 mToorr(Ar/O2=0.9), substrate temperature of $760^{\circ}C$, and target-substrate distance of 10 mm during film deposition. Homogeneous large area YBCO films with 2 inch diameter were also sucessfully fabricated by this method.

  • 변형된 end-Hall type의 이온 소스를 사용하여 이온 소스의 형태에 따라 달라지는 이온 빔의 변화를 측정하였다. 이온 소스 cathode의 wehnelt mask를 세 가지 종류로 제작하였으며, 생성된 이온 빔을 이용하여 Al이 sputter 방식으로 증착된 유리 기판을 etching 하였다. 실험 결과 wehnelt mask의 모양에 따라 focus, broad, strate의 형태로 이온 빔이 생성되는 것을 확인하였다. Al이 증착된 유리 기판의 제작을 위하여 Al target을 사용하여 RF power로 150 W, 2분간 sputtering을 하였고, 이온 소스와 기판사이의 거리를 1 cm씩 증가시켜가며 이온 빔을 2,500 V로 3분간 유리 기판을 etching한 후, 유리 기판이 etching된 모양을 통해 이온 빔의 형태를 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 sputtering과 이온 빔 처리가 가능한 챔버를 제작하였으며, scroll pump와 turbo molecular pump를 사용하였다. Base pressure $1.5{\times}10^{-6}Torr$에서 실험이 진행되었고, 불활성 기체 Ar을 사용하였다. Ar 기체를 주입시 pressure는 $2.6{\times}10^{-3}Torr$였다.

  • Advanced structure of metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells was devised to overcome sealing problem and mechanical instability in ceramic-supported solid oxide fuel cells. STS430 whose dimensions were 26mm diameter, 1mm thickness and 0.4mm channel width was used as metal support. Thin ceramic layer composed of anode(Ni/YSZ) and electrolyte(YSZ) was joined with STS430 metal support by using a cermet adhesive. $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}Co_{0.4}Mn_{0.6}O_{3}$ perovskite oxide was used as cathode material. It was noted that oxygen reduction reaction of cathode governed the overall cell performance from oxygen partial pressure dependance.

  • CNTs(Carbon Nano Tube) were employed as an electron source in electron-gun of CRT(Cathode-Ray Tube). The CNTs were grown on the Si substrates and the electron gun by LP-CVD(Low Pressure-Chemical Vapor Deposition). Their physical and field emission property satisfied the requirements of the electron gun of CRT. The fabricated electron gun was inserted into 19 inch-sifted CRT and its operating properly was evaluated for practical usage.

  • The Townsend to glow discharge mode transition was investigated in the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) helium plasma source which was powered by 20 kHz / $4.5 kV_{rms}$ high voltage at atmospheric pressure. The spatial profile of the electric field strength at each modes was measured by using the intensity ratio method of two helium emission lines (667.8 nm ($3^1D{\rightarrow}2^1P$) and 728.1 nm ($3^1S{\rightarrow}2^1P$)) and the Stark effect. ICCD images were analyzed with consideration for the electric field property. The Townsend discharge (TD) mode at the initial stage of breakdown has the light emission region located in the vicinity of the anode. The electric field of the light emitting region is close to the applied field in the system. Immediately, the light emitting region moves to the cathode and the discharge transits to the glow discharge (GD) mode. This mode transition can be understood with the ionization wave propagation. The electric field of the emitting region of GD near cathode is higher than that of TD near anode because of the cathode fall formation. This observation may apply to designing a DBD process system and to analysis of the process treatment results.
