Judul: Studi peramalan ekspor furniture Indonesia
Abstrak: The world demand for wood working product that increases continually and wood processing technology that is getling more advanced are a good condition promote really efficient wood utiliition. Currently, one of wood industries substansial that becomes export back bone contributing foreign exchange is furniture. Government predicted that the gowth of furniture product export and handycraft in 2007 were 10-15%. Opportunity to increase the export is still high, but attention to design, quality and supply consistency need to be talen in to account. Therefore, based on information mentioned forecasting study of furniture export from Indonesia needs to be done to produce a model that can be used to estimate fimiture export dynamics. Purposes of this study are (1) to forecast or estimate dynamics of furniture export from Indonesia based on the model produced, (2) to investigate the factors influencing furniture export.

Judul: Daya Saing dan Faktor-Faktor yang Memengaruhi Ekspor Furnitur Kayu Indonesia ke Negara Tujuan Utama
Abstrak: Komoditas furnitur kayu adalah salah satu komoditas yang potensial untuk dikembangkan di Indonesia. Penelitian ini ditujukan untuk menganalisis daya saing furnitur kayu Indonesia dengan kode HS 940360 ke negara tujuan utama yang terdiri dari sembilan negara tujuan dalam periode tahun 2012 hingga 2019. RCA, EPD, dan Model X serta regresi data panel digunakan sebagai metode analisis pada penelitian ini. Berdasarkan penelitian, diperoleh hasil bahwa furnitur kayu Indonesia memiliki daya saing komparatif yang kuat di seluruh negara tujuan ekspor. Hasil EPD menggambarkan posisi furnitur kayu Indonesia di sembilan negara tujuan utama yakni, rising star, falling star, dan retreat. Hasil estimasi regresi data panel menunjukkan bahwa variabel GDP negara tujuan, GDP Indonesia, harga ekspor, nilai tukar riil, dan nilai RCA berpengaruh signfikan terhadap ekspor furnitur kayu Indonesia ke sembilan negara tujuan. Sementara, variabel pertumbuhan populasi tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap ekspor furnitur kayu Indonesia di sembilan negara tujuan., The Indonesian wooden furniture commodity is a potential commodity to be developed. This research study is conducted to analyze the competitiveness of Indonesian wooden furniture with HS code 940360 in nine main destination countries from period of 2012 to 2019. RCA, EPD, X Model and panel data regression are used as the analytical methods. The results showed that Indonesian wooden furniture has strong comparative competitiveness in nine export destination countries. The EPD results show that Indonesia’s position in nine destination countries is varied, namely rising star, falling star and retreat. The panel data regression’s results indicate that the variables of destination country’s GDP, Indonesian GDP, export prices, real exchange rates, and RCA values affect the export of Indonesian wood furniture to the nine main export destination countries significantly. Meanwhile, the population growth variable has no significant effect on the export of Indonesian wooden furniture to the nine destination countries.

Judul: Hybrid solar cells of ZnO nanoparticles/chlorophyll was modified metal ions (Zn2+ and Cu2+ )
Abstrak: Zinc Oxide (ZnO) is a n-type semiconductor with a wide the energy band (Band Gap) is 3.37 eV at room temperature and 3.34 eV at low temperature with a large exiton binding energy is 60 meV. ZnO has been synthesized by hydrothermal method, resulting in a decrease in particle size over the duration of the hydrothermal changes. Crystallographic structure of ZnO were characterized using XRD, has shown the characteristic pattern of a hexagonal wurtzite structure, the crystallite size increases to changes in particle size. Changes in particle size has also led to a change in the absorption peak of ZnO as has been demonstrated posted under test using the optical properties of UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Changes of this uptake has also led to changes in the energy band gap, which increases its band gap energy of the particle size. In electronic applications, especially in solar cells. Chlorophyll is considered less effective, because of their very nature are easily degraded as a result of several reactions which are acid, lighting and temperature. The results of the stability test using a halogen lamp 34 W/m2 for 5 hours, that the substitution of chlorophyll with metal ions Zn2+ and Cu2+ has been shown to form more stable than natural chlorophyll. The characterization of the optical properties, the combination of ZnO / chlorophyll in the form of hybrid films has led to a shift in the absorption region of ZnO becomes more widely from the UV to Visible. ZnO/chlorophyll has absorption range of 350-515 nm, ZnO / Zn-feofitin 332-401 nm and 332-632 nm for Cu-feofitin. The combination of ZnO/chlorophyll and CuSCN as a solid electrolite in hybrid solar cell, a modified chlorophyll with metal ions Zn2+ and Cu2+ has been shown to form a more stable I-V curve. It is characterized by its fill factor value greater than natural chlorophyll. Nevertheless, solar cells with natural chlorophyll has been able to produce higher efficiency values of chlorophyll were substituted.
