High temperature oxidation behavior of thermal barrier coating (TBC) system (IN738 substrate + NiCoCrAlY or NiAl bond coat with or without Pt + yttria stabilized zirconia) prepared by air plasma spray (APS) process has been studied in order to understand the effect of Pt addition to bond coat on the stability of TBC system. Specimens were oxidized in thermal cycling and isothermal oxidation test at $1100^{\circ}C$. The Pt addition in TBC system with NiCoCrAlY bond coat showed a longer life time compared to that without addition of Pt. Pt addition to TBC system is believed to help the formation of more stable thermally grown oxide, $Al_2O_3$, at the TBC/bond coat interface, leading to a longer lifetime of TBC system.

We prepared various $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2-LiFePO_4$ mixed-cathode electrodes by changing the content of $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ and $LiFePO_4$ used, and we analyzed the electrochemical characteristics of the cathodes. We found that the reversible specific capacity of the cathodes increased and that the capacity retention ratios of the cathodes decreased during cycling as the content of $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ increased. Conversely, we found that although the reversible specific capacity of the cathodes decreased because of the material composition, the cycle property of the cathodes increased when the $LiFePO_4$ content increased. We analyzed the thermal stability of the $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2-LiFePO_4$ mixed-material cathodes by differential scanning calorimetry and found that it increased as the $LiFePO_4$ content increased.

Surface film formation on $Li(Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3})O_2$ cathodes upon oxidation of electrolyte during electrochemical cycling was investigated. Information on the important factors for film formation on the cathode can facilitate the design of additives that improve the properties of the cathode. Pyrazole is added to the electrolyte because it is readily oxidized to form a surface film on the cathode. The results of differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that the active material played a dominant role in the interfacial film formation with the electrolyte. Carbon black played a negligible role in the surface film formation.

우리는 $^{87}Rb$ 원자의 $5S_{1/2}-5P_{3/2}-4D_{3/2,\;5/2}$ 전이선을 이용하여 레이저의 세기, 편광조합, 그리고 정렬상태에 따른 이중공명광펌핑(double resonance optical pumping; DROP) 스펙트럼을 조사하였다. $5P_{3/2}-4D_{5/2}$ 전이선에서 레이저의 세기에 따른 초미세 구조간의 DROP 신호의 변화가 크게 나타났고, 그 원인은 순환전이선의 낮은 광펌핑 효율 때문이었다. 두 레이저의 편광조합을 달리 했을 때 이중공명의 전이율이 변하고, 이러한 효과가DROP스펙트럼의 변화로 나타났다. 또한 두 레이저가 같은 방향으로 진행하는 경우와 반대 방향으로 진행하는 경우를 비교했을 때, 스펙트럼의 선폭은 각각 12.2 MHz 와 6.9 MHz로 측정되었다.

Radioprotective effects of amentoflavone were investigated by examining cell viability, apoptosis, cell cycling concentrations of intracellular ROS (reactive oxygen species), and relative mitochondrial mass by flow cytometry after $^{60}Co$ irradiation. Pretreatment with amentoflavone 24 hours prior to 8 Gy $^{60}Co$ ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation significantly inhibited apoptosis, promoted the G2 phase, decreased the concentration of ROS and mitochondrial mass. These results collectively indicate that amentoflavone is an effective radioprotective agent.

Ar공정 분압에 따라 스퍼터링된 $LiCoO_2$박막 양극의 $400^{\circ}C$저온 열처리를 통한 전기화학적 및 미세구조적 특성을 연구하였다. Ar분압이 변화함에 따라 양극 박막의 미세구조 및 조성이 변화하였으며, Ar분압이 증가할수록 $LiCoO_2$ 박막의 안정성 및 전기화학적 특성이 개선되었다. 순환전류전위법 및 정전류 충방전 시험에 의해 전극반응의 가역성 및 안정성 등을 고찰하였으며, 박막의 조성, 결정성, 표면 특성 등 물리적 특성은 ICP-AES, XRD, SEM 및 AFM을 통해 분석하였다.

LiN $i_{1-y}$ $Co_{y}$ $O_2$(y=0.1, 0.3, 0.5)는 Co의 양이 증가함에 따라 a축과 c축의 크기가 감소하였는데, 이는 코발트 이온의 크기가 니켈 이온의 크기보다 작은데 기인하는 것이다. 그러나 c축과 a축의 크기의 비(c/a)가 증가하였음은 이차원적 구조가 잘 발달됨을 보여준다. 니켈에 대한 코발트의 치환량에 따른 리튬 이온의 삽입/추출 가역성은 코발트의 치환량이 증가하면서 증가하여 y=0.3인 LiN $i_{0.9}$ $Co_{0.1}$ $O_2$에서 대체로 우수하였고 그 이상으로 y값이 증가하면 가역성이 나빠졌다. 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 합성한 LiN $i_{0.9}$ $Co_{0.1}$ $O_2$가 가장 큰 초기 방전 용량 146 mAh/g을 나타내었으며, 싸이클링 성능도 비교적 우수하였다. 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 합성한 LiN $i_{0.9}$ $Co_{0.1}$ $O_2$와 LiN $i_{0.7}$ $Co_{0.3}$ $O_2$가 우수한 싸이클링 성능을 보였다.다. 싸이클링 성능을 보였다.다.보였다.다.

Different amounts of excess lithium in the range of x = 0~0.3 were added to $Li_{1+x}[Mn_{0.720}Ni_{0.175}Co_{0.105}]O_2$ cathode materials synthesized using the co-precipitation method to investigate its microstructure and electrochemical properties. Pure layered structure without impurities was confirmed in the XRD pattern analysis and increasing peak intensity of $Li_2MnO_3$ was observed along with the addition of over 0.2 mol Li. The initial discharge capacity of the stoichiometric composition was determined to be 246 mAh/g, while the discharge capacity of the addition of 0.1 mol Li was obtained to be 241 mAh/g, which was not significantly different from that of the stoichiometric composition. However, the discharge capacities decreased dramatically after the addition of 0.2 and 0.3 mol Li to 162 mAh/g and 146 mAh/g, respectively. In the rate capability test, the active $Li_{1+x}[Mn_{0.720}Ni_{0.175}Co_{0.105}]O_2$ cathode material of the stoichiometric composition showed a dramatic decrease in its discharge capacity with increasing C-rate, as evidenced by the result that the discharge capacity at 5C was 13% compared with 0.1C. On the other hand, the discharge capacity of compositions containing excess lithium was improved at higher current rates. The cycling test showed that the composition containing an excess of 0.1 mol Li had the most outstanding capacity retention.

The decrease of polarization resistance in cathode is the key point for operating at intermediate temperature SOFC (solid oxide fuel cell). In this study, the influence of Co substitution in B-site at complex perovskite on the electronic conductivity of PSCM ($Pr_{0.3}Sr_{0.7}Co_xMn_{(1-x)}$) was investigated. The PSCM series exhibits excellent MIEC (mixed ionic electronic conductor) properties. The ASR (area specific resistance) of PSCM3773 was $0.174{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2\;at\;700^{\circ}C$. The activation energy of PSCM3773 was also lower than other compositions of PSCM. The TEC(thermal expansion coefficient) was decreased by addition of Mn. The ASR values were increased gradually during the thermal cycling test of PSCM37773 due to the delamination between electrolyte and cathode materials. The delamination was caused by the difference of TEC.

The $0.3Li_2MnO_3{\cdot}0.7LiMn_{0.55}Ni_{0.30}Co_{0.15}O_2$ cathode material was prepared via a co-precipitation method. The vapor grown carbon fiber (VGCF) was used as a conductive material and its effects on electrochemical properties of the $0.3Li_2MnO_3{\cdot}0.7LiMn_{0.55}Ni_{0.30}Co_{0.15}O_2$ cathode material were investigated. From the XRD pattern, the typical complex layered structure was confirmed and a solid solution between $Li_2MnO_3$ and $LiMO_2$ (M = Ni, Co and Mn) was formed without any secondary phases. The VGCF was properly distributed between cathode materials and conductive sources by a FE-SEM. In voltage profiles, the electrode with VGCF showed higher discharge capacity than the pristine electrode. At a 5C rate, 146 mAh/g was obtained compared with 232 mAh/g at initial discharge in the electrode with VGCF. Furthermore, the impedance of the electrode with VGCF did not changed much around $9-10{\Omega}$ while the pristine electrode increased from 21.5${\Omega}$ to $46.3{\Omega}$ after the $30^{th}$ charge/discharge cycling.
