$Mn_{1+X}Co_{2-X}O_4$ solid solutions with various Mn/Co ratios were synthesized by a combustion method, and used as cathode catalysts for lithium/air secondary battery. Their electrochemical and physicochemical properties were investigated. The morphology was examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the crystallinity was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. For the measurement of electrochemical properties, charge and discharge measurements were carried out at a constant current density of $0.2mA/cm^2$, monitoring the voltage change. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analyses were also employed to examine the change in charge transfer resistance during charge-discharge process. $Mn_{1+X}Co_{2-X}O_4$ solid solutions showed enhanced cycleability as a cathode of Li/air secondary battery, and the performance was found to be strongly dependent on Mn/Co ratio. Among synthesized catalysts, $Mn_{1.5}Co_{1.5}O_4$ exhibited the best performance and cycleability, due to high charge transfer rate.

Lithiated transition metal oxides such as LiMn2O4, Lil-xMnO$_2$, LiNiO$_2$, LiCoO$_2$, and their solid solution phases are used as cathode materials for lithium rechargeable batteries. We prepared the cathode materials using a novel eutectic self-mixing method without any artificial mixing procedures. This method provides an extraordinarily simple way to make the cathode materials, and it is possible to prepare at very low temperature such as 25$0^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the cathode materials produced have discharge capacities that are much better than cathode materials prepared by previously reported synthetic methods. The spontaneous and homogeneous mixing is verified by $^{7}$ Li magic-angle-spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy.

In these recent years, low cost and stable battery electrode materials have been studied for HV/HEV application. Spinel cathode material $LiMn_2O_4$ is widely studied as a promising cathode material of lithium ion secondary batteries because of it is low cost, easily to be prepared and capable to be operated in high voltage range. In this study, $LiMn_2O_4$ was undergoing surface modification with spinel lithium titanium oxide by sol-gel method in order to enhance its capacity retention. Properties of both unmodified and surface-modified $LiMn_2O_4$ were characterized by XRD, SEM, particle size analyzer while their cycling performance was tested with charge and discharge tester.

In this paper, in order to develop the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PMN-PZT ceramcis using $Li_2CO_3$ and $Bi_2O_3$ as sintering aids were manufactured, and their microstructural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. The sintering aids were proved to lower the sintering temperature of piezoelectric ceramics due to the effect of $LiBiO_2$ liquid phase. At 0.1wt% $Li_2CO_3$ added specimen sintered at $970[^{\circ}C]$, electromechanical coupling factor(Kp), mechanical quality factor(Qm) and dielectric constant showed the optimum values of 0.50, 2,413 and 1,245, respectively, for multilayer piezoelectric transformer application.

층상구조 삼성분계 $LiNi_{1-x-y}Co_xMn_yO_2$ 양극활물질을 4.3 V 이상 고전압으로 충전시키면 용량 증가를 기대할 수 있으나 기존 전해액의 산화안정성이 낮아 고전압 성능 구현에 제한이 있다. 본 연구에서는 설폰계 전해액 첨가제인 dimethyl sulfone (DMS), diethyl sulfone (DES), ethyl methyl sulfone (EMS)을 사용하여 $LiNi_{0.5}Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.3}O_2$ 양극의 고전압 특성을 향상시키고자 한다. 본 논문은 다양한 선형 sulfone계 첨가제가 포함된 전해액에서 3.0-4.6 V 전압범위에서 양극의 충방전 특성과 양극-전해액간 계면거동과 표면층 분석에 대한 내용으로 이루어져 있다. 특히 Dimethyl sulfone (DMS) 첨가제 사용시, 50 사이클 중 $198-173mAhg^{-1}$의 방전 용량과 87%의 용량유지율을 보여 기존 전해액 대비 상당히 향상된 충방전 안정성을 보였다. 표면조성 분광분석 결과, DMS 첨가제 사용시 양극에 안정한 표면보호층이 형성되고 금속 용출이 억제되어 고전압 충방전 특성이 향상되었음 알 수 있었다.

기판의 변화가 박막전극의 전기화학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 박막 $LiCoO_2$ 양극을 alumina, chemically etched-Si그리고 flat-Si기판 위에 증착하였다. Alumina기판의 경우 산소 분위기, $800^{\circ}C$ 30분간 열처리 후 내부에 균열이 존재하는 매우 큰 결정이 형성되었으나 flat-Si 기판의 경우에는 미세하며 균일한 결정이 관찰되었다. Flat-Si 기판 위에 증착된 박막은 alumina또는 식각된 Si 기판의 경우에 비하여 peak potential증감 및 고 전류밀도 방출 능면에서 매우 우수한 특성을 나타내었으며 이는 열처리 후 형성된 결정립의 크기, 표면 형상 및 전류 집전체의 전기저항 차이에 기인한 것으로 생각되었다.

$Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}(OH)_2$ powders have been synthesized in a continuously stirred tank reactor via a co-precipitation reaction between aqueous metal sulfates and NaOH using $NH_4OH$ as a chelating agent. The co-precipitation temperature is varied in the range of $30-80^{\circ}C$. Calcination of the prepared precursors with $Li_2CO_3$ for 8 h at $1000^{\circ}C$ in air results in Li $Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ powders. Two kinds of obtained powders have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, particle size analyzer, and tap density measurements. The co-precipitation temperature does not differentiate the XRD patterns of precursors as well as their final powders. Precursor powders are spherical and dense, consisting of numerous acicular or flaky primary particles. The precursors obtained at 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ possess bigger primary particles having more irregular shapes than those at lower temperatures. This is related to the lower tap density measured for the former. The final powders show a similar tendency in terms of primary particle shape and tap density. Electrochemical characterization shows that the initial charge/discharge capacities and cycle life of final powders from the precursors obtained at 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ are inferior to those at $50^{\circ}C$. It is concluded that the optimum co-precipitation temperature is around $50^{\circ}C$.

Micro-pulling down(${\mu}-PD$)법을 이용하여 직경 2mm, 길이 $15{\sim}25\;mm$의 Zn와 Yb가 첨가된 near-stoichiometric 조성의 $LiNbO_3$ 단결정을 성장하였다. 일정 직경의 매끄럽고 결함이 없는 양질의 단결정임을 확인하였고, 결정 내 첨가된 Zn와 Yb의 조성이 고루 분포되었음을 알 수 있었다. Raman spectra를 통해 나타난 모든 peak은 $LiNbO_3$ power의 peak과 일치함을 알 수 있었고, 이를 통해 Hexagonal 구조의 $LiNbO_3$가 성장되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. Zn의 첨가량 증가에 따른 IR 영역의 투과도 비교를 통해 광손상을 억제에 효과가 있는 Zn 첨가의 역치량이 1 mol%임을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, tunable dielectric materials are important for resonator, variable capacitor, phased array antenna and other devices application. In this paper, Dielectric constant increased and tuning range increased with the increased of $BaSrTiO_3/Li_{2}CO_{3}$ content, which probably can be explained by the substitution of Ba3+, Li1+ on BaTiO3 lattice. The tunability and dielectric loss of the $BaSrTiO_2/Li_{2}CO_{3}$ thick film, sintered at $1150^{\circ}C$, were about 43 % and 0.234 at 10$\sim$15 MHz, respectively. In case of BaSrTi/MgO, Dielectric constant decreased and tenability increased with the added of $BaSrTiO_3/MgO$. The ferroelectrics properties were distinct when adding Li to BST ceramic thick film, and paraelectrics pattern was distinct when adding Mg.

In this study, we fabricate 3 wt% $Li_2CO_3$ doped $(Ba,Sr)TiO_3$ thick films on the Ag/Pd bottom electrode printed $Al_2O_3$ substrates for the LTCCs (low temperature co-fired ceramics) applications. From the X-ray diffraction analysis, 3 wt% $Li_2CO_3$ doped BST thick films on the Ag/Pd printed $Al_2O_3$ substrates, which sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, showed perovskite structure without any pyro phase. The dielectric properties of 3 wt% $Li_2CO_3$ doped BST thick films are measured from 1 kHz to 1 MHz. To investigate the electrical properties of 3 wt% $Li_2CO_3$ doped BST thick films, we employ the impedance spectroscopy. The complex impedance of 3 wt% $Li_2CO_3$ doped BST thick films are measured from 20 Hz to 1 MHz at the various temperatures.
