Lithiated cobalt and nickel oxides are becoming very attractive as active cathode materials for secondary lithium ion secondary battery. $LiCoO_2$ is easily synthesized from lithium cobalt salts, but has a relatively high oxidizing potential on charge. LiNiOz is synthesized by a more complex procedure and its nonstoichiometry significantly degraded the charge-discharge characteristics. But $LiNiO_2$ has a lower charge potential which increases the system stability. Lithiated cobalt and nickel oxides are iso-structure which make the preparation of solid solutions of $LiNi_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ for O$LiCoO_2 and LiNiO_2$ electrode. The aim of the presentb paper is to study the electrochemical behaviour, as weU as the possibilities for practical application of layered Iithiated nickel oxide stabilized by $Co^{3+}$ substitution as active cathode materials in lithium ion secondary battery.

In this study, we investigated $Li_2ZrO_3$ membrane as a candidate material for high-temperature $CO_2$ separation and evaluated mechanical property. $Li_2ZrO_3$ powder was synthesized by solid state reaction of $Li_2CO_3\;and\;ZrO_2$. Then we fabricated $Li_2ZrO_3$ tape using tape casting method. Dense $Li_2ZrO_3$ membrane prepared by sintering at $1600^{\circ}C$ for 2 h after pressing $Li_2ZrO_3$ tape using lamination machine. Mechanical properties before and after $CO_2$ absorption of fabricated $Li_2ZrO_3$ membrane such as Hertzian indentation, Victors hardness and 3-point bending testing were evaluated.

We prepared $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$, $CoCO_3$.$xH_2O$ and $Ni(OH)_2$(mole ratio respectively) and heating at $850^{\circ}C$ for 5n. In the result of X-ray diffraction analysis, along fluctuation of the function of x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$(003) peak and (104) peak indensities and ratio were varied. We awared through XRD that from 0 to 0.5 at x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is well formed for hexagonal structure at one step heat treatment($850^{\circ}C$), but if Ni involve at $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ hexagonal structure is not well formed. In the result of charge/discharge tests charge/discharge capacity and effiency is different about various cathode. Therefore, the appropriate charge/discharge method must be selected for good characteristics.

The electrochemical characterization was conducted by the addition of chemically synthesized polyaniline on LiCoO$_2$electrode. From the results of XRD and SEM, the phase transition and microstructure were not found. Initial electrochemical characteristics of LiCoO$_2$electrode for lithium secondary battery were evaluated through the charge/discharge within the range of 4.3 V to 3.0 V versus Li/Li$^{+}$. Discharge capacity of LiCoO$_2$electrode without addition of Polyaniline were 160.21 mAh/g. But after addition of polyaniline, lower discharge capacities 25.7 mAh/g was found.d.

출발 물질로서 L $i_2$C $O_3$, NiC $O_3$, CoC $O_3$를 사용하고 조성과 합성 온도를 변화시켜, 고온 고상법에 의하여 LiN $i_{1-y}$ $Co_{y}$ $O_2$(y=0.1, 0.3, 0.5)를 합성하였다. 합성과 시료들의 결정구조, 미세구조 그리고 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 80$0^{\circ}C$와 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 제조한 L $i_{x}$N $i_{1-y}$ $Co_{y}$ $O_2$는, 삼방정계(space group: R3m)의 $\alpha$-NaFe $O_2$구조로 결정화되어 있는 층상 구조를 형성하였다. 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.

활성탄소를 양쪽 전극에 사용하는 전기이중층 커패시터는 고출력 특성과 반영구적인 cycle 수명인 장점을 가지고 있는 반면, 단위 중랑 또는 부피 당 용량이 작아 메모리 백업용 보조전원으로서의 활용에 그치고 있다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 최근에는 앙쪽의 전극에 충방전 메카니즘을 달리하는 비대칭 전극 설계기술을 기반으로 하는 하이브리드 커패시터가 개발되었고, 에너지밀도로서는 유기계 전해액에서 약 15-20 Wh/kg를 가지는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구메서는 양극의 활성탄소에 비용량이 상대적으로 큰 LiCo02 분말을 혼합한 하이브리드 전극의 제조 및 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 이때 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 혼합 종량비의 영향에 의한 전극 부피 당 용량(mAh/cc)의 변화와 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 입자 크기에 의한 하이브리드 전극의 출력 특성을 조사하였다. $LiCoO_2$ 분말은 불밀을 이용하여 입자크기를 조절하였고, 각각의 입자크기를 가지는 LiCoO2 분말을 활성탄소와 함께 혼합하여 혼합 활물질 : Carbon black : PTFE의 중량비가 90 : 5 : 5가 되도록 sheet 전극을 제조하였다. 제조한 전극을 양극에, Li foil을 음극에, 전해액을 LiPF6 in EC DMC를 사용하여 코인셀을 제조하고 전기화학적 특성은 MACCOR 충방전기를, AC 저항은 AC impedance를 각각 사용하여 평가하였다. 활성탄소에 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 첨가 중량비가 증가할수록 전극 부피 당 용량은 증가하였으나, 원료 상태의 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 첨가에서는 코인셀의 전극 저항은 첨가 중량에 따라 단순 증가하였다. 그러나 미세 $LiCoO_2$ 분말을 첨가할 경우, 20%의 첨가에서 전극 저항은 활성탄소 만을 사용한 전극과 동등한 전극저항을 나타내고 충방전 cycle 특성도 개선되는 것을 확인하였다.

As cathode materials of LiMn2O4-based lithium-ion secondary batteries, Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 (M=Ni and Co, $\delta$=0, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2) materials which Co and Ni are substituted for Mn, were syntehsized by the solid state reaction at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. No second phases were formed in Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 system with substitution of Co. However, substitution of Ni caued to form a second phase of NiO when its composition exceeded over 0.2 of $\delta$ in Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4. As the results of charging-discharging test, the maximum capacity of Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 appeared in $\delta$=0.1 for both Co and Ni. Also, Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 electrode showed higher capacity and better cycle performance than LiMn2O4.

$LiCoO_2$ cathode powders with round particle shaped and nano grain sized of 70-300nm were synthesized by a mechanochemical method. The surface of Li-Co precursor prepared by freeze drying method was modified by $K_2SO_4$ coating and ball milling was used for the coating process. The precursor was crystallized to high temperature form of $LiCoO_2$ at $800^{\circ}C$ and the grain growth was inhibited by the $K_2SO_4$ coating effect. The $K_2SO_4$ coating was not decomposed at $800^{\circ}C$ and prevented the contact in the Li-Co precursor particles. The nano-sized $LiCoO_2$ powder had tetragonal phase and it affected the Li diffusion through the surface of particles. It means that the anode materials for hight performance battery should be satisfied not only small particle size but phase contol on the surface of particles. In this study, the powder characteristics and rate capabilities were compared with a commercial powder and the nano-sized $LiCoO_2$ powder fabricated by the mechanochemical method. And the crucial factor which affects on battery performance was also examined.
