All-solid-state batteries are one of the promising candidates for next-generation batteries and are drawing attention as a key component that will lead the future electric vehicle industry. This study analyzes 10,280 comments on Reddit, which is a global social media, in order to identify policy issues and public interest related to all-solid-state batteries from 2016 to 2021. Text mining such as frequency analysis, association rule analysis, and topic modeling, and sentiment analysis are applied to the collected global data to grasp global trends, compare them with the South Korean government's all-solid-state battery development strategy, and suggest policy directions for its national research and development. As a result, the overall sentiment toward all-solid-state battery issues was positive with 50.5% positive and 39.5% negative comments. In addition, as a result of analyzing detailed emotions, it was found that the public had trust and expectation for all-solid-state batteries. However, feelings of concern about unresolved problems coexisted. This study has an academic and practical contribution in that it presented a text mining analysis method for deriving key issues related to all-solid-state batteries, and a more comprehensive trend analysis by employing both a top-down approach based on government policy analysis and a bottom-up approach that analyzes public perception.

휴대용 기기의 사용이 증가하면서 배터리의 고용량화와 소형화가 요구되고 있다. 특히 내시경 캡슐과 같은 의료용 센서 기기에서는 소형화가 매우 중요하며 인체에 해로운 액체전해질이 들어가지 않는 것이 바람직하다. 최근 무선센서, RFID 태그, 스마트 카드 등을 위하여 고체전해질을 사용하는 박막 마이크로 배터리가 개발되고 있으나, 에너지 저장용량이 작아 응용분야가 제한적이다. Si wafer 위에 형성된 고단차의 3차원 구조 위에 박막 배터리를 형성한다면 표면적 증가에 의해 에너지 저장용량 역시 크게 증가할 것이며, Si 기반의 반도체, 디스플레이, 태양전지 등과 쉽게 집적이 가능할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 펄스 레이저 증착법(Pulsed Laser Deposition)으로 리튬 배터리의 cathode 물질인 $LiCoO_2$를 박막으로 제조하고 그 특성을 연구하였다. 펄스 레이저 증착법은 저온 증착이 가능하고 타겟 물질과 같은 조성의 박막을 증착하는 것이 용이한 장점이 있다. Pt, TiN 등의 기판 위에 $LiCoO_2$ 박막을 증착하고 증착 온도와 산소($O_2$) 분압이 박막의 조성, 미세구조, 결정성, 그리고 전하저장용량에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

휴대용 기기의 사용이 증가하면서 전지의 고용량화와 소형화가 요구되고 있다. 특히 의료용 센서 기기에서는 소형화가 매우 중요하며 인체에 해로운 물질로 구성되지 않는 것이 바람직하다. 최근 고체전해질을 사용하는 마이크로 배터리가 개발되고 있으나, 에너지 저장용량이 작아 응용분야가 제한적이다. Silicon wafer 위에 형성된 고단차의 3차원 박막 배터리를 형성한다면 표면적 증가에 의해 에너지 저장용량 역시 크게 증가할 것이다. 따라서 고단차의 3차원 구조위에 confomal한 박막을 형성하기 위해서는 기존 물리증착방법과는 달리 새로운 step coverage가 우수한 박막증착법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 atomic layer deposition(ALD)으로 박막 배터리의 cathode 물질인 $LiCoO_2$를 증착하기 위한 기초연구로서 cobalt oxide 박막의 ALD 공정을 연구하였다. Cobalt +2가 전구체와 $O_3$를 교대로 공급하여 박막을 증착하고 그 박막의 물리적, 화학적, 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 이를 통해 exposure와 기판온도가 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 또한 pattern wafer위에 박막을 증착하여 step coverage를 조사하였다.

In this study, candidate technologies for lithium recovery from the process waste liquid generated in the waste battery recycling process were reviewed, and technologies applicable to the process from the commercialization point of view were reviewed from a qualitative point of view. The evaporation method is difficult to apply because it requires a large-scale land and shows a low recovery rate due to the loss of Li during the concentration process. In the case of precipitation, a commercially available technology shows a high recovery rate due to the high Li/Na selectivity of phosphoric acid, but there are disadvantages in that the process is complicated due to the use of expensive phosphoric acid, requiring a recovery step, and continuous operation is impossible because solids are handled in the Li concentration process. In the case of solvent extraction, if we find an inexpensive extractant with high Li/Na selectivity, continuous operation is possible with the method used in extraction of other metals in the previous step, and when Li is concentrated, continuous operation is possible because it is in a liquid state. If it shows a similar recovery rate compared to precipitation technology, commercialization will be the most likely.
