본 연구에서는 trimethylolpropane triacrylate(TMPTA)를 사용한 겔폴리머전해질의 전기화학적 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. 겔고분자전해질의 상온 이온전도도는 약 $5.0{\times}10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}$이었으며, 온도가 높아짐에 따라 이온전도도는 증가하였다. TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질은 4.5V(vs. $Li/Li^+$)까지의 전위영역에서 우수한 전기화학적 안정성을 나타내었으며, TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질을 적용한 리튬이온폴리머전지의 고율 및 저온 방전특성은 양호하였다. 또한 사이클수명도 200 사이클이 진행된 후에도 초기용량의 약 94%라는 높은 용량유지율을 나타내었다.

본 연구에서는 백금 나노입자의 크기, 형상, 분포도에 따른 전기 화학적 효율을 평가하기 위해 계면활성제 농도를 달리하여 백금 나노입자를 합성하였다. 계면활성제로는 CTAB(cetyltrimethylammonium bromide)이 사용되었으며, 0.5 mM의 $H_2PtCl_6$의 백금 염을 환원시키기 위하여 유체 플라즈마 공정을 이용하였다. 공정 시간은 UV-vis 스펙트럼 결과를 토대로, 262 nm의 파장대에서 관찰된 LMCT(ligand-to-metal charge transfer) peak이 사라지는 시간을 기준으로 하여 공정을 진행하였다. 합성된 나노입자는 순환 전류-전압곡선(CV), TEM이미지와 XRD 분석을 이용하여 전기화학적 특성, 입자의 평균 크기 및 형상 변화를 비교 분석 하였다. 그 결과 CTAB을 넣지 않은 백금나노입자의 경우, CTAB을 넣고 제조한 백금 나노입자와는 달리 구의 형태로 뭉쳐있음을 관찰하였고, 이러한 백금 나노입자의 구조는 보다 높은 전기화학적 활성 특성을 가짐을 보였다.

Herein, we have fabricated an ultrathin aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$) coated PP separator by using a RF sputter deposition process. Approximately 20 nm thickness coating layer on the bare PP separator was formed at the power of 55 W for 2 minutes without thermal damage. Whereas only permeability of the coated separator was degraded slightly, other properties such as thermal stability, uptake amount of liquid electrolyte, and ionic conductivity were improved comparing to the bare PP separator. As a result, an only 20-nm-thick $Al_2O_3$ coating layer could improve the rate capability compared with a bare PP separator under a high current density.

일반적으로, 전도성 고분자는 금속에 준하는 전기 전도도와 다공성을 이용한 전해질 이온 및 생채 고분자의 물리, 화학적 도우핑 능력을 장점으로 한다. 따라서, 이 분야의 최근 연구동향도 이온 도우핑에 의한 전도성 고분자의 전기 전도도 향상에 초점이 맞추어져 있으며, 이미 다수의 연구진에 의행 여러 가지 방법이 제시되었다. 본 논문은 전기 화학적 cementation 공정을 이용하여 금속 이온을 전도성 고분자에 도우핑하고 특성을 고찰하였다. 전도성 고분자로써 polypyrrole (PPy)을 사용하고, micropaticles (구리와 니켈 이온)를 도펀트 (dopant)로 하여 -1.5 V ${\sim}$ 2V의 범위에서 순환 전압 전류법 (Cyclic voltammetry)을 이용해 organic-inorganic complex를 제작하였고, 각각의 전극을 비교, 분석 하였다. 구리 이온을 도우핑한 PPy 필름은 전기 전도도가 매우 우수하나 대기 중 공기 및 수분에 의해 쉽게 산화되므로 life-time이 짧다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 상대적으로 안정한 니켈 이온을 도우핑한 PPy 필름의 전기 화학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 전극의 표면은 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy)를 이용하여 분석하였다.

As the attachable-type wearable devices have received considerable interests, the need for the development of high-performance electrode materials of fabric or textiles type is emerging. In this study, we demonstrated the electrochemical property of CNT fibers electrode as a flexible electrode material and its non-enzymatic glucose sensing performance. Surface morphology of CNT fibers was observed by SEM. And the electrochemical characteristics were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and chronoamperometry. The CNT fibers based sensor exhibited improved sensing performances such as high sensitivity, a wide linear range, and low detection limit due to improved electrochemical properties such as low capacitive current, good electrochemical activity by efficient direct electron transfer between the redox species and the electrode interface. Therefore, this study is expected to be used as a basic research for the development of high performance flexible electrode materials based on CNT fibers.

To develop flexible electrode materials for wearable devices, we investigated the electrochemical characteristics of carbon fibers tow according to pretreatment. And an electrochemical non-enzymatic sensor was fabricated using glucose as a target. The carbon fibers tow was pretreated through desizing and activation processes, and activation was performed in two ways: chemical oxidation and electrochemical oxidation. Surface morphology of carbon fibers tow samples was observed by SEM and their electrochemical characteristics and sensing performance were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and chronoamperometry. Carbon fibers tow samples showed improved electrochemical properties such as reduced R_et, ΔE_p, and increased I_p through pretreatment. And similar electrochemical properties were obtained with both activation methods. We selected electrochemically activated carbon fibers tow as the final electrode material for application of electrochemical sensor. The non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on this electrode has an enhanced sensitivity of 0.744 A/mM (in a linear range of 0.09899~3.75423 mM) and 0.330 mA/mM (3.75423~50 mM), respectively. Through this study, the possibility of using carbon fibers tow was confirmed as an electrode material. It is expected to be used as basic research for development of high-performance flexible electrode materials.

In this report, polyoxometalte (POM)-doped polypyrrole (Ppy) was deposited on surface of three-dimensional carbon cloth (CC) using an electrodeposition method and its pseudocapacitive behavior was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge. The POM-Ppy coating was thin and conformal which can be controlled by electrodeposition time. As-prepared POM-Ppy/CC was characterized using scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The unique 3D nanocomposite structure of POM-Ppy/CC was capable of delivering excellent charge storage performances: a high areal capacitance ($561mF/cm^2$), a high rate capability (85%), and a good cycling performance (97% retention).

그래핀은 우수한 전기적, 광학적, 기계적인 특성들로 인해 주목을 받아왔지만 그래핀의 상용화에는 많은 문제점들이 있었다. 그 중 비교적 고품질의 대면적 그래핀 필름을 얻기 위한 방법으로 화학증기 증착법이 개발됨에 따라 그래핀 합성은 더 이상 어려운 문제는 아니다. 다만, 소자 제작에 있어서 좋은 전하이동도와 저항을 유지하기 위해 소자 제작과정 중의 도핑의 감소가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 화학증기 증착법을 통해 만들어진 그래핀 소자 제작과정 중 그래핀 전사과정에서의 도핑을 줄이기 위한 방법으로 전기화학적 박리법(버블링 전사)을 이용하였고 이 때 사용되는 전해질의 종류에 따라 도핑의 영향을 분석하였다.

In this study, the electrochemical performance of surface modified carbon using the PFO (pyrolyzed fuel oil) was investigated by chemical activation with KOH and $K_2CO_3$. PFO was heat treated at $390{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ for 1~3h to prepared the pitch. Three carbon precursors (pitch) prepared by the thermal reaction were 3903 (at $390^{\circ}C$ for 3h), 4001(at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1h) and 4002 (at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2h). Also, the effect of chemical activation catalysts and mixing time on the development of porosity during carbonization was investigated. The prepared carbon was analyzed by BET and FE-SEM. It was shown that chemical activation with KOH could be successfully used to develop carbon with specific surface area ($3.12m^2/g$) and mean pore size (22 nm). The electrochemical characteristics of modified carbon as the anode were investigated by constant current charge/discharge, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance tests. The coin cell using pitch (4002) modified by KOH has better initial capacity (318 mAh/g) than that of other pitch coin cells. Also, this prepared carbon anode appeared a high initial efficiency of 80% and the retention rate capability of 2C/0.1 C was 92%. It is found that modified carbon anode showed improved cycling and rate capacity performance.
