Into a no-conjugated polymer chain we have introduced side chains with a styrene-linked triphenylamine segment as a $\pi-electron$ donor, styrene-]inked aminobenzaldehyde segment as a tunable reactive -CHO group, and PM (4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-(tert-butyl)-4H-pyran) moiety as a $\pi-electron$ acceptor for red emitting materials. The thermal stability and the optical properties of the statistical copolymers have been studied. All the polymers were electrochemically active and showed electroluminescent emission at around 700nm. The EL device of P5-PM based on the sturcture of $ITO/PPV/polymer/BCP/Alq_3/Al$ showed a maximum brightness of $120cd/m^2\;at\;50mA/cm^2$ with an external quantum efficiency of $0.67\%$. It was possible to enhance the external quantum efficiency by balancing the charge recombination. A red-emitting polymer with high external quantum efficiency was developed by incorporating bifunctionality.

Pulse current 전기 도금법을 사용해 균일하고 넓은 표면적을 갖는 Pt 나노구조가 제조되었다. 도금된 Pt 나노구조의 형태와 크기 분석을 위해 SFM과 TEM이 사용되었으며, 결정성 분석에는 XRD가 사용되었다. 고분자 첨가제를 첨가하여 도금되는 Pt의 크기를 제어할 수 있었는데, 순수한 Pt에 비해 첨가제의 영향으로 크기가 제어된 나노구조의 Pt들의 평균크기는 각각 3.4 nm와 2.9 nm로 순수한 Pt 360 nm의 것에 비해 훨씬 작아진 결과를 나타낼 뿐 아니라 크기가 제어된 나노구조 Pt는 메탄올 전기 산화반응에서도 순수한 Pt보다 뛰어난 촉매활성을 가짐을 보여주었다.

공정의 단순함과 낮은 전력을 사용하여 구동이 가능한 장점을 가진 무기물 나노입자를 포함한 무기물/유기물 나노복합체를 사용한 비휘발성 메모리의 전기적 성질에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 다양한 나노입자를 포함한 고분자 박막에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되었지만, InP/CdSe 코어쉘 나노입자가 고분자 박막에 분산되어 있는 나노복합체를 사용하여 제작한 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 전기적 성질과 소자의 안전성에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 박막 안에 분산되어 있는 InP/CdSe 코어쉘 나노입자를 사용한 메모리 소자를 제작하여 전기적 성질과 소자의 안정성에 대한 관찰을 하였다. 화학적으로 세척된 indium-tin-oxide (ITO)가 코팅된 유리 기판 위에 InP/CdSe 코어쉘 나노입자와 절연성 고분자가 혼합된 용액을 스핀코팅 방법으로 도포하여 박막을 형성하여 활성층으로 사용하였다. 형성된 박막 위에 Al 상부 전극을 고진공에서 열 증착 방식을 이용하여 ITO/InP/CdSe 코어쉘 나노입자가 분산된 절연성 고분자층/Al 구조를 갖는 메모리 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 전류-전압 특성을 측정한 결과 동일 전압에서 전도도가 좋은 상태 (low resistance states; LRS)와 좋지 않은 상태 (high resistance states; HRS)인 두개의 상태가 존재하는 걸 확인하였다. LRS 또는 HRS 변화를 일으키는 일정 전압을 가하기 전까지는 각각의 LRS 또는 HRS를 계속 유지하여 비휘발성 메모리 소자로서의 활용 가능성을 보여주었다. LRS 또는 HRS의 안정성을 확인하기 위해 LRS 또는 HRS의 스트레스 실험으로 관측하였다. 제작된 메모리 소자의 실험 결과를 바탕으로 전하수송 메커니즘을 설명하였다.

Solid polymer electrolyte films are prepared by ultraviolet radiation in the mixtures of an ionic liquid salt (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, $EMIBF_4$) and solvent (acetonitrile (ACN) or propylene carbonate(PC)), and an oligomer (poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate, PEGDA, 45-60 wt.%). Electrochemical properties of activated carbon supercapacitors adopting the solid polymer electrolyte films as a separator are also examined by cyclic voltammetry and impedance measurement techniques. As a result, the supercapacitor adopting the PEGDA as much as 45 wt.% exhibits a superior capacitance of $46Fg^{-1}$ at $20mVs^{-1}$. It seems that this is due to fast kinetics of ion conduction by sufficient film flexibility, which can be allowed by comparatively weak ultraviolet curing of small anount of the PEGDA.

In this study, polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based porous carbon nanofibers were prepared from PAN polymer solution by electrospinning and KOH activation with various concentrations, and the characterization of pore structures and carbon dioxide adsorption was investigated. Manufactured PAN-based activated carbon nanofibers tend to decrease diameter and increase surface oxygen functional groups depending on the increasing concentration of KOH solution. In addition, according to the results of nitrogen adsorption for pore properties analysis, it indicated increase of the specific surface area in conformity with increasing concentration of KOH solution. Micropore volume of treated activated carbon nanofibers (ANCF) by 4 M KOH was the largest compared with other samples and mesopore volume of treated ANCF by 8 M KOH was the largest volume, respectively. The concentration of KOH effects textural and surface properties, as represented by BET and XPS, which enhance carbon dioxide adsorption capacity at 0 and $25^{\circ}C$.

Nonaqueous organic electrolyte solution in commercially available lithium-ion batteries, due to its flammability, corrosiveness, high volatility, and thermal instability, is demanding to be substituted by safer solid electrolyte with higher cycle stability, which will be utilized effectively in large-scale power sources such as electric vehicles and energy storage system. Of various types of solid electrolytes, composite solid electrolytes with polymer matrix and active inorganic fillers are now most promising in achieving higher ionic conductivity and excellent interface contact. In this review, some kinds and brief history of solid electrolyte are at first introduced and consequent explanations of polymer solid electrolytes and inorganic solid electrolytes (including active and inactive fillers) are comprehensively carried out. Composite solid electrolytes including these polymer and inorganic materials are also described with their electrochemical properties in terms of filler shapes, such as particle (0D), fiber (1D), plane (2D), and solid body (3D). In particular, in all-solid-state lithium batteries using lithium metal anode, the interface characteristics are discussed in terms of cathode-electrolyte interface, anode-electrolyte interface, and interparticle interface. Finally, current requisites and future perspectives for the composite solid electrolytes are suggested by help of some decent reviews recently reported.

Polystyrene/carbon nanotube (CNT) microcellular foams were prepared to have electrically conductive properties via high internal phase emulsion polymerization. In this study, we have investigated the effects of surface modification of CNT, surfactant content and dispersion time to improve the stability of emulsion and the electrical conductivity of foam. Acid treatment and a surfactant were used to effectively disperse CNTs in the aqueous phase. In the organic phase, CNTs were used after a surface modification with organic functional groups. The degree of dispersion of CNTs was estimated by the electrical conductivity of resultant microcellular foams. With raw CNTs dispersed with the surfactant in the aqueous phase, substantial conductivity increase was observed but the foams were slightly shrunk. The foams prepared with organically modified CNTs dispersed in the organic phase showed stable cell morphology without shrinkage, but displayed limitation to improve the conductivity.

Fuel cells are expected to be one of the major clean new energy sources in the near future. However, the slow kinetics of electrocatalytic hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), and the high loading of Pt for the anode and cathode material are the urgent issues to be addressed since they determine the efficiency and the cost of this energy source. In this review paper, a new approach was developed for designing electrocatalysts for the HOR and ORR in fuel cells. It was found that the electronic properties of Pt could be fine-tuned by the electronic and geometric effects introduced by the substrate alloy metal and the lateral effects of the neighboring metal atoms. The role of substrate was found reflected in a volcano plot for the HOR and ORR as a function of their calculated d-band centers. This paper demonstrated a viable way to designing the electrocatalysts which could successfully alleviate two issue facing the commercializing of the fuel cell-the cost of electrocatalysts and their efficiency.

In this study, a triboelectric nanogenerator was fabricated using the composite of teflon-based polymer and graphene flower, which are stable in air and have relatively high electronegativity. The composite was used to fabricate an electronegative layer of a nanogenerator using a spin-coating method. For the electropositive layer, a zinc oxide film was prepared using a sol-gel method. The fabricated triboelectric nanogenerator produced a maximum power of about 44 ㎼. In conclusion, since all the active layers of the triboelectric nanogenerator was made by the solution process, it is scalable to a large area.
