A facile method for surface coating with $Li_2TiF_6$ which has a high lithium-ion conductivity, on $LiMn_2O_4$ spinel cathode material for high performance lithium ion batteries. The surface coating is performed by using a co-precipitation method with $Li_2CO_3$ powder and $H_2TiF_6$ solution under room temperature and atmospheric pressure without special equipment. Total coating amount of $Li_2TiF_6$ is carefully controlled from 0 to 10 wt.% based on the active material of $LiMn_2O_4$. They are evaluated by a systematic combination of analyses comprising with XRD, SEM, TEM and ICP. It is found that the surface modification of $Li_2TiF_6$ is very beneficial to high cycle life and excellent rate capability by reducing surface failure and supporting lithium ions transportation on the surface. The best coating condition is found to have a high cycle life of $103mAh\;g^{-1}$ at the 100th cycle and a rate capability of $102.9mAh\;g^{-1}$ under 20 C. The detail electrochemical behaviors are investigated by AC impedance and galvanostatic charge and discharge test.

In this study, we have investigated the power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells utilizing conjugated polymer/fullerene bulk-hetero junction(BHJ) device structures. We have fabricated poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT), poly[2methoxy-5-(3',7'-dimethyloctyl-oxy)-1-4-phenylenevinylene] as an electron donor, [6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$ butyric acid methylester(PCBM-$C_{61}$)as an electron acceptor, and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) used as a hole injection layer(HIL), after fabricated active layer, between active layer and metal cathode(Al) deposited LiF interlayer(5 nm). The properties of fabricated organic solar cell(OSC) devices have been analyzed as a function of different thickness. The electrical characteristics of the fabricated devices were investigated by means J-V, fill factor(FF) and power conversion efficiency(PCE). We observed the highest PCEs of 0.628%(MDMO-PPV:PCBM-$C_{61}$) and 2.3%(P3HT:PCBM-$C_{61}$) with LiF inter-layer at the highest thick active layer, which is 1.3times better than the device without LiF inter-layer.

$Li_2MnO_3-LiMO_2$(M=Ni, Co, Mn) 나노 복합체는 높은 이론 용량을 가지고 있어 전기 자동차용 2차 전지 활물질 재료로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 $Li_2MnO_3-LiMO_2$(M=Ni, Co, Mn)로부터 250 mAh/g 이상의 용량을 구현하기 위해서는 4.4 V 이상의 구동전압이 필요하며, 이러한 높은 구동 전압은 전지의 수명 및 고온 방치 특성의 저해 요소로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해서 FEC (Fluoroethylene carbonate), 플루오로알킬 에테르, $LiPF_6$가 주성분인 신규 전해액(F-based EL)을 설계하였다. F-based EL은 1.3 M $LiPF_6$ EC/EMC/DMC (3/4/3, v/v/v) (STD) 대비 안정한 SEI를 형성하며, 산화 안정성이 뛰어나 $Li_2MnO_3-LiMO_2$(M=Ni, Co, Mn)/graphite 셀의 수명 및 방치 중 가스 저감에 효과가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The passivation films with epoxy layer on LiF, $SiN_x$ and LiF/$SiN_x$ inorganic layer were fabricated on OLED to protect device from the direct damage of $O_2$ and $H_2O$ and to apply for a buffer layer between OLED device and passivation multi-layer with organic/inorganic hybrid structure as to diminish the thermal stress and expansion. Red OLED doped with 1 vol.% Rubrene in $Alq_3$ was used as a basic device. The device structure was multi-layer of ITO(150 nm) / ELM200_HIL(50 nm) / ELM002_HTL(30 nm) / $Alq_3$: 1 vol.% Rubrene(30 nm) / $Alq_3$(30 nm) / LiF(0.7 nm) / Al(100 nm). LiF/epoxy applied as a protective layer didn't contribute to the improvement of life time. While in case of $SiN_x$/epoxy, damage was done in the passivation process because of difference in heat expansion between films which could occur during the formation of epoxy film. Using LiF/$SiN_x$/epoxy improved lifetime significantly without suffering damage in the process of forming films, therefore, the best structure of passivation film with inorganic/epoxy layers was LiF/$SiN_x$/E1.

In this paper, we used computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) software with several models for the simulation of a TL glow curve which was used for analysis. By using the general approximation plus model, parameters values of the glow curve were analyzed and compared with the other models parameters (general approximation, mixed order kinetics, general order kinetics). The LiF:Mg,Cu,Si and the LiF:Mg,Cu,P material were used for the glow curve analysis. And we based on figure of merits (FOM) which was the goodness of the fitting that was monitored through the value between analysis model and TLD materials. The ideal value of FOM is 0 which represents a perfect fit. The main glow peak makes the most effect of radiation dose assessment of TLD materials. The main peak of the LiF:Mg,Cu,Si materials has a intensity rate 80.76% of the whole TL glow intensity, and that of LiF:Mg,Cu,P materials has a intensity rate 68.07% of the whole TL glow intensity. The activation energy of LiF:Mg,Cu,Si was analyzed as 2.39 eV by result of the general approximation plus(GAP) model. In the case of mixed order kinetics (MOK), the activation energy was analyzed as 2.29 eV. The activation energy was analyzed as 2.38 eV by the general order kinetics (GOK) model. In the case of LiF:Mg,Cu,P TLD, the activation energy was analyzed as 2.39 eV by result of the GAP model. In the case of MOK, the activation energy was analyzed as 2.55 eV. The activation energy was analyzed as 2.51 eV by the GOK model. The R value means different ratio of retrapping-recombination. The R value of LiF:Mg,Cu,Si TLD main peak analyzed as $1.12\times10^{-6}$ and $\alpha$ value analyzed as $1.0\times10^{-3}$. The R of LiF:Mg,Cu,P TLD analyzed as $7.91\times10^{-4}$, the $\alpha$ value means different ratio of initial thermally trapped electron density-initial trapped electron density (include thermally disconnected trap electrons density). The $\alpha$ value was analyzed as $9.17\times10^{-1}$ which was the difference from LiF:Mg,Cu,Si TLD. The deep trap electron density of LiF:Mg,Cu,Si was higher than the deep trap electron density of LiF:Mg,Cu,P.

Composite scintillation screens on a base of Gd_1.2Y_1.8Ga_2.5Al_2.5O₁₂:Ce (GYAGG) scintillator have been evaluated for neutron detection. Besides the powdered scintillator, the composite includes ⁶LiF particles; both are merged with a binder and deposited onto the light-reflecting aluminum substrate. Results obtained demonstrates that screens are suitable for use with a silicon photomultiplier readout to create a prospective solution for a compact and low-cost thermal neutron sensor. Composite GYAGG/⁶LiF scintillation screen shows a pretty matched sensitivity and γ-background rejection with a widely used ZnS/⁶LiF screens however, possesses forty times faster response.

The geometries and isomerization of the alkylidene silylenoid $H_2C$ = SiLiF as well as its insertion reactions with R-H (R = F, OH, $NH_2$) have been systematically investigated at the B3LYP/6-311+$G^*$ level of theory. The potential barriers of the three insertion reactions are 97.5, 103.3, and 126.1 kJ/mol, respectively. Here, all the mechanisms of the three reactions are identical to each other, i.e., an intermediate has been formed first during the insertion reaction. Then, the intermediate could dissociate into the substituted silylene ($H_2C$ = SiHR) and LiF with a barrier corresponding to their respective dissociation energies. Correspondingly, the reaction energies for the three reactions are -36.4, -24.3, and 3.7 kJ/mol, respectively. Compared with the insertion reaction of $H_2C$ = Si: and R-H (R = F, OH and $NH_2$), the introduction of LiF makes the insertion reaction occur more easily. Furthermore, the effects of halogen (F, Cl, Br) substitution and inorganic salts employed on the reaction activity have also been discussed. As a result, the relative reactivity among the three insertion reactions should be as follows: H-F > H-OH > H-$NH_2$.

최근 개발된 방사선량 측정용 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si TL 소자의 글로우 곡선, 방출스펙트럼, 광자에 대한 선량의존성, 에너지의존성 및 페이팅 등과 같은 물리적 및 선량계적 특성들을 연구하였다. LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si TL 소자는 LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si TL 분말에 압력을 가한 후 소결하는 방법으로 제조되었다. 방사선에 대한 특성을 알아보기 위하여 광자선 조사는 한국원자력연구소의 X선 발생 장치 및 $^{137}Cs$ ${\gamma}$선 원격조사장치를 이용하였으며, 사용된 광자선 에너지 범위는 20-662keV, 선량 범위는 $10^{-6}-10^{-2}\;Gy$이었다. 글로우 곡선은 수동형의 TLD 판독장치 (System 310, Teledyne)로 질소를 흘리면서 선형적인 가열률로 측정하였으며, TL 강도는 글로우 곡선을 전체 적분한 면적으로 평가하였다. $5^{\circ}C\;s^{-1}$의 선형적인 가열률로 측정한 글로우 곡선은 5개의 피크들로 분리되었으며, $234^{\circ}C$에 나타나는 주피크의 활성화에너지는 2.34 eV, 진동수인자는 $1.00{\times}10^{23}$이고, 방출스펙트럼은 410nm를 중심으로한 단일한 분포로 나타났다. 선량의존성은 100Gy 이상까지 선형성을 나타내었으며, $^{137}Cs$에 대한 저에너지 광자의 상대적인 에너지 반응값은 20% 범위 이내였다. 또한 실온에서 1년간 보관하였을 때, 시간경과에 따른 TL 감도의 감소가 거의 없는 좋은 페이딩 특성을 보였다.

본 연구는 방사선 치료 영역의 선량 측정을 위하여 상용화된 열형광선량계의 가열 온도에 따른 형광 곡선의 특성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 열형광선량계는 LiF:Mg${\cdot}$Ti, LiF:Mg${\cdot}$Cu${\cdot}$P, $CaF_2$:Dy, $CaF_2$:Mn(Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., USA)이었다. 선원과 고체 팬텀 표면(RW3 slab, IBA Dosimetry, Germany)간 거리를 100cm로 하여 기준점 깊이에서 6MV, 15MV X선과 6MeV, 12MeV 전자선을 각각 100MU 조사하였다. 방사선 조사 후 열형광 판독기(Hashaw 3500, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., USA)를 사용하여 $50^{\circ}C$에서 $260^{\circ}C$까지 $15^{\circ}C/sec$의 가온율로 가열하여 형광 곡선을 분석하였다. 트랩 준위에 포획된 전자가 정공과 결합하면서 빛을 방출하는 형광 피크(glow peak)는 2개 또는 3개의 피크가 나타났으며 방사선 조사 후 TLD의 온도를 일정하게 증가시켰을 때 최대 형광 피크를 나타내는 형광 온도의 경우 각각의 에너지에 따라 $LiF:Mg{\cdot}Ti$ 선량계는 $185.5{\pm}1.3^{\circ}C$, $LiF:Mg{\cdot}Ti$ 선량계는 $135.0{\pm}5.1^{\circ}C$, $CaF_2$:Dy 선량계는 $144.0{\pm}1.6^{\circ}C$, $CaF_2$:Mn 선량계는 $294.3{\pm}3.8^{\circ}C$ 근처에서 최대 형광 피크를 각각 나타났다. 방사선 조사 후 포획 전자의 형광 방출 확률은 가열 온도에 의존하게 되므로 방사선 치료 영역의 선량 측정에서 방사선 조사 후 열형광선량계에 일정한 가온율을 적용함으로써 고유한 물리적 특성에 따른 측정 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
