The properties of LiMnO$_2$ was studied as a cathode active material for lithium polymer batteries. LiMnO$_2$ cathode active materials were synthesized by the reaction of LiOH . $H_2O$ and Mn$_2$O$_3$at various temperature under argon atmosphere. For lithium polymer battery applications, the LiMnO$_2$cell was characterized electrochemically by charge-discharge experiments and a.c. impedance spectroscopy. And the relationship between the characteristics of powders and electrochemical properties was studied in this research. A maximum discharge capacity of 160-170 mAh/g for ο-LiMnO$_2$ cell was achieved. Used that SP270 as electric active material in LiMnO$_2$, it is excellent than property of electric active material used Acetylene black or KS6 at charge/discharge capacity.

Spinel cathode material $LiMn_2O_4$ is currently studied as a promising cathode material for lithium ion secondary batteries for future applications because of it is low cost, easy to be prepared and capable to be operated in high voltage range. However as a cathode material, $LiMn_2O_4$ performs a poor capacity retention which leads to short cycle life. In this study, stoichiometric $LiMn_2O_4$ was synthesized with granulation method with ion substitution to stabilize its structure and niobium doping to improve its conductivity. These well-mixed powders were calcined at $850^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours and its properties were investigated. Correlations of dopant and electrochemical properties were examined as well.

A Li-rich cathode material, Li_1.167Mn_0.548Ni_0.18Co_0.105O₂, with a spherical shape and high crystallinity, is prepared using flame spray pyrolysis. The post-heat treatment condition influences the properties of the prepared material, such as its structure, morphology, and chemical composition, and optimum performance is achieved at 900℃. Various excess Li contents (0-12 wt.%) are introduced in the precursor solution to compensate for volatilized Li during synthesis, bringing it close to the target composition. Compensation for volatilized Li enhances the electrochemical performance, i.e., the Li-compensated sample shows a good discharge capacity of 247 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 20 mA g^-1 in a potential window of 4.6-2.5 V. In addition, the prepared Li-rich cathode material supplemented with 9 wt.% of the Li source shows increased discharge capacity of 175 and 148 mAh g^-1 at 200 and 400 mA g^-1, respectively, compared with those of a bare sample (164 and 127 mAh g^-1, respectively).

In this study, we report an improved efficiency of Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs), using $UV/O_3$ treated anode and different cathode. We investigated the efficiency of OLEDs by $UV/O_3$ treatment of ITO surface. We Performed $UV/O_3$ treatment and found that $UV/O_3$ treatment enhanced the performance of OLEDs. The fundamental structure of the OLEDs was ITO $anode/{\alpha}-NPD/Alq_3/Al$ or Li:Al cathode. The Li:Al can improve the OLEDs efficiency dramatically in cathode because it has lower work function than Al. Current-voltage, Luminance-voltage characteristics and luminance efficiency were measured at room temperature.

In 2-dimensional SCBF (Spherically Convergent Beam Fusion) device, the effect on neutron production rate of the grid cathode geometry was simulated. The motion of Particles was tracked using Monte Carlo Method including the atomic and molecular collision processes and potential distribution was calculated by Finite Element Method, Main processes of the discharge were the ionization of $D_2$ by fast $D_2^+\;ion$. As the number of cathode rings was small and the size of grid cathode decreased, the ion current increased and neutron production rate will also increase. The star mode discharge which is a very important characteristic in SCBF device, was confirmed by the ionization position.

Efficient electron injection is essential to achieve bright and efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In spite of high work function of Al, it is a common cathode because of its stability. In this paper, to overcome the poor electron injection in OLEDs with Al cathode, OLEDs with various composite cathodes were fabricated and investigated using a conventional OLEDs structure of indium tin oxide ITO/NPB(40 nm)/$Alq_3$(50 nm)/Al. composite cathodes were composed of alkaline materials such as Ca and Li, Al deposition or codeposited with AI. We showed best performance at the device with composite cathode (LiF/Al).

To allow stable cycling of layered nickel-rich cathode material at high voltage, silyl-functionalized dimethoxydimethylsilane is proposed as a multi-functional additive. In contrast to typical functional additive, dimethoxydimethylsilane does not make artificial cathode-electrolyte interfaces by electrochemical oxidation because it is quite stable under anodic polarization. We find that dimethoxydimethylsilane mainly focuses on scavenging nucleophilic fluoride species that can be produced by electrolyte decomposition during cycling, leading to improving interfacial stability of both nickel-rich cathode and graphite anode. As a result, the cell cycled with dimethoxydimethylsilane-controlled electrolyte exhibits 65.7% of retention after 100 cycle, which is identified by systematic spectroscopic analyses for the cycled cell.

In-situ lithiated NiO has been manufactured as a conventional cathode material of molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC), however this material has a weakness for commercialization of MCFC because NiO is spontaneously dissolved into the electrolyte under MCFC operating conditions, resulting in short circuit between cathode and anode. In this research, therefore, $Co(OH)_2$-coated Ni powder was prepared by precipitation method with controlling pH at low temperature and atmospheric pressure. Modified cathode was fabricated by a conventional tape casting method and sintered at 700$^{\circ}C$ in a $H_2/N_2$ atmosphere, Based on characterization result, Pore size distribution and porosity was suitable for the cathode of MCFC. According to the result of dissolution, Ni solubility of modified cathode was 33% lower than that of conventional cathode. In addition, modified electrode showed a good performance from the single cell operation.

Electrical, optical, and structural properties of indium zinc oxide (IZO) films grown by a box cathode sputtering (BCS) were investigated as a function of oxygen flow ratio. A sheet resistance of $42.6{\Omega}/{\Box}$, average transmittance above 88% in visible range, and root mean spare roughness of $2.7{\AA}$ were obtained even in the IZO layers grown at room temperature. In addition, it is shown that electrical characteristics of the top-emitting organic light emitting diodes (TOLEDs) with the BCS grown-IZO top cathode layer is better than that of TOLEDs with DC sputter grown IZO top cathode, due to absence of plasma damage effect. Furthermore the effects of oxygen flow ratio in IZO films are investigated, based on x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ultra violet/visible (UV/VIS) spectro-meter, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis results.

본 연구에서는 NCM [Li(Ni_xCo_yMn_z)O₂] 양극활물질을 합성하기 위한 내화갑의 재료로 순수 금속 재료인 Nickel을 제안하였다. Nickel은 산화에 강하고 녹는점이 높은 금속으로 알려져 있다. 니켈은 NCM 양극활물질의 주성분 중 하나로 양극물질 합성 동안에 saggar로 부터의 오염에 대한 문제에 자유로울 것으로 기대하였다. 본 연구진은 니켈이 NCM 양극물질 합성용 내화갑으로서의 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 900℃에서 Ni 금속 도가니와 Ni_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1(OH)₂ (NCM 811) 전구체 물질을 장시간 반응시켰을 때, 시간 변화에 따른 도가니 표면 반응층 변화를 분석하였다. 900℃에서 열처리 동안에 형성된 니켈 도가니 반응층은 니켈 산화물이었으며, 양극 전구체 산화물로 부터의 산소확산과 대기 중의 산소와 반응이 동시에 이루어져서 생성된 것으로 생각된다. 산화층은 480시간 이후로 그 두께의 변화가 느려지는 것으로 보아 전구체로 부터의 산소 확산속도가 감소되는 것으로 생각된다. 480시간까지는 도가니로 부터 탈락되지 않고 결합되어 있었다. 그러나 720시간 후에는 산화층이 탈락되는 것이 확인되어 일정 시간까지만 NCM 합성용 Saggar로서 사용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
