Developing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is essential to accomplish viable CO₂ and water electrolysis. Herein, we report the fabrication and OER performance of Ni-foam (NF)-immobilized Ni₆ nanoclusters (NCs) (Ni₆/NF) prepared by a dip-coating process. The Ni₆/NF electrode exhibited a high current density of 500 mA/cm² for the OER at an overpotential as low as 0.39 V. Ni₆/NF exhibited high durability in an alkaline solution without corrosion. Electrokinetic studies revealed that OER can be easily initiated on Ni6 NC with fast electron-transfer rates. Finally, we demonstrated stable CO₂-to-CO electroreduction using an NC-based zero-gap CO₂ electrolyzer operated at a current density of 100 mA/cm² and a full-cell potential of 2.0 V for 12 h.

Newly developed silicide materials for ULSI should have the appropriate electrical property of low resistant as well as process compatibility in conventional CMOS process. We prepared $NiCoSi_x$ silicides from 15 nm-Co/15 nm-Ni/Si structure and performed contact dry etch process to confirm the dry etch stability and compatibility of $NiCoSi_x$ layers. We dry etched the photoresist/SiO/silicide/silicon patterns with $CF_4\;and\;CHF_3$ gases with varying powers from 100 to 200 W, and pressures from 45 to 65 mTorr, respectively. Polysilicon and silicon active layers without silicide were etched $0\sim316{\AA}$ during over etch time of 3min, while silicon layers with proposed $NiCoSi_x$ silicide were not etched and showed stable surfaces. Our result implies that new $NiCoSi_x$ silicides may replace the conventional silicides due to contact etch process compatibility.

We prepared $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$, $CoCO_3$.$xH_2O$ and $Ni(OH)_2$(mole ratio respectively) and heating at $850^{\circ}C$ for 5n. In the result of X-ray diffraction analysis, along fluctuation of the function of x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$(003) peak and (104) peak indensities and ratio were varied. We awared through XRD that from 0 to 0.5 at x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is well formed for hexagonal structure at one step heat treatment($850^{\circ}C$), but if Ni involve at $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ hexagonal structure is not well formed. In the result of charge/discharge tests charge/discharge capacity and effiency is different about various cathode. Therefore, the appropriate charge/discharge method must be selected for good characteristics.

The reaction-bonded TiC-Ni/Si/Co composites were prepared by the melt infiltration of Co, Si, and Ni me-tal into the TiC preforms. The miocrostructure reaction composition and mechanical properties were in-vestigated. In the case of the melt infiltrated with Co and Ni TiC grain shape was changed from angular to spherical shape with the average grain size of ∼5$\mu\textrm{m}$. In the case of the melt infiltrated with Co/Si or Ni/Si, Si was reacted with TiC particles and formed SiC particles. The bending strength of both specimens which have atomic ratio of 3 were 710 MPa and 515 MPa respectively. In the case of the melt infiltrated with Ni/Si/Co,. nonstoichiometric TiC was formed and its bending strength decreased to 420 MPa.

Power to gas (P2G) is one of the energy storage technologies that can increase the storage period and storage capacity compared to the existing battery type. One of P2G technology produces hydrogen by decomposing water from renewable energy (electricity) and the other produces CH4 by reacting hydrogen with CO2. This study is an experimental study to produce CH4 by reacting CO2 of biogas with hydrogen using a 40 wt% Ni-Mg-Al catalyst and a commercial catalyst. Catalyst characteristics were analyzed through H2-TPR, XRD, and XPS instruments of 40% Ni catalyst and commercial catalyst. The effect on the CO2 conversion rate and CH4 selectivity was analyzed, and the activities of a 40% Ni catalyst and a commercial catalyst were compared. As a result of experiment, In the case of a 40 wt% catalyst, the maximum CO2 conversion rate showed 77% at the reaction temperature of 400℃. Meanwhile, the commercial catalyst showed a maximum CO2 conversion rate of 60% at 450℃. When 50% of CO was added to the CO2 methanation reaction, the CO2 conversion rate was increased by about 5%. This is considered to be due to the atmosphere in which the CO reaction can occur without the process of converting to CH4 after forming carbon and CO as intermediates in terms of the CO2 mechanism on the catalyst surface.

초연자성을 띠는 코네틱(Conetic; NiFeCuMo) 박막을 상호 중간층으로 강자성체인 CoFe 또는 NiFe 박막 사이에 삽입한 코닝 유리(Corning glass)/Ta(5 nm)/[CoFe or NiFe(5 nm-t/2)]/NiFeCuMo(t = 0, 4, 6, 8, 10 nm)/[CoFe or NiFe(5 nm-t/2)]/Ta(5 nm) 3층 박막구조에 대한 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. CoFe와 NiFe 박막의 자기적 특성은 박막의 두께에 따라 크게 결정되므로 자화 곤란축과 자화 용이축으로 측정된 이방성 자기저항 곡선으로부터 얻은 보자력과 자화율을 각각 비교하였다. 특히 3층 박막구조에서 NiFe 박막 사이에 자유층으로 NiFeCuMo 박막을 삽입하면 높은 자기저항비를 유지하면서 향상된 자장감응도를 유지하는 고감도 바이오센서용 거대자기저항-스핀밸브(giant magnetoresistive-spin valves; GMR-SV) 및 자기터널접합(magnetic tunnel junction; MTJ) 소자로 활용할 수 있다.

출발원료로 $Li_{2}CO_{3},\;Co_{3}O_{4}$와 NiO를 사용하여 고상반응법으로 $LiMO_{2}(M=Co,Ni)$를 합성하였다. $LiCoO_{2}$는 저온$T=400^{\circ}C$에서 스피넬구조를 형성하고 온도가 증가$(T\ge600^{\circ}C)$되면 층상구조로 상전이 한다. 우리는 열처리 온도와 시간을 변수로 $LiCoO_{2}$의 스피넬구조에서 층상구조로의 상전이 거동을 관찰하였다. 스피넬구조에서 층상구조로의 상전이 속도는 스피넬상의 농도에 1차 비례하고 상전이하는 활성화 에너지는 약 6.76 kcal/mol이다. 출발원료로 스피넬구조인 $Co_{3}O_{4}$ 대신 암염 구조인 CoO를 사용하면 저온$(T=500^{\circ}C)$에서부터 층상구조가 형성되고 스피넬구조는 관찰되지 않는다. $LiNiO_{2}$는 온도가 증가함에 따라 층상구조에서 암염구조로 상전이 한다. $LiNiO_{2}$의 고온상인 암염구조는 저온에서 disordering/ordering에 의해 쉽게 층상구조로 되돌아가는 상전이 거동을 보인다. 반면 $LiCoO_{2}$에서는 층상구조에서 암염구조로의 상전이가 쉽게 일어나지 않는다. 이온반경비 $Li^+/Co^{3+}$ 보다 큰 것이 $LiCoO_{2}$의 층상구조가 고온에서 $LiNiO_{2}$의 층상구조보다 더 안정할 수 있는 이유 중의 하나로 생각된다.

다양한 조성의 CoFeNi합금이 chloride bath와 sulfate bath에서 전해도금 되어졌고, 합금의 도금 특성과 자기특성이 관찰되어졌다. CoFeNi합금 박막의 전해도금에 있어서 Fe조성의 증가는 chloride bath에서보다 sulfate bath에서 빠르게 증가하였다. 전류효율은 큰 변화가 보이지 않는 chloride bath와 달리 sulfate bath에서는 $750\%$에서 $50\%$로 큰 폭으로 감소하였다. Co, Fe, Ni조성이 $80\%,\;10\%,\;10\%$되는 CoFeNi합금이 이번 실험에서 가장 우수한 연자성 재료로 평가되었으며, 그때의 Coercivity는 3 Oe이고 높은 squareness값을 보였다

The effect of Co addition on the electrochemical performance and structural stability of porous Ni anode for molten carbonate fuel cell(MCFC) was evaluated by the anodic polarization and the sintering test in the simulated MCFC anode condition ($650^{\circ}C$, 80% $H_2$+20%$CO_2$). The anode current density ranged from 110mA/$cm^2$ to 144mA/$cm^2$ was obtained at +100mV overpotential by additions of Co up to 10 wt.%. The sintering resistance of Ni-Co anodes was higher than that of the pure Ni anode. The increase of sintering resistance seemed to be to the lower diffusion coefficient of Co than that of Ni.
