As information-oriented industry has been developed and electronic devices has come to be smaller, lighter, multifunctional, and high speed, the components used to the devices need to be much high density and should have find pattern due to high integration. Also, diverse reliability problems happen as user environment is getting harsher. For this reasons, establishing and securing products and components reliability comes to key factor in company's competitiveness. It makes accelerated test important to check product reliability in fast way. Out of fine pattern failure modes, failure of Electrochemical Migration(ECM) is kind of degradation of insulation resistance by electro-chemical reaction, which it comes to be accelerated by biased voltage in high temperature and high humidity environment. In this thesis, the accelerated life test for failure caused by ECM on fine pattern substrate, $20/20{\mu}m$ pattern width/space applied by Semi Additive Process, was performed, and through this test, the investigation of failure mechanism and the life-time prediction evaluation under actual user environment was implemented. The result of accelerated test has been compared and estimated with life distribution and life stress relatively by using Minitab software and its acceleration rate was also tested. Through estimated weibull distribution, B10 life has been estimated under 95% confidence level of failure data happened in each test conditions. And the life in actual usage environment has been predicted by using generalized Eyring model considering temperature and humidity by developing Arrhenius reaction rate theory, and acceleration factors by test conditions have been calculated.

Removal of heavy metal ions ($Cd^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$) by electrocoagulation (ECG) was investigated in an acidic condition, which is necessary for re-using or discharging the mediated electrochemical oxidation (MEO) media. Effects of various parameters such as electrolytes, current densities, and electrode materials were examined for a metal-contaminated MEO system using $Fe^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$ pairs as a mediator. It was found that ECG with Al electrodes is greatly affected by the presence of $Fe^{2+}$. [$Cd^{2+}$] and [$Zn^{2+}$] remain constant until [$Fe^{2+}$] reaches a certain concentration level (ca. 10 mM). This preferential removal of $Fe^{2+}$ during ECG with Al electrodes is not alleviated by controlling current densities, potential programs, and solution mixing. ECG with Fe electrodes, on the other hand, resulted in relatively fast removal of $Cd^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ under coexistence of $Fe^{2+}$, indicative of the different role between $Fe^{n+}$ generated from an electrode and $Fe^{2+}$ initially present in a solution. When ECG was performed with Fe electrodes until [$Fe^{n+}$] became the same as the concentration of initially present $Fe^{2+}$, [$Cd^{2+}$] and [$Zn^{2+}$] were reduced to one-tenth of the initial concentrations, suggesting the possibility of a continuous use of the medium for a subsequent MEO process.

Highly ordered pure-silica MCM-41 materials possessing well-defined morphology have been successfully prepared with surfactant used as a template. The fabrication of mesoporous silica has received considerable attention due to the need to develop more efficient materials' for catalysis, separations, and chemical sensing. The surface modified MCM-41 was used as anadsorbent for biomolecules. Silica-supported organic groups and DNA adsorption on surface modified MCM-41 were investigated by FT-IR and UV-Vis spectrometer, respectively. The use of MCM-41 as the modification of electrode surfaces were investigated electrochemical properties of metal mediators with biomolecules. The modified ITO electrodes increased peak currents for a redox process of $[Ru(bpy)_3]^{2+}$ relative to the bare electrode. The electrochemical detection of DNA by cyclic voltammetry when the current is saturated in the presence of the mediator appeared more sensitive due to a higher catalytic current on the MCM-41 supported electrodes modified by carboxylic acid functional groups. The carboxyl or amine groups on the surface of MCM-41 interact and react with the $-NH_2$ groups of guanine and backbone, respectively. Highly ordered mesoporous materials with organic groups could find applications as DNA sensors.

염기성 용액에서 가벼운 란탄족 원소 착물의 전기화학적 거동을 직류(DC), 펄스차이 폴라로그래피(DPP), 순환전압전류법(CV) 및 정전위 전기분해법으로 조사하였다. 란탄이온들은 NaCl 지지전해질에서 o-cresolphthalexon(OCP)과 1:1로 배위하였으며, 전극반응은 2단계 1전자 환원반응이었다. 착물의 반파전위는 pH에 따라 변화하였으며 환원전류는 흡착성을 나타냈다. DC 및 CV에서 첫번째 1전자 환원반응은 유사가역적 거동을 나타냈으며, 환원 뒤에 형성된 음이온 라디칼은 이합체와 반응을 하였다. 두번째 환원파는 전자전이 반응에 이어 생성된 카르보 음이온의 빠른 양성자 첨가반응으로 비가역적 거동을 나타냈다. -1.80V에서 정전위 전해시간이 증가함에 따라 착물의 질은 청색은 점점 옅어져서 무색이 되었으며, 최종생성물은 전기적으로 비활성이었다. 따라서 Ln-OCP 착물의 단계적인 전극반응은 ECEC 메카니즘으로 제안되었다.

A dinuclear copper(II) complex of [$Cu_2(aceace)_4$(dipyph)] [aceace = acetylacetone, dipyph = 1,4-di(4-pyridylethene-2-yl-)benzene] has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray single crystal diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c, with lattice parameters a = 7.9584(16) $\AA$, b = 18.594(4) $\AA$, c = 15.063(4) $\AA$ $\beta=120.97(2)^o$ and $M_r$ = 807.85 ($C_{40}H_{44}Cu_2N_2O_8$), Z = 2. Each of the $Cu^{2+}$ ion adopts a square pyramid geometry and coordinates with four oxygen atoms from two aceace ligands and one nitrogen atom from dipyph bidentate ligand. Magnetic measurement shows that the Weiss constant and Curie constant for the title compound are -0.22 K and 0.1154 emu K/mol, respectively. Thermal stability data indicate that the title complex undergoes two steps decomposition and the residue is $Cu_2O_4$. In the potential range of -1.5 ~ 0.8 V, the title complex represents an irreversible electrochemical process.

전도성이 뛰어난 피롤고분자 피막을 전기화학적으로 중합하고 이를 Gr/ppy(Polypyrrole),X.O.(xylenol orange)형의 수식된 전극을 제작하여 U(VI)의 포집에 이용하였다. 사전피막제인 NBR(nitrile butadiene rubber)을 사용하였을 때 중합속도는 $3.22\times10^{-3}s^{-1}$로 이를 사용하지 않았을 때 보다 1.6배 느린 반응이었다. 포집된 U(VI)의 양은 ppy $1.70Ccm^{-2}$ 당에 $1.55\times10^{-4}g$ 이었으며, 인공해수 중에서 matrix효과는 $6.8\%$로 나타났다. ppy전극이 Gr/ppy, $X.O^{4-}UO^+$형으로 수식됨에 따라서 피막자체의 임피던스가 증가하여 ppy만일 때의 확산에 지배적인 전도과정에서 피막자체의 전자전도와 이온도핑과정이 함께 영향을 받는 결과를 보였다. ppy전극을 X.O.로 수식하여 U(VI)를 포집함에 따라 전기이중층의 용량은 각각 56과 130여 배로 증가하였다.

Sub-micrometer $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CrO_3$ powders for ceramic interconnects of solid oxide fuel cells were synthesized by the aqueous combustion process. The materials were prepared from the precursor solutions with different glycine (fuel)-to-nitrate (oxidant) ratios (${\phi}$). Single-phase $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CrO_3$ powders with a perovskite structure were obtained after combustion when ${\phi}$ was equal to or larger than 0.480. Especially, the stoichiometric precursor with ${\phi}$ = 0.555 yielded the spherical $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CrO_3$ particles with 150-250 nm diameters after calcination at $1000^{\circ}C$. When compared with the powders synthesized by the solid-state reaction, the combustion-derived, fine powders exhibited improved sinterability, leading to near-full densification at $1400^{\circ}C$ in oxidizing atmospheres. Moreover, a small quantity of glass additives was used to reduce the sintering temperature, and considerable densification was indeed achieved at temperatures as low as $1100^{\circ}C$.

A comparative study was performed on the passivating abilities of surface films generated on lithium titanate (LTO; $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$) electrodes during pre-cycling at two different rates. The surface film deposited at a faster pre-cycling rate (i.e., 0.5 C) is irregularly shaped and unevenly covers the LTO electrode. Owing to the incomplete coverage of the protective film, this LTO electrode exhibits poor passivating ability. Additional electrolyte decomposition and concomitant film deposition occur during subsequent charge/discharge cycles. As a result of the thick surface film, severe cell polarization occurs and eventually causes cell failure. However, pre-cycling the Li/LTO cell at a slower rate (0.1 C) improves cell polarization and capacity retention; this occurs because the surface film uniformly covers the LTO electrode and provides strong passivation. Accordingly, there is no significant film deposition during subsequent charge/discharge cycling. Additionally, self-discharge is reduced during high-temperature storage.

반복적인 작동/멈춤에 의해 고분자전해질 연료전지의 성능 감소가 촉진되며, 이는 연료전지 자동차의 상용화를 위해 반드시 해결되야 한다. 고분자전해질 연료전지 스택의 운전을 정지했을 때 연료극 유로에는 수소가, 공기극 유로에는 공기가 남아 있어 연료전지가 열림회로 전위 상태에 한동안 유지되며 이로 인해 촉매의 소결이 촉진되고 과산화수소 라디칼이 형성되어 전해질를 분해시키는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 반복적인 작동/멈춤이 따라 고분자전해질 연료전지의 성능 감소와 막-전극 접합체의 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하고, 운전 정지 시 잔존 수소를 제거함으로써 연료전지 스택의 내구성을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다.
