In this study, phosphorus (P)-doped nickel cobaltite (P-NiCo₂O₄) and nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxide (P-NiCo-LDH) were synthesized on nickel (Ni) foam as a conductive support using hydrothermal synthesis. The thermal properties, crystal structure, microscopic surface morphology, chemical distribution, electronic state of the constituent elements on the sample surface, and electrical properties of the synthesized P-NiCo₂O₄ and P-NiCo-LDH samples were analyzed using thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The P-NiCo₂O₄ electrode exhibited a specific capacitance of 1,129 Fg^-1 at a current density of 1 Ag^-1, while the P-NiCo-LDH electrode displayed a specific capacitance of 1,012 Fg^-1 at a current density of 1 Ag-1. When assessing capacity changes for 3,000 cycles, the P-NiCo₂O₄ electrode exhibited a capacity retention rate of 54%, whereas the P-NiCo-LDH electrode showed a capacity retention rate of 57%.

We have reported to make nanostructured cobalt oxide electrode that have large capacitance over than 400F/g (specific capacitance) and good cycleability. But, It had serious demerits of low voltage range under 0.5V and low power density. Therefore, we need to increase voltage range of cobalt oxide electrode. we report here on the electrochemical properties of sol-gel-derived nanoparticulate cobalt xerogel in 1M KOH solution and aqueous polymeric gel electrolyte. In solution electrolyte, cobalt oxide electrode had over than 250F/g capacitance consisted of EDLC and pseudocapacitance. In gel electrolyte, cobalt oxide electrode had around l00F/g capacitance. This capacitance was only surface EDLC. In solution electrolyte, potassium ion as working ion reacted with both of layers easily. However, In gel electrolyte, reacted with only surface-active layer. Its very hard to reach resistive layer. So, we have studied on pretreatment of electrode to contain working ions easily. We'll report more details.

This work presents the variation of formic acid oxidation on Pt depending on hydrodynamic condition using a rotating disk electrode. As the rotating speed increases, the oxidation rate of formic acid decreases under voltammetric and chronoamperometric measurements. The coverages of poison formed from formic acid during the chronoamperomertric investigations decrease when the rotating speed increases. As the roughness factor of Pt electrode surface increases, on the other hand, the current density of formic acid oxidation increases. These observations are discussed in terms of the tangential flow along Pt electrode surfaces generated by the rotating disk electrode, which reduces a contact time between formic acid and a Pt site, thus the formic acid adsorption.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop conducting polymer(CP) composite electrode for supercapacitor. The radius of semicircle of CP composite cell with polyaniline(PAn) composite electrode adding 30wt% acetylene black was small. The total resistance of supercapacitor cell mainly depended on internal resistance of he electrode. The discharge capacitance of supercapacitor cell with PAn composite electrode adding 30wt% acetylene black in 1st and 50th cycles was 27F/g and 31F/g at current density of 1mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Supercapacitor cell with PAn composite electrode adding 30wt% acetylene black showed a good cycliability. Supercapacitor cell of CP composite electrode with 1M LiClO$_4$/PC brings out god capacitor performance below 4V.

본 연구의 목적은 저탄성계수 Ti-30Ta 합금에 Zr 원소를 첨가하여 표면 특성 및 부식 거동을 조사하였다. 저탄성계수 Ti-30Ta-xZr(x : 3, 7, 15 wt %)합금은 아크 멜팅기로 제조하였고, 아르곤 분위기에서 $1000^{\circ}C$ 24시간 동안 열처리하였다. 합금의 미세구조는 FE-SEM 그리고 XRD를 이용하여 조사하였다. 전기화학적 특성은 시편 작업전극, 고밀도 탄소 보조전극 그리고 포화칼로멜 기준전극의 통상적인 3상을 이용하여 수행하였다. Ti-30Ta-xZr 합금의 분극 거동 결과, 균질화 처리된 Ti-30Ta-15Zr 합금의 부동태 전류밀도가 다른 합금에 비해 낮았다.

Activated carbons (ACs) have been used as EDLC (electric double-layer capacitor) electrode materials due to their high specific area, stability, and ecological advantages. In order to prepare ACs with high density and crystallinity, coal tar pitch (CTP) was activated by $K_2CO_3$ and the textural and electrochemical properties of the obtained ACs were investigated. Although the CTP ACs formed by $K_2CO_3$ activation had much smaller specific surface area and pore volume than did the CTP ACs formed by KOH activation, their volumetric specific capacitance (F/cc) levels as electrode materials for EDLC were comparable due to their higher density and micro-crystallinity. Structural characterization and EDLC-electrode performance were studied with different activation conditions of $CTP/K_2CO_3$ ratio, activation temperature, and activation period.

A new lateral trench electrode IGBT with p+ diverter was Proposed to suppress latch-up of LTIGBT. The p+ diverter was placed between the anode and cathode electrode. The latch-up of LTEIGBT with a p+ diverter was effectively suppressed to sustain an anode voltage of 8.7V and a current density of 1453A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ while in the conventional LTIGBT, latch-up occurred at an anode current density of 540A/$\textrm{cm}^2$. And the forward blocking voltage of the proposed LTEIGBT with a p+ diverter was about 140V. That of the conventional LTIGBT of the same size was no more than 105V. When the gate voltage is applied 12V, the forward conduction currents of the Proposed LTEIGBT with a p+ diverter and the conventional LIGBT are 90mA and 70mA, respectively, at the same breakdown voltage of 150V.

In this study we verified if the electro-coagulation process can treat properly the nitrate and fluoride that are not removed well in the conventional small water treatment plants which usually employ chlorination and filtration only. As we gave a change of electrode material and gap-distance between electrodes, removal efficiency of the nitrate and fluoride was determined by electro-coagulation process which were equipped with aluminum and stainless steel (SUS304) electrodes. In addition, electrode durability was investigated by determination of electrodes mass change during the repetitive experiments. Removal efficiency was great when aluminum was used as an anode material. Nitrate removals increased as electric density and number of electrodes increased, but fluoride removal was less sensitive to both parameters than nitrate. After 10 minutes of contact time with the current density from $1{\times}10^{-3}$ to $3{\times}10^{-3}A/cm^{2}$, nitrate and fluoride concentration ranged from 9.2 to 1.2mg/L and from 0.02 to 0.01mg/L, which satisfied the regulation limits. Regardless of the repeating number of experiments, removal efficiency of both ions were almost similar and the change of electrode mass ranged within ${\pm}$0.5%, indicating that the loss of the electrode mass is not so much great under the limited circumstances.

Electrode impedances are measured to quantitatively characterize the electrode-electrolyte or cell-electrode interfaces. In the case of high-density microelectrode arrays(MEAs) that have been developed for brainmachine interface applications, the characterization process becomes a repeating and time-consuming task; a system that can perform the measurement and analysis in an automated fashion with accuracy and speed is required. However, due to the large number of channels, parasitic capacitance and off-capacitance components of the switching system become the major factors that decreased the accuracy for the measurement of high impedance microelectrodes. Here we investigated the implementation of automatic impedance measurement system with analyzing the causes of possible measurement-related problems in multichannel switching configuration. Based on our multi-channel measurement circuit model, we suggest solutions to the problems and introduce a novel impedance measurement scheme using electro-mechanical relays. The implemented measurement system could measure |Z| < 700 $k{\Omega}$ of impedance in - 10% errors, which can be widely applicable to high density neural recording MEAs.
