  • Manganese-activated zincgallate (Zn1-xMnxGa2O4) phosphor as a green phosphor was readily prepared by coprecipitation in aqueous basic solution of metal salts. The obtained product converted to amorphous zincgallate even at 300℃, followed by crystallization at 1000 ℃. The pyrolyzed phosphor showed fine particle, then reduction treatment at 900 ℃ changed into homogeneous shape with slight grain growth(particle size less than 0.5 mm). The photoluminescence characteristics of the zincgallates have been investigated as a function of dopant concentrations, reducing atmospheres and temperatures. Under UV excitation the phosphors displayed the highest green emission efficiency at 504 nm when the specimen oxidized at 1000 ℃ was reduced at 900 ℃ in a mild hydrogen atmosphere (97% N2, 3% H2) with a flow rate of 100 ml/min.

  • Recently, many researches on the high-voltage 5 V class cathode material have focused on $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$, where $Mn^{3+}$ in the existing $LiMn_2O_4 (Li[Mn^{3+}][Mn^{4+}]O_4)$ is replaced by $Ni^{2+}(Li[Ni^{2+}]_{0.5}[Mn^{4+}]_{1.5}O_4)$ in order to utilize $Ni^{2+}/Ni^{4+}$ redox reaction in the 5V region. The partial substitution of Mn in $LiMn_2O_4$ for other transition metal element, $LiM_yMn_{1-y}O_4$(M=Cr, Al, Ni, Fe, Co, Cu, Ga etc) is known as a good solution to overcome the problems associated with $LiMn_2O_4$ like the gradual capacity fading. In this study, we synthesized $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ through a mechanochemical process and investigated its morphological, crystallographic and electrochemical characteristics. The results showed that 4 V peaks had been found in the cyclic volammograms of the synthesized powders due to the existence of $Mn^{3+}$ from the incomplete substitution of $Ni^{2+}$ for $Mn^{3+}$ implying that the mechanochemical activation alone was not good enough to synthesize an exact stoichiometric compound of $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$. The synthetic condition of mechanochemical process, such as type of starting materials, ball-mill and calcination condition was optimized for the best electrochemical performance.
