Simulated waste-derived synthesis gas has been tested for hydrogen production through water-gas shift (WGS) reaction over supported Cu catalysts prepared by co-precipitation method. $CeO_2$, $ZrO_2$, MgO, and $Al_2O_3$ were employed as supports for WGS reaction in this study. $Cu-CeO_2$ catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity as well as 100% $CO_2$ selectivity for WGS in severe conditions ($GHSV=40,206h^{-1}$ and CO concentration = 38.0%). In addition, $Cu-CeO_2$ catalyst showed stable CO conversion for 20h without detectable catalyst deactivation. The high activity and stability of $Cu-CeO_2$ catalyst are correlated to its easier reducibility, high oxygen mobility/storage capacity of $CeO_2$.

Bismuth thin films were prepared on glass substrate with RF magnetron sputtering and effects of substrate temperature on surface morphology and their electrical transport properties were investigated. Grain growth of bismuth after nucleation and the onset of coalescense of grains at 393 K were observed with field emission secondary electron microscopy. Continuous thin films could not be obtained above 473 K because of grain segregation and island formation. Hall effect measurements showed that substrate heating yields the decrease of carrier density and the increase of mobility. Resistivity of bismuth film has its minimum (about 0.7 x 10/sup -3/ Ωcm) in range of 403～433 K. Annealing of bismuth films deposited at room temperature was carried out in a radiation furnace with flowing hydrogen gas. The change of resistivity was not significant due to cancellation of the decrease of carrier density and the increase of mobility. The abrupt change of electrical properties of film annealed above 523 K was found to be caused by partial oxidation of bismuth layer in x-ray diffraction analysis.

The present and future cities are expanding, and the noise and environmental pollution in cities are getting worse day by day, causing saturation of road and subway traffic. As a result, citizens are spending a great deal of time and money. The use of the sky as a measure to solve this problem has become a reality. However, airplanes that require airstrips and noisy helicopters are difficult to use in cities. As a solution, PAVs and UAMs that generate low noise and enable vertical takeoff and landing using electric energy, motor, hybrid, and hydrogen energy, are attracting attention, with its practicality being promoted in many countries. The development of urban environment and technology has led to the emergence of Personal Air Vehicle (PAV), Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL), and Urban Air Mobility (UAM) for shipping. Though currently at the level of testing, general commercialization of these air transport means is expected in the next five to fifteen years. This study suggests a plan on the application of human factors to the introduction of PAV and UAM.

The properties of Al-doped ZnO (AZO) films were investigated as a function of H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratio using an AZO (2 wt% Al2O3) ceramic target in a radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering system. The deposition process was done at 200 ℃ and in 2 × 10-2Torr working pressure and with various ratios of H2/(Ar + H2) gas. During the AZO film deposition process, partial H2 gas affected the AZO film characteristics. The electron resistivity (~ 9.21 × 10-4 Ωcm) was lowest and mobility (~17.8 ㎠/Vs) was highest in AZO films when the H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratio was 2.5%. When the H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratio was increased above 2.5%, the electron resistivity increased and mobility decreased with increasing H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratio in AZO films. The carrier concentration increased with increasing H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratio from 0% to 7.5%. This phenomenon was explained by reaction of hydrogen and oxygen and additional formation of oxygen vacancy. The average optical transmission in the visible light wavelength region over 90% and an orientation of the deposition was [002] orientation for AZO films grown with all H2/(Ar + H2) gas ratios.

이온흡착, 전위차적정, 전기이동법 등을 이용 하여 kaolinite 현탄액의 전기 화학적 성질을 연구하였다. 0.001M 또는 0.1M NaCl 용액중에서 kaolinite로부터 용해되어 나온 알루미늄 이온이 $Na^+$ 및 $Cl^-$과 같이 지시이온으로서 kaolinite 표면에 흡착되는 것을 고려할 때 kaolinite는 pH independent + 및 -전하와 pH dependent + 및 -전하를 모두 가지고 있었다. 증류수와 0.001M NaCl 용액중에서 kaolinite 입자의 전기이동은 전기 이동셀(cell)에서 측정이 시작된 후 시간경과(전기이동 측정시간)에 관계없이 일정한 이동성을 나타냈으나 0.1M NaCl 용액중에서 kaolinite 입자는 등전점 (pH 4.7) 이상에서는 측정시간이 경과함에 따라 전하가 -에서 +로 변화하였다. 즉 최초 10초 동안에는 -전하를 가지며 그 후에는 +전하를 띠면서 전기이동 속도가 단계적으로 증가하게 되는데 약 10분 후에는 일정하게 되었다. 이것은 아마도 제일 바깥쪽 Octahedral layer 표면의 aluminol group의 부분들이 높은 이온 강도의 전해질 용액중에서 분해되어 복잡한 전기이중층(electric double layer)을 이루고 이것이 전기장 내에서 이동할 때 표면으로부터 counter이온들이 점차 떨어져 나가는 과정에서 전하(net charge)의 변화가 생기는 것으로 생각된다.

Autothermal reforming(ATR) processes of hydrocarbon liquids such as diesel fuels are spotlighted as methods to produce hydrogen for Fuel cell. However, the use of heavy hydrocarbons as feedstocks for hydrogen production causes some problems which increase the catalyst deactivation by the carbon deposition. Coking can be inhibited by increasing the water dissociation on the catalyst surface. This results in catastrophic failure of whole system. Performance degradation of diesel autothermal reforming leads to increase of undesirable hydrocarbons at reformed gases and subsequently decrease the performance. In this study, perovskite-based catalysts were investigated as alternatives to substitute the noble metal catalyst for the ATR of diesel. The investigated perovskite structure was based on LaCrO3. and metals were added at the A-site to enhance oxygen ion mobility, transition metals were doped on the B-site to enhance the reformation. Substituted Lanthanum chromium perovskite were made by aqueous combustion synthesis, which can produce high surface area. And for the homogeneous fuel supply, we made ultrasonic injection system for reforming. We compared durability of evaporation system and ultrasonic system for fuel injection.

In this work, the effects of hydrogen reduction on the microstructure and thermoelectric properties of $(GeTe)_{0.85}(AgSbTe_2)_{0.15}$ (TAGS-85) were studied by a combination of gas atomization and spark plasma sintering. The crystal structure and microstructure of TAGS-85 were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The oxygen content of both powders and bulk samples were found to decrease with increasing reduction temperature. The grain size gradually increased with increasing reduction temperature due to adhesion of fine grains in a temperature range of 350 to $450^{\circ}C$. The electrical resistivity was found to increase with reduction temperature due to a decrease in carrier concentration. The Seebeck coefficient decreased with increasing reduction temperature and was in good agreement with the carrier concentration and carrier mobility. The maximum power factor, $3.3{\times}10^{-3}W/mK^2$, was measured for the non-reduction bulk TAGS-85 at $450^{\circ}C$.

Photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) is one of the attractive ways to produce clean and renewable energy. However, solar to hydrogen production via PEC system generally requires high external bias, because of material's innate electronic band potential relative to hydrogen reduction potential and/or charge separation issue. For spontaneous photo-water splitting, here, we design dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) and their monolithic tandem cell incorporated with a $BiVO_4$ photoanode. $BiVO_4$ has high conduction band edge potential and suitable band gap (2.4eV) to absorb visible light. To achieve efficient $BiVO_4$ photoanode system, electron and hole mobility should be improved, and we demonstrate a tandem cell in which $BiVO_4/WO_3$ film is connected to cobalt complex based DSSC.

Characteristics of microcrystalline-silicon thin-films deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition (PECVD) method were studied. There were optimum values of RF power density and $H_2$ dilution ratio $(H_2/(SiH_4+H_2))$; maximum grain size of about 35 nm was obtained at substrate temperature of 250 $^{\circ}C$ with RF power density of 1.1 W/$cm^2$ and $H_2$ dilution ratio of 0.91. Larger grain was obtained with higher substrate temperature up to 350 $^{\circ}C$. Grain size dependence on RF power density and $H_2$ dilution ratio could be explained by etching effects of hydrogen ions and changes of species of reactive precursors on growing surface. Surface-mobility activation of reactive precursors by temperature could be a reason of grain-size dependence on the substrate temperature. Microcrystalline-silicon thin-films that could be used for flat-panel electronics such as active-matrix organic-light-emitting-diodes are expected to be fabricated successfully using these results.

The fuel cell in fuel cell electric vehicle utilizes oxygen in the atmosphere, which requires the use of an air cleaner system to minimize the intake of harmful pollutants. To estimate the performance of the air cleaner system, the pressure drop between the filter inlet and outlet is used under the rated air flow condition. In this study, the effect of sensor error in this air cleaner testing is experimentally carried out. It is found that the errors of the temperature sensor does not significantly affect the estimation of pressure drop. However, in the case of the pressure sensor, 5% sensor error results in the error of pressure drop estimation by 3%. Therefore, it is recommended that the measurement accuracy of the pressure sensor mounted in test system should be maintained at less than 5%.
