All solid state thin film batteries with two types of cell structure, Pt / $LiCoO_2$ / LiPON / Cu and Pt / $LiCoO_2$ / LiPON / $LiCoO_2$ / Cu, are prepared and their electrochemical performances are investigated to evaluate the effect of $LiCoO_2$ interlayer at the interface of LiPON / Cu. The crystallinity of the deposited $LiCoO_2$ thin films is confirmed by XRD and Raman analysis. The crystalline $LiCoO_2$ cathode thin film is obtained and $LiCoO_2$ as the interlayer appears to be amorphous. The surface morphology of Cu current collector after cycling of the batteries is observed by AFM. The presence of a 10 nm-thick layer of $LiCoO_2$ at the interface of LiPON / Cu enhances the interfacial adhesion and reduces the interfacial resistance. As a result, Li plating / stripping at the interface of LiPON / Cu during charge/discharge reaction takes place more uniformly on Cu current collector, while without the interlayer of $LiCoO_2$ at the interface of LiPON / Cu, the Li plating / stripping is localized on current collector. The thin film batteries with the interlayer of $LiCoO_2$ at the interface of LiPON / Cu exhibits enhanced initial coulombic efficiency, reversible capacity and cycling stability. The thickness of the anode current collector Cu also appears to be crucial for electrochemical performances of all solid state thin film batteries.

It was studied that the effect of the mixing materials and the mole ratios on electrochemical properties of LiMn$_2$O$_4$LiMn$_2$O$_4$is prepared by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$ and MnO$_2$(EMD or CMD) and heating at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 36h. We obtained properties of crystal structure through X-ray diffraction. LiMn$_2$O was reversible at 4.5V~3.0V and displayed two reduction and oxidation. Optimum synthesis results were obtained by reacting with LiOH.$H_2O$ and MnO$_2$(EMD) at mole ratio 1:2.

In this article, we report the effect of blended cathode materials on the performance of all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASLBs) with oxide-based organic/inorganic hybrid electrolytes. LiFePO₄ material is good candidates as cathode material in PEO-based solid electrolytes because of their low operating potential of 3.4 V; however, LiFePO₄ suffers from low electric conductivity and low Li ion diffusion rate across the LiFePO₄/FePO₄ interface. Particularly, monoclinic Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃ (LVP) is a well-known high-power-density cathode material due to its rapid ionic diffusion properties. Therefore, the structure, cycling stability, and rate performance of the blended LiFePO₄/Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃ cathode material in ASLBs with oxidebased inorganic/organic-hybrid electrolytes are investigated by using powder X-ray diffraction analysis, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller sorption experiments, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and galvanostatic measurements.

고상반응법에 의한 제조한 ZnGa$_2$O$_4$형광체에 Li 및 Tm 원소를 도핑함에 따른 발광특성을 조사하였다. 254nm 여기 하에서, 환원 처리된 ZnGa$_2$O$_4$형광체는 245nm에서 흡수피크와 380nm에서 발광피크를 나타내며, 이는 스피넬 구조에서 Ga$^{3+}$ 이온의 $^4$T$_2$$\longrightarrow$$^4$A$_2$천이에 기인한다. ZnGa$_2$O$_4$형광체에 있어서 Li 및 Tm을 도핑했을 경우가 도핑하지 않은 시료에 비해 발광강도 및 색순도가 개선되었으며, Li 및 Tm을 각각 0.1 mol, 0.01 mol 첨가했을 때 가장 우수한 발광강도 및 색순도 특성을 보였다.

The present article is concerned with the overview of the chemically/surface modified cubic spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ as a cathode electrode far lithium ion secondary batteries. Firstly, this article presented a comprehensive survey of the cubic spinel structure and its correlated electrochemical behaviour of $LiMn_2O_4$. Subsequently, the various kinds of the chemically/surface modified $LiMn_2O_4$ and their electrochemical characteristics were discussed in detail. Finally, this article reviewed our recent research works published on the mechanism of lithium transport through the chemically/surface modified $Li_{1-\delta}Mn_2O_4$ electrode from the kinetic view point by the analyses of the experimental potentiostatic current transients and ac-impedance spectra.

In this study, a new LTCC material using $ZnWO_4$-LiF system was attempted with respect to use as a capacitor layer in Front-End Module. Pure $ZnWO_4$ must be sintered above $1050^{\circ}C$ in order to obtain up to 98% of full density. It's measured dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 15.5, 74380GHz, and $-70ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. LiF addition resulted in an liquid phase formation at $810^{\circ}C$ due to interaction between $ZnWO_4$ and LiF. Therefore $ZnWO_4$ with 0.5~1.5wt% LiF could be densified at $850^{\circ}C$. Addition of LiF slightly lowered the dielectric constant from 15.5 to 14.2~15. In the given LiF addition range, the sintering shrinkage increased with increasing LiF content. $Q{\times}fo$ value, however, decreased with increasing LiF content(or increasing densification). This is originated from the interaction between the liquid phase and $ZnWO_4$ and inhomogeneity of grain morphology.

$LiFePO_4-C$ cathode materials were prepared by hydrothermal reaction and ball-milling. In order to enhance the electronic conductivity of $LiFePO_4$, 10% of acetylene black was added. During the ball-milling, different revolutions per minute (100, 200 and 300 rpm) was carried out. The structural and morphological performance of $LiFePO_4-C$ powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The X-ray diffraction results demonstrated that $LiFePO_4-C$ powders had an orthorhombic olivine-type structure with a space group of Pnma. $LiFePO_4-C$ batteries were characterized electrochemically by charge/discharge experiments. The charge/discharge experiments indicated that $LiFePO_4-C$/Li batteries by 300 rpm of the ball-milling exhibited the best electrochemical performance with the discharge capacity of 126mAh/g at a discharge rate of $0.1mA/cm^2$.

$LiMn_2O_4$ with mesoporous hollow sphere shape was synthesized by precipitation method with silica template. The synthesized $LiMn_2O_4$ has nanosized first particle and mesoporous hollow sphere shape. Silica template was removed by chemical etching method using NaOH solution. When the concentration of NaOH solution was increased, first particle size of manganese oxide was decrease and confirmed mesoporous hollow shpere shape. X-ray diffraction(XRD) patterns revealed that the synthesized samples has spinel structure with Fd3m space group. In case the ratio of silica and maganese salt increased, the size of first particles was decreased. The tetragoanal $LiMn_2O_4$ with micron size was synthesized at ratio of silica and manganese salt over 1 : 9. The prepared samples were assembled as cathode materials of Li-ion battery with 2032 type coin cell and their electrochemical properties are examined by charge-discharge and cyclic performance. Electrochemical measurements show that the nano-size particles had lower capacity than micron-size particles. But, cyclic performance of nano-size particles had better than that of micron-size particles.

The electrolytic reduction of spent oxide fuel involves the liberation of oxygen in a molten LiCl electrolyte, which is a chemically aggressive environment that is very corrosive for typical structural materials. So, it is essential to choose the optimum material for the process equipment handling molten salt. In this study, corrosion behavior of Haynes 263, 75, and Inconel X-750, 718 in molten salt of $LiCl-Li_{2}O$ under oxidation atmosphere was investigated at $650^{\circ}C\;for\;72\sim360$ hours. At $3\;wt\%\;of\;Li_{2}O$, Haynes 263 alloy showed the highest corrosion resistance among the examined alloys, and up to $8\;wt\%\;of\;Li_{2}O$, Haynes 75 exhibited the highest corrosion resistance. Corrosion products were formed $Li(Ni,Co)O_2,\;LiNiO_2\;and\;LiTiO_2\;and\;Cr_{2}O_3$ on Haynes 263, $Cr_{2}O_3,\;NiFe_{2}O_4,\;LiNiO_2,\;Li_{2}NiFe_{2}O_4,\;Li_{2}Ni_{8}O_10$ and Ni on Haynes 75, $Cr_{2}O_3,\;(Al,Nb,Ti)O_2,\;NiFe_{2}O_4,\;and\;Li_{2}NiFe_{2}O_4$ on Inconel X-750 and $Cr_{2}O_3,\;NiFe_{2}O_4\;and\;CrNbO_4$ on Inconel 718, respectively. Haynes 263 showed local corrosion behavior and Haynes 75, Inconel X-750, 718 showed uniform corrosion behavior.
