Technical advances in manufacturing techniques and applied technologies have been made for bi cell manufacture, and are currently being implemented in the areas of discrete electrode / bi cell assembly, and electrode / separator lamination. Not only have improvements been noted in the reliability of the mechanical assembly and the increase in yields and decrease in costs, battery electrical performance has also been enhanced thru these assembly techniques. Evidence has been shown that the lamination techniques can influence porosity and electrolyte dispersion, and therefore electrical performance and long term reliability of the cells.

In this study, a gel polymer electrolyte was prepared from urethane acrylate and its electrochemical performances were evaluated. And, $LiCoO_2/GPE/graphite$ cells were prepared and their performances depending on discharge currents and temperatures were evaluated. The precursor containing $5 vol\%$ curable mixture had a low viscosity relatively. Ionic conductivity of the gel polymer electrolyte at room temperature and $-20^{\circ}C$ was ca. $5.9\times10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}\;and\;1.7\times10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}$, respectively. GPE showed electrochemical stability up to potential of 4.5V vs. $Li/Li^+.LiCoO_2/GPE/graphite$ cell showed a good high-rate and a low-temperature performance.

In this study, nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ was coated on the surface of $LiFePO_4$ powders via a novel dry coating method. The influence of coated $LiFePO_4$ upon electrochemical behavior was discussed. Surface morphology characterization was achieved by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), clearly showing nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ on $LiFePO_4$ surfaces. Furthermore, it revealed that the $Al_2O_3$-coated $LiFePO_4$ cathode exhibited a distinct surface morphology. It was also found that the $Al_2O_3$ coating reduces capacity fading especially at high charge/discharge rates. Results from the cyclic voltammogram measurements (2.5-4.2 V) showed a significant decrease in both interfacial resistance and cathode polarization. This behavior implies that $Al_2O_3$ can prevent structural change of $LiFePO_4$ or reaction with the electrolyte on cycling. In addition, the $Al_2O_3$ coated $LiFePO_4$ compound showed highly improved area-specific impedance (ASI), an important measure of battery performance. From the correlation between these characteristics of bare and coated $LiFePO_4$, the role of $Al_2O_3$ coating played on the electrochemical performance of $LiFePO_4$ was probed.

This paper presents a simple and cost-effective stand-alone rapid battery charging system of 30kW for electric vehicles. The proposed system mainly consists of active front-end rectifier of neutral point clamped 3-level type and non-isolated bi-directional dc-dc converter of multi-phase interleaved half-bridge topology with coupled inductors. The charging system is designed to operate for both lithium-polymer and lithium-ion batteries. The complete charging sequence is made up of three sub-interval operating modes; pre-charging mode, constant-current mode, and constant-voltage mode. The pre-charging mode employs the staircase shaped current profile to accomplish shorter charging time while maintaining the reliable operation of the battery. The proposed system is able to reach the full-charge state within less than 16min for the battery capacity of 8kWh by supplying the charging current of 67A. The optimal discharging algorithm for Vehicle to the Grid (V2G) operation has been adopted to maintain the discharging current of 1C. Owing to the simple and compact power conversion scheme, the proposed solution has superior module-friendly mechanical structure which is absolutely required to realize flexible power expansion capability in a very high-current rapid charging system.

The charging system is designed to operate for both lithium-polymer and lithium-ion batteries. The complete charging sequence is made up of three sub-interval operating modes; pre-charging mode, constant-current mode, and constant-voltage mode. Each mode is operated according to battery states: voltage, current and State of Charging (SOC). The proposed system is able to reach the full-charge state within less than 16min for the battery capacity of 8kWh by supplying the charging current of 67A. The optimal discharging algorithm for Vehicle to the Grid (V2G) operation has been adopted to maintain the discharging current of 1C. Owing to the simple and compact power conversion scheme, the proposed solution has superior module-friendly mechanical structure which is absolutely required to realize flexible power expansion capability in a very high-current rapid charging system. Experiment waveforms confirm the proposed functionality of the charging system.

We investigated the cycling behavior of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ electrode in a cross-linked gel polymer electrolyte based on non-flammable ionic liquid consisting of 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide and vinylene carbonate. The $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ electrodes in ionic liquid-based gel polymer electrolytes exhibited reversible cycling behavior with good capacity retention. Cycling data and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses revealed that the optimum content of the cross-linking agent necessary to ensure both acceptable initial discharge capacity and good capacity retention was about 8 wt %.

분자량이 각각 300(PEGMA300) 및 1100(PEGMA1100) g $mol^{-1}$인 PEGMA와 합성된 $BF_3LiMA$ 리튬염을 이용하여 다양한 조성의 고분자전해질을 제조하고 전기화학적 특성을 평가하였다. 흥미롭게도 AC-impedance 측정법에 의한 상온 이온전도도는 분자량 $300g\;mol^{-1}$로 합성된 액체 고분자전해질에서 $8.54{\times}10^{-7}S\;cm^{-1}$의 값이 얻어진 반면, PEGMA1100으로 합성된 고체상태의 고분자전해질에서 최대 14배 이상 높은 $1.22{\times}10^{-5}S\;cm^{-1}$가 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과는 PEGMA에 ethylene oxide 단위가 5개인 $300g\;mol^{-1}$보다 23개인 $1100g\;mol^{-1}$에서 리튬이온의 배위가 쉽게 일어나기 때문으로 해석된다. 또한 양이온 수율 측정결과 리튬메탈과 $BF_3$간의 반응으로 인해 0.6의 비교적 낮은 값이 나왔지만 초기 3000초 동안에는 0.9 이상의 값이 관찰되어 단일이온 전도체의 특징을 보여주었다.

올리빈 구조를 가지는 $LiFePO_4$ 양극활물질은 낮은 가격과 안정성으로 인해 리튬 이차전지 시장에서 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 그러나 낮은 이온 전도도와 작동전압 때문에 상업적으로 이용되기엔 사용분야의 응용에 제한이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 철 양이온을 망간 양이온과 같은 전이금속으로 치환함으로써 작동전압을 높이는 연구가 시행되고 있다. 또한 미세구조의 나노화를 통해 리튬 이온의 확산거리를 짧게 만들어 줌으로써 이온 전도도를 높여주는 연구도 진행 중이다. 그래서 이번 연구에서는 이온의 확산거리를 짧게 만들어 주기 위해 표면적을 넓힐 수 있는 전기방사를 이용해 물질을 합성하였고, 이를 확인하기 위하여 시차주사현미경 관측을 통해 균일한 나노 섬유의 형성을 확인하였다. 또한 결정구조를 관찰하기 위해 X-선 회절 분석을 하였는데, 다른 상의 관찰 없이 단일상의 결정구조를 얻음을 확인하였다. 전기화학적 성능 확인방법으로는 충방전 테스트기를 이용하여 초기 충방전 곡선을 분석하였고, 계면저항 및 리튬 양이온의 확산을 알아보기 위해 임피던스 측정을 실행하였다.
