[ $Li_+$ ]를 기반으로 하는 비수용액 전해질에서 Prussian blue가 degradation이 없이 구동할 수 있도록 소재를 design하고 제조하여 전기화학적 변색특성을 연구하였다. Prussian blue는 ITO가 코팅되어 있는 유리판위에 일정전류-전착법으로 코팅을 했고, 이 때 사용된 코팅 용액은 $FeCl_3,\;K_3Fe(CN)_6$을 deionized water에 녹이고, HCl, KCl, LiCl을 각각 넣었다. 전기화학적 변색특성을 비교하기 위해 continuous와 pulse potential cycle 하는 동안 transmittance 변화를 in-situ He-Ne laser를 이용하여 측정하였고, electroactive layer thickness를 통해 degradation된 정도를 실험하였다.

본 연구에서는 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터를 사용하여 Cr/Co/Al-Ox/Co/Ni-Fe 다층박막에 다양한 두께의 Cr 하지층을 삽입함에 따른 자기적 특성 및 전기적 특성에 관하여 연구하였다. 3 nm 두께의 Cr 하지층 증착시 자기저항비의 변화는 관찰할 수 없었고 적정한 Cr두께가 증가함에 따라 Co의 보자력이 크게 증가되었다 또한, 산화시간이 길수록 두 강자성층간에 보자력 차이 및 절연층의 저항이 점차 증가하였는데, 이는 산화시간에 따라 상부층 계면의 평탄성의 증가에 기인하는 것으로 생각되며 TEM을 통하여 확인할 수 있었다. Cr 하지층 유무에 관계없이 최고 자기저항비가 나타나는 절연층의 산화시간은 60~70초로 비슷하였지만 Cr 두께가 증가할수록 자기저항비는 감소하였다. 이는 전극간 계면의 거칠기의 증가로 인해 미반응 Al의 잔존 확률이 상대적으로 커짐에 따라 터널 전자의 산란이 증가함으로써 나타나는 것으로 생각된다. 이러한 결과로 Cr하지층의 두께는 3 nm로 고정하였으며 하지층의 증착 및 적정산화를 통하여 두 강자성층간에 큰 보자력 차이를 유도할 수 있었다. 이는 재현성에 있어서 가장 큰 문제점을 지닌 TMR 소자에 매우 긍정적인 해결방안을 제시할 수 있게 된다.̄

본 연구에서는 에너지 밀도가 큰 초고용량 캐패시터를 제작하기 위한 기초 연구로서 활성탄소섬유의 물성과 유기 전해질의 특성이 초고용량 캐패시터의 전기화학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 유기성 전해질의 경우는 이온의 크기가 수용성 전해질 보다 훨씬 크기 때문에 탄소전극의 세공크기에 많은 영향을 받으며, 용량을 발현할 수 있는 유효세공의 크기가 커야 한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 혼합용매를 이용한 전해액의 조성은 큰 비축전용량과 빠른 충전속도, 그리고 낮은 ESR 및 방전전류의 세기에 대한 높은 비축전용량 유지성 등의 우수한 충방전 특성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었고, 전해질의 높은 이온전도도가 용량발현 및 자가방전 특성에 큰기여를 하고 있으며, 전해질 이온의 크기는 충전속도에 많은 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Influences of sustain voltage on wall charges and wall voltages are experimentally investigated in surface AC plasma display panels(AC-PDPs), in which electrode gap and width are $80\;{\mu}m$ and $270\;{\mu}m$, respectively. The filling gas is Ne-Xe gas mixture, and total pressures 300 Torr. Also it is found that the more amount of Xe mixing ratio makes the less wall charge and voltage for sustain voltage ranged from 140 V to 222 V. The response time has been delayed by adding a small amount of Xe to Ne in comparison with that without Xe. It is also found that the wall charge and voltage are reduced by adding a small amount of Xe to Ne in comparison with those without Xe.

Carbon supported electrocatalysts are commonly used as electrode materials for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs). These kinds of electrocatalysts provide large surface area and sufficient electrical conductivity. The support of typical PEM fuel cell catalysts has been a traditional conductive type of carbon black. However, even though the carbon particles conduct electrons, there is still significant portion of Pt that is isolated from the external circuit and the PEM, resulting in a low Pt utilization. Herein, new types of carbon materials to effectively utilize the Pt catalyst are being evaluated. Carbon nanofiber/activated carbon fiber (CNF/ACF) composite with multifunctional surfaces were prepared through catalytic growth of CNFs on ACFs. Nickel nitrate was used as a precursor of the catalyst to synthesize carbon nanofibers(CNFs). CNFs were synthesized by pyrolysising $CH_4$ using catalysts dispersed in acetone and ACF(activated carbon fiber). The as-prepared samples were characterized with transmission electron microscopy(TEM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM). In TEM image, carbon nanofibers were synthesized on the ACF to form a three-dimensional network. Pt/CNF/ACF was employed as a catalyst for PEMFC. As the ratio of prepared catalyst to commercial catalyst was changed from 0 to 50%, the performance of the mixture of 30 wt% of Pt/CNF/ACF and 70wt% of Pt/C commercial catalyst showed better perfromance than that of 100% commercial catalyst. The unique structure of CNF can supply the significant site for the stabilization of Pt particles. CNF/ACF is expected to be promising support to improve the performance in PEMFC.

The presently commercialized lithium-ion batteries use layer structured LiCoO₂ cathodes. Because of the high cost and toxicity of cobalt, an intensive search for new cathode materials has been underway in recent years. Recently, a concept of a one-to-one solid state mixture of LiNO₂ and LiMnO₂, i.e., Li[Ni/sub 0.5/Mn/sub 0.5/]O₂, was adopted by Ohzuku and Makimura to overcome the disadvantage of LiNiO₂ and LiMnO₂. Li[Ni/sub 0.5/Mn/sub 0.5/]O₂ has the -NaFeO₂ structure, which is characteristic of the layered LiCoO₂ and LiNiO₂ structures and shows excellent cycleability with no indication of spinel formation during electrochemical cycling. Layered Li[Ni/sub x/Co/sub 1-2x/Mn/sub x/]O₂ (x = 0.5 and 0.475) materials with high homogeneity and crystallinity were synthesized using a mechanical alloying method. The Li[Ni/sub 0.475/Co/sub 0.05/Mn/sub 0.475/]O₂ electrode delivers a high discharge capacity of 187 mAh/g between 2.8 and 4.6 V at a high current density of 0.3 mA/㎠(30 mA/g) with excellent cycleability. The charge/discharge and differential capacity vs. voltage studies of the Li[Ni/sub x/Co/sub 1-2x/Mn/sub x/]O₂ (x = 0.5 and 0.475) materials showed only one redox peak up to 50 cycles, which indicates that structural phase transitions are not occurred during electrochemical cycling. The magnitude of the diffusion coefficients of lithium ions for Li[Ni/sub x/Co/sub 1-2x/Mn/sub x/]O₂(x = 0.5 and 0.475) are around 10/sup -9/ ㎠/s measured by the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT).

막결합 축전식 탈염에 적용하기 위하여 불균질 이온교환막을 제조하였다. 이온교환수지 분말과 LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene) 혼합물을 압착시켜 불균질 이온교환막을 제조하였다. 제조한 막의 막 특성 분석과 MCDI 탈염실험을 실시하였다. 이온교환수지의 함량이 증가할수록 막의 전기저항은 감소하였고 함수율은 증가하였다. 그러나 막의 이온선택성을 나타내는 이온 수송수는 상업용 균질 막과 유사한 성능을 나타냈다. MCDI 탈염실험 결과 탈염량은 불균질 막의 높은 전기저항으로 인해 균질 막을 이용한 셀의 탈염량의 90% 수준을 나타냈다. 불균질 이온교환막은 균질 막에 비해 탈염성능은 다소 감소하였지만 제조가 간편하고 가격이 저렴하여 MCDI에 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

Aluminum alloys have poor corrosion resistance compared to the pure aluminum due to the additive elements. Thus, anodizing technology artificially generating thick oxide films are widely applied nowadays in order to improve corrosion resistance. Anodizing is one of the surface modification techniques, which is commercially applicable to a large surface at a low price. However, most studies up to now have focused on its commercialization with hardly any research on the assessment and improvement of the physical characteristics of the anodized films. Therefore, this study aims to select the optimum temperature of sulfuric electrolyte to perform excellent corrosion resistance in the harsh marine environment through electrochemical experiment in the sea water upon generating porous films by variating the temperatures of sulfuric electrolyte. To fabricate uniform porous film of 5083 aluminum alloy, we conducted electro-polishing under the 25 V at $5^{\circ}C$ condition for three minutes using mixed solution of ethanol (95 %) and perchloric (70 %) acid with volume ratio of 4:1. Afterward, the first step surface modification was performed using sulfuric acid as an electrolyte where the electrolyte concentration was maintained at 10 vol.% by using a jacketed beaker. For anode, 5083 aluminum alloy with thickness of 5 mm and size of $2cm{\times}2cm$ was used, while platinum electrode was used for cathode. The distance between the two was maintained at 3 cm. Afterward, the irregular oxide film that was created in the first step surface modification was removed. For the second step surface modification process (identical to the step 1), etching was performed using mixture of chromic acid (1.8 wt.%) and phosphoric acid (6 wt.%) at $60^{\circ}C$ temperature for 30 minutes. Anodic polarization test was performed at scan rate of 2 mV/s up to +3.0 V vs open circuit potential in natural seawater. Surface morphology was compared using 3D analysis microscope to observe the damage behavior. As a result, the case of surface modification presented a significantly lower corrosion current density than that without modification, indicating excellent corrosion resistance.

Nanocomposites of reduced graphene oxide and manganese (II,III) oxide can be synthesized by the freeze-drying process of the mixed colloidal suspension of graphene oxide and manganese oxide, and the subsequent heat-treatment. The calcined reduced graphene oxide-manganese (II,III) oxide nanocomposites are X-ray amorphous, suggesting the formation of homogeneous and disordered mixture without any phase separation. The reduction of graphene oxide to reduced graphene oxide upon the heat-treatment is evidenced by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy. Field emission-scanning electronic microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry clearly demonstrate the formation of porous structure by the house-of-cards type stacking of reduced graphene oxide nanosheets and the homogeneous distribution of manganese ions in the nanocomposites. According to Mn K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy, manganese ions in the calcined nanocomposites are stabilized in octahedral symmetry with mixed Mn oxidation state of Mn(II)/Mn(III). The present reduced graphene oxide-manganese oxide nanocomposites show characteristic pseudocapacitance behavior superior to the pristine manganese oxide, suggesting their applicability as electrode material for supercapacitors.
