In this study, abiotic transformation of 1-naphthol(1-NP) via oxidative-coupling reaction and its reaction products were investigated in the presence of Mn oxides. The reaction products were characterized for their relative polarity using solvent extraction experiment and reverse-phase HPLC, and for structure using CCMS and LC/MS, and for absorption characteristics using UV-Vis spectrometry. The reaction products present in aqueous phase were more polar than parent naphthol and comprised of 1,4-naphthoquinon(1,4-NPQ) and oligomers such as dimers and trimers. Hydrophilic component present in water phase after solvent$(CH_2Cl_2)$ extractions was identified as naphthol polymerized products having molecular weight(m/z) ranging from 400 to 2,000, and showed similar UV-Vis. absorption characteristics to that of foil fulvic acid. Transformation of 1,4-NPQ, which is non-reactive to Mn oxide, to the polymerized products via cross-coupling reaction in the presence of 1-NP was also verified. In this experimental conditions(20.5 mg/L, 1-NP, 2.5 g/L $MnO_2$, pH 5), the transformation of 1-NP into the oligomers and polymerized products were about 83% of initial 1-NP concentrations, and more than 30% of the reaction products was estimated to be water insoluble fractions, not extracted by $H_2O$ methanol. Results from this study suggest that Mn oxide-mediated treatment of naphthol contaminated soils can achieve risk reduction through the formation of oligomers md polymer precipitation.

An indium-tin oxide (ITO) coated spinel manganese oxide (${LiMn_2}{O_4}$, LMO) is prepared and its high-temperature ($55^{\circ}C$) cycle performance and rate capability are examined. A severe electrolyte decomposition and film deposition is observed on the un-coated ${LiMn_2}{O_4}$ cathode, which leads to a significant electrode polarization and capacity fading. Such an electrode polarization is, however, greatly reduced for the ITO-coated (> 2 mol%) LMO cathode, which leads to an improved cycle performance. This can be rationalized by a suppression of electrolyte decomposition, which is in turn indebted to a decrease in the direct contact area between LMO and electrolyte. The suppression of film deposition on the ITO-coated LMO cathode is confirmed by infra-red spectroscopy. The rate capability is also improved by the surface coating, which may be resulted from a suppression of resistive film deposition and high electric conductivity of ITO itself.

The effect of Co dopant on the (La, Sr)MnO3 cathode was investigated. La2Zr2O7 and SrZrO3 were formed as the reaction products between YSZ and LSMC. The reactivity of LSMC with YSZ increased with increasing Co content. However, the cathodic polarization resistance decreased with increasing Co doping. Therefore, doping Co at Mn site in the (La, Sr)MnO3 cathode was effective on controlling the polarization resistance of the cathode. The polarization property of LSMC-YSZ composite(60 wt%: 40 wt%) cathode was better than that of LSMC single cathode.

Manganese (Mn) nodules in the Arctic Sea have been founded in the Kara Sea and Barents Sea, but mineral and chemical compositions have been rarely investigated. In this study, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of Mn nodules obtained during the Arctic Expedition ARA07C in northern East Siberian Sea were identified, and then genesis of Mn nodules were estimated by using these characteristics. Main manganese oxide minerals constituting the manganese nodule were buserite, birnessite, and vernadite. The Mn nodules generally represent radiated and massive texture, and the layered texture was developed restrictively. The radiated texture, main feature of the manganese nodule in the East Siberian Sea, is mainly composed of cuspate-globular microstructure. Compared with the Mn nodules in Pacific and Indian Oceans, Mn nodules of the East Siberian Sea are abundant in Mn, but Fe is too scarce. There was no difference in the chemical composition and microstructures between outer and inner part of nodule. Therefore, nodules are most likely to have only one genesis during their growth, and all of nodules indicate the diagenetic in $Mn-Fe-(Cu+Ni+Co){\times}10$ ternary diagram. It is considered that the manganese nodules in the East Siberian Sea are characterized by high Mn contents because manganese contents in the Arctic Ocean were mainly resulted from river or coastal erosion and most of them are trapped in the Arctic Ocean.

MnAPSO-34 and Mn-impregnated SAPO-34(Mn-SAPO-34) sample were prepared with various manganese contents and studied by electron spin resonance(ESR) and electron spin echo modulation(ESEM). Electron spin echo modulation analysis of 0.07mo1 ％ Mn(relative to p) in MnAPSO-34 with adsorbed D$_{2}$O shows two deuteriums at 0.26 nm and two at 0.36 nm from Mn. This suggests that two waters hydrate an MnO$_{4}$ configuration with a D-O bond orientation for the waters as expect for a negatively charged site at low manganese content (0.1 mol％), the ESR spectra of MnAPSO-34 and MnH-SAPO-34 exhibit the same parameters(g 2.01 and A 89 G), but the spectra obtained from MnAPSO-34 samples are better resolved. The decomposition temperature of as-synthesized MnAPSO-34 were in the range of 200-600 $^{\circ}C$ of the morpholine which is 12 $^{\circ}C$ higher than that in as-synthesized MnH-SAPO-34. Infrared spectra showed that the position of a band at 3450 $cm^{-1}$ / shifted about 15 $cm^{-1}$ / toward higher energy in MnAPSO-34 versus MnH-SAPO-34. The modulation depth of the two-pulse ESE of MnAPSO-34 with adsorbed D$_{2}$O is deeper than that of MnH-SAPO-34 with adsorbed D$_{2}$O. Three-pulse ESEM of MnAPSO-34 and MnH-SAPO-34 with adsorbed deuterium oxide shows that the local environments of manganese in the hydrated samples are different, suggesting that Mn(II) is framework substituted in MnAPSO-34 since it obviously occupies an extraframework position in MnH-SAPO-34.

MnPSO-34 and Mn-impregnated SAPO-34 (Mn-SAPO-34) sample were prepared with various manganese contents and studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) and electron spin-echo modulation (ESEM). Electron spin-echo modulation analysis of 0.07mol ％ Mn(relative to p) in MnAPSO-34 with adsorbed D$_2$O shows two deuteriums at 0.25 nm and two at 0.36 nm from Mn. This suggests that two waters hydrate an MnO4 configuration with a D-O bond orientation for the waters as expect for a negatively charged site at low manganese content (0.07 mol％), the ESR spectra of MnAPSO-34 and MnH-SAPO-34 exhibit the same parameters (g 2.02 and A 87 G), but the spectra obtained from MnAPSO-34 samples are better resolved. TGA of as-synthesized MnAPSO-34 shows that the decomposition temperature in the range 200-$600^{\circ}C$ of the morpholine is 12$^{\circ}C$ higher than that in as-synthesized MnH-SAPO-34. Infrared spectra shows that the position of a band at about 15 cm-1 toward higher energy in MnAPSO-34 versus MnH-SAPO-34. The modulation depth of the two-pulse ESE of MnAPSO-34 with absorbed D$_2$O is deeper than that of MnH-SAPO-34 with absorbed D$_2$O.

This paper presents the synthesis of one-dimensional spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ nanostructures using a facile and scalable two-step process. $LiMn_2O_4$ nanorods with average diameter of 100 nm and length of 1.5 ${\mu}m$ have been prepared by solid-state lithiation of hydrothermally synthesized ${\beta}$-$MnO_2$ nanorods. $LiMn_2O_4$ nanowires with diameter of 10 nm and length of several micrometers have been fabricated via solid-state lithiation of ${\beta}$-$MnO_2$ nanowires. The precursors have been lithiated with LiOH and reaction temperature and pressure have been controlled. The complete structural transformation to cubic phase and the maintenance of 1-D nanostructure morphology have been evaluated by XRD, SEM, and TEM analysis. The size distribution of the spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ nanorods/wires has been similar to the $MnO_2$ precursors. By control of reaction pressure, cubic 1-D spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ nanostructures have been fabricated from tetragonal $MnO_2$ precursors even below $500^{\circ}C$.

Cu가 기존 배선물질인 Al을 대체함에 따라 resistance-capacitance (RC) delay나 electromigration (EM) 등의 문제들이 어느 정도 해결되었다. 그러나 지속적인 배선 폭의 감소로 배선의 저항 증가, EM 현상 강화 그리고 stability 악화 등의 문제가 지속적으로 야기되고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 Cu alloy seed layer를 이용한 barrier 자가형성 공정에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 이 공정은 Cu 합금을 seed layer로 사용하여 도금을 한 후 열처리를 통해 SiO2와의 계면에서 barrier를 자가 형성시키는 공정이다. 이 공정은 매우 균일하고 얇은 barrier를 형성할 수 있고 별도의 barrier와 glue layer를 형성하지 않아 seed layer를 위한 공간을 추가로 확보할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한, via bottom에 barrier가 형성되지 않아 배선 전체 저항을 급격히 낮출 수 있다. 합금 물질로는 초기 Al이나 Mg에 대한 연구가 진행되었으나, 낮은 oxide formation energy로 인해 SiO2에 과도한 손상을 주는 문제점이 제기되었다. 최근 Mn을 합금 물질로 사용한 안정적인 barrier 형성 공정이 보고 되고 있다. 하지만, barrier 형성을 하기 위해 300도 이상의 열처리 온도가 필요하고 열처리 시간 또한 긴 단점이 있다. 본 실험에서는 co-sputtering system을 사용하여 Cu-V 합금을 형성하였고, barrier를 자가 형성을 위해 300도에서 500도까지 열처리 온도를 변화시키며 1시간 동안 열처리를 실시하였다. Cu-V 공정 조건 확립을 위해 AFM, XRD, 4-point probe system을 이용하여 표면 거칠기, 결정성과 비저항을 평가하였다. Cu-V 박막 내 V의 함량은 V target의 plasma power density를 변화시켜 조절 하였으며 XPS를 통해 분석하였다. 열처리 후 시편의 단면을 TEM으로 분석하여 Cu-V 박막과 SiO2 사이에 interlayer가 형성된 것을 확인 하였으며 EDS를 이용한 element mapping을 통해 Cu-V 내 V의 거동과 interlayer의 성분을 확인하였다. PVD Cu-V 박막은 기판 온도에 큰 영향을 받았고, 200 도 이상에서는 Cu의 높은 표면에너지에 의한 agglomeration 현상으로 거친 표면을 가지는 박막이 형성되었다. 7.61 at.%의 V함량을 가지는 Cu-V 박막을 300도에서 1시간 열처리 한 결과 4.5 nm의 V based oxide interlayer가 형성된 것을 확인하였다. 열처리에 의해 Cu-V 박막 내 V은 SiO2와의 계면과 박막 표면으로 확산하며 oxide를 형성했으며 Cu-V 박막 내 V 함량은 줄어들었다. 300, 400, 500도에서 열처리 한 결과 동일 조성과 열처리 온도에서 Cu-Mn에 의해 형성된 interlayer의 두께 보다 두껍게 성장 했다. 이는 V의 oxide formation nergyrk Mn 보다 작으므로 SiO2와의 계면에서 산화막 형성이 쉽기 때문으로 판단된다. 또한, V+5 이온 반경이 Mn+2 이온 반경보다 작아 oxide 내부에서 확산이 용이하며 oxide 박막 내에 여기되는 전기장이 더 큰 산화수를 가지는 V의 경우 더 크기 때문으로 판단된다.
