Due to the serious air pollution problem, interest in eco-friendly vehicles is increasing. Solving the problem of pollution will necessitate the securing of high energy storage technology for batteries, the driving force of eco-friendly vehicles. The reason for the continuing interest in the transition metal oxide LiMO₂ as a cathode material with a layered structure is that lithium ions reveal high mobility in two-dimensional space. Therefore, it is important to investigate the effective intercalation and deintercalation pathways of Li⁺, which affect battery capacity, to understand the internal structure of the cathode particle and its effect on the electrochemical performance. In this study, for the cathode material, high nickel Ni_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1(OH)₂ precursor is synthesized by controlling the ammonia concentration. Thereafter, the shape of the primary particles of the precursor is investigated through SEM analysis; X-ray diffraction analysis is also performed. The electrochemical properties of LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ are evaluated after heat treatment.

Ni-rich layered oxides cathode has recently gained attention as an advanced cathode material due to their applicable energy density. However, as the Ni component in the layered site is increased, the high reactivity of Ni⁴⁺ results in parasitic reaction associated with decomposing electrolyte, which leads to a rapid decreasing the lifespan of the cell. The electrolyte additive triallyl borate (TAB) improves interfacial stability, leading to a stable cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) layer on the LNCM83 cathode. A multi-functionalized TAB additive can produce a uniformly distributed CEI layer via electrochemical oxidation, which implies an increase in long-term cycling performance. After 100 cycles at elevated temperature, the cell tested by 0.75 TAB retained 88.3% of its retention ratio, whereas the cell performed by TAB-free electrolyte retained 64.1% of its retention. Once the TAB additive formed CEI layers on the LNCM83 cathode, it inhibited the decomposition of carbonate-based solvents species in addition to the dissolution of transition metal components from the cathode. The addition of TAB to LNCM83 cathode material is believed to be a promising way to increase the electrochemical performance.

본 논문에서는 다양한 조성의 주석-은-구리 합금계 솔더볼과 ENIG 및 Cu-OSP 패드와의 계면 반응에 대해 연구하였다. ENIG 패드와 미량의 Sb이 첨가된 합금 솔더와의 계면 반응 시 다른 솔더에 비해 매우 얇은 100 nm 내외의 두께를 가진 P-rich Ni layer가 형성되었다. 미량의 Ni이 첨가된 합금 솔더와 Cu-OSP 금속 패드와의 계면 반응 시에는 다른 솔더와는 달리 균일한 두께의 $Cu_6Sn_5$ 금속간화합물이 형성되었으며 추가 리플로우 시에 금속간화합물 입자가 거의 성장하지 않았다. 또한 $150^{\circ}C$의 장시간 열처리 시에 다른 솔더에 비해 매우 얇은 두께의 $Cu_3Sn$ 금속간화합물이 형성되었다.

V-Ti(V-rich) 수소저장합금을 기초(base)로 하여 2가지 타입(type)의 전극을 제조하였다. 첫째로 V-Ti 합금에 Ni 분말을 혼합하여 성형한 후 급속가열방법으로 소결하여 전극을 제조하였다. 둘째로 Ni을 V-Ti 합금과 합금화한 V-Ti-Ni 3원계 수소저장합금에 Ni, PTFE 분말을 혼합하여 냉간압축으로 성형하여 전극을 제조하였다. 이와같이 제조된 전극으로 싸이클에따른 충/방전 실험을 한 결과, 모든 전극에 있어 10싸이클 이내에 퇴화(degradation)가 일어났다. 충방전 실험후 전해질내의 조성분석결과 Ti에 비해 V이 많이 전해질 내에 용해되었으며 합금원소의 용해에 의한 표면 형상의 변화가 관찰되었고, 전극표면에 매우 passive 한 Ti-oxide($TiO_2$)가 형성되었다. Ti-oxide($TiO_2$)는 전기전도도가 매우 낮고, 수소에대한 확산계수(diffusivity)도 낮기때문에 전극표면에 형성된 $TiO_2$층은 충/방전 싸이클동안 방전용량을 크게 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

For the plasma sprayed as well as the EB-PVD thermal barrier coatings, the fracture paths within the oxidation products developed at the interface between the partially stabilized zirconia ceramic coating and NiCoCrAlY bond coat during cyclic thermal oxidation has been investigated. It was observed that the fracture in the oxidation products primarily took place within the oxide such as $Ni_{1-x}Co_3(Al_,Cr)_2O_4$ or at the interface between the oxide and $Al_2O_3$. It was found that Al2O3 developed first, followed by the Ni/Co/Cr rich oxides such as ,,$Ni_{1-x}Co_x(Al_,Cr)_2O_4$ $Cr_2O_3$and NiO at the interface between the ceramic coating and the bond coat in a cyclic high temperature environment. It was therfore concluded that the formation of the oxide containing Ni, Cr and Co was a life-limiting event for thermal barrier coatings during cyclic thermal oxidation.

스크린 인쇄법을 이용하여 알루미나 기판위에 Ni-Mn-Co-Fe 산화물 후막을 코팅하였다. 후막의 조성과 소성온도를 변화시키며 미세구조와 전기적 특성을 연구하였다. 1150${\circ}C$에서 소성한 시편의 경우 모든 구성 원소가 후막에 균일하게 분포되어 있었다. 그러나, 1200${\circ}C$와 1225${\circ}C$에서 소성한 시편의 경우 Co 원소는 후막에 균일하게 분포되어 있으나 Mn, Ni 및 Fe 원소는 불균일하게 분포되어 있어 Mn 원소의 농도가 큰 영역과 Ni과 Fe 원소의 농도가 큰 영역이 존재하였다. 제조한 모든 후막 NTC 서미스터는 NTC 서미스터의 특성인 로그 저항(log R)과 온도의 역수(1/T) 사이에서 직선적인 관계를 보였다. $(Ni_{1.0}Mn_{1.0}Co_{1-x}Fe_x)O_4$ (0.25${\le}$x${\le}$1.0)와 $(Ni_{0.75}Mn_{1.25}Co_{1-x}Fe_x)O_4$ (0.25${\le}$x${\le}$0.75) 서미스터의 저항, B 정수 및 활성화 에너지는 Fe2O3 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였다.

Recently, layered nickel-rich cathode materials (NCM) have attracted considerable attention as advanced alternative cathode materials for use in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, their inferior surface stability that gives rise to rapid fading of cycling performance is a significant drawback. This paper proposes a simple and convenient coating method that improves the surface stability of NCM using sulfate-based solvents that create artificial cathode-electrolyte interphases (CEI) on the NCM surface. SO_x-based artificial CEI layer is successfully coated on the surface of the NCM through a wet-coating process that uses dimethyl sulfone (DMS) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as liquid precursors. It is found that the SO_x-based artificial CEI layer is well developed on the surface of NCM with a thickness of a few nanometers, and it does not degrade the layered structure of NCM. In cycling performance tests, cells with DMS- or DMSO-modified NCM811 cathodes exhibited improved specific capacity retention at room temperature as well as at high temperature (DMS-NCM811: 99.4%, DMSO-NCM811: 88.6%, and NCM811: 78.4%), as the SO_x-based artificial CEI layer effectively suppresses undesired surface reactions such as electrolyte decomposition.

The Li-rich oxides are promising cathode materials due to their high energy density. However, characteristics such as low rate capability, unstable cyclic performance, and rapid capacity fading during cycling prevent their commercialization. These characteristics are mainly attributed to the phase instability of the host structure and undesirable side reactions at the cathode/electrolyte interface. To suppress the phase transition during cycling and interfacial side reactions with the reactive electrolyte, K (potassium) doping and Nb oxide coating were simultaneously introduced to a Li-rich oxide (Li_1.2Ni_0.13Co_0.13Mn_0.54O₂). The capacity and rate capability of the Li-rich oxide were significantly enhanced by K doping. Considering the X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the interslab thickness of LiO₂ increased and cation mixing decreased due to K doping, which facilitated Li migration during cycling and resulted in enhanced capacity and rate capability. The K-doped Li-rich oxide also exhibited considerably improved cyclic performance, probably because the large K⁺ ions disturb the migration of the transition metals causing the phase transition and act as a pillar stabilizing the host structure during cycling. The Nb oxide coating also considerably enhanced the capacity and rate capability of the samples, indicating that the undesirable interfacial layer formed from the side reaction was a major resistance factor that reduced the capacity of the cathode. This result confirms that the introduction of K doping and Nb oxide coating is an effective approach to enhance the electrochemical performance of Li-rich oxides.
