The polyacenic semiconductor material (PAS) electrode prepared by the pyrolytic treatment of phenol-formaldehyde resin is one of useful electrodes. As an anode material of lithium rechargeable batteries, amorphous carbon materials have been studied extensively because of their high electrochemcal performance and cyclicability. Carbon materials do not lead to the formation of lithium dendrite which is one of the most serious problems in applying Li-based materials to an electrode of batteries. The polyacene materials prepared from phenol resin at relatively low temperatures $(550\~750^{\circ}C)$ show a highly Li\doped state up to $C_2Li$ state without liberation of Li cluster. We prepared each polyacene materials at various temperature and investigated electro- chemical properties. We tried to change the mole ratio of [H]/[C] which is $0.24\~0.4$ range. Considering of electrochemical properties of PAS material, the PAS material is one of the most suitable materials for electrodes of a polymer battery.

The polyacene materials prepared from phenol resine at relatively low temperature(550~75$0^{\circ}C$) show a highly Li-doped state up to $C_2$Li state without liberation of Li cluster. We prepared each polyacenic materials various temperature and investigated electrochemical property. We tried to change the mole ratio of [H]/[C] that was 0.24~0.4 range and finally found that the further discussion of improvements of battery materials. The X-ray structural analyses have shown that this material is essentiallly amorphous with loose structure in molecular size order. This structure ensures that the PAS battery has both reliability on repetitive doping-undoping processes and higher energy density than other batteries. The PAS electrode has been confirmed to show good stability and reversibility.

During the past decade, substantial research effort has been directed into the development of rechargeable lithium batteries. Although some improvements in cycle life and efficiency have been achieved, the reversibility of the lithium electrode remains as a significant problem in aprotic solvent based electrolyte. The major problems limiting cycle life are short circuits resulting from growth of lithium dendrites, and macroscopic shape changes during the recharge process. As an anode material of lithium rechargeable battery, amorphous carbon materials have been studied extensively because of their high electrochemical performance. The polyacene materials prepared from phenol refine at relatively low temperature(550∼750$^{\circ}C$) show a highly Li-doped state up C$_2$Li state without liberation of Li cluster. So it has largely layered distance 4${\AA}$. The Li storage mechanism as well as the large hysterisis observed in the voltage-capacity profile of the amorphous carbone materials are still the subjects of controversy. We prepared each polyacene material various temperature and investigated electrochemical property. The mole ratio of [H]/[C] is 0.027∼0.015 range.
