  • 현재 중온의 고체산화물 연료전지를 위해 다양한 전해질에 대한 연구되었으며 1994년 Ishihara et al.에서 1074K의 온도에서 높은 이온전도도를 갖는 페록스카이 구조를 갖는 LSGM 물질을 발표하였다. Sr과 Mg을 도핑한 Lanthanum gallate는 이온전도도가 1073K에서 0.14S/cm로 YSZ의 5배로 높은 이온전도도를 갖고 있으며 산화환경에서부터 환원환경에서 화학적으로 안정한 특성을 갖고 있다. 또한 LSGM 전해질은 넓은 산소 농도범위에서 안정적인 특성을 갖는 장점을 갖고 있다. 그러나 LSGM은 가장 널리 사용되는 연료극의 Ni 촉매와 고온 소결시 상호확산현상에 의한 2차상을 생성시켜 성능 저감의 원인으로 그 해결방안이 요원한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 LSGM 전해질에 LSGM scaffold를 형성하고 형성된 scaffold에 연료극 촉매 solution을 infiltration 시켜 저온에서 anode를 형성하여 그 성능을 연구하였다.

  • In general, the realization of spaceborne system is constrained by its space environment. In this paper, we suggest chirp stitching technique which generates and processes wideband radar signal with minimum hardware, design and implement transmit/receive equipments and operating programs to satisfy the requirement of this spaceborne high resolution SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar). We apply the top down design approach to this system, and divide hardware into equipment, module and circuit levels, and software into SR(Software Requirement), AD(Architecture Design), DD(Detailed Design) and coding levels, and then extract each requirement to satisfy the wideband requirement of this spaceborne high resolution SAR. We, at first, test the hardware functions, confirm the wideband handling capability of this system with 85MHz wideband signals generated from two 42.5MHz narrow band signals, and show that this system can be used in spaceborne high resolution SARs.

  • The normal state of high-Tc superconducting materials has been believed to contain important clues to finding the correct mechanism of the high-Tc superconductivity. One example is the existence of pseudogap in the normal state even above Tc, as observed in various measurements such as photoemission spectroscopy and tunneling conductance. In this pseudogap regime the existence of preformed pairs only with local phase coherence has been debated. Recently Choi, Bang, and Campbell[1] have proposed the occurrence of the zero-bias conductance enhancement due to Andreev quasiparticle reflection from the preformed pairs even with the local phase coherence. In this study we examine the zero-bias enhancement of the differential conductance near or slightly above Tc, using c-axis tunneling in mesa structure of Bi2Sr20a0u208+d single crystals. In slightly overdoped samples zero-bias conductance enhancement (ZBCE) has been observed over a range of 2 K above Tc. In contrast, in underdoped samples with Tc${\sim}$72K the ZBCE appears over a range of 5-6 K above Tc, a much wider temperature range than in overdoped samples. This result may pose as positive signs of the existence of prefurmed pairs in the normal state of high- Tc superconducting materials.

  • To investigate the thermal effects on functional properties of domestic bentonite, XRD patterns, TG /DSC curves, swelling rates and distribution coefficients of heat-treated Dong-Hae A bentonite were studied. In the XRD patterns, (001) peak disappeared at above 20$0^{\circ}C$ and Dong-Hae A was identified as Ca-bentonite through the DSC curve. The loss of swelling capacity and CEC began at 10$0^{\circ}C$. The distribution coefficients of Am-241, Co-60 and Cs-137 onto heat-treated Dong-Hae A showed negligible variance as temperature was raised and that of Sr-85 decreased at about 15$0^{\circ}C$. Reviewing these data, it was evaluated that Dong-Hae A colud be used as a buffer material at below 10$0^{\circ}C$.

  • Adsorption characteristics of the radionuclides and stable elements on AMP and $MnO_2$ in the seawater have been investigated. The adsorption yield of AMP was 97.5% for $^{137}Cs$, 11.8% for $^{85}Sr$, and 15.1% for $^{131}I$, while being less than 6% for other radionuclides and elements. The AMP showed the highest adsorption yield for $^{137}Cs$. The adsorption yields of $MnO_2$ were more than 90% for all radionuclides and elements, except for $^{40}K$, $^{137}Cs$ and $^{203}Hg$ of which the adsorption yields were less than 8%.

  • The mechanism of radionuclide colloid transport in porous media was studied through modeling and experiment. A nondestructive column scanning system was developed to improve the traditional destructive core slicing method. With an aid of this system we could get much more results from one experiment. Neutron activated clay soaked with soluble isotopes was used as colloid suspension. Filtration coefficients obtained through the experiments show two families of colloids despite their size distribution. New modeling of polydispersed colloid transport was made with two lumped parameters. This new model simulates well. Among the soluble isotopes $^{l37}$Cs mowed mainly as a form of colloid, but $^{85}$ Sr did not.t.

  • To improve the conventional cathode-supported tubular solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) from the viewpoint of low cell power density, expensive fabrication process and high operation temperature, the anode-supported tubular solid oxide fuel cell was investigated. The anode tube of Ni-8mol% $Y_2$O$_3$-stabilized $ZrO_2$ (8YSZ) was manufactured by extrusion process, and, the electrolyte of 8YSZ and the multi-layered cathode of $LaSrMnO_3$(LSM)ILSM-YSZ composite/$LaSrCoFeO_3$ were coated on the surface of the anode tube by slurry dip coating process, subsequently. Their cell performances were examined under gases of humidified hydrogen with 3% water and air. In the thermal cycle condition of heating and cooling rates with $3.33^{\circ}C$/min, the anode-supported tubular cell showed an excellent resistance as compared with the electrolyte-supported planar cell. The optimum hydrogen flow rate was evaluated and the air preheating increased the cell performance due to the increased gas temperature inside the cell. In long-term stability test, the single cell indicated a stable performance of 300 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 0.85 V for 255 hr.

  • Laser decontamination of radioactive surfaces is an innovative technology. Our contribution to improving this technology includes studies on laser beam decontamination with a pulsed laser of an average power of 150 W, equipped with a hand guided working head. Our investigations are focused on metallic surfaces typical in nuclear power plants, such as stainless steel, bright and rusted mild steel, galvanized steel, and painted steel. As typical nuclides of contaminated surfaces we chose Co-60 and Cs-137, the most frequently occurring nuclides in many nuclear plant components; Sr-85 as a representative of Sr-90, the potentially most harmful fission nuclide; and Am-241 as a representative of the minor alpha-radiation emitting actinides. Here, we present our results of decontamination and recovery ratios. Decontamination ratios of 90-100% were achieved on different surfaces.
