  • In order to improve the rate capability of lithium manganese oxide thin film, we prepared the patterned cathode films by conventional lithography and etching techniques. From the investigation of discharge current density effects on discharge curves of cathode films, the rate capability was greatly improved due to increase of lithium intercalation kinetics fur charge transfer.

  • In order to investigate the origin of capacity fading with charge/discharge cycling in $LiMn_2O_4$ thin film battery, impedance studies have been performed with increasing cycling in $LiMn_2O_4/1M\;LiClO_4-PC/Li$ cells. The fitted values obtained from impedance data show good agreements with the experimental results. Especially, the element of charge transfer resistance of $LiMn_2O_4/liquid$ electrolyte interface initially increased, and then saturated with increasing the charge/discharge cycles, which could explain the cause of initial abrupt capacity fading of $LiMn_2O_4$ thin film with cycling due to interfacial reaction. The steady capacity fading is caused by the increasing of Warburg resistance. The chemical diffusion coefficient of Li ions decreased from $5.15\times10^{-11}cm^2/sec$ at 1st cycles to $6.3\times10^{-12}cm^2/sec$ at 800th cycles, which attributed to the Jahn-Teller distortion/Mn dissolution which diminishes tetra hedral sites necessary for Li diffusion in $LiMn_2O_4$.

  • In this experiments, tin oxide thin film anode for microbattery was deposited by using RF magnetron sputtering. The RF power and operating pressure during deposition were fixed at $2.5W/cm^2$ and 10mTorr respectively. The partial pressure of oxygen was varied from $0\%\;to\;100\%$ to control oxygen content and metal Sn chips were used further reducing of oxygen content. According to reduction in the oxygen content formation of the irreversible $Li_2O$ was reduced a thin film anode of $SnO_x$ of high capacity was fabricated. The optimum $SnO_x$, thin film was $SnO_{1.43}$ which exhibited a reversible capacity of $ 500{\mu}Ah/cm^2{\mu}m$ and exhibited good reversibility.

  • As the size of market for electric vehicles and energy storage systems grows, the demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is increasing. Currently, commercial LIBs are fabricated with liquid electrolytes, which have some safety issues such as low chemical stability, which can cause ignition of fire. As a substitute for liquid electrolytes, solid electrolytes are now being extensively studied. However, solid electrolytes have disadvantages of low ionic conductivity and high resistance at interface between electrode and electrolyte. In this study, Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO), one of the best ion conducting materials among oxide based solid electrolytes, is fabricated through RF-sputtering and various electrochemical properties are analyzed. Moreover, the electrochemical properties of LLZO are found to significantly improve with co-sputtered Li2O. An all-solid thin film battery is fabricated by introducing a thin film solid electrolyte and an Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) cathode; resulting electrochemical properties are also analyzed. The LLZO/Li2O (60W) sample shows a very good performance in ionic conductivity of 7.3×10-8 S/cm, with improvement in c-rate and stable cycle performance.

  • Transparent semiconductor oxide thin films have been attracting considerable attention as potential channel layers in thin film transistors (TFTs) owing to their several advantageous electrical and optical characteristics such as high mobility, high stability, and transparency. TFTs with ZnO or similar metal oxide semiconductor thin films as the active layer have already been developed for use in active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED). Of late, there have been several reports on TFTs fabricated with InZnO, AlZnSnO, InGaZnO, or other metal oxide semiconductor thin films as the active channel layer. These newly developed TFTs were expected to have better electrical characteristics than ZnO TFTs. In fact, results of these investigations have shown that TFTs with the new multi-component material have excellent electrical properties. In this work, we present TFTs with inverted coplanar geometry and with a novel HfInZnO active layer co-sputtered at room temperature. These TFTs are meant for use in low voltage, battery-operated mobile and flexible devices. Overall, the TFTs showed good performance: the low sub-threshold swing was low and the $I_{on/off}$ ratio was high.

  • We investigated the electrochemical properties and microstructure on the various argon deposition pressure $(P_{Ar})$ and the low annealing temperature $(400^{\circ}C)$ of $LiCoO_2$ cathodes, which deposited by R.F. magnetron sputtering. The microsuucture and composition of Lico02 thin film was changed as a function of $P_{Ar}$. The capacity and electrochemical properties were improved with Ph of $LiCoO_2$ thin films. The cycling reversibility and stability of thin film batteries were measured by cyclic voltammetry and the constant current charge-discharge. The physical properties of cathode films were analyzed by ICP-AES, XRD, SEM and AFM for composition, crystallization and surface morphology.

  • LiMn2O4 thin fiolm cathodes for Li-ion secondary battery were fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering technique. As-deposited films were amorphous. A spinel structure could not be obtained LiMn2O4 films by in-situ thermal annealing. After post thermal annealing over $700^{\circ}C$ in oxygen atmosphere, LiMn2O4 films prepared above 100 W r.f. power could be crystallized into a spinel structure. The electrochemical property of the LiMn2O4 film cathodes was tested in a Li/1 M LiClO4 in PC/LiMn2O4 cell. From cyclic voltammetry at scan rate of 2mV/sec of 2.5~4.5V, LiMn2O4 electrode prepared by post annealing at 75$0^{\circ}C$ showed good initial capacity. LiMn2O4 electrode prepared by post annealing at 80$0^{\circ}C$ showed the best crycling performance.
