The passivation of AZ91D Mg alloys through plasma anodization depends on several process parameters, such as power mode and electrolyte composition. In this work, we study the dependence of the thickness, composition, pore formation, surface roughness, and corrosion resistance of formed films on the electrolyte temperature at which anodization is performed. The higher the electrolyte temperature, the lower is the surface roughness, the smaller is the oxide thickness, and the better is the corrosion resistance. More specifically, as the electrolyte temperature increases from 10 to $50^{\circ}C$, the surface roughness (Ra) decreases from 0.7 to $0.15{\mu}m$ and the corrosion resistance increases from 3.5 to 9 in terms of rating number in a salt spray test. The temperature increase from 10 to $50^{\circ}C$ also causes an increase in magnesium content in the film from 25 to 63 wt% and a decrease in oxygen from 66 to 21 wt%, indicating dehydration of the film.

Characteristics of composite electrolytes which were prepared by coating a thin film of YSZ (yttria sta-bilized zirconia : (ZrO2)0.92 (Y2O3)0.08) on YDC (yttria doped ceria : Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9) with mixed conductivity have been investigated in order to develop the low-temperature solid oxide fuel cell. The thickness (t) of spin-coated YSZ thin films after the heat-treatment at 600$^{\circ}C$ was increased proportionally to the sol con-centrations (C) while the decrease in its thickness with the spin rate ($\omega$) could be expressed in the e-quation of ln t=9.49-0.53 ln $\omega$(0.99mol//s sol conc.) When the sol concentration and the spin rate being less than 0.99 mol/l and higher than 1000 rpm respectively reliable YSZ/YDC composite electrolytes could be obtained by multi-coating although several micro-cracks were observed in singly coated YSZ film surfaces. The dense YSZ film with a 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness was prepared by coating of 0.99 mol/l YSZ sol five-times at 2000 rpm followed by heat-treatment at 1400$^{\circ}C$ for 2h, The adhesion between YSZ film and YDC substrate was found to be very good. The open circuit voltages of H2/O2 single cell with YSZ/YDC composite electrolytes were 0.79∼0.82 V at 800$^{\circ}C$ and 0.75∼0.77V at 900$^{\circ}C$ The open circuit voltage was inversely proportioned to the thickness ratio of YSZ thin film (1$\mu\textrm{m}$) to YDC substrate(0.28-2.22 mm)

The electrochromic WO$_3$ thin films were prepared by using an electron - beam evaporation technique. The influence of the electron - beam evaporation conditions. especially the vacuum pressure, and resistance of ITO substrate on the structural and electrochromic properties of the investigated film was presented. This films showed electrochromic behavior in an aqueous electrolyte of 1 M H$_2$SO$_4$. Among these WO$_3$ thin films, films prepared at a vacuum pressure of 10$^{-4}$ mbar were found to be most stable in terms of cycling durability. The chemical stability of film against dissolution in the aqueous solution was also shown to depend on the quantity of water in the film.

티타니아 나노튜브(Titania nanotube, TNT)는 티타늄을 $F^-$ 이온을 함유한 전해질 하에서 전기로 양극산화 시켜 제조 한 튜브형태의 박막으로 광학 활성을 가진다. 전해질은 증류수와 포름아마이드를 용매로 사용하였으며 HF, NaF, $NH_4F$ 를 $F^-$이온 성분으로 사용하였다. 전압과 양극산화 시간이 증가함에 따라 TNT의 길이와 직경도 증가하였다. 양극산화에 의해 제조된 TNT는 매우 규칙적인 튜브형태였으며, 제조 조건에 따라 길이는 최대 13.7 ${\mu}m$이었다. 생성된 티타니아는 비정질이었으며 열처리에 의해 아나타제 결정으로 바뀌었다.

Li+-ion conducting ($Li_{3}PO_{4}$) thin films with thickness of $0.3{\mu}m$, $0.65{\mu}$, $1.2{\mu}$ were deposited on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate at room temperature by thermal evaporation. They were sintered at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, respectively. Reference electrode and sensing electrode were printed on Au-electrode by silk printing method. The EMF and the ${\Delta}EMF$/dec were increased with increasing the electrolyte thickness and sintering temperature. The sample sintered at $800^{\circ}C$ was shown a good response and recovery characteristics more than those sintered at $700^{\circ}C$. The Nernst's slop of 75 mV per decade was obtained at operating temperature of $500^{\circ}C$.

The commercialization of aluminum had been delayed than other metals because of its high oxygen affinity. Anodizing is a process in which oxide film is formed on the surface of a valve metal in an electrolyte solution by anodic oxidation reaction. Aluminum has thin oxide film on surface but the oxide film is inhomogeneous having a thickness only in the range of several nanometers. Anodizing process increases the thickness of the oxide film significantly. In this study, porous type oxide film was produced on the surface of aluminum in sulfuric acid as a function of electrolyte temperature, and the optimum condition were determined for anodizing film to exhibit excellent cavitation resistance in seawater environment. The result revealed that the oxide film formed at $10^{\circ}C$ represented the highest cavitation resistance, while the oxide film formed at $15^{\circ}C$ showed the lowest resistance to cavitation in spite of its high hardness.

본 실험에서 QCA를 사용하여 $NaClO_4$, $LiClO_4$, $KClO_4$전해질 용액에서 전기중합한 폴리피롤 박막의 점탄성 특성을 in situ 분석하였다. 수정진동자를 특수 제작한 전기화학 분석셀에 넣어 수정진동자의 한쪽 전극을 작용전극으로 사용하였다. 공진주파수와 공진저항 상관도 (F-R)도를 이용하여 폴리피롤 박막의 점탄성을 해석하였고 AFM 사진과 비교 검토하였다. 피롤을 정전류에서 중합하여 피막한 수정진동자를 이용하여 순환전위주사하면서 공진주파수, 공진저항, 전류를 측정하여 폴리피롤 박막의 산화-환원 반응 거동을 분석하였다. 본 실험 결과, 전기중합 초기에는 피롤 박막이 탄성적으로 거동하다가 중합되어 감에 따라 점차 점탄성막으로 변하여 감을 알 수 있었다. 동시에 박막 사이로 전해질 용액이 침투됨에 따라 박막의 두께가 증가하면서 표면 형상도 변화하였다. 이와 같은 현상은 중합할 때의 전해질과 전위주사할 때의 전해질 용액을 변화시키면서 순환전위주사하여도 발생하였다.

All-solid-state thin-film lithium-ion batteries are important in the development of next-generation energy storage devices with high energy density. However, thin-film batteries have many challenges in their manufacturing procedure. This is because there are many factors, such as substrate selection, to consider when producing the thin film multilayer structure. In this study, we compare the fabrication and performance of all-solid-state thin-film lithium-ion batteries with a $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ cathode/LiPON solid electrolyte/$Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ anode structure using stainless steel and Si substrates with different surface roughness. We demonstrate that the smoother the surface of the substrate, the thinner the thickness of the all-solid-state thin-film lithium-ion battery that can be made, and as a result, the corresponding electrochemical characteristics can be improved.

We demonstrate the utilization of ion gel gate dielectrics for operating non-volatile transistor memory devices based on polymer semiconductor thin films. The gating process in typical electrolyte-gated polymer transistors occurs upon the penetration and escape of ionic components into the active channel layer, which dopes and dedopes the polymer film, respectively. Therefore, by controlling doping and dedoping processes, electrical current signals through the polymer film can be memorized and erased over a period of time, which constitutes the transistor-type memory devices. It was found that increasing the thickness of polymer films can enhance the memory performance of device including (i) the current signal ratio between its memorized state and erased state and (ii) the retention time of the signal.

Amorphous nickelphthalocyanine(NiPc) thin films were prepared by vacuum evaporation and their electrochromic behavior and voltammograms were examined in the five kinds of aqueous electrolytes. Amorphous NiPc films were prepared on indium-tin-oxide(ITO) glass substrates cooled to-$120^{\circ}C$ by using liquid nitrogen under a vacuum of $2.4 \times 10^{-4}$. The voltammetric and electrochromic measurements were made using a potential galvanostat. In order to confirm the color change, optical vis-transmission spectra of the NiPc films were measured by a spectrophotometer with various electrode potential applied. The NiPc amorphous thin films exhibited most clearly electrochromism in $KNO_3$ aqueous electrolyte. The specimen films underwent 3 color transitions (from blue to yellow-green, then to red violet, then to dark blue), corresponding to the three peaks on the voltammograms in $KNO_3$ aqueous electrolyte. Blue is color of the as-prepared film. When the potential was swept, charge compensation was attained upon oxidation by injection of anions from the electrolyte and upon reduction by expulsion of anions.
