ZnO 박막은 큰 밴드 갭 및 가시광 영역에서 높은 광투과성을 가지며, 제조조건에 따라 비저항의 범위가 폭넓게 변화하므로 태양전지, 평판 디스플레이의 투명 전극뿐만 아니라 음향공전기, 바리스터 등에 이용되고 있다. ZnO 박막의 전도성을 향상시키기 위해서 일반적으로 Al, Ga, Ti, In, B, H(n-type), 등과 N, As(p-type)의 도펀트를 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 전기화학적인 방법을 사용하여 ITO/glass위에 ZnO film에 농도에 따른 Ga을 doping 하여 전기전도성 향상과 밴드갭을 넓힘으로서 전자의 recombination을 방지하여 유기태양전지의 효율을 높이는데 목적을 두었다.

$(Bi,La)_4Ti_3O_{12}$ (BLT) 물질은 결정 방향에 따른 강한 이방성의 강유전 특성을 나타낸다. 따라서 BLT 박막을 이용하여 FeRAM 소자 등을 제작하기 위해서는 결정의 방향성을 세심하게 제어하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 현재까지 연구된 BLT 박막의 방향성 조절 결과를 보면, BLT 박막을 스핀 코팅 법 (spin coating method)으로 중착하고, 핵생성 열처리 단계를 조절하여 무작위 방향성 (random orientation)을 갖는 박막을 제조하는 방법이 일반적이었다. 그런데 이러한 스핀 코팅법에서의 핵생성 단계의 제어는 공정 조건 확보가 너무 어려운 단점이 있다. 이러한 어려움을 극복할 수 있는 대안은 스퍼터링 증착법 (sputtering deposition method), PLD법 (pulsed laser deposition method) 등과 같은 PVD (physical vapor deposition) 법의 증착방법을 적용하는 것이다. PVD 법으로 증착하는 경우에는 이미 박막 내에 무수한 결정핵이 존재하기 때문에 핵생성 단계가 필요 없게 된다. PVD 증착법의 적용을 위해서는 타겟 (target)의 제조 및 평가 실험이 선행되어야 한다. 그런데 벌크 BLT 재료의 소결공정 조건과 전기적 특성에 관한 연구 결과는 거의 발표 되지 않고 있다. 본 실험에서는 $Bi_2O_3$, $TiO_2$ and $La_2O_3$ 분말을 이용하여 최적의 조성을 구하기 위하여 Bi양을 변화시키며 타겟을 제조 하였다. 혼합된 분말을 하소 후 pallet 형태로 성형하여 소결을 실시하였다. 시편을 1mm 두께로 연마하고, 표면에 silver 전극을 인쇄하여 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. Bi양이 3.28몰 첨가된 조성에서 최대의 잔류분극 (2Pr) 값을 얻었고, 이때의 값은 약 $18{\mu}C/cm^2$ 정도였다. 최적화된 조성 ($Bi_{3.28}La_{0.75}Ti_3O_{12}$)으로 BLT 타겟을 제조하여 PLD법으로 박막을 제조하였다. 박막 제조 시 압력은 $1{\times}10^{-1}\;{\sim}\;1{\times}10^{-4}\;Torr$ 범위에서 변화시켰다. $1{\times}10^{-1}\;Torr$ 압력을 제외하고는 모든 압력에서 BLT 박막이 증착되었다. 중착된 박막을 $650\;{\sim}\;800^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 열처리를 실시하고 전기적 특성을 평가한 결과, $1{\times}10^{-2}\;Torr$에서 증착한 박막에서 양호한 P-V (polarization-voltage) 이력곡선을 얻을 수 있었고, 이때의 잔류분극 (2Pr) 값은 약 $6\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ 이었다. 주사전자현미경 (SEM)을 이용하여 BLT 박막 표면의 미세구조도 관찰하였는데, 스핀코팅 법으로 증착한 경우에 관찰되었던 조대화된 입자들은 관찰되지 않았고, 상당히 양호한 입자 크기 균일도를 나타내었다.

${\beta}-PbO_2$ electrode, which was electrodeposited on Ti madras, was prepared and for the decomposition of cyanide in electroplating wastewater. After the investigation of temperature and pH conditions for no hydrogen cyanide evolution during the decomposition of cyanide, the optimum current densities of ${\beta}-PbO_2$ electrodeposition and cyanide decomposition were determined in 500ppm NaCN solution, and durability of ${\beta}-PbO_2$ electrode was also investigated. Hydrogen cyanide was actively generated above $40^{\circ}C$ and was not evolved above pH 13. ${\beta}-PbO_2$ electrode electodeposited at $5A/dm^2$ showed the best cyanide decomposition efficiency The decompostion efficiency was about 70% at low decomposition current density ($0.08A/dm^2$), and it decreased gradually to about 10% as the decomposition current density increased up to $4A/dm^2$. The film of ${\beta}-PbO_2$ electrodeposited was corrosive at $20A/dm^2$ and was broken at $50A/dm^2$.

In this study, $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ anode materials for lithium ion battery were synthesized by dry ball-mill method. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as a carbon source was added to improve electrochemical properties. When the PVC was added after $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ formation, the spinel structure was well synthesized and it was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments. When the carbon material was added before the synthesis and the heat treatment was performed, it was confirmed that a material having a different crystal structure was synthesized even when a small amount of carbon material was added. In the case of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ without the carbon material, the electrical conductivity value was about $10{\mu}S\;m^{-1}$, which was very small and similar to that of the nonconductor. As the carbon was added, the electrical conductivity was greatly improved and increased up to 10,000 times. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis showed that the size of semicircle corresponding to the resistance decreased with the carbon addition. This indicates that the resistance inside the electrode is reduced. According to the Cyclic voltammetry (CV) analysis, the potential difference between the oxidation peak and the reduction peak was reduced with carbon addition. This means that the rate of lithium ion insertion and deinsertion was increased. $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ with 9.5 wt% PVC added sample showed the best properties in rate capabilities of $180mA\;h\;g^{-1}$ at 0.2 C-rate, $165mA\;h\;g^{-1}$ at 0.5 C-rate, and $95.8mA\;h\;g^{-1}$ at 5 C-rate.

Generation of chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) was studied by the un-divided electrochemical cell system using $RuO_2$ anode material. Sodium chlorite ($NaClO_2$) was used as a precursor compound of chlorine dioxide. Effect of various operating parameters such as feed solution flow rate, initial solution pH, $NaClO_2$ and NaCl conc., and applied current density on the produced chlorine dioxide concentration and solution pH were investigated in un-divided electrochemical cell system. Produced chlorine dioxide concentration and solution pH were strongly depends on the initial solution pH and feed solution flow rate. Sodium chloride (NaCl) was not only good electrolyte, it was also used as a raw material of chlorine dioxide with $NaClO_2$. Observed optimum conditions were flow rate of feed solution (90 mL/min), initial pH (2.3), $NaClO_2$ concentration (4.7 mM), NaCl concentration (100 mM), and current density ($5A/dm^2$). Produced chlorine dioxide concentration was around 350 mg/L and solution pH was around 3.

We have investigated structural and electrical properties of $PbZr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7}O_{3}$ (PZT) thin films deposited by pulsed laser deposition methods. PZT thin films have been deposited on $LaMnO_3$ (LMO) bottom electrodes with $LaAlO_3$ (LAO) substrates during different deposition times. High-resolution x-ray diffraction data have shown that all the PZT films and bottom electrodes are highly oriented. The thickness of each film is determined by field-emission scanning electron microscope. We have also observed root mean square roughness by using atomic force microscopy mode, and local polarization distribution and retention behavior of a ferroelectric domain by using piezoelectric force microscopy mode. A PZT/LMO structure has shown good ferroelectric and retention properties as the media for nano-storage devices.

Silicon carbide is considered to be a potentially useful material for high-temperature electronic devices, as its band gap is larger than that of silicon and the p-type and/or n-type conduction can be controlled by impurity doping. Particularly, porous n-type SiC ceramics fabricated from ${\beta}-SiC$ powder have been found to show a high thermoelectric conversion efficiency in the temperature region of $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. For the application of SiC thermoelectric semiconductors, their figure of merit is an essential parameter, and high temperature (above $800^{\circ}C$) electrodes constitute an essential element. Generally, ceramics are not wetted by most conventional braze metals,. but alloying them with reactive additives can change their interfacial chemistries and promote both wetting and bonding. If a liquid is to wet a solid surface, the energy of the liquid-solid interface must be less than that of the solid, in which case there will be a driving force for the liquid to spread over the solid surface and to enter the capillary gaps. Consequently, using Ag with a relatively low melting point, the junction of the porous SiC semiconductor-Ag and/or its alloy-SiC and/or alumina substrate was studied. Ag-20Ti-20Cu filler metal showed promise as the high temperature electrode for SiC semiconductors.

A 0.45 $cm^2$ DSSC device with a glass/FTO/blocking layer/$TiO_2$/N719(dye)/electrolyte/50 nm-Pt/50 nm-Au/FTO/glass was prepared to examine the stability of the Au/Pt bilayered counter electrode (CE) with electrolyte and the energy conversion efficiency (ECE) of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). For comparison, a 100 nm-thick Pt only CE DSSC was also prepared using the same method. The photovoltaic properties, such as the short circuit current density ($J_{sc}$), open circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$), fill factor (FF), and ECE, were checked using a solar simulator and potentiostat with time after assembling the DSSC. The microstructure of the Au/Pt bilayer was examined by optical microscopy after 0~25 minutes. The ECE of the Pt only CE-employed DSSC was 4.60 %, which did not show time dependence. On the other hand, for the Au/Pt CE DSSC, the ECEs after 0, 5 and 15 minutes were 5.28 %, 3.64 % and 2.09 %, respectively. The corrosion areas of the Au/Pt CE determined by optical microscopy after 0, 5, and 25 minutes were 0, 21.92 and 34.06 %. These results confirmed that the ECE and catalytic activity of Au/Pt CE decreased drastically with time. Therefore, a Au/Pt CE-employed DSSC may be superior to the Pt only CE-employed one immediately after integration of the device, but it would degrade drastically with time.
