This paper describes magnetically levitated vehicle with hybrid magnets, which have been studied by the authors in place of streetcars or conveyance system. An experimental vehicle of 20kg was magnetically levitated by using a small number of dry-cell batteries, which consisted of 10 Ni-MH cells of 1900mAh in series. The magnets were activated sequentially, because the internal resistance of the batteries suppressed the maximum current. The vehicle was kept levitating for about 2 hours and was stable against disturbance due to instantaneous external force. In this paper, dynamic characteristics of the magnetically levitated vehicle using a small number of dry cell batteries are presented.

The rapid development of communication equipment and information processing technology has led to a constant improvement in cordless communication. Lithium ion batteries used in cellular phones and laptop computers, in particular, have been in the forefront of the above revolution. These batteries use high value added raw materials and have a high and stable energy output and are increasingly coming into common use. The development of the material for the negative terminal has led to an improvement in the quality and efficiency of the batteries, whereas a reduction in the cost of the battery by researching new materials for the positive anode has become a research theme by itself. These long life batteries, it is being increasingly realized, can have value added to them by recycling. Research is increasingly being done on recycling the aluminum case and the load casing for the negative diode.

Manganese dioxide ($MnO_2$) is one of the most important cathode materials used in both aqueous and non-aqueous batteries. The $MnO_2$ polymorph that is used for lithium primary batteries is synthesized either by electrolytic (EMD-$MnO_2$) or chemical methods (CMD-$MnO_2$). Commonly, electrolytic manganese dioxide (EMD) is used as a cathode mixture material for dry-cell batteries, such as a alkaline batteries, zinc-carbon batteries, rechargeable alkaline batteries, etc. The characteristics of lithium/manganese-dioxide primary cells fabricated with EMD-$MnO_2$ powders as cathode were compared as a function of the parameters of a manufacturing process. The flexible primary cells were prepared with EMD-$MnO_2$, active carbon, and poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder (10 wt.%) coated on an Al foil substrate. A cathode sheet with micro-porous showed a higher discharge capacity than a cathode sheet compacted by a press process. As the amount of EMD-$MnO_2$ increased, the electrical conductivity decreased and the electrical capacity increased. The cell subjected to heat-treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr showed a high discharge capacity. The flexible primary cell made using the optimum conditions showed a capacity and an average voltage of 220 mAh/g and 2.8 V, respectively, at $437.5{\mu}A$.

Graphene has attracted an increasing attention due to its extraordinary electronic, mechanical, and thermal properties. Especially, the two dimensional (2D) sheet of graphene with an extremely high surface to volume ratio has a great potential in the preparation of multifunctional nanomaterials, as 2D supports to host metal nanoparticles (NPs). Copper oxide is widely used in various areas as antifouling paint, p-type semiconductor, dry cell batteries, and catalysts. Although the copper oxide(II) has been well known for efficient catalyst in C-N cross-coupling reaction, copper oxide(I) has not been highlighted. In this research, CuO and Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed on the surface of grapehene oxide (GO) have been synthesized by impregnation method and their morphological and electronic structures have been systemically investigated using TEM, XRD, and XAFS. We demonstrate that both CuO and Cu2O on graphene presents efficient catalytic performance toward C-N cross coupling reaction. The detailed structural difference between CuO and Cu2O NPs and their effect on catalytic performance are discussed.

상온에서 DC-magnetron sputtering으로 증착한 비정질의 $V_2O_5$ 박막을 양극물질로 하여 $V_2O_5/LIPON/Li$으로 구성된 박막형 리튬이차전지를 제작하였다. $V_2O_5$의 양극특성은 액체전해질을 이용한 half cell 구조에서 평가하였으며, $Ar/O_2$ 분압비의 변화에 따라 제작된 $V_2O_5$ 양극은 분압비 80/20에서 가장 좋은 특성을 보였다. 자체 제작한 $Li_3PO_4$ 타겟을 사용하여 RF-sputtering으로 순수한 질소 분위기 하에서 양극 위에 고체전해질 LIPON 박막을 형성하였으며, 1.2-4.0V vs. Li 구간에서 리튬에 대해 반응성이 없는 안정한 화합물임을 확인하였다. 음극으로 쓰인 약 $2{\mu}m$두께의 금속리튬박막은 진공 열 증착법으로 제조하였으며, $V_2O_5/LIPON/Li$의 박막형 리튬이차전지는 $1.2\~3.5V$ 구간에서 초기에 약 $150{\mu}A/cm^2{\mu}m$의 높은 방전용량을 나타내었다.

This paper is contents on the orthorhombic crystalline calcined by the solid phase method with LiMnO$_2$ thin film structured as the result which an average pore diameter of power was 132.3${\AA}$ in porosity analysis. Voltage ranges are able to get the properties of charge and discharge for experimental results of LiMnO$_2$ thin film were 2.2V 4.3V. The current density and scan speed were 0. 1㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.2㎷/sec respectively. Properties of the charge and discharge are obtained by optimum experiment condition parameters. Li dense ratio of the LiMnO$_2$ thin film that discharged capacities were 87㎃h/g have been 96.9［ppm］ at 670.784［nm］ wavelength. The dense ratio of Mn analyzed to 837［ppm］ at 257.610［nm］ wavelength. It can be estimated the quality of the LiMnO$_2$ thin film as that the wrong LiMnO$_2$ thin film pulled up from cell of electrolyte and became dry it at 800$^{\circ}C$. The results of SEM and XRD were the same as that of original researchers.

PVA-전구체법을 사용하여, 리튬전지의 양극물질인 $Li_xNi_{1-y}Co_yO_2$의 다결정성 분말을 합성하였다. 합성된 분말을 양극물질로 사용하여 리튬이온전지를 제조하여 전지의 전기화학적 성질을 측정하였다. PVA와 금속이온간의 상대적 양, PVA의 농도 및 중합도, 열처리조건, 금속의 조성비 등 여러 다른 합성조건을 변화시키면서, 그러한 합성상의 조건 변화가 리튬이온전지의 전지특성과 어떠한 상호관계를 갖는지 조사하였다. 전지의 초기성능에 관한 한, PVA-전구체법으로 합성한 $Li_xNi_{1-y}Co_yO_2$의 경우, 최적의 조성은 x=1.0, y=0.26인 것으로 관찰되었다. PVA-전구체법으로 합성할 경우, 전구체에 남는 잔여탄소로 인해 형성되는 $Li_2CO_3$가 전지의 성능을 저하시키는 것으로 관찰되었다. 이를 제거하기 위해 건조 공기의 흐름 속에서 열처리를 하거나, 합성 후 2차 열처리 과정에서 $500^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 건조공기의 흐름을 유지하며 annealing 처리를 하는 것이 전지의 특성을 크게 개선하는 것으로 관찰되었다.
