그래핀은 부피에 비해 표면적이 넓고 뛰어난 기계적 물성과 전기전도성을 가지며 생체적합성이 우수하다. 본 연구에서는 전기화학적 방법을 이용하여 indium tin oxide (ITO) 글래스 슬라이드 표면에 산화그래핀을 증착·환원시킨 전극을 제작하였고 그래핀으로 표면 개질된 ITO의 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 산화그래핀의 증착과 환원에 순환전압전류법을 사용하였다. 주사전자현미경과 에너지 분산형 X-선 분광법을 사용하여 그래핀이 코팅된 ITO 표면을 관찰하였다. 순환전압전류법과 전기화학 임피던스 분광법을 사용하여 제작된 전극들의 전기화학 특성을 평가하였다. 사이클 수와 주사 속도는 산화그래핀 증착과 환원도에 상당한 영향을 미쳤으며 제작된 전극의 전기화학 특성도 달랐다. ITO 전극에 비하여 그래핀으로 표면 개질된 ITO는 전극 계면에서의 전하 전달 저항이 낮았고 더 많은 전류를 생산하였다. 그래핀으로 표면 개질된 ITO 표면에 고정화된 포도당 산화효소는 포도당을 산화시키며 성공적으로 전자들을 생성하였다.

Nanoparticles have been received great attention from many researchers for several decades because of their good and unique properties. In particular, researches in the field of synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles showed good results for the past ten years. In this research, Pd thinlayer on Au nanoparticles were synthesized by electrochemical deposition method. Well-defined Au(111) nanoparticles were synthesized by solution based reduction method. Electrochemical deposition conditions for Pd thinlayer on Au(111) nanoparticles surface were carefully regulated by controlling parameters of cyclic voltammetry. To calculate exact mass and surface area catalytic activities of deposited Pd thinlayer on Au(111) nanoparticle, electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) and mass of the deposited Pd thinlayer were measured by cyclic voltammetry in 0.1 M HClO4 solution. Afterward, catalytic activities of the deposited Pd thinlayer were measured in 0.1 M HClO4 + 0.2 M formic acid solution. In case of less negative deposition potential, the amounts of deposited Pd mass and surface area were small. However, mass and ECSA activity of the deposited Pd to oxidize formic acid were increased.

In this research, microfabrication technique using localized electrochemical deposition (LECD) with ultra short pulses is presented. Electric field is localized near the tool tip end region by applying a few hundreds of nano second pulses. Pt-Ir tip is used as a counter electrode and copper is deposited on the copper substrate in 0.5 M CuSO$_4$ and 0.5 M H$_2$SO$_4$ electrolyte. The effectiveness of this technique is verified by comparison with LECD using DC voltage. The deposition characteristics such as size, shape, surface, and structural density according to applied voltage and pulse duration are investigated. The proper condition is selected from the results of the experiments. Micro columns less than 10 $\mu$m in diameter are fabricated using this technique. The real 3D micro structures such as micro pattern and micro spring can be fabricated by this method. It is suggested that presented method can be used as an easy and inexpensive method for fabrication of microstructure with complex shape.

Nickel is a good electrocatalytic metal and nickel electrodes find many applications in different electrochemical fields. The nickel plated electrodes were prepared by electro-deposition technique on mild steel surface modified with in-situ deposition of nickel titanate. The SEM images shows that the nickel plating on nickel titanate modified mild steel shows better adherence than the nickel plating on bare mild steel surfaces. The extent of polarization of the nickel plating on mild steel with nickel titanate was lower than that of nickel plating on mild steel. The incorporation of nickel titanate on mild steel surface before nickel plating enhances physical, chemical and electrochemical properties of the plating film.

The electrochemical deposition of Pt nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) supports and their catalytic activities for methanol electro-oxidation were investigated. Pt catalysts of 4~12 nm average crystalline size were grown on supports by potential cycling methods. Electro-plating of 12 min time by potential cycling method was sufficient to obtain small crystalline size 4.5 nm particles, showing a good electrochemical activity. The catalysts' loading contents were enhanced by increasing the deposition time. The crystalline sizes and morphology of the Pt/support catalysts were evaluated using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The electrochemical behaviors of the Pt/support catalysts were investigated according to their characteristic current-potential curves in a methanol solution. In the result, the electrochemical activity increased with increased plating time, reaching the maximum at 12 min, and then decreased. The enhanced electroactivity for catalysts was correlated to the crystalline size and dispersion state of the catalysts.

The improved method comprises electrochemically deposition of nickel hydroxide into the sintered nickel plaque cathode from nickel aqueous electrolyte at acid pH in a treating zone containing an anode. The electrochemical impregnation was examined under various conditions. Deposition condition of fine active material was obtained from the impregnation of a high temperature and also high current density. This method also could be decreased swelling and buckling of the plaque. A nickel electrode prepared by electrochemical impregnation is useful as the positive in nickel-cadmium cells. The utilization of the active material indicated almost 100% based on a one electron charge.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are rapidly improving in capacity and life cycle characteristics to meet the requirements of a wide range of applications, such as portable electronics, electric vehicles, and micro- or nanoelectro-mechanical systems. Recently, atomic layer deposition (ALD), one of the vapor deposition methods, has been explored to expand the capability of LIBs by producing near-atomically flat and uniform coatings on the shell of nanostructured electrodes and membranes for conventional LIBs. In this paper, we introduce various ALD coatings on the anode, cathode, and separator materials to protect them and improve their electrochemical and thermomechanical stability. In addition, we discuss the effects of ALD coatings on the three-dimensional structuring and conduction layer through activation of electrochemical reactions and facilitation of fluent charge collection.

The yttria doped ceria (YDC) thin films were fabricated by electrochemical vapor deposition on the porous $\alpha$-Al2O3 substrate. The growth rates of the films obeyed a parabolic rate law, which constant was 259.0 $m^2$/hr at 120$0^{\circ}C$. As deposition temperature (above 110$0^{\circ}C$) increased, dense thin films were enhanced. Mole fraction of XYC13 had an effect upon surface morphologies. Electrical conductivity was increased with deposition temperature. The conductivity of YDC film prepared at XYC13=7.9$\times$10-2 was about 0.097 S/cm at 104$0^{\circ}C$ and the activation energy of conduction was calculated to be 26.6 kcal/mol.

The defect sites on chemical vapor deposition grown graphene are investigated through the selective electrochemical deposition (SED) of Au nanoparticles. For SED of Au nanoparticles, an engineered potential pulse is applied to the working electrode versus the reference electrode, thereby highlighting the defect sites, which are more reactive relative to the pristine surface. Most defect sites decorated by Au nanoparticles are situated along the Cu grain boundaries, implying that the origin of the defects lies in the synthesis of uneven graphene layers on the rough Cu surface.
