Electrical Chracteristics of ZnO doped with Al$_2$O$_3$were investigated using complexe impedence measurements. The electrical conductivity of ZnO samples increased whithin 0.5mol% of Al$_2$O$_3$ doping, but decreased abode 0.5mol%. The increase and decrease of electrical conductivity seem to be the effect of Al$_2$O$_3$ doner doping and increasement of the number of grain boundary ZnO, respectively.

$LiFePO_4$ is a potential candidate for the cathode material of the lithium polymer batteries. $LiFePO_4$ cathode active materials were synthesized by coating on the $LiFePO_4$ was tried using $TiO_2$ and corbon in oreder to increase cyclic performance and electronic conductivity. Highly dispersed on the particles enhances the electronic conductivity and increases the capacity. For lithium polymer battery applications, $LiFePO_4$/SPE/Li and $LiFePO_4$-$TiO_2$/SPE/Li 'cells were characterized electrochemically by cyclic volatammetry and charge/discharge cycling. The $LiFePO_4$-carbon-$TiO_2$ cathode in PVDF-PC-EC-$LiCIO_4$ electrolyte showed high capacity at high current density.

The electrical conductivities of the yttria (8mol%) stabilizedzirconia-ceria solid solutions were measured as a function of oxygen partial between 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$ using 4-probe d.c. method Under pure oxygen atmosphere the oxygen ionic conductivity of CeO2-ZrO2 decreased with the concentration of CeO2 Under reducing condition electronic conduction due to the redox equilibrium of Ce ion was observed. Total ionic and electronic conductivities fitted by a defect model enabled to determine the electronic transference number(tei) which increased with the concentration of CeO2 and with the degree of reduction.

Conductivities of polycrystalline ceria doped with several rare earth oxides were measured by AC admittance and DC four probe method. The conductions were separated into grain and grain boundary contributions using the complex admittance technique as well as grain size dependence of conductivity. The grain size dependence of polycrystalline conductivity, which can be adequately described by the so-called brick layer model, appears to give a more reliable measure of the grain conductivity compared to the complex admittance method. Polycrystalline resistivity(1/conductivity) increases linearly with the reciprocal of grain size. The intercept of resistivity vs. inverse grain size plot gives a measure of the grain resistivity and the slope gives a measure of the grain boundary resistivity. It was also noted that errors involved in the analysis of experimental data may be different between the complex admittance method and the impedance method. A greater resolution of the spectra was found in the complex admittance method, insofar as the present work is concerned, suggesting that the commonly used equivalent circuit may require re-evaluation.

To improve mean-life and reliability of power cable, we have investigated volume resistivity and thermal conductivity showed by changing the content of acetylene black which is the component parts of semiconductive shield in underground power transmission cable. The sheets were primarily kneaded in their pellet form material samples for 5 minutes on rollers ranging between 70[$^{\circ}C$] and 100[$^{\circ}C$]. Then they were produced as sheets after pressing for 20 minutes at 180[$^{\circ}C$] with a pressure of 200[kg/cm]. The content of conductive acetylene black was the variable, and their contents were 20, 30 and 40[wt%], respectively. Volume resistivity of specimens was measured by volume resistivity meter after 10 minutes in the preheated oven of both $25\pm1[^{\circ}C]$ and $90\pm1[^{\circ}C]$. Thermal conductivity was measured by Nano Flash Diffusivity. The measurement temperatures of thermal conductivity using Nano Flash Diffusivity were both 25[$^{\circ}C$] and 55[$^{\circ}C$]. From these experimental results, volume resistivity was high according to an increase of the content of acetylene black. And thermal conductivity was increased to an increase of the content of acetylene black. And thermal conductivity were increased by heating rate because volume of materials was expanded according to rise in temperature.

To improve mean-life and reliability of power cable, we have investigated specific heat (Cp) and thermal conductivity of XLPE insulator and semiconductive materials in 154kV underground power transmission cable. Specimens were respectively made of sheet form with EVA, EEA and EBA added 30wt%, carbon black, and the other was made of sheet form by cutting XLPE insulator in 154kV power cable. Specific heat (Cp) and thermal conductivity were· measured by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and Nano Flash Diffusivity. Specific-heat measurement temperature ranges of XLPE insulator were from 20[$^{\circ}C$] to 90[$^{\circ}C$], and the heating rate was 1[$^{\circ}C$/min]. And the measurement temperatures of thermal conductivity were 25[$^{\circ}C$}], 55[$^{\circ}C$] and 90[$^{\circ}C$]. In case of semiconductive materials, the measurement temperature ranges of specific heat were from 20[$^{\circ}C$] to 60[$^{\circ}C$], and the heating rate was 1[$^{\circ}C$/min]. And the measurement temperatures of thermal conductivity were 25[$^{\circ}C$] and 55[$^{\circ}C$]. From these experimental results, both specific heat and thermal conductivity were increased by heating rate because volume of materials was expanded according to rise in temperature.

When thermal conductivity of rock is measured with PEDB (Portable Electronic Divided Bar) in a laboratory, it can be greatly influenced by the change of room temperature. Therefore, measuring the thermal conductivity in a thermo-hygrostat is necessary, where it can remain in its constant temperature and humidity condition. In this study, a system for thermal conductivity measurement in a thermo-hygrostat has been set up and the thermal conductivities for the 45 samples collected from GH3 and GH4 boreholes in Ulleung Island have been measured both in dry and saturated conditions. Also, the correlations between those thermal conductivities, density, and effective porosity have been discussed. As a result of correlation analysis among the thermal conductivity, density, and effective porosity, it showed higher correlation with dry samples than saturated samples. Especially, thermal conductivity ratio between saturated and dry conditions shows very high correlation ($R^2=0.90$) with effective porosity.

In this paper, we investigated the relations between dispersion of CNTs (carbon nanotubes) and electrical conductivity in the CNT/PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) composite film. By adding hydrophobic CNTs as filler into the PVDF matrix, we fabricated hydrophobic and electrically conducting polymer coating film. Dispersion of CNTs in the CNT/PVDF composite film plays a significant role in terms of electrical conductivity and wetting property. Spray coating method was used to form the CNT/PVDF composite films by injecting the dispersed CNTs in the PVDF solution with different weight ratios from 0.7 wt% to 7 wt%. We investigated the electrical properties and contact angles of the CNT/PVDF composite films with the CNT concentration. Finally we discussed the conducting mechanism and feasibility of the CNT/PVDF composite film for the conducting polymer films.

The fabrication process and thermal properties of 50∼76vo1% SiCp/Al metal matrix composites (MMCs) were investigated. The 50∼76vo1% SiCp/Al MMCs fabricated by pressure infiltration casting process showed that thermal conductivities were 85∼170W/mK and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) were ranged 10∼6ppm/K. Specially, the thermal conductivity and CTE of 71vo1%SiCp/Al MMCs were ranged l15∼156W/mK and 6∼7ppm/K, respectively, which showed a improved thermal properties than the conventional electronic packaging materials such as ceramics and metals.

By using numerical analysis methods, through transmission type pulsed eddy current (PEC) testing is modeled and PEC signal responses due to varying material conductivity, permeability, thickness, lift-off and pulse width are investigated. Results show that the peak amplitude of PEC signal gets reduced and the time to reach the peak amplitude is increased as the material conductivity, permeability, and specimen thickness increase. Also, they indicate that the pulse width needs to be shorter when evaluating the material conductivity and the plate thickness using the peak amplitude, and when the pulse width is long, the peak time is found to be more useful. Other results related to lift-off variation are reported as well.
