This study introduces a facile strategy to prepare metal oxide/conducting polymer nanocomposites that may have promising applications in energy storage devices. Ploy aniline/nano wire manganese dioxide (PANI/NwMnO₂) was synthesized by cyclic voltammetry on glassy carbon electrode. Morphology and structure of the composite, pure PANI, MnO₂ nanowires were fully characterized using XRD and SEM analysis. Electrochemical studies shows excellent synergistic effect between PANI and MnO₂ nanowires which results in its capacitance increase and cycle stability against PANI electrode. Specific capacitances of PANI/NwMnO₂ and PANI were 456 and 190 F/g respectively. The electrochemical performance of electrodes studied using cyclic voltammetry, Galvanostatic charge/discharge and impedance spectroscopy.

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in quasi one-dimensional nanostructural systems, because of their numerous potential applications in various areas, such as materials sciences, electronics, optics, magnetism and energy storage. Specifically, zinc oxide (ZnO) is recognized as one of the most promising oxide semiconductor materials, because of its good optical, electrical, and piezoelectrical properties. The ZnO nanorods were synthesized using vapor-solid (VS) mechanism on soda lime glass substrate without the presence of metal catalyst. ZnO nanorods were prepared thermal evaporation of a Zn powder at 500. As-fabricated ZnO nanorods had an average diameter and length of 40nm and 3$\mu\textrm{m}$. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the ZnO nanorods were single crystalline with the growth direction perpendicular to the (101) lattice plane. The influences of reaction time on the formation of the ZnO nanorods were investigated. The Photoluminescence measurements showed that the ZnO nanorods had a strong ultraviolet emission at around 380nm and a green emission at around 500nm.

Flammable compounds are indispensible in domestic as well as in industrial fields as fuel, solvent and raw materials. The fire and explosion properties necessary for safe storage, transport, process design and operation of handling flammable substances are lower explosive limits(LEL), upper explosive limits(UEL), flash point, fire point, AIT(auto ignition temperature), MIE(minimum ignition energy), MOC(minimum oxygen concentration) and heats of combustion.

Electrochemical capacitors are becoming attractive energy storage systems particularly for applications involving high power requirements such as hybrid systems consisting of batteries and electrochemical capacitors for electric vehicle propulsion. Both of amorphous cobalt oxide and manganese dioxide were prepared by sol-gel process reported in our previous work. Nanostructured supramolecular oligomer of 1,5-diaminoanthraquinone(DAAQ) coated metal oxides were successfully prepared by electrochemical oxidation from an acidic non-aqueous medium. We established process parameters of the technique for the formation of nano-structured materials. Furthermore, improved the capacitive properties of the nano structured metal oxide electrodes using controlled solution chemistry. $CoO_2$ and $MnO_2$-based composite electrode showed relatively good electrochemical behaviors in acidic electrolyte system with respect to specific capacity and scan rate dependency.

Covalent functionalization of a $Zn_{12}O_{12}$ nano-cage with $CO_2$ molecule in terms of energetic, geometry, and electronic properties was investigated by density functional theory method. For chemisorption configurations, the adsorption energy of $CO_2$ on the $Zn_{12}O_{12}$ nano-cage for the first $CO_2$ was calculated -1.25 eV with a charge transfer of 1.00|e| from the nano-cage to the $CO_2$ molecule. The results show that $CO_2$ molecule was significantly detected by pristine $Zn_{12}O_{12}$ nano-cage, therefore the nano-cage can be used as $CO_2$ storage. Also, more efficient binding could not be achieved by increasing the $CO_2$ concentration. For Physisorption configurations, HOMO-LUMO gap of the configurations has not changed, while slight changes have been observed in the chemisorption configurations.

In order to realize the commercial application of HTSC materials, it is necessary to develop the fabrication process of high Tc oxide superconductor materials with desired shape and for practical application and high critical current density as well as good mechanical strength which can withstand high lorenz force generated at high magnetic field. Much studies have been concentrated to develop the fabrication technique for high critical current density but still there are a lot of gap which should be overcome for large scale application of HTSC materials at liquid nitrogen temperature. Recently some new fabrication techniques have been developed for YBaCuO bulk superconductor with high mechanical strength and critical current density. In this project, the establishment of fabrication condition and additive effects of second elements were examined so as to improve the related properties to the practical use of YBaCuO superconductor, and we reported the production of the YBaCuO high Tc superconductor by the pyrolysis method.

During the past few years, a great deal of attention has been directed to the application of superconductivity to the electrical systems such as superconducting power transmission lines, superconducting magnet energy storage and so on. Yet in order to develop the practical model of these electrical equiqments utilizing suprconductivety and other phenomena at cryogenic temperautre, it is necessary to know the dielectric behaviour of insulating materials at cryogenic temperature in view of reliability, safety and economy of these machines. Investigation of dielectric properties of cryogenic liquids is very important due to the dual role of those as the dielectric and cooling medium. In this study, we investigated results measured over several kinds of dielectric characteristics of liquid nitrogen taking into consideration for application of high Tc superconductor. Dependence of breakdown voltage of gap width, polarity and pressure is reported in this paper and time delay characteristics of breakdown is also the subject of this discussion.
