본 연구에서는 저온형 연료전지와 고온형 연료전지의 작동 및 구성 요소 측면 단점들을 보완하기 위해 중온 영역에서 작동하는 박막 연료전지를 제작하였다. 박막 연료전지는 이트륨이 도핑된 바륨 지르코네이트(BYZ) 전해질과 백금 수소극/공기극으로 이루어져 있으며, 성능은 $350^{\circ}C$에서 측정하였다. 350nm의 두께를 가지는 백금 수소극은 다공성 기판 위에 스퍼터링 기법을 이용하여 증착하였다. BYZ전해질은 펄스레이저 기법을 이용하여 $1{\mu}m$ 증착하였고, 상부에 스퍼터링 기법을 이용하여 200nm의 두께를 가지는 백금 공기극을 증착하였다. 개회로 전압은 약 0.81V이었고, 최대 출력 성능은 11.9mW/$cm^2$이었다.

구리-바나듐 산화물 양극을 이용하여 $(Cu_{0.5}V_2O_5)$으로 구성된 전 고상의 리튬이차박막전지를 제작하였다. 구리-바나듐 산화물 박막은 reactive DC magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 co-sputtering에 의해 제조하였고 Lipon고체전해질은 순수한 질소 분위기 하에서 RF 스퍼터링으로 제조하였다. XRD분석을 통해 구리-바나듐 산화물 박막이 비정질임을 확인하였고, EC:DMC(1:1 in IM $LiPF_5$)액체전해질을 사용한 반전지 구조에서 그 전기화학적 특성을 고찰하였다. Lipon고체전해질의 이온전도도는 $25^{\circ}C$에서 $1.02\times10^{-6}S/cm$를 나타내었고 전고상 박막전지는 $1.5V\~3.6V$의 전압구간, $50{\mu}A/cm^2$의 전류밀도에서 500싸이클까지 약 $50{\mu}Ah/cm^2{\mu}m$의 방전용량을 유지하였다

This study amis to investigate the functional analysis of anode and cathode materials in Anode supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cell. The concentration polarization of single cell was investigated with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method for the case of the different morphology by using four types of unit cell and discussed to reduce the concentration polarization. The concentration polarization at anode side effected the voltage loss in Anode supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cell and increased contact areas between fuel gas and anode side could reduce the concentration polarization. For intermediate temperature operation, Anode-supported single cells with thin electrolyte layer of YSZ (Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia) were fabricated and short stacks were built and evaluated. We also developed diesel and methane autothermal reforming (ATR) reactors in order to provide fuels to SOFC stacks. Influences of the $H_2O/C$ (steam to carbon ratio), $O_2/C$ (oxygen to carbon ratio) and GHSV (Gas Hourly Space Velocity) on performances of stacks have been investigated. Performance of the stack operated with a diesel reformer was lower than with using hydrogen as a fuel due to lower Nernst voltage and carbon formation at anode side. The stack operated with a natural gas reformer showed similar performances as with using hydrogen. Effects of various reformer parameters such as $H_2O/C$ and $O_2/C$ were carefully investigated. It is found that $O_2/C$ is a sensitive parameter to control stack performance.

The metal-supported solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) was studied. Hydrocarbon fueled operation is necessary to make SOFC system. Different operating characteristics for metal-supported SOFC are used than for conventional ones as hydrocarbon fueled operation. Metal-supported SOFC was successfully fabricated by a high temperature sinter-joining method and the cathode was in-situ sintered. Synthetic gas, which is compounded as the diesel reformate gas composition and low hydrocarbons was completely removed by the diesel reformer. Metal-supported SOFC with synthetic gas was operated and evaluated and its characteristics analyzed. Button cell and $5{\times}5cm^2$ single stack were mainly operated and analyzed. Long-term operation using diesel reformate shows degradation, and degradation analysis was completed in the view of metal oxidation. Solution to increase stability of long-term operation was tried in the way of materials and operating conditions. Finally, $5{\times}5cm^2$ metal-supported single stack using synthetic gas was operated for 1000 hours under the modified condition.

Layered $Li_{1.2}(Fe_{0.16}Mn_{0.32}Ni_{0.32})O_2$ was prepared by the mixed hydroxide method at various temperatures. Xray diffraction (XRD) pattern shows that this material has a ${\alpha}-NaFeO_2$ layered structure with $R{\bar{3}}m$ space group and that cation mixing is reduced with increasing synthesis temperature. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals that nano-sized $Li_{1.2}(Fe_{0.16}Mn_{0.32}Ni_{0.32})O_2$ powder has uniform particle size distribution. X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) analysis is used to study the local electronic structure changes around the Mn, Fe, and Ni atoms in this material. The sample prepared at $700^{\circ}C$ delivers the highest discharge capacity of 207 $mAhg^{-1}$ between 2-4.5 V at 0.1 $mAcm^{-2}$ with good capacity retention of 80% after 20 cycles.

In the fabrication of high performance Blue organic light emitting diode, 2-TNATA[4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine] as hole injection material and NPB[N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine] as hole transport material were deposited on the ITO (Indium Tin Oxide)/Glass substrate by vacuum evaporation. And then, Blue color emission layer was deposited using GDI602 as a host material and GDI691 as a dopant. Finally, small molecule OLED with the structure of ITO/2-TNATA/NPB/GDI602+GDI691/Alq3/LiF/Al was obtained by in-situ deposition of Alq3, LiF and Al as electron transport material, electron injection material and cathode, respectively. Blue OLED fabricated in our experiments showed the color coordinate of CIE(0.14, 0.16) and the maximum luminescence efficiency of 1.06 lm/W at 11 V with the peak emission wavelength of 464 nm.

Using a high pressure homonizer, we report on the electrochemical performance of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}(LTO)$ particles manufactured as anode active material for lithium ion battery. High-pressure synthesis processing is performed under conditions in which the mole fraction of Li/Ti is 0.9, the synthesis pressure is 2,000 bar and the numbers of passings-through are 5, 7 and 10. The observed X-ray diffraction patterns show that pure LTO is manufactured when the number of passings-through is 10. It is found from scanning electron microscopy analysis that the average size of synthesized particles decreases as the number of passings-through increases. $LiCoO_2-based$ active cathode materials are used to fabricate several coin half/full cells and their battery characteristics such as lifetime, rate capability and charge transfer resistance are then estimated, revealing quite good electrochemical performance of the LTO particles as an effective anode active material for lithium secondary batteries.

Pt/Ti/Si 기판 위에 성장시킨 박막 전지용 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막에 고상 전해질 박막 LiPON을 이용하여 전고상형 박막전지를 제작하여 충-방전 시험을 시행하였다. 이렇게 제작된 전고상형 박막전지는 500 사이클 이상까지 평균 15$\mu$Ah의 방전용량을 나타내었으나 초기 사이클 영역부터 방전 용량의 감소가 일어나기 시작했다. 박막 전지의 방전 용량 감소에 따른 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막의 구조적 특성 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 고분해능 현미경 분석을 시행하였다. 충-방전을 하지 않은 초기의 산화 바나듐 박막은 입계를 갖지 않고 다결정 특성을 보이지 않는 완전한 비정질 특성을 보였고 이는 TED 결과와 일치하였다. 그러나 450번의 반복적인 충-방전을 시행한 후의 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막 내에는 microcrystalline 형태의 산화 바나듐의 형성됨을 고분해능 전자 현미경 분석을 통해 발견할 수 있었다. 비정질 산화바나듐 박막의 방전 용량 감소의 원인인 Li의 비가역적 탈-삽입은 비정질 내에 형성된 microcrystalline에 의해 유발된다고 사료된다. 또한 LiPON 전해질 박막과 산화 바나듐 박막사이의 계면에 Li 이온과 산화바나듐과의 반응에 의해 형성된 계면 층에 발견할 수 있었는데 이러한 계면 층 역시 Li 확산과 계면 저항에 영향을 주어 방전 용량 감소에 원인으로 작용한다.

Yttria-stablized zirconia (YSZ) is the most commonly used electrolyte material, but the reduction in working temperature leads to insufficient ionic conductivity. Ceria based electrolytes (GDC) are more attractive in terms of conductivity at low temperature, but these materials are well known to be reducible at very low oxygen partial pressure. The reduction of electrolyte resistivity is necessary to overcome cell performance losses. So, thin YSZ/GDC bilayer technology seems suitable for decreasing the electrolyte resistance at lower operating temperatures. Bilayer electrolytes composed of a galdolinium-doped $CeO_2$ ($Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{1.95}$, GDC) layer and yttria-stabilized $ZrO_2$ (YSZ) layer with various thicknesses were deposited by RF sputtering and E-beam evaporation. The bilayer electrolytes were deposited between porous Ni-GDC anode and LSM cathode for anode-supported single cells. Thin film structure and surface morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), using $CuK{\alpha}$-radiation in the range of 2ce morphol$^{\circ}C$. The XRD patterns exhibit a well-formed cubic fluorite structure, and sharp lines of XRD peaks can be observed, which indicate a single solid solution. The morphology and size of the prepared particles were investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The performance of the cells was evaluated over $500{\sim}800^{\circ}C$, using humidified hydrogen as fuel, and air as oxidant.

Organic light emitting diode (OLED) is currently the focus of intense interest in the field of photonics. It is attractive for the in low-operating voltage, low power consumption, easy fabrication and low cost. A typical OLED consists of one or more organic layers sandwiched between a high work function anode, such as indium tin oxide (ITO), and a low work function cathode such as Ca, Mg:Ag, and Al. Tris-(8-hydroxy)quinolinealuminum ($Alq_3$) has taken a prominent position in the development of OLED due to its relative stability as an electron transporting and emitting material. We investigated an efficiency improvement of the OLED depending on thickness variation of $Alq_3$.
