Sulfur-Iodine (SI) cycle, which thermochemically splits water to hydrogen and oxygen through three stages of Bunsen reaction, HI decomposition, and $H_2SO_4$ decomposition, seems a promising process to produce hydrogen massively. Among them, the decomposition of $H_2SO_4$ ($H_2SO_4=H_2O+SO_2+1/2O_2$) requires high temperature heat over $800^{\circ}C$ such as the heat from concentrated solar energy or a very high temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor. Because of harsh reaction conditions of high temperature and pressure with extremely corrosive reactants and products, there have been scarce and limited number of data reported on the pressurized $H_2SO_4$ decomposition. This work focuses whether the $H_2SO_4$ decomposition can occur at high pressure in a noble-metal reactor, which possibly resists corrosive acidic chemicals and possesses catalytic activity for the reaction. Decomposition reactions were conducted in a Pt-lined tubular reactor without any other catalytic species at conditions of $800^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ and 0 bar (ambient pressure) to 10 bar with 95 wt% $H_2SO_4$. The Pt-lined reactor was found to endure the corrosive pressurized condition, and its inner surface successfully carried out a catalytic role in decomposing $H_2SO_4$ to $SO_2$ and $O_2$. This preliminary result has proposed the availability of noble metal-lined reactors for the high temperature, high pressure sulfuric acid decomposition.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the photo-catalytic efficiency of $TiO_2$ nanotube with respect to the distribution of anatase phase which can be changed by the annealing temperature of $TiO_2$ nanotube. $TiO_2$ nanotube was fabricated by the anodization method in the 0.5 wt% HF electrolyte. And then the $TiO_2$ nanotube was annealed at temperatures ranging from $380^{\circ}C$ to $780^{\circ}C$ in dry oxygen ambient for 2 h. For the photo-catalytic water-splitting tests, the photocurrent density was measured as a function of applied potential with a potentiostat using a Ag/AgCl reference, Pt counter electrode, and 1 M KOH electrolyte under illumination of UV by a Xe arc lamp of 1 KW. According to the UV photo-catalytic water-splitting tests, the nanotube annealed at $560^{\circ}C$ was found to show the highest photocurrent density.

In this study, a flat-type photocatalytic reactor is applied under solar irradiation for simultaneous treatment of target pollutants: reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and oxidation of EDCs (BPA, EE2, E2). An immobilized type of photocatalyst was fabricated to have self-grown nanotubes on its surface in order to overcome limitations of powdery photocatalyst. Moreover, Ti mesh form was chosen as substrate and modified to have both larger surface area and photocatalyst content. Ti mesh was anodized at 50V and $25^{\circ}C$ for 30min in the mixed electrolytes ($NH_4F-H_2O-C_2H_6O_2$) and annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours in ambient oxygen to have anatase structure. Surface characterization was done with SEM and XRD methodologies. Fabricated NTT was applied to water treatment, and coexisting Cr(VI) and organics (EDCs) enhanced each other's reactions by scavenging holes and electrons and thus impeding recombination. Also, several experiments were conducted outdoor under direct sunlight and it was observed that both solar-tracking and applying modified photocatalyst were proven to enhance reaction efficiency.

The resistive random access memory (ReRAM) has several advantages to apply next generation non-volatile memory device, because of fast switching time, long retentions, and large memory windows. The high mobility of monolayered graphene showed several possibilities for scale down and electrical property enhancement of memory device. In this study, the monolayered graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition was transferred to $SiO_2$ (100 nm)/Si substrate and glass by using PMMA coating method. For formation of metal-oxide nanoparticles, we used a chemical reaction between metal films and polyamic acid layer. The 50-nm thick BPDA-PDA polyamic acid layer was coated on the graphene layer. Through soft baking at $125^{\circ}C$ or 30 min, solvent in polyimide layer was removed. Then, 5-nm-thick indium layer was deposited by using thermal evaporator at room temperature. And then, the second polyimide layer was coated on the indium thin film. After remove solvent and open bottom graphene layer, the samples were annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ or 1 hr by using furnace in $N_2$ ambient. The average diameter and density of nanoparticle were depending on annealing temperature and times. During annealing process, the metal and oxygen ions combined to create $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle in the polyimide layer. The electrical properties of $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle ReRAM such as current-voltage curve, operation speed and retention discussed for applictions of transparent and flexible hybrid ReRAM device.

외핵은 대부분 철로 이루어져 있으나 외핵의 밀도를 10% 정도 줄일 수 있는 희석 원소가 존재해야 한다. 외핵에서 존재할 가능성이 있는 가벼운 희석원소가 수소와 산소라는 가정 하에, 고압 하에서 수소의 열역학적 안정성을 적철석($Fe_2O_3$) + 수소($H_2$) $\to$ 괴타이트(FeOOH) + 철(Fe) 반응관계식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 열역학적 해석 결과, 상온 및 상압에서 이러한 화학반응의 깁스자유에너지는 12.62 kJ/mol로 계산되었다. 상온에서 압력이 증가함에 따라 깁스자유에너지 값은 감소하여 0.068 GPa에서 '0 kJ/mol'을 나타내었다. 압력이 증가함에 따라 깁스자유에너지 값은 일정한 비율로 점차적으로 감소하여 200 GPa에서는 -208.26 kJ/mol을 나타내었다. 이러한 열역학적 분석 결과로 볼 때 고압 하에서 수소와 철산화물이 반응하여 철원소와 철 수산화물을 생성하는 환원반응이 선호되며, 수소와 산소가 철수산화물의 형태로 원시지구 핵 내에 존재하게 되었을 가능성을 배제할 수 없다.

The amorphous $Bi_5Nb_3O_{15}$ film grown at room temperature under an oxygen-plasma sputtering ambient (BNRT-$O_2$ film) has a hydrophobic surface with a surface energy of $35.6\;mJm^{-2}$, which is close to that of the orthorhombic pentacene ($38\;mJm^{-2}$, resulting in the formation of a good pentacene layer without the introduction of an additional polymer layer. This film was very flexible, maintaining a high capacitance of $145\;nFcm^{-2}$ during and after 10s bending cycles with a small curvature radius of 7.5 mm. This film was optically transparent. Furthermore, the flexible, pentacene-based, organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) fabricated on the polyethersulphone substrate at room temperature using a BNRT-$O_2$ film as a gate insulator exhibited a promising device performance with a high field effect mobility of $0.5\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, an on/off current modulation of $10^5$ and a small subthreshold slope of $0.2\;Vdecade^{-1}$ under a low operating voltage of -5 V. This device also maintained a high carrier mobility of $0.45\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ during the bending with a small curvature radius of 9 mm. Therefore, the BNRT-$O_2$ film is considered a promising material for the gate insulator of the flexible, pentacene-based OTFT.

The degradation of aqueous oxytetracycline (OTC) from an aqueous solution antibiotic using H₂O₂/Fe²⁺ process was studied in one 1 L batch chemical reactor. The extent of OTC degradation (20 mg/L) was investigated from a known initial pH solution, temperature and the type of catalyst (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺) and for various initial concentrations of OTC, H₂O₂ and Fe²⁺. The degradation efficiency achieved was found to be very important (90.82% and 90.63%) at initial pH solution of 3 and 4, respectively. However, the type of catalyst and the reaction temperature had a slight impact on the final degradation of OTC. The results showed that the OTC removal increased with increasing initial H₂O₂ concentration in the range of 70 to 150 mg/L and initial Fe²⁺ concentrations in the range of 2 to 5 mg/L. The highest degradation efficiency obtained at ambient temperature was 90.95% with initial concentration of OTC of 10 mg/L, H₂O₂ = 150 mg/L and Fe²⁺ = 5 mg/L. Moreover, biodegradability improved from 0.04 to 0.36 and chemical oxygen demand degradation was 78.35% after 60 min of treatment. This study proved that Fenton process can be used for pretreatment of wastewater contaminated by OTC before a biological treatment.

아연공기전지는 공기중의 산소를 사용하므로 cathode의 재활용이 가능하다는 장점이 있으며 아연의 이론용량이 820(mAh/g)로 상당히 높다 또한 아연공기전지는 저율방전에서 방전말기까지 아주 평탄한 방전전압을 유지한다. 그러나, 고율방전에서는 방전전압이 낮아지고 에너지가 감소하며 cathode에 포함되어 있는 PTF도의 함량에 따라 저항 및 기공율에 많은 변화를 보이고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전지의 에너지, 방전용량, 방전전압, DC저항, GSM, ASTM에 의한 기공율 측정을 통해 cathode내의 PTFE함량이 아연공기전지에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 그 결과 결합제의 함량이 감소할수록 전지의 특성이 향상되었으며 $15wt\%$일 때 가장 우수한 전지특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

Ferroelectric Bi$_{3.35}$Sm$_{0.65}$Ti$_{3}$O$_{12}$(BSmT) thin films were synthesized using a sol-gel process. Bi(TMHD)$_{3}$, Sm$_{5}$(O$^{i}$Pr)13, Ti(O$^{i}$Pr)4 were used as the precursors, which were dissolved in 2­methoxyethanol. The BSmT thin films were deposited on Pt/TiO$_{x}$/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates by spin­coating. The electrical properties of the thin films were enhanced using rapid thermal annealing process (RTA) at 600 $^{circ}$C for 1 min in O$_{2}$. Thereafter, the thin films were annealed from 600 to 720 $^{circ}$C in oxygen ambient for 1 hr, which was followed by post-annealed for 1 hr after depositing a Pt electrode to enhance the electrical properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the crystallinity and surface morphology of layered perovskite phase, respectively. The remanent polarization value of the BSmT thin films annealed at 720 $^{circ}$C after the RTA treatment was 35.31 $\mu$C/cmz at an applied voltage of 5 V.

연소기 헤드부는 극저온 유체인 액체산소가 고압으로 작동하고, 동시에 연소기의 추력으로 인한 하중을 받기 때문에, 극저온에서의 헤드의 구조 안정성 해석을 위한 재료의 변형 거동 예측은 매우 중요하다. 헤드부의 변형 거동을 예측하기 위해 재료의 저온에서의 인장 변형 거동을 묘사할 수 있는 구성 방정식을 Kocks의 전위 에너지 장벽 모델을 바탕으로 열적 요소와 비열적 요소의 결합으로 구성하였으며, 극저온에서 장애물들의 증가로 인한 응력의 열적 요소의 증가를 묘사하기 위해서, 장애물로 인해 발생하는 응력 요소를 Ramberg-Osgood 형태의 식으로 구성하였다. 본 모델은 극저온과 상온의 넓은 온도 영역에서 재료의 변형 거동을 잘 예측하였다.
