Manganese dioxide is the material which has a good characteristic property for a secondary cell. We have surveyed on rechargeable battery of zink-manganese dioxide using aqueous solution and we also surveyed on redox reversibility of zink-manganese dioxide for checking up possibility for a secondary cell. We have found out to be active for charging and discharging of those.

본 논문에서는 고체 리듐 전지를 개발하기 위하여 poly(ethylene oxide) [PEO] 에 $LiClO_4$, poly (vinylidene fluoride) [PVDF] 및 가소제로 propylene carbonate [PC] 와 ethylene carbonate[EC] 등을 혼합여 고분자 저해질을 제조하였다. 또한 고체 리듐 전지용 정극으로써 우수한 특성이 기대되는 $Li_xV_3O_8$을 졸-겔법에 의해 합성하여 $Li_xV_3O_8$SPE/Li cell 의 전기화학적 특성을 측정하였다. 고분자 matrix는 PEO와 PVDE를 혼합 사용한 결과 $PEO_4 PVDF_4LiCIO_4PC_5EC_5$ 고분자 전해질이 상온에서 $5.2 {\times} 10{-3}$ S/cm 의 높은 이온 전도도를 나타냈으며 리듐 이온 transference number는 0.3이었다. 졸-겔법에 의해 제조된 $Li_xV_3O_8$을 사용한 $Li_xV_3O_8$SPE/Li cell의 방전시 cell 저항이 방전 초기에는 비소한 증가를 하다가 방전 말기 전압인 2.0V에서 크게 증가하였다. $Li_xV_3O_8$ composite 정극의 첫 번째 방전 용량은 295㎃h/g이었으며 8번째 충방전 싸이클부터 방전 용량이 안정화 되었고 15번째 방전 용량도 212㎃h/g으로 고체 전지용 정극으로써 우수한 특성을 보였다.

Structural volume change occurring on the Si-based anode battery materials during alloying/dealloying with lithium is noticed to be a major drawback responsible for a limited cycle life. Silicon monoxide has been reported to show relatively improved cycling performance compared to Si-containing materials for rechargeable lithium batteries, due to the structural buffering role of in-situ formed $Li_2O$ and lithium silicate during the reaction of silicon monoxide and lithium. Here we report improved cycling ability of interfacially stabilized Si-$SiO_2$-graphite composite anode using silane-based electrolyte additive for rechargeable lithium batteries, which includes low cost silicon dioxide for structural stabilization and graphite for enhanced conductivity.

Recently $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ has been consistently examined and investigated by scientists because of its high lithium storage capacity, which exceeds beyond the conventional theoretical capacity based on conventional chemical concepts. Consequently, $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ is considered as one of the most promising cathode candidates for next generation in Li rechargeable batteries. Yet the mechanism and the origin of the overcapacity have not been clarified. Previously, many authors have demonstrated simultaneous oxygen evolution during the first delithiation. However, it may only explain the high capacity of the first charge process, and not of the subsequent cycles. In this work, we report a clarified interpretation of the structural evolution of $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$, which is the key element in understanding its anomalously high capacity. We identify how the structural evolution of $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ occurs upon the electrochemical cycling through careful study of electrochemical profiles, ex-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD), HR-TEM, Raman spectroscopy, and first principles calculation. Moreover, we successfully separated the structural change at subsequent cycles (mainly cation rearrangement) from the first charge process (mainly oxygen evolution with Li extraction) by intentionally synthesizing sample with large particle size. Consequently, the intermediate states of structural evolution could be well resolved. All observations made through various tools lead to the result that spinel-like cation arrangement and lithium environment are created and embedded in layered framework during repeated electrochemical cycling.

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are developed to be operated with two kinds of power source (Diesel Engine and Electric Motor with Rechargeable High Voltage Battery Pack). HEVs for military vehicle require high reliability to provide stable powers under serious environment such as vibration and shock. To ensure normal operation of battery pack under serious environment such as vibration and shock, the high voltage battery pack needs to have appropriate dynamic characteristics. This paper presents a design procedure for high voltage battery pack with such characteristics. An isolator design is proposed to reduce vibration and shock. Associated random vibration and shock response of the high voltage battery pack are simulated under conditions suggested by MIL specifications. Its dynamic characteristics and vibration and shock responses are validated with experiments.

$LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ cathode materials prepared from different precursors in lithium rechargeable batteries were characterized by various analytical methods. $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ powders were synthesized by using solid-state reaction method and their physical and chemical properties were analyzed by XRD, SEM, particle size analyzer and TCP-AES. These materials showed different crystallinity, particle size, surface morphology and chemical composition. Also, the charge/discharge cycling of $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ electrodes was carried out under various cut-off voltages and it showed different behaviors. It was found that the electrochemical cyclability of $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ was strongly related to its crystallinity.

In this review article, we are going to explain the recent development of lithium secondary batteries for a cellular phone. There are three kinds of rechargeable batteries for cellular phones such as nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride, and lithium ion or lithium ion polymer. The lithium secondary battery is one of the most excellent battery in the point of view of energy density. It means very small and light one among same capacity batteries is the lithium secondary battery. The market volume of lithium secondary batteries increases steeply about 15% annually. The trend of R&D is focused on novel cathode materials including $LiFePO_4$, novel anode materials such as lithium titanate, silicon, and tin, elecrolytes, and safety insurance.

Recently, eco-friendly electric motorcycles have been considered to replace aging gasoline motorcycles to reduce the amount of suspended fine dust in air. However, existing rechargeable battery-powered electric motorcycles have been found unacceptable by users because of their many limitations, such as long charging time, short travel distance per charge, and low driving speed. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional electric motorcycles, this paper proposes an exchangeable battery-powered electric motorcycle and a new frame shape for housing the exchangeable battery. The proposed frame is similar to that of current electric motorcycles; however, the shape and position of the saddle support, battery, and controller mount section are redesigned. The safety of the presented frame is verified through static and dynamic analyses using ABAQUS. In particular, the dynamic analysis is conducted under the most extreme condition among the various operating situations, thus confirming the robustness of the proposed frame design.

LiMn2O4 thin fiolm cathodes for Li-ion secondary battery were fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering technique. As-deposited films were amorphous. A spinel structure could not be obtained LiMn2O4 films by in-situ thermal annealing. After post thermal annealing over $700^{\circ}C$ in oxygen atmosphere, LiMn2O4 films prepared above 100 W r.f. power could be crystallized into a spinel structure. The electrochemical property of the LiMn2O4 film cathodes was tested in a Li/1 M LiClO4 in PC/LiMn2O4 cell. From cyclic voltammetry at scan rate of 2mV/sec of 2.5~4.5V, LiMn2O4 electrode prepared by post annealing at 75$0^{\circ}C$ showed good initial capacity. LiMn2O4 electrode prepared by post annealing at 80$0^{\circ}C$ showed the best crycling performance.

현대사회에서 축전지라 불리우는 2차 전지는 그 용도가 중요하지만, 비선형적이고 다양한 파라메타에 따른 복잡한 특성 때문에 그 사용법에 있어서 발전에 제한을 받아왔다 [1][2]. 각 배터리셀의 건강상태(SOH)를 실시간으로 정확히 파악하는 것은 장비의 안정된 운전과 원활한 축전지관리를 위하여 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 축전지의 내부컨덕턴스를 측정하는 간접적인 방법에 의하여 장비의 운전이나 축전지의 수명에 영향을 주지 않고 축전지의 건강상태(SOH)를 실시간으로 진단하는 방법을 제시하고, 실제로 120개의 축전지에 대한 컨덕턴스 자료에 의하여 건강상태를 진단하고 교체시기를 판단한다.
