CO2 감지용 La2O3-SnO2 계 후막형 소자를 제조하여 CO2가스에 대한 기초 감지 특성을 조사하였고, 감지 분말의 입자크기와 제조방법에 따른 감도 변화를 고찰하였다. 후막 소자는 40$0^{\circ}C$의 작동온도와 4wt.%의 La2O3가 첨가되 srjt에서 가장 좋은 감도를 나타내었고, 낮은 습도영역에서 우수한 감지 특성을 보였다. 분말 혼합법에 의해 제조된 소자에 있어서 La2O3와SnO2 분말의 입자가 미세할수록 우수한 감도를 나타내었고, La2O3의 입도가 SnO2의 입도 보다 감도에 더 큰 영향을 주었다. SnO2 후막 표면에 La 용액을 코팅하여 제조된 센서는 가장 우수한 CO2 감도특성을 보였다.

The titled properties on reduction of the perovskite $LaBO_3$ (B = Fe, Co, Ni) have been investigated by means of temperature-programmed reduction, isothermal reduction and X-ray diffraction methods. Nominal composition of $LaFeO_{3.18},\;LaCoO_{3.00}\;and\;LaNiO_{2.92}$ are determined. Reduction reaction of these mixed oxides differed according to B-site transition metal and thermal stability on reduction decreased as following order: $LaFeO_{3.18}$ > $LaCoO_{3.00}$ > $LaNiO_{2.92}$. From the results of isothermal reaction, kinetics on reduction of the perovskite has been discussed in detail.

Impedancemetric $NO_x$ (NO and $NO_2$) gas sensors were designed with a stacked-layer structure and fabricated using $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$ (x = 0, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8 and 1) as the receptor material and $Li_{1.3}Al_{0.3}Ti_{1.7}(PO_4)_3$ plates as the solid-electrolyte transducer material. The $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$ layers were prepared with a polymeric precursor method that used ethylene glycol as the solvent, acetyl acetone as the chelating agent, and polyvinylpyrrolidone as the polymer additive. The effects of the Co concentration on the structural, morphological, and $NO_x$ sensing properties of the $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$ powders were investigated with powder X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and its response to 20~250 ppm of $NO_x$ at $400^{\circ}C$ (for 1 kHz and 0.5 V), respectively. When the as-prepared precursors were calcined at $700^{\circ}C$, only a single phase was detected, which corresponded to a perovskite-type structure. The XRD results showed that as the Co concentration of the $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$powders increased, the crystal structure was transformed from an orthorhombic phase to a rhombohedral phase. Moreover, the $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$ powders with $0{\leq}x<0.8$ had a rhombohedral symmetry. The size of the particles in the $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3$powders increased from 0.1 to $0.5{\mu}m$ as the Co concentration increased. The sensing performance of the stack-structured $LaCr_xCo_{1-x}O_3/Li_{1.3}Al_{0.3}Ti_{1.7}(PO_4)_3$ sensors was found to divide the impedance component between the resistance and capacitance. The response of these sensors to NO gas was more sensitive than that to $NO_2$ gas. Compared to other impedancemetric sensors, the $LaCr_{0.8}Co_{0.2}O_3/Li_{1.3}Al_{0.3}Ti_{1.7}(PO_4)_3$ sensor exhibited good reversibility and reliable sensingresponse properties for $NO_x$ gases.

The micro emulsion method has been successfully used for preparing perovskite LaCoO₃ with uniform, fine-shaped nanoparticles showing high activity as electro catalysts in oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs). They are, therefore, promising candidates for the air-cathode in metal-air rechargeable batteries. Since the activity of a catalyst is highly dependent on its specific surface area, nanoparticles of the perovskite catalyst are desirable for catalyzing both oxygen reduction and evolution reactions. Herein, LaCoO₃ powder was also prepared by sol-gel method for comparison, with a broad particle distribution and high agglomeration. The electro catalytic properties of LaCoO₃ and LaCoO₃-carbon Super P mixture layers toward the ORR were studied comparatively using the rotating disk electrode technique in 0.1 M KOH electrolyte to elucidate the effect of carbon Super P. Koutecky-Levich theory was applied to acquire the overall electron transfer number (n) during the ORR, calculated to be ~3.74 for the LaCoO₃-Super P mixture, quite close to the theoretical value (4.0), and ~2.7 for carbon-free LaCoO₃. A synergistic effect toward the ORR is observed when carbon is present in the LaCoO₃ layer. Carbon is assumed to be more than an additive, enhancing the electronic conductivity of the oxide catalyst. It is suggested that ORRs, catalyzed by the LaCoO₃-Super P mixture, are dominated by a 2+2-electron transfer pathway to form the final, hydroxyl ion product.

Citrate process로 제조한 $La_{1-x}Ca_xCoO_3$에서 Ca이 20mole% doping된 perovskite oxide가 산소환원반응에 대해 가장 높은 전류밀도와 specific activity를 보여주었으며 cyclic voltammogram에서 carbon만으로 제조된 전극에서보다 carbon과 Perovskite oxide를 혼합한 전극에서 높은 산소흡착/탈착전류를 보였다. 입자크기분포와 소결효과에 의해 $900^{\circ}C$, 5시간 공기중에서 소결한 $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CoO_3$가 산소환원반응에 대한 전기화학적 촉매특성이 우수하였다.

Electrospun $LaCoO_3$ perovskite nanofibers were produced for the air electrode in Zn-air rechargeable batteries using electrospinning technique with sequential calcination. The final calcination temperature was varied from 500 to $800^{\circ}C$ in order to determine its effect on the physical and electrochemical properties of the prepared $LaCoO_3$ perovskite nanofibers. The surface area of the electrospun $LaCoO_3$ perovskite nanofibers were observed to decrease with increasing final calcination temperature. Electrospun $LaCoO_3$ perovskite nanofibers calcined with final calcination temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ had the best electrocatalytic activity among the prepared perovskite nanofibers.

폐니켈수소전지에 함유된 희토류들의 회수는 자원 재활용을 위한 중요한 이슈 중의 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 폐니켈수소전지에 함유된 주요 희토류 성분 중의 하나인 란탄의 회수와 산화물로 전환되는 메커니즘 연구를 위하여, 재활용 공정에서 확보되는 희토류 침전물($NaRE(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$, RE = La, Nd, Ce)과 같은 단일 조성의 $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ 분말을 합성하였다. 합성된 분말은 $70^{\circ}C$에서 진행된 탄산나트륨과의 이온치환반응을 통해 판상형의 $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ 결정상을 나타냈으며, 비교를 위해 상온에서 진행된 치환 반응을 진행하였다. 이후 산화란탄 합성을 위해 TG 분석 결과를 바탕으로, $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ 분말을 $300^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$ 및 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 후열처리를 진행하였으며, 이에 따른 결정구조의 변화를 분석하였다. FESEM 결과 본 연구에서 합성된 각각의 분말들은 각기둥($NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$), 판상($La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$) 및 특정 형상 없이 불규칙적으로 응집된 형태($La_2O_3$)를 나타내었다.

$>LaMnO_3$$(La, Sr)MO_3$, and $(La, Sr)MO_3/YSZ$ gel films were deposited by spin-coating technique on scandium-doped zirconia (YSZ) substrate using the precursor solution prepared from $La(O-i-C_3H_7)_3$, $Co(CH_3COO)_2$or $Mn(O-i-C_3H_7)_2$,2-methoxyethanol, and polyethylene glycol. By heat-treating the gel films, the electrochemical cells, $(La, Sr)MnO_3{\mid}ScSZ{\mid}Pt$ were fabricated. The effect of polyethylene glycol on the microstructure evolution of $$LaCoO_3and $LaMnO_3$thin films was investigated, and NOx decomposition characteristics of the electrochemical cells were investigated at $500^{\circ}C$ to $600^{\circ}C$. By applying a direct current to the $(La, Sr)MnO_3{\mid}ScSZ{\mid}Pt$ electrochemical cell, good NOx conversion rate could be obtained relatively at low current value even if excess oxygen is included in the reaction gas mixture.

$LaCoO_3$ thick-film sensors were fabricated on alumina substrate by screen printing method. The sensitivity for gases was investigated by varying the heat treatment temperature of the films. X-Ray Diffractions and SEM photographs were used to examine their structural properties. The sensitivity of $LaCoO_3$ thick-film for CO gas was much better than for $C_4H_{10}$, $NH_3$ and NO gases. The best condition of heat treatment was $800^{\circ}C$ and the optimal operating temperature of $LaCoO_3$ thick-film for the highest sensitivity was $150^{\circ}C$. Sensitivities of the $LaCoO_3$ thick-film at 500ppm and l000ppm for CO gas were 72% and 95%, respectively.
