$MnO_2$-doped $0.985[Li_{0.04}(Na_{0.545}K_{0.46})_{0.96}(Nb_{0.81}Ta_{0.15}Sb_{0.04})]O_3+0.015KNbO_3(0.985LNKNTS+0.015KNbO_3)$ lead-free ceramics were fabricated by conventional solid state method to develop excellent dielectric and piezoelectric properties. The result of X-ray diffraction patterns obviously indicated that all of the specimen has pure perovskite structure without secondary phase. In addition, orthorhombic phase and coexistance region of orthorhombic-tetragonal phase (MPB) were observed with amount of $MnO_2$. The optimal values of ${\rho}$=4.70 $g/cm^3$, $d_{33}=238$ pC/N, $k_P=0.46$, $Q_m=121$, ${\varepsilon}_r=849$, and $T_C=225^{\circ}C$ were obtained at 0.01 mol% $MnO_2$ doped $0.985LNKNTS+0.015KNbO_3$ ceramics sintered at $990^{\circ}C$ for 5 h, respectively. Hence, it was indicated that the suitable amount of $MnO_2$ could improve the electrical properties of $0.985[Li_{0.04}(Na_{0.545}K_{0.46})_{0.96}(Nb_{0.81}Ta_{0.15}Sb_{0.04})]O_3+0.015KNbO_3$ ceramics.

For this study, the sol gel method was used to synthesize the spinel LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄ (LNMO) electrode material. Structural, morphological, electrochemical, and kinetic aspects of the LNMO have been characterized. The synthesized LNMO was indexed with the Fd3m cubic space group. The excellent capacity retention indicates that the spinel framework of LNMO has the ability to withstand high rate charge-discharge throughout long cycle tests. The Li diffusion coefficient (D_Li) changes non-monotonically across three orders of magnitude, from 10^-9 to 10^-12 cm² s^-1 determined from GITT method. The variation of D_Li seemed to be related to three oxidation reactions that happened throughout the charging process. A small dip in D_Li at the beginning stage of Li deintercalation is correlated with the oxidation of Mn³⁺ to Mn⁴⁺. While two pronounced D_Li minima at 4.7 V and 4.75 V are due to the oxidation of Ni²⁺/Ni³⁺ and Ni³⁺/Ni⁴⁺ respectively. The depletion of D_Li at the high voltage region is attributed to the occurrence of two successive phase transformation phenomena.

Nanocrystalline spinel lithium manganese oxide ($LiMn_2O_4$) powders with narrow-size-distribution, pure-phase particles, and high crystallinity with an average crystallite size of about 70 nm were synthesized at $600^{\circ}C$ for 6 h in air by freeze drying method. Spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ is also prepared by sol-gel using citric acid as a chelating agent. The influence of different parameters such as pH conditions, solvent, molar ratio of citric acid to total metal ions, calcination temperature, starting material on the structure, morphology and purity of this oxide was investigated. The results of sol-gel method show that pure $LiMn_2O_4$ with average crystallite size of about 130 nm can be produced from nitrate salts as starting materials at $800^{\circ}C$ for 6 h in air. The optimum pH and molar ratio of chelating agent to total metal ions are $4{\leq}pH{\leq}6$ and 1.0, respectively. A possible mechanism on the formation of the nanocrystallines synthesized by sol-gel was also discussed. At the end a comparison of the differences between two methods was made on the basis of x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) tests.

We studied relation of X-ray diffraction and charge/discharge capacity of LiMn$_2$O$_4$ cathode. LiMn$_2$O$_4$ is prepared by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$ and MnO$_2$ (mole ratio 1 : 2) and heating at $700^{\circ}C$, 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 24hr, 36hr, 48hr, 60hr and 72hr. Through X-ray diffraction pattern, it is analyzed that crystal structure and lattice parameter and peak ratio so on. We obtained X-ray diffraction pattern that varied lattice parameter and peak intensity by function of calcining temperature and time. Cathode active materials calcined at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 36hr shown that (111)/(311) Peak ratio at X-ray diffraction pattern was 0.37. It means that crystal structure is formed very well in this temperature and time. In the result of charge/discharge test, cathode active material calcined at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 36hr displayed excellent charge/discharge properties than that of cathode active materials calcined at other temperature and title. In this study, we certified that spinel structure basied cubic is formed very well at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 36hr. In this case, (111)/(311) peak ratio at X-ray diffraction is 0.37, and charge/discharge properties is excellent than others.

현재 상용화되어 있는 리튬 이차전지용 양극재료로는 비교적 작동전압이 높은 층상 암염구조(LiCoO$_2$, LiNiO$_2$) 및 Spinet계(LiMn$_2$O$_4$) 전이금속 산화물이 대부분 이용되고 있다 하지만 LiCoO$_2$나 LiNiO$_2$ 같은 상용화 물질은 비교적 높은 비용과, 강한 독성 때문에 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. 또 Spinel(LiMn$_2$O$_4$)는 낮은 비용과 환경친화적인 장점에도 불구하고 Jahn-Teller 변형과 관련된 구조적 변형이 심각하기 때문에 사이클시 비가역적인 용량의 감소가 심각하다. 이러한 관점에서 전이금속보다 그 양이 풍부하고 저렴할 뿐만 아니라 독성이 없는 Olivine 구조 (LiFePO$_4$)를 갖는 phosphate계 화합물에 관심을 가지게 되었다. LiFePO$_4$는 리튬 음극과 3.4V의 방전전압을 나타내며, 170mAh/g의 이론용량을 가지고 있어, Fe-base의 장점은 물론 안정적인 결정구조 및 현재 상용화된 재료들과 비슷한 에너지 밀도를 가진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 양극물질의 기존 두 제조법인 고상반응법과 sol-gel법으로 대표되는 제조법의 단점을 상호 보완될 수 있다고 판단되는 기계적 합금화법(Mechanical Alloying, MA)공정을 도입하여 초미세립 분말 제조에 초점을 맞추어 Olivine phosphate계 양극물질의 제조 및 전기화학적 특성을 연구하였다.

본 연구에서는 Czochralski 법으로 양질의 $Li_2B_4O_7$ 단결정과 Cu, Mn, Mg를 활성제로 첨가한 $Li_2B_4O_7$ 계열 단결정을 육성하였다. 또한 이들을 TLD 소자로 제작하고, 감쇠율 및 에너지의존성의 열형광 특성을 조사하였다. 실온에 보관하면서 각 TLD들의 주 peak에 대한 감쇠율을 측정한 결과, 30일 동안 10% 내외의 감쇠율로 비교적 안정하였다. 소자 형태의 단결정 TLD가 분말 형태보다 감쇠율이 다소 낮게 나타났으며, 그 이유는 소자 형태의 단결정 TLD가 흡습성에 의한 영향을 적게 받기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 각 TLD 소자의 광자에 대한 에너지의존성은 32 keV의 열형광 감도가 1.25 MeV의 $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$ 선에 비해 약 85 % 정도이며, 이론적 계산값과 측정값이 대체로 잘 일치하는 결과이다. 이상에서와 같이, 본 연구에서 제작한 $Li_2B_4O_7:Cu$와 $Li_2B_4O_7:Mn$ 단결정 TLD는 X선에 대한 감쇠율 및 에너지의존성의 특성이 우수하다. 따라서 의료기관 및 산업체 분야에서 개인피폭선량 측정, 환경방사선 측정, 방사선 치료시의 선량 평가에 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각한다.

Lithium secondary batteries have become an important power source for portable electronic devices such as cellular phones, laptop computers. Presently, commercialized lithium-ion batteries use a LiCoO₂ cathode. However, due to the high cost and environmental problems resulting from cobalt, an intensive search for new electrode materials is being actively conducted. Recently, solid solution LiMn_1-xNi_xO₂ have become attractive because of high capacity and enhanced safety at high voltages over 4.5 V. The Li_1.6Ni_0.35Mn_0.65O₂ compounds were conventionally prepared by a sol-gel method, which can produce the layered Li-Ni-Mn-O compounds with a high homogeneity.

In this study, material lifecycle evaluation was performed to analyze the environmental impact characteristics of Li_1.6Ni_0.35Mn_0.65O₂ & graphene 2wt% half-cell manufacturing process. The software of material life cycle assessment was Gabi. Through this, environmental impact assessment was performed for each process. The environmental loads induced by Li_1.6Ni_0.35Mn_0.65O₂ & graphene 2wt% synthesis process were quantified and analyzed, and the results showed that the amount of power had the greatest impact on the environment.
