$LiCoO_2$and $LiCo_{1-x}$$Ni_x$$O_2$ solid solutions were fabricated by the solid state reaction process. The structural cation mixing phenomena were investigated using XRD, SEM, particle size analysis and $^7$Li NMR,The synthesized LiCoO$_2$ and $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_XO_2$ microcrystallines showed the hexagonal layered structures. Mean particle sizes were increased with the increase of the amount of nickel in the solid solutions. The cation mixing effects were increased as increasing the fraction of nickel(x), x = 0.3, 0.5, 0.7. the peak frequency of $^7$Li NMR was shifted to the higher frequency and the line width increased as increasing the amount of nickel in the solid solutions.

In this study, Li powder was recovered from the by-product of LNO ($Li_2NiO_2$) process, which is the positive electrode active material of waste lithium ion battery, through the $CO_2$ thermal reaction process. In the process of recovering Li powder, the $CO_2$ injection amount is 300 cc/min. The $Li_2NiO_2$ award was phase-separated into the $Li_2CO_3$ phase and the NiO phase by holding at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 min. After this, the collected sample:distilled water = 1:50 weight ratio, and after leaching, the solution was subjected to vacuum filtration to recover $Li_2CO_3$ from the solution, and the NiO powder was recovered. In order to increase the purity of Ni, it was maintained in $H_2$ atmosphere for 3 hours to reduce NiO to Ni. Through the above-mentioned steps, the purity of Li was 2290 ppm and the recovery was 92.74% from the solution, and Ni was finally produced 90.1% purity, 92.6% recovery.

$Li_{2}CO_3$ doped $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ ceramics were fabrication by sol-gel method. Sintering temperature must be suited to the LTCC technology. Structure and dielectric properties were investigated for effect of $Li_{2}CO_3$ dopants at BST. Structure of $Li_{2}CO_3$ doped $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ ceramics were dense and homogeneous with almost no pore. Relative permittivity was decreased and dielectric loss was increased with increasing $Li_{2}CO_3$ doping rations. In the case of the 3wt% $Li_{2}CO_3$ doped $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ ceramics sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, relative permittivity and dielectric loss were 907 and 0.003 at 100 kHz.

We prepared $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$, $CoCO_3$.$xH_2O$ and $Ni(OH)_2$ (mole ratio respectively) and heating at $850^{\circ}C$ for 5h. We awared through XRD that from 0 to 0.5 at x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is well formed for hexagonal structure, but the more $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ involve NI, the more hexagonal structure is not well formed. In the result of charge/discharge test, charge/discharge characteristic of $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is similar to that of $LiCoO_2$. Therefore, $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is superior to $LiCoO_2$ for Li secondary battery

To prepare the high-capacity cathode material with improved electrochemical performances, nanoparticles of $C0_3(PO_4)_2$ were coated on the powder surface of $Li[Co_{0.1}Ni_{0.15}Li_{0.2}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$, which was already synthesized by simple combustion method. The coated powders after the heat treatment at >$700^{\circ}C$ surely showed well-structured crystalline property with nanoscale surface coating layer, which was consisted of $LiCOPO_4$ phase formed from the reaction bwtween $CO_3(PO_4)_2$ and lithium impurities. In addition, cycle performance was particularly improved by the $CO_3(PO_4)_2$-coating for the cathode material for lithium rechargeable batteries.

유기 발광 소자에서 $Li_2CO_3$를 전자 주입층으로 사용하여 전류, 전압, 휘도 그리고 수명을 살펴 보았다. 전자 주입층을 사용함으로써 음전극과 전자 수송층 사이의 전자 주입의 에너지 장벽을 낮출 수 있다. 전자 주입층에 Ca, Mg, Li 등과 같은 낮은 일 함수의 금속을 사용하면, 음전극과 유기물층 사이의 효과적인 전자 주입을 도울 수 있다. 소자의 구조는ITO/TPD(40nm)/$Alq_3$(60nm)/$Li_2CO_3$(xnm)/Al(100nm)으로 하였으며, $Li_2CO_3$의 두께를 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.2, l.5nm로 변화시켜 소자를 제작하였다. $Li_2CO_3$의 박막 두께가 0.3nm일 때, 전자 주입층을 사용하지 않은 소자에 비하여 효율은 2.4배 증가하였고, 구동전압은 0.75V 낮아졌다.

$Li_2SiO_3$ was used as a coating material to improve the electrochemical performance of $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$. $Li_2SiO_3$ is not only a stable oxide but also an ionic conductor and can, therefore, facilitate the movement of lithium ions at the cathode/electrolyte interface. The surface of the $Li_2SiO_3$-coated $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ was covered with island-type $Li_2SiO_3$ particles, and the coating process did not affect the structural integrity of the $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ powder. The $Li_2SiO_3$ coating improved the discharge capacity and rate capability; moreover, the $Li_2SiO_3$-coated electrodes showed reduced impedance values. The surface of the lithium-ion battery cathode is typically attacked by the HF-containing electrolyte, which forms an undesired surface layer that hinders the movement of lithium ions and electrons. However, the $Li_2SiO_3$ coating layer can prevent the undesired side reactions between the cathode surface and the electrolyte, thus enhancing the rate capability and discharge capacity. The thermal stability of $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ was also improved by the $Li_2SiO_3$ coating.

In this work, $LiMn_2O_4$ and $LiNi_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}Co_{1/3}O_2$ cathode materials are mixed by some specific ratios to enhance the practical capacity, energy density and cycle performance of battery. At present, the most used cathode material in lithium ion batteries for EVs is spinel structure-type $LiMn_2O_4$. $LiMn_2O_4$ has advantages of high average voltage, excellent safety, environmental friendliness, and low cost. However, due to the low rechargeable capacity (120 mAh/g), it can not meet the requirement of high energy density for the EVs, resulting in limiting its development. The battery of $LiMn_2O_4-LiNi_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}Co_{1/3}O_2$ (50:50 wt%) mixed cathode delivers a energy density of 483.5 mWh/g at a current rate of 1.0 C. The accumulated capacity from $1^{st}$ to 150th cycles was 18.1 Ah/g when the battery is cycled at a current rate of 1.0 C in voltage range of 3.2~4.3 V.

The electrochemical characterization was conducted by the addition of chemically synthesized polyaniline on LiCoO$_2$electrode. From the results of XRD and SEM, the phase transition and microstructure were not found. Initial electrochemical characteristics of LiCoO$_2$electrode for lithium secondary battery were evaluated through the charge/discharge within the range of 4.3 V to 3.0 V versus Li/Li$^{+}$. Discharge capacity of LiCoO$_2$electrode without addition of Polyaniline were 160.21 mAh/g. But after addition of polyaniline, lower discharge capacities 25.7 mAh/g was found.d.

The fluorine-substituted $0.3Li_2MnO_3{\cdot}0.7Li[Mn_{0.60}Ni_{0.25}Co_{0.15}]O_{2-x}F_x$ cathode materials were synthesized by using the transition metal precursor, $LiOH{\cdot}H_2O$ and LiF. This was to facilitate the movement of lithium ions by forming more compact SEI layer and to reduce the dissolution of transition metals. The $0.3Li_2MnO_3{\cdot}0.7Li[Mn_{0.60}Ni_{0.25}Co_{0.15}]O_{2-x}F_x$ cathode material was sphere-shaped and each secondary particle had $10{\sim}15{\mu}m$ in size. The fluorine-substituted cathodes initially delivered low discharge capacity, but it gradually increased until 50th charge-discharge cycles. These results indicated that fluorine substitution gave positive effects on the structural stabilization and resistance reduction in materials.
