최근 에너지/환경의 문제로 HEV(Hybrid Electric Vehicle)이 대두되고 있는데, HEV를 위한 대표적인 기술로서 제동시 에너지로 발전하여 전기를 회수하는 회생제동이 있다. 회생제동기술은 HEV 뿐만 아니라 건설기기, 하이브리드 버스, 전철, 엘리베이터 등에 폭넓게 활용이 가능하다. 회생제동용 에너지 저장원으로서는 고출력 및 환경특성이 우수한 슈퍼캐패시터가 적합하며, 단일 셀이 아닌 수십 ~ 수백 개의 셀이 모듈로 사용되는 만큼, 모듈화 설계 기술이 필요 하다. 수백 개의 셀을 모듈화하기 위해서 개별 셀의 전압을 모니터링 하는 기술과 충방전 시 밸렌싱 하는 기술, 사용환경에 따라 열 관리 기술이 필요하며, 이들 기능을 수행할 수 있는 통합 시스템을 구비하여 안정성과 성능 향상을 하고자 한다.

슈퍼캐패시터(Super Capacitor) 또는 울트라 캐패시터(Ultra Capacitor) 등으로 불리우는 전기 이중층 캐패시터(EDLC, Electric Double Layer Capacitor)는 기존 콘덴서보다 월등한 용량 특성을 가지며, 전극과 전해질의 화학반응을 이용하던 이차전지들과 달리 주로 계면반응을 사용한 축전원리를 이용하여 높은 출력밀도와 충방전 효율, 무제한에 가까운 사이클 특성을 가지고 있다. 또한 전류변화에 안정적이어서 기존의 이차전지와는 달리 보호회로를 생략할 수 있기 때문에 단순한 회로 구성이 가능하고 전극활물질로서 탄소재를 사용하여 환경 친화적인 특성을 가진 차세대 에너지저장장치라고 할 수 있다. 특히 50만 사이클이라는 우수한 수명특성으로 인해 기존의 이차전지가 사용되기 어려운 다양한 분야에 적용이 늘어가고 있는 추세에 있다.

In this report, we fabricate the porous graphene films through embossing process and vacuum filtration method and demonstrate their superior electrochemical properties as supercapacitor electrode materials. Insertion/removal of polystyrene nanoparticles between the graphene sheets allows to provide pore structures, leading to the effective prevention of restacking in graphene films. As-prepared porous graphene films have a large surface area, a bicontinuous porous structures, high electrical conductivity, and excellent mechanical integrity. The electrochemical properties of the porous graphene films as electrode materials of supercapacitor are investigated by using aqueous $H_2SO_4$ and ionic liquid solution under three-electrode system. The porous graphene films exhibit a high specific capacitance (284.5 F/g), which is two-fold higher than that of packing graphene films (138.9 F/g). In addition, the rate capability (98.7% retention) and long-term cycling stability (97.2%) for the porous graphene films are significantly enhanced, due to the facilitated ion mobility between the graphene layers.

The variable speed engine generator set is interested for an isolated power system due to reduced fuel consumption and less emission. However, because of sluggish dynamic behavior of the internal combustion engine the power quality would be degraded during the sudden load power surge, where the power required by the load is not available by the engine due to the reduced engine speed. An isolated power system based on variable speed engine with a super-capacitor bank can improve dynamic characteristics under such a sudden load change, and power quality, fuel consumption, and pollutants can be improved remarkably. Also, it is verified by the computer simulation that the inverter of 3phase-4leg is compatible to the isolated power system with unbalanced load. In this paper, the feasibility of the system has been verified based on a 26kw commercial diesel engine system.

We have developed a versatile method for the preparation of chemically linked graphene/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) hybrid materials via simple acid-catalyzed dehydration reaction between graphene oxide (GO) and amine-functionalized MWNTs (af-MWNTs). In this condition, ketone (-C=O) groups in GO and primary amine (-NH₂) moieties in af-MWNTs readily react to form imine (-C=N-) linkage. The chemical structures of graphene/MWNTs hybrid materials have been investigated using various microscopic and spectroscopic measurements. As a result of the synergetic effects of hybrid materials such as improved surface area and the superior structural restoration of graphitic networks, the hybrid materials demonstrate improved capacitance with excellent long-term stability. Furthermore, controlled experiments were conducted to optimize the weight ratio of graphene/MWNTs in hybrid materials. The highest capacitance of 132.4 F/g was obtained from the GM7.5 material, in which the weight ratio between graphene and MWNTs was adjusted to 7.5/1, in 1M KOH electrolyte at a scan rate of 100 mV/s.

All solid-state thin film micro supercapacitor, which consists of $RuO_2$/LiPON/$RuO_2$ multi layer structure, was fabricated on Pt/Ti/Si substrate using a $RuO_2$ electrode. Bottom $RuO_2$ electrode was grown by dc reactive sputtering system with increasing $O_2/[Ar+O_2]$ ratio at room temperature, and a LiPON electrolyte film was subsequently deposited on the bottom $RuO_2$ electrode at pure nitrogen ambient by rf reactive sputtering system. Room temperature charge-discharge measurements based on a symmetric $RuO_2$/LiPON/$RuO_2$ structure clearly demonstrates the cyclibility dependence on the microstructure of the $RuO_2$ electrode. Using both glancing angle x-ray diffraction (GXRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis, it was found that the microstructure of the $RuO_2$ electrode was dependent on the oxygen flow ratio. In addition, x- ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) examination shows that the Ru-O binding energy is affected by increasing oxygen flow ratio. Furthermore, TEM and AES depth profile analysis after cycling demonstrates that the interface layer formed by interfacial reaction between LiPON and $RuO_2$ act as a main factor in the degradation of the cyclibility of the thin film micro-supercapacitor.
