We performed a density functional theory study to investigate the intercalation voltage and lithium ion conduction in lithium cobalt oxide for lithium ion battery as a function of the lithium concentration. There were two methods for the intercalation of lithium ions; the intercalation of a lithium ion at a time in the individual layer and the intercalation of lithium ions in all the sites of one layer after all the sites of another layer. The average intercalation voltage was the same value, 3.48 V. However, we found the former method was more favorable than the latter method. The lattice parameter c was increased as the increase of the lithium concentration in the range of x < 0.25 while it was decreased as increase of the lithium concentration in the range of x > 0.25. The energy barrier for the conduction of lithium ion in lithium cobalt oxide was increased as the lithium concentration was increased. We demonstrated that the decrease of the intercalation voltage and increase of the energy barrier as the increase of the lithium concentration caused lower output voltage during the discharge of the lithium ion battery.

Recently, Li-ion battery is regarded as a potential energy storage device in the lime light and it can supply power to the satellite very effectively during eclipse. Because it has better features as high voltage range, large capacity and small volume than any other battery. Generally, multi cells are connected in series to use Li-ion batteries in satellite application. Since the internal resistance of cells is different each other, voltage in some cells can be overcharged or undercharged, so capacity of the cell is reduced and the life of whole battery pack is decreased. Therefore, a voltage balancing circuit with Fly-back converter is proposed and the voltage equalization of each cell is verified the prototype in this paper.

Deeply-driven ground rod in the rainy season may contact with rainwater and ground water. When surge voltages are applied to the submerged ground rods, the ionization around the ground rods are occurred. Ionization in soil and/or water is affected in dynamic performance of ground rod systems. This work aims at studying the transient performance of ground rod system under impulse voltage using scale model in an electrolytic tank. The potential reduction and energy dispersion caused by ionization were treasured and quantitatively analyzed using the Matlab Program. As a result, the peak voltage at the terminal of ground rod was varied with water resistivity and charging voltage of Marx generator. The potential at the terminal of the ground rod was approximately reduced to a half of the applied voltage just below breakdown voltage. Also the energy more than half of the applied energy was dispersed through the ground rod due to ionization just below breakdown voltage.

본 연구에서는 비대칭 이중게이트 MOSFET의 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께 비에 대한 문턱전압 및 전도중심의 변화에 대하여 분석하고자한다. 비대칭 이중게이트 MOSFET는 상하단 게이트 산화막의 두께를 다르게 제작할 수 있어 문턱전압이하 영역에서 전류를 제어할 수 있는 요소가 증가하는 장점이 있다. 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께 비에 대한 문턱전압 및 전도중심을 분석하기 위하여 포아송방정식을 이용하여 해석학적 전위분포를 구하였다. 이때 전하분포는 가우스분포함수를 이용하였다. 하단게이트 전압, 채널길이, 채널두께, 이온주입범위 및 분포편차를 파라미터로 하여 문턱전압 및 전도중심의 변화를 관찰한 결과, 문턱전압은 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께 비에 따라 큰 변화를 나타냈다. 특히 채널길이 및 채널두께의 절대값보다 비에 따라 문턱전압이 변하였으며 전도중심이 상단 게이트로 이동할 때 문턱전압은 증가하였다. 또한 분포편차보단 이온주입범위에 따라 문턱전압 및 전도중심이 크게 변화하였다.

본 연구에서는 Grand-Canonical Monte Carlo 시뮬레이션(GCMC)을 이용하여 서로 반대의 전하를 띤 고분자 전해질의 정전기적 특징을 이해하고, 고분자 전해질 다이오드의 메커니즘을 연구하였다. 고분자 전해질과 서로 반대의 전하를 띤 이온들의 모델은 전하를 띤 free-jointed hard chain과 hard sphere을 이용하였다. 본 연구진은 위와 같은 시뮬레이션을 통해, 평형 상태일 때의 고분자 전해질과 이온의 분포를 연구하였으며, 이 시스템에 전압을 걸어줌에 따라 이온의 이동 모습을 관찰하였다. 또한 전압의 효과와 더불어 고분자 전해질의 농도와 이온들의 크기 변화에 대해서도 연구를 진행하였다.

Electrochemical determination of Ag(I) ion was carried out by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) with the carbon paste electrode (CPE) containing cinchonidine. The detection limit for Ag(I) ion was shown to be $1.0 {\times}10^{-6}$ M in conventional CV and up to $8.0{\times}10^{-9}$ M (${\pm}$0.6%) using DPV. The optimum analytical condition of Ag(I) ion was determined as follows: pH 7, 20 minutes of deposition time, and 50% (w/w) cinchonidine to carbon powder composition of electrode. The interference effect of various metal ions added to the deposition solution was also studied. The peak current of Ag(I) ion except Hg(II) ion was decreased roughly 25% compare to Ag(I) ion only. When Mn(II) ion was present in sample solution at pH 9, shown a large interference effect.

This paper proposes the new type of an ion exchange water generator system. The system has an +/- ion exchange membrane located in center and a diagonal-interdigit type electrode applied to a pulsed power. This system is studied in the liquid for the oxidation/reduction potential and the dissolved oxygen concentration by the polarity effects. Consequently, as a diagonal-interdigit type electrode is installed in each side of device, the oxidation/reduction potential and dissolved oxygen concentration by polarity changes and electrical resistivity differences be observed. An ion concentration in the ion exchange water generator system is increased by dissolved oxygen generated from oxidation/reduction potential changes.

$SiO_2$ 패시베이션 층에 As+ 이온을 주입한 1.2 kV급 AlGaN/GaN 쇼트키 장벽 다이오드( Schottky Barrier Diode, SBD )를 제작하였다. 주입된 As+ 이온들은 역방향 바이어스에서 공핍 영역의 곡률을 변화 시켰고, 이로 인해 항복 전압이 증가하고 누설 전류가 감소하였다. 제안된 소자의 항복전압이 1204 V 이었고, 기존 소자의 항복전압은 604 V 이었다. 캐소드 전압이 100 V일 때 제안된 소자의 누설전류는 21.2 nA/mm 이었고, 같은 조건에서 제안된 소자는 $80.3{\mu}A/mm$ 이었다. 주입된 As+ 양이온은 이차원 전자 가스( Two-Dimensional Electron Gas, 2DEG )에 전자를 유도했고, 채널의 농도가 미세하게 증가하였다. 따라서 순방향 전류가 증가하였다.

The effect of discharge voltage on electron mean energy, electric potential, ionization rate, neutral and ion density of Hall thruster was analyzed using a two-dimensional axisymmetric hybrid model. The results of the code developed for this study such as discharge current, thrust, and plasma distribution according to discharge voltage of SPT-100ML Hall thruster were compared by experiments and calculations of other researchers for validation. The results show that the electron mean energy, the ionization rate, and the ion density are increased while the neutral density is decreased as the discharge voltage is increased. The thrust and the discharge current are proportional to the discharge voltage.

This paper presents the soil ionization phenomena and the parameters with the transient characteristics of model grounding system under lightning impulse voltages. lonization properties of dry and wet sands were investigated by using two test cells of concentric cylindrical electrode system with different dimensions. As a result non-linear electrical behavior of sand under high impulse voltage is caused by ionization process. The transient impedance of sand depends not only on the water content but also on the magnitude of applied impulse voltages. The grounding impedance is decreased with increasing the water content and the magnitude of a lied voltages. The results resented in this paper will provide useful information on the design of high performance grounding systems against lightning surge.
