Mass production-capable $Li_2MnSiO_4$ powder was synthesized for use as cathode material in state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are main powder sources for high tech-end digital electronic equipments and electric vehicles in the near future and they must possess high specific capacity and durable charge-discharge characteristics. Amorphous silicone was quite superior to crystalline one as starting material to fabricate silicone oxide with high reactivity between precursors of sol-gel type reaction intermediates. The amorphous silicone starting material also has beneficial effect of efficiently controlling secondary phases, most notably $Li_xSiO_x$. Lastly, carbon was coated on $Li_2MnSiO_4$ powders by using sucrose to afford some improved electrical conductivity. The carbon-coated $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode material was further characterized using SEM, XRD, and galvanostatic charge/discharge test method for morphological and electrochemical examinations. Coin cell was subject to 1.5-4.8 V at C/20, where 74 mAh/g was observed during primary discharge cycle.

최근에 전력선통신(PLC: power line communication)에 관한 연구 및 개발이 활성화되고 있는 가운데, 정부에서는 전력선통신을 위한 전송채널의 주파수허용범위를 기존의 협대역인 450kHz에서 광대역인 30MHz로 확대할 계획이다. 현재, PLC 시스템에서는 대용량정보를 고속으로 전송하기 위한 고속 PLC기술의 개발이 활발히 진행되어지고 있으며, 이러한 통신시스템 기술의 구현을 위해서는 새롭게 확대될 30MHz대역에서의 전력선채널의 분석이 무엇보다도 중요한 해결 과제라고 할 수가 있을 것이다. 전력선은 각종 전기기기와 가전제품 및 사무기기로부터 발생되는 잡음들이 직접 유입되며, 또한 부하가 전력선에 연결되는 시간과 공간에 따라 전송 특성이 수시로 가변하는 특성을 가진다. 이와 같은 열악한 전력선통신채널 환경을 극복하고 통신의 에러극복능력을 향상시키기 위해서는 기존의 협대역 채널모델을 그대로 적용하기에는 부적합한 면이 많으므로, 새롭게 허용될 광대역 주파수를 갖는 전력선 채널에 대한 모델링기법이 요구된다. 따라서, 새롭게 인가될 광대역 채널을 위한 효율적인 전력선통신시스템을 개발하기 위해서는 전력선채널의 리모델링에 근거한 다양하고 실험적인 고찰이 수반되어야 하리라고 판단된다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 Mixture 잡음 모델링기법을 이용하여, 부하변동 및 가변적인 잡음 특성을 가진 전력선채널모델을 새롭게 분석하였다. 또한, 새롭게 분석한 전력선채널모델에 관한 수식을 직교 코드에 의한 다중접속 통신 기술인 CDMA 방식에 적용하여 비트 에러율을 유도해 봄으로써 그 유효성을 확인하였다.

This study conducted a research on burn-out printing convergence technology for cellulose blend knit fabrics. Printing technology, which forms color pattern on the fabric, can be generally classified into four according to printer or printing method, e.g. screen printing, roller printing, rotary printing, digital printing. However, these printing methods are flat in design or pattern, which have limitation to overcome monotonousness of fabric, so that recently burn-out process method, which expresses three-dimensional pattern effect by treating chemical on the surface of fabric as the method to appeal its esthetics to the customers. Particularly, in case of cellulose/polyester composite material, first, it is proceeded in 2 processes, by dyeing cellulose or polyester fabric and burning out cellulose fabric, in this process, due to pollution caused by disperse dye migration, color of polyester fabric part could be discolored, which has high falt risk. This research considered coloring burn-out technique, which simultaneously proceed dyeing and burn-out by reducing dyeing and burn-out process to 1 stage, which were proceeded in 2 stages previously. As the research result, it was confirmed that reasonable depth of roller was 0.04~0.06mm in roller printing process, heat treatment condition of burn-out far-infrared radiation was $185^{\circ}C{\times}30m/min$.

Recently TiN, TiAlN, CrN hardcoatings have adapted many industrial application such as die, mold and cutting tools because of good wear resistant and thermal stability. However, in terms of high speed process, general hard coatings have been limited by oxidation and thermal hardness drop. Especially in the case of PCB drill, high speed cutting and without lubricant process condition have not adapted these coatings until now. Therefore more recently, superhard nanocomposite coating which have superhard and good thermal stability have developed. In previous works, WC-TiAlN new nanocomposite film was investigated by cathodic arc ion plating system. Control of AI concentration, WC-TiAlN multi layer composite coating with controlled microstructure was carried out and provides additional enhancement of mechanical properties as well as oxidation resistance at elevated temperature. It is noted that microhardness ofWC-TiA1N multi layer composite coating increased up to 50 Gpa and got thermal stability about $900^{\circ}C$. In this study WC-TiAlN nanocomposite coating was deposited on PCB drill for enhancement of life time. The parameter was A1 concentration and plasma cleaning time for edge sharpness maintaining. The characteristic of WC-TiAlN film formation and wear behaviors are discussed with data from AlES, XRD, EDS and SEM analysis. Through field test, enhancement of life time for PCB drill was measured.

Chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) gas treatment (75 ppmv, 30 min) has been suggested to improve the microbial safety of postharvest paprika in a previous study. Based on these results, in this study, an additional combined treatment using low-concentration $ClO_2$ gas-generating sticks (3 ppmv) in paprika samples during storage was carried out at $8^{\circ}C$ and 90% relative humidity to further enhance the quality and reduce the decay rate of paprika for the purpose of lengthy storage. After the combined treatment, the initial populations of total aerobic bacteria as well as yeast and molds in the paprika samples decreased by 3.04 and 2.70 log CFU/g, respectively, compared with those of the control samples, and this microbial inactivation was maintained by the low-concentration $ClO_2$ gas-generating sticks during storage. In particular, the decay rate of samples with combined treatment was significantly lower than that of the control. Vitamin C content, hardness, and color quality parameters of paprika samples were not altered by treatment, while weight loss of the samples treated with the combined $ClO_2$ gas was lower than that of the control during storage. These results indicate that the combination of two different $ClO_2$ gas treatments is effective for retaining the quality of paprika during prolonged storage.
