Surface floating air cathode microbial fuel cell (MFC) having horizontal flow was developed for the application of MFC technology. RVC (Reticulated vitreous carbon) coated with anyline was used as anode electrode and carbon cloth coated with Pt (5.0 g Pt/$m^2$, GDE LT250EW, E-TEK) was used as cathode electrode. As results of continuous operation with changing the flow rate from 4.3 mL/min to 9.5 mL/min, maximum power density of 4.5 W/$m^3$ was acquired at 5.4 mL/min, which was at 0.35 m/hr of flow velocity under anode electrode. When the ratio of cathode surface area to anode surface area($A_c/A_a$) was changed to 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25, the maximum power density of 2.7 W/$m^3$ was shown at the ratio of 1.0. As the ratio decreased from 1.0 to 0.25, the power density also decreased, which is caused by increasing the internal resistance resulted from reducing the surface area to contact with oxygen. Actually, internal resistances of the ratio of 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25 were 63.75${\Omega}$, 142.18${\Omega}$, and 206.12${\Omega}$, respectively.

[ $Li[Co_{0.50}Li_{0.17}Mn_{0.33}]O_2$ ] powder was prepared using a simple combustion method. specially, ratio of 2:1, 3:2, 1:1, 2:3, 1:2 was adopted as acetate source/nitrate source. The diffraction pattern of $Li[Co_{0.50}Li_{0.17}Mn_{0.33}]O_2$ powder showed that this compound could be classified as hexagonal $a-NaFeO_2$ structure (space group : $R\bar{3}m$). The size of powder was less than $1{\mu}m$. Small particle size of cathode powder would give a good ionic and electronic conductivity to cathode electrode, which made of cathode powder. As the increase of nitrate source-ratio, discharge capacity of $Li[Co_{0.50}Li_{0.17}Mn_{0.33}]O_2$ at high charge-discharge rate was increased. When the ratio of acetate source/nitrate source was 1:2, discharge capacity at 10 C rate (2000 mA/g) was 180 mAh/g. It was $10{\sim}15%$ larger than that of powder, which have 2:1 as acetate source/nitrate ratio.

Electrical, optical, and structural properties of indium zinc oxide (IZO) films grown by a box cathode sputtering (BCS) were investigated as a function of oxygen flow ratio. A sheet resistance of $42.6{\Omega}/{\Box}$, average transmittance above 88% in visible range, and root mean spare roughness of $2.7{\AA}$ were obtained even in the IZO layers grown at room temperature. In addition, it is shown that electrical characteristics of the top-emitting organic light emitting diodes (TOLEDs) with the BCS grown-IZO top cathode layer is better than that of TOLEDs with DC sputter grown IZO top cathode, due to absence of plasma damage effect. Furthermore the effects of oxygen flow ratio in IZO films are investigated, based on x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ultra violet/visible (UV/VIS) spectro-meter, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis results.

Li-ion 2차전지는 정극재료로 리튬전이금속산화물을, 부극재료로 탄소를 사용한다. 고용량 및 장수명을 지닌 Li-ion 2차 전지를 제작하기 위하여, 충전중에 탄소표면에 리튬 석출이 없이 전극 활물질의 이용율은 가능한 높아야 한다. 정극 및 부극 재료의 balance 및 적절한 충전 방식이 Li-ion 2차전지의 설계에 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 $LiCoO_2/MPCF$전지의 성능에 미치는 정$\cdot$부극 중량비의 효과를 고찰하였다. 먼저 각 반전지의 충방전 특성을 평가하였다. 그리고 흑연화 MPCF를 부극으로, $LiCoO_2$를 정극으로 사용하여 원통형 Li-ion 2차전지를 제작하였다. 기준전극으로 리튬금속을 사용하여 $LiCoO_2/MPCF$전지에서 각 반전지의 전위를 측정하였다. 또한 중량비에 따른 $LiCoO_2/MPCF$ 전지의 충방전 수명 성능을 평가하였다. 시험 결과, $LiCoO_2$ 정극의 이용율은 중량비에 의존하지 않지만, MPCF부극 이용율은 중량비에 크게 의존하였다. 또한, $LiCoO_2/MPCF$전지의 최적 중량비는 $2.0\~2.2$인 것으로 판단되었다.

We have examined the impedance characteristics and the battery characteristics of PLI bicell. As results, the impedance of PLI bicell with 62 wt% cathode active material were lower than the other cathode active material content. And the specific resistances of PLI bicell increased with N/P ratio until 1.85. And the impedance of PLI bicell decreased with increased adding amounts of binder. But the rate capability of PLI bicell were not increased with increased adding amounts of binder. PLI bicell with 9.9 wt% binder content were the best rate capability. but the cycleability were not the same results as the rate capability. PLI bicells with cathode with more than 11 wt% binder, their cycleability were almost same, nevertheless they were better cycleability than 9.9 wt% binderl content.

본 연구에서는 티타늄 산화막을 상온에서 HCP (hollow cathode plasma) 반응기에 의하여 증착하였다. HCP 반응기에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과, 전극에서의 열 발생에 관계없이 기판 표면에서의 온도분포는 일정하였다. 그리고 전극과의 거리가 증가하면서 기판 표면에서의 유체는 일정한 것으로 나타났으며, 표면 조도는 거리에 따라 감소하였다. 출력이 증가할수록 산소의 조성은 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 출력이 240 watt와 반응 거리가 3 cm에서 Ti와 O의 비율이 1 : 2에 가깝게 결합이 이루어졌다.

Ni-rich layered oxides cathode has recently gained attention as an advanced cathode material due to their applicable energy density. However, as the Ni component in the layered site is increased, the high reactivity of Ni⁴⁺ results in parasitic reaction associated with decomposing electrolyte, which leads to a rapid decreasing the lifespan of the cell. The electrolyte additive triallyl borate (TAB) improves interfacial stability, leading to a stable cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) layer on the LNCM83 cathode. A multi-functionalized TAB additive can produce a uniformly distributed CEI layer via electrochemical oxidation, which implies an increase in long-term cycling performance. After 100 cycles at elevated temperature, the cell tested by 0.75 TAB retained 88.3% of its retention ratio, whereas the cell performed by TAB-free electrolyte retained 64.1% of its retention. Once the TAB additive formed CEI layers on the LNCM83 cathode, it inhibited the decomposition of carbonate-based solvents species in addition to the dissolution of transition metal components from the cathode. The addition of TAB to LNCM83 cathode material is believed to be a promising way to increase the electrochemical performance.

Crossover of nitrogen from cathode to anode is inevitable in typical membranes used in PEM fuel cells. This crossovered nitrogen normally accumulates in the hydrogen recirculation system at anode side channels. Excessive buildup of nitrogen in the anode side lowers the relative hydrogen concentration and finally affects the performance of fuel cell stack. So it is very important to analysis the nitrogen gas crossover at various operating conditions. In this study, characterization of nitrogen gas crossover in PEM fuel cell stack was investigated. The mass spectroscopy (MS) has been applied to measure the amount of the crossovered nitrogen gas at the anode exit. Results show that nitrogen gas crossover rate was affected by current density, anode and cathode stoichiometric ratio and operating pressure. Current density, anode stoichiometric ratio and anode operating pressure do not affect nitrogen crossover rate but anode exit concentration of nitrogen. Cathode pressure and stoichiometric ratio largely affect the nitrogen crossover rate.

Li ion battery have many advantages such as high energy density, high voltage and low self discharge, so it will replace conventional Ni/Cd battery. But, charge-discharge characterization of Li battery is controlled by weight ratio of electrodes (Cathode/Anode). So, we performed a study on relation between charge/discharge characterization and weight ratio (cathode/anode).

리튬이온전지용 정극활물질인$LiMn_2O_4$ 정극복합제의 조성을 최적화 하기 위하여 활물질, 도전재, 결합제 등의 비표면적 비율을 인자로 이용하였다. 결합제는 최소한의 양으로 사용되어 도포 후, 그리고 전해액에 함침 되었을 때에도 집전체와의 접착력을 유지할 수 있어야 하며, 이를 위해서는 $130^{\circ}C$의 열압착이 효과적이었다. 결합제의 최소 필요량은 활물질 및 도전재의 표면적에 따라 변하는 값으로, 활물질 및 도전재의 전체표면적에 대한 결합제의 무게비율이 $1.1\%$ 이상일 때 탈리가 일어나지 않았다. 정극의 전자전도도를 증가시킴으로서 eel떠 내부저항을 낮출 수 있었으며, 전자전도도를 0.019mS/cm에서 0.036mS/cm로 증가시킴에 따라 0.2C rate에서의 방전용량에 대한 2C rate에서의 방전용량의 비율을 $76\%$에서 $93\%$로 $17\%$개선할 수 있었다.
