This work describes the effect of the number of roll pressing and the composition of carbon black on the electric and mechanical properties of carbon-PTFE electrode, in which composition is MSP20 : carbon black: PTFE = 95-X : X : 5 wt.%. It was found that the best electric and mechanical properties were obtained for sheet electrode roll pressed about 15 times and for sheet electrode, in which composition is MSP20 carbon black : PTFE = 80 : 15 : 5 wt%. These behaviors could be explained by the network structure of PTFE fibrils and conducting paths linked with carbon blacks, respectively. On the other hand, cell capacitor using the sheet electrode with 15 wt.% of carbon black attached on aluminum current collector with the electric conductive adhesive, in composition is carbon black : CMC = 70 : 30 wt.%, has exhibited the best rate capability between 0.5 $mA/cm^2$ ~ 100 $mA/cm^2$ current density and the lowest ESR.

This work describes the effect of binders, such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), CMC+Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and PTFE, on the electrochemical and mechanical properties of activated carbon-electrode for electric double layer capacitor. The cell capacitors using the electrode bound with binary binder composed of CMC and PTFE, especially m composition CMC ; PTFE = 60 : 40 wt %, has exhibited the better rate capability and the lower internal resistance than those of the cell capacitor with CMC. On the other hand, the sheet type electrode kneaded with PTFE was bonded with conductive adhesive on Al foil. This cell capacitor using the electrode with PTFE exhibited the best mechanical properties and rate capability compared to the CMC and CMC+PTFE one These behaviors could be explained by the well-developed network structure of PTFE fibrils during the kneading process.

The preparation and characteristics of flexible indium tin oxide electrodes grown on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates using a specially designed roll-to-roll sputtering system for use in flexible optoelectronics In spite of low a PET substrate temperature, we can obtain the flexible electrode with a sheet resistance of 47.4 ohm/square and an average optical transmittance of 83.46 % in the green region of 500~550 nm wavelength. Both x-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) analysis results showed that all flexible ITO electrodes grown on the PET substrate were an amorphous structure with a very smooth and featureless surface, regardless of the Ar/$O_2$ flow ratio due to the low substrate temperature, which is maintained by a cooling drum. In addition, the flexible ITO electrode grown on the Ar ion beam treated PET substrates showed more stable mechanical properties than the flexible ITO electrode grown on the wet cleaned PET substrate, due to an increased adhesion between the flexible ITO and the PET substrates.

The electrosorption of U(VI) from waste water was carried out by using an activated carbon fiber (ACF) felt electrode in a continuous electrosorption cell. In order to enhance the electrosorption capacity at a lower potential, the ACF was electrochemically modified in an acidic and a basic solution. Pore structure and functional groups of the electrochemically modified ACF were examined, and the effects of the modification conditions were studied for the adsorption of U(VI). Specific surface area of all the ACFs was decreased by this modification. The amount of the acidic functional groups decreased with a basic modification, while the amount increased a lot with an acidic modification. The electrosorption capacity of U(VI) decreased on the acid modified electrode due to the shielding effect of the acidic functional groups. The base modified electrode enhanced the capacity due to a reduction of the acidic functional groups. The electrosorption amount of U(VI) on the base modified electrode at .0.3 V corresponds to that of the as-received ACF electrode at .0.9 V. Such a good adsorption capacity was due to a reduction of the shielding effect and an increase of the hydroxyl ions in the electric double layer on the ACF surface by the application of negative potential.

Among various fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer the highest energy efficiency, when taking into account the thermal recycling of waste heat at high temperature. However, the highest efficiency and lowest pollution for a SOFC can be achieved through the sophisticated control of its constituent components such as electrodes, electrolytes, interconnects and sealing materials. The electrochemical conversion efficiency of a SOFC is particularly dependent upon the performance of its electrode materials. The electrode materials should meet highly stringent requirements to optimize cell performance. In particular, both mass and charge transport should easily occur simultaneously through the electrode structure. Matter transport or charge transport is critically related to the configuration and spatial disposition of the three constituent phases of a composite electrode, which are the ionic conducting phase, electronic conducting phase, and the pores. The current work places special emphasis on the quantification of this complex microstructure of composite electrodes. Digitized images are exploited in order to obtain the quantitative microstructural information, i.e., the size distributions and interconnectivities of each constituent component. This work reports regarding zirconia-based composite electrodes.

Olivine structure of $LiFePO_4$ (LFP) is one of the most commonly used materials in aqueous rechargeable lithium batteries (ARLBs), and can store and release charge through the insertion/de-insertion of $Li^+$ between LFP and FP. We have fabricated LFP and LFP/FP electrodes on titanium paper and studied their electrochemical properties in 2 M $Li_2SO_4$. The LFP/FP electrode was determined to be a suitable electrode for electo-ostmotic pump (EOP) in terms of efficiency in water and 0.5 mM $Li_2SO_4$ solution. Experiments to determine the effect of cations and anions on the performance of EOP using LFP/FP electrode have shown that $Li^+$ is the best cation and that the anion does not significantly affect the performance of the EOP. As the concentration of $Li_2SO_4$ solution was increased, the current increased. The flow rate peaked at $4.8{\mu}L/30s$ in 1.0 mM $Li_2SO_4$ solution and then decreased. When the EOP was tested continuously in 1.0 mM $Li_2SO_4$ solution, the EOP transported approximately 35 mL of fluid while maintaining a stable flow rate and current for 144 h.

This work describes the effect of conducting materials on the electrochemical performances of electric double layer capacitor. Three kinds of Carbon black, such as Acethylene Black, Super P Black, Ketjen black supplied by Denki Kagaku Kogyo, MMM Carbon, Ketjen Black International Co. respectively, was added in carbon-Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) electrode, which composition is activated carbon : carbon black : PTFE = 80 : 15 : 5 wt.%, and were compared with their electrochemical properties. The electrode with Ketjen Black has showed the lowest resistance than other carbon black, and also exhibited the better rate capability between 0.5 mA/cm$^2$ ∼ 100 mA/cm$^2$ current density in unit cell capacitor. On the other hand, as increasing the composition of Ketjen Black, the specific resistances of electrodes were decreased and Ketjen Black content higher than 15 wt% increased. The best rate capability was obtained at the electrode with 15 wt.% of Ketjen Black in unit cell capacitor. This behaviors would be correlated with the dense structure of electrode.

$Ti:LiNbO_3$채널형 광도파로와 Asymmetric Coplanar Strip(ACPS) 전극구조를 이용해서, $1.3{\mu}m$에서 동작하는 진형파형 위상 광변조기를 설계, 제작한 다음 변조특성을 관찰하였다. 위상정합이 개선되도록 ACPS 진행파형 전극을 설계하기 위해서 전극과 완충박막의 두께를 포함하여, 전극제원의 해석적 함수로 특성저항, 변조파의 유효굴절률 및 전극손실 등을 고려하였다. Ti 확산방법으로 저손실 채널형 광도파로 제작하였으며, double-spin image reversal 공정을 이용해서 $2.5{\mu}m$ 두께의 전극을 형성하였다. 9GHz 부근에서의 전극구조 공진형상 때문에 변조특성이 제한 되었지만, 2.5GHz 까지는 큰 왜곡없이 변조특성이 관찰되었다.

In this work, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) cell using nanocrysralline $TiO_2$ electrode and Ru(II) complex (Ru${(bpy)_3}^{2+}$) is fabricated for low-cost high-efficient energy conversion device application. The nanocrysrallme $TiO_2$ layer (${\sim}10{\mu}m$ thickness) with large surface area (${\sim}360m^2$/g) can largely inject electrons from nanoporous $TiO_2$ electrode and allows the oxidation/reduction of Ru(II) complex in the nanopores. The cell structure is composed of a glass/ F-doped $SnO_2$(FTO)/ porous $TiO_2$/ Ru(II) complex in acetonitrile/ FTO/ glass. The nanocrysralline $TiO_2$ layer is prepared using sol-gel combustion method. The ECL efficiency of the cell consisting of the porous $TiO_2$ layers was 250 cd/W, which was higher than that consisting of only FTO electrode (50cd/W). The nanoporous $TiO_2$ layers wwas effective for increasine ECL intensities.
