In this paper, we experiment the characteristics of coupling coefficient, gain, diffraction efficiency and dependence of time determined by TWM(Two-Wave Mixing), using Fe-LiNbO$_3$ crystal(doped with 0.015Wt.%). From these results, we proposed to apply for optical memory application. The highest coupling angle of 14。 and maximum coupling coefficient of 6.9$cm^{-1}$ / are obtained at 514.5nm wavelength. Also, maximum diffraction efficiency is 54.13% when intensity ratio and writing beam incident angle are 0.1 and 14o, respectively. After fixing process, diffraction efficiency is 21.4%. As an example, we demonstrated the writing and reconstruct optical data using spatial light modualtor and angular multiplexing in most optimal condition.

Lithium cobalt oxide $(LiCoO_2)$ cathode powders for rechargeable battery have been successfully prepared using urea hydrolysis method. The obtained hydrolysis-derived precursors with different Li/Co molar ratio were calcined at various temperatures. Low temperature phase $(LT-LiCoO_2)$ and high temperature phase $(HT-LiCoO_2)$ were obtained after calcination at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr, and phase transformation from $LT-LiCoO_2{\;}to{\;}HT-LiCoO_2$ was completely occurred over $700^{\circ}C$. The layered structure of $LiCoO_2$ was well developed with a rise in the calcination temperature. Charge-discharge test show that the lithium cobalt oxide with 1.2 molar ratio prepared at $800^{\circ}C$ has an initial discharge capacity as high as 152 mAh/g, and the relatively stable cycling characteristic with 9.2 % of capacity fading was obtained after 40th charge-discharge test.

Platinum anodes are widely used for metal oxides reduction in LiCl-Li₂O, however high-cost and low-corrosion resistance hinder their implementation. NiO-Li₂O ceramics is an alternative corrosion resistant anode material. Anode processes on platinum and NiO-Li₂O ceramics were studied in (80 mol.%) LiCl-(20mol.%)KCl and (80 mol.%)LiCl-(20 mol.%)KCl-Li₂O melts by cyclic voltammetry, potentiostatic and galvanostatic electrolysis. Experiments performed in the LiCl-KCl melt without Li₂O illustrate that a Pt anode dissolution causes the Pt²⁺ ions formation at 3.14 V and 550℃ and at 3.04 V and 650℃. A two-stage Pt oxidation was observed in the melts with the Li₂O at 2.40 ÷ 2.43 V, which resulted in the Li₂PtO₃ formation. Oxygen current efficiency of the Pt anode at 2.8 V and 650℃ reached about 96%. The anode process on the NiO-Li₂O electrode in the LiCl-KCl melt without Li₂O proceeds at the potentials more positive than 3.1 V and results in the electrochemical decomposition of ceramic electrode to NiO and O₂. Oxygen current efficiency on NiO-Li₂O is close to 100%. The NiO-Li₂O ceramic anode demonstrated good electrochemical characteristics during the galvanostatic electrolysis at 0.25 A/cm² for 35 h and may be successfully used for pyrochemical treating of spent nuclear fuel.

[ $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ ]cathode material for lithium secondary battery is obtained using co-precipitation method. To determine the optimal metal solution concentration value, the CSTR coprecipitation was carried out at various concentration values(1-2 mol/L). The surface morphology of coated samples was characterization by SEM(scanning electron microscope) and XRD (X-Ray Diffraction)analyses. Impedance analysis and cyclic voltammogram presented that internal resistance of the cell was dependent upon the concentration of metal solution. such data is very helpful in determining the optimal content of metal solution concentration to enhancing electrochemical property by adjusting powder size distribution and crystal structure.

We demonstrate a new surface modification of high-voltage lithium cobalt oxide ($LiCoO_2$) cathode active materials for lithium-ion batteries. This approach is based on exploitation of a polarity-tuned gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) coating. Herein, two contrast polymers having different polarity are chosen: polyimide (PI) synthesized from thermally curing 4-component (pyromellitic dianhydride/biphenyl dianhydride/phenylenediamine/oxydianiline) polyamic acid (as a polar GPE) and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) containing 12 wt% vinyl acetate repeating unit (as a less polar GPE). The strong affinity of polyamic acid for $LiCoO_2$ allows the resulting PI coating layer to present a highly-continuous surface film of nanometer thickness. On the other hand, the less polar EVA coating layer is poorly deposited onto the $LiCoO_2$, resulting in a locally agglomerated morphology with relatively high thickness. Based on the characterization of GPE coating layers, their structural difference on the electrochemical performance and thermal stability of high-voltage (herein, 4.4 V) $LiCoO_2$ is thoroughly investigated. In comparison to the EVA coating layer, the PI coating layer is effective in preventing the direct exposure of $LiCoO_2$ to liquid electrolyte, which thus plays a viable role in improving the high-voltage cell performance and mitigating the interfacial exothermic reaction between the charged $LiCoO_2$ and liquid electrolytes.

$Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ has been considered a potential material for high power lithium batteries. Since $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ is however an insulator having a broad band gap, various methods have been employed to improve the conductivity. In this study, we have investigated the change of fine structure and electronic structure by Cr doping using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and First Principle Calculation. Doping with Cr, we could obtain an enhanced electronic conductivity by locating the Fermi level at the center position of Cr d-band and identify the change of XANES pre-edge and white line peak due to the increase of electron density of Ti d-band.

Objectives : The objective of this case report was to investigate the effect of electroacupuncture for the management of shoulder pain caused by stroke. Methods : Electroacupuncture at $LI_{15}$ and $TE_{14}$ was performed to five patients who complained of shoulder pain after stroke. We have evaluated the efficacy of treatments by measuring the changes of pain rating score (PRS) and range of motion (ROM) of shoulder joint once a week. Results : PRS was significantly decreased after treatment ($p$<0.05). ROM of shoulder was also decreased but there was not statistical significance. Conclusions : These results suggest that electroacupuncture at $LI_{15}$ and $TE_{14}$ will be beneficial for the treatment of shoulder pain caused by stroke.

Water inrush through the destruction of water resisting rock mass structure was divided into direct water inrush, key block water inrush and splitting water inrush. In the direct water inrush, the Reynolds numbers has a significant effect on the distribution of the water flow and vortex occurred in the large Reynolds numbers. The permeability coefficient of the fracture is much larger than the rock, and the difference is between 104 and 107 times. The traditional theory and methods are not considering the effect of inertia force. In the position of the cross fracture, the distribution of water flow can only be linearly distributed according to the fracture opening degree. With the increase of Reynolds number, the relationship between water flow distribution and fracture opening is studied by Semtex.

The electronic structure of two dimensional layered compound, FeOCl, is studied with the band model and the cluster model approximation employing Extended-Huckel (EH) method. We examine the effects of intercalation (e.g., localization of transferred electron, conductivity increase). FeOCl has the electronic structure typical for layered compounds as expected. For FeOCl-$Li_{1/2}$ system, the charge transfer from Li to the FeOCl lattice occurs, and electrons are built up almost exclusively on Fe atoms. The partially filled band of FeOCl-$Li_{1/2}$ complex is responsible for the increase in conductivity.
