A layered planer SOFC module was designed from planar-type SOFC. It was prepared by multi-layered ceramic technology. To form the cathode and the anode in the layered structure, reliable channels should be made on the both side of electrolyte perpendicularly. However, monolithic SOFC using multi-layered ceramic technology hasn't been studied another group, and the warpage of electrolyte in the channel, also, hasn't been studied, when electrode is printed on the electrolyte. In this study, the channels are prepared with electrode printing, and their warpage are evaluated. In the case of YSZ without electrode, the warpages are nothing in the limit of measurement using optical microscope. The warpage of 'YSZ-NiO printed' increases than that of 'NiO printed', and also, the case of 'double electrode printed' is similar to 'YSZ-NiO printed'. It is thought that, in the printed electrolyte, the warpage is related to the difference of the sintering behavior of each material.

본 연구에서는 개미산 연료전지의 연료극에서 Pt 촉매의 안정성과 활성을 높이기 위해 Bi를 UPD법을 이용하여 Pt 촉매 위에 증착시켰다. 증착된 Bi의 활용도를 높이기 위해 다층 전극구조를 적용하였으며, 전자탐침미세분석(EPMA) 결과에서 Bi가 장기성능 실험동안 촉매층에 안정적으로 존재하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 연료전지 성능실험에서는 Pt black 촉매 위에 Bi를 UPD한 다층 구조의 전극이 PtRu black 촉매보다 전류밀도 $150mA/cm^2$에서 약 200 mV정도 높은 성능을 나타냈다. Pt black을 40% Pt/C로 대체했을 경우 역시 높은 성능과 장기 안정성을 보였다.

To improve the conventional cathode-supported tubular solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) from the viewpoint of low cell power density, expensive fabrication process and high operation temperature, the anode-supported tubular solid oxide fuel cell was investigated. The anode tube of Ni-8mol% $Y_2$O$_3$-stabilized $ZrO_2$ (8YSZ) was manufactured by extrusion process, and, the electrolyte of 8YSZ and the multi-layered cathode of $LaSrMnO_3$(LSM)ILSM-YSZ composite/$LaSrCoFeO_3$ were coated on the surface of the anode tube by slurry dip coating process, subsequently. Their cell performances were examined under gases of humidified hydrogen with 3% water and air. In the thermal cycle condition of heating and cooling rates with $3.33^{\circ}C$/min, the anode-supported tubular cell showed an excellent resistance as compared with the electrolyte-supported planar cell. The optimum hydrogen flow rate was evaluated and the air preheating increased the cell performance due to the increased gas temperature inside the cell. In long-term stability test, the single cell indicated a stable performance of 300 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 0.85 V for 255 hr.

The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has attracted great deal of attention due to its high electrical efficiency, high waste-heat utilization, fuel flexibility, and application versatility. However, SOFC technology is still not matured enough to fulfill the practical requirements for commercialization. Therefore, all the research and development activities are mainly focused on a development of practically viable SOFCs with higher performance and better reliability. We were successful in fabricating high-performance anode-supported unit cells by employing hierarchically controlled multi-layered electrodes for both structural reliability and high performance. In addition, a novel composite sealing gasket made it possible to achieve excellent sealing integrity even with considerable surface irregularities in a multi-cell planar arrayed stack.

In this study, multilayered SnO nanoparticles are prepared using oleylamine as a surfactant at 165℃. The physical and chemical properties of the multilayered SnO nanoparticles are determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Interestingly, when the multilayered SnO nanoparticles are heated at 400℃ under argon for 2 h, they become more efficient anode materials, maintaining their morphology. Heat treatment of the multilayered SnO nanoparticles results in enhanced discharge capacities of up to 584 mAh/g in 70 cycles and cycle stability. These materials exhibit better coulombic efficiencies. Therefore, we believe that the heat treatment of multilayered SnO nanoparticles is a suitable approach to enable their application as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

Double-diffusive convection with verical temperature and concentration gradients in thermally stratified fluids has been investigated experimentally using an electrochemical technique. Cupric sulfuric-sulffuric acid solution confined between two horizontal copper electrodes was used. The change of thermal and solutal buoyance has no influence on the range of voltage for the limiting current. Due to Soret effect, the onset time of natural convection is delayed as the stabilizing thermal buoyancy decreases. Also it is found that the shrinkage of the unstabilizing solutal buoyancy makes the onset of natural convection retard. Multi-layered convective phenomena do not appear because cupric sulfate-sulfuric acid solution is thermally stratified, and heat diffuses faster than cupric sulfate solfate solution.

To allow stable cycling of layered nickel-rich cathode material at high voltage, silyl-functionalized dimethoxydimethylsilane is proposed as a multi-functional additive. In contrast to typical functional additive, dimethoxydimethylsilane does not make artificial cathode-electrolyte interfaces by electrochemical oxidation because it is quite stable under anodic polarization. We find that dimethoxydimethylsilane mainly focuses on scavenging nucleophilic fluoride species that can be produced by electrolyte decomposition during cycling, leading to improving interfacial stability of both nickel-rich cathode and graphite anode. As a result, the cell cycled with dimethoxydimethylsilane-controlled electrolyte exhibits 65.7% of retention after 100 cycle, which is identified by systematic spectroscopic analyses for the cycled cell.

전기적 특성을 가지는 4,4',4''-tris(N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino)-triphenylamine (1-TNATA)가 유기발광소자(OLED)에서 전극으로 사용되는 ITO (Indium Tin Oxide)와 홀 수송층(Hole Transport Layer, HTL) 사이에 박막으로 진공증착되었다. 분자배열이 잘 되어진 1-TNATA의 경우 ITO와 홀 수송층 사이의 계면에서 생기는 전하주입장벽을 줄임으로 소자의 안정성과 효율을 높여준다. 본 연구에서의 라만 스펙트라(Raman spectra) 분석 결과, 증착된 1-TNATA 박막의 열처리와 증착하는 동안 전자기장 처리에 의해서 박막이 집적되고 분자배열이 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 열처리를 한 경우 1-TNATA 박막으로의 전류 흐름이 25% 증가하였다. 또한, $110^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 1-TNATA 박막으로 제조된 다층유기발광소자의 전원 효율과 발광효율이 향상되었다. 열처리한 박막이 전자기장으로 처리한 박막에 비해 높은 효율을 나타내었다.

High-efficiency phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes using TCTA-TAZ as a double host and $Ir(ppy)_3$ as a dopant were fabricated and their electro-luminescence properties were evaluated. The fabricated devices have the multi-layered organic structure of 2-TNATA/NPB/(TCTA-TAZ) : $Ir(ppy)_3$/BCP/SFC137 between an anode of ITO and a cathode of LiF/AL. In the device structure, 2-TNATA[4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine] and NPB[N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine] were used as a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, respectively. BCP [2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline] was introduced as a hole blocking layer and an electron transport layer, respectively. TCTA [4,4',4"-tris(N-carbazolyl)-triphenylamine] and TAZ [3-phenyl-4-(1-naphthyl)-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole] were sequentially deposited, forming a double host doped with $Ir(ppy)_3$ in the [TCTA-TAZ] : $Ir(ppy)_3$ region. Among devices with different thickness combinations of TCTA ($50\;{\AA}-200\;{\AA}$) and TAZ ($100\;{\AA}-250\;{\AA}$) within the confines of the total host thickness of $300\;{\AA}$ and an $Ir(ppy)_3$-doping concentration of 7%, the best electroluminescence characteristics were obtained in a device with $100\;{\AA}$-think TCTA and $200\;{\AA}$-thick TAZ. The $Ir(ppy)_3$ concentration in the doping range of 4%-10% in devices with an emissive layer of [TCTA ($100\;{\AA}$)-TAZ ($200\;{\AA}$)] : $Ir(ppy)_3$ gave rise to little difference in the luminance and current efficiency.
