In the ferromagnetic phase with electrons for La$_{1-x}$(Ca or Sr)$_x$MnO$_3$, films, a remnant resistivity of the order of 10$^{-8}$ ${\omega}$m is observed up to 100 K and increases exponentially with temperature up to T$_c$ and above one Tesla as a function of magnetic field strength (a positive magnetoresistivity). The phase below T$_c$ is regarded as a polaronic state with a polaronic tunneling conduction. Possible p-wave condensation (or superconductor) with a parabolic density of states and the phase separation are discussed on the basis of the two-fold degeneracy of ${\varrho}_{\delta}$ orbitals.

유전율-분광법과 교류 전도도 측정 연구를 망간이 혼입된 층상구조의 $Na_{1.9}Li_{0.1}Ti_3O_7$에 시도하였다. 373-723K 온도와 100Hz-1MHz 주파수 영역에서 loss 탄젠트 (Tan$\delta$), 상대적 유전율 ($\varepsilon_{r}$) 그리고 교류 전도 도 ($\sigma_{ac}$)의 의존성을 혼입 유도체들에 대하여 조사하였다. 다양한 전도도 메커니즘이 존재하는데 MSLT-1과 MSLT-2의 경우에는 낮은 온도영역에서 전자에 의한 전도도를 보인다. MSLT-3의 경우에는 금지된 층간 이온 전 도도가 전자 전도도와 함께 존재한다. 이러한 층간 이온 전도도는 모든 혼입 유도체들에 대하여 중간 온도 영역에 존재한다. 가장 높은 온도 영역에서는 MSLT-1과 MSLT-2의 경우에는 이온 전도도와 polaron에 의한 전도도가 존재하고 MSLT-3에 대하여는 이온 전도도 만이 존재한다. 망간이 혼입된 층상구조의 $Na_{1.9}Li_{0.1}Ti_3O_7$에서 Loss 탄젠트 (Tan$\delta$)는 전자 전도도와 쌍극자의 위치, 그리고 공간 전하 분극화에 기인한다. 상대적 유전율의 증가는 층간 에 쌍극자 수의 증가에 기인하고 반면 상대적 유전율의 감소는 높은 혼입율에 따른 누전 전류의 증가에 기인한다.

Thermoelectric power, dc conductivity, and the dielectric relaxation properties of $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ are reported in the temperature range of 77 K - 300 K and in a frequency range of 20 Hz - 1 MHz. Thermoelectric power was positive below 300K. The measured thermoelectric power of $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ decreased linearly with temperature. The dc conductivity showed a temperature variation consistent with the variable range hopping mechanism at low temperatures and the adiabatic polaron hopping mechanism at high temperatures. The low temperature dc conductivity mechanism in $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ was analyzed using Mott's approach. The temperature dependence of thermoelectric power and dc conductivity suggests that the charge carriers responsible for conduction are strongly localized. The relaxation mechanism has been discussed in the frame of the electric modulus and loss spectra. The scaling behavior of the modulus and loss tangent suggests that the relaxation describes the same mechanism at various temperatures. The logarithmic angular frequency dependence of the loss peak is found to obey the Arrhenius law with activation energy of ~ 0.106eV. At low temperature, variable range hopping and large dielectric relaxation behavior for $La_2NiO_{4.03}$ are consistent with the polaronic nature of the charge carriers.

Lithium rechargeable batteries have been widely used as key power sources for portable devices for the last couple of decades. Their high energy density and power have allowed the proliferation of ever more complex portable devices such as cellular phones, laptops and PDA's. For larger scale applications, such as batteries in plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) or power tools, higher standards of the battery, especially in term of the rate (power) capability and energy density, are required. In PHEV, the materials in the rechargeable battery must be able to charge and discharge (power capability) with sufficient speed to take advantage of regenerative braking and give the desirable power to accelerate the car. The driving mileage of the electric car is simply a function of the energy density of the batteries. Since the successful launch of recent Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride)-based HEVs (Hybrid Electric Vehicles) in the market, there has been intense demand for the high power-capable Li battery with higher energy density and reduced cost to make HEV vehicles more efficient and reduce emissions. However, current Li rechargeable battery technology has to improve significantly to meet the requirements for HEV applications not to mention PHEV. In an effort to design and develop an advanced electrode material with high power and energy for Li rechargeable batteries, we approached to this in two different length scales - Atomic and Nano engineering of materials. In the atomic design of electrode materials, we have combined theoretical investigation using ab initio calculations with experimental realization. Based on fundamental understanding on Li diffusion, polaronic conduction, operating potential, electronic structure and atomic bonding nature of electrode materials by theoretical calculations, we could identify and define the problems of existing electrode materials, suggest possible strategy and experimentally improve the electrochemical property. This approach often leads to a design of completely new compounds with new crystal structures. In this seminar, I will talk about two examples of electrode material study under this approach; $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{0.5}O_2$ based layered materials and olivine based multi-component systems. In the other scale of approach; nano engineering; the morphology of electrode materials are controlled in nano scales to explore new electrochemical properties arising from the limited length scales and nano scale electrode architecture. Power, energy and cycle stability are demonstrated to be sensitively affected by electrode architecture in nano scales. This part of story will be only given summarized in the talk.
