  • The electrochemical impulse oscillations of the cathodic currents at the platinum group (Pt, Pd) electrode/(0.05M KHC$_{8}H_{4}O_{4}$) buffer solution interfaces have been studied using voltammetric, chronoamperometric, and electrochemical impedance methods. The periodic impulses of the cathodic currents are the activation controlled currents due to the hydrogen evolution reaction, and depend on the fractional surface coverage of the adsorbed hydrogen intermediate and potential. The oscillatory mechanism of the cathodic current impulses is connected with the unstable steady state of negative differential resistance. The widths and periods of the cathodic current impulses are 4ms or 5ms and 152.5ms or 305ms, respectively. The H$^{+}$ discharge reaction step is 38 or 61 times faster thatn the recombination reaction steps and the H$^{+}$ mass transport processes. The atom-atom recombination reaction step is twice faster thatn the atom-ion recombination reaction step. The two kinds of active sites corresponding to the atom-atom and atom-ion recombination reaction steps exist on the platinum group electrode surfaces.

  • In order to fabricate the multilayer piezoelectric transformer by tape casting method, we investigated the effect of $TiO_2$ and PZT powder additions on the Ag/Pd electrode. Meanwhile, effects of $TiO_2$ and PZT powder additives on the microstructure and electrical properties of Ag/Pd electrode were investigated in detail. In addition, the multilayer piezoelectric transformers were fabricated and the characteristics with various load resistance were measured at resonance frequency. The voltage step-up ratio was continuously change with increasing input voltage and load resistance, and then output voltage and powers were increased with increasing input voltage at matching impedance. The temperature rise of multilayer piezoelectric transformers were increased with increasing input voltage and load resistance. Meanwhile, multilayer piezoelectric transformers sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ show the favorable characteristics with a power of 15 W at $100\;{\Omega}$.

  • Grounding electrode design is an important part in lightning protection, and the limit of hazardous voltages (step and touch voltages) below the permissible voltage for human body has been the main goal of grounding electrode design. In this paper, the grounding electrode for the reduction of hazardous voltages was designed and evaluated newly. It was known that the inclined auxiliary grounding conductors installed outside the grounding mesh grid are very effective to reduce the step and touch voltages.

  • The demands to improve the performance of the vanadium redox flow battery have attracted an intense research on modifying the carbon-based electrode. In this study, the surface of graphite felt was reformed, using cobalt oxide. The cobalt oxide was implanted into graphite felt during hydrothermal and two step heat treatments. The cobalt was deposited by hydrothermal method and the two step heat treatments made lots of holes on the graphite felt surface which is called as porous surface. The porous surface acts as an electrochemically active site for the cathodic reaction of vanadium redox flow battery. The reformed electrode shows the electrochemically improved performance compared with the pristine electrode.

  • In DSSC, fundamental process conditions of upper electrode were established and low cost-oriented method for TCO layer was proposed. Especially, prominent properties, that is, open-circuit voltage of 500mV or more and short-circuit current of $25mA/cm^2$ were yielded by 2-step sintering of semiconductive powder layer. High efficiency-DSSC was able to fabricate without high cost-semiconductor apparatus in common laboratory conditions.

  • Details on the electrochemical formation of lead dioxide from aqueous plumbous ion are studied by measuring current-time behavior with potential step method at a rotating platinum electrode. A cubic law without induction period can be applied to the crystallization of lead dioxide in both acetate and nitrate media. In the course of the mechanistic study, the presence of a soluble intermediate during the nucleation step is clearly observed with a rotating ring-disk electrode. Decrease in the anodic ring current due to the reduction of soluble species formed during the anodic crystallization of lead dioxide at disk is detected.

  • The flow rate is higher in ACEO micro-pumps with step electrodes than in micro-pumps with planar asymmetric electrodes. In the present study, numerical simulations were made of a ACEO micro-pump with step electrodes to investigate the effects of electrode design parameters on the pumping flow rate. The electrical charge at the electrodes, the fluid flow, and potential were solved, taking into account the finite size of ions, that is, the steric effect. This effect is recognized to be capable of quantifying the electrical charge more accurately in the electrical double layer subject to high voltages. Geometrical parameters such as heights, widths, and gaps of three-dimensional electrodes were optimized to enhance the pumping flow rate. Moreover, the effect of amplitude and frequency of AC was studied.

  • Composite insulation system of liquid nitrogen and solid spacer is widely applied in high temperature superconduction power machine. This study has three step procedure. As follow, first step is composition of parallel deposited electrode and vertically deposited electrode along the direction of immersion in liquid nitrogen(LN2). Second step is investigation into surface flashover voltage of solid spacer under partially immersed in LN2, and last step is comparison the result of this research with that of fully immersed in LN2 and at cryogenic temperature gaseous nitrogen(GN2). This result presented that surface flashover voltage along solid spacer half immersed in LN2 was almost the same as that of fully immersed spacer when the thickness of spacer(t) was t<10mm. In the case of t> 10mm, however, spacer flashover voltage was equal to that obtained in GN2 at cryogenic temperature. And the immersed direction functions as role of deciding the difference of surface flashover voltage.
