Zinc-ion Batteries (ZIBs) are currently considered to be effective energy storage devices for wearable electronics because of their low cost and high safety. Indeed, ZIBs show high power density and safety compared with conventional lithium ion batteries (LIBs) and exhibit high energy density in comparison with supercapacitors (SCs). However, in spite of their advantages, further current collector development is needed to enhance the electrochemical performance of ZIBs. To design the optimized current collector for high performance ZIBs, a high quality graphene film is suggested here, with improved electrical conductivity by controlling the defects in the graphene film. The graphene film showed improved electrical conductivity and good electron transfer between the current collector and active material, which led to a high specific capacity of 346.3 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 100 mA g^-1, a high-rate performance with 116.3 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 2,000 mA g^-1, and good cycling stability (68.0 % after 100 cycles at a current density of 1,000 mA g^-1). The improved electrochemical performance is firmly because of the defects-controlled graphene film, leading to improved electrical conductivity and thus more efficient electron transfer between the current collector and active material.

SnSe single crystal showed a high thermoelectric zT of 2.6 at 923 K mainly due to an extremely low thermal conductivity $0.23W\;m^{-1}\;K^{-1}$. It has anisotropic crystal structure resulting in deterioration of thermoelectric performance in polycrystalline SnSe, providing a low zT of 0.6 and 0.8 for Ag and Na-doped SnSe, respectively. Here, we presented the thermoelectric properties on the K-doped $K_xSn_{1-x}Se$ (x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 1.5, and 2.0%) polycrystals, synthesized by a high-temperature melting and hot-press sintering with annealing process. The K-doping in SnSe efficiently enhances the hole carrier concentration without significant degradation of carrier mobility. We find that there exist widespread Se-rich precipitates, inducing strong phonon scattering and thus resulting in a very low thermal conductivity. Due to low thermal conductivity and moderate power factor, the $K_{0.001}Sn_{0.999}Se$ sample shows an exceptionally high zT of 1.11 at 823 K which is significantly enhanced value in polycrystalline compounds.

본 연구에서는 탄소섬유의 첨가가 흑연 보강 전도성 고분자 복합재료의 전기적, 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 압축성형법을 이용하여 흑연입자/탄소섬유 혼합 보강 전도성 고분자 복합재료를 제조하였으며 흑연입자의 고비율 충진은 복합재료 내에서 입자 사이의 직접 접촉을 통해 높은 전기 전도도(>100S/cm)를 얻는 것을 가능하게 하였다. 하지만 흑연입자의 비율이 높아짐에 따라 소재의 강도가 점차 떨어지게 되므로 이를 보완하기 위해 탄소섬유를 첨가하여 그에 따른 소재의 전기적, 기계적 특성 변화를 연구하였다. 탄소섬유의 충진 비율이 증가함에 따라 소재의 굽힘 강도는 증가하였으나 탄소섬유의 클러스터 형성으로 인해 탄소섬유 사이에 비전도성 영역이 발생하여 복합재료의 전기 전도도는 감소함을 확인하였다. 탄소섬유의 충진 비율이 전체 시스템의 20wt.%인 경우에는 굽힘 강도는 12% 증가한 반면 전기 전도도가 27% 감소하였다.

A nanofluid is a fluid containing suspended solid particles, with sizes on the order of nanometers. Especially graphene nanoparticle that has the high thermal conductivity properties among the various nanoparticles added to the nanofluid is receiving attention. Graphene is a flat monolayer of $sp^2$-bonded carbon atoms tightly packed into a honeycomb lattice. And are known to have very high thermal conductivity. Therefore, we compared thermal conductivity with viscosity of graphene M-5 nanofluids and graphene M-15 nanofluids. Graphene M-5 and graphene M-15 have different average particle diameters and the other properties are the same. Two kinds of graphene nanofluids was examined by measuring thermal conductivity via transient hot-wire method. And the viscosity was measured by using a rotational digital viscometer. As a result, graphene M-5 nanofluids exhibited better thermal conductivity and viscosity than graphene M-15 nanofluids.

나일론의 종류에 따른 분쇄형 탄소 섬유/나일론 복합재료의 직류 및 교류 전도도, 그리고 전자기파 차폐 효율을 조사하였다. 탄소 섬유의 함량이 약 7 vol%에서 전도도가 급격하게 증가하는 percolation 전이가 관찰되었다. 나일론 46을 기저 수지로 하였을 경우 더욱 높은 전기 전도도를 나타냈으며, 계면 결합제의 적용 여부에 따라 전도도의 차이가 발생하였다. 온도증가에 따라 전도도가 증가하는 negative temperature coefficient 현상을 나타냈으며, percolation 전후의 탄소 섬유 함량에서의 주파수에 따른 전도기구를 완화와 공진 현상으로 각각 달리 설명할 수 있었다. 회로망 분석기를 통하여 측정한 전자기파 차폐 효율은 전도도 및 탄소 섬유의 함량에 따라 증가하였으며, 높은 전도도 영역에서의 전자기파 차폐 효율은 반사에 의한 차폐가 지배적이었다.

This study was performed in order to produce the basic data for devising irrigation project and desalinization countermeasure through analyzing salt movement and desalinzation effects. The Desalinization experiments with water management practices were carried out, using the soil samples collected in New Manguem tideland. The changes of electrical conductivity, exchangeable sodium percentage, pH and hydraulic conductivity during the desalinization experiments, and the correlations between various factors influencing desalinization, were analyzed by the statistical method. The results obtained from this study were summarized as follows: 1. The sample soils used in this study were salin-sotlic soils with the high electrical conductivity and the high exchangeable sodium percentage, and the soil texture was silt loam. 2. A large amount of the soluble salts was removed in the begining of desalinization experiments. The initial electrical conductivity and the initial exchangeable sodium percentage decreased considerably in the beginning, and were gradually slow in the rate of decrease 3. The value of pH showed a tendency to increase during the desalinization and were little by little slow in the rate of increase, and could be estimated by the regression equation. 4. The initial hydraulic conductivity were raised greatly with gypsum treatment and the penmeability was maintained adequately, The hydraulic conductivity and the leaching time elapsed during the desalinization could be estimated by the regression equation. 5. The water requirement for desalinization with various water management practices could be estimated for a given electrical conductivity, exchangeable sodium percentage, and pH reading respectively.

In the design of HLW repositories, it is important to confirm the performance and safety of buffer materials at high temperatures. Most existing models for predicting hydraulic conductivity of bentonite buffer materials have been derived using the results of tests conducted below 100℃. However, they cannot be applied to temperatures above 100℃. This study suggests a prediction model for the hydraulic conductivity of bentonite buffer materials, valid at temperatures between 100℃ and 125℃, based on different test results and values reported in literature. Among several factors, dry density and temperature were the most relevant to hydraulic conductivity and were used as important independent variables for the prediction model. The effect of temperature, which positively correlates with hydraulic conductivity, was greater than that of dry density, which negatively correlates with hydraulic conductivity. Finally, to enhance the prediction accuracy, a new parameter reflecting the effect of dry density and temperature was proposed and included in the final prediction model. Compared to the existing model, the predicted result of the final suggested model was closer to the measured values.

Graphite reinforced conductive polymer composites for PEMFC bipolar plates were fabricated by the compression molding technique. Graphite powder was mixed with an phenol resin to impart electrical property in composites. In this study, conductive polymer composites with high filler $loadings(>60wt.\%)$ were manufactured to accomplish high electrical conductivity above 100S/cm. The level of compaction is important because graphite powder increase electrical conductivity of composites by direct physical contact between particles. The optimum molding pressure according to filler was proposed experimentally. Various tests(electrical conductivity, flexural strength, compressive strength, leach test, etc) were carried out to verify the performance of fabricated composites for PEMFC bipolar plates. Fabricated composites have good electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. The results of leach test and contact angle measurement showed similar characteristics compared with commercial bipolar plates.

Several copolyimides have been synthesized with different combinations of comonomers in order to study the relationship between conductivity and water insolubility. m-Phenylenediamine (m-PDA), an angled comonomer, was introduced into the polymer backbone to increase water absorption, and resulted in higher proton conductivity. 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine (TFMB) was used as the comonomer to promote water insolubility. There is a good correlation between the water uptake and conductivity of the polyimides. The copolyimides that had high water uptake also generated high proton conductivity. Those polyimides had good mechanical properties. The copolyimides that have 27 mol% of TFMB and 9 mol% of m-PDA have reasonable conductivities and are insoluble in water at 90$^{\circ}C$, even though they have lower conductivities than those of the homopolymer.

The amorphous chalogenide semiconductors are new material in semiconductor physics. Their properties, especially electronic and optical properties are main motives for device application. Amorphous As$_{10}$Ge$_{15}$ Te$_{75}$material has the stable ac conductivity at high frequency and the dc memory switching property. At higher frequency than 10MHz, ac conductivity of As$_{10}$Ge$_{15}$ Te$_{75}$ thin film is much higher than below frequency and independent of temperature and frequency. If the dc voltages are applied between edges of thin film, one can see the dc memory switching phenomenon, in other words the dc conductivity increases quite a few of magnitude after the threshold voltage is applied. Using the stable ac conductivity at high frequency and the increase of conductivity after dc memory switching, As$_{10}$Ge$_{15}$ Te$_{75}$thin film is considered as new material for microwave switch devices.vices.es.vices.
