Lithium p-［Methoxyoligo(ethyleneoxy)］ benzenesulfonates (LiEOnBS) with different repeating unit of ethylene oxide were synthesized and were used for preparing gel-polymer electrolytes. The conductivities and lithium ion transference number were measured as a function of Li-salt concentration and repeating unit of ethylene oxide of the LiEOnBS. The maximum conductivity of the resulting gel-polymer electrolyte was found to be 4.89${\times}$10$\^$－4/ S/cm (LiEO7.3BS, 0.5 M) at 30$^{\circ}C$. The lithium ion transference number (t$\sub$Li$\sub$＋//) measurement were performed by means of the combination do polarization and ac impedance methods in gel-polymer electrolytes. Lithium ion transference number was measured to be in the range of 0.75∼0.92 for the LiEOnBS containing gel-polymer electrolytes. The maximum t$\sub$Li$\sub$＋// was obtained to be 0.92 for the 0.1 M LiEOnBS containing polymer electrolytes. The synthesized LiEOnBS showed single ion transport like characteristics when n was large than 3.

ZnO($Zn_{1+x}O$)는 n-type 반도성 세라믹스로 우수한 전기적, 광학적, 화학적 특성을 갖고 있어 바리스터, 투명 전도막, 화학 및 바이오 센서, UV light emitter 등 다양한 용도로 사용되고 있다. 또한 ZnO에 각종 천이 금속 산화물을 일정량 첨가함에 따라 발생하는 결함준위와 입계 특성의 변화에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 다양한 천이 금속 산화물의 첨가에 따른 전기적 광학적 특성의 변화에 대한 결과들이 많이 보고되고 있지만 서로 상충되거나 해석상 다소 어려운 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 ZnO에 $Cr_2O_3$를 2.0 at% 첨가하여 Cr 첨가에 따른 ZnO의 결함준위와 입계 특성 변화에 대하여 각종 유전함수($Z^*$, $Y^*$, $M^*$, $\varepsilon^*$, and $tan{\delta}$)를 이용하여 고찰하였다 ZnO에 Cr을 첨가할 경우 결함 중 장범위 쿨롱 인력에 의한 결함(0.13~0.18 eV)이 ~100K 영역에서 나타났으며, ZnO 내 결함 중 대표적인 $Zn_j$와 $V_o$는 서로 겹쳐서 나타났다. 이들 중첩된 결함에 대하여 각종 유전함수를 이용할 경우 서로 분리해 낼 수 있는 강점이 있음을 논하였다. 또한 각 결함준위가 강는 정전용랑(C)과 저항(R)을 impedance-modulus spectroscopy를 이용하여 구한 결과, 소결온도가 높아질수록 정전용량은 증가하였으며, 측정온도가 놓아질수록 높아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 입계의 정전용량은 소결온도가 높아질수록 높아 지지만 측정온도가 높아질수록 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 각 저항값은 소결온도 및 측정온도가 높아질수록 지수적으로 감소하였다. 또한 분포함수를 이용하여 입계 안정성에 대하여 고찰하였다.

Various kinds of metals were coated on synthetic graphite in order to investigate the relationship between film characteristics and their electrochemical performance. Gas suspension spray coating method was employed for the coating of synthetic graphite. In our experimental range, all of the metal coated synthetic graphite showed the higher capacity than that of raw material at high C-rate mainly due to decrease in impedance of passivation film. In cyclic voltammetry experiments, silver-coated and tin-coated graphite anodes found the lithium-alloy reaction. Considering smaller amount of metal coating, the most increase in discharge capacity was caused by improvement of conductivity of the electrode. When single-component metal was coated, silver-coated graphite anode exhibited the highest discharge capacity and better cycleability. Double components of silver-nickel coated active material showed the highest discharge capacity, rate capability and the best cycle performance in the range of our experiments.

This paper presents a tapered slot-antenna(TSA) for optimal impulse-signal transmission in ultra-wide band(UWB). The proposed TSA provides radiates in end-fire direction, which meets an impulse-radio UWB(IR-UWB) system demands(e.g., low loss, thus less error throughout the UWB band). In order to minimize the pulse distortion, we used an wideband impedance transformer and a microstrip slotline. The pulse fidelity characteristics was evaluated with finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) analysis technique and pulse fidelity correlation equation. Approximately 93.89 % pulse fidelity was obtained between the two antennas in 0.5 m range. Additionally, derived chirp Z-transform algorithm enables us to utilize the zoom-in option on the pulse signal in few nano-seconds below. Thus, it is possible to analyze the pulse signal distortion, delay or dispersion characteristics.

In this paper, a microstrip-fed multiband monopole antenna for GPS(Global positioning system)/WiMAX(:Worldwide interoperability for microwave access)/WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) for applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a microstrip-fed structure, and composed of two rectangular double rings and L strips pair and then designed in order to get triple band characteristics. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS). The proposed antenna is made of $27.0{\times}54.0{\times}1.0mm3$ and is fabricated on the permittivity 4.4 FR-4 substrate. The experiment results shown that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 300 MHz (1.325~1.625 GHz), 400 MHz (2.275~2.675 GHz), and 600 MHz (3.15~3.75 GHz) covering the GPS/WiMAX/WLAN bands. Also, the proposed antenna measured gain and radiation patterns characteristics for required operating bands.

In this study, the performance characteristics of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) were investigated at low operating temperatures under steady-state and dynamic conditions. The performance of the PEMFC was analyzed according to the external humidifying rate and air stoichiometry. The ohmic resistance was also investigated using EIS tests. At the operating temperature of $35^{\circ}C$, voltage fluctuation occurred to a greater degree compared to that at $45^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it was found that the air stoichiometry should be higher than 2.5 for the stable operation of the fuel cell. In addition, the relative humidity of the reactant gases should be higher than 60 to reduce the ohmic resistance.

The paper experimentally deals with the radial in-plane vibration characteristics of disk-shaped piezoelectric transducers. The radial in-plane motion, which is induced due to Poisson's ratio in the piezoelectric disk polarized in the thickness direction, was measured by using an in-plane laser vibrometer, and the natural frequencies were measured by using an impedance analyzer. The experimental results have been compared with theoretical predictions obtained by simplified theoretical and finite-element analyses. It appears that the fundamental mode of a piezoelectric disk transducer is a radial mode and its radial displacement distribution from the center to the perimeter is not monotonic but shows maximum slightly apart from the perimeter. The theoretically-calculated fundamental frequencies agree well with the finite-element results for small thickness-to-diameter ratio, and they are accurate within 7 % error for the ratio up to 0.4.

Because the non-linear property of the rubber, the elastic modulus and damping factor of the rubber mount are dependent on the frequency. Therefore, the dynamic properties of the rubber mount should be considered when the anti-vibration mount is designed. Especially, when the numerical analysis is performed, the results can have much errors not considering the dynamic characteristics of the rubber mount. In this paper, the dynamic properties of typical standard rubber mount approved by ROK navy are defined experimentally and the results from the numerical analysis and experiment are compared for considering and non-considering the dynamic properties of the rubber mount respectively.

The fault current limiting characteristics of superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) using magnetic coupling of two coils were investigated. This SFCL consists of a high-TC superconducting(HTSC) element and two coils with series or parallel connection on the same iron. In normal time, the inner magnetic fluxes generated by two coils are canceled in case that the HTSC element keeps superconducting state. However, in case that the resistance of the HTSC element happens by a short-circuit the magnetic fluxes, not cancelled, induce the voltages across two coils and the fault current can be limited by the impedance of this SFCL. This SFCL has the merit that the operational current of SFCL can be increased higher than the critical current of the superconducting element by adjusting the inductance ratio between two coils. To confirm its operation, the circuit for the fault simulation was constructed. From the measured voltage and current of the SFCL, it was confirmed that the operating current of this SFCL increased more than that of HTSC element's independent operation.
