  • □ Hanbat National University announced on the 11th that a satellite payload developed by professor Park Jung-eons research team from the Department of Creative Convergence Engineering has been selected for the Space Verification Platform Unit 3 of the Nuri rockets 6th launch.○ The payload developed by Professor Park Jung-eons research team is a 'Radiation-Shielding DC/DC Converter' manufactured via xss-metal 3D printing and featuring domestic components and upscreened COTS power semiconductors. It will be deployed on the 6th Nuri rocket's space verification satellite in 2027 to stably convert and supply battery power to the low-voltage levels required by the payload control circuits.○ This selection is recognized as a significant achievement that proves the flight heritage and feasibility of domestic space components. Among the 24 competing teamsincluding SK Hynix, Samsung Electronics, LG Electronics, ETRI, and other leading universities and space startupsthe research team ranked in the top tier, demonstrating its technological excellence and competitive edge.□ Drawing on a decade of expertise at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), Professor Park Jung-eon led the development of this payload. His leadership is backed by numerous successful projects in domesticating electronics for various space systems, including low-earth orbit (LEO), geostationary, medium-sized, and small satellites, as well as lunar orbiters.○ Moving beyond theoretical research for academic papers, this technology was developed with a focus on manufacturing and validating flight-ready hardware for actual orbit. Its primary goal is to accumulate 'Space Heritage'a proven track record of successful operation in the space environment.○ For COTS power semiconductors, the team established a 100% screening protocol and Lot Acceptance Test (LAT) procedures based on NASA guidelines and MIL (U.S. Military Standard) specifications. By developing dedicated test boards and ground verification equipment, they secured a solid foundation for upscreening to ensure reliability in space environments.○ In addition, the team confirmed flight feasibility by validating the mechanical, thermal, and radiation performance of the xss-metal 3D-printed structures and housings. By incorporating domestic components into core circuits, they demonstrated the potential for self-sufficiency in the supply chain and the strengthening of the domestic technological base for space electronics.□ Professor Park Jung-eon stated, "The true significance of this selection lies not just in the selection itself, but in stably performing and completing the proposed mission profile throughout the mission period, once we have successfully entered the target orbit following the 6th Nuri rocket launch in 2027.○ He emphasized, "This is not about a basic verification like simply checking for communication signals right after launch. It is far more important to build Space Heritage by comprehensively proving that all planned functions are properly implemented and required performance levels are maintained in the actual space environment throughout the entire mission duration."○ He added, "To this end, we are planning space environment tests and TMTC (Telemetry & Telecommand) board interface tests this year. We also intend to release more detailed information regarding the specific components, functions, development process, and the research team behind our payload closer to the actual integration or launch date."□ Furthermore, this achievement serves as a prime example of the Department of Creative Convergence at Hanbat National University demonstrating its hardware-centered research and practical engineering education capabilities in the defense and space sectors. It holds great significance in strengthening the foundation for technological independence and fostering specialized professionals.○ Moreover, the department continues to carry out industry-academic projects with aerospace companies and government-funded research institutes. By integrating field-specific technical demands and development procedures into its education and research, the university is expanding its foundation for fostering a practical, job-ready workforce.

The research was published online on the 30th in Ceramics International, a prestigious international journal in the field of materials science, under the title "Electrochemical properties of xss-layered perovskite for the electrode of symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells."○ The research team synthesized xss-layered perovskite oxides with compositions of SmBa(Fe1-xMnx)2O5+d(X=0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5) and analyzed their electrochemical impedance characteristics in both air and hydrogen atmospheres using an LSGM (LaGaO3-based material) electrolyte-based half-cell.○ Consequently, the SmBa(Fe0.9Mn0.1)2O5+d composition exhibited a lower area-specific resistance (ASR) compared to the reference compositions across the entire temperature range, demonstrating relatively balanced electrode reaction characteristics in both air and hydrogen atmospheres."○ Furthermore, electrical conductivity measurements revealed that conductivity tended to decrease with increasing Mn content in both air and nitrogen atmospheres. This trend was confirmed to be associated with a reduction in orbital overlap and changes in hole concentration resulting from Mn substitution compared to the FeOFe bonds.○ In contrast, it was confirmed that a small amount of Mn substitution (X=0.1) contributed to an enhancement in electrical conductivity under a hydrogen atmosphere. Furthermore, an abrupt decrease in conductivity was observed at approximately 450C during the initial heating process.○ X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed a structural transition from cubic to orthorhombic occurring exclusively under a reducing atmosphere within that temperature range. This reveals that the structural transformation is a key factor directly linked to the observed changes in conductivity○ Subsequently, the electrical conductivity increased again in the high-temperature region. It was also confirmed that both the structural and electrical properties remained stable during repeated thermal cycling experiments.□ Professor Kim Jung-hyun from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering emphasized, "Through this study, we were able to systematically identify the effects of adjusting the Fe/Mn substitution ratio on the electrochemical performance, electrical conductivity, and structural stability of xss-layered perovskite electrodes." He further noted, "The core achievement of this research is confirming that a minor Mn substitution enables balanced performance for both oxygen reduction and hydrogen oxidation reactions, making it a viable symmetrical SOFC electrode capable of operating in both oxidizing and reducing atmospheres."○ First author Lim Yuri, a masters student, stated, The electrical conductivity and electrode reaction characteristics exhibited distinct changes depending on the Fe/Mn substitution ratio. A significant result of this study is the experimental elucidation of the correlation between structural transitions and conductivity changes occurring specifically in a reducing atmosphere. She added, These analytical results provide valuable design guidelines for optimizing electrode compositions in symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells (S-SOFCs).□ This work was a collaborative effort involving Hanbat National University, Lancaster University, HnPower Co., Ltd., and the University of Brunei Darussalam. The research was supported by the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) under the 'Chungcheong Region Distributed Energy Response Energy Technology Sharing University' program (No. RS-2024-00394769), and the Basic Research Program through the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) funded by the Ministry of Education (No. RS-2024-00464727).
