Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on an axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes an uncoated portion at a long side end thereof and exposed out of the separator along a winding axis direction of the electrode assembly. A part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to form a bending surface region that includes overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and in a partial region of the bending surface region, the number of stacked layers of the uncoated portion is 10 or more in the winding axis direction of the electrode assembly.

Abstract: A battery cell includes an electrode assembly, a pair of electrode leads electrically connected to the electrode assembly, a battery case configured to accommodate the pair of electrode leads such that the pair of electrode leads protrude at least partially in a front and rear direction of the battery cell, the battery case having an accommodation space formed to accommodate the electrode assembly, and a taping unit configured to integrally cover both side surfaces and upper and lower surfaces of the battery case.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of a stress disease and depression, the pharmaceutical composition be safely useable without toxicity and side effects by using an extract of leaves of Vaccinium bracteatum Thunb., which is natural resource of Korea, so that the reduction of manufacturing and production costs and the import substitution and export effects can be expected through the replacement of a raw material for preparation with a plant inhabiting in nature.

Abstract: A battery pack is advantageous for effective control and maintenance of thermal events. A battery pack according to one aspect of the present disclosure may include a battery module having one or more battery cells; a fire extinguishing tank holding a fire extinguishing liquid, disposed on top of the battery module and having a through hole formed therein; and a cover member installed in the through hole of the fire extinguishing tank and configured to open or close the through hole according to a change in internal pressure of the fire extinguishing tank.

Abstract: A multispectral sensing device includes a first die, including silicon, which is patterned to define a first array of sensor elements, which output first electrical signals in response to optical radiation that is incident on the device in a band of wavelengths less than 1000 nm that is incident on the front side of the first die. A second die has its first side bonded to the back side of the first die and includes a photosensitive material and is patterned to define a second array of sensor elements, which output second electrical signals in response to the optical radiation that is incident on the device in a second band of wavelengths greater than 1000 nm that passes through the first die and is incident on the first side of the second die. Readout circuitry reads the first electrical signals and the second electrical signals serially out of the device.

Abstract: A battery module includes at least two cell assemblies, a module housing having an upper cover formed by a top portion and a first side portion extending downward from a first side edge of the top portion, a first gas passage formed between the first side portion of the upper cover and a first side of the at least two cell assemblies for circulation of gas generated from the at least two cell assemblies, and a flame retardant plate in the first gas passage and extending between the at least two cell assemblies and the module housing, wherein the first side portion of the upper cover is coupled to the flame retardant plate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing metallic lithium by electrolysis using a non-aqueous electrolyte at low temperature. The method for preparing metallic lithium according to the present invention can directly prepare metallic lithium by electrolysis at a low temperature, and enable mass production, and reduce the manufacturing cost due to its simple process and easy control of electrolytic conditions, and thus the method for preparing lithium thin films according to the present invention can be applied in the industry.

Abstract: An ultrasonic contact transducer for point-focussing surface waves having a narrow beam width and a high sound intensity at a focal point in order to obtain better resolution and high beam intensity, which is applicable to the nondestructive testing technique of the surface or subsurface of a specimen to be tested, is disclosed. The ultrasonic contract transducer generates surface waves, focuses the waves at one point on the surface of the specimen and receives again the signals scattered from the surface flaws or subsurface flaws of the specimen, in order to detect the surface cracks, surface flaws, subsurface flaws of the specimen and to detect the delamination in a thin laminated film.
