摘要:
Provided are an abrupt MIT device with variable MIT temperature or voltage, an MIT sensor using the abrupt MIT device, and an alarm apparatus and a secondary battery anti-explosion circuit including the MIT sensor. The MIT device includes an abrupt MIT layer undergoing an abrupt MIT at a transition temperature or a transition voltage and at least two electrode layers contacting the abrupt MIT layer. The transition temperature or the transition voltage varies with at least one of factors including a voltage applied to the electrode layers, a temperature, an electromagnetic wave, a pressure, and a gas concentration that affect the abrupt MIT layer. The MIT sensor is a temperature sensor, an infrared sensor, an image sensor, a pressure sensor, a gas-concentration sensor, or a switch. The alarm apparatus includes the MIT sensor and an alarm-signaling unit connected in series with the MIT sensor. The secondary battery anti-explosion circuit includes a secondary battery, the MIT sensor attached to the secondary battery to sense the temperature of the secondary battery and thus to prevent the possible explosion of the secondary battery, and a protection circuit body powered by the secondary battery.

Provided are a temperature sensor using a metal-insulator transition (MIT) device subject to abrupt MIT at a specific temperature and an alarm including the temperature sensor. The abrupt MIT device includes an abrupt MIT thin film and at least two electrode thin films that contacts the abrupt MIT thin film. The abrupt MIT device generates abrupt metal-insulator transition at a specific transition temperature. The alarm includes a temperature sensor comprising an abrupt MIT device, and an alarm signaling device serially connected to the temperature sensor. Accordingly, the alarm can be manufactured to have a simple circuit and be of a small size by including the temperature sensor using an abrupt MIT device.

Provided are a low-voltage noise preventing circuit using an abrupt metal-insulator transition (MIT) device which can effectively remove a noise signal with a voltage less than a rated signal voltage. The abrupt MIT device is serially connected to the electrical and/or electronic system to be protected from the noise signal, and is subject to abrupt MIT at a predetermined voltage. Accordingly, low-voltage noise can be effectively removed.

Provided is a lithium secondary battery including a discharge unit capable of delaying or preventing a battery explosion. The lithium secondary battery includes a discharge unit disposed parallel to a battery body. The discharge unit includes a first electrode connected to a positive electrode of the battery body, a second electrode connected to a negative electrode of the battery body, and a discharge material film, disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, inducing a abrupt discharge above a predetermined temperature. The discharge material film, e.g., a abrupt metal-insulator transition (MIT) material film can induce a abrupt discharge, thereby preventing or delaying a battery explosion.

Provided are a memory device that undergoes no structural phase change, maintains a uniform thin film, and can perform a high-speed switching operation, and a method of operating the same. The memory device includes a substrate, an abrupt MIT material layer, and a plurality of electrodes. The abrupt MIT material layer is disposed on the substrate and undergoes an abrupt metal-insulator transition by an energy change between electrons. The plurality of electrodes are brought into contact with the abrupt MIT material layer and are melted by heat to form a conductive path on the abrupt MIT material layer.

An abrupt MIT (metal-insulator transition) device with parallel conducting layers is provided. The abrupt MIT device includes a first electrode disposed on a certain region of a substrate, a second electrode disposed so as to be spaced a predetermined distance apart from the first electrode, and at least one conducting layer electrically connecting the first electrode with the second electrode and having a width that allows the entire region of the conducting layer to be transformed into a metal layer due to an MIT. Due to this configuration, deterioration of the conducting layer, which is typically caused by current flowing through the conducting layer, is less likely to occur.
