최근 들어 메탈핼라이드램프의 아크튜브에 석영관을 대신하여 세라믹(Ceratmic)을 이용하는 기술이 개발되었으며, 이는 탁월한 내열성 및 내식성으로 메탈헬라이드램프로 하여금 우수한 색온도 및 연색성 유지특성을 가질 수 있게 하였다. 본 논문는 국내의 차세대 세라믹 아크튜브 메탈핼라이드램프(Ceratmic Metal Halide lamp) 개발에 필요한 국외의 70W급 제품에 적용되는 세라믹 아크튜브에 대한 특성 분석을 통해 새로운 고효율, 장수명의 세라믹 메탈 핼라이드램프의 개발에 도움을 주고자 한다.

The metal halide lamps are now widely used in the application and commercial lighting due to their attracting properties such as good color rendering and high efficiency. But, they have the serious problem of acoustic resonance for high frequency operation and they need the high voltage to ignite. So, they have not been applied to indoors. Over the past few years, a considerable number of studies have been conducted on the electronic ballast together with hot restarting and resonance phenomenon. But, very few attempts have been made with the adaptive ignition method according to the lamp state. In this paper, electronic ballast is proposed for metal halide lamps with an igniter for adaptive ignition. The proposed electronic ballast can generate different ignition voltages according to the arc tube state.

Metal halide lamps have been made suitable for use in outdoor illumination systems over many years. They are also widely used in application and commercial lighting due to their attracting properties such as good quality color, rendering and high efficiency. Over the past few years, a considerable number of studies have been conducted on the electronic ballast with hot restarting and resonance phenomenon. However, very few attempts have been made at the adaptive ignition method according to lamp state. This paper proposes an electronic ballast for metal halide lamps with an igniter for adaptive ignition. The proposed electronic ballast can generate different ignition voltages according to the arc tube state. The experimental results showed that the proposed ballast circuit using adaptive igniter is suitable for 70W HQI lamps.

The synthesis of $C_{60}$@MWCNT was carried out at room temperature (${\sim}25^{\circ}C$) from arc-discharge prepared Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). They were oxidized and acid treated for tube opening. Then $C_{60}$ molecules were encapsulated into MWCNTs by wetting them with $C_{60}$-toluene solution for several minutes followed by ultrasonification. $C_{60}$@MWCNT was cleaned by pure toluene to remove any excess $C_{60}$. $C_{60}$@MWCNT was characterized by electron microscopy, which showed large scale filling of $C_{60}$ into MWCNTs. It was observed that the mechanism of insertion of $C_{60}$ into MWCNTs may be due to the capillary suction at the opening ends of MWCNTs.

The most of metalhalide lamp is what the momentary restarting cannot be realized when the arc tube is in the hot condition. But if the lamp is restarted in the hot conditidn, we must supply the high voltage pulse with 15kv between the both electrodes of lamp. The proposed ignitor has two ignitors. If we connect each ignitor at the both sides, the high voltages of two different frequencies are generated. if so, when the one of the ignitor generates the highest voltage and the other applied generates the lowest voltage. At this time, the widest difference of voltage is applied to electrodes of the lamp. In this way, we can restart the lamp with the voltage 15kv, even if the lamp is in the hot condition.

This paper presents the design and imelementation of an electronic ballast with a passive PFC structure from which acoustic resonance of the metal halide lamp was removed by introducing the frequency modulation(FM) method. The proposed ballast consists of an EMI filter, passive PFC circuit full-bridge inverter, LC resonance type igniter and a circuit for removing acoustic resonance. The FM method solved two problems associated with single frequency driving: variation of the acoustic resonance range according to lamp aging and the acoustic resonance range discrepancy caused by different materials sealed inside the arc tube and their pressures for arc tubes of identical sizes from different manufacturers. Performance of the prototype developed for this study of the electronic ballast for 1[kW] metal halide lamp was verified by evaluating its optical conversion efficiency, input PF, input current THD and power conversion efficiency.

In this study, to repair damaged economizer fin tubes on ships, sealing treatment was performed after applying arc thermal spray coating technology using Inconel 625. A solid particle erosion (SPE) experiment was conducted according to ASTM G76-05 to evaluate the durability of the substrate, thermal spray coating (TSC), and thermal spray coating+sealing treatment (TSC+Sealing) specimens. The surface damage shape was observed using a scanning electron microscope and 3D laser microscope, and the durability was evaluated through the weight loss and surface roughness analysis. Consequently, the durability of the substrate was superior to that of TSC and TSC+Sealing, which was believed to be owing to numerous pore defects in the TSC layer. In addition, the mechanism of solid particle erosion damage was accompanied by plastic deformation and fatigue, which were the characteristics of ductile materials in the case of the substrate, and the tendency of brittle fracture in the case of TSC and TSC+Sealing was confirmed.

With xeroradiography appearance, DR (Digital Radiography) system have been studying for X-ray detection using photoreceptor. Also detection method for receptor charge change have been developing variably. We use photoreceptor material of a-Se(Amorphous Selenium) with high DQE, high SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) and high transformation efficiency of X-ray signals into electrical signals. After a-Se receptor is uniformly charged by using Arc discharge, X-ray is exposed. Then a-Se receptor produce subtle charge variation and MOSFET detect charge variations. The detected signal pass A/D converter and signal processing by PC. As results, the initial voltage is 8V. It has wide dynamic range needed digital radiography system. In this study, we obtained data with changing kVp(tube potential voltage) and fixed 8mAs(tube current by exposure time) in X-ray system. However MOSFET detector for X-ray signal is not tested X-ray mAs variations. But if MOSFET detector is tested X-ray mAs variation and exactly calibrated multichannel is made and noise-reduction is done, suitable DR system readout method will be done.

We measure the 3-dimensional temporal behavior of the light emitted from the discharge cell of a plasma display panel (PDP) by using a scanned point detecting system. The light signal detected by a PM tube is sent to the oscilloscope, and the oscilloscope is connected to a PC with GPIB. From the resultant temporal behaviors, we could analyze the discharge characteristics of the panel with a Ne-Xe (4%) mixing gas at a 400 torr pressure. The top view of the panel shows that discharge moves from the inner edge of the cathode electrode to the outer cathode electrode, forming an arc shape. The side view of the panel shows that the light is detected up to 150 $\mu\textrm{m}$ up the barrier rib. After a trigger pulse is applied, peak intensity is detected at 730 ns and peak intensity position is located at the center of the ITO electrodes.
