We have investigated the electro-optical characteristics of image sticking in AC PDP. Although Image sticking is one of major factors to determine display quality in AC PDP, so far, it has not being reported why it is occurred and how we can prevent it. In this experiment, we have analyzed the effect of MgO protective layer and phosphor on the image sticking and we have measured the difference of firing voltage, brightness and discharge current between sticking image and normal image in AC PDP. As a result, Phosphor degradation is a more major factor than MgO protective layer and the firing voltage of gas discharge in sticking image is higher than that of normal discharge.

This paper represents the characteristic analyses for the etching in SF6 plasma and the plasma itself, based on the specific knowledges on the discharge mechanism of SF6 plasma which is widely used for the applications of dry etching, using Radio Frequency Inductively Coupled Plasma (RFICP) by measuring electron density, electron temperature then observing their relationship to find the effect of discharge mechanism of SF6 plasma to the etching in contrast to the existing method of finding optimal discharge condition by heuristic.

The breakdown characteristics of surface discharge investigated experimentally agree well with the analytic results of previous reports [1-3] in various electrode geometries. Additionally, we find that the electrode geometry effects on the firing voltage can be understood with the ionization probability relating to the number of priming particles. We have also observed the shape of surface discharge and the surface striations in the gap geometry with the pressure, the applied voltage, and the driving frequency.

In this study, WET (whole effluent toxicity) test with Skeletonema costatum, Tigriopus japonicus and Paralichthys olivaceus and ERA (environmental risk assessment) were conducted to assess the unacceptable effect on marine ecosystem by emitting the treated discharge water from 'ARA Plasma BWTS' BWMS (ballast water management system) using filtration, Plasma and MPUV module. 34 psu treated discharge water from ARA Plasma BWTS shown slight chronic toxicity effect on the P. olivaceus ($7d-LC_{50}{\Rightarrow}100.00%$ treated discharge water, $7d-LC_{25}{\Rightarrow}85.15%$ treated discharge water). Bromobenzene, chlorobenzene and 4-chlorotoluene in 34 psu treated discharge water from ARA Plasma BWTS were higher than in the background original content of seawater. The PECs (predictive environmental concentrations) of bromobenzene, chlorobenzene and 4-chlorotoluene calculated by MAMPEC (marine antifoulant model to predict environmental concentrations) program (ver. 3.0) were 3.34E-03, 2.10E-03 and 1.73E-03 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, respectively and PNECs (predicted no effect concentrations) of them were 1.6, 0.5 and 1.9 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$. The PEC/PNEC ratio of bromobenzene, chlorobenzene and 4-chlorotoluene did not exceed one and 3 substances did not consider as persistence, bioaccumulative and toxic. Therefore, it was suggested that treated discharge water from ARA Plasma BWTS did not pose unacceptable effect on marine ecosystem.

In AC plasma display, it is very important to quantify the wall voltage induced by the wall charge accumulated on the dielectric surface. If we know the quantities of the wall voltage in each period of every sequence; reset period, address period and sustain period, then it helps us to design the optimal driving waveform for high efficiency plasma display. We develop a new method to measure the wall voltage with VDS (Versatile Driving Simulator) system. From this method the wall voltage induced by a wall charge profiles just after the reset discharge of every cells in plasma display panel can be investigated and analyzed successfully. It is noted that the wall voltage profiles are influenced by the space charge and then they are stabilized as time goes by. It is also noted that both the remaining wall charge at the previous sequence and space charges contribute to wall voltage quantities just after the reset discharge. It is noted that the wall charges contribute dominantly after a few hundreds microseconds, while the space charges have been decayed within 100 ${\mu}s$ just after the reset discharge.

Carbon nitride films have been deposited on Si(100) substrate by a high voltage discharge plasma combined with laser ablation in a nitrogen atmosphere. The films were grown both with the without the presence of an assisting focused Nd:YAG laser ablation. The laser ablation of the graphite target leads to vapor plume plasma expending into th ambient nitrogen arc discharge area. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy were used to identify the binding structure and the content of the nitrogen species in the deposited films. The nitrogen content of the films was found to increase drastically with an increase of nitrogen pressure. The surface morphology of the films was studied using a scanning electron microscopy. Data of infrared spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicate the existence of carbon-nitrogen bonds in the films. The x-ray diffraction measurements have also been taken to characterize the crystal properties of the obtained films.

In order to study the relationship between the physical properties of glow discharge plasma and the physical behavior of TiN thin film, electrical characteristics of RF discharge plasma driven at 13.56MHz in a parallel-plate electrode system were measured. Plasma parameters, such as electron density and temperature, are also studied since they may be considered as one of the very important factors deciding the physical properties of TiN thin film under given conditions of applied biasd voltage and pressure. The TiN thin film were fabricated over a wide range of discharge conditions, and some of the general relationships between the measured plasma parameters and the properties of TiN thin film were discussed.

We report the observation of line shapes in the optogalvanic spectrum, which are different from those of absorption, for transitions origination from the $3P_2$ ($1s_5$ in Paschen notation) metastable level of argon. The OG line shapes resemble those of absorption and be used to diagnose the characteristics of the discharge plasma. The measured plasma temperatures of Ar hollow cathode discharge for several metal cathodes are about 620~780K at discharge current of 7~10mA.

On a liquid propellant PPT, the discharge processes that discharge was initiated and plasma was accelerated was observed by using a ultra high speed camera. Liquid propellant PPT is a pulsed plasma thruster using liquid as propellant. Our past study showed the successful operation of liquid propellant PPT and the thruster showed high specific impulse. However, its acceleration mechanism has not been clarified. In this study we observed the plasma acceleration processes in order to deepen our understanding of the acceleration mechanism.
