This paper describes the information for quantitative simulation of weakly ionized plasma. In previous paper, we calculated the electron transport coefficients by using two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. But there is difference between the result of the two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation and experiments in pure CF$_4$ molecular gas and in CF$_4$+Ar gas mixture. Therefore, In this paper, we calculated the electron drift velocity (W) in pure CF$_4$ molecular gas and CF$_4$+Ar gas mixture (1 %, 5 %, 10 %) for range of E/N values from 0.17～300 Td at the temperature was 300 K and pressure was 1 Torr by multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation by Robson and Ness. The results of two-term and multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation have been compared with each other for a range of E/N.

This paper describes the information for quantitative simulation of weakly ionized plasma. In previous paper, we calculated the electron transport coefficients in $CF_4+Ar$ gas mixture by using two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. but there is difference between the result of the two-term and the multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation in $CF_4$ gas. Therefore, in this paper, we calculated the electron drift velocity (W) in $CF_4+Ar$ gas mixture for range of E/N values from $0.01\sim500[Td}$ at the temperature was 300[K] and pressure was 1[Torr] by multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation by Robson and Ness. The results of two-term and multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation has been compared with each other for a range of E/N.

We investigated the experimental method that uses the homogeneous precipitation method to prepare mica flakes-coated rutile-type titania pearlescent pigment with urea as a precipitant. $TiO_2$ particles exhibit a high reflection of lights and optical properties with chemical stabilities, so they are appropriate for coating on luminescent pigments (mica). The coating principle of mi ca coated titania with various thicknesses was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and tested by spectrophotometer. Mica with a particle size in the range of $40-60{\mu}m$ was suspended in water, and metal sulphates and urea were added to the mixture, which was heated to boiling. The change in pH was continuously followed. The metal oxide and crystal structure were affected by the conditions of $TiOSO_4$ concentration and reaction time with a sintering temperature the range of $800-1100^{\circ}C$.

In general, the patients of the head and neck cancer are treated with 4MV photon beam up to prescribed dose, but spinal cord should be excluded in the treatment field. When its absorbed dose is limited at the tolerance dose. In case of the patients who has the positive posterior neck nodes need a boost electron beam treatment to the prescribed dose. In that case, the anatomical structure of the neck and the physical structure of the standard electron cone interrupt to allow proper access to the disease site. Therefore, we extended treatment SSD for the remove of the those hindrances. In this study, we evaluated the dosimetric variation of the standard electron cone for the extended SSD, from 100cm to 120cm, 5 cm increment, and compare to the custom-made electron cone. As a result, the $\%$ depth dose, the point of maximum dose and the range of maximum were changed within the $2\%$. The penumbra width was increased from 1.0cm to 2.0cm. However, the dosimetric characteristics of the custom-made electron cone was very similar to that of the 100cm SSD standard electron cone and due to its characteristic of physical structure, patients didn't need re-positioning after photon beam treatment, therefore accurate treatment was possible, we conclude that the custom-made electron cone was very useful for the clinical practice.

Field electron emission measurements were performed on dielectric-coated tungsten emitters, with apex radii in the nanometer and micrometer range, which were prepared by electrochemical etching in NaOH solution. Measurements were performed in a field electron microscopy (FEM) with a base pressure <$10^{-6}$ Pascal ($10^{-8}$ mbar). Four different types of dielectric were used, namely: (1) Clark Electromedical Instruments epoxylite resin, (2) Epidian 6 produced by Ciech Sarzyna S. A., (3) a Radionox solution of colloidal graphite; and (4) Molyslip 2001 E compound ($MoS_2$ and MoS). Current-voltage measurements and FEM images were used to investigate the characteristics of these composite emitters, and to assess how the different types of dielectric coating affect the suitability of the composite emitter as a potential electron source.

Energy distribution function for electrons in $SF_6$-Ar mixtures gas used by MCS-BEq algorithm has been analysed over the E/N range $30\sim300$[Td] by a two term Boltzmann equation and by a Monte Carlo Simulation using a set of electron cross sections determined by other authors, experimentally the electron swarm parameters for 0.2[%] and 0.5[%] $SF_6$-Ar mixtures were measured by time-of-flight(TOF) method. The results show that the deduced electron drift velocities, the electron ionization or attachment coefficients, longitudinal and transverse diffusion coefficients and mean energy agree reasonably well with theoretical for a rang of E/N values. The transport coefficients for electrons in (0.2[%])$SF_6$-Ar and (0.5[%]$SF_6$ - Ar mixtures were measured by time-of-flight method, and the electron energy distribution function and the parameters of the velocity and the diffusion were determined by the variation of the collision cross-sections with energy. The results obtained from Boltzmann equation method and Monte Carlo simulation have been compared with present and previously obtained data and respective set of electron collision cross sections of the molecules.

We proposed a new measurement method of cutoff probe using the reactance spectrum of the plasma in cutoff probe system instead of transmission spectrum. The high accurate reactance spectrum of the plasma which is expected in previous circuit simulation of cutoff probe [1] was measured by using the automatic port extension method of the network analyzer. The measured reactance spectrum is good agreement with E/M wave simulation result (CST Microwave Studio). From the analysis of the measured reactance spectrum based on the circuit modeling, not only the electron density but also electron-neutral collision frequency can be simply obtained. The obtained results of electron density and e-n collision frequency were presented and discussed in wide range of experimental conditions, together with comparison result with previous methods (a previous cutoff probe using transmission spectrum and a single langmuir probe).

In particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation studies related to ion-ion two-stream instability, a reduced ion-to-electron mass ratio is often employed to save computation time. But it was not clearly verified how electrons dynamics are coupled with the slower evolution of ion-ion interactions under the external electric field. We have studied the ion beam driven instability using a 1D electrostatic PIC code by comparing different rescaling of parameter with real ion mass from the reference simulation with reduced ion mass. As the external electric field is stronger, the excited unstable mode range was more sensitively affected by the system size with the real mass ratio than the reduced ion mass. The results show that the reduced mass ratio should be used cautiously in PIC code as the electron dynamics can modify the ion instabilities. Additionally we found the formation of electron flat-top distribution in the final saturation stage. Simulation results show that in the early phase electrostatic solitary waves are quasi-periodically formed, but later they are fully dissipated resulting in heated, flat-top distributions. New electron beam components are occasionally formed. These are a consequence of the interaction with solitary wave structures. We parametrically investigate the development of electron phase space distributions for various drift speeds of ion beams and temperature ratios between ions and electrons

An accurate cross sections set is necessary for the quantitatively understanding and modeling of plasma phenomena. By using the electron swarm method, we determine an accurate electron cross sections set for objective atoms or molecule at low electron energy range. It is general calculation that used in this method to an two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. But it may give erroneous transport coefficients for CF$_4$ molecule treated in this paper having \`C2v symmetry\`, therefore, multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis which can consider anisotropic scattering exactly is carried out. It is necessary to require understanding of the fundamental principle of analysis method. Therefore, in this paper, we compared the electron transport coefficients(W and ND$\_$L/) in pure Ar, O$_2$, and CF$_4$ gas calculated by using two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis code uses the algorithm proposed by Tagashira et al. with those by multi-term approximation by Rubson and Ness which was developed at James-Cook university, and discussed an application and/or validity of the calculation method by comparing these calculated results.

Kenaf (Hibiscuc cannabinus L.) is a renewable resource for industry and kenaf lignin is syringyl-guaiacyl lignin. The electron beam irradiated on kenaf core various doses range from 200 to 1,000 kGy to improve delignification. The yield of lignin, which is 2.53 g from 10 g of electron beam irradiated kenaf core. A comparison extracted lignin between from native kenaf core and electron beam irradiated kenaf core was then studied through chemical structure and bonding property by a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Thermal stability of the extracted-purified lignin was performed via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). These results were explained that electron beam irradiation increased performance of extracting efficiency.
