The RF inductive discharge of inductively couples plasma (ICP) continues to attract growing attention as an effective plasma source in many industrial applications, the best known of which are plasma processing and lighting technology. Although most practical ICPs operate at 13.56 [MHz] and 2.65 [MHz], the trend to reduce the operating frequency is clearly recognizable from recent ICP developments. in and electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the use of a lower operating frequency simplifies and reduces cost of RF matching systems and RF generators and can eliminate capacitive coupling between the inductor coil and plasma, which could be a strong factor in wall erosion and plasma contamination. In this study, electric and optical characteristics of electrodeless fluorescent lamp by changing ferrite position is discussed.

Ring-shaped electrodeless fluorescent lamp is removed the internal electrodes and heating filaments that are a light-limiting factor of conventional fluorescent lamps. The ring-shaped electrodeless lamp is intended as a high efficacy replacement for the incandescent reflector lamp in many applications. In this paper, maxwell 3D finite element analysis program (Ansoft) was used to obtain electromagnetic properties associated with the coil and nearby structures. The electromagnetic emitting properties were presented by 3D simulation software operated at 250[㎑]and some specific conditions. The optical measurement measured luminance and a temperature and an optical spectrum distribution for 10 minutes in a one minute interval at the same time.

Glass forming technology is used to form channels of external electrode flat fluorescent lamps (FFL). The efficiency of FFL depends on the number and the length of the channels. Five FFLs with same size ($300\;mm{\times}80\;mm$), different channel number, and different channel length were fabricated. The electrical and optical characteristics of 5 FFLs were evaluated. It was found that the FFL with one channel with its channel length of 1,110 mm and channel width of 7 mm corner width was shown to have the highest efficiency at room temperature operation.

Rosen type piezoelectric transformer for LCD backlight operated at high voltage and low current, may not be sucessfully used for illuminating general fluorescent lamps because low voltage and high current are required. In this study, the piezoelectric transformer with width vibration mode operated at low voyage and high current was designed for the application of fluorescent lasso ballast. The step-up ratio and efficiency as a function of the load resistance in the piezoelectric transformer indicated that the transformer can be effectively used for the electronic ballast for low profile fluorescent lamp.

Recently, the RF inductive discharge or inductively coupled plasma continues to attract growing attention as an effective plasma source in many industrial applications, the best known of which are plasma processing and lighting technology. To the point of lighting sources, the ring-shaped electrodeless fluorescent lamps utilizing an inductively coupled plasma have been objects of interest and research during the last decades, mainly because of their potential for extremely long life, high lamp efficacies, rapid power switching response. In this paper, maxwell 3D finite element analysis program (Ansoft) was used to obtain electromagnetic properties associated with the coil and nearby structures. The electromagnetic emitting properties were presented by 3D simulation software operated at 250 kHz and some specific conditions. The electromagnetic field in the ferrite core was shown to be high and symmetric. An LS-100 luminance meter and a Darsa-2000 spectrum analyzer were used in the experiment. According to data on the lamp tested using high magnetic field ferrite, the optical and thermal wave fields were shown to be high around the ring-shaped electrodeless fluorescent lamp. The optical or light field was high at the center of the bulb rather than around the ferrite core. The light conditions of the bulb were assumed to be complex, depending on the condition of the filler gas, the volume of the bulb, and the frequency of the inverter. Our results have shown coupling between the gas plasma and the field of the light emitted to be nonlinear.

An external electrode fluorescent lamps (EEFLs) have the advantage of a long lifetime in the early stages of the study on plasma discharge, interest in the lamp continues. Studies on the operation of external electrode fluorescent lamps have focused mainly on its use of a type of high frequency (MHz). By performing high brightness using a square wave operation method with the low frequency below 100kHz, which is applied to a narrowed tube type lamp that has several mm of lamp diameter. To solve these problems of CCFL, EEFL (External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) is introduced. Because electrode of EEFL is on the outer surface of discharge tube, the electrode is perfectly prevented from the sputtering by accelerated ions. And it is possible to drive the many CCFLs at the same time, because EEFL shows the positively resistant characteristic. But EEFL has the large non-radiative power loss in sheath. In this study the novel electrode structure was introduced in order to reduce non-radiative power loss in sheath of EEFL. The novel electrode structure comes from the idea to combine conceptually capacitive discharge with inductive discharge. Thus, this study verifies the change in the optical characteristics according to the change in electrode structure through a Maxwell's electromagnetic field simulation and examines the relationship between the change in the EEFL electrode structure and brightness by measuring the optical characteristics.

슬립램프의 응용은 소형으로 디자인되는 원리를 이행하므로 작은 사이즈의 전자식 안정기가 요구된다 하지만 기존의 $50{\sim}60Hz$에서 동작되는 자기석 안정기들은 현저한 플리커(깜빡거림) 현상, 높은 손실, 큰 파고율 그리고 무거운 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위해서 35W급(T5급) 형광등을 동작시키기 위한 제안된 새로운 타입으로 구성된 전자식 안정기로 정류기, 역률개선, 직렬 공진 하프 브리지 인버터 그리고 압전 변압기를 구성한 시스템을 제안하였다. 이 같은 압전 변압기를 이용한 전자식 안정기 구성으로 35급(T5급) 형광등을 성공적으로 동작시킬 수 있었다. 제안된 전자식 안정기를 약 $75{\sim}79kHz$의 주파수로 구동 시켜서 실험한 결과 25분 구동 후에 형광램프는 시스템 전체 안정기의 역률과 효율은 각각 0.95, 0.86%의 양호한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

LED는 일반 백열등에 비해 훨씬 밝으면서도 저전력이라는 장점을 지니고 있다. 이에 기존 형광등이 지니는 효율적, 환경적 문제점을 개선하기 위해 LED형광등의 개발과 상용화가 이루어 졌다. LED는 형광등과 달리 극성을 지니는 단방향성 소자로 교류전원을 직접 쓸 수 없기 때문에 전원공급장치를 필요로 한다. 이 전원공급장치는 부피가 크고 가격이 비싸기 때문에 유지비용면에서 일반 형광등에 비해 기능성이 떨어진다. 본 연구에서는 이 전원공급장치를 대신하여 간략하게 AC전원을 정류하고, 전압변동에 따른 전류변화로 인한 빛의 밝기가 변하는 현상을 없애기 위해 정전류로 제어할 수 있는 회로를 구성하고 이를 LED모듈과 구분하여 Plug in/out 방식의 교체형 모듈로 구성하여 유지보수에 있어 저렴하고 손쉬운 교체가 가능한 소자개발방법을 제안하고자 한다.

요즘, LCD TV 가 등장하면서 LCD 백라이트로써 LCD TV 에 적용하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 휘도특성의 개선이 요구되고 있다. TV 대응 LCD Panel 은 Monitor 대응 제품에 비해서 일반적으로 해상도가 낮으므로, 투과율면에서 장점은 있으나, 현재의 백라이트 구조로는 만족할만한 성능을 낼 수 없는 상황이다. 그러므로 고휘도 백라이트를 위해서 EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) 혹은 CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) 의 복수 사용을 전제로 한 직하방식에 대한 개발 검토가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 직하방식에 의한 고휘도화는 램프수는 증가되지만 프리즘시트를 사용하지 않아서 가격 경쟁력이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 EEFL 16등을 이용하여 17인치 직하형 백라이트를 제작하여 기구적, 전기적, 광학적 특성을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 11,700 nit 의 휘도를 달성하여 TV 대응 수준을 확보하였다.
