A research on several characteristics such as volume breakdown and surface discharge of insulators for a termination of power transmission class HTS cable was performed. We investigated the surface discharge of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) under air, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas media. The breakdown characteristics of these media were studied. Experimental results revealed that flashover voltage greatly depends on pressure, temperature, the kinds of insulating media and voltages, but it is slightly affected by shape and material of electrode. The breakdown voltage of liquid nitrogen, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas deeply depends on the shape and dimension of electrode, kinds of voltages and pressure. Moreover, the breakdown voltage of cryogenic nitrogen gas and flashover voltage of GFRP in the cryogenic nitrogen gas is also influenced by temperature and vapour-mist density of the gas.

In order to investigate the optimum conditions for the effective ozone formation in a dielectric barrier discharge, measurements of ozone concentration were carried out for various conditions such as the gap length, the dielectric material and the operating gas. It was found that the optimum discharge conditions differed exceedingly in the types of operating gases and dielectric materials. In dry air, dielectric material with low dielectric constant and thermal conductivity, which might contribute to the restriction of the gas temperature rise in the discharge region, proved effective in obtaining both high ozone yield and concentration. The optimum gap length was considered to be in the range of 600-800 mm. In oxygen, using a quartz glass disk as a dielectric material, the required condition to obtain the high ozone yield and concentration was expanded.

The effect of auxiliary electrode on the discharge characteristics in AC PDP with long sustain-gap was investigated. The auxiliary electrode was placed between scan and common electrode. When the pulse was applied to the auxiliary electrode during sustain period, the luminance of Ne + 13%Xe gas-mixture discharge increased and the discharge current decreased. The auxiliary pulse plays a role of improving electron excitation efficiency. When the auxiliary pulse was applied during address period, the address discharge time lag of Ne + 13%Xe gas-mixture could be reduced remarkably.

In this paper, a mercury-free flat discharge lamp with opposite electrode structure, a couple of phosphor layer and discharge vessel has been studied for LCD back-lighting. When the drive voltage conditions were set properly, a uniform discharge generates over entires emitting surface. The firing voltage was increased with increasing the discharge gas pressure. It was considered that this tendency was resulted from the decrease of mean free paths due to the increase of discharge gas pressure. The maximum luminance of 2700[cd/m2] was obtained in the green emitting FFL.

The most of faults in gas insulation of power facilities are caused by partial discharge. Therefore we simulated partial discharge and measured the radiated electromagnetic wave emitted from partial discharge in the $SF_6$ gas by biconical antenna. This paper describes time delay characteristics of radiated electromagnetic waves with distance between antenna and discharge source.

Voltage transfer curves have been used for analyzing the micro-discharge characteristics of cells in ac-PDP. This paper deals with the effect of working gas species, pressure and frequency of applied voltage on the micro-discharge characteristics. Using the mixture gases of He+Xe or He+Ne+Xe, wall voltage steeply varied compared with only He gas, and also voltage margin increased. Discharge voltage and voltage margin increased with increasing Xe percentage, and also wall voltage more steeply varied. In addition, the variation of effective wall capacitance which is significantly dependent on the discharge strength is discussed.

TPolystyrene thin films are prepared by glow discharge of sytrene monomer vapor th establish the growth mechanism of organic thin films by the plasma polymerization. As the discharge parameters, discharge current(5mA-20mA), frequency (10kHz-50kHz, 13.56MHz), gaspressure (0.2torr-1.5torr), and discharge time(2min-12min)are adopted. Plasma-polymerized filmsof styrene vapor are identified as polystyrene by IR spectra. The thickness of plasma-polymerized films increases with gas pressure, frequency and discharge current in the region of the low frequency and below the allowed gas pressure where the polymerization occurs. It is suggested that the growth mechanism can be explained by ionic reaction in d.c. and low frequency region, and by radical reaction in high frequency region.

The effect of magnetic field on NOx removal characteristics from a combustion flue gas has been experimentally investigated for a DC corona discharge reactor with a multipoint plate geometry in our Lab. Combustion flue gas removal efficiency of this type was much higher than that of the other types. In this paper, needle-plate geometry discharge system with applied magnetic field at a right angle to the electric field was made. Input power source was used negative DC. The corona discharge characteristics for this system was investigated and compared with the corona characteristics for the corona discharge system without magnetic field.

In ac discharge, emission efficiency shows an time-varying characteristics during discharge. The phenomenon is caused by the potential distribution changes during the discharge, which indicates that a specific potential distribution can contribute to a high improvement of the emission efficiency. To create an artificial environment for a potential distribution favorable to emission efficiency, we used the asymmetric electrode structure and proved the capability. Our results showed that the ratio of the area of anode to cathode became larger, the emission efficacy was greatly improved.

A glow discharge atomic absorption system for the direct analysis of conducting solid samples has been designed and constructed. An arrestor made of machinable ceramic which is a main component for confining the discharge between cathode and anode is modified to have a better stability in discharge. Discharge voltage or current, shape of arrestor, pressure, and gas flow rate can be controlled by an ADC/DAC board with a personal computer. The effect of discharge parameters such as discharge voltage, pressure, and gas flow rate on the sample loss rate, absorbance, and the surface morphology of sample by SEM has been studied to find optimum discharge conditions.
