Recently, the trend of research in hard coating is concentrate on developing the process of ionization rate under low operating pressure, to get the thin film with high adhesion and dense microstructures. In this study ionization rate enhancement type PVD process using permanent magnet is developed, which enhances the ionization rate by confining the plasma suppressing the wall loss of electron. By the result to investigate the characteristic of glow discharge, the ionization rate of this process is enhanced about twice as high as that of triod BARE process (about 26%), and more dense TiN microstructures are obtained in this process. Cylindrical ion energy analyzer is made and attached in front of a quadrupole mass filter for the analysis of the energy distribution of reactive gas and activated gas ions from the plasma zone. To analyze the operation mechanism of ion energy analyzer, computer simulation is performed by calculation the electric field environment using finite element method. By these analyses of ion energy distribution of outcoming ions from the plasma zone, it is found that magnetic field enhances ion kinetic energy as well as ionization rate. The other results of this study is that the foundation of feed-back system is constructed, which automatically control the partial pressure of reactive gas. In can be possible by recording the data of mass spectrum and ion energy analysis using A-D converter.

An Area Radiation Monitoring System (ARMS) ionization chamber, which had an 11.8 L active volume, was fabricated and performance-tested at KAERI. Low leakage currents, linearities at low and high dose rates were achieved from performance tests. The correlation coefficients between the ionization currents and the dose rates are 1 at high dose rate and 0.99 at low dose rate. In this study, an integration-type ARMS ionization chamber was tested over a year for an evaluation of its long-term stability at a radioisotope (RI) repository of the Young-gwang nuclear power plant. The standard deviation of dose rate of 1 day data and over a 100-days mean value were 6.2 $\mu$R/h and 2.9 $\mu$R/h, respectively. The fabricated ARMS ionization chamber showed stable performance from the results of the long-term tests. Design and performance characteristics of the fabricated ionization chamber for the ARMS from performance-tests are also addressed.

디바이스 효율에 커다란 영향을 미치고 있는 임팩트이온화현상의 정확한 모델이 디바이스 시뮬레이션에 필수적인 요소가 되고 있다. 최근에는 정확한 GaAs 임팩트이온화 모델을 위해 각 에너지 범위에 파라서 7.8과 5.6의 지수를 갖는 수정된 Keldysh 공식이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 이 모델 또한 임팩트이온화의 방향성을 무시한 등방성 모델로서 저에너지에서 이방성을 보이는 임팩트이온화모델로서는 부적합하다. 임팩트이온화율은 낮은 전자에너지에서는 강한 이방성 성질을 나타내는 반면에, 임팩트이온화현상이 자주 발생하는 높은 에너지 범위에서는 등방성이 된다. 임팩트이온화율을 계산하기 위하여 Fermi 황금법칙과 의사 포텐셜방법에 의하여 계산된 full 에너지 밴드구조를 사용하였다. Form factor 및 실험값을 비교하였으며, 방향에 따른 전도대의 에너지 밴드 구조를 <100>, <110>, <111>의 방향에 대하여 조사하였다. 결과적으로, 임팩트이온화의 문턱에너지가 이방성을 갖음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 상대적으로 낮은 에너지 즉, 문턱에너지 근처에서 임팩트이온화율이 더욱 심하게 변화함을 알 수 있다.

임팩트이온화현상은 소자의 크기가 점점 작아지면서, 높은 에너지에 있는 hot carrier 전송 을 해석하기 위해 매우 중요하므로 소자의 시뮬레이션에 정확한 임팩트이온화모델이 필수적이다. 털 연구에서는 의사포텐셜방법을 사용하여 풀밴드모델을 구하고, 임팩트이온화율은 수정된 Keldysh 공식을 이용하여 유도하였다. 본 연구에서는 Gahs 임팩트이은화의 온도의존특성을 조사하기 위하여 Monte Carlo 시뮬레이터를 제작하여 임팩트이온화계수를 구하였다. 결과적으로, 임팩트이온화계수는 300K에서 실험값과 잘 일치하였다. 또한 에너지는 전계가 증가할수록 증가하고, 높은 온도에서는 포논 산란의 emission mode가 높기 때문에 에너지가 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 임팩트이온화의 대수 fitting 함수 식은 온도와 전계에 대해 2차식으로 표현하였다. 대수 fitting 함수의 오차는 대부분 5%이내에 머물렀다. 그러므로 대수식으로 표현된 임팩트 이온화계수는 온도에 의존함을 알았고, 임팩트이온화계수를 구하는데 시간을 절약할 수 있다.

Destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) of $SF_6$ was tested with varying degrees of ionization and initial concentrations of $SF_6$. The applied dose of ionization energy varied from 0 to 400 kGy. The initial concentration of $SF_6$ gas also varied from 1,000 ppm to 2,500 ppm. In order to assess the effect of a residence time on DRE (Destruction and Removal Efficiency, %), experiments were also conducted at different irradiation times of 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 sec, respectively. The DRE of $SF_6$ increased with an increasing amount of dose and current. Regardless of initial concentration of $SF_6$, 90% level of DRE was achieved by applying over 10 mA of electrical current.

Impact ionization model in GaAs has been presented by modified keldysh formula with two sets of power exponent of 7.8 and 5.6 in study. Impact ionization rate is derived from fermil's golden rule and ful lenergy band stucture based on empirical pseudopotential method. Impact ionization rates show anisotropic property in low energy region (<3eV), but isotropic in high energy region (3>eV). Full band monte calo simulator is coded for investigating the validity of the GaAs impact ionization model, and validity is checked by comparing impact ionization coefficients with experimental values and ones in anisotropic model. Valley transitions to energy alteration are explained by investigating electron motion in brillouin zone for full band model to electric field variation.

An ionization chamber is still widely used in many fields by virtue of its' simple operational characteristics and the possibility of its' various shapes. A parallel type of an ionization chamber for a steel sheet thickness measurement was designed and fabricated. High pure xenon gas, which was pressurized up to 6 atm, was chosen as a filling gas to increase the current response and sensitivity for a radiation. A high pressure gas system was also constructed. The active volume and the incident window size of the fabricated ionization chamber were $30\;cm^3\;and\;12\;cm^2$, respectively. Preliminary tests with a 25 mCi $^{241}Am$ gamma-ray source and evaluation tests in a standard X-ray field were performed. The optimal operation voltage was set from the results of the collection efficiency calculation by using an experimental two-voltage method. Linearity for a variation of the steel sheet thickness, which is the most important factor for an application during a steel sheet thickness measurement, was 0.989 in this study.

The laser ablation/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry is applied to the isotopic analysis of solid samples using a home-made instrument. The technique is convenient for solid sample analysis due to the onestep process of vaporization and ionization of the samples. The analyzed samples were lead, cadmium, molybdenum, and ytterbium. To optimize the analytical conditions of the technique, several parameters, such as laser energy, laser wavelength, size of the laser beam on the samples surface, and high voltages applied on the ion source electrodes were varied. Low energy of laser light was necessary to obtain the optimal mass resolution of spectra. The 532 nm light generated mass spectra with the higher signal-to-noise ratio compared with the 355 nm light. The best mass resolution obtained in the present study is ~1,500 for the ytterbium.

When high surge voltage invaded into the ground rod contacted with ground water, the ionization phenomena are happened in the water. Although some researchers have surveyed the ionization phenomena in soil, they have just analyzed the variation of the ground resistance. The most important role of the ground rod is to elect human beings from potential rise and to dissipate energy to the earth safely. In this wort we presented the method evaluating the potential reduction and energy dispersion. Also we analyzed theses factors as a function of charging voltages at the water resistivity of $50\;{\Omega}{\cdot}m$ using the Matlab Program. As a result the ground rod potential was reduced to 38 kV by ionization just below breakdown voltage. The energy more than half of the total injected energy was dispersed through the grounding electrode caused due to ionization.
