The effect of hydrogen and oxygen plasma treatments on the structural properties of carbon nanotube(CNT) has been systematically investigated. As the plasma power was increased, nano particles were appeared at the surface of CNTs. At high plasma power(300 Watt), the structure of CNT was changed from nanotube type to nano particles. However, in case of hydrogen plasma treatment, there was no change in microstructure of CNT. From the Raman analysis, the crystallinity of CNT was deteriorated by the plasma treatment, regardless of gas types.

The objective of this study is to give PP(polypropylene) fabric a good affinity for water. Oxygen plasma was treated to PP fabrics in a commercial glow discharge reactor with different RF power, discharge pressure, and reaction time. The PP fiber surfaces were characterized by the measurement of contact angle and ESCA. A JEOL scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface morphology of fibers. The spontaneous water uptake amount of PP fabrics was determined by the demand wettability test. To determine the effect of aging on the surface properties of $O_2$ plasma treated PP, all the above measurements of the samples were carried out after 1, 7, 30, 60, and 150 days. The results are as follows. The PP fiber surfaces treated by $O_2$ plasma treatment have a chemical composition that consisted of various oxygen containing polar groups. Consequently, the contact angles of the treated PP fibers decreased, which improved the water uptake rate of PP fabrics. Surface roughness of the treated PP affected the fabric wettabiity as well. Wettability of the treated PP decreased and leveled off with aging. The $O_2$ plasma treatment is a simple and effective method to increase the water uptake rate of PP fabrics.

On the purpose of surface modifications of polypropylene meltblown(PPMB) nonwovens, PPMB nonwovens were treated in the plasma system by oxygen atmosphere with different treatment time and discharge power. Dimensional change and physical properties of the treated nonwovens were evaluated. Contact angles onto PPMB nonwovens about water and methyleneiodide were measured and surface energies were calculated by Owen's method. As the results, microcraters were observed on the surface of treated nonwovens. Tenacity and breaking strain of PPMB nonwovens decreased with increasing treatment time and discharge power. Surface energy of PPMB nonwovens increased by plasma treatment. Meanwhile, the friction static voltage and dyeability of PPMB nonwovens have enhanced to some extent by oxygen plasma treatment due to the improvement of surface hydrophilicity.

The effects of oxygen plasma treatments at different discharge power, reaction pressure, treatment time on yellowing of polyester fabrics were studied. Surface characteristics of the treated fabrics were also investigated by means of SEM and ESCA. The results were as follows : The yellowing of fabrics increases as the power and the treatment time are increased, and decreases as the pressure is increased. The plasma treatment of 100 Watt, 200 mTorr, 5 min. is the optimal condition which is most effective in holding whiteness as well as high weight loss of fabrics.

The effect of hydrogen and oxygen plasma treatments on the structural properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has been systematically investigated. The plasma treatment resulted in the removal of the amorphous carbon particles. As the plasma treatment time was longer, the CNT diameter was reduced, regardless of gas types. Especially, for the sample treated in hydrogen plasma, the catalyst metal on the tip of CNTs was eliminated.

In this work, the effects of atmospheric oxygen plasma treatment of carbon fibers on mechanical interfacial properties of carbon fibers-reinforced epoxy matrix composites was studied. The surface properties of the carbon fibers were determined by acid/base values, Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses. Also, the crack resistance properties of the composites were investigated in critical stress intensity factor ($K_{IC}$), and critical strain energy release rate mode II ($G_{IIC}$) measurements. As experimental results, FT-IR of the carbon fibers showed that the carboxyl/ester groups (C=O) at 1632 $cm^{-1}$ and hydroxyl group (O-H) at 3450 $cm^{-1}$ were observed for the plasma treated carbon fibers, and the treated carbon fibers had the higher O-H peak intensity than that of the untreated ones. The XPS results also indicated that the $O_{1S}/C_{1S}$ ratio of the carbon fiber surfaces treated by the oxygen plasma led to development of oxygen-containing functional groups. The mechanical interfacial properties of the composites, including $K_{IC}$ (critical stress intensity factor) and $G_{IIC}$ (critical strain energy release rate mode II), were also improved for the oxygen plasma-treated carbon fibersreinforced composites. These results could be explained that the oxygen plasma treatment played an important role to increase interfacial adhesions between carbon fibers and epoxy matrix resins in our composite system.

아르곤과 산소 대기압 플라즈마를 이용한 미생물인 E. coli의 살균효과를 분석하였다. 유전체 격막 방전 형태의 플라즈마 반응기는 아르곤과 산소 혼합기체에서 균일한 플라즈마 방전과 오존 생성에 효과적이었다. 직접적인 대기압 플라즈마 조사에 따른 E. coli의 살균처리 공정에서 산소에 대한 혼합비와 인가전력의 증가는 방전기체의 오존 발생농도를 높여 미생물의 살균효과를 증가시켰다. 반응기와 시료와의 거리는 살균효과를 증가하기 위하여 가급적 작게 하는 것이 효율적이었다. 본 연구를 통하여 대기압 플라즈마는 오존과 같은 산화촉진제의 발생으로 저온에서 E. coli와 같은 미생물을 효과적으로 살균할 수 있어 기존의 살균법을 대체 할 수 있는 차세대 살균기술로서의 개발 가능성을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Red color light emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated using CdSe/CdZnS quantum dots (QDs). During the device fabrication process, oxygen plasma treatment on the ITO surface was performed to improve the interfacial contact between ITO anode and the hole injection layer. CdSe/CdZnS quantum dots were cross-linked to remove their surrounded organic surfactants. The device shows red emission at 622 nm, which is consistent with the dimension of the QDs (band gap=1.99 eV). The luminance shows 6026% improvement compared with that of LEDs fabricated without oxygen plasma treatment and quantum dots cross-linking process. This approach would be useful for the fabrication of high-performance QLEDs with ITO electrode and PEDOT:PSS hole injection layers.

We investigated the electrical and structural properties of chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown graphene and post treated by O2 plasma. For the patterning of graphene, the plasma technology is generally used and essential for etching of graphene. But, the cautious O2 plasma treatments are required to avoid the damage in graphene edge which can be the harmful effects on the device performance. To analyze the effects of plasma treatment on structural properties of graphene, the change of surface morphology of graphene are measured by scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope before and after plasma treatment. In addition, the binding energy of carbon and oxygen are measured through to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. After plasma treatment, the severe changes of surface morphology and binding energy of carbon and oxygen were observed which effects on the change of sheet resistance. Finally, to analyze of graphene characteristics, we measured the Raman spectroscopy. The measured results showed that the plasma treatment makes the upward of D-peak and downward of G'-peak by elevated power of plasma.

산소 플라즈마 처리에 따른 활성탄소의 산소 관능기 도입이 세슘 이온 흡착 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 산소 플라즈마 처리 시 주파수, 전력 및 산소 가스 유량은 각각 100 kHz, 80 W 및 60 sccm으로 고정하였으며, 반응시간을 변수로 수행하였다. 본 실험조건에서는 산소 가스와의 반응시간이 10분일 때 C-O-C 및 O=C-O 결합 내 산소 기능기 함량이 증가함에 따라 세슘 이온 흡착량이 증가하였다. 그러나 반응 시간이 15분일 때 산소 관능기 함량이 감소하게 되어 세슘 이온 흡착량이 오히려 감소되었다. 한편, 표면 처리된 활성탄소의 산소 함량과는 달리 그 비표면적 및 기공 특성은 산소 플라즈마 반응 시간에 따라 거의 영향을 받지 않았다. 결과적으로 산소 플라즈마 처리된 활성탄소는 미처리 활성탄소에 비하여 세슘 이온 제거율이 최대 97.3%까지 향상되었다. 이는 산소 플라즈마 처리로 활성탄소 표면에 도입된 C-O-C 및 O=C-O 결합 내 산소 기능기의 함량에 기인한 것으로 판단된다.
