In this study, waffle type barrier ribs for counter electrode discharge cells were prepared via micro-molding process. The master mold was prepared by UV lithography and working mold was manufactured by replicating the master mold. The UV paste used in this study consisted of ceramic powders for the barrier ribs, binder, hardener, and dispersant was filled into cavities of a polymeric mold by action of capillary pressure developed between mold and paste. The results demonstrated a possibility of one-step process for the manufacturing of waffle type barrier ribs embedded with sustaining electrodes.

Plasma Display Panel is a display device emitting fluorescent light from gas discharge between a front and a rear panel sealed together. Front and rear panel have multitude of film layers and barrier ribs in the rear panel has the largest area so releasing various gases and affecting light emitting characteristics and lifetime. The remaining gases in a barrier rib were studied by thermal desorption analysis up to $400^{\circ}C$ and main gases were $H_2$ $H_2$O, CO. During sustaining at $300^{\circ}C$, the outgassing rates from other gases were decreased but$ H_2$ kept constantly increasing until 1 hour, which can be originated from the dissociation of organics remained in the inside of barrier rib material. In $H_2$O, two distinct peaks were observed: desorption from physically adsorbed one at $l00^{\circ}C$ and from chemically adsorbed one $400^{\circ}C$. The result can be utilized in interpretation of electronic and optical characteristics and evacuation process control of PDP

Using ray-optics code incorporated with three-dimensional PDP cell simulation, we have analysed the energy flow in the PDP cell from the electric power input to the visible light output. Also, the visible light output profile and viewing angle distribution were obtained. We applied our code to the analysis of the barrier rib height effect on the visible light luminance and efficiency of the sustaining discharge. Although cells with higher barrier rib generate more VUV photons, less ratio of visible photons are emitted toward front panel due to the shadow effect. Thus, there exists optimal barrier rib height giving the highest visible luminance and efficiency. This kind of code can be a powerful tool in designing cell geometry.

We have investigated the characteristic analysis of ultrasonic in case of occurring partial discharge in experimental steel chamber. This study presents the discriminative method of partial discharge by optimum threshold value. We have carried out the experiments of measuring partial discharge numbers between ultrasonic sensor and transducer with changing distance and barrier inside steel chamber. After the measured data were trasformed A/D conversion by GPIB, we used the optimum method of threshold value for counting numbers of partial discharge.

In this study, plasma display panels with three different cell volumes were prepared by changing the spaces between the vertical barrier ribs into two and three times the reference structure. The discharge gap and area of the segmented ITO electrode were the same for the three cases, and Ne.20%Xe gas was used. The luminance and luminance efficiency were measured using applied voltage variations. The time evolution and intensity distribution of the infrared, which are related to the vacuum ultraviolet, were observed via intensified, charged, coupled device, and the visible-light intensity profiles were observed using PR-900 to analyze the discharge phenomena in the discharge cell.

본 논문은 대기압 환경에서 발생하는 유전체 장벽 방전(dielectric barrier discharge: DBD) 플라즈마의 전자파 산란 특성을 측정하였다. 본 논문에서는 기본적인 DBD 플라즈마 발생기 구조를 병렬로 연결하여 넓은 면적의 플라즈마 발생기를 제작하였고, 14 kV, 4 kHz의 고전압 발생장치를 이용해 플라즈마가 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. 두 개의 혼 안테나와 벡터 네트워크 분석기를 이용해 S-parameter의 비교를 통해 전자파 산란 특성을 측정하였다. 전방 산란의 경우 제작된 플라즈마 발생기의 구조적 특성으로 인해 안테나의 편파에 따라 다른 결과 값을 얻었다. 편파가 수평일 때 최대 2 dB의 산란파 감쇠 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 편파가 수평일 경우, 플라즈마 발생기 뒤에 PEC를 설치한 후 후방 산란 특성을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 5 GHz에서 안테나 관찰 각도가 $40^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$일 때 최대 2 dB 산란파 감쇠 특성을 얻었다.

본 논문은 유체 역학적 관점에서 플라즈마 모델링을 통하여 전자 밀도를 계산하는 방식을 제안하였다. 그럼으로써 기존 논문들에서 사용된 단순화된 플라즈마 모델링의 한계를 극복하였다. 계산된 전자 밀도를 finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) 기법에 기반한 맥스웰-볼츠만 시스템에 연계하여 다양한 각도에서 입사하는 전자기파에 대한 산란파 계산을 수행하였다. 전반부에서는 유전체 장벽 방전(dielectric barrier discharge: DBD) 구조에서 발생되는 플라즈마를 모델링하였다. 다수의 모델링 방식 중, 시간 독립적인 변수를 도입하여 정지계의 전위 분포와 전자 밀도 분포를 계산하는 Suzen-Huang 모델을 이용하였다. 후반부에서는 변조된 가우시안 펄스를 플라즈마에 입사시켜 발생하는 산란파를 FDTD 기법을 이용하여 계산하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 레이더 단면적(radar cross section: RCS)을 관찰하였다. 모의실험 결과, DBD 플라즈마에 의해 1~2 dB 감소하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이는 기존의 논문에서 알려진 RCS 측정 결과와 유사한 양상을 보이며, 본 논문에서 제안한 모델링의 유효성을 확인하였다.

In this study, using the surface dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) produced at atmospheric pressure to improve the physiological activities of quercetin was investigated. Quercetin (at 200 ppm) was treated using air DBD with an input power of 250 W. The tyrosinase inhibition effect and total phenolic content of quercetin increased from 38.96 to 91.58% and from 134.53 to 152.93 ppm, respectively, after 20 min of plasma treatment. The antioxidant activity of quercetin treated for 20 min in the lipid models was higher than that of quercetin treated for 0, 5, and 10 min. Furthermore, plasma-treated quercetin exhibited antimicrobial activity against Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Staphylococcus aureus, whereas activity was not shown in the control. Structural modifications of the quercetin molecule induced by plasma might be responsible for the improvements in its physiological activity. These results indicate that DBD plasma could be used to enhance the physiological activity of quercetin for various applications in food.

Many chemically active species such as ${\cdot}H$, ${\cdot}OH$, $O_3$, $H_2O_2$, hydrated $e^-$, as well as ultraviolet rays, are produced by Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) plasma in water and are widely use to remove non-biodegradable materials and deactivate microorganisms. As the plasma gas containing chemically active species that is generated from the plasma reaction has a short lifetime and low solubility in water, increasing the dissolution rate of this gas is an important challenge. To this end, the plasma gas and water within reactor were mixed using the air-automizing nozzle, and then, water-gas mixture was injected into water. The dissolving effect of plasma gas was indirectly confirmed by measuring the RNO (N-Dimethyl-4-nitrosoaniline, indicator of the formation of OH radical) solution. The plasma system consisted of an oxygen generator, a high-voltage power supply, a plasma generator and a liquid-gas mixing reactor. Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of location of air-automizing nozzle, flow rate of plasma gas, water circulation rate, and high-voltage on RNO degradation. The experimental results showed that the RNO removal efficiency of the air-automizing nozzle is 29.8% higher than the conventional diffuser. The nozzle position from water surface was not considered to be a major factor in the design and operation of the plasma reactor. The plasma gas flow rate and water circulation rate with the highest RNO removal rate were 3.5 L/min and 1.5 L/min, respectively. The ratio of the plasma gas flow rate to the water circulation rate for obtaining an RNO removal rate of over 95% was 1.67 ~ 4.00.

Dermatophytes can invade in keratinized tissues and cause dermatophytosis [1] that rank among the most widespread and common infectious diseases world-wide. Although several systemically and topically administered drugs with activities against these fungi are available, still complete eradication of some of these infections, is difficult and relapses and remissions are often observed [2,3]. In addition, some people are allergic to many of the available drugs which add complications even more. Therefore, the search for novel, selective and more effective therapy is always required and it may help the clinicians to choose the correct treatment for their patients. Non-thermal plasmas primarily generate reactive species and recently have emerged as an efficient tool for medical applications including sterilization. In this study, we evaluated the ability of non-thermal dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma for the inactivation of clinical isolates of Trichophyton genera, Trichophyton mentagrophytes (T. mentagrophytes) and Trichophyton rubrum (T. rubrum), which cause infections of nails and skin and, are two of the most frequently isolated dermatophytes [4]. Our results showed that DBD plasma has considerable time dependent inactivation potential on both T. mentagrophytes and T. rubrum in-vitro. Furthermore, the mechanisms for plasma based T. mentagrophytes and T. rubrum inactivation and planning for in-vivo future studies will be discussed.
