A new advanced combined PVD/CVD technique of DLC film deposition has been developed. Deposition of a DLC film was carried out using a pulsed carbon arc discharge in vapor hydrocarbon atmosphere. The arc plasma enhancing CVD process promotes dramatic increase in the deposition rate and decrease of compressive stress as well as improvement of film thickness uniformity compared to that obtained with a single PVD pulsed arc process. The optical spectroscopy investigation reveals great increase in radiating components of $C_2$ Swan system molecular bands due to acetylene molecules decomposition. AFM, Raman spectroscopy, XPS and nano-indentation were used to characterize DLC films. The method ensures obtaining a new superhard DLC nano-material for deposition of protective coatings onto various industrial products including those used in medicine.

A relationship between discharge delay time and the aging method were investigated: A-Y (Address electrode - Scan electrode) aging and conventional X-Y(Common electrode - Scan electrode) aging with the variation of sustain voltage beyond self-erasing discharge. Although A-Y aging decreases discharge delay time, it has several drawbacks like non-uniformity of discharge, degradation of luminous efficiency and a color temperature. In a conventional aging condition which is carried out near the mid-margin voltage, discharge delay time is short in low voltage and high frequency condition. As an alternative to conventional voltage aging, high voltage aging is suggested which is carried out at self-erasing sustain voltage region. High voltage aging shows lower discharge delay time and fast aging speed than conventional voltage aging.

본 논문에서는 KSTAR 토카막 진공용기의 세정을 위한 방전세정 시스템의 설계에 대해 기술하였다. 먼저 방전세정효율에 영향을 주는 매개변수들에 대해 논의하였으며. 실제 설계에서 직류방전 보다 낮은 압력에서 방전이 시작되고 유지되며 따라서 세정효율이 높은 RG 방전(RF-assisted DC glow discharge) 방법을 채택하였다. 그리고 방전세정의 균일성을 위해 두 개의 방전 전극을 진공용기의 진단포트(A,I-port)에 설치하였다. 설계된 방전세정 시스템은 KSTAR 진공용기 내벽 세정뿐만 아니라 제1벽의 연료재순환(fuel recycling)이나 보론화 처리(boronization)등의 연구에도 응용될 수 있다.

In this study, position optimization of insulation rods and suspension rods in discharge electrode frame of electrostatic precipitator(EP) is performed using finite element analysis(FEA). The object of the optimization is to minimize the difference of altitudes in unevenly sagged horizontal structure and to regulate the size of materials within the allowable stress bounds. Uppermost horizontal channel of discharge electrode frame is highly stressed and uniformity of lowest horizontal angle depends on the position of rods. Ten types of frame are analyzed and one recommended model is presented.

In this study, a high luminous efficacy AC-PDP panel with long discharge gap and grooved dielectric layer has been studied. By applying this high efficacy concept and optimized driving waveform featuring negative biased sustain, ${\sim}2.6lm/W$ of luminous efficacy was achieved in 42- inch HD panel. Modified fabricating process and new discharge cell structure were investigated to obtain improved uniformity and operating characteristics.

In this paper, we studied Surface Discharge Type Flat Fluorescent Lamp(FFL) with High Luminance for LCD Backlighting. This lamp is Surface Discharge Type structure with a pair of Sodalime glass, insulator layer, phosphor layer, and Xe gas gap. There are two influences of Electric field on different dielectric thickness. The Electric field difference at the dielectric layer itself enhances minimum value of firing voltage and luminance uniformity. So, we measured the Electric filed at 0.5mm, 1mm gap length and discharge voltage for difference dielectric layer thickness. In experiment result, the thicker dielectric layer has higher firing voltage and lower current.

This study was conducted to develop a computer simulation program for trickle application of nutrient solution. A computer simulation program using finite element method was developed to evaluate discharges of emitters on trickle application. The uniformity of application for two different lateral line lengths and three application methods was evaluated by the computer simulation program. The results of this study are as follows. 1. A computer simulation program was developed to determine emitter discharges from a trickle application system and pressures at emitter positions by finite element method and to design a uniform trickle application system. 2. The simulation program developed was verified by experiment. The root mean square error between experimental data and simulated data was 1.1% on the average discharge and it was found that the computer simulation program was an effective tool for the design of a trickle application system of nutrient solution. 3. The uniformity of trickle application system was evaluated for three different methods of supplying nutrient solution with different lateral line lengths. The best uniformity was obtained from the method, which supplies nutrient solution from both ends alternatively for the same period of time.

Discharge flows from a centrifugal pump impeller with a specific speed of 150 [rpm, m$^3$/min, m] were experimentally investigated. A large axisymmetric collector instead of a volute casing was installed to obtain circumferentially uniform flow, i.e. without interaction of the impeller and the volute. The unsteady flow was measured at the impeller exit and vaneless diffuser using a hot film probe and a pressure transducer. The flow at impeller exit showed pronounced jet-wake flow patterns. The wake, which was on the suction/hub side at high flow rate, became enlarged pitchwisely on both the hub and the shroud side as the flow rate decreases. The pitchwise non-uniformity of the flow rapidly decreased along the downstream and the non-uniformity almost disappeared at radius ratio of 1.18 for medium flow rate. The mean vaneless diffuser flow was reasonably predicted using a one dimensional analysis when an empirical constant was used to specify the skin friction coefficient. The data can be used for a centrifugal pump impeller design and validation of CFD codes and flow modeling.

The effects of the field emission property in relation to the surface morphology and adhesion force were investigated. The single-wall-nanotube-based cathode was obtained by use of an in-situ arc discharge synthesis method, a screen-printing method and a spray method. The morphologies of the formed emitter layers were very different. The emission stability and uniformity were dramatically improved by employing an in-situ arc discharge synthesis method. In this study, it was confirmed that the current stability and uniformity of the field emission of the cathode depend on the surface morphology and adhesion force of the emitters. The current stability of the field emission device was also studied through an electrical aging process by varying the current and electric field.

Spatial distributions of magnetic flux density in a newly designed magnetized inductively coupled plasma (M-ICP) etcher were investigated. Radial and axial magnetic flux densities as well as the magnetic flux density on the center of the substrate holder were controllable by placing multiple circular coils around the etcher properly. The plasma density non-uniformity in M-ICP (25 Gauss) can be reduced (1.4%) compared to that in ICP (16.7%) when the neutral gas pressure was 0.67 Pa and a right-hand circularly polarized wave (R-wave) can be propagated in to the etcher by making magnetic flux density increases both radially and axially from the center of the substrate holder.
