Glow Discharge를 이용한 고체 시료의 극미량 원소분석은 흡광, 방출, 형광 그리고 질량 분석 방법들이 특히 금속 시료들의 분석을 위해 많이 연구되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자체 제작한 Gas-Jet-assisted Glow Discharge(GJGD)를 이용하여 각 실험변수에 따른 영향을 비교하여 보았다. 제작한 글로우 방전의 특성화 실험에 사용한 실험 변수로는 전류, 방전 가스의 흐름 속도, 압력 등이었고 시료는 황동을 사용하였다. 시료의 주원소인 구리(Cu)와 아연(Zn)의 방출선세기와 방전가스인 아르곤(Ar)의 상대적인 세기를 비교하여 보았는데, 대체적으로 전류의 증가는 튕겨나옴(Sputtering) 현상을 촉진시켜 방출선의 세기가 증가하였고 가스 흐름 속도는 플라즈마 속으로의 수송과 확산에 관여하여 증가될수록 방출선의 세기를 감소시켰다. 글로우 방전 내의 압력의 증가는 튕겨나옴 현상을 감소시킴과 더불어 시료 표면으로의 재부착을 증가시켜 방출선의 세기가 급격히 감소함을 보여 주었다.

Effects of magnesium and pH on corrosion of aluminum galvanically coupled to iron have studied by using potentio- dynamic and static tests for polarization curves, Mott-Schottky test for analysis of semiconductor property, and GD-AES and XPS for film analysis. Pitting potential was sensitive to magnesium as an alloying element but not to pH, while passive current was sensitive to pH but not to magnesium. It was explained with, instead of point defect model (PDM), surface charge model describing that the ingression of chloride depends on the state of surface charge and passive film at film/solution interface is affected by pH. In addition, galvanic current of aluminum electrically coupled to iron was not affected by magnesium in pH 8.4, 0.2M citrate solution but was increased by magnesium at the solution of pH 9.1. The galvanic current at pH 9.1 increased with time at the initial stage and after the exposure of about 200 minute, decreased and stabilized. The behavior of the galvanic current was related with the concentration of magnesium at the surface. It agreed with the depletion of magnesium at the oxide surface by using glow discharge atomic emission spectroscopy (GD-AES). In addition, pitting potential of pure aluminum was reduced in neutral pH solution where chloride ion maybe are competitively adsorbed on pure aluminum. It was confirmed by the exponential decrease of pitting potential with log of [$Cl^-$] around 0.025 M of [$Cl^-$] and linear decrease of the pitting potential. From the above results, unlike magnesium, alloying elements with higher electron negativity, lowering isoelectric point (ISE), are recommended to be added to improve pitting corrosion resistance of aluminum and its alloys in neutral solutions as well as their galvanic corrosion resistance in weakly basic solutions.
