Wool, silk and nylon 6 fabrics were treated with low-temperature plasma under atmospheric pressure of acetone/argon or helium/argon for 30 and 180 sec, and then dyed with leveling type acid dye, C.I. Acid Red 18 and milling type acid dye, C.I. Acid Blue 83. In spite of short time of the plasma treatment for thirty seconds, the color depth of wool fabrics was increased remarkably with both of the plasma gases, aceton/argon or helium/argon and with the kinds of dyes i.e., levelin type or milling type. But the atmosperic low-temperature plasmas did not increase the depth of silk and nylon 6 fabrics dyed with both of the acid dyes regardless of the teated time and plasma gases. It seems that low-temperature plasma by atmospheric-pressure discharge is effective for improvement of dyeing of wools as is the same way with the low-temperature plasma by glow discharge. The kinds of plasma gases and treated time did not influnce the depth of wool fabric pretreted with the atmosperic low-temperature plasmas.

Cold rolled steel sheet for automotive was treated by Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma to improve the adhesive bonding strength. Through the contact angle test and calculation of surface free energy for cold rolled steel sheet, the changes of surface properties were investigated before and after plasma treatment. The contact angle was decreased and surface free energy was increased after plasma treatment. And the change of surface roughness and morphology were observed by AFM(Atomic Force Microscope). The surface roughness of steel sheet was slightly changed. Based on Taguchi method, single lap shear test was performed to investigate the effect of experimental parameter such as plasma power, treatment time and flow rate of $O_2$ gas. Results shows that the bonding strength of steel sheet treated in Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma was improved about 20% compared with untreated sheet.

In recent years, the cleaning and activation technology of surfaces using atmospheric plasma as well as the deposition technology for coating using atmospheric plasma have been demonstrated conclusively and drawn increasing industrial attention. Especially, due to the simplicity, the technology using atmospheric plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition has been widely studied from many researchers. The plasma source type commonly used as the stabilization of diffuse glow discharges for atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition pressure is the dielectric barrier discharge. In this review paper, some kinds of modified dielectric barrier discharge type will be presented. And, the characteristics of silicon based compound such as SiOx and SiNx deposited using atmospheric plasma enhanced chemical vapor system will be discussed.

Atmospheric-pressure plasmas are used in a variety of materials processes. The lifetime of most atmospheric-pressure plasma sources is limits by electrode erosion due to energetic ion bombardment. These drawbacks were solved recently by several microplasma sources based on microstrip structure, which are more efficient and less prone to perturbations than other microplasma sources. In this work, we propose microplasma sources based on strip line and microstrip line, developed for the generation of microplasmas even in atmospheric air and analyzes these systems with microwave field simulation via comparative study with two previous microwave sources (Microstrip Spit Ring Resonator (MSRR), Microstrip Structure Source (MSS)).

The characteristics of an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) in He discharge are measured with electrical and optical diagnostics methods. The discharge phenomenon in one cycle of the APPJ was diagnosed using intensified charge coupled device (ICCD) imaging. The gate mode images show that the propagation of plasma bullets happens only when the applied voltage on the inner conductor is positive. Moreover, the Schlieren image of the plasma jet shows that the laminar flow is changed into a turbulent flow when the plasma jet is turned on, especially when the gas flow rate increases.

대기압 플라즈마를 이용하여 폴리프로필렌 필름의 표면을 처리한 후 각각 극성 용매(water)와 비극성 용매(diiodomethane)를 사용한 접촉각 측정기로 필름 표면의 접촉각을 측정하였다. 측정된 접촉각을 이용해 표면 자유에너지 변화를 계산한 후 대기압 플라즈마 처리 전후의 폴리프로필렌 필름의 접촉각과 표면 자유에너지 상태를 비교, 분석하였다. 또한 대기압 플라즈마의 처리 조건을 바꿔가며 폴리프로필렌 필름 표면을 처리함으로써 접촉각과 표면 자유에너지가 각각의 처리 조건에 따라 어떠한 영향을 받는지 연구하였다. 대기압 플라즈마 처리 조건에 따라 접촉각 및 표면 자유에너지는 최적값을 보여주거나 일정한 값에 도달하는 경향을 보여 주었다.

Plasma is generated by electrical discharge. Most plasma generation has been carried out at low-pressure gas typically less than one millionth of atmospheric pressure. Plasmas are in general generated from impact ionization of neutral gas molecules by accelerated electrons. The energy gain of electrons accelerated in an electrical field is proportional to the mean free path. Electrons gain more energy at low-pressure gas and generate plasma easily by ionization of neutrals, because the mean free path is longer. For this reason conventional plasma generation is carried out at low pressures. However, many practical applications require plasmas at high-pressure. In order to avoid the requirement for vacuum pumps, researchers in Korea start to develop plasmas in high-pressure chambers where the pressure is 1 atmosphere or greater. Material processing, environmental protection/restoration and improved energy production efficiency using plasmas are only possible for inexpensive bulk plasmas. We thus generate plasmas by new methods and plan to set foundations for new plasma technologies for $21^{st}$ / century industries. This technological research will play a central role in material processing, environmental and energy production industries.

In this study, we aimed to determine the optical properties of the plasma used for the dry cleaning method. The optical properties of the atmospheric pressure plasma device were measured through the degree of ionization of hydrogen or nitrogen gas by ionized atmospheric gas. The degree of ionization of hydrogen or nitrogen is closely associated with surface modification. We observed through our experiments that argon gas, an atmospheric gas, caused an increase in the ionization of nitrogen gas, which has similar ionization energy. This type of increase in nitrogen gas ions is believed to affect surface modification. The results of our study show that the pressure of argon gas and the partial pressure of argon and nitrogen gases lead to different results. This important result shows that argon ions can affect the ionization of nitrogen gas.

본 연구는 저온 상압 플라즈마 장치를 이용하여 구강점막질환을 일으키는 C. albicans 균을 효과적으로 사멸하기 위해 시행하였다. 조직에 적합하게 처리될 수 있도록 저온 상압 플라즈마 장치를 고안하고, 먼저 agar plate에 C. albicans 균을 처리하여 플라즈마를 조사한 결과 agar plate표면에 C. albicans 균을 처리 후 저온 상압 플라즈마 장치를 적용한 결과 60초 처리시 1.2 cm, 180초 처리시 1.4 cm, 300초 처리시 1.7 cm의 박테리아 생장 억제 구간이 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 조직에서의 구강병원균 사멸 효과를 확인하기 위해 HRM-2 마우스 조직에 C. albicans 균을 처리하여 저온 상압 플라즈마를 조사 시 마우스 조직 표면에 C. albicans 균을 오염시켜 저온 상압 플라즈마 처리 후 CFU 방법으로 측정한 결과 300초간 1회 처리시 2 log CFU/ml, 300초간 2회 처리시 3 log CFU/ml, 300초간 3 회 처리시 6 log CFU/ml의 균 수 감소 효과가 나타나는 것을 확인하였다(p<0.05). 따라서, 저온의 저온 상압 플라즈마 장치는 효과적으로 구강 병원균을 사멸시킬 수 있으며, 구강점막질환 치료 장비로서 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Radio-frequency driven atmospheric pressure plasma using argon gas was studied in the inactivation of Campylobacter jejuni in order to investigate its applicability. First, the inactivation study was conducted on an agar surface. C. jejuni NCTC11168 was reduced by more than 7 Log CFU after an 88 s treatment. Another strain, ATCC49943, was studied; however, the inactivation was less efficient, with a 5 Log CFU reduction after a 2 min treatment. Then, chicken breast ham was studied at the $10^6$ CFU inoculation level. The inactivation efficiency was much lower for both strains compared to that on the agar plates. C. jejuni NCTC11168 and ATCC49943 were reduced by 3 Log CFU after a 6 min treatment and by 1.5 Log CFU after a 10 min treatment, respectively. The scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated that C. jejuni cells were deformed or transformed into coccoid form under the plasma treatment. During the plasma treatment, the temperature of the samples did not rise above $43^{\circ}C$, suggesting that heat did not contribute to the inactivation. Meanwhile, water activity significantly decreased after a 10 min treatment (p<0.05). This study conveyed that radio-frequency atmospheric pressure plasma can effectively inactivate C. jejuni with strain-specific variation.
