This paper is a study about a proper method of plasma generation to cleaning method and a high frequency power equipment circuit to generation of plasma that used cleaning of chamber for TFT-LCD PECVD. The high density plasma required for cleaning causes a possibility of high density plasma more than $1{\times}10^{11}[EA/cm^3]$. It apply a ferrite core of ferromagnetic body to a existing ICP form. In case of power transfer equipment on 400[kHz] high frequency to generation of plasma it makes certain a stable switching operation in condition of plasma through using a inverter form for general purpose HB. And it demonstrates the performance of power transfer equipment using methods of measurement which use a transformer of series combination the density of plasma and the rate of dissolution of $NF_3$ in condition of $A_r\;and\;NF_3$.

This study examined the relationships between protein expression and Poly ADP ribose polymerase in brain cell death in brains damaged by thrombotic stroke and treated with the Full Wave- Cockroft Walton (FWCW) method of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). The two-way switching element for TMS drove a half-bridge inverter of the current resonance of direct current voltage (+) and direct current voltage (-), and the experiment was conducted by stimulating the mice with thrombotic stroke through a range of pulses. Thrombotic stroke was caused of ligation of the common carotid artery of male SD mice, and blood reperfusion was conducted five minutes later. Protein expression was examined in immune reaction cells, which reacted to an antibody to Poly ADP ribose polymerase in the cerebrum cells, and western blotting. Observations of the PARP changes after thrombotic stroke showed that the number of Poly ADP ribose polymerase reactions were significantly lower (p < 0.05) in the group treated with TMS of the FWCW than the group with thrombotic stroke 24 hours after its onset. The application of FWCW-TMS helped prevent the necrosis of nerve cells and might prevent the brain damage that occurs as a result of thrombotic stroke, and improve the function recovery and disorder of brain cells.

Welding machines are high-capacity systems used in a low-frequency range using IGBT. As their system is similar to a large transformer, most welding machines suffer a great loss because of hard switching and vast leakage inductance. A voltage-balancing circuit is designed to overcome these shortcomings. This circuit can reduce the transformer size by making it into a high frequency and reducing the input voltage by half and by adopting a serial structure that connects two full-bridges in a series to use a MOSFET with a good property at high frequency. In addition, a Schottky diode is used in the primary rectifier to overcome the low efficiency of most welding machines. To use the Schottky diode with a reliably relatively low withstanding voltage, an active snubber is adopted to effectively limit the ringing voltage of the diode cut-off voltage.

HID(high intensity discharge)lamps include high pressure mercury lamp, high pressure sodium lamp and metal halide lamp. Metal halide lamps have been considered to be one of the most erective light sources. These lamps have good efficiency, good color rendering and good focusing capability. The objective of this research is to alum on the metal halide lamp(MH70W) by the developed electronic ballast with free voltage input(AC 100∼277V). The developed electronic ballast consists of a free voltage input converter, a flyback converter ＆ half-bridge inverter, ignitor ＆ protector and control1er. Experimental results show that developed electronic ballast turns on the metal halide lamp(MH70W) with free voltage input(AC 100∼277V) very well.

In hybrid energy storage systems, supercapacitors are usually connected in series to meet the required voltage levels. Equalizers are effective in prolonging the life of hybrid energy storage systems because they eliminate the voltage imbalance on cells. This study proposes a modularized equalizer, which is based on a combination of a half-bridge inverter, an inductor, and two auxiliary capacitors. The proposed equalizer inherits the advantages of inductor-based equalization systems, but it also offers unique merits, such as low switching losses and an easy-to-use control algorithm. The zero-voltage switching scheme is analyzed, and the power model is established. A fixed-frequency operation strategy is proposed to simplify the control and lower the cost. The switching patterns and conditions for zero-voltage switching are discussed. Simulation results based on PSIM are presented to verify the validity of the proposed equalizer. An equalization test for two supercapacitor cells is performed. An experimental hybrid energy storage system, which consists of batteries and supercapacitors, is established to verify the performance of the proposed equalizer. The analysis, simulation results, and experimental results are in good agreement, thus indicating that the circuit is practical.

This paper introduces a newly improved Ultra-FRFET that has much better reverse recovery characteristic than that of the typical MOSFET and presents its effectiveness in the HV-BLU system of LCD TVs. The reverse recovery time, $T_{rr}$ of Ultra-FRFET is shorter than 40nsec and the peak value of reverse current, $i_{rr}$ is also much smaller compared to the typical MOSFET's, which are sufficient to prevent the MOSFET’s failures without additional FRDs and diodes in HV-BLU system with a half-bridge resonant inverter topology worked by PWM method. In order to verify the validity, the loss analysis and the implementation results in cases when both the conventional solution using typical MOSFETs with additional FRDs and a new solution using Ultra-FRFETs are applied to a HV-BLU of 40" LCD TV are presented. As a result, the effectiveness of Ultra-FRFET was verified and the results are presented in this paper.

Currently, The method to produce a brewing body for dentistry supplementation water produces a brewing body by fabrication, burying and it is heat wish in city gas and oxygen. It uses an original judgment found airplane the brewing body uses a spring of the back wait that melting temperature dissolved various alloys in by a blow pipe, and to generate centrifugal force and produces it. In addition, because it uses preheating to dissolve an alloy in general, it is hard to regulate the appropriate melting temperature of the alloy and brewing time and generates a brewing defect hereby same as gas industry and pinhole and shows the defect of the supplementation thing due to the super-heating. In this paper, We developed the high induction heating system which it could set brewing time,temperature and had durability and security,by the kind of the alloy to produce a high quality prosthetic thing brewing body.

In this paper, In order to solve the problem is proposed using a new type of electronic ballast that the traditional magnetic ballasts operated at 50-60Hz have been suffered from noticeable flicker, high loss, large crest factor and heavy weight which is composed of rectifier, active power corrector, series resonant half bridge inverter, micro-controller and piezoelectric transformer for driving for driving T5 fluorescent lamp were manufactured. The proposed electronic ballast operated at high frequency (about 75kHz) shows a input power factor of more than 0.995, total harmonic distortion of less than $12\%$ and lamp current crest factor of less than 1.5, respectively. Output power and efficiency showed 28w and $85\%$, respectively. Accordingly, it is considered that the ballast using piezoelectric transformer can replace the typical electronic ballast.

Nowadays, CO2 lasers are used widely in many applications such as materials fabrication, communications, remote sensing and military purpose etc. It is important to control the laser output power in those fields. In this paper, current resonant half-bridge inverter and Cockcraft-Walton circuit are used to vary the laser output power. This laser power supply is designed and fabricated which has less switching losses and compact size. Also we used an IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) as a switching device of a power supply and PIC one-chip microprocessor are used to control the gate signal of the IGBT precisely. We investigated the output characteristics of this CO2 laser. As a result, the maximum laser output power of 26[W] is obtained at the resonant frequency of about 13[kHz].
