The turbulence in the nonlinear regime of the electromagnetic ion-cyclotron (EMIC) instability are investigated via a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. EMIC instability arises from anisotropic ion temperature and excites the Alfven ion-cyclotron (AIC) waves. The excited AIC waves undergo inverse-cascade via the nonlinear wave interaction of two AIC and one ion density modes. Induced ion density modes are the normal and second harmonic ion-acoustic (IA) waves. They have the same group velocity, but the second harmonic IA mode only generates the longitudinal electric field.

The global balance model is applied to investigate the transient behavior of the electron density and temperature in helicon plasmas. The power absorption calculated from the solutions of the Maxwell equations is used in solving the power balance equation. A balance model for the neutral gas is also considered to fins its density self-consistently. It is turned out that the numerical results reasonably explain consequences of the ion pumping effect including the occurrence of two distinct modes of pulsed helicon discharge which have been observed experimentally. The behavior of the discharge parameters are fond to be primarily dependent on the power absorption and the gas flow rate, but the pressure controls the electron density and temperature of the final steady state as well as the transient state even with the same flow rate. Finally, it is shown that the electron density virtually the linear relationship between the density and the magnetic field is retained for a higher pressure when the effect of the ion pumping is negligible.

The possibility of application of membrane type immobilized adsorbent to the fed-batch or perfusion culture system with anchorage-independent cells as well as batch system was investigated. The improvement in cell density and cell viability due to the combination of immobilized adsorbent with each culture system was evaluated for the investigation, and the optimum culture system employing immobilized adsorbent system was suggested based on the results. It was observed that the system with immobilized adsorbent showed better cell growth and cell viability than that without immobilized adsorbent in every operation system of batch, fed-batch, and perfusion. In case of batch system, 200% improvement of maximum cell density was observed in the system where ammonium chloride was added on purpose. And 50% improvement of maximum cell density was observed in the fed-batch system where ammonium ion accumulates significantly, while small increase in maximum cell density was observed in the perfusion system where dilution of waste byproducts exists. Especially, the fed-batch system showed the most significant improvement on cell growth because both compensation of nutrient and removal of ammonium ion occurred simultaneously in the system. Therefore a combined system of immobilized adsorbent and fed-batch operation could be suggested as an optimum system with in situ removal of ammonium ion.

A 6-way-cross consisting of a 2.75-inch CF flange was used as a main chamber on a PFEIFFER VACUUM TMP station based on a 67 l / sec turbo molecular pump and a diaphragm pump to produce a magnet array with a volume ratio of 5.5: 1.A 1-inch diameter copper target and graphite target were fabricated using MDX-1.5K from Advanced Energy Industries, Inc as a DC power supply. Ion current density of copper target and graphite target was measured by unbalanced magnetron sputtering. The basic pressure condition was $6.3{\times}10^{-7}mbar$ and the process pressure was Ar 50 sccm at $1.0{\times}10^{-2}mbar$ (7.5 mTorr) in the Ar atmosphere. Therefore, the relative density of copper ions reaching the substrate with the measured ion current density was derived.

This paper proposes the improvement of the etch rate of GaN using a magnetized inductively coupled $CH_4/H_2/Ar$plasma. The gradient magnetic field with the axial direction is investigated using Gauss-meter and the ion current density is measured using double Langmuir probe. The applied magnetic field changes the ion current density profile in the radial direction, resulting in producing the higher density in the outer region than in the center. GaN dry etching process is carried out based on the measurements of the ion current density. The each rate of 2000 /min is achieved with $CH_4/H_2/Ar$ chemistries at 800 W input power, 250W rf bias power, 10 mTorr pressure and 100 gauss magnetic field.

Zinc-ion Batteries (ZIBs) are currently considered to be effective energy storage devices for wearable electronics because of their low cost and high safety. Indeed, ZIBs show high power density and safety compared with conventional lithium ion batteries (LIBs) and exhibit high energy density in comparison with supercapacitors (SCs). However, in spite of their advantages, further current collector development is needed to enhance the electrochemical performance of ZIBs. To design the optimized current collector for high performance ZIBs, a high quality graphene film is suggested here, with improved electrical conductivity by controlling the defects in the graphene film. The graphene film showed improved electrical conductivity and good electron transfer between the current collector and active material, which led to a high specific capacity of 346.3 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 100 mA g^-1, a high-rate performance with 116.3 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 2,000 mA g^-1, and good cycling stability (68.0 % after 100 cycles at a current density of 1,000 mA g^-1). The improved electrochemical performance is firmly because of the defects-controlled graphene film, leading to improved electrical conductivity and thus more efficient electron transfer between the current collector and active material.

On 9/5/2003, the planet probe “HAYABUSA” as MUSES-C project was launched by The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. “HAYABUSA” has microwave discharge ion engines and these engines are characterized by their high efficiency and specific impulse in comparison with chemical engine. A large ion engine can be used as a planet explorer, while a small ion engine can be used as attitude control of small satellite. We have been developing a high thrust density microwave discharge ion engine using “Multi-Monopole Antenna”. The performance of this engine are: ion cost of 344W/A, propellant utilization efficiency of 52% and thrust density of 0.055mN/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for Kr gas flow rate of 2.5sccm, microwave(2.45㎓) power of 32W and acceleration voltage of l.4㎸.

In this paper, an ion analyzer is used in conjunction with a Langmuir probe to study the chracteristics of ECR plasma such as the ion temperature, ion current density and electron temperature as the operating pressure, ${\mu}$-wave power and axial position change, Silicon etching has been performed with RF-biasing and its etching chracteristics have been discussed in terms of the ion energy distribution function. The maximum value of ion current density appears in the range of 10S0-3T mbar and the broadening of ion energy distribution function increases as pressure increases. Therefore, as pressure decreases, anisotropy increases but selectivity to photoresist decreases.

To develop a technique of theoretical alpha track density calculation for comparison with measured track density, an electrostatic ion spectrometer was specially designed and fabricated. The mobility spectrum of first radon daughter(Po-218) in the range of $0.07{\sim}5.0cm^2/V\;s$ from the radon chamber was measured using-the electrostatic ion spectrometer. Measurement was taken in a radon chamber operated using dry particle free air passed through silica gel, activated charcoal and molecular sieve filters. The mobility of a new-born Po-218 ion measured by the electrostatic ion spectrometer was determined to be $1.92cm^2/V\;s$. A comparison of the theoretical and measured alpha track densities was completed and uncertainties concerning the shape of the spectrum were analyzed. It was found that the discrepancies in track densities are primarily Que to the neglect of wall loss of ions in the theoretical track density calculation.

A high cell density culture system for the anchorage dependent CHO cells was developed based on the combination of in removal of ammonium ion and microcarrier culture system, and semi-fed-batch feeding of glucose and glutamine was employed to the developed culture system. The glass bead was selected as an optimum microcarrier in terms of cell growth. An ammonium ion selective zeolite, Phillipsite-Gismondine, was packed in a dialysis menium ion. The semi-fed-batch operation was employer to the novel culture system for the high density cell culture, and the results showed the cell growth was improved by 32% and tPA productivity by 250%.
