자외선을 대체하여 형광등이나 자연광(햇빛)을 이용하여 $TiO_2$로 수은제거 실험을 수행하였다. 반응기는 내부의 $TiO_2$가 광원에 최대한 노출되도록 디자인하였으며 회전할 수 있게 하였다. 반응기 내부에 $TiO_2$와 유리비드를 섞어 넣어 기상수은과 흡착제와의 접촉면적을 최대화하였다. 광촉매가 가장 활성을 잘 보이는 UV black light뿐 아니라 실험에 사용된 모든 광원에서 99% 이상의 수은제거효율을 보였다. 인체에 무해하고 경제성이 좋은 형광등이나 태양광하에서도 99% 이상의 수은제거효율을 얻었다.

Recently, 2-dimensional flat light sources have been attracting much attention for its use in LCD backlight applications because of its high luminous efficiency and uniformity. A long-gap discharge, mercury-tree flat fluorescent lamp has been developed, which shows a high brightness ($>5000\;cd/m^2$) and high luminous efficacy (60 lm/W). Additionally, it has a wide operating margin and stable driving condition with the aid of an auxiliary electrode. For driving the lamp, a narrow pulse power to maintain the glow discharge state is required. Since there has been no research for this kind of lamp driving, this paper proposes a newly developed short-pulse, high-voltage lamp-driving scheme. The proposed lamp system uses a ballast with a coupled-inductor in order to raise the short pulse voltage up to the lamp ignition level and to obtain energy-recovery action during the glow discharge mode. The operation principles are presented and also the system performances such as the lighting efficiency, spatial and angular uniformities are evaluated by hardware experiments. The results show that the proposed lighting system is a good candidate for the next-generation of LCD backlight systems.

In whole world consciousness of environment maintenance have increased very quickly for the end of the 20th century. To use and disuse toxic substances have been controled at the field of industry. Also the field of lighting source belong to environmental control. And in the future the control will be strong. In radiational mechanism of fluorescence lamp mercury is the worst environmental problem and root. In the mercury free lighting source system the Xe gas lamp is one type. And the Ne:Xe and Ne:Ar mixed gas lamp improve firing voltage of Xe gas lamp. Purpose of this study is to understand ideal mixing-ratio of Ne:Xe and Ne:Ar gas by electron temperature and electron density for mercury free lamp. Before ICP was designed, basic parameters of plasma, which are electron temperature and electron density, were measured and calculated by single-Langmuir probe. Property of electron temperature and electron density were confirmed by changing ratio of Ne:Xe and Ne:Ar.

Conventional backlight for liquid crystal display (LCD) uses mercury which leads to environmental pollution. In this study, characteristics of AC coplanar type mercury-free plasma flat lamp have been studied. Pollution-free Xe-He is adopted as a discharge gas system. Since the Xe gas has a lower efficiency in generating vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) than mercury, the improvement of luminance and luminous efficiency in the Xe gas system is very important. The electrode, dielectric, and phosphor layers constituting lamp are formed on the bottom glass by the screen printing method. The effects of pulse shape, on-time, and pulse frequency on the luminance and luminous efficiency have been examined. For Xe(5%)-He gas, the lamp exhibits higher efficiency with sharper pulse shape, higher peak voltage, and shorter pulse on-time (up to 2 $\mu\textrm{s}$). Higher efficiency and lower consumption of power were obtained at 30 kHz than at 60 kHz. The collision of ion to bottom electrodes is a dominant factor to raise the lamp temperature. Therefore the high voltage and low current discharge system is necessary for reduction of the lamp temperature as well as for enhancement of the luminous efficiency.

A new mercury-free flat fluorescent lamp with a single cell having dimension 2.2inches across the diagonal, had been developed which shows a wide, stable operating voltage margin, high luminance and luminous efficacy by adopting the bipolar pulse drive scheme. In this paper, the single cell is expanded into a multi-structured configuration to realize a 32inch sized panel across the diagonal by a simple repetition of the single cells. A driving scheme is proposed for a 2-bit areal selective dimming using dual auxiliary electrodes and bipolar drive scheme.

A Mercury-free, flat light source which shows high luminance and luminous efficiency simultaneously has been developed. An electrodeless, dielectric barrier discharge is used to generate the plasma using Ne-Xe mixture gas of relatively low gas pressure of a few tens torr in a 4.1 inch diagonal size of flat panel. The basic properties of the long gap glow discharge and its accompanying instabilities, which prevents us from having high luminous efficiency discharge have been analyzed. A new structure and optimized driving methods have been used to generate a glow discharge which shows a wide voltage margin of a few hundred volts. The luminous efficiency and luminance could be 110 lm/W at $1300\;cd/m^2$ and 50 lm/W at $5500\;cd/m^2$.
