Various types of dielectric-barrier-discharge (DBD) devices have been developed for diverse applications for the last decade. In this study, a flat non-thermal DBD micro plasma source under atmospheric pressure has been developed. The flat-panel type plasma is generated by bipolar pulse voltages, and driving gas is air. In this study, the plasma source was investigated with intensified charge coupled device (ICCD) images and Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES). The micro discharges are generated on the crossed electrodes. For theoretical analysis, 2-dimensional fluid simulation was performed. The plasma source can be driven in air, and thus the operation cost is low and the range of application is wide.

Atmospheric pressure plasma equipment was successfully applied to the flip chip BGA manufacturing process to improve the uniformity of flux printing process. The problem was characterized as shrinkage of the printed flux layer due to insufficient surface energy of the flip chip BGA substrate. To improve the hydrophilic characteristics of the flip chip BGA substrate, remote DBD type atmospheric pressure plasma equipment was developed and adapted to the flux print process. The equipment enhanced the surface energy of the substrate to reasonable level and made the flux be distributed over the entire flip chip BGA substrate uniformly. This research was the first adaptation of the atmospheric pressure plasma equipment to the flip chip BGA manufacturing process and a lot of possible applications are supposed to be extended to other PCB manufacturing processes such as organic cleaning, etc.

Polypropylene(PP) is a textile material with various functions such as eco-friendliness, lightness, and elasticity. Although most synthetic fibers can be dyed and finished, but original PP is difficult to dye or finish due to its extremely hydrophobic properties, so its application expansion is limited. In order to solve this problem, dyeable PP was developed, and various researches on textiles for clothing such as mass production technology, fine fiberization and performance improvement are in progress. Plasma treatment is a processing method for modifying the surface of fabrics, and has effects such as hydrophilization, deepening color, improving adhesion, and surface polymerization. In this study, plasma treatment was applied to study changes in hydrophilization properties of dyeable PP, surface changes before and after plasma treatment and performance according to hydrophilization.

The physical mechanism of a RF discharge used in photoresist stripping and etching process are not well understood and, plasma reactor design and the determination of optimum operating coditions are done largely on empirical basis. We analyzed the discharge process through the measurement of plasma characteristics and applied out results tothe analysis of the photoresist stripping. We investigated the effects of plasma electron density, neutral oxygen gas pressure and electrode temperature on the stripping rates and related their effects with the characteristics of plasma.

플라즈마는 물질의 제4의 상태로서 이온화된 가스로 불리며 다양한 활성종 및 수산화기, 하전입자, 이온, 자유 전자, 산소등을 발생시키는 특징을 가지고 있다. 20세기 후반에 플라즈마는 산업현장에서 활발히 사용되고 있으며, 최근 저온 상압 플라즈마 장치가 개발되면서 의생명 분야에 적용되기 시작했다. 저온 상압 플라즈마는 인체조직에 열 손상을 입히지 않을 뿐만 아니라, 암 치료, 살균, 치아미백, 지혈, 상처치유 등에서 높은 효율성을 보이고 있다. 이때 발생되는 활성종은 포유세포나 병원균에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한, 다학제간의 연구를 통해 저온 상압 플라즈마의 활용범위는 다양한 영역으로 넓어지고 있으며, 새로운 첨단 의료기술로서의 가치가 높아지고 있다. 저온 상압 플라즈마가 포유세포와 미생물에 적용된 이후, 지난 10여 년간 급속한 발전을 통해 최근 플라즈마 메디신이란 학문영역으로 성장했다. 본 논문은 저온 플라즈마가 적용되고 있는 분야에 대해 소개하고, 플라즈마 메디신에 대한 이해를 돕고자 한다.

간단한 자기장 감금이 레이저 유도 플라즈마의 전하 입자들에 미치는 영향이 논의 되었다. 자기장 영향에 대한 이전 연구들은 주로 플라즈마 방전 세기의 향상이나 수명시간 연장에 집중되었다. 이와 대조적으로, 본 개발은 과거에 거의 다뤄지지 않았던, 플라즈마 소멸에 대해 연구하였다. 이는 플라즈마를 활용한 기술개발에 혁신적인 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다. Nd:YAG 레이저(1064 nm, 6 ns)가 3가지 타입의 금속 물질(Al, Ti, STS)과 공기 중에 집광되었다. Nd₂Fe₁₄B 자석으로 0.4T 크기의 자기장을 만들었고, 이를 레이저 유도 플라즈마에 관통시켰다. 플라즈마 스펙트럼은 레이저 파워와 분광기의 딜레이 타임을 조정해 가면서 자기장 여부에 따른 수치가 측정되었다. O I(777.42 nm), Fe I (520.447 nm), Ti I (503.649 nm), Al I (396.147 nm) 스펙트럼 분석을 통해 자기장에 의한 플라즈마의 소멸이 특정 조건에 상관없이 항상 촉진됨을 독점적으로 발견하였다.

Plasma-derived products are produced from plasma via fractionation and chromatography techniques, but can also be produced by other methods. In the performance of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAT) with plasma-derived products, it is necessary to include an internal control for the monitoring of all procedures. In order to avoid false negative results, we confirmed the usefulness of the bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) for use as an internal control in the detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA in plasma-derived products. These products, which were spiked with BVDV, were extracted and then NAT was performed. Specificity and sensitivity were determined via the adjustment of primer concentrations and annealing temperatures. BVDV detection allows for validation in the extraction, reverse transcription, and amplification techniques used for HCV detection in plasma-derived products.

Fish bacterial diseases have spread and caused serious problem for cultured marine fish in Korea. The important bacterial disease affecting mariculture such as olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) are caused by Edwardsiella tarda, Vibrio scophthalmi and Streptococcus parauberis. For the bacterial disease protection in aquaculture industry, the water treatment is needed in aquaculture system. During the last decades atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma in contact with liquids have received a lot of attention of environmental and medical application. In this study, we determined the disinfectant effect in seawater and three major fish bacterial disease pathogens by using low frequency plasma treatment. Three fish bacteria (E. tarda, V. schophthalmi, S. parauberis) were not detected within 16 min, 150 min and 270 min of 20 L, 500 L and 1 ton seawater post low frequency plasma treatment, respectively. Three major fish bacterial disease pathogens were not detected within 2 min after the low frequency plasma treatment, suggesting that the low frequency plasma possess disinfectant effectiveness.

Physico-chemical changes of the plasma modified titanium alloy [Ti-6Al-4V] surface were studied with respect to their crystallographic changes by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).The plasma-treatment of surface was carried out to enhance adhesion of high performance nano reinforced epoxy adhesive, a phenomenon that was manifested in subsequent experimental results. The enhancement of adhesion as a consequence of improved spreading and wetting on metal surface was studied by contact angle (sessile drop method) and surface energy determination, which shows a distinct increase in polar component of surface energy. The synergism in bond strength was established by analyzing the lap-shear strength of titanium laminate. The extent of enhancement in thermal stability of the dispersed nanosilica particles reinforced epoxy adhesive was studied by Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), which shows an increase in onset of degradation and high amount of residuals at the high temperature range under study. The fractured surfaces of the joint were examined by Scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Nonthermal atmospheric plasma has been studied for its many biomedical effects, such as tooth bleaching, wound healing, and coagulation. In this study, the effects of dentinal tubules occlusion were investigated using fluoride-carboxymethyl cellulose (F-CMC) gel, nano-sized hydroxyapatite (n-HA), and nonthermal atmospheric plasma. Human dentin specimens were divided to 5 groups (group C, HA, HAF, HAP, and HAFP). Group HA was treated with n-HA, group HAF was treated with n-HA after a F-CMC gel application, group HAP was treated with n-HA after a plasma treatment and group HAFP was treated with n-HA after a plasma and F-CMC gel treatment. The occlusion of dentinal tubules was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), which shows Ca/P ratio. In the EDS results, a higher Ca/P ratio was shown in the groups including n-HA than in the control group. The specimens of group HAP and HAFP had a higher Ca/P ratio in retentivity. In the SEM results, there was not a significant difference in the amount of times applied. Therefore, this study suggests F-CMC gel and n-HA treatment using nonthermal atmospheric plasma will be a new treatment method for decreasing hypersensitivity.
