The changes in discharge current, emission and/or oscillation frequency of the electric oscillation of a glow discharge are the potential sensitive measure of the concentration of an impurity in the argon plasma supporting gas. A single jet enhanced glow discharge has been interfaced with the gas chromatograph via 1/8" O.D. tube with a heating pad to study the changes in discharge current. To investigate the optimum operating conditions of the glow discharge system as detector for gas chromatography, pressure, gas flow rate, discharge current, distance between the anode and the cathode have been studied.

Glow discharge has lots of attractive properties, such as lower discharge sustaining voltage, no generation of ozone, and so on. And more, ionizer was developed recently using an atmospheric pressure glow discharge. On the other hand, ionizer needs a compressed or blown air to transport ion for charged objects. This air is very useful in explosive hazardous area to prevent the explosion of flammable gas and/or vapor by ignition sources, e.g. electrical spark. In this paper, we investigated the ionizing characteristic of atmospheric pressure glow discharge by controlled air flow rate from 5 liters to 60 liters a minute, and compared with decay time between the corona discharge and glow discharge as a function of some direction and distance from discharge ion source. We confirmed that an air flow rate needs 25 liters a minute to sustain the most suitable atmospheric pressure glow discharge and to increase an ionizing efficiency.

Ionizers are essential in various areas of manufacturing industries to protect electrostatic hazards and to reduce inferior products. For ion sources used in the charge neutralizers, there are corona discharge, soft X-ray, ultraviolet and glow discharge. Glow discharge has lots of attractive properties, such as lower discharge sustaining voltage, no generation of ozone, and so on. In this paper, we did an experimental study to trace the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric pressure glow discharge using the several size and shape of electrodes. As an experimental result, to sustain conditions of atmospheric pressure glow discharge is that discharge voltage is 360V, discharge current is 12mA, apply frequency is 1kHz between electrodes when positive electrode is molybdenum(Mo) and negative electrode is copper(Cu). We confirmed that the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric glow discharge is deeply concerned with the shape and material of electrode for discharge. Especially, glow discharge in atmospheric pressure was well generated and sustained according with the physical properties used electrode materials, example melting point, thermal conductivity, and etc.

Generally, it is difficult to analyze cast iron samples with spark discharge emission spectrometry since the content of carbon in these samples is high as a few percent. The cast iron samples were analyzed with the developed glow discharge emission spectrometer composed of glow discharge emission source and polychromator. The discharge condition of glow discharge lamp(GDL) has been optimized by variation of Ar gas pressure, discharge voltage and discharge time. Under the optimum conditions obtained in this work, relationships between the measured emission intensities and concentration of two types of cast iron standard samples(BAS, LECO) were investigated. Most of elements(Mn, Si, P, S etc.) showed the good linearity in one calibration curve. And the carbon showed slightly the systematic difference according to the type of standard samples.

The plasma oscillation has been observed in an argon pressure between a tungsten anode and cathode consisting of an aqueous conducting solution. The effects of experimental parameters on the electrical characteristics of the glow discharge have been studied. The experimental parameters include the anode-cathode distance, pressure, methanol flow rate, and cathode materials. The glow discharge with liquid cathode and solid anode showed the potential sensitive detector for HPLC

We have studied on plasma diagnosis, characteristics of the glow discharge at the several different conditions of pressure, discharge current and such. The discharge onset voltage and onset current decreased as pressure increase, the general trend was nearly in agreement with the left regions of Paschen's curve. As normal glow discharge, discharge voltage was constant according to discharge current.

Schiff base ligand columns and glow discharge detector have been developed for the trace analysis of metal ions desolved in water. Various types of hydrazide Schiff base ligands have been used and, additionally, they were examined as a filling material of a HPLC column. The hydrazide Schiff base ligands used were N, N'-oxalybis(salicylaldehydrazone) (OBSH), N, N'-malonylbis(salicylaldehydrazone) (MBSH), and N, N'-succinylbis(salicylaldehydrazone) (SBSH). A mixture of Schiff base ligand and poly(styrene divinylbenzene) was examined and it showed a smooth flow of solution. The OBSH-polymer column demonstrated different effluent factors for different metal ions. Metal ions in eluates were detected by Hollow Cathode Glow Discharge-Atomic Emission Spectrometry(HCGD-AES). HCGD-AES showed good sensitivity and selectivity. This is only the preliminary results of new OBSH-polymer column and glow discharge detector.

The quantitative analysis experiment of Zn-Fe electroplated steel was carried out by means of glow discharge spectrometry. The experimental results of chemical composition and coating weight of the Zn-Fe layer were compared with those obtained by the wet chemical analysis method. It has been found that those results obtained by two different methods agreed well with each other.

In the present study the glow discharge characteristics of $CO_2$ in a parallel plate electrode system were investigated, and the decomposition properties of $CO_2$ concerned with the discharge characteristics were discussed. The results show that $CO_2$ concentration decreases with increase in discharge power and decrease in gas pressure. The maximum conversion of $CO_2$ by glow discharge was 52% under the conditions of gas pressure, 10m Torr and 290W of discharge power.

In this paper the design of the discharge cleaning system for KSTAR vacuum vessel is described. We first discuss about the parameters which are related the efficiency of discharge cleaning. The RG(RF-assisted Glow) discharge which has the ignition and sustain pressure lower than those in the case of DC discharge, thus has the higher efficiency of discharge cleaning. So we adopt the RG discharge, in practical design, for KSTAR discharge cleaning system. For uniformity of the cleaning effect, we plan to install two discharge cleaning systems in A- and I-port of the KSTAR vacuum vessel. The designed system will be adapted for the study of the fuel recycling and of the boronization as well as the discharge cleaning of the KSTAR vacuum vessel.
