Show Abstract
We develop a stochastic model for the charge fluctuations on a microscopic dust particle resting on a surface exposed to plasma. We find in steady state that the fluctuations are normally distributed with a standard deviation that is proportional to (CTe)1/2, where C is the particle-surface capacitance and Te is the plasma electron temperature. The time for an initially uncharged ensemble of particles to reach the steady state distribution is directly proportional to CTe.

Show Abstract
We present a low-temperature (300–400 °C), large-area (23 cm×20 cm) and efficient synthesis method for graphene-based transparent conductive films using surface wave plasma chemical vapor deposition. The films consist of few-layer graphene sheets. Their transparency and conductivity characteristics make them suitable for practical electrical and optoelectronic applications, which have been demonstrated by the proper operation of a touch panel fabricated using the films. The results confirm that our method could be suitable for the industrial mass production of macroscopic-scale graphene-based films.

Show Abstract
We have characterized the emission spectrum and temporal history of a pure potassium plasma. Strong broadband emission was observed around 40 nm due to 3s−3p, 3p−3d, and 3d−4f transitions in ions ranging from K2+ to K4+ at a time-averaged electron temperature of about 12 eV. The temporal behavior of this emission strongly follows the recombination phase in the laser-produced plasma and it was reproduced by a hydrodynamic simulation of the potassium plasma which accounted for atomic processes.

Show Abstract
An investigation into the effect of hanging water droplets on a high voltage electrode is presented. This study is extended to a real life application of water droplets hanging on the sheds of high voltage ceramic insulators. The role of the water droplets on the partial discharge and flash over activity is considered. The results show that hanging droplets have a significant influence on corona discharges, which are visible between the sheds of insulators in a power network.
