Microwave sources transform the kinetic energy of an electron beam into microwaves through the interaction of the electrons with a periodic slow wave structure (SWS). A metamaterial (MTM) waveguide is proposed for use in a microwave oscillator instead of a SWS, which have been used for a long time to generate high power. MTMs have interesting properties such as negative refractive index, low group velocity, below cut-off propagation, among others.

Nanofluids hold enhanced physical, chemical, thermal and transport characteristics compared to the base fluids, which signify a great potential for a variety of applications including combustion, liquid propellant, microelectronics, optical and thermal emission devices, energy storage, heat exchanger-cooling systems, hydrogen generation, nuclear safety, and in underwater and military applications. Nanofluids are a new class of fluids engineered by dispersing nanoparticles of size less than 100 nm in base fluids.

In the medical field, demand for endoscopes has been increasing not only for examination but also for minimally invasive treatment. For endoscopic hemostasis, clips and plasma devices called Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) are widely used. Although APC has a short hemostasis time, there is a problem with a tissue that is thermally damaged by high plasma temperature. Meanwhile, promotion of blood coagulation by atmospheric low temperature plasma has been reported. Blood points irradiated with the plasma can clot without thermal damage and stop bleeding. Therefore, applying atmospheric low temperature plasma to endoscopic hemostasis can be expected as a minimally invasive hemostatic method. For that purpose, a mini plasma source that can be inserted into a forceps port of endoscope is required. However, conventional plasma source had been manufactured by machining, there was limitation for miniaturization.

Over the last ten years, graphene has been found significant attention in both academic and industrial research due to its excellent properties include electrical conductivity, thermal stability, large surface area and mechanical strength 1. Graphene oxide, as a derivative of graphene, has been widely investigated material due to functional groups located on its basal and edge structure. On the other hand, conducting polymers are also know as synthetic metals have received a central importance in materials research due to their unique properties 2. The researchers have studied the composites of graphene oxide and conducting polymers. These composites have exhibited a synergic effect leading to significant enhancements in their properties, which are not observed in each component.

The design cycle of RF devices is greatly facilitated by the use of the “virtual prototyping” methodology based on highfidelity computer simulations that are capable of predicting the RF device’s performance in response to changes in its physical parameters. In particular, parameters such as the critical dimensions of the structure or the quantitative properties of its various electromagnetic components are routinely used in the process of optimizing the desired performance characteristics of the RF device. In a typical optimization workflow these parameters are adjusted manually and the simulation code(s) run repeatedly with varying parameter values until desired design criteria are met. This type of process, however, is well suited to semisupervised global optimization. To this end we have integrated several codes including Capstone 1and MICHELLE 2with our recently developed framework prototype for high-performance RF device optimization based on DAKOTA 3and the parallel code deployment and management tool, Galaxy Simulation Builder (GSB 4. We present results from several RF device design studies- based on this extended framework and demonstrate how this approach can help automate and significantly accelerate the geometric parameter search, and ultimately improve the accuracy and efficiency of the RF device design cycle.

Plasma-induced advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been widely investigated [1, 2] due to its ability to generate reactive species such as H2O2 and OH radicals [3]. A pin-towater electrode system was employed to investigate the reaction mechanisms at the plasma-water interface, with water used as the ground electrode under both static and flowing conditions. The formation of H2O2 in water was quantified by the spectrophotometric method, using potassium titanium (IV) oxalate. Tert-butanol was used as an OH radical scavenger, to stop the dimerization of OH radicals into H2O2.

The pseudospark discharge is a low-pressure gas discharge, that can generate extremely high currents within short rise times using a special hollow cathode structure 1, 2. The highquality electron beam has high current density and brightness and the ability to self-focus via ion channel focusing 3. Simulations have shown the pseudospark-sourced electron beam can propagate within background plasma of density $10 ^{14}- 10 ^{16} mathrm {m}^{-3}$ with no applied guiding magnetic field 4, making it excellent for millimeter-wave generation 5. Singleshot electron beam pulses were imaged by a CCD camera measuring light emitted by electron beam impact on $mathrm {a}50 mu mathrm {m}$ thickness stopping copper foil and phosphor screen. The high energy component beam profile has a Lorentzian distribution much smaller than the axial aperture size.

The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) is a new international accelerator laboratory at the GSI in Darmstadt, Germany. The main topic at this facility is aimed to heavy ion research. The FAIR project in comparison to the existing facility GSI extends the research area by raising the energy of heavy ion beams. The demand for acceleration of the beam to the highest possible energy is a highly ionized charge state of the Ion beam. For beam stripping to get higher charge state, the traditional tools are foil stripper and gas stripper. Hence pulsed Plasma is suggested to be a stripper medium. In Frankfurt are different kinds of Pinch Plasmas under investigation for this application. One is a Spherical Theta Pinch and the other a hollow cathode Screw Pinch 1. The screw pinch plasma consists of a superposition of a linear Zpinch and a Theta pinch. The constricting effect on the plasma or conductor is produced by the magnetic field pressure resulting from the magnetic field of the linear current and magnetic field of the coil. The device operates at a frequency of approximate 14 kHz and with a capacity of $34 mu mathrm {F}$. This contribution gives the first results of the transfer efficiency and optical investigations of pulsed the screw pinch compared to a theta pinch 2. In addition first measurements of beam time experiments at GSI will be presented.

In last decades, atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) have been extensively studied, mainly due to their potential for biomedical applications and analytical chemistry. Working gas and voltage profiles have been identified as the main parameters which influence the plasma characteristics. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the nature of the target in front of the plasma jet modifies the plasma discharge1. The aim of this work is to investigate the influence of a conductive target (copper plate) and nonconductive target (glass plate) on a neon plasma jet characteristics.
