Study of plasmachemical reduction of corrosive layers on brass
Řádková, Lucie ; Selucká, Alena (referee) ; Krčma, František (advisor)
The main topic of this bachelor thesis is plasmachemical treatment of archeological artifacts, especially plasma chemical treatment of brass corrosion layers. Low-pressure, low-temperature hydrogen plasma is used for this process. Nowadays, the technology is used mainly for iron or silver based materials but even for them the optimal conditions for the corrosion removal are not fully known yet. The knowledge about other metallic materials is fully missing. Two sets of brass samples were prepared in different corrosion atmospheres. The first atmosphere was prepared using saturated vapors of HCl. The samples were in this atmosphere during one month, and corrosion layers were orange-brown. The second set was prepared using ammonium solution, the samples were in this atmosphere for one day, corrosion layers were blue. The generation of capacitively coupled plasma in continuous mode by different supplied power was done. The experiments were carried out at 100 Pa with hydrogen gas flow of 50 sccm. Discharge power was varied in the interval 50 – 200 W and the treatment duration was 70 – 140 min. The optical emission spectroscopy of OH radical was used to find out all changes those have been resulting from plasmachemical reactions. The OH radical integral intensities were observed, they were used to monitoring plasma chemical reduction process. Spectral intensity of spectroscope was in the range 290 – 330 nm. After the plasmachemical treatment, it was very difficult to remove corrosion layers of HCl, but removing of NH3 corrosion layers was easy. It was caused by type of corrosion process (corrosion layers were influenced by time of corrosion process). This bachelor thesis is the start to find out conduct corrosion layers of brass in plasma treatment. In future, plasma treatment could be used to treatment of real archaeological artifacts.

Reduction of brass corrosion layers using hydrogen plasma
Řádková, Lucie ; Grossmannová, Hana (referee) ; Krčma, František (advisor)
The main topic of this Diploma thesis is the application of low-pressure low-temperature hydrogen plasma for the treatment model samples of rusted brass. Plasmachemical treatment of metallic artifacts is a relatively new way how to remove corrosion of artifacts. The temperature of an object should not exceed 150 °C during the treatment. Corrosion layers were prepared in an ammoniac corrosion atmosphere. The corrosion formation took two weeks. Energy Dispersive X-ray Microanalysis has shown that the corrosion layer was formed by carbon, oxygen, copper, zinc, and lead. The corrosion layers were blue-colored with white crystals on the surface. Except those two colors, brown color was observed on corrosion layers, too. The plasma reactor was a quartz tube with outer copper electrodes and supplied by the RF source of 13.54 MHz. The reactive atomic hydrogen was formed in plasma discharge. This atomic hydrogen reacted with the corrosive layer containing oxygen. This reaction created an unstable OH radical, which emitted light in the region of 305–320 nm. This radiation was detected by the optical emission spectroscopy and it was applied as process monitoring quantity. Rotational temperature and intensity of OH radicals were determined from obtained data. The sample temperature was measured by thermocouple installed inside the sample volume. Rusted samples were treated by low-pressure low-temperature hydrogen plasma. 16 samples were treated at different conditions – plasma power was 100 W, 200 W, 300 W, and 400 W at continuous mode and pulse mode with duty cycle of 25 %, 50 %, and 75 %. The pressure was between 140–160 Pa at hydrogen flow rate of 50 sccm. Samples after plasmachemical treatment were grey colored with white crystals on their surface. Corrosion layers were removed by spatula. The corrosion layers of some samples were easy removable, some others were difficult. Energy Dispersive X-ray Microanalysis, which was carried out after the treatment of 2 selected samples (400 W, 50% pulse mode and 400 W, 75% pulse mode), showed different amounts of carbon, oxygen, copper, zinc, and lead compared to the rusted sample. Other elements in the treated layer were silicon, sulfur, chlorine, and fluorine.

Brass Corrosion Layers Reduction by Low-Pressure Low-Temperature Plasma
Řádková, Lucie ; Slavíček,, Pavel (referee) ; Zahoran,, Miroslav (referee) ; Krčma, František (advisor)
This thesis presents results of the corrosion layers removal which could be found on the archaeological artefact surfaces. The low pressure low temperature plasma reduction was used for this purpose. Brass samples were chosen for this study. Two different ways have been used to form model corrosion layers. Several sets of corrosion layers were prepared in laboratory in two different corrosion atmospheres, namely ammonia atmosphere and atmosphere of hydrochloric acid. These samples were placed into desiccator. Small quantities of sand were added to some sets of samples so samples with sandy incrustation were prepared. The corrosion layers had been usually formed during four weeks. The second way, which was used to prepare model corrosion layer, was the natural corrosion in soil or compost. In this case, the corrosion layers had been formed approximately 2 years. The samples were treated in the low pressure (150 Pa) cylindrical Quartz reactor (90 cm long and 9.5 cm in diameter) with a pair of external copper electrodes connected via the matching network to a radiofrequency generator (13.56 MHz). The flows of working gases were set by independent mass flow controllers. Whole system was continuously pumped by the rotary oil pump which was separated from the discharge reactor by liquid nitrogen trap with aluminium chips eliminating dust and reactive species from the gas flow. Each sample was placed on a glass holder at the reactor center. Plasma was generated in pure hydrogen or in mixture of hydrogen and argon. Total flow of working gas was 50 sccm. Different ratios of gas mixture were tested, the ratio 30 sccm hydrogen and 20 sccm argon flows was the best. RF discharge was used in a continuous and pulsed regime. Pulsed mode was carried out with various duty cycle at the frequency of 1000 Hz. There were two ways of temperature monitoring. The sample temperature during the treatment was monitored by a K-type thermocouple installed inside the sample in the first case. Thermometer optical probe was connected to the sample surface by a small stainless plate and allowed continuous sample temperature monitoring in the second way. Safe object temperature for copper and copper alloys is 100–120 °C. To avoid exceeding this temperature, power control or the duty cycle in pulse mode were automatically controlled if thermometer optical probe was used. Plasma chemical treatment is based on generation of reactive atomic hydrogen in plasma discharge. The main reactions during reduction were reactions between oxygen and chloride contained in the corrosion layer and the hydrogen ions and neutral atoms generated in the plasma. These reactions create an unstable OH radical, which emits light in the region of 306–312 nm. This radiation was detected by the optical emission spectroscopy using Ocean Optics HR4000 spectrometer with 2400 gr/mm grating. Data obtained from this method were used to calculate rotational temperatures and integral intensity of OH radicals that were used for the process monitoring. Corrosion layer was not completely removed during the reduction, but due to the reactions which occur in the plasma corrosion layer became brittle and after plasma chemical treatment can be removed easily. The SEM-EDS material analyses were carried out before and after treatment of some samples. Some samples were analysed by XRD analysis. EDS analysis showed that amount of oxygen and chloride was decreased, mainly at 400 W pulse mode.

Unconscious Religiousness from the Perspective of Selected Psyhological School
Řádková, Lucie ; Chlup, Radek (advisor) ; Halík, Tomáš (referee)
Currently, the popularity of spirituality is growing at the expense of institutional forms of religion. Spirituality is associated primarily with personal spiritual experiences, which can take various forms and draw from different sources. Bachelor thesis deals with the unconscious spirituality, which is defined as a hypothetical concept, on which we can conclude from various indirect expressions of human experience and behaviour. Indications of this concept can be found in the writings of the founder of analytical psychology C. G. Jung and the founder of existential analysis V. E. Frankl. Due to current shift of meaning of the concepts of spirituality and religiousness, the question is whether their theories can be applied to the contemporary situation and the concept of the unconscious spirituality. First are summarized current approaches and definitions of spirituality and religiousness. Attention is focused mainly on definitions of B. J. Zinnbauer and K. I. Pargament. Thesis continues with discussing basic notions and theoretical background of both psychological schools and also their approach to religion. These basic concepts are applied to the concept of unconscious spirituality with an attempt to further explanation. On the basis of the above mentioned application, both approaches are...
