Nonequilibrium Plasmas Generated by Dielectric Barrier Discharges at Atmospheric Pressure

“…2(c), the microdischarge channels continue increasing, with the plasma becoming more homogeneous. This is in agreement with the work that we reported [2]. It is also found that the brightness of the discharge region increases with the deposited power, due to the augmentation of the microdischarge channels.…”

Atmospheric Plasma Deposition Process: A Versatile Tool for the Design of Tunable Siloxanes‐Based Plasma Polymer Films

“…These discharges are usually generated in the space between two parallel electrodes, at least one of these being covered with a dielectric layer. This dielectric barrier allows the control of the charge, the energy and the distribution of the micro‐discharges over the entire electrode 17, 18. During the process, the precursor is diluted in a carrier gas (usually helium, argon, or nitrogen) and injected between the two plates to manufacture a plasma film.…”

Effects of Airflows on Nanosecond Pulsed Dielectric Barrier Discharge at Atmospheric Pressure

“…However, with a bigger discharge gap, the overvoltage is not sufficient to generate a lot of microdischarges as at a smaller discharge gap, so the filamentary discharge is developed. Li et al [30] and Tang et al [35] had reported that there will be more space charges produced in the discharge channel than in neighborhoods in filamentary discharge. In this case, the space charge distribution is not uniform, which will be significantly improved when the airflow is blown into the discharge gap, so the more uniform discharge can be obtained.…”
