Non-thermal atmospheric pressure HF plasma source: generation of nitric oxide and ozone for bio-medical applications

Abstract: A new miniature high-frequency (HF) plasma source intended for bio-medical applications is studied using nitrogen/oxygen mixture at atmospheric pressure. This plasma source can be used as an element of a plasma source array for applications in dermatology and surgery. Nitric oxide and ozone which are produced in this plasma source are well-known agents for proliferation of the cells, inhalation therapy for newborn infants, disinfection of wounds and blood ozonation.Using optical emission spectroscopy, micropho… Show more

“…N x O y , O 3 , O − 2 , OH) (Uhm et al, 2006). Obtainable concentrations are 2750 ppm for NO and 400 ppm for ozone (Kühn et al, 2010). By reducing the MW power down to 85 W and less the discharge operates at nearly room temperature (300 K) and thus is capable for direct treatment of thermolabile materials (Shimizu et al, 2008).…”

“…It turned out that the average discharge current and the average discharge-burning voltage practically do not depend on the gas flow G(air). Correspondingly, the curves in It is seen that the content of NO in the output gas is higher than that of NO 2 which is typically for the generation of nitrogen oxides in the gas discharges [43]- [45]. Prima facie, decreasing [NO] with the gas flow G(air) seems to be evident since, in the exit chamber, we dilute the nitrogen oxides with the air.…”

“…The flows of nitrogen oxides and ozone generated in the plasma jets are applied for disinfection of wounds and skin wound healing [45]. Correspondingly, different types of gas discharge in air and oxygen/nitrogen flow have been proposed for production of these particles, for example, a high-current spark discharge in a regime pulse-repetition rate [43], [44], a gliding arc discharge [46], and a microwave discharge powered by a frequency of 2.4 GHz [45].…”
