Numerical study of the discharge properties of atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge by using 200 kHz/13.56 MHz excitations

Abstract: In this work involving an atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge system, the feasibility of independence control of key plasma parameters through strategic modulation of applied dual-frequency excitation sources is demonstrated. In this paper, a one-dimensional fluid model with semi-kinetic method has been used to investigate the discharge properties of atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge by using 200 kHz/13.56 MHz excitations. Bearing good consistency and coherence with experimental results, the electr… Show more

“…The efficient transport of the ions towards the cathode induces a high secondary electron emission increasing the metastable production and the ionization in the sheath. This was for example observed by applying a 50 kHz voltage to a 5 MHz DBD in Ar/NH3 mixture [20] or 200 kHz on 13.56 MHz [17]. In [20], for an LF voltage amplitude lower than some threshold, the increased ion loss to the cathode is not compensated by increased ionization and the plasma density thus decreases.…”

“…In the γ-mode, the atmospheric pressure discharge tends to localize and a DBD configuration is helpful to achieve a diffuse discharge [15], [16]. At atmospheric pressure, the transition from α-mode to γ-mode is observed in RF discharges [17]- [19] as well as in dual RF-LF discharges [20]. According to the literature, there are two distinct ways to reach the transition: either increase the electric field into the sheath by increasing the voltage amplitude [17] or increase the secondary electron emission by applying a low frequency voltage able to transport the ions to the cathode [20].…”

“…Most studies were focused on the use of high frequencies (HF) in the MHz range, for both excitation frequencies. However, some works combine kHz and MHz [26][27][28] frequencies. In [29,30], Liu et al superimpose an RF voltage onto an LF-DBD to modulate the electric field, which improves the uniformity of the discharge and increases the input power.…”

“…Since the 1990's, low-pressure dual-frequency plasmas have been developed. First studied for precursor dissociation rate control in deposition and etching processes, the association of a radio frequency (RF) and a microwave voltage [1][2][3][4][5][6], or two (and dissipated) by the plasma electrons, while maintaining a homogeneous discharge mode [30,[34][35][36][37][38]. Hence, the number densities of charged and reactive species significantly increase [40].…”
