Due to potential applications in plasma medicine and surface modifications, atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) receives great attentions by scholars in the last decade. Recently, the plasma induced flow instability and ionization propagation along thin mixing layer have been proposed and studied experimentally and numerically [1,2]. In respect to plasma-surface interaction, the mixing...

The increasing use of atmospheric-pressure nanosecond pulsed plasma jets (APNPJs) in biomedical and environmental applications has motivated fundamental studies of the APNPJs including measurements of plasma properties such as the electron density and temperature. Quantifying these properties helps us to understand the roles of electrons during the initiation and development of the discharge,...

We report on the spatial and temporal distribution of electric field strength in a nanosecond atmospheric pressure helium plasma jet during the evolution of the discharge when impinging on an ITO glass substrate. We used a non-invasive optical spectroscopy technique based on polarization-dependent stark splitting and shifting of the He I at 492.19 nm (*$2p$ $\space ^1P^0 $ − $4d$ $\space...

Streamer discharge plasma, a type of non-thermal plasma, has received global attention as a source of reactive radicals, and is used for many applications such as ozone generation, decomposition of NOx and other gas pollutants, cleaning water, disinfection, deodorization, and medical applications. The tip of streamer discharge, known as the streamer head, in particular contributes to radical...

Streamers are the precursors to sparks, which have undesired effects in many high voltage applications. An example of this is a circuit breaker where high voltages are switched by physically opening the electrical circuit, thereby creating an arc. This arc, which short circuits the separated electrodes is extinguished by flushing with an electronegative gas. After extinguishing, the circuit...
