NO synthesis using plasma catalysis is analyzed in a parallel-plate
atmospheric pressure RF plasma from N$_2$/O$_2$ admixed to helium exposed to
Fe and Pt catalysts on a SiO$_2$ support. The NO$_x$ species are measured by
Fourier-transform...
Dielectric barrier discharges (DBD) are often used for gas conversion, such
as carbon dioxide splitting, volatile organic compound removal or ozone
generation. Due to the tiny plasma filaments in DBD discharges, efficient
mixing of the gas flow...
Nanosecond plasmas in liquids are being used for water treatment,
electrolysis or biomedical applications. The exact nature of these very
dynamic plasmas and most important their ignition physics are strongly
debated. The ignition itself may be...
High power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) plasmas produce a very
energetic growth flux for the synthesis of thin films with superior
properties. High power densities in the range of a few kW/cm2 are applied to
a metal target electrode in...
