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...
The excitation and dissociation of CO2 admixed to argon and helium
atmospheric pressure radio frequency plasmas is analyzed. The absorbed plasma
power is determined by voltage and current probe measurements and the
excitation and dissociation of...
Hydrocarbon exhaust gases containing residual amounts of oxygen may pose
challenges for their conversion into value added chemicals downstream,
because oxygen may affect the process. This could be avoided by plasma
treating the exhaust to convert...
Nanosecond plasmas in liquids are an important method to trigger the water
chemistry for electrolysis or for biomedical applications in plasma medicine.
The understanding of these chemical processes relies on knowing the variation
of the...
