iCCD Imaging of the Transition From Uncoupled to Coupled Mode in a Plasma Source for Biomedical and Materials Treatment Applications

摘要

Intense and energetic atmospheric plasma was achieved by jet-to-jet coupling using an array of plasma jets arranged in an axisymmetric structure. To highlight the effects of pulse repetition frequency, peak voltage and mass flow rate on the transition from a coupled mode to an uncoupled one, qualitative results coming from iCCD imaging of a nanopulsed like plasma source will be shown. Moreover, results on surface modifications and bacterial inactivation will be presented.
