Atmospheric pressure plasma jet operated in argon was utilized to modify surfaces of glass, acrylic, and PTFE dielectrics. This paper describes the influence of the dielectric substrate on operation and properties of plasma. ...

Atmospheric pressure plasma jet was used to deposit polymer films from argon/air/acetylene mixture. Depending on the gas composition, three modes of operation were observed and characterized. The film deposited by a ...

Nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) are characterized by very reactive chemistry without the need of elevated temperatures. Also, plasma jets are capable of producing cold plasma plumes that are not spatially ...

A novel non-thermal atmospheric-pressure plasma jet source for endoscopic application is presented. Specific challenges in the endoscopic plasma source development, such as small dimensions, flexibility, operation in ...

Deposition of plasma polymers using atmospheric pressure plasma jet in mixture of argon, air and hexamethyldisilazane (HMDSN) was studied. The HMDSN monomer, used as film precursor, was carried to the jet nozzle by an ...

This work proposes an experimental configuration for the generation of a cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet at the downstream end of a long flexible plastic tube. The device consists of a cylindrical dielectric chamber ...

Plasmas have been frequently employed to modify material surface properties; however, many of these processes are not suitable for treating sensitive materials and biological objects that cannot withstand vacuum and/or ...

Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) are capable of generating cold plasma plumes that are not confined by electrodes, which makes them very attractive for bio-medical applications. In the present work, the ...
