In this paper, we give an overview of these plasma sources and highlight the recent development of the atmospheric-pressure plasma jet. First, we consider the effect of pressure on the …

In a plasma jet, a gaseous propellant (e.g., hydrazine, hydrogen) is heated to high temperature by passing it through a high-current electric arc (Comae, 1959).

In the present work, we aim to provide an educational review on the interactions between APPJs and surfaces, focusing on the physical, chemical and biological processes in both fundamental …

Cold atmospheric-pressure plasma jet generates rich reactive species including reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species with gas temperature close to or at room temperature, …

The physics of plasma jets is described for jet systems of increasing complexity, showing the effect of the different components (tube, electrodes, gas mixing in the plume, target) of the jet …

Here, we introduce an atmospheric-pressure plasma jet de-vice that generates plasma in an air environment with the potential for versatile surface modi fication.

In the metal working industry, new and faster methods of welding and cutting have been developed using plasma jets and arcs. Cutting speeds up to five times that of the oxy- …
