Atmospheric pressure plasmas in argon are of particular interest due to the production of
highly excited and reactive species enabling numerous plasma-aided applications. In this …

Diffuse dielectric barrier discharges in atmospheric-pressure helium can be sustained over a
wide range of excitation frequencies (from, but not restricted, 25 kHz to 15 MHz). The aim of …

Different diagnostic techniques are used to monitor the dynamics of electrons and Ar*(1s 5)
metastable atoms in the active plasma phase and in the afterglow of a capacitively coupled …
