Low-temperature and atmospheric pressure plasma for palm biodiesel hydrogenation

Low temperature atmospheric plasma for microbial decontamination

Low temperature Plasma (LTP) is a high-energy gas that is created when an electrical current is passed through a gas. Until recently, plasmas could only be created at relatively high temperatures in a vacuum and the use of plasma on sensitive materials such as human tissue, food products, medical devices and the packaging industry, was therefore impractical. However, over the last few years tec...

Plasma-Assisted Reduction of Graphene Oxide at Low Temperature and Atmospheric Pressure for Flexible Conductor Applications.

Reduction of graphene oxide (GO) at low temperature and atmospheric pressure via plasma-assisted chemistry is demonstrated. Hydrogen gas is continuously dissociated in a microplasma to generate atomic hydrogen, which flows from the remote plasma to thin films of GO deposited on a substrate. Direct interaction with ions and other energetic species is avoided to mitigate ion-induced sputter remov...

Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of zinc oxide at atmospheric pressure and low temperature

The plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of aluminum-doped zinc oxide has been demonstrated for the first time at 800Torr and under 250 1C. A film resistivity of 3 10 2 O cm and a transparency of 95% from 375 to 2500 nm was obtained for deposition at 20mTorr diethylzinc, 1.0 Torr CO2, 799Torr He, a TMAl/DEZn ratio of 1:100, 41W=cm RF power, and 225 1C. The average aluminum concentration in...

Turbulent jet flow generated downstream of a low temperature dielectric barrier atmospheric pressure plasma device

Flowing low temperature atmospheric pressure plasma devices have been used in many technological applications ranging from energy efficient combustion through to wound healing and cancer therapy. The generation of the plasma causes a sudden onset of turbulence in the inhomogeneous axisymmetric jet flow downstream of the plasma plume. The mean turbulent velocity fields are shown to be self-simil...
