In the framework of the PLAS’STER project, a prototype based on a RF plasma confined inside sterilization pouches for the treatment of medical devices has been developed. In this work, optical emission spectroscopy was used to study the plasma emission from VUV/UV to IR wavelengths range. The results showed the production of strong UV radiation, radicals and atomic species depending on the proc...

We present the results of high resolution spectroscopy of the prototype polar AM Herculis observed with Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating. The X-ray spectrum contains hydrogen-like and helium-like lines of Fe, S, Si, Mg, Ne and O with several Fe L-shell emission lines. The forbidden lines in the spectrum are generally weak whereas the hydrogen-like lines are stronger suggesting that emis...

A 60 keV neutral Lithium beam system was designed and built up for beam emission spectroscopy measurement of edge plasma on KSTAR. The measurement will be the complementary of the heating beam based emission spectroscopy system which was built up in 2012, using the same observation system with different interference filters. The electron density and its fluctuation, thus the density distributio...

Recent developments in optical techniques for plasma diagnostics are critically reviewed. The primary emphasis is on plasma-induced emission and laser-induced fluorescence probes of radical and ionic concentrations and temperatures in low pressure discharges like those used in microelectronic fabrication. Other techniques such as optogalvanic, infrared, spontaneous and stimulated Raman, and mul...

Abstract As a plasma-based method, diaphragm discharge plasma, an underwater discharge, exhibits relatively high production rate and efficiency of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O ). This study aimed to characterize the energetic state plasma H mechanism by optical emission spectroscopy, evaluating excitation temperature, gas electron density, their temporal variations. The temperature was approximatel...

The operational characteristics of the experimental direct current plasma torch with water vapor stabilization of the arc discharge and diagnostics of generated plasma jet at the nozzle exhaust of the torch were studied in this research. The operation parameters of the torch are presented in terms of generalized thermal and electrical characteristics, which were compared with equations for stea...

The laser ablation fast pulse discharge plasma spectroscopy (LA-FPDPS) technique has demonstrated its validity to enhance the optical emission of laser-induced plasma. It has the potential to improve the performance of traditional LIBS measurement. Very recently, LA-FPDPS with a nanosecond pulse discharge circuit has been developed, which has a better capability to enhance the optical emission ...

We report a late-time “fireworks-like” particle emission from laser-produced graphite plasma during its evolution. Plasmas were produced using graphite targets excited with 1064 nm Nd: yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser in vacuum. The time evolution of graphite plasma was investigated using fast gated imaging and visible emission spectroscopy. The emission dynamics of plasma is rapidly changin...
