Electrical and Optical Diagnostics of Plasma Jet Generated by Needle-plate Dielectric Barrier Discharge at Atmospheric Argon
An atmospheric argon plasma jet was obtained with a needle-plate dielectric barrier discharge system. The discharge gap was kept at 4 mm and the argon gas flow rate was 0.5 L/min. A test capacitor and a test resistance were connected in series in the circuit
and the discharge current and the transport charge were measured simultaneously. The average discharge power in a period of the applied voltage was calculated by Lissajous figure. The plasma jet was investigated spatially by optical emission spectroscopy
and the electron density was estimated by Stark broadening of Ar Ⅰ 696.54 nm. It is found that the discharge is asymmetric at different discharge phases
and more discharge current pulses are generated during the positive half cycle of the applied voltage. In addition
with the increasing of the applied voltage
the pulse number and the discharge power increase. Moreover
the plasma density is in an order of 10
15
cm
-3
. With the increasing of the distance from the needle tip
the electron density of the plasma jet decreases from 2.9410
15
cm
-3
to 2.2810
15
cm
-3
. The results show that the electric field plays an important role in the discharge current number and the spatial distribution of the electron density.
