The cathode diameter was 1.0 mm with a length of 2.0 ram. The electricM characteristics showed an abnormal glow mode. Spectroscopic measurements were carried out to examine the plasma and radicals. An analysis of the spectral profile of Ha at 656.3 nm enabled a derivation of the electron densities, namely 2× 1014 cm-3 (at 10 kPa) and 6× 1014 cm-3 (at 4 kPa) for the helium and air atmospheres, respectively, in the negative glow region. By comparing the observed OH radical spectra with those calculated by the simulation code L[FBASE, the gas temperature was deduced to be 900 K for 4 kPa of He at a discharge current of 50 mA.展开更多

A zero-dimensional chemical kinetic model is used to analyze the dissociation mechanism of CO2 in the bulk plasma region of a micro-hollow cathode discharge and is validated by comparisons with previous modeling and experimental results. The analysis of the chemical kinetic processes has shown that the electron impact dissociation and heavy species impact dissociation are dominant in different stages of the rnicro-hollow cathode discharge process for a given applied voltage. The analysis of energy consumption distributions under different applied voltages reveals that the main reason of the conversion improvement with the increase of the applied voltage is that more input energy is distributed to the heavy species impact dissociation.展开更多
