Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric pressure plasma jet in Ar and Ar/H2O mixtures: Optical emission spectroscopy and temperature measurements
TL;DR: An atmospheric pressure plasma jet generated in Ar/water vapor mixtures has been investigated and the effect of water content on plasma properties has been studied as mentioned in this paper, where the gas temperature increases with the addition of water to feed gas from 620 K in pure Ar up to 1130 K for 0.76% H2O.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cracks, microcracks and fracture in polymer structures: Formation, detection, autonomic repair
Firas Awaja,Firas Awaja,Shengnan Zhang,Manoj Tripathi,Anton Nikiforov,Nicola M. Pugno,Nicola M. Pugno,Nicola M. Pugno +7 more
TL;DR: A review on the latest developments on the topics of cracks and micro-cracks initiation and propagation in polymer structures and the current techniques for detection and observation is discussed in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of an atmospheric helium plasma jet by relative and absolute optical emission spectroscopy
Qing Xiong,Qing Xiong,Anton Nikiforov,Anton Nikiforov,Manuel Á. González,Christophe Leys,Xinpei Lu +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, relative and absolute optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was performed for the helium and hydrogen lines for the determination of electron density through the Stark broadening mechanism, and a superposition fitting method composed of two component profiles corresponding to two different electron densities was developed to fit the investigated lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applications of Plasma-Liquid Systems: A Review.
TL;DR: A wide range of applications of plasma-liquid systems are brought together, including nanomaterial processing, water analytical chemistry, water purification, plasma sterilization, plasma medicine, food preservation and agricultural processing, power transformers for high voltage switching, and polymer solution treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
