Ozone synthesis from oxygen in dielectric barrier discharges
TLDR
A comprehensive model of ozone generation in dielectric barrier discharges is presented in this paper, which combines the physical processes in the micro-discharges with the chemistry of ozone formation.Abstract:
A comprehensive model of ozone generation in dielectric barrier discharges is presented. The model combines the physical processes in the micro-discharges with the chemistry of ozone formation. It is based on an extensive reaction scheme including the major electronic and ionic processes. The importance of excited atomic and molecular states is demonstrated. Theoretical limits are given for the ozone production efficiency and the attainable ozone concentration. The most important parameters influencing the performance of ozonisers are identified. All theoretical predictions are compared to measured data.read more

The mechanism of spark breakdown in air at atmospheric pressure between a positive point and a plane. I. Experimental: Nature of the streamer track
TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of a point to plane discharge has been analyzed electrically and optically for centimetric gaps in air at atmospheric pressure, and it has been shown that for both steady and pulsed applied potentials the evolution always consists of the sequence: primary streamer, secondary streamers, dark space (more or less pronounced), transient arc.
