Dielectric barrier discharges: progress on plasma sources and on the understanding of regimes and single filaments
TL;DR: A review of the existing literature on DBDs can be found in this article, where the main part is devoted to the progress on the investigation of different aspects of breakdown and plasma formation with the focus on single filaments or microdischarges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guided ionization waves: Theory and experiments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the fundamental physics of the guided streamer-like structures, which are produced in cold atmospheric-pressure plasma jets, and introduce the basic theories and recent advances on the experimental and computational studies of guided streamers, in particular related to the propagation dynamics of ionization waves and various parameters of relevance to plasma streamers.
