Results of research on a high-pressure hybrid radiofrequency/arc (RF/DC)
plasma jet for generation of gaseous O2(1Δ) are
presented. Our apparatus uses a fast mixing of hybrid Ar+He plasma jet of DC
electric arc sustained by an RF discharge with an injected neutral O2+He+NO
stream. A stable hybrid RF/DC discharge with a diffusive arc root near the
anode side was demonstrated experimentally. A non-equilibrium state of the arc
plasma was achieved in this way.
Basic
characteristics of this plasma jet system and its present applications are
presented.
