Abstract :
This paper reports on the dual dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma produced in helium at atmospheric pressure. Using a gated (20 ns) intensified charge-coupled detector, short exposure time images were recorded to investigate the time-space evolution of the DBD plasma. Experimental results proved that the surface nonhomogeneities are strongly reflected on the DBD plasma dynamic.
