Abstract :
A pulsed streamer discharge having a pulse duration of 5 ns was produced for nonthermal plasma processing techniques. The emission from the 5-ns pulsed streamer discharge produced by both positive and negative voltages in a coaxial electrode filled with atmospheric pressure air is reported.
