In recent years, the catalytic dry reforming of methane (DRM) has increasingly come into
academic focus. The interesting aspect of this reaction is seemingly the conversion of CO2 …

Conventional one-cathode/anode plasma spray guns are susceptible to aging. One reason
is the large power density, especially at the arc roots on the cathode tip and the anode wall …

The remote plasma deposition of hydrogenated amorphous carbon (aC: H) thin films is
investigated by in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). The dielectric function of the aC: H …

Atmospheric pressure plasmas can be used to provide a vacuum-atmosphere interface as
an alternative to differential pum**. Vacuum-atmosphere interface utilizing a cascade arc …

A supersonically expanding argon cascaded arc plasma, with different amounts of hydrogen
added (0, 0.7, and 1.4 vol% H 2), was studied using Thomson-Rayleigh scattering and …

This paper deals with the behavior of an electron gas in an expanding plasma jet in argon.
From the measurements, obtained using a high-quality Thomson-Rayleigh scattering …

Because of the broad range of present and potential industrial applications of thermal
plasma technology, there is no universal plasma torch design that fits all. These can vary …

Langmuir-probe measurements in a hydrogen-containing plasma jet show anomalous fast
recombination that cannot be attributed to atomic processes such as radiative or three …

The operation of a cascaded arc hydrogen plasma source was experimentally investigated
to provide an empirical basis for the scaling of this source to higher plasma fluxes and …

This paper concerns the behaviour of heavy particles in an argon plasma expanding from a
cascaded arc. The plasma is characterized using high-accuracy spatially resolved Thomson …
