In this work, we investigate the production of highly oxidative species in solutions exposed to
a self-pulsed corona discharge in air. We examine how the properties of the target solution …

Understanding surface passivation arising from aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3) films is of
significant relevance for silicon-based solar cells and devices that require negligible surface …

High-temperature ESPs are proposed to improve energy efficiency and avoid damage to
downstream equipment in integrated gasification combined cycle and pressurized fluidized …

Recombination at the semiconductor surface continues to be a major limit to optoelectronic
device performance, in particular for solar cells. Passivation films reduce surface …

In the present work, the characteristics of direct-current (DC) discharge in a wire-cylinder
configuration at an ambient temperature range of 350–850° C were studied by analyzing …

Corona discharge is a self-sustained discharge of gaseous medium in inhomogeneous
electric fields, which often occurs on transmission lines and has some adverse effect on the …

Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) was a technique originally applied for the detection of trace
compounds. 1-3 IMS has been widely used to detect chemical warfare agents, 4-6 …

Electrical plasmas operating at atmospheric pressure are in widespread use for materials
processing and in related areas such as the characterisation of surfaces. The plasma …

In this work we have studied the occurrence of negatively charged clusters in a corona
discharge in atmospheric air at standard temperature and pressure. The discharge was …

The article discusses a study which explores the influence of smear matrix on detection
efficiencies of nitroaromatic compounds, nitroamines, and nitrate esters. The study uses …
