A Small Microwave Plasma Source for Long Column Production without Magnetic Field

Er3+ ions luminescence in non-fused silicate glasses fabricated by SPCVD

“…Reagents mixture at a pressure of 0.5 Torr is fed through a silica substrate tube, 20 mm in diameter and 2 mm wall thickness, towards a stationary plasma column sustained at the expense of microwave power of the electromagnetic waves launched to plasma [8]. Entering the discharge region, there occur oxygen and halogenide molecules dissociation and oxide molecules formation.…”

Travelling-wave-sustained discharges

“…Discovered in 1974 by Moisan et al [1,2] as new plasma sources, the travelling-wave-sustained discharges [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] have generated since then an increasing interest in the gas-discharge physics, both theoretically and experimentally and also regarding the gas-discharge applications.…”

Aerosol Particle Analysis Using Microwave Plasma Torch

“…11- 13 Perkins and Long atomized chemical species present in solutions using MIP and then detected fluorescence in atomized elements excited by a hollow cathode lamp or a Xe arc lamp. 14 Ideally, an atomizing device for AES or AFS (atomic fluorescence spectrometry) should have a high quantum efficiency and long retention time.…”
