Comparison of analytical methods to determine the electron density and temperature for a laser-based atmospheric plasma jet

How dielectric, metallic and liquid targets influence the evolution of electron properties in a pulsed He jet measured by Thomson and Raman scattering

“…Electron properties are important in discharge development and in the process of sustaining a plasma. While the determination of the chemical composition and pathways in the complex oxygen-and nitrogen-based chemistry of atmospheric pressure discharges is frequently researched, there are only a handful of measurements of the electron properties in freely expanding atmospheric pressure plasma jets [19][20][21][22][23][24]. The experimental data on electron properties when a plasma jet interacts with a target is scarce [25].…”
