Modelling of a miniature microwave driven nitrogen plasma jet and comparison to measurements

Abstract: The MMWICP (miniature microwave ICP) is a new plasma source using the induction principle. Recently Klute et al presented a mathematical model for the electromagnetic fields and power balance of the new device. In this work the electromagnetic model is coupled with a global chemistry model for nitrogen, based on the chemical reaction set of Thorsteinsson and Gudmundsson and customized for the geometry of the MMWICP. The combined model delivers a quantitative description for a non-thermal plasma at a pressure o… Show more

“…This reaction set is described as the 'chemistry' for that plasma. However, assembling plasma chemistries is far from straightforward since even for relatively simple systems such as a microwave molecular nitrogen plasma some 15 species are necessary to characterise the plasma including: the seven lowest vibrationally excited states of the nitrogen molecule in the ground state N 2 (X 1 Σ + g )ν = 0 to 6, the metastable molecule N 2 (A 3 Σ + u ), the ground state atom N ( 4 S), two metastable atoms N ( 2 D) and N ( 2 P ) and five ionic species N , N + , N + 2 , N + 3 N + 4 [708]. With these 15 species more than 100 'reactions' may be necessary to define the inherent plasma chemistry, most of which have never been measured.…”

“…Nowadays, there are rapidly growing interest in developing 2D miniaturized plasma for surface modification and chemical vapor deposition. [20][21][22] Besides, there are also many studies on cold atmospheric plasma jets in the kHz and MHz frequency bands. In 2015, Robert et al developed a plasma gun for the study of helium and neon plasma propagation inside a dielectric tube.…”
