“…When the plasma jet enters the deionized water ( ), additional reactive species are generated by plasma–liquid interactions [ 25 , 26 , 27 ]. If the plasma jet is applied to an aqueous metal salt solution, plasma-generated reactive species will be affected by the reducing and scavenging activities of the plasma-activated medium [ 5 , 25 , 26 ]. Plasma-assisted reduction of metal ions can be employed for the synthesis of various metal nanoparticles, such as Ag, Au, Cu, Fe, and alloy nanoparticles [ 5 , 20 , 28 ].…”
