In this review we describe a transient type of gas discharge which is commonly called a
streamer discharge, as well as a few related phenomena in pulsed discharges. Streamers …

Non-equilibrium atmospheric-pressure plasmas have recently become a topical area of
research owing to their diverse applications in health care and medicine, environmental …

Dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) are plasmas generated in configurations with an
insulating (dielectric) material between the electrodes which is responsible for a self-pulsing …

The kINPen® plasma jet was developed from laboratory prototype to commercially available
non-equilibrium cold plasma jet for various applications in materials research, surface …

Plasma medicine is a relatively new field that grew from research in application of low-
temperature (or cold) atmospheric plasmas in bioengineering. One of the most promising …

This paper reviews optical measurements of reactive species in atmospheric-pressure
nonthermal plasmas: streamer discharge, dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), plasma jet, and …

The growing demand for food represents an enormous problem for agri-food industries. It is
driven by global population growth on the one hand and constrained by greenhouse gas …

An update to the article “Dielectric-barrier Discharges: Their History, Discharge Physics, and
Industrial Applications” by Ulrich Kogelschatz from 2003 is given. The research and …

Fungal diseases seriously affect agricultural production and the food industry. Crop
protection is usually achieved by synthetic fungicides, therefore more sustainable and …

Power modulated microwave plasma jet operating in argon at atmospheric pressure was
studied by spatio-temporally resolved optical emission spectroscopy (OES) in order to clarify …
