摘要
Dielectric-barrier discharges (silent discharges) combine the ease of atmospheric pressure operation with nonequilibrium plasma conditions suited for many plasma chemical processes. In most gases at this pressure the discharge consists of a large number of randomly distributed short-lived microdischarges. Their properties are discussed in detail. Traditionally mainly used for industrial ozone production, dielectric-barrier discharges have found additional large volume applications in surface treatment, high-power CO2 lasers, excimer ultraviolet lamps, pollution control and, most recently, also in large-area flat plasma display panels. Future applications may include their use in greenhouse gas control technologies. Historical aspects, properties and applications of dielectric-barrier discharges are discussed.
