abstract = {This article will review two popular methods of laser diagnostics in a plasma–liquid system and generally in low-temperature plasmas. These are Thomson scattering and laser-induced fluorescence. Setting up the plasma–liquid interaction experiment will be described while stressing the important points for laser diagnostics and maintaining conditions for correct and repeatable measurements. I will discuss the caveats that are encountered when measuring an inherently unstable and collisional system, such as plasma interacting with the liquid and how these challenges impact that data analysis and calibration efforts for these two-diagnostic approaches.},

abstract = {Nonthermal plasmas in contact with liquids have been shown to generate a variety of reactive species capable of initiating reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions at the electrochemically active plasma–liquid interface. In conventional electrochemical cells, selective redox chemistry is achieved by controlling the reduction potential at the solid electrode–electrolyte interface by applying a bias via an external circuit. In the case of plasma–liquid systems, an analogous means of tuning the reduction potential near the interface has not clearly been identified. When treated as a floating surface, the liquid is expected to adopt a net negative charge to balance the flux of hot electrons and relatively cold positive ions. The reduction potential near the plasma–liquid interface is hypothesized to be proportional to the floating potential, which can be approximated using an analytical model provided the plasma parameters are known. Herein, we present a framework for correlating the electron density and electron temperature of a noble gas plasma jet to the reduction potential near the plasma–liquid interface. The plasma parameters were acquired for an argon atmospheric plasma jet in contact with an aqueous solution by means of laser Thomson scattering. The reduction potential was determined using identical reference electrodes to measure the potential difference between the plasma–liquid interface and bulk solution. Interestingly, the measured reduction potentials near the plasma–liquid interface were found to be in good agreement with the model-predicted values determined using the plasma parameters obtained from the Thomson scattering experiments.},

abstract = {Ionization gas sensors are ubiquitous tools that can monitor desired gases or detect abnormalities in real time to protect the environment of living organisms or to maintain clean and/or safe environment in industries. The sensors' working principle is based on the fingerprinting of the breakdown voltage of one or more target gases using nanostructured materials. Fundamentally, nanomaterial-based ionization-gas sensors operate within a large framework of gas breakdown physics; signifying that an overall understanding of the gas breakdown mechanism is a crucial factor in the technological development of ionization gas sensors. Moreover, many studies have revealed that physical properties of nanomaterials play decisive roles in the gas breakdown physics and the performance of plasma-based gas sensors. Based on this insight, this review provides a comprehensive description of the foundation of both the gas breakdown physics and the nanomaterial-based ionization-gas-sensor technology, as well as introduces research trends on nanomaterial-based ionization gas sensors. The gas breakdown is reviewed, including the classical Townsend discharge theory and modified Paschen curves; and nanomaterial-based-electrodes proposed to improve the performance of ionization gas sensors are introduced. The secondary electron emission at the electrode surface is the key plasma–surface process that affects the performance of ionization gas sensors. Finally, we present our perspectives on possible future directions.},

abstract = {The spectrum of coherent Thomson scattering (CTS) induced by a periodic ponderomotive perturbation in a low-density low temperature plasma is considered. The analysis is performed for the case when the period of the resulting optical lattice is less than the Debye screening length in the plasma by solving an electron Boltzmann equation, where the total force is the sum of the periodic force due to the optical lattice and the electrostatic force due to self-consistent electric field in the plasma. An analogy between the CTS spectra calculated here and coherent Rayleigh scattering spectra in a neutral gas is established. For relatively low intensity for the optical lattice, the calculated CTS spectra are nearly Gaussian with widths slightly wider than the incoherent Thomson widths. We demonstrate that at higher intensities the line shape narrows and saturates to a width approximately half of that found at low lattice intensities. The proportionality of the spectral width to the square root of the electron temperature allows one to extract the electron temperature from the saturated spectra. Possible application of
CTS for remote measuring the electron temperature in plasma is discussed.},

abstract = {In the atmospheric pressure anodic carbon arc, ablation of the anode serves as a feedstock of carbon for production of nanomaterials. It is known that the ablation of the graphite anode in this arc can have two distinctive modes with low and high ablation rates. The transition between these modes is governed by the power deposition at the arc attachment to the anode and depends on the gap between the anode and the cathode electrodes. Probe measurements combined with optical emission spectroscopy are used to analyze the voltage drop between the arc electrodes. These measurements corroborated previous predictions of a positive anode sheath (i.e. electron attracting sheath) in this arc, which appears in both low and high ablation modes. However, the positive anode sheath was determined to be ∼3–8 V, significantly larger than ∼0.5 V predicted by previous models. Thus, there are apparently other physical mechanisms not considered by these models that force the anode sheath to be electron attracting in both ablation regimes. Another key result is a relatively low electron temperature (∼0.6 eV) obtained from OES using a collisional radiative model. This result partially explains a higher arc voltage (∼20 V) required to sustain the arc current of 50–70 A than predicted by existing simulations of this discharge.},

abstract = {There is an urgent need for disinfection and sterilization devices accessible to the public that can be fulfilled by innovative strategies for using cold atmospheric pressure plasmas. Here, we demonstrate a successful novel combination of a flexible printed circuit design of a dielectric barrier discharge (flex-DBD) with an environmentally safe chemical reagent for surface decontamination from bacterial contaminants. Flex-DBD operates in ambient air, atmospheric pressure, and room temperature without any additional gas flow at a power density not exceeding 0.5 W/cm2. The flex-DBD activation of a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution results in the reduction in the bacterial load of a surface contaminant of > 6log10 in 90 s, about 3log10 and 2log10 better than hydrogen peroxide alone or the flex-DBD alone, respectively, for the same treatment time. We propose that the synergy between plasma and hydrogen peroxide is based on the combined action of plasma-generated OH· radicals in the hydrogen peroxide solution and the reactive nitrogen species supplied by the plasma effluent. A scavenger method verified a significant increase in OH· concentration due to plasma treatment. Novel in-situ FTIR absorption spectra show the presence of O3, NO2, N2O, and other nitrogen species. Ozone dissolving in the H2O2 solution can effectively generate OH· through a peroxone process. The addition of the reactive nitrogen species increases the disinfection efficiency of the hydroxyl radicals and other oxygen species. Hence, plasma activation of a low concentration hydrogen peroxide solution, using a hand-held flexible DBD device results in a dramatic improvement in disinfection.},

abstract = {The chemical functionalization of two-dimensional materials is an effective method for tailoring their chemical and electronic properties with encouraging applications in energy, catalysis, and electronics. One exemplary 2D material with remarkable properties, graphene, can be exploited for hydrogen storage and large on/off ratio devices by hydrogen termination. In this work, we describe a promising plasma- based method to provide high hydrogen coverage on graphene. A low pressure (~10 mtorr) discharge generates a fine-tunable low-temperature hydrogen-rich plasma in the applied radial electric and axial magnetic fields. Post-run characterization of these samples using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrates a higher hydrogen coverage, 35.8%, than the previously re- ported results using plasmas. Plasma measurements indicate that with the applied magnetic field, the density of hydrogen atoms can be more than 10 times larger than the density without the magnetic field. With the applied electric field directed away from the graphene substrate, the flux of plasma ions to- wards this substrate and the ion energy are insufficient to cause measurable damage to the treated 2D material. The low damage allows a relatively long treatment time of the graphene samples that con- tributes to the high coverage obtained in these experiments.},

It is assumed that at the stage of inflation, multiple breaks of the metric occur with the formation of areas of physical vacuum in which the generation of matter occurs. The proposed model explains the large-scale isotropy of the universe without ultrafast inflationary expansion and the emergence of a large-scale cellular (cluster) structure, as a result of the development of cavitation ruptures of a false vacuum. It is shown that the cavitation model can be considered on par with (or as an alternative to) the generally accepted inflationary multiverse model of the Big Bang.},

abstract = {The dynamics of positive and negative streamers is numerically simulated in atmospheric pressure air in the range of parameters corresponding to the streamer deceleration and termination in the middle of the discharge gap. A detailed comparison with experiments in air at constant and variable density demonstrates good agreement between the 2D simulation results and the observations. It is shown that positive and negative streamers behave in radically different ways when decelerating and stopping. When the head potential drops, the negative streamer transits to the mode in which the propagation is due to the forward electron drift. In this case, the radius of the ionization wave front increases, whereas the electric field at the streamer head decreases further and the streamer stops. Its head diameter continues to increase due to the slow drift of free electrons in the residual under-breakdown field. On the contrary, the only advancement mechanism for a positive streamer with a decreasing head potential is a decrease in the effective radius of the ionization wave, leading to a local increase in the electric field. This mechanism makes it possible to compensate for the reduction in the efficiency of gas photoionization at small head diameters. A qualitative 1D model is suggested to describe streamer deceleration and stopping for different discharge polarities. Estimates show that, during positive streamer stopping, the local electric field at the streamer head can exceed the threshold corresponding to the transition of electrons to the runaway mode when the head potential (relative to the surrounding space) decreases to ∼1.2 kV in atmospheric pressure air. In this case, pulsed generation of a beam of runaway electrons directed into the channel of a stopping positive streamer can occur. The energy of the formed pulsed electron beam depends on the intensity of photoionization in front of the streamer head. This energy can vary from 700 V (when increasing the photoionization rate by a factor of 10 with respect to the value in atmospheric pressure air) to 2.6 kV (when decreasing the photoionization rate by a factor of 1000). It is possible that this behavior of decelerating positive streamers can explain the observed bursts of x-ray radiation during the streamer propagation in long air gaps.},

abstract = {In this work, solid targets made from boron and boron nitride (BN) materials are ablated by a nanosecond pulsed laser at sub-atmospheric pressures of nitrogen and helium gases. The excited species in the ablation plume from the target are probed by spatiotemporally resolved optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The evaluation of the chemical composition of the plasma plume revealed that for both boron-rich targets, emission from BN molecules is always observed in nitrogen-rich environments. In addition, BN molecules are also present when ablating a boron nitride target in a helium gas environment, an indication that BN molecules in the plume may originate from the solid target. Furthermore, the ablation of the BN target features emission of B2N molecules, regardless of the pressure and surrounding gas. These results suggest that the ablation of the BN target is more favorable for the generation of complex molecules containing boron and nitrogen species and possibly hint that BN is also more favorable feedstock for high-yield BN nanomaterial synthesis. Plasma parameters such as the electron temperature (peak value of 1.3 eV) and density (peak value of 2 × 10^18 cm^−3) were also investigated in this work in order to discuss the chemical dynamics in the plume.},

These formulas can be used to predict diameter and dispersion variation with process parameters, such as the initial primary constituents' concentration or cooling rate. It is also possible to use them as an input to the coagulation stage, without the need to compute complex cluster generation during the nucleation burst. We compared our results with a nodal code (NGDE) and got excellent agreement.},

abstract = {In order to study the properties of short carbon arcs, a self-consistent model was implemented into a CFD code ANSYS-CFX. The model treats the transport of heat and electric current in the plasma and electrodes in a coupled manner and accounts for gas convection in the chamber. Multiple surface processes at the electrodes are modeled, including the formation of space-charge limited sheaths, ablation and deposition of carbon, and emission and absorption of radiation and electrons. The simulations show that the arc is constricted near the cathode and anode front surfaces, leading to the formation of electrode spots. The cathode spot is a well-known phenomenon, and mechanisms of its formation were reported elsewhere. However, the anode spot formation mechanism discovered in this work was not previously reported. We conclude that the spot formation is not related to plasma instability, as commonly believed in the case of constricted discharge columns, but rather occurs due to the highly nonlinear nature of heat balance in the anode. We additionally demonstrate this property with a reduced anode heat transfer model. We also show that the spot size increases with the arc current. This anode spot behavior was also confirmed in our experiments. Due to the anode spot formation, a large gradient of carbon gas density occurs near the anode, which drives a portion of the ablated carbon back to the anode at its periphery. This can consequently reduce the total ablation rate. Simulation results also show that the arc can reach the local chemical equilibrium state in the column region, while the local thermal equilibrium state is not typically achieved for experimental conditions. It shows that it is important to account for different electron and gas temperatures in the modeling of short carbon arcs.

abstract = {Ion beam charge neutralization by electron injection is a complex kinetic process. Recent experiments show that the resulting self-potential of the ion beam after neutralization by plasma is much lower than the temperature of plasma electrons [Stepanov et al., Phys. Plasmas 23, 043113 (2016)], indicating that kinetic effects are important and may affect the neutralization of the ion beam. We performed a numerical study of the charge neutralization process of an ion beam making use of a two-dimensional electrostatic particle-in-cell code. The results show that the process of charge neutralization by electron injection is composed of two stages. During the first stage, the self-potential of the beam is higher than the temperature of injected electrons (Te/e) and all injected electrons are captured by the ion beam. During the second stage, hot electrons escape from the ion beam and the beam self-potential (φ) decreases because cold electrons slowly accumulate resulting in the beam self-potential φ to become much lower than Te/e in agreement with previous experimental observations at Princeton Advanced Teststand. We also determined that the resulting φ scales as φ∼Te⎯⎯⎯⎯√, in agreement with previous experimental observations from Gabovich's group. In addition, the results show that the transverse position of the electron source has a great impact on ion beam neutralization. A slight shift of the electron source as relevant to the ion thrusters leads to a large increase in the beam self-potential because of an increase in potential energy of injected electrons.},

The simulation results show that electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs) can be robustly generated in the neutralization process and last for a long time (for more than 30 μs) and therefore, ESWs can strongly affect the neutralization process. The ESWs propagate along the axis of the ion beam and reflect from the beam boundaries. The simulations clearly show that two ESWs can pass through each other with only small changes in amplitude. Partial exchange of trapped electrons in collisions of two ESWs is observed in the simulations and can explain interaction during collisions of two ESWs. Coalescence of two ESWs is also observed.
