Abstract

Comparative studies of generation of cold plasma jet of atmospheric pressure in helium when excited by sinusoidal voltage and unipolar positive pulses at 2-6 kV for medical applications have been conducted. It is shown that the achieved parameters are identical, but the absence of the effect of frequency self-organization of streamer breakdown leading to irregularity in streamer propagation under pulse excitation makes it preferable in biophysical experiments. A limiting factor for plasma jet exposure is the achievable target temperature, which can be reduced by limiting the duration of the current.
