Abstract
This paper explores the effects of tube shape and pin electrode diameter on the plume generation and electrical characteristics in atmospheric pressure helium plasma jets generated from a centered-pin electrode inside a dielectric tube. The quartz-covered (or bare) pin electrode and different shapes of the dielectric tube (straight cylinder or conical shape) are employed and their effects are investigated. Optical emission spectra are obtained at different positions along the coaxial direction to determine the axial distributions of the electron excitation temperature for the straight cylinder and conical jets. The rotational temperatures for the both jets are also compared.
