Abstract

The ozone production rate as a function of gas pressure and electric field strength is measured in a synthetic air dc low-current non-self-sustained discharge. The reduced field strength, E/N, is varied in the range 160–520 Td and the pressure, p, in the range 6.5–162 kPa. The ozone generation efficiency, i.e. the amount of ozone produced per energy unit absorbed by electrons in the discharge in air, is measured for the first time. The results obtained are compared with theoretical calculations of other authors.
