Abstract

The radial evolution of dielectric barrier discharge in helium at atmospheric pressure was studied by taking end-view photographs of the discharge during one current pulse using a fast-gated intensified charge coupled device. The photographs were transformed into three-dimensional images that make the radial evolution of the discharge more visualized. It was found that the discharge begins with a weak Townsend discharge covering the entire electrode surface, develops much more rapidly in the central part where the electric field is higher, and spreads radially outward.
