Abstract
Plasma technology plays an important role in preparing and processing materials nowadays. This review focuses on the applications of non-thermal plasma (NTP) in the surface treatment and functionalization of materials, including the plasma sources for generating plasmas, NTP techniques and specific application fields. The plasma sources include inductively coupled plasma, capacitively coupled plasma, electron cyclotron resonance plasma, surface wave plasma, helicon wave plasma, atmospheric pressure plasma jet, and dielectric barrier discharge plasma. The NTP techniques for material surface treatment and functionalization include plasma surface grafting and polymerization, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, plasma assisted atomic layer deposition, plasma enhanced reactive ion etching, and plasma assisted atomic layer etching. Specific applications of plasma surface treatment and functionalization cover hydrophilic/hydrophobic surface modification, surface micro-nano processing, biological tissue surface treatment, and catalyst surfaces treatment. Finally, the application prospects and development trends of NTP technology for material surface treatment and functionalization are proposed.
