Abstract
Cold atmospheric plasma has been successfully applied in the field of biomedicine. One of the most pressing challenge is the development of plasma devices, for example, large-area application in wound healing. Surface micro-discharge device is one new type of dielectric barrier discharge design with desirable plasma features, such as homogeneity over a large surface area. In this study, two devices with electrode width varying from 0.25 to 1.00 mm were fabricated. The contribution focuses on the impact of the hexagonal mesh electrode width on the degree of uniformity of hydroxyl (OH) radicals in the downstream region and the OH transport efficiency. Accordingly, OH radicals were measured as an indicator by laser-induced fluorescence. Steady state measurements of OH perpendicular to the dielectric surface demonstrated that narrow electrode width could not offer a high degree of uniformity, and will reduce the transport efficiency of reactive species.
