Abstract

The effects of amplitude modulation (AM) on an atmospheric pressure microwave argon jet is investigated using time-resolved optical emission spectroscopy, passive acoustic diagnostic and digital camera imaging. These techniques show significant changes of the effluent plasma properties with varying AM frequency. Operation in AM mode can enhance the plasma jet length or width over continuous-wave mode with the same mean power, which could be advantageous in many practical applications of plasma jets.
