Atmospheric pressure microwave plasma system with ring waveguide
Some scientists used waveguide as the cavity to produce a plasma jet,while large volume microwave plasma was relatively hard to get in atmospheric pressure.However,a few research institutes have already developed devices to generate large volume of atmospheric pressure microwave plasma,such as CYRANNUS and SLAN series,which can be widely applied.In this paper,present a microwave plasma system with ring waveguide to excite large volume of atmospheric pressure microwave plasma,plot curves on theoretical disruption electric field of some working gases,emulate the cavity through software,measure the power density to validate and show the appearance of microwave plasma. At present,large volume of argon and helium plasma have already been generated steadily by atmospheric pressure microwave plasma system.This research can build a theoretical basis of microwave plasma excitation under atmospheric pressure and will be useful in study of the device.
