Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Understanding the water vapor plasma is crucial for their potential applications of plasmas in biology. This study examines numerically the discharge dynamics and reacting chemistry of the gas-phase H2O plasmas. The temporal- and spatial-evolutions of species concentrations activated by a pulsed dc voltage application in a thin water vapor layer of three hundred µm are described. In an initial lower-density plasma (sub-microseconds time-scale), a broad range of neutral and ionic species are produced. In particular, ground-state atomic oxygen O(3P), atomic hydrogen H(1s), ground-state molecular oxygen O2(X), molecular hydrogen H2(X), hydroxyl radical OH(X) and cluster ions, for example H15O7+ and H15O7-. After the pulse termination, all excited and charged species immediately disappear, whereas the densities of hydrogen peroxide H2O2, hydroperoxyl HO2, ozone O3 and molecular singlet delta oxygen metastable O2(a1D) are even enhanced for sub-second time-scale.
