Research Abstract |
The in-liquid plasma was generated by applying micowave radiation of 2.45GHz or high-frewuency irradiation of 27.12MHz. The temperature of a plasma generated by HF irradiation was higher than that generated by MW irradiation when the same electric power was applied to water. When the system pressure was increased from 100 hPa to 1013 hPa, the temperature of an in-liquid plasma in water generated by 2.45-GHz irradiation dropped from 4000 K to 3500 K, while that at 27.12 MHz dropped from 5000 K to about 4000 K. The plasma temperature in water flow also dropped from 4700 K to about 4400 K when the pressure decreased from 400 hPa to 100 hPa. The in-liquid plasma is generated in bubbles in the liquid. To clarify the generation mechanisum of in-liquid plasma and basic characteristics, the photography of the behavior of the plasma and bubbles was performed using a high-speed camera. The plasma repeatedly expanded and contracted in the same bubble until the departure of the bubble from the electrode. The discharge conformation of in-liquid plasma in water will evolve into the form of a steamer discharge like the observed corona discharge from a conventional needle-like electrode. The plasma electron density is calculated from the half-width of H_β line. The estimated electron density is (6.0±2.0) x10^<14>cm^<-3> at 27.12 MHz and (7.2±2.0) x10^<14>cm^<-3> at 2.45 GHz. The OH rotational temperature is about 3000 K. The non-equilibrium plasma can be maintained in spite of high pressure codttion due to the cooling effect by the cooling effect from the evaporation of the liquid itself. Finally, a supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) plasma process for fabricating one-dimensional tungsten oxide nanowires coated with amorphous carbon was presented.
