Charge neutralisation of microparticles by pulsing a low-pressure shielded spatial plasma afterglow

B. van Minderhout et al.

Summary: This paper demonstrates the effective neutralization of microparticles in the spatial plasma afterglow of an inductively coupled plasma, using a grounded mesh grid as a key element in the experiments. The neutralization achieved is crucial for the further development of plasma-assisted contamination control strategies and various applications such as colorimetric sensing and medical applications.

Modeling nanoparticle charge distribution in the afterglow of non-thermal plasmas and comparison with measurements

Vikram Suresh et al.

Summary: Particle charging in the afterglows of non-thermal plasmas is modeled by incorporating particle-ion collision rate constant models and scaling analysis, to extend the range of applicability. Validation of the developed collision rate constant models is done by comparing predictions of particle charge against measured values in past experiments, showing excellent agreement within a certain range. The influence of ion/electron concentration and gas temperature in the afterglow on particle charge is investigated, with predictions generally in qualitative agreement with measurements.

Inductively coupled nonthermal plasma synthesis of aluminum nanoparticles

Chad A. Beaudette et al.

Summary: By using an inductive nonthermal plasma reactor fed with aluminum trichloride and Ar, single-crystal aluminum nanoparticles were synthesized with different reactor conditions affecting properties like oxide shell thickness, particle mono-dispersity, and particle size. Large quantities of Ar relative to AlCl3, short residence times, and high pressures are needed to form 10-20 nm Al particles with low geometric standard deviations.

Particle charge distributions in the effluent of a flow-through atmospheric pressure low temperature plasma

Eric Husmann et al.

Summary: The study investigates the charging behavior and charge distribution of particles after leaving an atmospheric pressure plasma, showing that particles become less negatively charged and even switch to net-positive charge downstream. Results indicate that particle charge is highly dependent on size and flow velocity, with negligible dependence on work function. Simulation suggests that larger particles acquire a greater magnitude of charge at the same flow velocity, due to differences in ion and electron convective loss rates.

Charge of clustered microparticles measured in spatial plasma afterglows follows the smallest enclosing sphere model

B. van Minderhout et al.

Summary: The research provides experimental evidence that the charge on non-spherical microparticles in low-pressure plasma should be based on the capacitance of the smallest enclosing sphere rather than its geometrical capacitance. By precisely measuring the size, mass, and charge of single particles and two-particle clusters, the study shows that the capacitance of the smallest enclosing sphere accurately predicts the ratio of induced charges on doublets and singlets in the plasma-afterglow.
