Simultaneous optical, spectroscopic, and electrical measurements in the region of the arc anode attachment of the water-argon plasma torch are presented. A movement of the arc attachment along the anode surface together with its restrike mode is monitored. Temporal evolution of temperature during one cycle of the restrike mode is obtained in three different axial positions in the plasma column. Resulting temperature profiles show how the position of the arc attachment influences the plasma properties.

In this study, we would like to develop a portable round argon atmospheric-pressure plasma jet (APPJ) which can be applied for general use of bacteria inactivation. The APPJ was characterized electrically and optically, which include measurements of absorption power, gas temperature and optical properties of plasma generated species. Measured OH* number density at 5 mm downstream was estimated to be 5.8 × 1015 cm−3 and the electron density and electron temperature were estimated to be 2.4 × 1015 cm−3 and 0.34 eV, respectively, in the discharge region. This APPJ was demonstrated to effectively inactivate E. coli within seconds of treatment, which shows its great potential in the future use of general bacteria inactivation and sterilization.
