Abstract We have shown that measuring the surface tension is a useful scheme to examine the plasma-liquid interface in real-time. The surface tension was measured using a method based on the dispersion relation of an acoustic capillary wave excited on the water surface. The surface tension gradually increased with time, when the water surface was irradiated with the outside region of the spatial afterglow of an atmospheric-pressure plasma. The Marangoni effect associated with the localized increase in the surface tension was observed during the plasma irradiation. The surface tension decreased after the termination of the discharge. A correlation was found between the transient decrease in the surface tension and the variation of the OH radical density in the gas phase. No increase in the surface tension was observed in the solution containing a trapping agent for liquid-phase OH radicals. These experimental results suggest that OH radicals act to increase the surface tension. However, the behavior of the surface tension cannot be explained perfectly by considering only the action of OH radicals.

In this study, we report on the inactivation technique to apply the oral surgery by micro low-temperature and atmospheric-pressure plasma irradiation utilizing a capillary nozzle. Emission spectrum of the micro-plasma showed OH and O radical, which were affected inactivation of coliform. Vibration temperature of the micro-plasma with 7998 K was calculated from peak-intensity at emission due to N22nd positive system. Inactivation region was larger than plasma irradiation spot, and it was increasing with plasma irradiation time.
