Operation of a Three-Electrode Reactor with Different Electrode Bias Potential Configurations

The three-electrode plasma reactor for the treatment of polluted gases combines a dielectric-barrier discharge with a remote third electrode, designed to enhance streamer propagation in a relatively large region. In this paper, experimental studies of the electrical magnitudes of the discharge for d...
