  2. Dielectric barrier discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_barrier_discharge

    Dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) is the electrical discharge between two electrodes separated by an insulating dielectric barrier. Originally called silent (inaudible) discharge and also known as ozone production discharge [1] or partial discharge, [2] it was first reported by Ernst Werner von Siemens in 1857. [3]

  3. Partial discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_discharge

    In electrical engineering, partial discharge (PD) is a localized dielectric breakdown (DB) (which does not completely bridge the space between the two conductors) of a small portion of a solid or fluid electrical insulation (EI) system under high voltage (HV) stress.

  4. Atmospheric-pressure plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric-pressure_plasma

    Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is one of the main ways to produce low-temperature plasmas in a non-equilibrium condition at atmospheric pressure. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Additionally, there have been reports stating that the Atmospheric-pressure glow discharge, when powered by a low-frequency (10-100 kHz) source, needs a dielectric barrier on one side ...

  5. Electrical breakdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_breakdown

    Electrical breakdown in an electric discharge showing the ribbon-like plasma filaments from a Tesla coil.. In electronics, electrical breakdown or dielectric breakdown is a process that occurs when an electrically insulating material (a dielectric), subjected to a high enough voltage, suddenly becomes a conductor and current flows through it.

  6. Plasma-activated bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma-activated_bonding

    The usage of dielectric barrier discharge enables a stable plasma at atmospheric pressure. To avoid sparks, a dielectric has to be fixed on one or both electrodes. The shape of the electrode is similar to the substrate geometry used to cover the entire surface. The principle of an AP-activation with one dielectric barrier is shown in figure ...

  7. Electric discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_discharge

    In electromagnetism, an electric discharge is the release and transmission of electricity in an applied electric field through a medium such as a gas (i.e., an outgoing flow of electric current through a non-metal medium).

  8. Corona discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_discharge

    A corona discharge is an electrical discharge caused by the ionization of a fluid such as air surrounding a conductor carrying a high voltage. It represents a local region where the air (or other fluid) has undergone electrical breakdown and become conductive, allowing charge to continuously leak off the conductor into the air.

  9. Plasma actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_actuator

    The characteristics of a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator when exposed to an unsteady flow generated by a shock tube is examined. A Study shows that not only is the shear layer outside of the shock tube affected by the plasma but the passage of the shock front and high-speed flow behind it also greatly influences the ...
