ICCD Camera Imaging of Discharges in Porous Ceramics

The microdischarges generated inside porous ceramics represent a novel way to create stable atmospheric pressure plasmas. Hybrid plasma-catalytic system utilizing ceramics loaded with catalysts may be very effective for flue gas treatment. This paper presents the images of the discharges in porous ceramics generated by an ac high voltage and visualized by intensified charge-couples device (ICCD) camera system.
