Abstract
We have studied the nitric monoxide (NO) generation using non-thermal discharge plasma. In order to make clear the influence of the electrode configuration on the generation characteristics of the NO molecule, a multiple-needles - plane and a plane - plane electrodes were used to generate the high frequency (10 kHz) silent discharge. Laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy was applied to the y band transition (X 2π½ - A 2Σ+) of NO molecule to clarify the characteristics of NO production in non-thermal discharge plasma. In both electrode configurations, NO concentration increases with the discharge power increase. The NO concentration and the NO ratio in NOx at 25 W is 20 ppm and 33% for the multiple-needles electrode, and 120 ppm and 50% for the plane electrode, respectively. On the other hand, ozone is formed at relatively low discharge power. And there is no discharge power region in where NO coexists with ozone. Maximum ozone concentration (2800 ppm at 13 W) for the multiple-needles electrode is much larger than that for the plane electrode (760 ppm at 5 W). The plane electrode can produce NO with high content compared with the multiple-needles electrode, otherwise the multiple-needles electrode is very useful to produce ozone.
