Abstract

This paper examines a novel application of a plasma globe as a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) device. Its capability and effectiveness in modifying surfaces have been proved by treating standard A4 size paper, and it was found that absorption rates for deionized water were significantly increased after 5 seconds of treatment. It was also observed that absorption rates continue to increase as a function of treatment time. Production of reactive radicals such as OH, N₂⁻, N⁻, and O⁻ was observed via optical emission spectroscopy.
