Abstract

ABSTRACT Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is a well-known method for producing homogeneous glow discharges at high pressures. These systems have many applications, such as ozone generation, excimer UV lamps and plasma display panels [1]. DBDs are successfully applied to pollution control and to polymer surface treatment in order to promote wettability, printability, and adhesion [2]. The recent investigations [3, 4] showed that they find several applications in the biomedical field; the light disinfection systems used in health care settings is an attempt to decrease the transmission of nosocomial pathogens and prevent health care associated infections [5]. The atmospheric pressure barrier discharges filled with the noble gas Argon using excimer lamps is studied as a perspective plasma-processing system for surface treatment, bio-medical and the disinfection of surfaces due to their practical, inexpensive and appropriately intense advantages.
