O atom kinetics in CO<SUB>2</SUB> pulsed glow discharges

Abstract

International audienceO atoms play a key role in the efficiency of CO2 plasma recycling processes because their reactions can either promote or reduce the conversion of CO2. We have measured the O atom density and recombination probability by means of actinometry and TALIF and compared the results with the time evolution of CO measured by FTIR spectroscopy in pulsed glow discharge
