Description

Atmospheric pressure plasma generator, preparation method and plasma generating device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of low-temperature plasmas, in particular to an atmospheric pressure plasma generator, a preparation method and a plasma generating device.
Background
The atmospheric low-temperature plasma is an atmospheric low-temperature plasma which has high electron energy and low ion energy and is at a temperature of between room temperature and several hundred degrees centigrade. The nano-composite material has the advantages of low temperature, multiple types of active particles, large quantity, strong activity, no need of a complex vacuum system and the like, and has wide application prospect in the fields of material surface processing and biomedicine. By controlling the diameter of the atmospheric pressure low-temperature plasma beam spot, atmospheric pressure extremely fine plasma with the diameter of dozens of micrometers or even nanometer magnitude can be obtained, so that the limitation on a mask can be eliminated during the patterning processing of the surface of a material, and the direct-writing micro-nano processing can be realized. In addition, in some special applications of the atmospheric pressure low temperature plasma, such as single quantum dot modification, single cell targeting treatment, etc., the atmospheric pressure ultra-fine plasma with the beam spot diameter in the micrometer or even nanometer scale is also required. However, the preparation of an atmospheric pressure plasma generator with stable discharge is a big problem in the field of atmospheric pressure low-temperature plasma at present.
The existing method mainly comprises the steps of heating and drawing a glass tube to obtain a capillary glass tube with the diameter of a few micrometers, and inserting a metal wire electrode and introducing working gas to generate atmospheric pressure superfine plasma. However, this method is unstable in discharge and high in excitation voltage, and is liable to puncture or ablate the tip of the capillary glass tube. The metal wire electrode is directly inserted into the air inlet channel, and can also influence working airflow, so that the discharge stability of the plasma is greatly influenced. In addition, it is difficult to ensure that the wire electrode is at the centerline of the capillary glass tube, and the direct exposure of the wire electrode to the plasma discharge region also has an effect on the wire electrode life. In addition to the method of drawing a glass tube by heating, the silicon wafer-based deep silicon etching method is also a common method for generating the ultra-fine plasma at atmospheric pressure. After the required micropores are etched on the silicon chip by a deep silicon etching process, the silicon chip is connected with the glass tube by glue, so that plasma generated in the glass tube can be sprayed out through the micropores on the silicon chip to generate atmospheric pressure ultrafine plasma. However, this method requires expensive processing equipment, and has a long processing period and high cost. In addition, the bonding position of the silicon chip and the glass tube is difficult to process, and the plasma ejection and stability are greatly influenced.
In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, the inventors of the present invention have finally obtained the present invention through a long period of research and practice.
