Abstract

A newly designed atmospheric pressure plasma jet that can generate plasma without an external power line for use in an inhospitable humid environment is proposed. A four-bore tube is employed as the delivery conduit, and wire electrodes are inserted into two diagonal hollows. As the wire electrodes are completely isolated inside the hollows of the multibore glass tube, there is no contact with the environment at the end of the device where the jet is produced. Two identical plasma plumes can be generated not only in the ambient air but also under water, thereby enabling tissue and wound treatments in a humid environment, such as oral medicine and endodontic care.
