5.9. RESULTS & DISCUSSION μm and d1 is 300 μm. The density of electrons decreases after the maximum density is reached beyond d0 and d1 , steeply, indicating formation of sheath regions; sheath region also corresponds to maximum in electron energy 7 eV. The reasons for the difference between positive and negative half-cycles are discussed in chapter 4. One of the major differences is higher electron density, that persists longer, is produced during negative half cycle. The increase in the electron density during negative half cycle is also reflec- ted in current (figure 5.7a). Spatio-temporal evolution of reduced electric field plotted in the figure 5.7d follows the mean electron energy as they are strongly related to each other. At the instant when the voltage is switched off (t0), the filament has bridged the gap reaching the ground electrode. As a consequence, the maximum electron density has been produced at d0. After switching off, the electron density only slowly decays at a very slow with a maximum of up to 1011 cm−3. It has to be noted that electron densities exceeding 109 cm−3 have been measured up to 100 μ s fter termination of streamer even in strongly electro-negative gases like synthetic air [245]. The high electron density does not however translate into chemistry or vibrational excitation as the electron energy is not suitable. Immediately after t0, the mean electron energy decreases at a faster rate when compared with the periodic state and reaches very low values. Also, when the voltage is switched off the gap-voltage decreases to zero very fast reducing the power consumption to zero as a consequence. 5.9.2 Spatio-temporal evolution of CO2(v31) and CO2(v32) The spatio-temporal evolution of densities of CO2(v31) and CO2(v32) are plotted in fig- ures 5.8a and 5.8b respectively so as to study the relation between discharge character- istics and densities of these vibrational levels. From the figure 5.8a, it can be seen that CO2(v31) density variation is periodic with voltage signal and with maximum produc- tion at d0 and d1 for positive and negative half cycles respectively. Following the trends of electron density, the CO2(v31) at d1 is higher than the density at d0. However, at t0 the rate of change of CO2(v31) decreases compared with the periodic state and hence its population declines at a slower rate (this difference between periodic state and off-phase is seen as a bright red spot at d0 in the figure 5.8a). At times greater than t0, the density of CO2(v31) declines through out the gas gap uniformly. In contrast with CO2(v31), dens- ity of CO2(v32) increases at an uniform rate without showing any periodic nature. Like CO2(v31), its density is also higher at d1 than at d0. After t0, the density of CO2(v32) remains at a constant level, only spreading in the gap due to diffusion. It has to be noted 135
