Quantitative Production of Charges with a Carbon Nanotubes Coated Electrode Based on Trichel Pulses

Abstract:

This paper presents a novel method of quantitative production of charges with a carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated electrode. It is based on the Trichel pulse (TP) discharge which is characterized as highly regular current pulses. The charge-per-pulse transported in the discharge gap is nearly constant for a given condition. The total charges produced in unit time are an integer times of charge-per-pulse. The amount of charges and production velocity can be easily and quantitatively controlled, which may be of importance for some particular applications, such as electro-fluid-dynamic (EFD) actuator, reaction control in plasma-chemical synthesis and lab-on-a-chip. The effects of humidity and temperature on the charge-per-pulse also have been experimentally investigated and extensively analyzed.
