Abstract

vA surface dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) reactor provides homogeneous plasma over a large area. Here we present a solid-state pulse modulator to generate SDBD plasma. It is able to generate 7 kV, 2 µs pulses at 15 kHz and 125 W. The presented pulse modulator is able to recover a large part of the remaining capacitive energy after each pulse. The paper presents the basic concept, practical implementation, voltage and current characteristics, loss analysis, and SDBD discharge behavior.
