The equation of state for plasmas containing negative atomic and molecular ions (anions) is modeled. The model is based on the assumption that all ionization processes and chemical reactions are at local thermal equilibrium and the Coulomb interaction in the plasma is described by the Debye–Hu¨ckel theory. In particular, the equation of state is obtained for plasmas containing the elements Ca, Cl, C, Si, N, and Ar. The equilibrium reaction constants are calculated using the latest experimental and ab initio data of spectroscopic constants for the molecules CaCl2, CaCl, Cl2, N2, C2, Si2 , CN, SiN, SiC, and their positive and negative ions. The model is applied to laserinduced plasmas (LIPs) by including the equation of state into a fluid dynamic numerical model based on the Navier–Stokes equations describing an expansion of LIP plumes into an ambient gas as a reactive viscous flow with radiative losses. In particular, the formation of anions Cl-, C-, Si-, Cl2, Si2, C2 , CN-, SiC-, and SiN- in LIPs is investigated in detail.
Under the assumption of local thermal equilibrium, a numerical algorithm is proposed to find the equation of state for laser-induced plasmas (LIPs) in which chemical reactions are permitted in addition to ionization processes. The Coulomb interaction in plasma is accounted for by the Debye–Hückel method. The algorithm is used to calculate the equation of state for LIPs containing carbon, silicon, calcium, chlorine, nitrogen, and argon. The equilibrium reaction constants are calculated using the latest experimental and ab initio data of spectroscopic constants for the molecules N2, C2, Si2, CN, Cl2, SiN, SiC, CaCl, CaCl2 and their positive and (if existed) negative ions. The algorithm is incorporated into a fluid dynamic numerical model based on the Navier–Stokes equations describing an expansion of LIP plumes into an ambient gas. The dynamics of LIP plumes obtained by the ablation of SiC, CaCl2, solid silicon, or solid carbon in an ambient gas containing N2 and Ar is simulated to study formation of molecules and molecular ions. A particular attention is paid to formation of anions Cl−, Cl2−, Si2−, C2−, CN−, and SiN− in LIPs.
A novel ionization scheme for ambient mass spectrometry is presented and discussed. Desorption and ionization are achieved by a quasi-continuous laser induced plasma (LIP) ignited in front of the atmospheric pressure interface of a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. This setup comprises the advantages of i) an ambient probe, ii) electro neutrality, iii) low power consumption, iv) a sufficient duty cycle, v) a ubiquitous plasma medium (air) and vi) high sensitivity caused by the high electron number densities.
The plasma properties and operating conditions are investigated to understand the processes that lead to the formation of molecular ions. Comprehensive studies include optical emission spectroscopy, shadowgraphic shockwave visualization and time-of-flight mass spectrometry investigations. The observed MS signal (including reagent-ion signal, as well as analyte spectra) closely resembles the ionization behavior of other electrically-driven plasma-based ionization sources, such as DBD, LTP or DART. Conversely that means that although LIPs are commonly known to have temperatures way above 10.000 K and thus efficiently atomize and ionize molecules, MS spectra were obtained that showed the formation of intact molecular ions.
For an insight into the LIP properties the optical emission of the LIP is examined and exhibits a pronounced degree of dissociation into atomic and ionic species, which reflects the higher temperature and electron density inside a LIP. Accordingly, rather elemental (ICP-type) than molecular spectra should be expected. However due to the absence of such ions, we conclude that the analyte does not enter the hot center of the plasma itself. Moreover, the initial, highly-excited plasma species react cascade-like to lower energetic species via reactive collision with the surrounding atmosphere, which can then subsequently ionize molecules of interest. The concept potentially involves charge transfer, proton transfer, electron impact and photoionization.
These assumptions are confirmed via the shadowgraphs of the expanding shockwave around the LIP. An effective spatial separation between the two regions is maintained by concentrically expanding pressure waves resulting in a strongly unidirectional diffusion. Additionally, the strictly outbound matter transport suggests a rarefaction inside the plasma region for each plasma event.

Data processing in the calibration-free laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is usually based on the solution of the radiative transfer equation along a particular line of sight through a plasma plume. The LIBS data processing is generalized to the case when the spectral data are collected from large portions of the plume. It is shown that by adjusting the optical depth and width of the lines the spectra obtained by collecting light from an entire spherical homogeneous plasma plume can be leastsquare fitted to a spectrum obtained by collecting the radiation just along a plume diameter with a relative error of 10−11 or smaller (for the optical depth not exceeding 0.3) so that a mismatch of geometries of data processing and data collection cannot be detected by fitting. Despite the existence of such a perfect least-square fit, the errors in the line optical depth and width found by a data processing with an inappropriate geometry can be large. It is shown with analytic and numerical examples that the corresponding relative errors in the found elemental number densities and concentrations may be as high as 50% and 20%, respectively. Safe for a few found exceptions, these errors are impossible to eliminate from LIBS data processing unless a proper solution of the radiative transfer equation corresponding to the ray tracing in the spectral data collection is used.
Die physikalische Komplexität der Gasentladungen führt zu vielen Möglichkeiten für die Interaktion der Entladung mit ihrer Umgebung. Zu den typischen Anwendungen zählen Modifikationen der Materialoberflächen und Erzeugung von Ionen für Massenspektroskopie. Atmosphärendruckplasma generiert eine große Menge thermischer Energie wegen der Kollisionen in der Plasmarandschicht. Eine rasche Temperaturänderung kann in dem umgebenden Gas eine akustische Welle erzeugen, wie beim Blitz und Donner, was als thermoakustischer Effekt bekannt ist. Außerdem kann auch die Bewegung der Ladungsträger im elektrischen Feld, bekannt als ionischer Wind, eine akustische Welle erzeugen.
In diesem Beitrag werden Versuche mit akustischer Emission von Plasma bei dielektrischer Oberflächenentladung und bei Mikrohohlkathoden dargestellt. Es werden auch mögliche Anwendungen für Plasmadiagnostik, sowie für den Bau von Schallwandlern für den Hör- und Ultraschallbereich präsentiert. Verglichen mit anderen Methoden der Schallerzeugung, hat die thermoakustische Anregung den Vorteil, dass sie auch ohne eine schwingende Masse auskommt, womit eine große Bandbreite erreicht wird, sowie den Vorteil einer guten Anpassung der akustischen Impedanz.
Modern and energy-efficient materials are essential for innovative designs for aerospace and automotive industries. Current technologies for rapid manufacturing such as additive manufacturing and liquid composite moulding by polymer Extrusion allow innovative ways of creating robust and lightweight constructions. Commercially available printing devices often use polylactide (PLA) or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) as raw material. Therefore, parameters like the infill ratio, influencing the ability to resist mechanical stress, may have a beneficial impact on the lifetime of components.
These manufacturing technologies require a good knowledge about materials and even adapted non-destructive testing technologies and methods. Airborne ultrasonic testing has beneficial advantages for testing those lightweight constructions. It is a contact-free testing method, which does not require a liquid couplant. Therefore, it allows fast test cycles without any unwanted alternations of the material properties due to interactions with any coupling liquid. This contribution deals with the characterisation of printed specimens based on PLA by using airborne ultrasound and presents the current edge of non-destructive testing and evaluation using airborne ultrasonic transducers. The specimens, manufactured by polymer extrusion, are printed as thin plates. The infill ratio, as well as the material thickness, were varied to model density imperfections with different geometric shapes and properties. For better understanding of the limits of airborne ultrasonic testing in transmission, we compared own-developed transducers based on different physical principles: on ferroelectrets, on the thermoacoustic effect, as well as a new type of transducers based on gas discharges.
