Abstract
At present, a diffuse discharge plasma of air and other gases at atmospheric pressure is widely used for the surface treatment of various materials. However, in many papers it is stated that erosion damages occur on flat anodes (targets) as a result of the discharge plasma action. The shape of these damages depends on the discharge mode. In this study, the exposure uniformity was investigated by using nano- and micro-sized carbon particles deposited on a flat copper anode (a carbon layer). The diffuse discharge was formed in a ‘point-plane’ gap with a non-uniform electric field strength distribution by applying voltage pulses with an amplitude of 18 kV. It has been established that at a gap width of 8–10 mm, an imprint of the discharge plasma on the carbon layer deposited on a copper anode has no traces of local erosion. In order for erosion to occur on the surface of the anode in the form of uniformly distributed microcraters, it is necessary to increase the current density at the anode, for example, by decreasing the gap width. When decreasing the gap width to 6 mm and less, spark channels occur. They damage both the carbon layer and the copper anode in its central part. It has been shown that there are three characteristic zones: a color-changing peripheral part of the carbon layer, a decarbonized central part of the anode, and an annular zone located between the central and peripheral parts and containing individual microcraters.
