Electrodeless Excimer Uv Lamp

View page
US Patent:
6858988, Feb 22, 2005
Filed:
Oct 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/284113
Inventors:
Mounir Laroussi - Virginia Beach VA, US
Assignee:
Old Dominion University Research Foundation - Norfolk VA
International Classification:
H01J007/24
H01J065/00
US Classification:
31511121, 313607, 1563451
Abstract:
An electrodeless excimer UV lamp, comprising an enclosed chamber with a gas sealed within the enclosed chamber, wherein the gas is capable of being used to generate a plasma discharge, a first electrode wrapped around the outer surface of the chamber at a first location, a second electrode wrapped around the outer surface of the chamber at second location, and a power supply configured to apply a voltage to the first electrode and the second electrode. During operation of the UV lamp, a plasma discharge is generated by applying a voltage to the electrodes wrapped around the outer surface of the chamber to ignite the gas or gas mixture inside the chamber and generate a plasma discharge within the chamber, such that a specific wavelength of UV radiation will be generated by the particular gas within the chamber.

Plasma Generator

US Patent:
7719200, May 18, 2010
Filed:
Mar 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/885840
Inventors:
Mounir Laroussi - Virginia Beach VA, US
Assignee:
Old Dominion University - Norfolk VA
International Classification:
H01J 7/24
US Classification:
31511181, 31511121, 21912136, 21912148, 21912152, 21912151
Abstract:
A plasma generator, comprising a dielectric tube having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is sealed, but for a gas inlet; at least one first dielectric disk located within the dielectric tube, wherein the first dielectric disk includes at least one first dielectric aperture formed therein; a first ring electrode that at least partially surrounds the at least one first dielectric aperture and is electrically coupled to a power supply; at least one second dielectric disk located proximate the second end of the dielectric tube, wherein the second dielectric disk includes at least one second dielectric aperture formed therein; and a second ring electrode that at least partially surrounds the at least one second dielectric aperture and is electrically coupled to the power supply. During use, the plasma generator produces at least one plasma plume that is launched into open air.

Low Temperature Plasma Generator Having An Elongate Discharge Tube

View page
US Patent:
8294369, Oct 23, 2012
Filed:
Aug 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/583277
Inventors:
Mounir Laroussi - Virginia Beach VA, US
Assignee:
Old Dominion University - Norfolk VA
International Classification:
H01J 7/24
US Classification:
31511121, 315109, 31511191, 31323131
Abstract:
A plasma generator for delivering a generated plasma to an area that is a distance from the area where the plasma is initially generated, including a dielectric tube portion extending from a gas inlet to a discharge aperture; an anode formed at least substantially around a portion of the discharge tube, wherein the anode is electrically coupled, via an electrical connection, to a power supply; a cathode formed at least substantially around a portion of the discharge tube, wherein the cathode is electrically coupled, via an electrical connection, to the power supply; and an elongate discharge tube attached or coupled to the discharge aperture such that when a generated plasma is produced, the generated plasma flows through the discharge tube.

Low Temperature Plasma Generator

US Patent:
8460283, Jun 11, 2013
Filed:
Aug 17, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/583222
Inventors:
Mounir Laroussi - Virginia Beach VA, US
Julien Jarrige - Paris, FR
Assignee:
Old Dominion University - Norfolk VA
International Classification:
A61B 18/08
US Classification:
606 34, 606 40, 606 49, 31511121
Abstract:
A plasma generator having a dielectric body; a first end wall and a second end wall attached or coupled to each end of the dielectric body to define a cavity within the dielectric body, and wherein the second end wall includes at least one discharge aperture formed therein; at least one gas inlet formed proximate the first end of the dielectric body; at least one anode located within the cavity of the dielectric body, wherein the at least one anode includes at least one anode aperture; at least one hollow discharge nozzle associated with each discharge aperture, and extending from the second end wall to a nozzle aperture, such that when a generated plasma is produced, the generated plasma flows through each discharge aperture, each associated discharge nozzles, and each associated nozzle aperture; and at least one cathode formed at least substantially around a portion of each discharge nozzle.

Electrodeless Discharge At Atmospheric Pressure

View page
US Patent:
62046055, Mar 20, 2001
Filed:
Mar 24, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/275581
Inventors:
Mounir Laroussi - Knoxville TN
Gary S. Sayler - Blaine TN
Battle B. Glascock - Signal Mountain TN
Assignee:
The University of Tennessee Research Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
H05H 126
US Classification:
31511121
Abstract:
Voltage is applied to conducting loops wrapped around the outside of a non-conducting chamber (e. g. , a glass tube) to generate a capacitively coupled discharge plasma inside the chamber. In one embodiment, a seed gas is injected into the chamber through an inlet in an otherwise closed end of the chamber, while the other end is open to the ambient atmosphere. In such an embodiment, the seed gas is used to ignite the plasma in air at essentially atmospheric pressure. The present invention has different applications, including, but not limited to, (a) passivating toxic or polluting gases that are injected into the chamber along with the seed gas and (b) treating materials placed within a second chamber that is connected to the open end of the plasma-generating chamber such that active species migrate into the second chamber to interact with the materials placed therein.

US Patent:
54143241, May 9, 1995
Filed:
Oct 29, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/145786
Inventors:
John R. Roth - Knoxville TN
Peter P. Tsai - Knoxville TN
Chaoyu Liu - Knoxville TN
Mounir Laroussi - Knoxville TN
Paul D. Spence - Knoxville TN
Assignee:
The University of Tennessee Research Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
H01J 724
US Classification:
31511121
Abstract:
A steady-state, glow discharge plasma is generated at one atmosphere of pressure within the volume between a pair of insulated metal plate electrodes spaced up to 5 cm apart and R. F. energized with an rms potential of 1 to 5 KV at 1 to 100 KHz. Space between the electrodes is occupied by air, nitrous oxide, a noble gas such as helium, neon, argon, etc. or mixtures thereof. The electrodes are charged by an impedance matching network adjusted to produce the most stable, uniform glow discharge.
