| Comment | : | Radiofrequency source(> 1MHz)for the production of cold plasma raises the problem of power dissipation. Some works observe very large discrepancies between experimental results and the plasma modeling. Most of time, they ascribed such discrepancies to the power dissipation to the electrical circuit before the discharge. Our work reveals, when the matching box is conveniently made, that the major part of rf power dissipation induces emitted radiations in open space whereas the smaller part is dissipated in plasma jet. This phenomenon was not taken into account nor in plasma physics neither in medical applications. |
