Influence of Dielectric Coatings on Pin-to-Rod Nanosecond-Pulsed Discharges in Phosphate-Buffered Saline

Plasma medicine is a rapidly expanding field that utilizes nonequilibrium plasma discharges at atmospheric conditions or in liquids for clinical applications. There is a significant interest in the production of plasma in the liquid phase for wastewater treatment, agricultural applications, and medical purposes. However, little investigation has been done about the effects of dielectric coatings on submerged electrodes, which is of significant...
