2 Background Plasma jet Plasma is generated between electrodes by a dielectric barrier discharge in a tube. The plasma is pushed out of the tube by feed gas, allowing the plasma to reach a solid and liquid surface easily. copper tube aluminium sheet Plasma jet can be used in the fields of plasma medicine [1] and disinfection [2]. ROS/RNS (Reactive Oxygen Species/Reactive Nitrogen Species) such as O, OH and NO x are regarded as important species. For the effective use of plasma-jet property and expanding its applications, to investigate and control the kinds and quantities of these species is essential. [1] S. Hamaguchi: J.

3 Background & Objectives Takeuchi et al. (Proc. of the 74th JSAP Autumn Meeting, 8-133, 213) calculated the density of OH radical in plasma on gas-liquid interface, and reported that OH radicals produced in the plasma react with themselves to form H 2 O 2. The concentration of OH radicals may be deduced from that of H 2 O 2. Objectives To investigate the kinds and quantities of ROS/RNS in plasma jet and deionised-water exposed to the plasma jet. To control the kinds and quantities of the species. We generated an plasma jet, and carried out the optical emission spectroscopy of the plasma jet. We exposed deionised-water to the plasma jet, and analysed ROS/RNS dissolved in the deionised-water using liquid chromatograph. We investigated the effect of H 2 O addition to gas from the measurements of H 2 O 2 in the water.

The concentration of OH radical may not be proportional to the increase of the relative humidity of gas.

21 Conclusions We generated an plasma jet, and carried out optical emission spectroscopy of the plasma jet. The emissions of, OH, N 2 and O are observed, and that of NO is observed only when air is mixed into the plasma jet. We exposed deionised-water to the plasma jet, and analysed ROS/RNS dissolved in the deionised-water. H 2 O 2, NO 2- and NO 3- are dissolved in the deionised-water after the plasma jet exposure. Air mixture into the plasma jet leads to RNS production. OH radical concentration increase by H 2 O addition to gas, but that may not be proportional to the H 2 O concentration in gas.
