摘要：
N-2(A(3)Sigma(+)(u)) metastable species are detected and measured in a non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma jet by laser induced fluorescence. A shielding device is used to change the ambient conditions additionally to the feeding gas composition. Varying the amount of N-2 and air admixed to the feeding gas as well as changing the shielding gas from N-2 to air reveals that the highest N-2(A(3)Sigma(+)(u)) is achieved in the case of air admixtures in spite of the enhanced collisional quenching due to the presence of O-2. The reasons for these observations are discussed in detail. Published by AIP Publishing.
