A microplasma jet array is a device composed of a two-dimensional array of micro-scaled gas channels
that ignites flowing gas species into plasma-state jets. These devices operate at room temperature and
atmospheric pressure. The potential application for these devices is bacteria and biofilm inactivation and
past literature reports have demonstrated success in doing so. The device implemented in this report
differentiates from previous experimentation by utilizing a physical structure with potential for plasma
breakdown with ambient air as the gas feedstock. This differentiation presents an advantage because the
device can use natural and abundantly available gas as its feedstock. However, further testing must be
performed to fully conclude this capability.
