Abstract
Over the 2 semesters, I have been researching about Micro Plasma DBD(dielectric barrier discharge) devices which has key role in water-sterilization and found that the geometry structure of DBD has an important critical effect on the performance of ozone generating. Thus, I expected the ladder DBD device to have better ozone concentration and efficiency compared to normal straight 12 channels because vertical lines of channel of ladder has a lower speed of flow meter when injecting air/oxygen. Lower speed means that there would be more chance for plasma to discharge more easily. Also, I have anodized 500um aluminum piece with different time range in 150V since I found the surface of Aluminum is getting melted as the voltage is being applied more than for 24 hours, which is bad for stamping on it with the UV ink.
