Measurement and 3D simulation of self-organized filaments in a barrier discharge

We report on pattern formation phenomena in the filamentary dielectric barrier discharge between plane glass electrodes. It is for the first time that a three-dimensional (3D) self-organized glow pattern was both observed in an actual experiment and directly calculated in a full 3D discharge simulat...

Zusammenfassung:We report on pattern formation phenomena in the filamentary dielectric barrier discharge between plane glass electrodes. It is for the first time that a three-dimensional (3D) self-organized glow pattern was both observed in an actual experiment and directly calculated in a full 3D discharge simulation in a quantitative manner. Specifically, we investigate the genesis of periodic patterns during the first breakdowns. Despite our simple drift-diffusion discharge model, the correspondence of experimental and numerical findings is surprisingly good.
