quency is raised from 30 kHz to 60 kHz, the emission inten-
sity of most of the peaks (except N2þ 391 nm peak) increases
slightly [Fig. 6(d)]. This trend is in an overall agreement
with other experiment.30,31 In atmospheric-pressure non-
equilibrium plasma, the plasma is generated intermittently.
The intensity at each wavelength observed using a spectrom-
eter is the time-averaged effective intensity. For a fixed
exposure time of the spectrometer, the time-averaged effec-
tive intensity at each wavelength is expected to increase line-
arly with the pulse frequency.32 However, it should be noted
that the increase in the emission intensities at each wave-
length with the pulse frequency is not significant in the range
of 40–60 kHz.
The intensity ratio of two atomic lines of He, 587 nm (3d
3
D ! 2p 3P) and 706 nm (3s 3S ! 2p 3P), is equivalent to the
ratio of upper state’s density, which depends on the electric
field or the electron energy.33 If we assume that the excitation
coefficient ratio of He at 706 nm and O at 777 nm remains
constant with the control parameters, we can estimate the
effect of the control parameters on O density by taking the
emission intensity ratio of O/He. Figures 7(a)–7(c) illustrate
the intensity ratios He(587 nm)/He(706 nm) and O(777 nm)/
He(706 nm) as functions of applied voltage, gas flow rate, and
pulse frequency, respectively. It is observed that these ratios
exhibit similar trend of change with the control parameters.
This indicates that oxygen atom density correlates with the
electron energy and is enhanced with increasing applied volt-
age, and at specific values of gas flow rate (8 l/min) and pulse
