Abstract

The invention relates to a method of generating plasma at atmospheric pressure in a slot jet, in which a stream of working gas flowing through the slot jet is acted upon by an electromagnetic field. In the slot jet a high-frequency electromagnetic field created and formed by at least one high-voltage electrode (7) dielectrically separated from the cavity of the slot (3) and by at least one grounded electrode (8) acts upon the flowing atomic working gas, by which means high-pressure high-frequency plasma is created at a high or low electric potential, by which as a feedback loop the original high-frequency electromagnetic field changes and the high-pressure high-frequency plasma is statistically distributed along the entire length of the slot (3) and is blown out of the entire length of the slot (3) by the stream of the atomic working gas. The invention also relates to a device for generating plasma at atmospheric pressure comprising at least one hollow body (1) provided with at least one inlet (2) of working gas and further provided with at least one slot (3) which forms the outlet orifice of the plasma, at least one electrode being aligned with the hollow body (1). The slot (3) is formed by a gap between a pair of dielectric plates (9), whereby aligned with the slot (3) is at least one high- voltage high-frequency electrode (7), separated from the cavity of the slot (3) by the dialectric plate (9), and at least one grounded electrode (8).
