The recent Applied Physics Letters article entitled “Spectrally filtered ps–ns emission dynamics of atmospheric-pressure nanosecond pulsed plasmas” by Karna Patel and co-authors was selected as an Editor's Pick in early 2022. See doi.org/10.1063/5.0073630.
This work showed the feasibility of investigating the temporal dynamics of atmospheric-pressure nanosecond pulsed plasma discharges using streak-camera line imaging of the interelectrode gap with a time resolution as short as 25 ps. Using filtered emissions bands, this technique enables quantitative time-resolved studies of key chemical species for model validation in ultra-short-pulsed plasmas.
