Images of striations in large-gap plasma display panels

Striations in large-gap coplanar dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. We show the striations in a large-gap coplanar DBD. The time-resolved images of discharge were obtained by macrocell experiment and PIC-MCC simulation. Two series of striations appear in the cell during the discharge developing between the faced electrodes and the coplanar electrodes. The simulation is in accordance with the stratified potential in the space.
