Abstract
Spatially resolved absolute OH radical density measurements are performed in an atmospheric pressure glow discharge generated in ambient air with water electrode by broadband UV absorption spectroscopy. The radial distributions of OH density and gas temperature are obtained for the positive column, anode and cathode regions both for water-cathode and water-anode discharges. It is found that for both polarities of the water electrode the radial profiles of the ground state OH density and gas temperature are significantly broader than the total discharge emission intensity and the emission intensity originating from OH(&$text{A}_{{}}^{2}{{text{ }!Sigma!text{ }}^{+}}$ ;) only. Exceptional large OH densities exceeding 1023 m−3 are found. The OH kinetics are discussed in detail.
