Plasma jet operating in plasma bullet mode is a relatively new plasma source with a large range of potential applications, from biomedical to material processing and surface activation. Our plasma source was made of Pyrex glass tube with inner diameter of 4 mm and outer diameter of 6 mm. The frequency that we used was 80 kHz and the applied voltage was in the range of 7-11 kV_(peak-to-peak). The power supply was a waveform generator connected to an HF amplifier and custom-made HV transformer. In this paper, we will show time-resolved ICCD images of our plasma bullet device for two different electrode configurations. The power transmitted to the plasma was calculated and it was lower than 2 W for both used sets of electrodes.
