Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0881865A2] The appliance has at least one hollow cathode chamber (32) surrounded by a hollow cathode (12) and a high frequency power supply. The cathode has at least one inlet (15) for the gas used and an anode adjacent to one of the cathodes. Cathode and anode have holes (6,7) which face one another and through which the plasma jets (5) pass from the hollow cathode chamber into a process cell. The appliance has several separate individual hollow cathode chambers and each allocated to a plasma jet. The hollow cathode chamber can be divided into a number of separate individual chambers to form individual cathodes each with its own gas inlet
