Description

<p>The University of Maryland is proposing to use a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) as a means to dissociate N2O. DBD uses alternating high voltage differences between two electrodes to create strong electric fields. One or both of the electrodes is covered in a dielectric, and a gap in between allows gas to pass through. Nitrous Oxide sent through the gap between the electrodes has its free electrons accelerated by the large E-field, and in the process the electrons collide with N2O molecules.</p>
