Abstract

The use of hydrogel electrodes transparent to visible light for the generation of atmospheric-pressure spark discharges with a current amplitude to 400 A periodically following each other with a frequency of 250 Hz has been demonstrated for the first time. A technology for the saturation of polyacrylamide-based hydrogel electrodes with aqueous solutions of NaCl and CuSO4 is described. Video images of the discharges and craters formed on the surface of the electrodes are presented.
