The authors report a new nanosecond-pulsed dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) for sterilization and other medical applications. In the literature, several discharges have been reported, with pulse durations on the order of hundreds of nanoseconds. In this paper, a novel pulsed DBD has been developed, with only few tens of nanosecond pulsewidths working uniformly over large range of electrode gap distance in air under atmospheric pressure.
