Carbon nanotubes based corona discharger and its application

The main focus of this study is to develop a novel carbon nanotubes based corona discharge apparatus and then evaluate its capability of discharging electrons on the micro/nano-particles or airborne microorganisms. We design an atmospheric quality detecting equipment which could become a personal portable product after this study. We developed a small corona discharge apparatus which could operate under low voltage. We then employed simulations and experiments to prove the feasibility of the proposed atmospheric quality detecting apparatus.
