等离子体化学是化学的一个新分支,是一门新颖的边缘科学。十九世纪末,克鲁克斯(William Crookes)研究阴极射线时,发现低气压放电管中的气体具有一种奇特的性质。认为它是高度电离的气体,主要成分是带正电荷的离子。后来又经他人研究,发现它是固态、液态和气态以外的另一种物质状态,因为正负电荷密度几乎相等,从整体看来呈现中性。在人们真正认识这种状态以前,就已有人利用电火花、电弧或 Plasma chemistry is a new branch of chemistry, is a novel edge science. At the end of the nineteenth century, when studying the cathode ray, William Crookes found that gas in a low-pressure discharge tube had a peculiar property. Think it is a highly ionized gas, the main component is positively charged ions. Later, after research by others, it was found that it is another state of matter other than solid, liquid and gaseous, since the positive and negative charge densities are almost the same and appear neutral as a whole. People used electric sparks, electric arcs, or people until they really understood the state
