Abstract

The invention provides a method and apparatus for generating large quantities of singlet oxygen and/or ozone at unexpectedly high efficiencies. An electron beam generated by a hollow cathode plasma discharge device (HCD) is spread by disclosed means over an electron-transmissive window past which is flowing an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a high velocity.
