This data set contains the data shown in the corresponding publication in Applied Physics Letters (https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0160303). This publication presents a benchmark of THz absorption spectroscopy against a more established method. Atomic oxygen densities were measured with THz absorption spectroscopy and compared to those obtained from picosecond (ps) two-photon absorption laser induced fluorescence (TALIF) measurements on the same capacitively coupled radio frequency oxygen discharge.

This data set contains the data shown in the corresponding publication in Plasma Sources Science and Technology (https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6595/acb815). This publication presents the first implementation of terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) for high-resolution absorption spectroscopy on plasmas. Absolute densities of ground state atomic oxygen were directly obtained by using the fine structure transition at approximately 4.75 THz.

The HelixJet (https://www.inptdat.de/helixjet) was applied to simultaneous melting and plasma treatment of polyamide (PA 12) microparticles (diameter 60 µm) used conventionally for 3D printing by laser sintering. This proof-of-principle experiment demonstrated that gaussian thickness profiles of PA 12 can be printed using the HelixJet with a rapid rate of 200 mg/s (peak growth 2 mm/s) and with advantageous material properties. The key element of this novel process is the self-regulated balance between material melting and plasma quenching.

The dataset contains data from comparative studies of capacitively coupled radio-frequency (CCRF) discharges in helium and argon at pressures between 10 and 80 Pa applying two different fluid modeling approaches as well as two independently developed particle-in-cell Monte Carlo collision (PIC-MCC) codes. The dataset provides a test bed for future studies of simple ccrf discharge configurations in helium and argon at pressures ranging from 10 to 80 Pa.
