Abstract
Characteristic properties and generation mechanisms of low temperature plasmas in different gas discharges are presented. A special part is focussed to the plasma surface transition including electric probes for plasma diagnostics. Reactive plasma surface interaction is exemplarily shown in polymer surface modification and deposition of thin organic films.
