That and costs, DC high voltage is usually cheaper to do than
RF.....

Hi Alfredo,
In general, the both are just different methods to supply
energy to
ionize a gas and support the gas discharge - plasma. When
you supply DC
(it may be both high voltage and low voltage with external
electrons
emitter), electrons accelerate in electrical field to get
energy which
is necessary to ionize a gas molecule, when you supply RF,
electrons are
accelerated in RF (usually 13.56 MHz) field. There also
may be MF
(middle frequency, 40 - 100 kHz) plasma. The each method
device design,
pros and cons strongly depend on your application.
Best regards,
Vladimir Chutko, Ph.D.
