PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plasma system including a plasma device coupled to a power source, an ionizable media source, and a precursor source.SOLUTION: During operation, the ionizable media source 16 provides ionizable media, and the ionizable media source for the precursor 18 provides one or more chemical species, and photons at specific wavelengths, as well as containing various reactive functional groups and/or components to selectively treat the tissue workpiece surface by working in concert with synergetic effects. The chemical species and the ionizable gas are mixed either upstream or midstream from an ignition point of the plasma device 12, and once mixed, are ignited therein under application of electrical energy from the power source 14. As a result, a plasma effluent and photon source is formed, which carries the ignited plasma feedstock and resulting mixture of reactive species to a workpiece surface so as to perform a predetermined reaction. |
