contents The transition from quasi-uniform to filamentary modes in a repetitive nanosecond Surface Dielectric Barrier Discharge(SDBD) under atmospheric pressure was studied. Our focus encompassed both discharge morphology and electrical characteristics, revealing two pivotal findings. Firstly, by analyzing the current and the deposited energy waveforms, three characteristic frequency ranges respectively corresponding to the discharge modes are identified. Notably, within the 5 kHz to 8 kHz range, we observed non-monotonic changes in the propagation distance, the current amplitude, and the deposited energy - a crucial insight linked to the discharge transition. Secondly, the count of current extrema in the primary discharge process changes only during the transition to filamentary mode, remaining stable in the steady discharge mode. This variation may be attributed to secondary Surface Ionization Waves (SIWs). The interplay of these two findings with the discharge transition requires deeper investigation. Additionally, we present a discharge modes control curve outlining parameter windows for the discharge modes. This curve facilitates the optimization of pulse power supply and control schemes in practical applications.
