Arc in vacuum is one of the important methods used to prepare carbon materials. However, the use of vacuum increases the cost of the arc method. This paper introduces an arc discharge device working at atmospheric pressure. The current-limiting resistor, capacitor and inductor make the discharge gentle. The electrode temperature can be adjusted from 2040 K to 3673 K. Carbon nanofibres were prepared at the electrode temperature of 3645 K by using this device.
