2 . The electrode structural body according to claim 1 , wherein, two electrodes forming at least one electrode pair among the plurality of electrode pairs are spaced from each other.

3 . The electrode structural body according to claim 2 , wherein among the two electrodes forming the at least one electrode pair, one electrode is the common electrode.

4 . The electrode structural body according to claim 2 , wherein the electrode includes a tubular insulating body and a conductor provided inside the insulating body; and
the insulating bodies of the two electrodes are spaced from each other, and a space is present between the insulating bodies.

5 . The electrode structural body according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of electrodes forming the plurality of electrode pairs are spaced from each other.

6 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , wherein the electrode includes a tubular insulating body and a conductor provided inside the insulating body; and
the insulating bodies of the plurality of electrodes are completely spaced from each other, and a space is present between the insulating bodies.

7 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , wherein an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of one electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of another electrode pair including the common electrode is substantially 180°.

8 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , wherein an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of one electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of another electrode pair including the common electrode is substantially 90°.

9 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , wherein an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of one electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of another electrode pair including the common electrode is an acute angle.

10 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , wherein an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of one electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of another electrode pair including the common electrode is an obtuse angle.

11 . The electrode structural body according to claim 5 , comprising a combination of a first electrode pair and a second electrode pair sharing the common electrode where an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of the first electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of the second electrode pair including the common electrode is an acute angle and a combination of a third electrode pair and a fourth electrode pair sharing the common electrode where an angle formed between a line connecting electrodes of the third electrode pair including the common electrode and a line connecting electrodes of the fourth electrode pair including the common electrode is an obtuse angle.

12 . The electrode structural body according to claim 1 , wherein number of positions for generating electric discharge for each of the electrodes, i.e., number of positions for generating electric discharge/number of electrodes, is more than 0.5.

13 . The electrode structural body according to claim 1 , wherein number of positions for generating electric discharge for each of the electrodes, i.e., number of positions for generating electric discharge/number of electrodes, is more than 1.0.

14 . The electrode structural body according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of electrode pairs are provided in a flow channel of a source gas; and
