Spatial distribution of electron characteristic in argon rf glow discharges

The spatial distributions of the electron density and the mean electron energy of argon radio frequency (rf) glow discharge plasma in a plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) system have been investigated using an established movable Langmuir probe. The results indicate that in the axial direction the electron density tends to peak at midway between the two electrodes while the axial variation trend of mean electron energy is different from that of the electron density, the mean electron energy is high near the electrodes. And the mean electron energy near the cathode is much higher than that near the anode. This article focuses on the radial distribution of electron density and mean electron energy. A proposed theoretical model distribution agrees well with the experimental one: the electron density and the mean electron energy both increase from the centre of the glow to the edge of electrodes. This is useful for better understanding the discharge mechanism and searching for a better deposition condition to improve thin film quality.     

Numerical Study on Characteristics of Argon Radio-Frequency Glow Discharge with Varying gas Pressure

A one-dimensional fluid simulation on argon rf glow discharge with varying linearly gas pressure from 1 Torr to 100 Tort is performed. The model based on mass conservation equations for electron and ion under diffusion and mobility approximation, and the electron energy conservation equation is solved numerically by finite volume method. The numerical results show that a uniform plasma with high density can be obtained from rf glow discharge with varying gas pressure, and the density of plasma becomes higher as the gas pressure varies from 1 Tort to 100 Tort. It is also shown that in the range of the gas pressure from 1 Tort to 100 Tort with the slower rate of varying gas pressure, higher density of plasma can be obtained.     

Characteristics of anodic glow pulsed plasma

Using the triple Langmuir probe, the characteristics of the glowing plasma adjacent to a constricted anode is obtained. The glow discharge is generated by applying a train of high voltage pulses between the constricted anode and cylindrical cathode with a pulse frequency of 2 kHz at 50% duty cycle. The axial plasma characteristics along the central line of the anode shows crest and trough resembling a double layer. The bulk plasma showed uniform electron density outside the glow. The visual images show an enhancement in the volume of the glow consistent with the discharge current. The mechanism behind the particular double layer characteristics around the anode is being explained in detail.     

Principle and applications of a floating energy analyser

We describe a new type of energy analyser suitable for the use in plasmas having no external potential reference like ICPs and microwave discharges. It can be used to determine the ion distribution function (IDF) at a negatively biased surface and the high energy tail of the plasma electron distribution function (EDF). The EDF is measured without distortions by ion currents. This analyser was tested in a dc glow discharge and its results compared to measurements with Langmuir probes and a analyser with grounded reference. Some preliminary measurements were also performed in a rf parallel plate discharge. Dedicated to Prof. Jan Janča on the occasion of his 60th birthday, in remembrance of a fruitful and friendly European co-operation.

Detailed comparison between probe density measurements of glow discharge in argon and in helium

In this article we shall look a bit more closely at some of the fundamental plasma parameters obtained by a cylindrical Langmuir probe within low-pressure electrical gas discharge plasma. The presented measurements were made in argon and in helium glow discharge plasmas. We are mainly concerned with the densities of the charged particles (electrons and ions) within the plasma and the effect of the discharge conditions upon them. The electron density is calculated from the electron current at the space potential and from the integration over the EEDF. The ion density is calculated by using the OML collisionless theory. The parameterization of Laframboise's numerical results is also used for the ion density calculation. In the range of our experimental conditions the results of plasma density, for both gases, tend to show that the ion densities measured with the OML and Laframboise theories exceeds the measured electron densities. The results also show that the plasma electron and ion densities increased with both discharge power and gas pressure.     

射频功率对氢气与反式二丁烯的低压电感耦合等离子体的影响（英）

利用等离子体聚合技术制备的GDP壳层是目前ICF靶丸的主要烧蚀层材料。为了了解GDP薄膜沉积过程中的CH等离子体的状态,采用朗缪尔探针和质谱仪对C4H8/H2等离子体的组分和状态参数进行了诊断,并对等离子体的电子能量分布函数、电子密度、电子温度等进行了深入分析。同时讨论了等离子体状态与放电参数之间的关系。研究发现,射频功率对等离子体参数有明显的影响。从10 W到35 W,电子密度正比于射频功率。随着射频功率的增加,在两步电离机制作用下,电子温度和等离子体电势呈现先减小后增大的变化趋势。另外,在高气压下,质谱诊断中发现了大量的稳定的小质量碎片离子,这表明在高气压下等离子体气相中的离子碎片聚合反应被抑制。     

Electron impact ionization and excitation rate coefficients in the negative glow region of a glow discharge

Some easy to use reasonable approximations for electron impact rate coefficients have been considered. The most important rate coefficients for electron collisions in noble gases are electron-neutral ionization and electron impact excitation. Electron-neutral ionization besides electron impact excitation of some states of the argon and helium atom in direct current (dc) glow discharge plasma has been calculated. The plasma parameters of electron are significant factors for computing the rate coefficients. We present first results of probe diagnostic that includes the double probe measurements of the plasma parameters, namely, electron temperature (T_e) and electron density (n_e). Electron properties obtained from the double probe characteristic curves including T_e and n_e as well as the calculated rate coefficients (ionization and excitation) were studied as a function of the axial distance from the cathode while the discharge operating parameters of voltage and pressure were varied. Two regions of the glow discharge were investigated: cathode fall region and negative glow. Particular emphasis was placed on the negative glow region.
