Enhancement of electron density in the interaction of high-power electromagnetic waves with inhomogeneous magnetized plasma

Propagation characteristics of a high-power electromagnetic wave through an inhomogeneous magnetized plasma is investigated. Considering the momentum transfer equations for electrons and ions and taking into account the ponderomotive force, the distribution of electron density and dielectric permittivity are obtained. Using non-linear dielectric permittivity and Maxwell's equations in the absence of external current and charge densities, non-linear wave equations are achieved. The results indicate that the external static magnetic field can modify the profiles of both the electric and magnetic fields. It is also shown that the external static magnetic field enhances the amplitude of the electron density and the non-linear dielectric permittivity.     

Dynamical properties of magnetized two-dimensional one-component plasma

Molecular dynamics simulation are used to examine the effect of a uniform perpendicular magnetic field on a two-dimensional interacting electron system. In this simulation we include the effect of the magnetic field classically through the Lorentz force. Both the Coulomb and the magnetic forces are included directly in the electron dynamics to study their combined effect on the dynamical properties of the 2D system. Results are presented for the velocity autocorrelation function and the diffusion constants in the presence and absence of an external magnetic field. Our simulation results clearly show that the external magnetic field has an effect on the dynamical properties of the system.

Electron acceleration in the inverse free electron laser with a helical wiggler by axial magnetic field and ion-channel guiding

Electron acceleration in the inverse free electron laser (IFEL) with a helical wiggler in the presence of ion-channel guiding and axial magnetic field is investigated in this article. The effects of tapering wiggler amplitude and axial magnetic field are calculated for the electron acceleration. In free electron lasers, electron beams lose energy through radiation while in IFEL electron beams gain energy from the laser. The equation of electron motion and the equation of energy exchange between a single electron and electromagnetic waves are derived and then solved numerically using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The tapering effects of a wiggler magnetic field on electron acceleration are investigated and the results show that the electron acceleration increases in the case of a tapered wiggler magnetic field with a proper taper constant.     

The Influences of the Magnetic Field Strength on the Magnetic Confinement of Primary Electrons in an Ion Source

This paper deals with the simulation of trajectories of energetic electrons under the influence of a multi-cusp magnetic field produced by a permanent magnet assembly in a ring cusp geometry which is designed for supporting a plasma based ion source. The primary electrons are assumed as being emitted from a cathode located coaxially with the cylindrical discharge chamber. The volume of the region occupied by the electron trajectories and the magnetic trapping time were evaluated and plots are presented showing the effects of the surface magnetic field strength of the magnets on the volume and the mean confinement time of primary electrons in the ion source.     

THEORETICAL INVESTIGATION OF ELECTRON-NEUTRAL ATOM COLLISION PROCESS AND ELECTRON TRANSPORT PARAMETERS IN DC GLOW DISCHARGE OF PLASMA WITH A TRANSVERSE MAGNETIC FIELD

A Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) technique is used to simulate the cathode sheath region of a helium dc glow discharge. In such a simulation, a nonuniform electric field and a transverse uniform magnetic field are considered. When the magnetic field intensity increases from 0 to 800 G, all types of collision considered in this paper are enhanced. This result is in agreement with the experimental result. The results also show that with the increase of magnetic field intensity, the electron transport time, the electron density increase, and the electron mean energy decreases.     

Energy-gain measurements from a microwave inverse free-electron-laser accelerator

Experiments are reported on inverse free-electron-laser acceleration, including for the first time observations of the energy change as a function of relative injection phase of the electron bunches. The microwave accelerating structure consists of a uniform circular waveguide with a helical wiggler and an axial magnetic field. Acceleration of the entire beam by 6% is seen for 6 MeV electron bunches at optimum relative phase. Experimental results compare favorably, for accelerating phases, with predictions of a three-dimensional simulation that includes large-orbit effects.     

One-dimensional fluid model of ECR discharge with inhomogeneityeffects of external magnetic field

A one-dimensional fluid model of the microwave electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) discharge, which includes the inhomogeneity effects of the external magnetic field, is developed. We use fluid equations which are obtained from the one-dimensional Bolzmann equation expressed in terms of magnetic moment and parallel velocity. We model the plasma and sheath separately, and appropriate plasma-sheath boundary conditions are utilized. Microwave is represented by an energy flow, and treated by a ray tracing technique. For the argon discharge, we obtain various quantities such as the axial profiles of plasma density, electron temperature, electrostatic potential, fluid velocity, and microwave power deposition. The results of simulation compare well with the experimental observation of the mirror field effects on the plasma parameters     

The effects of a small transverse magnetic field upon acapacitively coupled RF discharge

A capacitively-coupled RF argon discharge at a pressure of 10 mTorr with a plate separation of 7.5 cm has been studied both experimentally and using a one-dimensional particle in cell simulation with Monte Carlo collisions. A magnetic field of 0 to 60 G is applied in the direction parallel to the capacitor plates. In the simulation it was found that as the magnetic field was increased such that the electron cyclotron orbit radius of the hot electrons became smaller than of the order of the discharge length, the electron heating in the bulk of the discharge increased. The dominant electron heating mechanism was observed to change from a stochastic sheath to a bulk ohmic electron heating mode, with a variation of field from a to 10 G. This was accompanied by a drop in the plasma density at small magnetic fields, which was also observed experimentally. At higher magnetic fields the plasma density was found to increase, A detailed discussion of the simulation results is presented drawing comparisons with the experimental results, with which there is good agreement, and a simple magnetohydrodynamic model for the bulk heating     

Modeling of argon discharge characteristics of planar-type surface wave plasmas in an electron fluid model

The planar-type surface wave plasma (SWP) device permits the generation of high-density and uniform processing plasmas via 2.45-GHz microwave power without the application of an external magnetic field. In the present study, the discharge characteristics in the SWP device were analyzed using a two-dimensional numerical simulation code, and the results were compared with experimental observations. The simulation code is based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for the microwave field and on the electron fluid model for the argon discharge plasma. Experimental measurements were performed, and they showed that the surface-wave discharge at a filling pressure of 10-100 mtorr has characteristic electron-density distributions that have a peak at approximately 2 cm from the surface. This characteristic of the electron density profiles, as well as the electron temperature profiles in the plasma, is reproduced by the simulation code, albeit with some discrepancies. In order to reduce the effects of these discrepancies, intentional changes in the electron heat conductivity were introduced, and the adiabatic assumption was found to result in a reasonable electron temperature profile. The effects of the alumina window thickness were also investigated in the simulation.

Conductance asymmetry of a slot gate Si‐MOSFET in a strong parallel magnetic field

We report measurements on a Si‐MOSFET sample with a slot in the upper gate, allowing for different electron densities n_1,2 across the slot. The dynamic longitudinal resistance was measured by the standard lock‐in technique, while maintaining a large DC current through the source‐drain channel. We find that the conductance of the sample in a strong parallel magnetic field is asymmetric with respect to the DC current direction. This asymmetry increases with magnetic field. The results are interpreted in terms of electron spin accumulation or depletion near the slot.     

Particle-in-Cell/Monte Carlo Collision simulation of planar DC magnetron sputtering

In this paper a numerical simulation of a planar DC magnetron discharge is performed with the Particle-in Cell/Monte Carlo Collision （PIC/MCC） method. The magnetic field used in the simulation is calculated with finite element method according to experimental configuration. The simulation is carried out under the condition of gas pressure of 0.665 Pa and voltage magnitude of 400V. Typical results such as the potential distribution, charged particle densities, the discharge current density and ion flux onto the target are calculated. The erosion profile from the simulation is compared with the experimental data. The maximum erosion position corresponds to the place where the magnetic field lines are parallel to the target surface.
