Analysis of microscopic parameters of surface charging in polymer caused by defocused electron beam irradiation

The relationship between microscopic parameters and polymer charging caused by defocused electron beam irradiation is investigated using a dynamic scattering-transport model. The dynamic charging process of an irradiated polymer using a defocused 30 keV electron beam is conducted. In this study, the space charge distribution with a 30 keV non-penetrating e-beam is negative and supported by some existing experimental data. The internal potential is negative, but relatively high near the surface, and it decreases to a maximum negative value at z = 6 μm and finally tend to 0 at the bottom of film. The leakage current and the surface potential behave similarly, and the secondary electron and leakage currents follow the charging equilibrium condition. The surface potential decreases with increasing beam current density, trap concentration, capture cross section, film thickness and electron–hole recombination rate, but with decreasing electron mobility and electron energy. The total charge density increases with increasing beam current density, trap concentration, capture cross section, film thickness and electron–hole recombination rate, but with decreasing electron mobility and electron energy. This study shows a comprehensive analysis of microscopic factors of surface charging characteristics in an electron-based surface microscopy and analysis.     

Probe Measurements in a Beam Plasma Discharge

The influence of the beam energy and beam current density on the parameters of the plasma is investigated. The efficiency of carrier generation by collective interactions (Langmuir-oscillations) is compared with that by the single collision mechanism. The additional negative charging of the static probe caused by the beam electrons is used for the determination of the beam electron density.     

Dissipative instabilities in a mesospheric plasma with the aerosol charging processes taken into account

We consider dissipative instabilities of a flow of large aerosol particles as a possible mechanism for generation of electric-field and charged-particle density irregularities in the middle atmosphere. A dispersion equation describing the properties of the spectral component of a quasistatic electric field with allowance for the aerosol charging inertia and external stationary electric field is obtained. The equation is used to study characteristics of two possible instabilities, namely, the instability of a dust-acoustic mode and the instability of an additional low-frequency mode stimulated by the charging inertia. Dependences of the growth rates of both instabilities on the parameters of the medium and the external stationary electric field are obtained. Quantitative estimates for the parameters of the aerosol, ion, and electron components and external factors that are necessary for the excitation of instabilities in the region of the existence of summer polar mesospheric echo, as well as those for spatial scales of unstable perturbations, are given.     

入射电子能量对低密度聚乙烯深层充电特性的影响

高能带电粒子与航天器介质材料相互作用引起的深层带电现象, 一直是威胁航天器安全运行的重要因素之一. 考虑入射电子在介质中的电荷沉积、能量沉积分布以及介质中的非线性暗电导和辐射诱导电导, 建立了介质深层充电的单极性电荷输运物理模型. 通过求解电荷连续性方程和泊松方程, 可以得出不同能量 (0.1–0.5 MeV) 电子辐射下, 低密度聚乙烯 (厚度为1 mm) 介质中的电荷输运特性. 计算结果表明, 不同能量的电子辐射下, 介质充电达到平衡时, 最大电场随入射能量的增加而减小; 同一能量辐射下, 最大电场随束流密度的增大而增加. 入射电子能量较低时 (≤ 0.3 MeV) , 最大电场随束流密度的变化趋势基本相同. 具体表现为: 当束流密度大于3× 10^-9 A/m²时, 最大场强超过击穿阈值2×10⁷ V/m, 发生静电放电 (ESD) 的可能性较大. 随着入射电子能量的增加, 发生静电放电 (ESD) 的临界束流密度增大, 在能量为0.4 MeV时, 临界束流密度为6×10^-8 A/m². 当能量大于等于0.5 MeV时, 在束流密度为10^-9–10^-6 A/m²的范围内, 均不会发生静电放电 (ESD) . 该物理模型对于深入研究深层充放电效应、评估航天器在空间环境下 深层带电程度及防护设计具有重要的意义. 关键词： 高能电子辐射 低密度聚乙烯(LDPE) 介质深层充电 电导特性     

直流偏置对射频容性耦合放电特性的影响

直流偏置能较好抑制射频容性耦合等离子体(radio frequency capacitively coupled plasma, RF-CCP)表面充电效应, 但仍存在其对RF-CCP放电参量影响规律不明确, 电源对参量控制复杂等问题. 构建了直流源与射频源的板-板结构RF-CCP仿真模型, 在射频源基础上施加负直流源, 研究直流偏置对RF-CCP放电特性影响, 并比较射频与直流偏置对放电参量影响差异. 结果表明, 无直流源时, 周期平均电子密度N_{e, ave}, 周期平均电子温度T_{e, ave}均为对称分布, N_{e, ave}呈现两端小、中间大的凸函数分布, T_{e, ave}在距极板4 mm以内鞘层区均有陡然上升, 极大值出现在距极板1 mm左右处; 直流源会使等离子体主体区N_{e, ave}升高并发生偏移, 直流源侧N_{e, ave}降低, 对侧N_{e, ave}增加, 且对侧增加速率较快. 直流偏置可改善单侧电子温度与电子通量, 但提高电子密度能力弱于射频源. 实际工程中, 若欲提高单侧电子温度与电子通量, 应施加直流源, 若提高整体电子密度, 应提高射频源功率.

Attenuation characteristics of obliquely incident electromagnetic wave in weakly ionized dusty plasma based on modified Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook collision model

The attenuation characteristics of obliquely incident electromagnetic(EM) wave in L-Ka frequency band in weakly ionized dusty plasma are analyzed based on the modified Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook(BGK) collision model.According to the kinetic equation and the charging theory,the total complex dielectric constant of the weakly ionized dusty plasma is derived by considering that the minimum velocity of the electron accessible to the dust particle surface is non-zero and the second potential part of the collision cross-section contributes to the charging.The attenuation characteristics within the modified model are compared with those within the traditional model.The influence of the dusty plasma parameters and the incident angle of EM waves on the attenuation in weakly ionized dusty plasma is further analyzed.Finally,the influence of different reentry heights on the attenuation characteristics of the obliquely incident EM wave is discussed.The results show that the effect of the minimum electron velocity and the second term of the collision cross-section on the attenuation characteristics of EM waves cannot be ignored.When the dust density and dust radius are changed,the trends of the attenuation of obliquely incident EM waves are consistent,but the influence of dust density is weaker than that of dust radius due to the constraint of orbit-limited motion(OLM) theory.The plasma thickness,electron density,and incident angle are proportional to the attenuation amplitude of EM waves.The effect of different reentry heights on the attenuation obliquely incident EM waves is related to the electron density and plasma thickness.

An explanation of certain contradictions in the treatment of the charging dynamics of dielectric targets under the effect of electron irradiation

Explanations of contradictory results in some studies of the temporal characteristics of charging dielectric targets via the electron irradiation effect are given. Disagreement is caused by the difference in the times of the appearance of a quasi-equilibrium state of two main parameters of charging, namely, the complete coefficient of secondary electron emission and the surface electrostatic potential.     

Spacecraft charging potential during electron-beam injections intospace plasmas

Injections of nonrelativistic electron beams from an infinite conductor have been simulated by using a two-dimensional electrostatic particle code to study the spacecraft charging potential. The simulations show that the conductor charging potential at the end of simulations does not vary with the beam density when the beam density exceeds four times the ambient density. The reflection coefficient, which determines a percentage of incident electrons reflected by the conductor, increases the charging potential. To charge the conductor to the beam energy, the reflection coefficient needs to be about 0.5. The results are applied to explain the spacecraft charging potential measured during the SEPAC (Space Experiments with Particle Accelerators) experiments from Spacelab 1     

Spatial structure of an incompressible quantum Hall strip

The incompressible quantum Hall strip is sensitive to charging of localized states in the cyclotron gap. We study the effect of localized states by a density functional approach and find electron density and the strip width as a function of the density of states in the gap. Another important effect is electron exchange. By using a model density functional which accounts for negative compressibility of the QH state, we find electron density around the strip. At large exchange, the density profile becomes nonmonotonic. Both effects, localized states and exchange, lead to a substantial increase of the strip width.

Charging dynamics of a polymer due to electron irradiation： A simultaneous scattering-transport model and preliminary results

<正>We present a novel numerical model and simulate preliminarily the charging process of a polymer subjected to electron irradiation of several 10 keV.The model includes the simultaneous processes of electron scattering and ambipolar transport and the influence of a self-consistent electric field on the scattering distribution of electrons.The dynamic spatial distribution of charges is obtained and validated by existing experimental data.Our simulations show that excess negative charges are concentrated near the edge of the electron range.However,the formed region of high charge density may extend to the surface and bottom of a kapton sample,due to the effects of the electric field on electron scattering and charge transport,respectively.Charge trapping is then demonstrated to significantly influence the charge motion.The charge distribution can be extended to the bottom as the trap density decreases.Charge accumulation is therefore balanced by the appearance and increase of leakage current.Accordingly,our model and numerical simulation provide a comprehensive insight into the charging dynamics of a polymer irradiated by electrons in the complex space environment.

Analysis on surface charging of insulator prior to flashover in vacuum

Prior to the flashover across an insulator in vacuum, the insulator surface is usually charged. It is of great importance to investigate the charging phenomena for better understanding the flashover characteristics. It is considered that there are two kinds of mechanisms closely related to the surface charging of insulator i.e., the secondary electron emission occurred over an insulator, and while employing a perfect electrode contact ahead of electron emission into vacuum, the charge injection and accumulation occurred inside the surface layer of an insulator. Based on the rigorous analysis of the kinetic processes of both primary and secondary electrons, the related surface charges were theoretically deduced. Involving the detrapping of charges trapped and the recombination of charges injected, the charging process due to charge injection and accumulation was analyzed. Some formulas were given to express the density of surface charges.
