Guided-wave-produced plasmas
TL;DR: In this paper, a review on recent development in self-consistent description of high-frequency discharges is presented, based on fluid models of travelling-wave-sustained plasmas and results for the axial structure of discharges in different gases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron release in the afterglow of a pulsed inductively-coupled radiofrequency oxygen plasma
TL;DR: In this paper, a pulsed inductively-coupled radiofrequency plasma in oxygen is investigated by means of time-resolved microwave interferometry in a wide pressure range from 0.5 to 200 Pa.
Journal ArticleDOI
A small radius hydrogen discharge: An effective source of volume produced negative ions
TL;DR: In this paper, the free-fall regime maintenance of hydrogen discharges is analyzed based on numerical solutions of a set of equations involving the balance equations of the charged particles, the three types of the positive ions (H+, H2+, and H3+), and negative H− ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low pressure hydrogen discharges
TL;DR: In this paper, a fluid-plasma model of the free-fall regime of maintenance of high-frequency discharges in hydrogen is presented, where the importance of the directed motion of the charged particles in the radial dc electric field, the negative ion behavior in the discharge, and the description of the discharge characteristics by continuous radial profiles, which smoothly cover the total cross section of discharge, are stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Negative hydrogen ion maintenance in small radius discharges: Two-dimensional modeling
TL;DR: The results from a two-dimensional model of hydrogen discharges sustained in a single-chamber small radius plasma source presented in this paper show that when the plasma maintenance is nonlocal, the conditions ensuring high concentration of the negative ions are formed by the behavior of the entire discharge structure and, in particular, of the fluxes in the discharge.
