Capacitively Coupled Atmospheric RF Microplasma Devices
We designed and fabricated planar, four-terminal, atmospheric, capacitively coupled (CC), helium RF micro plasma devices (MPDs). The operational characteristics of the MPDs are investigated. The microplasma field effect transistors (FETs) are fabricated and investigated, showing that the plasma current can be controlled by a gate bias. The stability of the MPDs is tested under harsh conditions ...
متن کاملParametric instability in a collisional dusty plasma
The present work investigates the parametric instability of parallel propagating circularly polarized Alfvén pump waves in a collisional dusty plasma. It is demonstrated that the relative drift between the charged dust and the electrons and ions gives rise to the Hall effect resulting in the modified pump wave characteristics. Although the linearized fluid equations with periodic coefficients a...
متن کاملTitan ’ s upper atmosphere reactivity with a RF - capacitively coupled N 2 - CH 4 plasma
Titan is the largest satellite of Saturn. It has a dense atmosphere of 1.5 bar at the surface mainly composed of nitrogen and methane. One of the most important results delivered by the ongoing Cassini space mission was to affirm that Titan’s aerosols are synthesized in the upper atmosphere [1]. However, the Cassini mission has also highlighted the incompleteness of our knowledge on Titan’s ion...
متن کاملDusty Plasma Dynamics During a Void Instability: Heartbeat Instability
When a three-dimensional dust cloud is present in a plasma, a dust-free region, called void, is usually observed in the plasma centre. Forces involved in the void existence are an inward electrostatic force and an outward ion drag one. Under certain conditions, this force balance can be disturbed and this region exhibits a self-excited unstable behaviour consisting in successive contractions an...
متن کاملFormation of Coulomb Crystals in a Capacitively Coupled Plasma
Dust particle transport in low-temperature plasmas has received considerable attention due to the desire to minimize contamination of wafers during plasma processing of microelectronic devices and as their use to study nonideal plasmas. Observations of dust particles in radio frequency discharges have shown that particles form Coulomb crystals and display collective behavior. Images are present...
