Optical plasma emission spectroscopy of etching plasmas used in Si-based semiconductor processing
Previously published applications of optical emission spectroscopy as a quantitative plasma diagnostic technique are reviewed. By adding traces of rare gases to the plasma, electron temperatures (Te) and relative electron and ion densities can be determined from electron impact-induced optical emission. Excitation from both the ground state and metastable states of the rare gases must be consid...
متن کاملDouble Langmuir probe measurement of plasma parameters in a dc glow discharge
In this paper, plasma main characteristics such as electron mean temperature, electron number density, and oscillation frequency have been measured experimentally using the double Langmuir probe diagnostic system. In our experiment, the plasma was generated by applying the low pressure dc glow discharge in several common gases. The experimental results indicated the highest plasma density and o...
متن کاملModeling of a millisecond pulsed glow discharge: Investigation of the afterpeak
We have developed a comprehensive modeling network for a millisecond pulsed glow discharge in argon (Ar) with copper (Cu) cathode, to describe the behavior of the various plasma species. Typical results of the model are shown, such as the potential distribution during and after the pulse, the densities of Ar ions, Ar atoms in the metastable and various other excited levels, Cu atoms and Cu ions...
متن کاملCharacterization of the metastable Cu-Fe nanoparticles prepared by the mechanical alloying route
Although Cu and Fe are immiscible under equilibrium conditions, they can form supersaturated solid solutions by mechanical alloying. In this paper, nano-structured of the metastable Cu-Fe phase containing 10, 15, 20 and 25% wt Fe were synthesized by intensive ball milling for 15h, in order to achieve a solid solution of Fe in Cu. The phase composition, dissolution of the Fe atoms into the Cu ma...
متن کاملOptical emission spectroscopy and Langmuir probe diagnostics of CH3F/O2 inductively coupled plasmas
A CH3F:O2 (50%:50%) inductively coupled discharge, sustained in a compact plasma reactor, was investigated as a function of power (20–400 W) and pressure (9–30 mTorr), using optical emission spectroscopy and Langmuir probe measurements. The electron density increased linearly with power but only weakly with pressure. The effective electron temperature was nearly independent of power and pressur...
