Retarding field energy analyzer for the JET plasma boundary
Retarding field analyzers ~RFAs! are essentially the only practical tool with which to measure the distribution of ion energies in the boundary plasma of magnetic fusion devices. The technique has long been attempted in such facilities with varying degrees of success, but, by virtue of the delicate nature of these material probes and the hostile environment in which they are inserted, its use h...
متن کاملSimulation of a Helium Atmospheric Plasma Jet Using Fluid Equations
In this study, a cold atmospheric He plasma jet is investigated. The jet is of dielectric barrier discharge type, consisting of a dielectric tube with two metal ring electrodes. The continuity, momentum and energy conservation equations as well as the Poisson equation for obtaining the potential and the electric field, accompanied with the ideal gas laws, are used for the simulation. The result...
متن کاملControl of ion energy distributions using a pulsed plasma with synchronous bias on a boundary electrode
Ion energy distributions (IEDs) on a grounded substrate in a Faraday-shielded argon inductively coupled plasma were measured with a retarding field energy analyzer. A Langmuir probe was also used to measure spaceand time-resolved plasma parameters. IEDs and plasma parameters were studied with continuous or pulsed positive dc bias voltage on a ‘boundary electrode’ in contact with the plasma. For...
متن کاملA novel gridded retarding field energy analyzer for IEDF measurement
A retarding field energy analyzer (RFEA) has been designed and developed to measure ion energy distribution function (IEDF) in helicon plasma. To design RFEA, determination of shape, size of the analyzer orifice, choice of grid and their separations are discussed. The four grid energy analyzer assembly provides easy access of all internal mechanical components and electrical connections. Fundam...
متن کاملAn experimental investigation of alternative propellants for the helicon double layer thruster
Ion energy distribution functions are measured using a retarding field energy analyser located 7.5 cm downstream of a helicon double layer plasma source, respectively, operating with four molecular gases: nitrogen (N2), methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3) and nitrous oxide (N2O). For radiofrequency powers of a few hundred watts, and a magnetic field diverging from about 0.013 T (130 G) in the source t...
