Surface wave plasma source for broad-beam ion and electron production

The new type of multipurpose plasma source based on the surface wave sustained discharge is presented. The plasma in the source is generated by the RF surface wave discharge excited by the antenna system placed inside a cylindrical metal chamber. Charged particle acceleration is carried out by a q...

Description
Summary:The new type of multipurpose plasma source based on the surface wave sustained discharge is presented. The plasma in the source is generated by the RF surface wave discharge excited by the antenna system placed inside a cylindrical metal chamber. Charged particle acceleration is carried out by a quasi-stationary electric field due to DC voltage applied to the cylindrical electrode mounted inside the chamber. The source can be used for production and acceleration of ion as well as electron beams. The source has stable low-pressure operation in the range of applied RF power from 50 to 1000 W and produce ion beam having a density up to 0.3 mA/cm2 in the energy range from 50 to 200 eV and 3% homogeneity on the 300 mm diameter.
