Floating potential of dielectric target in plasma-beam discharge with magnet field

We present the results of investigations of the floating potential compensation of dielectric target in selfsustained plasma beam discharge in the magnetic field. We use gridless single-stage plasma accelerators with closed electron drift and narrow acceleration zone without of additional electron...

Description
Summary:We present the results of investigations of the floating potential compensation of dielectric target in selfsustained plasma beam discharge in the magnetic field. We use gridless single-stage plasma accelerators with closed electron drift and narrow acceleration zone without of additional electron emitter as plasma beam source. When the source of such type works in collimated beam mode, lack of electrons in the ion flow leads to occurrence of positive charge on the target and reduces the efficiency of ion treatment. Existence of additional glow discharge in beam drift space can influence on target potential. We discuss experimental results of measurement of dielectric target potential for different conditions and proposal to solve the problem.
