Research paper thumbnail of CAPACITIVELY COUPLED HYDROGEN DISCHARGES: MODELING VS. EXPERIMENT

High Temperature Material Processes, 2004

A good quantitative agreement is found between calculation and experiment for the coupled electrical power and the plasma potential, at various frequencies, pressures and applied voltages. However, the model generally underestimates the electron density and the self-bias potential with respect to measured values. Model predictions for the absolute density of H(n=1) atoms are compared to first diagnostic results, obtained by two-photon absorption laser-induced fluorescence diagnostics at various pressures and frequencies.

The transport description of the charged species uses the corresponding first three moments of the Boltzmann equation: continuity, momentum transfer and mean energy transfer (the last one only for electrons), coupled with the Poisson equation. An original method is proposed to treat the transport equations. Electron and ion momentum transport equations are reduced to the classical drift-diffusion expression for the fluxes since the presence of the magnetic field is introduced as an additional part in the electron flux, while for ions an effective electric field was considered. Thus, both continuity and mean energy transfer equations are solved in a classical manner. Numerical simulations were performed considering argon as a buffer gas, with a neutral pressure varying between 5 and 30 mTorr, for different voltages applied on the cathode. Results obtained for densities of the charged particle, fluxes and plasma potential are in good agreement with those obtained in previous studies.

We report three different distortions that are essentially characterized by two nearest neighbor distances, d'0~10 and d''0~9.2 Å. The excellent accord with theoretical calculations supports the view that these new carbon phases can be understood

Pure and mixed phase polymeric samples were synthesized by simultaneously subjecting microcrystalline C60 powder or pellets to various pressures ( \valunit{1}{GPa} ) and temperatures ( \valunit{250}{\celsius} ). The optical spectra of the orthorhombic, tetragonal, and rhombohedral C60 polymer phases are observed to be quite distinct and rich. These spectra exhibit numerous lines and an overall downshift in frequency relative to C60 is observed, consistent with a loss of double bonds from the fullerene cage. The LDMS spectra of a sample synthesized at \valunit{2}{GPa} under hydrostatic conditions and \valunit{350}{\celsius} , exhibited a succession of \sim 12 clear peaks at mass numbers corresponding to (\chem{C_{60}})_{{N} = 1, 2\ldots 12} , similar to the LDMS data on the C60 photopolymer. This is taken as further evidence for interfullerene bonds in these high-pressure polymers. The XRD pattern of this sample indicates the presence of a strong texture in the sample.
