AbstractBehaviour of sheath formed on two types of probes, namely cylindrical and spherical probes, has been investigated in terms of its thickness, in front of the conducting probes immersed in an electronegative plasma for different negative to positive ion mass ratios, by considering three electronegative gases, i.e. CF4, O2 and C60. Contrary to others’ work, […]
An E×B plasma is important for various applications including Hall thrusters and magnetic nozzle for long-lasting space propulsion. Such a cross field arrangement in inductively coupled plasma plays vital role in film deposition and etching that are the basic ingredients in semiconductor industries; though in these applications, only the electrons are magnetized which enhance the […]
