Discharge physics

Ozone Generator Design. A better understanding of discharge physics and the chemistry of ozone formation has led to improvements in power density, efficiency, and ozone concentration, initiating a trend toward downsizing. 

Boundary Conditions. To complete the set of equations for the discharge physical structure, boundary conditions are needed. One possible set of boundary conditions is presented in Table II.

Plasma deposition and etch rates are affected by a large number of process parameters and physicochemical processes, illustrated schematically in Fig. 2, making the development and operation of plasma processes difficult. Moreover, given a particular process chemistry, it is not obvious how readily accessible parameters (e.g., feed rate, pressure, power, and frequency) should be manipulated to obtain the desired film uniformity and material properties. Glow discharge physics is complex, and the chemical mechanisms are not well known, in particular those underlying the plasma-surface interactions. Consequently, there is considerable incentive for gaining... 

The case of major interest for discharge physics is that where the number density of ions is very nearly equal to that of the electrons. Clearly because the electron mass is very light these will try to diffuse away from the ions. However, as soon as they do this, an electric field is... 

Although there are several fine monographs available on electron impact phenomena and discharge physics (3, 20, 22, 23), they contain relatively little information on active high frequency discharges which is pertinent to the problem of dissociation and chemical reaction. The electron physics of microwave discharges is discussed in some review articles (2, 13).
