研究目的
The main aim of this study is to identify the suitable parameters for igniting a sustainable plasma that produces some active species such as ozone O3, negative O? and positive O2+ ions, metastable singlet delta-state O2(a1Δg) molecule and atomic oxygen O.
研究成果
The density profiles of charged, neutrals and excited species in low-temperature oxygen plasma, driven by a dual radio-frequency at different input parameters, have been investigated using one-dimensional numerical simulation. The adequate external input parameters leading to an oxygen plasma ignition and sustainability have been identified through the examination of the time-averaged species profiles as a function of the inter-electrode position. The density profiles of electron, ozone O3, negative ions O? and positive ions O2+ decrease when the gas pressure pg increases. However, the density profiles of the metastable singlet delta-state O2(a1Δg) and the neutral atomic O increase when the gas pressure increases.
研究不足
The study is limited to a one-dimensional model and does not account for three-dimensional effects. The model also assumes a constant background gas density and temperature, which may not hold in all experimental conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A self-consistent one-dimensional fluid model of a dual radio-frequency capacitively coupled discharge operating on pure oxygen was developed. The model incorporates five main species and 24 dominant reaction channels.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The simulations have been performed using different input parameters for the same model. The lower frequency flf is kept constant at
3:56 MHz. The background gas density ng is assumed to be constant and the gas temperature Tg is fixed at room temperature 300 K. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The simulation solves a set of coupled differential equations describing the time and space evolution of the densities of both neutral and charged species.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The simulations have been performed using time-dependent partial differential equation solver (PDE’s) general form in COMSOL Multiphysics.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The time-averaged density profiles of electrons, ozone O3, neutral ground-state O atoms, negative ions O?, molecular oxygen ions O2+ and metastable singlet delta-state O2(a1Δg) molecules versus the inter-electrode position x are shown.
