Oxygen discharges diluted with argon: dissociation processes

Gudmundsson, J T, Thorsteinsson, E G·2007·Plasma Sources Science and Technology

Abstract

We use a global (volume averaged) model to study the dissociation processes and the presence of negative ions and metastable species in a low pressure high density O 2 /Ar discharge in the pressure range 1–100 mTorr. The electron density and the fractional dissociation of the oxygen molecule increases with increased argon content in the discharge. We relate this increase in fractional dissociation to an increase in the reaction rate for electron impact dissociation of the oxygen molecule which is due to the increased electron temperature with increased argon content in the discharge. The electron temperature increases due to higher ionization potential of argon than for molecular and atomic oxygen. We find the contribution of dissociation by quenching of the argon metastable Ar m by molecular oxygen (Penning dissociation) to the creation of atomic oxygen to be negligible. The negative oxygen ion O − is found to be the dominant negative ion in the discharge. Dissociative attachment of the oxygen molecule in the ground state and in particular the metastable oxygen molecule O 2 ( a 1 Δ g ) are the dominating channels for creation of the negative oxygen ion O − .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
