Fully kinetic numerical modeling of a plasma thruster
… and Monte-Carlo Collision (MCC) methodolo- gies. Electron, ion, and neutral dynamics were treated kinetically on the electron time scale to study transport, instabilities, and the electron energy distribution function. Axisymmet- ric R-Z coordinates were used with a non-orthogonal variable mesh to …

Tunneling spectroscopy of carbon nanostructures: a romance in many dimensions
… in carbon nanotubes, which shed light on electron – electron interaction in carbon nanotubes and low dimensional systems in general. We also apply those methods to two dimensional graphene sheets. We first review the fabrication techniques used to make the devices studied here. Some of the …

Decomposition of Carbon Dioxide in a Capacitively Coupled Radio Frequency Discharge
… the CO<sub>2</sub> decomposition process is the electron impact dissociation and the rate of the process depends on the electron density, <em>Ne</em>, the concentration of CO<sub>2</sub>, and the reduced electric field, <em>E</em>/<em>N</em>. A self-consistent model was established to describe …

CO2 monitoring by optical emission spectroscopy and mass spectrometry for CO2 plasmas
… for CO2 containing systems. In addition, the electron energy distribution function of the ICP plasma was measured with Langmuir probe. These results showed a bi-Maxwellian temperature distribution but may require a more rigorous study to confirm. The probe results were connected to a …

Generation and Characterization of Energetic Neutral Beams for Surface Modification
… and plasma imaging was used to study the electron temperature, electron density and electromagnetic structure in the capacitive and inductive modes of operation. Measured average energies in the tail of the electron energy distribution function ranged between 7 and 9 eV in a pressure range …
