Description: A one-dimensional, electrostatic Particle-in-cell code in spherical geometry by Helen Smith.
Computational Studies of an Asymmetric rf Plasma using Particle-in-cell Techniques Computational Studies of an Asymmetric rf Plasma using Particle-in-cell Techniques A one-dimensional, electrostatic Particle-in-cell code in spherical geometry has been used to simulate low pressure, asymmetric, rf discharges. The simulation consists of two concentric, spherical electrodes, between which a plasma is generated. The inner electrode is connected to a voltage source through an external circuit, which can include a variable capacitor and resistor; the outer electrode is grounded. Electrons and ions are modelled explicitly by the simulation, and neutrals are included implicitly as a background gas pressure. Ion and electron motion is included and both species can make binary collisions with the neutrals. The simulation uses realistic ion masses and collision cross-sections for each species. Electrons make ionisation, excitation and elastic scattering collisions; while ions can undergo charge exchange and elastic scattering collisions.
