harmonics, a dc self-bias can be generated as a function of the phase shift between the
driving frequencies via the Electrical Asymmetry Effect (EAE). Recently, the Secondary
Electron Asymmetry Effect (SEAE) was discovered (Lafleur et al., J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 46,
135201 (2013)): unequal secondary electron emission coefficients at both electrodes were
found to induce an asymmetry in single-frequency capacitive plasmas. Here, we investigate …
Summary form only given. In geometrically symmetric capacitive radio-frequency plasmas
driven by two consecutive harmonics a dc self-bias can be generated as a function of the
phase shift between the driving frequencies via the Electrical Asymmetry Effect (EAE)[1].
Recently the Secondary Electron Asymmetry Effect (SEAE) was discovered (T. Lafleur, P.
Chabert and JP Booth J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 46 135201 (2013)): unequal secondary
electron emission coefficients at both electrodes were found to induce an asymmetry in …
