The applicability of actinometry for measuring the absolute concentration of O, N and F atoms in discharge plasma was studied. For this purpose, concentrations of these atoms …
The effects of electron induced secondary electron (SE) emission from SiO 2 electrodes in single-frequency capacitively coupled plasmas (CCPs) are studied by particle-in-cell/Monte …
In the past three decades, first principles-based fully kinetic particle-in-cell Monte Carlo collision (PIC/MCC) simulations have been proven to be an important tool for the …
The effect of changing the driving frequency on the plasma density and the electron dynamics in a capacitive radio-frequency argon plasma operated at low pressures of a few …
We investigate the effects of secondary electrons (SEs), induced by electrons impinging on the electrodes, on the characteristics of low-pressure single-frequency capacitively coupled …

The particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo collisions (PIC/MCC) simulation approach has become a standard and well-established tool in studies of capacitively coupled radio frequency (RF) …
In most PIC/MCC simulations of radio frequency capacitively coupled plasmas (CCPs) several simplifications are commonly made:(i) fast neutrals are not traced,(ii) heavy particle …
We investigate the electron heating dynamics in electropositive argon and helium capacitively coupled RF discharges driven at 13.56 MHz by particle-in-cell simulations and …
