Abstract:

Effects of magnetic field and antenna configuration on radio-frequency (RF) microdischarge are studied with the HELIC program. The power deposition and electromagnetic wave parameters affected by the external magnetic field were studied under two typical modes, m=0 and m=1, of antenna modulus. For the half helix antenna with m=1, when the critical magnetic field is 10mT, the axial power deposition and RF electric field distribution change from single peak to dual peaks, and the peak value is mainly distributed on both sides of the antenna. However, when the external magnetic field reaches 1mT, the loop antenna with m=0 mainly presents a single peak distribution, and the peak value is located directly below the antenna. Simultaneously, it is found that the critical magnetic field values of loop++ antennas are different at two axial positions (1mT at z=0mm and 9mT at z=±60mm). Finally, the power deposition of loop++ antenna is higher than that of the other two antennas without magnetic field.

摘要:

利用HELIC程序,研究了磁场和天线构型对射频微放电的影响。在天线方位角模数m=0和m=1两类典型模式下,外界磁场总是通过影响射频电场的分布影响天线的功率沉积分布,其中m=1的半螺旋(half helix)天线在达到临界磁场(10mT)后,轴向上的功率沉积分布由单峰转变为双峰分布,且峰值主要分布在天线的两侧;而m=0的环形(loop)天线在外界磁场达到临界值(1mT)后,主要呈现为一个单峰分布,且峰值位于天线正下方。而对并排的两个loop(loop++)天线,发现其不同轴向位置处的临界磁场值不同(z=0mm处为1mT,z=±60mm处为9mT),但是其功率沉积和电磁波受外界磁场的影响与m=0的loop天线类似。在无外磁场条件下,loop++天线的功率沉积相较于其他两种天线的更大。
