Plasma-liquid systems are significantly investigated due to their high potential in the production of various nanomaterials. In addition to relatively high efficiency and simplified infrastructure, they are ecologic and do not have any risk during handling as they are confined in solution. In this paper, we develop a novel plasma-liquid technique to produce nanoparticles. Indeed, spark...
Recently, it was observed that under high pressure (p > 10Pa), nanoparticles could be created using sputtering magnetron discharges. Although this device has been widely studied at low gas pressure (p < 0.1Pa) for its industrial application such as thin film coating, there is no plasma model at the fairly high pressure range. The study of physical mechanism driving the transport of these...
We present our simple and cost-efficient setup for real-time monitoring of substrate thickness in plasma etching/deposition processes. Thin film interference occurs as light from the plasma passes through the substrate material, by observing the cycles of peaks and troughs in the intensity, the rate of etching/deposition was obtained.
The DC gas discharge is a non-thermal laboratory plasma that is initiated by an applied electric field. It serves as a useful apparatus for studying fundamental phenomena in plasma physics and has found several applications in materials science and engineering. In contrast to thermally ionized plasma, the distribution function of a gas discharge deviates from Maxwellian at low pressures. It is...
