Optical emission spectroscopy of reactive plasmas: A method for correlating emission intensities to reactive particle density

View publication

Abstract

The addition of a small concentration of suitably chosen noble gas to a reactive plasma is shown to permit the determination of the functional dependence of reactive particle density on plasma parameters. Examples illustrating the simplicity of this method are presented using F atomic emission from plasma-etching discharges and a comparison is made to available data in the literature.
