The delta synchronization is a useful method to analyze appearance of chaotic synchronization in gas discharge systems. In recent studies, the generalized synchronization method has been implemented in various gas discharge systems. However, synchronization is not detected with this conventional method. In our previous study, we introduced the delta synchronization method and applied it to the gas discharge-semiconductor system (GDSS) via the one-dimensional ‘simple’ fluid model approach. In the present study, we implement this method in the more detailed (in terms of plasma chemical reactions and treatment of the electron transport) fluid model, namely the ‘extended’ fluid model or ‘local mean energy approximation’ model. The description of the GDSS model is given, and a bifurcation diagram demonstrates the system's transition to the chaotic regime. The unpredictable motion, which proves the existence of Poincaré chaos, and the delta synchronized motion are confirmed by the numerical simulations, and corresponding algorithms are given. The time sequences corresponding to the unpredictability and delta synchronization are presented in tables. For consistency, the absence of generalized synchronization is also shown via the auxiliary system approach. The numerical characteristics indicating the degrees of chaos and synchronization are described and implemented in the analysis. These features are also used to compare our results to the simpler model.

Zhou, Chen; Yuan, Chengxun; Kudryavtsev, Anatoly; Yasar Katircioglu, T.; Rafatov, İsmail; Yao, Jingfeng (2023-01-01)
This work is devoted to the numerical study of characteristics of dielectric barrier discharge maintained in a coaxial reactor in atmospheric pressure CO2. The numerical model is based on the drift-diffusion theory of gas discharges, and takes into account the gas heating in a self-consistent manner. The effect of incorporating gas heating into the discharge properties, specifically, on CO2 decomposition, is investigated for wide range of amplitude and frequency of the applied voltage.

The work deals with the study of nonlinear oscillations in a system, consisted of planar glow discharge layer, coupled to a high-ohmic semiconductor layer. The whole system is sandwiched between two planar electrodes, to which the DC voltage is applied. The discharge models are developed in Comsol Multiphysics (v5.2), and based on fluid description of plasma, with drift-diffusion approximation for charged particle fluxes.

Micro processing by intense fast electron beam
Goktas, H; Kirkici, H; Oke, G; Udrea, M (2001-06-22)
Generation of intense electron beams by superposing two discharges, namely a low pressure do glow discharge and a high current pulsed discharge at pressures and voltages very similar to that of the pseudo-spark gap devices, has been reported previously [1, 2]. The small diameter, high peak current and short pulse length are the characteristics of the electron beam generated using this technique. In this technique, no high vacuum facilities are necessary, and many applications such as micro processing, X-ray...

Salamov, BG; Ellialtioglu, S; Akınoğlu, Bülent Gültekin; Lebedeva, NN; Patriskii, LG (IOP Publishing, 1996-03-14)
The physical processes determining the functions of an ionization system and especially the discharge stabilization by the distributed resistance of a semiconducting cathode in such a system are studied. The current-voltage (I-U) characteristics of the system with a semiconducting GaAs cathode are obtained experimentally as functions of the gap pressure P (16-760 Torr) and inter-electrode distance d (10 mu m to 5 mm), which are varied for the first time over very wide ranges. The experiments showed that the...

Kaymazlar, Koray; Rafatov, İsmail; Department of Physics (2017)
The work deals with numerical investigation of physical processes in the gas discharge plasma. Numerical models are based on the fluid description of plasma, with drift-diffusion approximation for charged particle fluxes. First, we developed a “simple” fluid model, consisted of continuity equations for electrons and ions, coupled to Poisson equation for electric field. Next, we extended this model by incorporating the electron Boltzmann equation module, such that the electron transport parameters (mobility ...
