The non-uniform dc glow discharge plasma system is studied by using isolated computer controlled three couples of double probe system (TCDP)in argon gas, simultaneously. The double probe is more applicable than the single probe in diagnostics, specially in plasma reactors which have insulating or semi-insulating walls. TCDP technique has been developed to use for magnetized, un-magnetized, and for low oscillating plasma systems by using optically isolated circuitry to minimize the measurement errors with higher resolution and accuracy. Changing the shapes and diameters of the tube from region to region leads to change the in plasma properties. As the diameter of the tube is decreased at constant discharge currents, the density increases and the electron temperatures decreases.

The non-uniform dc glow discharge plasma system is studied by using isolated computer controlled three couples of double probe system (TCDP) in argon gas, simultaneously. TCDP system has been developed to use for magnetized, unmagnetized, and for low oscillating plasma systems by using low pass filter with optically isolated circuitry to minimize the measurement errors with higher resolution and accuracy.

Non-uniform axial electric field in argon glow discharge plasma
Akbar, D.; Bilikmen, S. (IOP Publishing, 2006-05-01)
The non-uniform argon dc glow discharge plasma system has been constructed in a very special design to investigate the effects of variable tube radius on plasma parameters. By using isolated computer controlled three couples of a double probe (TCDP) system, the electron temperature, electron density, the reduced electric field, and electron drift velocity are measured at low and intermediate pressures. It is shown that the electron temperature and reduced electric field (density) decreases (increases) as th...
Selective amplification of analyte atomic signals in microwave-boosted glow discharge atomic emission spectrometry
Ulgen, A; Gokmen, A; Leis, F (2001-01-01)
The possibilities of eliminating spectral interferences caused by molecular bands and lines of the plasma gas in a microwave-boosted glow discharge source (MB-GDS) have been investigated. Suitable modulation of one of the two excitation sources and phase sensitive amplification were used to selectively amplify the signals emitted by the sample atoms. The molecular bands or lines of the plasma gas were hardly influenced by the modulation and did not appear in the amplified spectrum. In particular, the OH lin...
Observed nonlinearities in a DC semiconductor-gas discharge system
ÇAYLI, YAVUZ KERİM; MANSUROĞLU, DOĞAN; Uzun Kaymak, İlker Ümit (Canadian Science Publishing, 2018-07-01)
Nonlinear behaviour of a direct current (DC) driven semiconductor-gas discharge plasma is investigated experimentally. The setup consists of two planar electrodes separated by a gap of 1 mm. Plasma glow is generated between a semiconductor cathode and a transparent anode using nitrogen gas at partial atmospheric pressure. Nonlinear behavior of the discharge is investigated by varying the applied DC voltage while monitoring the plasma current (I), voltage (V), and the optical emission, (i.e., amplified volta...
Spectroscopic study and numerical simulation of low-pressure radio-frequency capacitive discharge with argon downstream
Tanisli, Murat; Rafatov, İsmail; Sahin, Neslihan; Mertadam, Sercan; Demir, Suleyman (Canadian Science Publishing, 2017-02-01)
In this study, the characteristic properties and plasma parameters of capacitive radio frequency (RF) argon (Ar) discharge and supplementary discharge at low pressure are investigated with optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The wavelengths of spectral lines from OES are obtained between 650-900 nm. Using OES lines and related experimental data, the electron temperatures for different RF power, flow, and measurement periods are determined. Eventually, the properties of plasma including the electron tempera...
