Download or read book The Plasma Boundary of Magnetic Fusion Devices written by P.C Stangeby and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Plasma Boundary of Magnetic Fusion Devices introduces the physics of the plasma boundary region, including plasma-surface interactions, with an emphasis on those occurring in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. The book covers plasma-surface interaction, Debye sheaths, sputtering, scrape-off layers, plasma impurities, recycling and control, 1D and 2D fluid and kinetic modeling of particle transport, plasma properties at the edge, diverter and limiter physics, and control of the plasma boundary. Divided into three parts, the book begins with Part 1, an introduction to the plasma boundary. The derivations are heuristic and worked problems help crystallize physical intuition, which is emphasized throughout. Part 2 provides an introduction to methods of modeling the plasma edge region and for interpreting computer code results. Part 3 presents a collection of essays on currently active research hot topics. With an extensive bibliography and index, this book is an invaluable first port-of-call for researchers interested in plasma-surface interactions.

Book excerpt: This study is concerned with an experimental investigation of the static and dynamic properties of the plasma sheath. The basic experimental technique was to pass an electron beam through the sheath parallel to the wall and, by measuring the deflection of the beam, transverse dc and rf electric fields in the sheath are measured. Measurements of the dc fields are compared with a theory based on a solution of the complete plasma-sheath equation. By means of this comparison it is possible to accurately evaluate the plasma parameters n sub e and T sub e. It is found that in the quiescent sheath, no rf fields are detected that exceed the sensitivity limit of the measurements, which is 1 v/cm. To observe the variation of externally applied rf fields through the sheath and plasma, rf voltage is applied to the plate forming the sheath, and the phase and amplitude of the resulting fields in the plasma are measured with the electron beam by using a null technique. The results are compared with a theory based on an integration of the collisionless Boltzmann equation. The boundary conditions of waves propagating in the plasma are determined by the rf properties of the sheath, and in some cases sheath losses can form the principal source of attenuation for such waves.

Book excerpt: The main purpose of this study was to obtain a thorough understanding of the static and rf properties of the sheath of a low pressure discharge plasma, and to arrive at simplified boundary conditions for rf fields which take account of the presence of the sheath at the edge of the plasma. Theoretical and experimental studies of both the rf and dc properties of the sheath have been undertaken and good agreement obtained between theory and experiment.
