YPI – Low temperature plasma activities Plasma dynamics & chemical kinetics Advanced plasma diagnostics Special emphasis on optical diagnostics & laser spectroscopy Modelling & numerical simulations Technological exploitations Special emphasis on plasma medicine, plasma etching, plasma deposition

Typical OES set-up

Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) line emission which emission lines (qualitative) species absolute intensities (calibration difficult) density of excited species line ratios robust model based analysis (this lecture!) line shapes (high experimental requirements) temperatures, fields, densities temporal variations plasma dynamics continuum radiation spectral distributions absolute intensities

Plasma concepts - CTE Complete thermodynamic equilibrium (CTE) homogeneity unique temperature (Te = Ti = Tgas) black body radiation Maxwell – Boltzmann distribution

Plasma concepts - CTE Maxwell – Boltzmann distribution population distributions Spectroscopy: line intensities and ratios velocity distribution Spectroscopy: line shape, e.g. Doppler effect

Plasma concepts - CTE Main constraints and limitations inhomogeneities Planck Local thermodynamic equilibrium?

Plasma concepts - LTE Local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) local parameters collision dominated equilibrium of collisions no equilibrium of radiation requirement example (hydrogen arc) ne = 1016 cm-3, Te  104 K (Ek - Ei)LTE  4 eV Partial LTE

Plasma concepts - PLTE Partial local thermodynamic equilibrium (PLTE) over population of the ground state LTE for excited states constraints and limitations low electron densities Corona model collisional radiative models

Plasma concepts - Corona Corona model model for plasmas with "low" electron densities (ne < 1013 cm-3) applicable to most technological plasmas far from thermodynamic equilibrium most particles are in the ground state electron impact excitation = relaxation by radiation (spontaneous emission)

Plasma concepts - Corona Corona model electron impact excitation = relaxation by radiation (spontaneous emission) ni : population density of state i Aik : spontaneous emission rate nPh,i : photons per unit volume and time

Plasma concepts - Corona n0 : ground state density Ei : electron impact excitation rate of state i, (depending on ne and Te) i : electron impact excitation cross-section of state i f(E): normalised EEDF i : radiative lifetime

Plasma concepts - Corona steady state of excited states aik : branching ratio RF - discharges

Corona: cascade transitions Additional excitation and de-excitation processes applicable to most technological plasmas cascades from higher electronic states one dominating or effective cascade state nc = ? Aci : transition rate from the cascade state c nc : population densities of the cascade state c

Corona: cascade transitions neglecting second order cascades: Determination of Ec is difficult (reabsorption!)

Corona: stepwise excitation excitation out of metastable states long lifetimes of metastable states transport problem plasma wall interaction complex avoid through proper choice of state i with small cross- sections for excitation out of metastable states (small Ei,m) turn into diagnostics of metastable states by comparing with states excited out of metastable levels

Corona: collisional de-excitation collisional de-excitation (quenching) A* + Q  ? especially important at high pressures! kq : quenching coefficient with species Q nq : density of species Q

Corona: collisional de-excitation q : quenching cross-section, Tgas indepedent Tgas : gas temperature <v> : mean velocity  : reduced mass Importance of Tgas Which quenching partners are present? What are the densities?

Which emission line should I analyse? selection rules for emission lines good quality of electron impact excitation cross-sections (same source!) negligible excitation out of metastables small cascade contribution short lifetimes competition with quenching high intensities high temporal resolution known quenching coefficient (better small) no excitation transfer with other species no spectral overlap with other emission
