Optical and electrical characterization of C3H6O/Ar glow discharge. (March 2015) - Villalobos, S
Abstract: A low pressure glow discharge apparatus was used to produce a glow discharge of C3 H6 O/Ar mixture at a total pressure of 2.0 Torr. The emission spectra were measured in the wavelength range of 200 to 1100 nm. The principal species observed were Ar I, C6 H4 O, C6 H5, CHO, CH3 O, CO2, CO, H2 O, and H2 . The electron temperature and ion density have been measured using a double Langmuir probe, and the electron temperature and ion density were found in the order of 10 eV and 10 10 cm -3 .
