Production of High Energy Electrons in Microwave Plasma
Keywords:
high energy electron, PIC-MCC, surface-wave plasma, microwave plasmaAbstract
High energy electrons are produced and play an important role such as radical particle production in microwave
plasma. It was investigated how high energy electrons were produced through PIC-MCC simulations.
The results show that the high energy electrons gain their energy when they pass the E-field of
a resonantly excited electron plasma wave by a microwave around cut-off density, and the acquisition
energy depends on the timing and their velocity of electrons entering into a resonant region.
