21 Apr 2001 | Journal: | Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 4060 (2000) | Subject: | Chaotic Dynamics; Plasma Physics | nlin.CD physics.plasm-ph | Abstract: | A new simple method to measure the spatial distribution of the electric field in the plasma sheath is proposed. The method is based on the experimental investigation of vertical oscillations of a single particle in the sheath of a low-pressure radio-frequency discharge. It is shown that the oscillations become strongly nonlinear and secondary harmonics are generated as the amplitude increases. The theory of anharmonic oscillations provides a good qualitative description of the data and gives estimates for the first two anharmonic terms in an expansion of the sheath potential around the particle equilibrium. | Source: | arXiv, nlin.CD/0104051 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
