Description

The combined probe that is used for plasma diagnostic
Technical field
The invention belongs to the Plasma Diagnostics field.Be a kind of new combined probe diagnostic techniques that forms based on bright wrong your (Langmuir) single probe is combined with the difference emitting probe, relate to the accurate mensuration of plasma parameter, monitoring in real time and spatial and temporal distributions measurement.
Background technology
At present, bright wrong your (Langmuir) electrostatic probe that is used for plasma diagnostic has single probe, two probe, emitting probe and difference emitting probe etc.The structure of single probe as shown in Figure 1, front end (being probe) is a dystectic fine wire (or little metal disk, or little metal ball), with the lead that is enclosed within the insulating sleeve (or metal sleeve of interior insulation) probe is connected with a scalable power supply.During use, probe portion is placed in the plasma, one of scalable power supply end is connected with probe lead, the other end is connected with plasma chamber wall (this locular wall should have good the contact with plasma), and locular wall is connected with ground, laboratory.And by figure access potentiometer and ammeter.Suppose that plasma is in stable status, regulate regulated power supply and make it apply different current potentials to probe that each current potential (being read by potentiometer) of corresponding probe is by the electric current of ammeter reading flow through probe.With measured probe current potential is abscissa, is the ordinate mapping with the probe current, promptly gets volt-ampere (V-I) characteristic curve (accompanying drawing 2) of the single probe of Langmuir.The voltage-current characteristic of analysis list probe can get the information such as electron temperature, electron density (and ion concentration), space potential, floating potential and Electron energy distribution function of the plasma of surveying.It is worthy of note that, the plasma space current potential generally is that the flex point from single probe volt-ampere characteristic reads, and is commonly called as to be bathmometry here.On the principle, the flex point of single probe volt-ampere characteristic be so a bit, equate with the plasma space current potential at this spot scan voltage, probe current reaches the electronics saturation current, scanning voltage continues to improve, probe current still remains unchanged, be that single probe volt-ampere characteristic is after having crossed the scanning voltage value of corresponding plasma space current potential, should remain a horizontal linear, shown in dotted line in the accompanying drawing 2, meaning promptly when abscissa is the plasma space current potential, a bit fairly obvious flex point can occur; In fact, there are reasons such as edge effect owing to probe, when the probe current potential is higher than the plasma space current potential, probe current still continues slightly to increase, shown in solid line in the accompanying drawing 2, therefore the position of flex point becomes not really definite, and meaning is about to produce the flex point position error, makes that the plasma space potential errors of trying to achieve with single probe bathmometry is bigger.Moreover, because corresponding this abscissa value of plasma space current potential, its ordinate value is electronics saturation current I E0And the electronics saturation current will be used to find the solution electron density (and ion concentration).So, the plasma space current potential than mistake also will cause electron density (and ion concentration) than mistake.As seen it is very important accurately measuring the plasma space current potential.For this reason, emitting probe and difference emitting probe are invented in succession.Difference emitting probe as shown in accompanying drawing 3, it can directly indicate the plasma space current potential of probe present position in real time.Unfortunately, emitting probe or difference emitting probe can only provide the information of plasma space current potential aspect; But people need the information of other parameters toward contact.In this case, people have to adopt two kinds of probes simultaneously: difference emitting probe (or emitting probe) and single probe.Try to achieve the plasma space current potential with the difference emitting probe, on the volt-ampere characteristic of single probe, find out corner position more exactly according to this space potential value again, thereby find out electronics saturation current value more exactly, and then try to achieve electron density (and ion concentration).Though thing has had progress, problem still exists.Please imagine practical situations: if two kinds of probes are installed in same plasma device simultaneously, one is the insertion of two probes, the disturbance that must strengthen the article on plasma body; The 2nd, the plasma space current potential of difference emitting probe position is not necessarily to be exactly the value of single probe position, can only be a kind of approximate, and this just has error.That has just more bothered if use two kinds of probes in succession at same position, and error is also bigger.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to take into account the two advantage of bright wrong your (Langmuir) single probe and difference emitting probe, in conjunction with microcomputer data collection and analysis technology, provide a kind of new high-precision, can gather and analyze data automatically and be convenient to the probe system of experimental observation.
Technical scheme of the present invention is that bright wrong that (Langmuir) single probe and the two integrated being installed in of difference emitting probe are constituted combined probe in the same probe tube, and the distance between single probe and the difference emitting probe is 0.6 millimeter to 2.0 millimeters; The combined probe circuit comprises single probe scanning circuit, difference emitting probe space potential tracking circuit, square wave pulse generating circuit and computer interface circuit.Single probe scanning circuit will be signal with respect to ground, laboratory with respect to probe current conversion of signals virtually by isolating operational amplifier, so that this signal of computer acquisition; The square wave pulse generating circuit is used for the continuous sweep of single probe off line, so that oscilloscope is observed the volt-ampere characteristic of single probe.When with microcomputer when online, finish of the automatic collection of bright wrong your (Langmuir) single probe V-I characteristic curve data by software with the plasma space current potential of difference emitting probe tracking, then software carries out analyzing and processing according to the plasma space current potential that the difference emitting probe provides to bright wrong your (Langmuir) single probe V-I characteristic curve data, thereby draws plasma space current potential, electron density and ion concentration, floating potential, electron temperature and Electron energy distribution function etc.; When with the microcomputer off line, by the scanning of square wave pulse generator continuous trigger V-I characteristic curve, thereby available oscilloscope is observed the V-I characteristic curve, and can read the plasma space current potential from voltmeter at any time.
Effect of the present invention and benefit are detection accuracy and the speed that has significantly improved plasma parameter, but article on plasma body parameter is measured in real time; In conjunction with dynamic seal (packing) mechanism, but article on plasma body parameter is carried out the spatial distribution measurement; Also available oscilloscope Direct observation V-I characteristic curve is convenient to article on plasma body generator and is debugged.
