10 Frontiers in Low Temperature Plasma Diagnostics Book of Abstracts 10 th Frontiers in Low Temperature Plasma Diagnostics April 28 th – May 2nd 2013 Rolduc, Kerkrade, The Netherlands Book of Abstracts We wish to express a warm welcome to all attendees to the 10 th Workshop on Frontiers in Low Temperature Plasma Diagnostics (FLTPD) in the historic Conference Centre Rolduc, Kerkrade, the Netherlands from 28 th of April to 2 nd of May. The Workshop is the continuation of a very successful biennial series that began in 1995 at Les Houches (France). It is co- organized by the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and the Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research (DIFFER), two institutions which are strongly involved in the plasma physics and technology research in the Netherlands. The workshop offers the opportunity to present recent results on plasma diagnostics. The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts in the field of low temperature plasma diagnostics. It is an important and fruitful opportunity for the new generation of plasma scientists to share and discuss the knowledge of these diagnostics with the leading scientists of the field. To facilitate interaction among participants free time is scheduled on Monday and Tuesday afternoon. In line with the nine previous meetings, the program consists of expert presentations from 10 invited speakers, 16 topical speakers and 57 posters. Several companies will exhibit their products. The excursion on Wednesday is to the historical city of Aix-la-Chapelle / Aachen where a guided tour of the cathedral or the city is arranged. The conference dinner is on Wednesday evening. During the conference dinner, two prizes will be awarded for the best poster and the best oral presentation for which only students are eligible. The number of participants for the 10 th FLTPD is 87 and participants are coming from 18 different countries. Special thanks are for the members of the International Scientific Committee of the 10 th FLTPD for the selection of invited speakers, the review of submitted papers and the organization of the scientific program. The invaluable financial supports from the Royal Dutch Academy of Sciences and the sponsors is greatly appreciated and allowed us to reduce the conference fees, particularly in a significant amount for the students. Our gratitude goes to the Local Organizing Committee members for all their efforts in preparing and organizing the meeting. On behalf of the LOC and ISC, we wish the participants an interesting scientific meeting, fruitful discussions, new exciting scientific ideas and a wonderful stay in Kerkrade. We would like to express our gratitude for all your contributions and participation in this event as it is the corner stone of a successful scientific meeting.

His motivation for building a new religious community was the dissatisfaction with the lack of discipline in the collegiate church at Tournai (in present-day Belgium). Adelbert, Count of Saffenberg from Mayschoß an der Ahr (in the German Eifel), the owner of the castle in Herzogenrath, gave him permission to settle on a tract of his land and to build a small chapel. Ailbertus got support from Embrico von Mayschoß and his family; they donated all their possessions to the young community. In 1106, they started to build a stone crypt and laid the foundations to the future monastic church. The first abbot of the monastic community was Abbot Richer who came from Rottenburch in Bavaria. The community was made up of canons regular (Augustinians) who initially lived according to extremely strict principles. Community life, prayers, lack of possessions, fasting and manual work were all part and parcel of the daily cycle. In 1136 the land of Rode, including the abbey, fell into the hands of the Duchy of Limburg. During the 12th and 13th century Kloosterra flourished. In 1250 the abbey owned more than 3,000 hectares of land and the number of regulars grew steadily. The library developed into one of the most important of its age and the abbey provided pastoral and spiritual care to many parishes throughout the Netherlands. Other communities were founded by Kloosterrade: Marienthal in the Ahr valley of the Eifel, Sinnich near Aubel (B) and Hooidonk near Eindhoven. Five communities in Friesland were placed under the authority of the Abbot of Kloosterrade, the most important of these being the Abbey of Ludingakerke. During the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries times were harder for the abbey in both spiritual and material terms. The buildings were heavily damaged during the Eighty Years War. Prosperity began again in the late 17th century when revenue was generated from the exploitation of coal mines. In around 1775, the abbey employed 350 mineworkers. The abbey was dissolved by the French in 1796 and the canons regular were forced to leave the community. It is around this time that a new name for the abbey wad adopted, the French name for Herzogenrath (Rode- le-Duc = Rolduc). The buildings stood empty for 35 years. In 1815, when the Kingdom of the Netherlands was formed (see Vienna Congress), the border was drawn through the ancient land of Rode, separating the abbey from the castle. The eastern part (including the castle) became Prussian Herzogenrath and the western part (including the abbey) became part of the Dutch municipality of Kerkrade. In the 19th century Rolduc became a famous boarding school run by Jesuits, and a seminary of the Diocese of Roermond. Many influential Dutch Roman were educated at Rolduc. The former abbey is now a secondary school (Charlemagne College, formerly College Rolduc), a Roman Catholic seminary, and the Rolduc Congress Center. This 12th century abbey church is an example of Mosan art. The crypt, the choir and chancel above have a cloverleaf pattern. The interior of both the church and the crypt contains richly carved capitals. Remarkable is the fact that the columns in the crypt all have a different design. In 1853, the young architect Pierre Cuypers was commissioned to restore the crypt and to reinstate as much as possible the original Romanesque fabric. The cloisters are largely 18th century. The abbey has a richly decorated Rococo library with an important collection of books. During the Middle Ages, the Rolduc library was one of the most famous libraries in the Meuse region. The history of the abbey was recorded in the so-called Annales Rodenses, a chronicle about the years between 1104-1157. The interior painting above the altar is by the Nazarene movement painter Matthias Goebbels. Kerkrade – the city and the surroundings The history of Kerkrade is closely linked with that of the adjacent town of Herzogenrath, just across the German border. Herzogenrath began as a settlement, called Rode, near the river Worm (or Wurm in German) in the 11th century. In 1104 Augustinian monks founded an abbey, called Kloosterrade, to the west of this settlement. One part of the border between the Netherlands and Germany runs along the middle of the street Nieuwstraat/Neustraße. Because of relatively unrestricted cross-border travel within the European Union, this border was for many years marked only with a low wall, about 30 cm high, running along the length of the street. There was a separate 2-way road on each side, and cars had to pass through the official crossing points, but pedestrians could readily step over the wall (although there were signs informing of the border). In 1995, it was decided to remove the wall completely. Nieuwstraat/Neustraße is now a single two-way road, with the extra space now occupied with trees and bicycle lanes. The border is unmarked, and is crossed even when going round a roundabout or overtaking a vehicle. The appearance of the present-day Kerkrade is closely connected to its coal mining history. Kerkrade was the oldest mining town in the Netherlands. Coal was being mined here as far back as the Middle Ages. The mining history in the twentieth century would ultimately define the image of the whole region. Since the closing of the mines in 1965, the former mining sites were restructured in the “black to green” operation. On the Market Place is the miner’s statue ‘d’r Joep’, The Nulland Shaft has been rebuilt into an atelier and the sites where the slag was once dumped have been transformed into green walking areas. Places of interest in Kerkrade are the city park, the botanical garden, GaiaZOO (a modern zoo where animals live in roomy, natural enclosures), Discovery Center Continium (not a museum with showcases, but a journey through time, science, industry and society) and the Rolduc Abbey. A steam train of the South Limburg Steam Train Society runs to and from Kerkrade via the ‘Miljoenenlijntje’. Finally Kasteel Erenstein is another lovely place worth visiting. This 18th century castle is situated at the edge of the Anstel Valley. In and around Kerkrade there are many green areas.

E-mail: [email protected] MS received 14 April 2012; revised 16 January 2013; accepted 26 February 2013 Abstract. Electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma was produced at 2.45 GHz using 200– 750 W microwave power. The plasma was produced from argon gas at a pressure of 2 × 10−4 mbar. Three water-cooled solenoid coils were used to satisfy the ECR resonant conditions inside the plasma chamber. The basic parameters of plasma, such as electron density, electron temperature, floating potential, and plasma potential, were evaluated using the current–voltage curve using a Langmuir probe. The effect of microwave power coupling to the plasma was studied by varying the microwave power. It was observed that the optimum coupling to the plasma was obtained for ∼ 600 W microwave power with an average electron density of ∼ 6 × 1011 cm−3 and average electron temperature of ∼ 9eV. Keywords. Electron cyclotron resonance plasma, Langmuir probe, electron density, electron temperature. PACS Nos 52.50.Dg; 52.70.–m; 52.50.Sw 1. Introduction The electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma is an established source for delivering high current, high brightness, stable ion beam, with significantly higher lifetime of the source. Such a source has been widely used for producing singly and multiply charged ion beams of low to high Z elements [1–3], for research in materials sciences, atomic and molecular physics, and as an accelerator injector [4,5].

Model upošteva geometrijo in obliko sonde, kar je bilo zanemarjeno v prejšnjih približnih obravnavah tega prob­ lema. Čeprav sonda močno zmoti plazmo in lokalno spremeni plazemsko gostoto in potencial, iz določenih delov izmerjene I-V karakteristike sonde je možno določiti nemoteno gostoto plazme, no, elektronsko temperaturo, Te, ter neznani koeficient prečne difuzije glede na smer magnetnega polja, D\. ABSTRACT - Theoretical model of plasma diagnostics with Langmuir probe in a strong magnetic field is presented. The model considers the geometry and the shape of the probe, which have been neglected in previous approximate studies of this problem. Although the plasma is strongly disturbed by the probe and plasma density and potential are locally changed, the unperturbed plasma density, no, the e electron temperature, Te, and the unknown cross-field diffusion coefficient, D lt can be determined from certain parts of the measured I-V characteristics of the probe. 1 Introduction Electrical probes or Langmuir probes are often used in plasma diagnostics be­ cause of their apparent simplicity (a solid object inserted into a plasma) and their easy constructing. They are also widely used in fusion devices for measuring edge plasma parameters. Langmuir probes measure electric currents which depend on their bias voltage with respect to the plasma potential.

Abstract: The Langmuir probe is a feasible method to measure plasma parameters. However, as the reaction progresses in the discharged plasma, the contamination would be attached to the probe surface and lead to a higher incorrect electron temperature. Then, the electron density cannot be obtained. This paper reports a simple approach to combining the Langmuir probe and the optical emission spectrometry (OES), which can be used to obtain the electron temperature to solve this problem. Even the Langmuir probe is contaminative, the probe current–voltage (I–V) curve with the OES spectra also gives the approximate electron temperature and density. A homemade coaxial line microwave plasma source driven by a 2.45 GHz magnetron was adopted to verify this mothed, and the electron temperature and density in different pressure (40–80 Pa) and microwave power (400–800 W) were measured to verify that it is feasible.

    DEPARTMENT OF PLASMA PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGY 91 5. DEPARTMENT OF PLASMA PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGY Head of Department: Prof. Marek Sadowski phone: 7798678 PL9800648 e-mail: [email protected] Overviev In 1996 the main activities of Department P-V (until December 1996 known as the Department of Thermonuclear Research) were concentrated on 5 topics: 1. Selected problems of plasma theory, 2. Studies of phenomena within high-current plasma concentrators, 3. Development of plasma diagnostic methods, 4. Studies in the field of fusion technology, 5. Research on new plasma-ion technologies. Theoretical studies mainly concerned elementary processes occurring within a plasma, and particularly those within near-electrode regions of microwave discharges as well as those within near-wall layers (SOL) of tokamaks. We also developed computational packages for parameter identification and modelling of physical phenomena in pulse plasma coaxial accelerators. Some theoretical studies, e.g. the modelling of a cathode sheath in a magnetron sputtering device, were performed within the frame of a scientific collaboration with the Institut fur Plasmaforschung at Stuttgart University, Germany. Experimental studies were concentrated on the generation of a dense magnetized plasma in different high-current PF (Plasma Focus) facilities and small Z-Pinch devices. We carried out investigations of X-rays, relativistic electron beams (REBs), accelerated primary ions, and fast products of fusion reactions for deuterium discharges. Some experimental studies of high-temperature plasma were performed within the framework of the scientific collaboration with the Institute of Plasma Physics and Laser Microfusion in Warsaw, the Czech Technical University in Prague, the INFIP and IFAS Laboratories in Argentina, and the Institute of Plasma Physics in Kharkov, Ukraine.
