الكلمات المفتاحية:
Monte Carlo simulation، glow discharge، radio frequency، plasmaالملخص
Interest in radio frequency (rf) discharges has grown tremendously in recent years due to their importance in microelectronic technologies. Especially interesting are the properties of discharges in electronegative gases which are most frequently used for technological applications. Monte Carlo simulation have become increasingly important as a simulation tool particularly in the area of plasma physics. In this work, we present some detailed properties of rf plasmas obtained by Monte Carlo simulation code, in SF6التنزيلات
