Abstract
Ion dynamics in the plasma sheath following the application of a negat ive voltage pulse to a two-dimensional target are modeled using a time -dependent, two-fluid simulation. The target considered is a square ba r of infinite length. We find that the sheath focuses ions near to, bu t not on, the comer of the bar, resulting in an enhancement of the dos e received there.
