J. Deson et al., DETECTION OF H-ATOMS IN THE FLOWING AFTERGLOW OF A H-2 MICROWAVE PLASMA BY MULTIPHOTON LASER-INDUCED FLUORESCENCE - ATOM-REMOVAL KINETICS, Journal of physics. D, Applied physics, 27(11), 1994, pp. 2320-2328
A multiphoton (2+1) absorption laser-induced fluorescence diagnostic i
s employed for determination of the spatial distribution of atomic hyd
rogen density in the post-discharge of a low-pressure microwave-induce
d H-2 plasma, using one pulsed frequency-doubled dye laser. H atom den
sity profiles are described by a simple diffusion equation and the pro
bability of recombination of H atoms on silica is deduced from the pro
files.
