对于等离子体浸没离子注入(PIII)技术,球形靶鞘层尺度预测对真空室设计、批量处理研究等是十分有用的。但由于球形靶鞘层Child-Langmuir定律数学表达的非线性使得工程应用较为困难。本文对球形靶的鞘层尺度进行了数值求解、讨论了注入参数对鞘层尺度的影响。计算结果表明,鞘层厚度(包括离子阵鞘层和稳态鞘层)随球体半径或注入电压增加而增加,随等离子体密度增加而减小。但对于不同的参数区间,鞘层特性对参数的变化表现出不同的敏感性。当等离子体密度较高、注入电压较低时,稳态鞘层厚度对于靶体半径的变化极不敏感。相反鞘层厚度对靶体大小变化较为敏感。虽然平面靶与球形靶的离子阵鞘层尺度比值与等离子体密度及球体半径有关,但平面靶稳态鞘层尺度总是大于球形靶的。这对于实际的PIII应用具有重要的指导意义。
對于等離子體浸沒離子註入(PIII)技術,毬形靶鞘層呎度預測對真空室設計、批量處理研究等是十分有用的。但由于毬形靶鞘層Child-Langmuir定律數學錶達的非線性使得工程應用較為睏難。本文對毬形靶的鞘層呎度進行瞭數值求解、討論瞭註入參數對鞘層呎度的影響。計算結果錶明,鞘層厚度(包括離子陣鞘層和穩態鞘層)隨毬體半徑或註入電壓增加而增加,隨等離子體密度增加而減小。但對于不同的參數區間,鞘層特性對參數的變化錶現齣不同的敏感性。噹等離子體密度較高、註入電壓較低時,穩態鞘層厚度對于靶體半徑的變化極不敏感。相反鞘層厚度對靶體大小變化較為敏感。雖然平麵靶與毬形靶的離子陣鞘層呎度比值與等離子體密度及毬體半徑有關,但平麵靶穩態鞘層呎度總是大于毬形靶的。這對于實際的PIII應用具有重要的指導意義。

It is of great practical importance to predict the sheath evolution during plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII)of spherical targets in order to properly design the vacuum chamber and treatment processes.However,owing to non-linearity,it is difficult to solve the Child-Langmuir equation to elucidate the sheath dynamics directly in pracitical circumstances.In this paper, sheath scaling for PIII into a spherical target is investigated using numerical methods.Our results demonstrate that the sheath thickness,including the initial ion-matrix sheath and final steady-state sheath,increases with the increase of the spherical radius or applied voltage,and decreases with increasing plasma density.The sheath scale varies to a different degree with respect to parameter change for different processing conditions.For a high plasma density and low applied voltage,the steady-state sheath thickness is more or less insensitive to variations in the spherical radius,but it is very sensitive under other conditions.The ratio of the ion-matrix sheath thickness of a planar target to that of a spherical target depends considerably on the plasma density and the spherical radius.In fact,the steady-state sheath thickness of a planar target is more than that of a spherical target regardless of changes in the plasma density or target size.Our results are important to the design of practical PIII processes.
