Abstract

The results of temperature and concentration measurements of secondary electrons in a free jet of argon, activated in an electron beam plasma, carried out using a Langmuir double electrostatic probe. A cold plasmotron prototype with a primary beam energy of 1 keV is used obtain a jet of dense cold plasma with a transverse size of approximately 80 mm and parameters with which silicon layers may be deposited with necessary characteristics in a forvacuum pressure range.
