RF Argon Plasma Light Emission

Key Points

• The aim is to characterize the stability and optical emission of argon plasma generated by RF ionization.
• Applied RF ionization at 13.56 MHz to generate argon plasma.
• Measured optical emission lines and spectral output under varying pressure.
• Assessed the effects of RF power and magnetic confinement on plasma stability.
• Identified distinct optical emission lines characteristic of argon plasma.
• Demonstrated that plasma stability varies with changes in pressure and RF power.
