The role of double ionization on the generation of doubly charged ions in copper vacuum arcs: insight from particle-in-cell/direct simulation Monte Carlo methods
Wei Yang, Qianhong Zhou, Qiang Sun +2
Metal vapour vacuum arcs are capable to generate multiply charged metallic ions, which are widely used in fields such as ion deposition, ion thrusters, and ion sources, etc. Accord…
Convenient Analytical Solution for Vibrational Distribution Function of Molecules Colliding with a Wall
Wei Yang, Alexander V. Khrabrov, Igor D. Kaganovich +1
We study formation of the Vibrational Distribution Function (VDF) in a molecular gas at low pressure, when vibrational levels are excited by electron impact and deactivated in coll…
Benchmarking and validation of global model code for negative hydrogen ion sources
Wei Yang, Sergey N. Averkin, Alexander V. Khrabrov +2
Benchmarking and validation are prerequisite for using simulation codes as predictive tools. In this work, we have developed a Global Model for Negative Hydrogen Ion Source (GMNHIS…
