Plasma fibre using bright-core helicon plasma
Lei Chang, Zi-Chen Kan, Jing-Jing Ma +2
This paper reports an innovative concept of ``plasma fibre" using bright-core helicon plasma, inspired by its spatial and spectral similarities to the well-known optical fibre. The…

Wave propagation and power deposition in blue-core helicon plasma
Lei Chang, Juan F. Caneses, Saikat C. Thakur +1
The wave propagation and power deposition in blue-core helicon plasma are computed referring to recent experiments. It is found that the radial profile of wave electric field peaks…

PISCES-RF: a liquid-cooled high-power steady-state helicon plasma device
Saikat Chakraborty Thakur, Michael J. Simmonds, Juan F. Caneses +6
Radio-frequency (RF) driven helicon plasma sources can produce relatively high-density plasmas (n > 10^19 m-3) at relatively moderate powers (< 2 kW) in argon. However, to produce…
