 A one dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation method has been employed to study the effect of DC voltage and ion temperature on the properties of ion-ion plasma bounded by two symmetrical but oppositely biased electrodes. It is assumed that the ion-ion plasma is collisionless and both the positive and negative ion species have the same mass, temperature, and degree of ionization. Simulation results show that the formation of sheath and presheath regions and fluctuation of plasma parameters in that region are affected by the biasing voltage and ion temperature. It was found that the magnitude of the electrostatic electric field at the vicinity of biasing electrodes was affected by the biasing voltage and ion temperature as well. This strong electric field close to the electrodes further prevents the flow of charged particles towards the electrodes. The presence of a non-zero electric field at the quasineutral region suggests a presheath region similar to the electron-ion plasma. In the quasineutral region, the density of ions increased with the increase in biasing voltage and decreased with the increase in temperature of isothermal ions. Furthermore, the phase space diagrams for the ions were obtained which indicated different regions of the plasma. The positive ions acquire negative velocity towards the negatively biased electrode and the negative ions acquire positive velocity towards the positively biased electrode.

AbstractA Tonks-Langmuir type model for a one-dimensional low pressure (collisionless) plasma containing at least two species of Maxwellian negative charge carriers is examined. The solutions of this model yield the positive ion energy distribution at the sheath edge without needing to specify the ionization process. This distribution has a width consistent with the potential drop across the plasma, and is shown to satisfy the generalised Bohm criterion for sheath formation. However by assuming a form for the ionization rate in the plasma, the potential profile across the discharge has been calculated. It has been found that for a range of plasma parameters the solution for the potential at which quasineutrality fails becomes triple valued; the physical solution in this regime is identified.Many plasmas used for materials processing contain negative ions. It is important to understand how these ions influence the positive ion energy distribution at the substrate where the processing occurs.This work is also of relevance to the behaviour of Langmuir probes in electronegative plasmas.
