The Influence of the Working Gas Composition on the Mass-to-Charge Composition of Ions in the Beam Plasma during the Evaporation of an YSZ Target by an Electron Beam
摘要
Abstract
The paper presents the results of a study on the mass-to-charge composition of ions in the beam plasma generated during the evaporation of a solid-state ceramic target made of yttria-partially stabilized zirconia (YSZ) in an environment of inert and reactive gases by an electron beam in the forevacuum pressure range. Monitoring of the mass-to-charge composition of beam plasma ions was carried out using a modernized RGA-300 residual atmosphere mass analyzer. The influence of the working gas composition on the mass spectra of ions of the evaporated target material is shown.
