Korea Institute of Fusion Energy
My research group is studying to acquire overall data for plasma understanding, including physical and chemical physical data of electrons, ions, atoms and molecules constituting plasma and characteristic data through measurement of plasma state.
We calculate the molecular structure, the electron affinity (EA), the ionization potential (IP), the polarity (α), the Lennard-Jones (σ, ε) parameter, the thermodynamic data, structure and energy characteristics of excited electron states.
We measure the cross section of the molecule by electron collision and can be calculated by using R Matrix.
Since 2013, we have been running an international expert assessment meeting to evaluate atom, molecular and surface interaction data required for nuclear fusion research. Up to now, evaluation of CH4, C2H2, NF3, NxOy, H2O and the like has been carried out.
We constructed Plasma integrated diagnosis system in RIE type plasma reactor. It consist of OES, Cut-off probe, Mass / energy analyzer, Langmuir probe, VI probe and High voltage probe. Particularly, Mass / Energy Analyzers are installed on the substrate to measure the species and energy distribution of neutral species, ions, and ions entering the substrate in order to measure the kinds of neutral species, ion species, and energy distribution incident on the substrate.
We developing a multi-dimensional simulator for low-temperature plasma analysis based on plasma fluid model based and the data optimization.
We also developed a user friendly web system and disseminate data in the world.
