Introduction to Complex Plasmas

Part of the book series: Springer Series on Atomic, Optical, and Plasma Physics ((SSAOPP,volume 59))

Abstract

Formation, trapping, and modification of powder particles in laboratory received growing interest during the last decade in research and technology with novel and unique properties. Applications of complex (dusty) plasmas are numerous, most of them emerging in modern material science. For the optimizations of these processes, a detailed knowledge of plasma–particle interaction is needed. On the other hand, due to the interaction between small (test) particles and the surrounding plasma information on the electric field in front of surfaces and the energy fluxes in the plasma can be obtained. Dust particles can be used as a diagnostic tool, for example, by observing position and motion of the particles in dependence on the discharge parameters. In a certain sense, one can state that “complex (dusty) plasmas” are a rapidly expanding field of research at the border between plasma physics, material processing, and diagnostics, for example, for synthesis and modification of powder particles.
