In this study, a dc discharge is applied in SF6 gas to produce a plasma column, and the radial density profile of negative-ions is measured by Langmuir probes using the modified Bohm criterion. The gas pressure and discharge current dependences of negative-ion density are also measured. It is found that the negative-ion density of 8.0 × 1017 m-3 is obtained around the plasma column at r = 1.0 cm when SF6 pressure is 0.13 Pa and discharge current is 0.50 A. The negative-ion density has radial gradient, and the electron density is much lower in this region.展开更多
The metaphosphate anion, PO_3, was detected in the negative-ion chemicalionization mass spectra of 2,6,7-trioxa-1-phospbabicyclo[2.2. 2] octane-1-oxides.
