Wong Published online: 16 March 2013 Ó Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013 Abstract The expected emission spectra (full, Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line) of neon focussed plasma have been studied for different conditions. Expected neon plasma spectra at certain electron temperature range have been plotted. The suitable electron temperatures ranges for neon plasma soft X-ray emission and extreme ultraviolet emission have been investigated. The X-ray ratio curves for various electron temperatures with probable electron and ion densities of the neon plasma produced have been computed with the assumption of non-local thermodynamic equilibrium model for the distribution of the ionic species. These ratio curves could be used for electron temperatures deduction of neon plasma focus. Keywords Neon plasma Soft X-ray EUV emission X-rays ratio method Introduction The plasma focus device has been studied intensively as a plasma source capable of producing high density high temperature plasma that emits intense radiation ranging from hard and soft X-rays, UV and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) [1 4]. The radiation output and the emission spectra that may be obtained depend on the operating parameters of the plasma focus discharge, which include the discharge M. Akel (&) S.

The dense plasma focus pinch discharge has recently been considered as a possible light source for extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) [6]. This is of interest to the semiconductor manufacturing industry due to the expectation that the Next Generation Lithography (NGL) will be using the wavelength of 135 Å [7, 8]. Various types of EUV radiation sources, including the laser produced plasma and pulsed discharge sources such as the capillary discharge [9, 10], vacuum spark [11, 12] and plasma focus [13, 14] are being considered. These radiation sources, especially the pulsed discharge sources are favorable as X-ray and EUV radiation sources because of their lower cost and simplicity in operation when compared to other radiation sources. The X-ray emission from dense plasma focus is characterized by high intensity and a wide spectral range, the emission times ranging from a few to a few tens of nanoseconds for a small focus. The predominant spectral range that is actually radiated can be controlled by using a specific gas at a specific temperature. Good soft X-ray yield can be achieved by neon as a filling gas with characteristic spectral energies around 1 kev. Based on corona model incorporated in Lee model code, it is shown that for operation in neon, a focus pinch compression temperature of ev is suitable for generating H-like and He-like ions in neon plasma (therefore neon soft X-ray emissions) [15 22]. Liu [15] has shown that for the soft X-rays from neon operated 3.3 kj UNU-ICTP plasma focus device it was found that 64 % of soft X-ray emission can be attributed to line radiations at 922 ev ( Å) (He-like alpha line) and 1,022 ev ( Å) (H-like alpha line) and the remaining 36 % by the rest, mainly recombination radiation, for optimized operations [23]. Generally it is hardly possible to get the detailed accurate knowledge of the states of the plasma. Approximate estimations, by calculations based on simplified plasma models,

The most tractable plasma models are the local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE), the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) or the corona equilibrium (CE), and the collisional-radiative equilibrium (CRE) [24 27]. One of the best known of these is the suite of three codes (POPULATE, SPECTRA, and RATIO) called RATION [28 31]. The POPULATE code uses the principal of detailed balance to calculate the rate of inverse processes. The SPECTRA code computes the expected emission spectrum of the plasma while the RATIO code allows the user to view the results of POPULATE in graphical forms. The graphical outputs include the population, ratio of the intensities of selected transitions and the optical depths of transitions as a function of temperature or density. Since the code is to provide details of the populations in Lithium-like through fully stripped ions, an X-ray filter analysis code, XRAYFIL, [32] has been developed to allow more accurate non-dispersive X-ray plasma diagnosis with absorption filters by using a series of trial spectra of the emitting species. The code calculates a set of emission spectra for a given plasma using RATION, and convolves it with the transmission characteristics of the filter set used, as well as the response function of the detector chosen. Comparison of the ratio of the signal through the different filters from these calculated values to that recorded in the experiment allows us to obtain a measurement of the plasma temperature and density. The code incorporates a number of options for various emission scenario and detector. The main purpose of XRAYFIL code to calculate the emission spectra of neon plasma and then to work out the number of photons passing through the chosen composite filter (BPX65 PIN diode detector, in our case). So, the emission spectra (full, Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line) are computed using XRAYFIL code (in unit of number of photons/cm 3 / Angstrom/Sec./Sterad.) [32]. In this work, the XRAYFIL code coupled with the POPULATE code is used to study the EUV and X-ray emissions of neon focussed plasma. The spectra of radiation emissions (full, Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line) from the neon plasma focus have been simulated for different plasma conditions. The calibrated X-ray ratio curves for electron temperature measurements of neon plasma focus have been deduced. The neon plasma focus has been also presented as X-ray and EUV source. expected to consist of ionic species that can be considered as emitters of line radiations at wavelength around 135 Å. At a temperature of around ev, the Ne?4 is prominent, whereas at a temperature of around ev, the neon plasma is expected to consist of predominantly the Ne?8 ionic species. These ionic species are known to be able to emit intense line radiations at or near 135 Å as listed in Table 1 [33]. Figure 1 shows the population distribution of these two groups of ionic species as predicted by the coronal equilibrium model. XRAYFIL code has been also used to synthesize the EUV emission spectrum from a plasma which is characterized by the plasma parameters available in a POPU- LATE file. The expected EUV neon plasma spectrum generated in plasma focus devices at different operational conditions has been calculated. Based on populate output file, the neon plasma spectrum has been deduced at different temperatures ev for NLTE. Figure 2 presents EUV (0 150 Å) neon plasma focus spectra at T e = 15, 25, 55, 95 ev for NLTE model, N e = cm -3. Neon Plasma Focus as Soft X-Ray Source Based on corona model, a focus pinch compression temperature of ev is suitable for generating H-like ( Å) and He-like ( Å) ions in neon plasma (see Fig. 3). In our calculation, the non-lte model has been used to obtain an estimate of the ionic distribution in the neon plasma. This is believed to be able to give sufficiently accurate results. XRAYFIL code has been used to synthesize the emission spectrum from a plasma which is characterized by the plasma parameters available in a POPULATE file, where the computed spectral lines emitted from a plasma focus are broadened by Doppler broadening [28, 34].

Figure 4 presents the expected radiative emissions (full, Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line) of neon plasma focus at T e = 400 ev for non-lte model, N e = cm -3,N i = cm -3. The electron temperature and density effects on the plasma emissions have been studied. The electron plasma temperature influence on the radiative emission has been found to be more dominant than electron density. Figure 5 shows the variations of the expected full emission spectra of neon plasma focus at various temperatures, while the variations versus densities are illustrated in the Fig. 6. As expected from theoretical consideration of plasma emission [35, 36], the continuum of the X-ray emission spectrum is observed to shift towards shorter wavelength (higher photon energy) with increasing electron temperature, with the wavelength at the peak of the continuum given approximately by 12.4/T e (according to equations used for computing Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line radiations in the XRAYFIL code), where T e is in kev (in our case, the peak of the continuum is at about 31 Å). The relative population of the ionic species present in also affected by the temperature. The prominent species present in neon plasma at electron temperature of 200 ev are Ne?8 and Ne?9, while at 400 ev, Ne?8, Ne?9 are present with small fraction of Ne?10. Finally at electron temperature of 500 ev, Ne?10 becomes prominent, together with Ne?8 and Ne?9.This will affect the recombination and line radiations. At electron temperature much higher than 2 kev, when the plasma becomes fully ionized, Bremsstrahlung is expected to dominate.

This is because of the N 2 e dependence. Figures 7 and 8 show variations of the soft X-ray intensity (He-like and H-like ions) versus electron temperature. From Fig. 7 it can be seen that the most suitable temperature for He-like is about 300 ev, while for H-like is found to be about 500 ev (Fig. 8). So, based on our obtained results, the suitable T e ranges for soft X-ray emitted from neon plasma focus may be determined. From the above mentioned results, it can be said that the POP- ULATE and XRAYFIL codes are a good tools for plasma diagnostic, especially for X-ray plasma focus study and electron temperature measurements. Calibration Curves for Electron Temperature Measurements of Neon Plasma Focus The electron temperature of the plasma can be deduced from the measurement of the X-ray continuum emitted by the plasma. It is well known that the temperature of the focused plasma is in the range of kev. Most of the radiation from the neon plasma is expected to be due to Bremsstrahlung produced by electron retardation in the Coulomb field of the ions. However, if impurities are present, recombination and line radiations obscure the free free radiation, and the interpretation of the experimental results becomes very complicated [37]. The electron temperature can be determined from the analysis of radiation in the X-ray region [38, 39]. The five channels BPX65 PIN diodes with different filters have been widely employed to record the X-ray pulses generated by a plasma focus devices [40 44]. So, the attenuated radiative emissions of plasma through different channels of BPX65 PIN diodes with varying absorption filters have been calculated using the Ratio- BPX65 code [45]. Briefly, the code has been written in FORTRAN 77 for studying the effect of the response of BPX65 photodiode, with Mylar and Aluminum foils filtering on the emitted spectra from plasma focus. The input data for this code are: XRAYFIL output file, Mylar, BPX65 and aluminum mass attenuation coefficient data versus wavelength (k). Where the attenuated plasma spectrum through Mylar foils and BPX65 photodiode has been determined by using the following formula: Z I 0 ¼ Pðk; T e ÞSðkÞexp l mylarðkþx mylar dk ð1þ Fig. 7 Variation of He-like ion emission line intensity of neon plasma with T e for NLTE model Then, emitted spectrum through additional different aluminum foil thicknesses will be:

Figure 9 shows the emitted neon plasma spectrum, which shows the attenuated X-ray intensities recorded after passing through different filters at T e = 500 ev. The signals recorded by the BPX65 detector provide information on the time evolution of the X-rays produced by the plasma focus and they are used to determine the electron temperature of the plasma focus by the X-ray foil absorption technique. For this purpose, the sets of neon plasma spectrum (continuum) for different temperatures (T e = 200 5,000 ev) have been calculated to get the X-ray signal ratio R = I/I 0. As an example, for our calculations, the set of X-ray signal ratio graphs for T e = 200, 500, 1,000, 1,500, 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, and 5,000 ev at the above mentioned conditions are shown in Fig. 10. These ratio curves can be used as the calibration curves for the measurement of electron temperatures for neon plasma. 1E18 1E16 1E14 1E Conclusions Neon specta Te = 500 ev NLTE, Ne = E19, Full spectra Spectra + BPX μm Mylar Spectra + BPX μm Mylar + 10 μm Al Spectra + BPX μm Mylar + 30 μm Al Fig. 9 Computed spectra of neon plasma through different sets of filters (BPX65 PIN diode with 12 lm aluminized Mylar (D.1), BPX65 PIN diode with 12 lm aluminized Mylar coupled to Aluminum foil thickness of 10 lm (D.2), and BPX65 PIN diode with 12 lm aluminized Mylar coupled to Aluminum foil thickness of 30 lm (D.3) at electron temperature T e = 500 ev Ratio E-3 X-ray ratio curves of neon continuum spectra at different electron temperatures ( ev) T e = 200 ev 1000 ev 500 ev Al foil, μm 5000 ev 4000 ev 3000 ev 2000 ev 1500 ev Fig. 10 Calculated X-ray ratio (R = I/I 0 ) curves of BPX65 PIN diode coupled to Mylar (12 lm) and sets of BPX65 PIN diode coupled to Mylar (12 lm) with different aluminum foil thicknesses (10, 20, 30, 40, and 90 lm) for X-rays of neon plasma (NLTE, N e = cm -3 ) at various temperatures The radiation emission spectra (full, Bremsstrahlung, recombination, and line) of neon plasma focus at various plasma parameters have been computed using the XRAYFIL code by assuming a non-lte model for the plasma.
