摘要
Positive ions were measured an situ by direct sampling from CF4 discharge space at 13.56 MHz using a quadrupole mass spectrometer. CF3+ is observed predominantly with smaller amounts of CF2+ and CF+. With increasing RF power, both CF2+ and CF+ shift to the lower energy side of CF3+, and their intensities tend to increase. Such a phenomenon is also observed as controlling the potential of a sampling tip externally. These seem to suggest that CF2+ and CF+ are produced mainly in the sheath region.
