摘要
The screening of dust particles immersed in the sheath of a parallel plate rf discharge in helium is studied by excitation of waves in a linear chain arrangement. The waves are excited by the radiation pressure of a modulated laser beam. The measured dispersion relation is compared with a one-dimensional dust lattice wave to obtain the shielding length. Dust acoustic waves are not compatible with the measured dispersion relation.
