In this paper, a two dimensional (2D) axisymmetric fluid model is built to study the effect of the ratio of CF4 admixture on the plasma dynamics and F-containing species concentration in He atmospheric pressure plasma jet. The steady mole fraction distribution of He and CF4 is first studied, which presents that the mole fractions of CF4 show peaks at 5 mm from the symmetry axis on the dielectric surface due to the dual influences of the boundary layer effect and air mixing. The CF4 admixture enhances the propagation speed of ionization wave, and the axial velocity reaches the peak value in the case of He + 1.5% CF4. The conversion from the ring-shaped plasma–surface interaction to a solid-disk one results from the addition of CF4. The Penning ionization of CF4 accelerates the plasma jet propagation within 1.5% CF4. However, the excitation energy loss and electron attachment caused by the addition of CF4 also quench the propagation of plasma jet, which become obvious in the case of 2% CF4. F-containing groups (CF4+, CF3+, CF3−, F−, CF3, and F), mainly produced by the Penning ionization reaction, electron attachment reaction, and He+ + CF4 → He + CF3+ + F, also show peaks for He + 1.5% CF4. On the dielectric surface, as the radial distance increases, the ratio of F-containing neutral species (CF3 and F) to O atom at 200 ns decreases due to the increase of O atom concentration and then increases at the streamer head because the surface flux of CF3 reaches the maximum value. The maximum surface flux radial distribution distance for ratio of F-containing species to O atom, CF3 and F appear in the case of 1.5% CF4. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
