Description

We present Argon Ion Velocity Distribution Function (IVDF) in the vicinity of an insulated BNSiO2 ceramic and a glass plate in a non magnetized plasma by laser-induced fluorescence diagnostic. Results show the rather surprising self-consistent formation of a positive or inverse sheath in the two cases. The positive plasma potential repels ions from the insulated wall and is not explained by any sheath theory. Electron secondary emission of the ceramic can be a good candidate to explain these results. (authors)
