Abstract
We present a detailed experimental study of discharge current oscillations in a planar cathode plasma with poly dispersed alumina dust particles. Our experimental measurements suggest that surface density of dust particles play an important role together with cathode spots, in deciding self excited oscillating regime or stable dust cloud regime. Experiments conducted with dust particles density below the critical limit shows self excited oscillations. Operating above the critical limit, a dust cloud levitated in the sheath region was observed.
