Abstract

A set of experimental Stark width and shift parameters of visible singly ionizedsilicon spectral lines is reported in this paper. Measurements have been made on apulsed plasma generated in a linear discharge lamp filled with a mixture of silaneand helium. Electron density and temperature in this plasma range from 0.2 to0.9 × 1023 m−3 and from 16 000 to 20 000 K respectively. Electron density has beensimultaneously determined by two-wavelength interferometry and fromStark broadening of He I 501.6 nm, He I 728.1 nm and Hαlines. Temperature has been simultaneously determined from a Boltzmann plot ofHe I lines, from absolute emission of He I lines and from a Boltzmann plot of Si IIlines. Dependences of measured Stark parameters on electron density andtemperature have been investigated and the final results have been compared withmost of the previous experimental data as well as with some theoretical models.
