Abstract
AbstractThe vacuum‐ultraviolet‐photoionization chamber was constructed to allow controlled ion generation and well‐defined surface treatment with these ions at atmospheric pressure. It utilizes atmospheric helium plasma as a photon source and separates the ion generation from the plasma by an aerodynamic window. The ions are guided to the grounded substrate by a weak electric field, while the diffusive transport of neutrals is reduced by a helium gas flow along the substrate. Ionic species and the absolute ion flux were determined in the substrate region. Ion‐based thin film deposition using a precursor was investigated as a model process. The proposed system enables future investigation of e.g. the isolated interaction of ions with biological substrates.
