Heterogeneous recombination of neutral oxygen atoms on the surfaces of oxidized materials

Author(s): Domen Paul (Author), Miran Mozetič (Supervisor), Rok Zaplotnik (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2024

Type: Doctoral dissertation

In this dissertation, we studied heterogeneous surface recombination of neutral oxygen atoms. We described plasma as a reliable source of neutral oxygen atoms and the behavior of neutral atoms in low-pressure plasma sustained by high-frequency discharges. Neutral atom density in the flowing afterglow and the recombination coefficient on several surfaces …

Measuring the probability for heterogenous recombination of hydrogen and oxygen atoms on surfaces of fusion relevant materials

Author(s): Aleksander Drenik (Author), Miran Mozetič (Supervisor)

Year: 2009

Type: Doctoral dissertation

This thesis presents studies of probability of heterogeneous recombination of oxygen and hydrogen atoms on surfaces of different types of carbon-based materials. The probability of heterogenous recombination is described with a quantity called recombination coefficient, which is defined as the probability that an atom which impinges upon a solid surface …
