Effect of Mixed Gases on Decomposition Characteristic of CF4 by Non-Thermal Plasma

In this paper, the $CF_4$ decomposition rate and by-product were investigated for two simulated plasma reactors which are metal particle reactor and spiral wire reactors as a function of mixed gases. The $CF_4$ decomposition rate by plasma reactor with metal particle electrode had a gain of 20~25% over that by plasma reactor with spiral wire electrode. The $CF_4$ decomposition efficiency increases with increasing applied voltage up to the critical voltage for spark formation. The $CF_4$ decomposition efficiency of metal particle reactor was about 80% at AC 24kV. The $CF_4$ decomposition rate used Ar-$N_2$ as base gas was the highest among three base gases of $N_2$, $Ar-N_2$, air. The by-products of the $N_2$, $N_2Ar$ base as were similar, but in case of air base they were different.
