Sažetak
Characteristics of oxygen plasma during treatment of polymer graphite composite were monitored by optical emission spectroscopy. Plasma was created in a rather small volume of about 3x10-5 m-3 within a quartz glass tube by an electrode-less radiofrequency discharge in the H mode. The discharge was established using an RF generator with the frequency of 13.56 MHz and the output power of 550 W. The composite samples were discs with a diameter of 25 mm and the thickness of 8 mm. Plasma was created in pure oxygen and characterized by an optical spectrometer through an optical fiber. A low-resolution spectrometer Avantes AvaSpec 3648 was adjusted to the lowest acquisition time due to intensive radiation. The optical spectra revealed several atomic lines originating from radiative transitions from highly excited states, CO bands from 3rd positive as well as Angstrom transitions, and a broad continuum between 400 and 700 nm. Weak carbon atomic lines in the UV and infra-red part of spectrum were detected as well. The intensity of major spectral features was measured versus treatment time for 30 s. The results showed continuous decrease of oxygen lines and simultaneous increase of a CO line at 266 nm and C line at 911 nm. Spectral features were explained by intensive oxidation of the graphite sample. The unusually high intensity of CO bands were explained by interaction of highly excited oxygen atoms with graphite samples, while the appearance of the broad continuum was explained by partial overlapping of radiative transitions within CO molecule.
