Diode calibration of a Langmuir probe system for measurement of electron energy distribution functions in a plasma

It is shown that a simple circuit consisting of a semiconductor diode, a resistor, and a dc voltage source can model a narrow-energy group of electrons in a plasma for the purpose of calibration of a Langmuir probe. The calibration is appropriate when the probe is used for measurement of the electro...
