| Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is a radio frequency (RF) antenna for plasma ion sources. The RF antenna includes a low-resistance metal tube having an inner and outer diameter. A low friction polymer tube also having an inner and outer diameter surrounds the low-resistance metal tube. The inner diameter of the polymer tube is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the low-resistance metal tube. A pre-formed quartz glass tube encases the low friction polymer tube and low-resistance metal tube. The quartz glass tube is pre-formed in a desired shape. A guide wire is attached inside one end of the low-resistance hollow metal tube. The flexible low friction polymer tube containing the low-resistance metal tubed may then be threaded through the quartz glass tube. |
