説明

<jats:p>A model is developed for self-consistently calculating the gas temperature in a direct current argon glow discharge, used for analytical spectroscopy. The power input into the argon gas due to elastic (i.e., kinetic energy transfer) collisions of Ar+ ions, and fast Ar atoms, sputtered Cu atoms and electrons with the argon gas atoms is calculated with Monte Carlo models. This power input is used in a heat transfer model to calculate the gas temperature. The amount of power input, the contributions of the various input sources, and the resulting gas temperature are calculated for a wide range of voltages, pressures, and currents, typically applied in analytical spectroscopy. It is found that the temperature can increase significantly at high voltages, pressures, and currents (up to a factor of 3 compared to absolute room temperature).</jats:p>
