Resumo

Authors present a physical and mathematical model of low-pressure RF plasma processing of solid surfaces. It is showed that the ion energy Ei. and the ion current density ji. onto the solid surface, which are the major generalized parameters of RF plasma treatment of solids, are achieved to values Ei = 10 ÷ 100 eV, ji = 0.3 ÷ 25 A·m−2.
