Simulations of technical plasmas in the frequency range between DC to MW (C04)

在该项目的第二阶段，开发了一种新型节能隐式细胞内粒子（PIC）方法，为在SFB框架内实验研究的所有类型的等离子体的动力学、非局部和自一致性模拟提供了前所未有的机会。基于这种方法并在图形处理单元上大规模并行化的代码以及基于流体的代码将在第三阶段使用，以有助于对相应等离子体反应器中发生的最重要的等离子体过程进行基本理解，以便优化和更好地控制它们。这将包括薄膜沉积的建模，到最后等离子体和薄膜生长模型将被集成。

Development of a novel energy-conserving implicit Particle-in-Cell (PIC) approach in the second phase of the project has opened an unprecedented opportunity to simulate kinetically, non-locally and self-consistently all types of plasmas studied experimentally in the framework of the SFB. Codes, which are based on this approach and are massively parallelized on graphics processing units, as well as fluid-based codes will be used in the third phase to contribute to the fundamental understanding of the most important plasma processes taking place in the corresponding plasma reactors in order to optimize and better control them. This will include modeling of the thin film deposition, to which end the plasma and film growth models will be integrated.
