The basic parameters of the novel ICP, including its radio frequency, power loss, size, and argon consumption are less than 1% of that for the case of atmospheric pressure ICP source. For example, at 100 Pa of argon gas pressure, the present ICP source can be ignited by using the rf power less than 3.5 W. Potential applications of the ICP is discussed.展开更多
