Michael, The plasma density/uniformity. The system I use is a capacitive system which means the plasma is uniform when parallel to the flat electrode it sees last. I can load samples on a shelf and because the shelf is parallel to the lower electrode and the samples are the same height he top surface of the sampes sees the same intensity plasma every where. Let me know what plasma system you are using and what the shape of the samples are. It is possible I can run some samples for you. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Vladimer Michael Subject: Re: [mems-talk] Cured polyurethane glass-bonding Bill- What is meant by "the secret is the uniformity of the plasma"? Is this in time? -how the plasma density changes over the duration of the plasma treatment. Or in space? -how the plasma varies throughout the chamber, consequently exposing different portions of the material to different plasma densities. Currently, I have variations in both during my plasma treatment and I'm getting rather irregular results. Any help would be apprecaited.
