On the influence of plasma parameters on particle size — •Sören Wohlfahrt, Niklas Kohlmann, Frank Wieben, Oguz Han Asnaz, Franko Greiner, and Dietmar Block — Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics, Kiel University, Germany

Microparticles are the essential component of a (dusty) complex plasma. The forces affecting these particles, as well as their accumulated charge, depend prominently on their size. Thus, a precise knowledge of the particle size is a key input parameter for a quantitative description and modelling. However, in interaction with the plasma the particle size can change. The size of particles can be determined with very high precision by means of angle- and polarisation-resolved light scattering (ARPLS), which is based on a comparison of experimental data with Lorentz-Mie theory [1]. We will present the size evolution of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) microparticles for various discharge conditions. Especially, variation of rf-power and neutral gas pressure and their effect on the particle size are discussed.
