ABSTRACT:
A plasma-generating apparatus has a plasma discharge chamber having a plasma-generation region. Microwave energy is applied, while introducing plasma-forming gas, and a magnetic field is applied to the plasma-generation region by an electromagnetic coil extending around the chamber. To enhance the field in the plasma-generation region while reducing it outside said region, and a permanent magnet arrangement is at least partly located radially within the coil so as to provide a unidirectional magnetic field which extends through the whole of the plasma-generation region as seen in radial cross-section and is oriented in the axial direction of the coil.
