Abstract :
The behavior of a single powder particle with a diameter of 250 ??m in a radio frequency plasma under pulsed argon ion beam bombardment was investigated. The motion of the powder particle under the action of the ion beam was investigated and Fourier-analyzed. The experimental results are in fair agreement with the theoretical considerations.
