BASIC EQUATIONS Researh of degenerate eletron plasma behavior, proesses whih take plae in plasma under eletri field, plasma waves beomes more and more atual at the present time in onnetion with the problems of suh intensively developing areas as miroeletronis and nanotehnologies (see [ 6]). In the works [7, Chapter ; 8 ] the analysis of eletron plasma behavior in external longitudinal alternating eletri field was arried out. In the present work linearized problem of plasma wave refletion from a boundary of a half-spae of ondutive medium is solved analytially. Speular aommodative onditions of eletron refletion from plasma boundary are taken into onsideration. The diffuse boundary onditions were onsidered in [8 ]. Expression for wave refletane is obtained and it is shown that in the ase when normal eletron momentum aommodation oeffiient takes on a value of zero the wave refletane is expressed by the formula obtained earlier in [8, ]. Let us onsider degenerate plasma whih is situated in a half-spae x >. We assume that self-onsistent eletri field E(r, t) inside plasma has one x omponent and varies along the axis x only: E {E x (x, t),, }. In this ase the eletri field is perpendiular to the plasma boundary whih is situated in the plane x. 4πe N Here ω p is the eletron Langmuir plasma osillation frequeny, ω p , N is the eletron numerial density (onentration), m is the mass of the eletron. m Let us take the system of equations whih desribes plasma behavior.

The quantities ω and k are not independent, the following dependene ω ω (k ) is determined from the solution of the dispersion equation whih will be introdued below. It is required to determine what part of the wave energy (.) is absorbed under the wave refletion from the plasma boundary, and what part of the energy is refleted, and also to find the phase shift of the wave. It means we have to alulate the refletane whih is determined as square of module of the ratio of refleted and inoming waves amplitudes and to find the argument of the amplitudes ratio φ( k, ωε, ) R( kωε,, ) E /E E --- E arg arge arge.

This means that for the field inside plasma on the plasma boundary the following ondition is satisfied COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS Vol. 5 No. 8 e( ). (.9) (.) The non-leakage ondition for the partile (eletri urrent) flow through the plasma boundary means that μh (, μ ) dμ. (.) In the kineti theory for the desription of the surfae properties the aommodation oeffiients are used often. Tangential momentum and energy aommodation oeffiients are the most used. For the problem onsidered the normal eletron momentum aommodation under the sattering on the surfae has the most important signifiane. The normal momentum aommodation oeffiient is defined by the following relation P α i P r p , α p, P i P s (.)

4 46 GRITSIENKO et al. where P i and P r are the flows of normal to the surfae momentum of inoming to the boundary and refleted from it eletrons, P i μ h(, μ) dμ, P r μ h(, μ) dμ, (.) quantity P s is the normal momentum flow for eletrons refleted from the surfae whih are in thermodynami equilibrium with the wall, P s μ h s ( μ) dμ, h ( s μ ) A s, < μ <. (.4) The funtion h s (μ) is the equilibrium distribution funtion of the orresponding eletrons. This funtion is to satisfy the ondition similar to the non-leakage ondition μh (, μ ) dμ + μh s ( μ) dμ. (.5) We are going to onsider the relation between the normal momentum aommodation oeffiient α p and the diffuseness oeffiient q for the ase of speular and diffuse boundary onditions whih are written in the following form h(, μ) ( q)h(, μ) + a s, < μ <. Here q is the diffuseness oeffiient ( q ), a s is the quantity determined from the non-leakage ondition. From the non-leakage ondition we derive a s q μh(, μ) dμ qa s. After that we find the differene between the flows P i P r q μ h (, μ ) dμ μ a s dμ q μ h (, μ ) dμ q μ A s dμ qp i qp s. Substituting the expressions obtained to the definition of the normal momentum aommodation oeffiient we obtain that α p q. Thus, for the speular and diffuse boundary onditions the normal momentum aommodation oeffiient α p oinides with the diffusion oeffiient q. Together with the speular and diffuse boundary onditions other variants of boundary onditions are used in the kineti theory. In partiular, aommodative boundary onditions are widely used. They are divided into two forms diffuse aommodative and speular aommodative boundary onditions (see []). We onsider speular aommodative boundary onditions. For the funtion h these onditions will be written in the following form h(, μ) h(, μ) + A + A μ, < μ <. COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS Vol. 5 No. 8 (.6) Coeffiients A and A an be derived from the non-leakage ondition and the definition of the normal eletron momentum aommodation oeffiient. The problem statement is ompleted. Now the problem onsists in finding of suh solution of the system of Eqs. (.8) and (.9), whih satisfies the boundary onditions (.) (.6). Further, with use of the amplitudes of refleted and inoming waves found it is required to find the refletane of the inoming wave energy (.) and the argument of the amplitudes ratio (.4).

5 PLASMA WAVES REFLECTION FROM A BOUNDARY 47. THE RELATION BETWEEN FLOWS AND BOUNDARY CONDITIONS First of all let us find expression whih relates the onstants A, A from the boundary ondition (.). To arry this out we will use the ondition of non-leakage (.) of the partile flow through the plasma boundary, whih we will write as a sum of two flows N μh(, μ) dμ+ μh(, μ) dμ. After evident substitution of the variable in the seond integral we obtain N Taking into aount the relation (.6), we obtain that A A /. With the help of this relation we an rewrite the ondition (.6) in the following form μ[ h(, μ) h(, μ) ] dμ. h(, μ) h(, μ) A μ + -, < μ <. (.) We onsider the momentum flow of the eletrons whih are moving to the boundary. Aording to (.) we have P i P r --- A. (.) 6 It is easy to see further that P s A s /. With the help of the formula (.) we will rewrite the definition of the aommodation oeffiient (.) in the form A α p P r α p --- s ( α p ). 6 Let us onsider the ondition (.5). From this ondition we obtain that Using the ondition (.), we then get With the help of the seond equality from (.) and (.4) we rewrite the relation (.) in the integral form The boundary problem onsists of the equations (.8) and (.9) and boundary onditions (.), (.), and (.5). 4. SEPARATION OF VARIABLES AND CHARACTERISTIC SYSTEM Appliation of the general Fourier method of the separation of variables in several steps results in the following substitution h η ( x, μ) where η is the spetrum parameter or the parameter of separation, whih is omplex in general.

EIGENFUNCTIONS OF THE DISCRETE SPECTRUM AND PLASMA WAVES Aording to the definition, the disrete spetrum of the harateristi equation is a set of zeroes of the dispersion equation λ(z)/z. We start to searh zeroes of this equation. Let us take Laurent series of the dispersion funtion --- η -- Φημ' (, ) dμ'. ω ε z ----, η , z i , + γ η z. ε ω p ( η μ)φ( η, μ) E( η) ( ημ η ), η η E( η) -- Φημ' (, ) dμ'. z Solution of the system (4.4) depends essentially on the ondition if the spetrum parameter η belongs to the interval < η <. In onnetion with this the interval < η < we will all as ontinuous spetrum of the harateristi system. Let the parameter η (, ). Then from the Eq.

Consequently, the dispersion equation has infinity as a zero η i, to whih the eigensolutions of the given system orrespond h (x, μ) μ/z, e (x). This solution is naturally alled as mode of Drude. It desribes the volume ondutivity of metal, onsidered by Drude (see, for example, []). Let us onsider the question of the plasma mode existene in details. We find finite omplex zeroes of + the dispersion funtion. We use the priniple of argument. We take the ontour Γ ε Γ R γ ε (see Fig. ), whih is passed in the positive diretion and whih bounds the bionneted domain D R. This ontour onsists of the irumferene {Γ R : z R, R /ε, ε > }, and the ontour γ ε, whih inludes the ut [, +], and stands at the distane of ε from it. Aording to the priniple of argument the number of zeroes N (see [4]) in the domain D ε is determined by the following formula N d lnλ( z). πi Γ ε Considering the limit in this equality when ε and taking into aount that the dispersion funtion is analyti in the neighbourhood of the infinity, we obtain that N ( τ) dln ( τ) dln πi λ ( τ) πi λ ( τ) λ + λ + - ( τ) arg π λ ( τ) λ +. Consider the urve γ: z G(τ), τ +, where G(τ) λ + (τ)/λ (τ). It is obvious that G(), lim G( τ). Hene, the number of zeroes N equals to the doubled number of turns of the urve γ round τ the point of origin (doubled index of the problem), i.e. N κ(g), κ(g) Ind [, +] G(τ). Thus, the number of zeroes of the dispersion funtion belonging to the omplex plane out of the segment [, ] of the real axis equals to the double index of the funtion G(τ), alulated on the semi-axis [, +].

Sine the dispersion funtion is even its zeroes differ from eah other by sign. We designate these zeroes as following ±η, by η we take the zero whih satisfies the ondition Reη >. The following solution orresponds to the zero η π - τ. h η ( x, μ) z x E --- ημ η exp μ, e ( x ) η η z η exp z x E. η (5.) This solution is naturally alled as mode of Debay (this is plasma mode). In the ase of low frequenies it desribes well-known sreening of Debay (see []). The external field penetrates into plasma on the depth of r D, r D is the radius of Debay. When the external field frequenies are lose to Langmuir frequenies, the mode of Debay desribes plasma osillations (see, for instane, [, ]). From the equalities (.) for the wave e (x, t) with the help of (.6) and the equality (4.) follows the relation between the wave number k and the zero of the dispersion funtion η (ω, ν): i kx z ---- x -----, from ε η where η η (γ, ε) γ + i ε. k k - The equalities (.5) and (.6) jointly with (5.) mean that the refleted wave orresponds to the zero η η H η μ η exp z ( μ η ) i kx ---- ωt, eη ε exp i kx ---- ωt, ε COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS Vol. 5 No. 8

EXPANSION IN THE TERMS OF EIGENFUNCTIONS In the work [] it was shown that from the non-leakage ondition (.) and the ondition on the eletri field (.) it results that the trivial (equal to zero) solution of the present problem orresponds to the point η i. We will show that the system of Eqs.

Both of the variables (amplitudes of Debay) orrespond to the disrete spetrum, E(η) is unknown funtion, whih is alled eigenfuntion of ontinuous spetrum. Our purpose is to find the oeffiient of the ontinuous spetrum and the relation whih onnets the oeffiients of the disrete spetrum. Let us substitute the expansion (6.) into the boundary ondition (.).

The urves,,, 4 orrespond to the following values of the wave number k.5,.,.5,.5. On the Fig. 6 the dependene of the angle φ argk (of the phase shift) on the quantity φ for the ase k. is represented. The urves,, orrespond to the following values of the aommodation oeffiient α p.,.5,. The analysis shows that the dependene between the values of the angle φ and the wave number and the aommodation oeffiient as well is small. 9. CONCLUSION In the present work new boundary onditions for the problems of plasma wave refletion from the plane boundary of a half-spae of degenerate plasma were proposed. These boundary onditions are naturally alled as speular aommodative onditions. Suh boundary onditions are most adequate for the problems of normal propagation of plasma waves (perpendiular to the boundary), sine aommodation oeffiient under suh boundary onditions is normal eletron momentum aommodation oeffiient. In the present paper the analytial solution of the problem of plasma wave refletion from a boundary with normal eletron momentum aommodation is obtained. The analysis of the main parameters of the problem in long wave limit is arried out. This analysis shows that the boundary onditions proposed are intermediate between pure speular and pure diffuse boundary onditions. Indeed, from the Fig. it is seen that all the graphs showing the dependene between the refletane and the wave number are loated between graphs orresponding to speular and diffuse boundary onditions.
