The analytic solution for the time stationary non-monotonic double layers in multi-species plasma is presented. This solution is the analytic extension of the monotonic double layer and the solitary hole. We have derived the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation in plasmas, taking account of negative ion effects. The effects of negative ion and density on the properties of the non-monotonic double layer are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
