“…22 The reaction rate coefficients k for H 2 , CH 2 , CH 3 , C 2 H 2 , C 2 H 4 , C 2 H 5 , C 2 H 6 were estimated from their reaction cross sections. 10,23,24 The mobilities and diffusion coefficients of charged species, except electron mobility, the secondary electron emission coefficient ͑␥ ion = 0.01͒, the initial energy for secondary electrons ͑=1.0 eV͒, the detachment coefficient ͑=3.69ϫ 10 −11 cm 3 /s͒ and the recombination coefficient ͑=0.0 cm 3 /s͒ are cited from Gogolides et al 20 D j of neutral species in the CH 4 plasma were calculated as referred to in Herrebout et al 25 An overview of the species ͑nonradi-cal neutrals, ions, radical neutrals͒ taken into account in the present model is given in Table II. The reaction processes among electrons, ions, excited atoms and molecules taken here and their reaction rate coefficients are listed in Tables III-V: 28 for electron-neutral, 15 for ion-neutral, and 25 for neutral-neutral reactions.…”
