Abstract

The feasibility of using machine learning algorithms to pre-smooth the current-voltage characteristic (IVC) of a Langmuir probe before numerical differentiation to obtain the electron energy distribution function (EEDF) was investigated. It was found that the EEDF shape depends strongly on the IVC region used to train the model. Excluding the IVC region corresponding to the electron-saturation branch from the training process reproduces a local EEDF maximum at ~17 eV. Good agreement with the EEDF obtained by the independent splicing method in the energy range of 0 to 23 eV was demonstrated.
