Abstract

For the first time the electron transport coefficients in C2H4-SiH4 mixtures were calculated by using the Bolsig+ freeware for the E/N (ratio of the electric field E to the neutral number density N) range of 0.1–1000 Td (Townsend). The electron collision cross section sets for C2H4 and SiH4 molecules were chosen and modified to ensure reliability before calculation. Therefore, the electron transport coefficients in C2H4-SiH4 mixtures are useful for plasma modeling.
