Abstract :
A new method of determining the temporal plasma density above a semiconductor bridge using a microwave resonator probe has been proposed. Experimental results indicate that the plasma density is observed to increase to a peak value of 4.2×1011 cm-1 and decay exponentially with time, which is consistent with diffusion dominating the plasma transport
