Abstract We reported the plasma works at Cornell University. The plasma has been generated for 1) surface cleaning to reduce field emission; 2) the cavity quality factor improvement. The experiment design, including RF design, the gas type and pressure selection, the external DC magnetic field calculation, had been discussed. The plasma experiment set-up by using a 1.3GHz single-cell cavity is shown. Argon and helium plasma was successfully ignited in the cavity; the results of the plasma processing will be displayed.
