两种外磁场形式对介质面次级电子倍增的抑制

利用自编1D3V PIC程序,数值研究了不同外加磁场方式对次级电子倍增抑制的物理过程,给出了次级电子数目、平均能量、密度、运动轨迹、渡越时间、介质表面静电场及沉积功率等物理量时空分布关系。模拟结果表明:不同方向外加磁场抑制次级电子倍增的机理有所不同。轴向外加磁场利用电子回旋运动干扰微波电场对电子加速过程,使其碰壁能量降低以达到抑制二次电子倍增的效果;横向外加磁场利用电子回旋漂移过程中,电子半个周期被推离介质表面（不发生次级电子倍增）,半个周期被推回介质表面（降低电子碰撞能量）的作用机理,达到抑制二次电子倍增的效果。讨论了横向磁场在回旋共振下,电子回旋同步加速导致回旋半径增大,电子能量持续增加的特殊过程。两种外加磁场方式都可以通过增加磁场达到进一步抑制次级电子倍增的目的。轴向外加磁场加载容易,但对磁场要求较高;横向外加磁场需要磁场较低,但加载较为困难。

Inflammation dynamics of thin alcohol films under the action of a surface microwave discharge initiated in atmospheric-pressure air

Rapid nonthermal plasma-stimulated inflammation of liquid hydrocarbon (alcohol) films is realized under the conditions of a surface microwave discharge initiated in quiescent atmospheric-pressure air. The induction period is found, and the velocity of the intense combustion front is determined. Combustion is initiated by the low-temperature plasma of the surface microwave discharge that exists at high values of the reduced electric field. It is shown that the induction period varies between 10 and 100 μs depending on the input power, the plasma-stimulated inflammation occurs on the antenna at the site where the surface microwave discharge burns, and the velocity of the intense combustion front near the antenna reaches 300–350 m/s.     

High-aperture binary axicons for the formation of the longitudinal electric field component on the optical axis for linear and circular polarizations of the illuminating beam

Diffraction of uniformly polarized laser beams with vortex phase singularity is theoretically analyzed using the plane wave expansion. It is shown that for a high numerical aperture, an intense longitudinal electric field component is formed on the optical axis in this case. It is numerically demonstrated that an analogous effect is ensured for diffraction of a conventional Gaussian beam from asymmetric binary axicons. The field intensity on the optical axis can be varied either by rotating the optical element or by changing the direction of polarization of radiation.

介质材料二次电子发射特性对微波击穿的影响

以介质填充的平行板放电结构为例,本文主要研究了介质填充后微波低气压放电和微放电的物理过程.为了探究介质材料特性对微波低气压放电和微放电阈值的影响,本文采用自主研发的二次电子发射特性测量装置,测量了7种常见介质材料的二次电子发射系数和二次电子能谱.依据二次电子发射过程中介质表面正带电的稳定条件,计算了介质材料稳态表面电位与二次电子发射系数以及能谱参数的关系.在放电结构中引入与表面电位相应的等效直流电场后,依据电子扩散模型和微放电中电子谐振条件,分别探讨了介质表面稳态表面电位的大小对微波低气压放电和微放电阈值的影响.结果表明,介质材料的二次电子发射系数以及能谱参数越大,介质材料的稳态表面电位也越大,对应的微波低气压放电和微放电阈值也越大.所得结论对于填充介质的选择有一定的理论指导价值.

本文利用自编P3D3V PIC程序, 数值研究了BJ32矩波导传输TE₁₀模式高功率微波在介质窗内、 外表面引发的次级电子倍增过程, 给出了次级电子3维空间位置分布特征、介质窗表面法向静电场分布规律以及电子数密度分布特性. 模拟结果表明: 对于介质窗内侧, 微波强场区域率先进入次级电子倍增过程; 而对于介质窗外侧, 则是微波弱场区域优先进入次级电子倍增过程. 形成机理可以解释为: 微波坡印廷矢量方向与介质窗外表面法向相同而与内表面法向相反, 内侧漂移运动导致强场区域电子易于被推回表面, 有利于次级电子倍增优先形成; 外侧漂移运动导致强场区域电子易于被推离表面, 不利于次级电子倍增形成. 准3维模型相对1维模型: 介质窗内侧次级电子倍增过程中, 次级电子倍增进入饱和时间长、饱和次级电子数目少、平均电子能量高、 入射微波功率低、沉积功率低; 介质窗外侧次级电子倍增过程中, 次级电子倍增进入饱和时间短、饱和次级电子数目少、平均电子能量低、 入射微波功率低、沉积功率低. 沉积功率与入射微波功率比值与微波模式、强度及介质窗内外侧表面关系不大, 准3维和1维模型计算结果均在1%–2%左右水平. 关键词： 高功率微波 介质表面次级电子倍增 粒子模拟 横向电磁场分布

强外电场作用下BF分子结构和激发特性

采用密度泛函(DFT)方法LSDA在6-311++G(d,p)基组水平上优化得到了分子轴方向不同电场(-0.03～0.05a.u.)作用下,BF分子的基态结构参数、电偶极矩μ、电荷分布、HOMO能级、LUMO能级等。在优化构型下,用同样的基组采用杂化CIS-DFT方法(CIS-LSDA)研究了同样外电场条件下对BF分子的激发能和振子强度的影响。结果表明:随着电场的增加,分子结构与外电场有着强烈的依赖关系,且对电场方向的依赖呈现非对称性。分子总能量先增大后减小,电偶极矩μ先增大,后减小,最后不断增大。电场对振子强度的影响比较复杂,有的增大有的减小,表明电子跃迁光谱强度受外场影响。

Generation of a uniform high-density microwave plasma for CO2 lasers using orthogonal electric fields

To realize a CO₂ laser using a fast-axial-flow high-output-power microwave discharge excitation, we devised a technology for making the microwave discharge uniform by varying the oscillation direction of an electric field with time. We also verified the effectiveness of this technology. As a result, we succeeded in increasing the discharge uniformity to 70% of the laser-tube cross-sectional area and realized a high laser output power and a high laser efficiency. In the case of a microwave input power of 1450 W, a maximum laser output power of 273 W and a laser efficiency of 18.8% were achieved; in the case of a microwave input power of 1070 W, a laser output power of 214 W and a laser efficiency of 20.0% were achieved. At the time of maximum output power, a high input power density of 280 W/cm³, which is approximately 20 times that in a dc discharge method, was achieved. Thus, a high-output-power microwave-discharge-excited CO₂ laser has become feasible. PACS 42.60.By; 52.80.Pi     

Microwave breakdown of air initiated by a short electromagnetic vibrator

The electrical breakdown of air (under a pressure from several tens of Torr to several hundreds of Torr) is initiated in a linearly polarized quasi-optical microwave beam using a rounded-end cylindrical metallic electromagnetic vibrator placed parallel to the electric component of the microwave field. The vibrator is much shorter than the wavelength of the field. The field strength at the top of the vibrator as a function of its length is determined. An empiric expression relating the field strength at the top with the vibrator length-to-diameter ratio is found for the vibrator length range studied. The practicability of locally measuring the field in a quasioptical microwave beam is substantiated. The idea is to determine the maximal air pressure at which electrical breakdown of air initiated by a short vibrator placed at a given point of the beam takes place.     

Electric discharge in air in a deeply subcritical field of a quasi-optical microwave beam

We describe the results of experiments on initiation of an electric discharge in air in a quasi-optical microwave beam by an electromagnetic vibrator fixed above the screen. This method for initiating the electrical breakdown makes it possible to obtain a discharge at a level of the electric field component in the microwave, which two orders of magnitude lower than the minimal critical field of the electrodeless breakdown of air. In our experiments, the threshold value of the air pressure determining the low- and high-temperature forms of the microwave discharge are determined depending on the field level.     

Ordered dust structures in glow discharge plasmas

Ordering of dust grains suspended in glow discharge plasmas into quasi-steady liquid-or crystallike structures in an external field is considered. The self-consistent electric field generated by free electrons, ions, and dust grains is found. An estimate is obtained for the confining potential required to hold dust grains in the direction perpendicular to the discharge axis. It is shown that the potential energy of interaction between ordered dust particles has the form characteristic of ionic crystals. Critical parameters are estimated for a liquidlike dust structure. The correlation function calculated for a dusty plasma by using this approach is compared with a measured one.     

Influence of temperature on the ionization coefficient and ignition voltage of the Townsend discharge in an argon–mercury vapor mixture

The kinetics of main types of charged and excited particles present in a low-current discharge in an argon–mercury vapor mixture used in gas-discharge illuminating lamps has been investigated in a wide interval of the reduced electric field strength and temperature. Mechanisms behind the production and loss of ions and metastable atoms have been discovered, and the temperature dependences of their contributions to maintaining their balance have been determined. It has been shown that, when the discharge is initiated in the lamp and the mercury content in the mixture is low, the ionization coefficient exceeds that in pure argon, which is almost exclusively due to the Penning reaction. The influence of this reaction grows with a reduction of the electric field strength in the interelectrode gap. The dependences of the discharge ignition voltage on the interelectrode gap (Paschen curves) for different temperatures of the mixture have been calculated, and the nonmonotonicity of the temperature dependence of the ignition voltage has been explained.
