真空弧离子源在真空镀膜、材料表面改性、真空大电流开关、加速器离子注入等领域有广泛应用,目前国内外对真空弧放电等离子体的研究主要针对纯金属或合金电极,对含氢电极的研究和公开报道较少.本文利用高时空分辨的四分幅图像诊断系统,结合氢和钛原子特征线单色器件,研究了含氢钛电极的真空弧微秒级脉冲放电等离子体的轴向和径向时空分布特性.研究表明:在真空击穿阶段,阳极区域发光更为明显,阳极电极解吸附释放的氢原子是引发击穿的主要放电介质;在真空弧阶段,阴极-绝缘-真空三结合点处产生圆锥状阴极斑,喷射出大量的等离子体以维持弧放电,同时电极内壁非阴极斑区域也有少量等离子体产生,等离子体中H原子的轴向和径向空间分布均比Ti原子均匀.

低气压氙气介质阻挡放电的一维仿真研究

通过建立一个自洽耦合的一维流体模型来描述低气压氙气介质阻挡放电(DBD),并采用有限元法对模型进行数值仿真研究,得到了不同外加电压幅值和频率下的气体间隙压降、放电电流、介质表面电荷随时间的变化关系以及电子、离子、中性粒子和空间电场的时域分布.仿真结果表明:介质表面电荷对放电的点燃与熄灭起着关键的作用;在一个放电周期内,根据气体间隙压降的变化情况,介质表面电荷可按六个阶段进行分析;随着外施电压幅值的增加,间隙击穿逐渐提前至外施电压过零点之前发生,放电更为剧烈;随着外施电压频率的提高,气体间隙压降减小,间隙容易击穿,放电也更加均匀.粒子及空间电场的时域分布表明氙气DBD为典型的辉光放电.     

发射光谱研究多针对板正电晕放电形貌

利用光学发射光谱(OES)法检测N₂发射光谱,研究了常压下多针对板正电晕放电中辉光放电和击穿流光放电的高能电子分布,并与相同电极结构下负电晕放电进行了比较。根据N₂第二正态激发谱峰I_SPB在空间的分布,较精确地确定了辉光放电电离区形貌和击穿流光放电电通道形貌,体积分辉光放电中I_SPB获知I_SPB与放电电流I之间的关系。辉光放电中,电离区范围和I_SPB比负电晕放电小,电子雪崩沿针径向比沿轴向发展范围大;随着U升高,电离区范围只沿针轴向小幅度增大;I_SPB的积分值与I近似成二阶线性关系。击穿流光放电中,针板之间形成放电通道;针尖周围I_SPB较强的区域成“子弹状”,距离针尖较远的放电通道内高能电子密度沿针轴向分布比较均匀,沿针径向先略有增大后减小。

Interaction between plasma and electromagnetic field in ion source of 10 cm ECR ion thruster

Through diagnosing the plasma density and calculating the intensity of microwave electric field, four 10 cm electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion sources with different magnetic field structures are studied to reveal the inside interaction between the plasma, magnetic field and microwave electric field. From the diagnosing result it can be found that the plasma density distribution is controlled by the plasma generation and electron loss volumes associated with the magnetic field and microwave power level. Based on the cold plasma hypothesis and diagnosing result, the microwave electric field intensity distribution in the plasma is calculated. The result shows that the plasma will significantly change the distribution of the microwave electric field intensity to form a bow shape. From the boundary region of the shape to the center, the electric field intensity varies from higher to lower and the diagnosed density inversely changes. If the bow and its inside lower electric field intensity region are close to the screen grid, the performance of ion beam extracting will be better. The study can provide useful information for the creating of 10 cm ECR ion source and understanding its mechanism.

EAST ������ICRF ���ߵ���ά��ų�����

The performance of the four strap ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) antenna in EAST was studied by three dimensional electromagnetic code CST MWS. The coupling impedance with various frequencies, the distribution of current on straps and the power spectra for the three types of phases were calculated. The voltage breakdown and ICRF-related impurity were also studied. Simulation results show that the coupling impedance and power spectrum of the antenna design were reasonable, however, highest electric field, which is 3.61MV•m⁻¹ for (0, 0, 0, 0) toroidal phasing at the local area, exceeds the empirical value of breakdown. After the structure size was optimized, the maximum of E-field was below the breakdown value, the results also show that the high radio frequency (RF) potential was close to the antenna limiter, the RF potential along total B-field in front of Faraday screens 10mm for (0, π, π, 0) phasing was one-third of that for (0, 0, π, π) phasing.     

Investigation of RF breakdowns on the MILO

Describes a series of experiments performed to isolate the RF breakdown mechanisms in the hard tube magnetically insulated transmission line oscillator (MILO) Experiment at the Air Force Phillips Laboratory, Albuquerque, NM. Specifically, several causes of RF breakdown in the region of the vacuum-air interface and the antenna region have been investigated. These causes are X-ray induced electron emission, VUV and visible photoemission of electrons, and breakdown due to large field stresses in the antenna. Each of these mechanisms has the effect of liberating electrons from a surface in a high field region which then are a seed for a breakdown. This paper discusses measurements in the X-ray, VUV, and visible regimes with support from computer simulation. Also, imagery results are shown, which in conjunction with the computer work, point to the presence of high electric field stresses in the antenna, which cause a subsequent breakdown. In particular, X-rays, VUV, visible light, and plasmas do not seem to be the major source of RF breakdown in this tube     

Influence of space charge related to water trees on the breakdown voltage of power cable insulation

A three-dimensional computation of the electric field and breakdown voltage in power cable insulation containing water trees and space charges is presented. The breakdown voltage and the conductivity of cylindrical samples of cable insulation containing water trees were measured. The samples have been aged in wet environment under ac voltages of frequencies comprised between 1 and 5 kHz. Exponential and parabolic spatial variations of permittivity and space charge density and the electrostatic, electro-kinetic and quasi-stationary regimes of the electric field were considered. The best correlation between the experimental breakdown voltage and the calculated one has been obtained in quasi-stationary regime.     

Kinetic modeling of positive ions in a low-pressure RF discharge

The evolution of the ion-velocity distribution function in a planar RF discharge is computed by numerically solving the Boltzmann equation in phase space. The electric field in this equation is computed with regard to the ion density, assuming Maxwellian electrons with a given uniform temperature. The collision term in the Boltzmann equation contains creation of ions by electron-impact ionization of the background gas and the effect of charge-exchange collisions. Examples are given of the behavior of discharges in argon at RF frequencies of 50 kHz, 300 kHz, and 15 MHz at a very low pressure and at a pressure of approximately 40 Pa. A good agreement is found with published experimental observations of the time-dependent behavior of the electric field profile in the RF sheath
