We report on the results of successful implementation of full grid control in a cesium discharge with a cathode spot. The
discharge is quenched by a negative grid pulse for a discharge current density up to 75 A/cm2 in the grid plane for voltage switching up to 100 V in the pressure range 0.5–1.5 Pa for a voltage drop of 5–6 V in the discharge.
It is shown that quenching is the break-off type. The discovered effect of “evacuation” of the heavy component (ions) from
the grid-anode gap to the cathode region leads to an unusually long (hundreds of microseconds) time of stabilization of the
steady state in the discharge under the experimental conditions. 相似文献

Stable ignition and sustention of a pulsed discharge with a current of up to 180 A and duration of 12 μs at a pressure of 10−1–10−2 Pa are achieved in a glow-discharge plasma cathode with the help of an auxiliary initiating discharge. An electron emission current density of up to 100 A/cm2 and accelerating voltageof 15 kV are obtained in a gas-filled diode based on this type of a plasma cathode. An electron beam witha neutralized space charge can be transported almost without losses in a weak axial magnetic field alonga plasma channel formed due to the gas ionization by the accelerated electrons over a distance of up to 30 cm. 相似文献

A study is made of the effect of pulse repetition rate (0.1−103 s−1) and average discharge current (0–1 A) on the breakdown delay time and burning voltage of low-pressure glow discharges (p<0.1 Pa) in an electrode system of the reverse magnetron type with a large cathode surface area (≈103 cm2). It is shown that increasing the repetition rate leads to a many-fold reduction in the statistical spread in the delay time
and in the discharge formation time, while the average discharge current has a significant effect on the burning voltage.
The mechanism for the observed phenomena is interpreted qualitatively in terms of the presence of thin dielectric films on
the cathode surface.

The radial expansion velocities and diameters of spark channels in air are measured by the plasma-metal contact method. An
LC discharge circuit with energy up to 50 kJ and with current frequencies ranging from ∼102 to ∼104 Hz served as the source of the channels. It is concluded on the basis of the results obtained that the previously proposed
automatic plasma crowbar based on the expansion of spark channels in gases is a universal switch for an inductive load in
LC discharge circuits that could find very wide applications in high pulsed current and magnetic field technology.

Variation of parameters of a reflex discharge with a hollow cathode operating continuously in propane with a flow rate of
1.3–5.6 (m3 mPa)/s and a discharge current of 0.1–0.4 A is analyzed. It is shown that for a hydrocarbon flow rate of 2.4 (m3 mPa)/s and higher, an increase in the discharge voltage takes place after a time interval depending on the discharge current
and gas pressure; this is explained by the formation of coating of the dissociation products of hydrocarbon molecules on the
electrodes of the discharge chamber. An increase in the thickness of the carbon coating of the cathodes with time and their
charging with ions lead to electric breakdown of coatings and the formation of cathode spots. The oscillograms of the discharge
current and voltage indicate a short-term transformation of the glow discharge into the arc discharge. The energy spectra
of ions emerging from the discharge are measured, and the effect of the discharge current and the gas flow rate on the energy
spread of ions is analyzed. The operation time of the discharge in hydrocarbon after which the cleaning of the discharge chamber
is required is determined. The possibility of using an ion source based on the reflex discharge with a hollow cathode for
technological purposes is established. 相似文献

The process of formation of high-density low-energy (5–10 keV) pulsed electron beams of small diameter (on the order of a
few millimeters) in a gun of the “channel-spark” type is studied. It is shown that beams with a rate of rise of the current
exceeding 1011 A/s and an amplitude exceeding the Alfvén current by a factor of 1.5–2.0 can be obtained in experiments with intense preionisation
of the transport channel combined with a pulsed supply of the accelerating voltage to the cathode. In the optimal pressure
mode, the current density at a distance of 2–3 cm from the gun outlet is 40–25 kA/cm2, which will ensure ablation of most solid targets. 相似文献

An attempt is made to create an electric-discharge source for pumping argon, krypton, and xenon dimer lasers. The device is
based on a method proposed previously by the authors, wherein confinement of the discharge is achieved by removing the cathode
spot from the main discharge region and closing the discharge to the spot along a narrow extended auxiliary plasma channel.
The conditions for the formation of such a discharge are investigated. The high stability of the sparkless stage of the discharge
permits the first-ever attainment of energy depositions at the level of 100 J/cm2 at pressures ∼10 atm, a level several orders of magnitude higher than is attainable by conventional methods. A discharge
cell and power supply system are designed for a multisectional discharge with an active length of 200 mm, and the reliability
of the entire apparatus is demonstrated in long-term use.

Experimental data for the electrical and optical characteristics of a transverse slot-cathode nanosecond discharge are reported.
The discharge is initiated in He at a discharge current of 1–500 A and a working gas pressure in a discharge chamber ranging
from 102 to 104 Pa. It is shown that the cathode current density is much (several orders of magnitude) higher than the total current density
of an equivalent abnormal discharge. The electrical characteristics of an open discharge and a discharge confined by dielectric
walls are found to differ considerably. Electrons passing through the cathode fall region acquire a high energy (on the order
of 1 keV) under the given conditions. The fast electron relaxation conditions correlate with the initiation and evolution
of the discharge. A pattern of the discharge evolution is derived from experimental data. A way of estimating the coefficient
of electron emission from the cathode plasma is suggested. 相似文献

This paper considers the physical processes associated with the extraction of electrons from the gas discharge plasma in plasma
emitters where the emission boundary is stabilized with a fine grid. The ways of improving the uniformity of the emission
current density distribution are discussed. Accelerators designed on the basis of plasma emitters are capable of producing
pulsed beams of current 10–103 A, current density 0.1–1.0 A/cm2, pulse duration 10−7–10−3 s, and cross-sectional area up to 104 cm2.

A steady-state Penning ion source is studied experimentally. Depending on the geometric parameter l
a
(the anode length to diameter ratio) and pressure, maxima are observed in the discharge current and in the ion beam current
extracted from an aperture at the center of the cathode. It is shown that at pressures of the order of 10−4 Torr, two maxima appear in these currents: one, for short discharge gaps with l
a
=1–1.5, corresponds to a diverging ion beam, and the other, for longer anodes with l
a
=4–5, to a collimated ion beam. At pressures of the order of 10−5 Torr, only one maximum appears in these currents, for short anodes l
a
=2–3 with a diverging ion beam. A physical explanation is proposed for these findings.

An electron-emitting source generating a low-energy beam measuring 1–3 cm in diameter, with current up to 300 A, pulse duration
within 50–200 μs, and pulse repetition frequency up to 10 Hz is investigated in a gas-filled diode with a mesh plasma cathode
at the accelerating voltage up to 25 kV. The beam is transported in a longitudinal pulsed magnetic field to a distance of
up to 30 cm towards the region of its interaction with a solid. For the current densities up to 100 A/cm2, it provides the power density as high as 10–100 J/cm2 sufficient to melt surfaces of metals, alloys, and composite (metalloceramic) materials within one or a few pulses. This
makes this beam useful for modification of material surfaces and articles made thereof. Using the methods of optical, scanning
and diffraction electron microscopy, by building micro-and nanohardness profiles, and via identification of the treated surface
roughness, the phase composition and the substructure state of the materials subjected to pulsed low-energy e-beam of sub-millimeter
durations are investigated. Formation of submicro-and nanocrystalline multi-phase structure is observed, which ensures a multiple
increase in physico-mechanical and tribological characteristics of the treated material.

A study is made of self-sustained glow discharges in transverse gas flows and jets. The distributions of the discharge current
and voltage over the elements of a sectioned cathode array are measured along with the temperature of the cathode array. The
limiting current and discharge voltage corresponding to the transition from a uniformly burning discharge to a contracted
state are measured. Two-dimensional and one-dimensional systems of equations for the gas dynamics and vibrational kinetics
are used for a numerical analysis of the experimental data, and the results are used to determine the character of the distribution
of E/N in the discharge, where E is the electric field and N is the molecular density. The heat balance of the cathode array is calculated. A model is proposed for self-consistently
calculating the parameters of the gas flow, the distribution of the current over the cathode array, and the discharge voltage,
as well as the values of the ballast resistances.

A discharge system is proposed in which an auxiliary gas discharge is used to inject electrons into the cathode cavity of
a hollow-cathode glow discharge. A study is made of the region of stable existence of a non-self-sustaining hollow-cathode
discharge. It is shown that the injection of electrons permits a reduction to <10−2 Pa in the minimum pressure at which a discharge can exist. It is shown experimentally that this discharge can be used to
generate wide-aperture ion beams.

The main parameters of the plasma of high-current hydrogen-cesium glow discharges of surface-plasma (planotron and Penning)
sources of negative hydrogen ions are determined using contact-free spectroscopic methods and compared for identical discharge
current densities. The elemental and charge composition of the plasma is established. The temperature of the hydrogen atoms
and the energy of the visible-range radiation of the plasma discharge are measured and estimates of the electron density in
the plasma are made. The dynamics of the change in the parameters of the discharge plasma of a Penning source — the densities
of hydrogen atoms, cesium atoms and ions, and molybdenum atoms — is tracked during a discharge pulse with spatial resolution
along two coordinates. It is observed that cesium atoms and ions and molybdenum atoms are pent up near the cathode surface.

This paper considers the electrical and optical characterization of glow
discharge pulsed plasma in N2/H2 gas mixtures at a pressures range
between 0.5 and 4.0 Torr and discharge current between 0.2 and 0.6 A.
Electron temperature and ion density measurements were performed employing a
double Langmuir probe. They were found to increase rapidly as the H2
percentage in the mixture was increased up to 20%. This increase slows
down as the H2 percentage in the gas mixture was increased above 20%
at the same pressure. Emission spectroscopy was employed to observe emission from the pulsed
plasma of a steady-state electric discharge. The discharge mainly emits
within the range 280–500 nm. The emission consists of N2 (C-X) 316, 336,
358 nm narrow peaks and a broad band with a maximum at λmax = 427 nm. Also lines of N2, N2
+ and NH excited states were
observed. All lines and bands have their maximum intensity at the discharge
current of 0.417 A. The intensities of the main bands and spectral lines are
determined as functions of the total pressure and discharge current.
Agreement with other theoretical and experimental groups was established. 相似文献

The limiting current of a self-sustained glow discharge is calculated. Two-dimensional equations for the flow of a viscous,
vibrationally nonequilibrium gas and a model of the cathode sheath are used. The validity of the approximations which form
the basis of the cathode sheath model was tested with experimental data for anomalous and normal currents. The effects of
laminar and turbulent gas flow and of the geometric dimensions of the channel on the limiting discharge current are examined.

Experiments are described in which a plasma focus is used simultaneously as an inductive store and a current switch. The obtained
rates of current growth on a load of 0.01 Ω is 1012 A/s, and the maximum values of the switched current lie in the range 50–100 kA. The technique is seen as promising for employing
a capillary discharge as a source of laser medium for the soft x-ray region.

The transition of a low-current discharge with a self-heated hollow cathode to a high-current discharge is studied, and stability conditions for the latter in the pulsed–periodic mode with a current of 0.1–1.0 kA, pulse width of 0.1–1.0 ms, and a pulse repetition rate of 0.1–1.0 kHz are determined. The thermal conditions of the hollow cathode are analyzed, and the conclusion is drawn that the emission current high density is due to pulsed self-heating of the cathode’s surface layer. Conditions for stable emission from a plasma cathode with a grid acting as a plasma boundary using such a discharge are found at low accelerating voltage (100–200 eV) and a gas pressure of 0.1–0.4 Pa. The density of the ion current from a plasma generated by a pulsed beam with a current of 100 A is found to reach 0.1 A/cm2. Probe diagnostics data for the emitting and beam plasmas in the electron source are presented, and a mechanism behind the instability of electron emission from the plasma is suggested on their basis. 相似文献
