Initiation of the high-frequency discharge


Play all audios:

ABSTRACT WHEN the gas hydrogen in a wide tube is excited by means of a high-frequency alternating potential _V_sin2_nt_, applied between two parallel plate electrodes, the relation beotween


the sparking potential _V__8_sin2_nt_, the gas pressure _p_, and the inter-electrode distance _d_ for values of _pd_ in excess of the critical value is of the simple form _V__8_ = _A_ +


_Bpd_, whore _B_ is a gas constant and _A_ depends upon the frequency _n_ and the electrode surfaces1. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING VIEWED BY OTHERS RECOVERY OF HYDROGEN PLASMA AT THE
