متن کاملSecondary electron emission studies
Secondary-electron-emission processes under electron bombardment play an important role in the performance of a variety of electron devices. While in some devices, the anode and the grid require materials that suppress the secondary-electron-generation process, the crossed-field amplifier (CFA) is an example where the cathode requires an efficient secondaryelectron-emission material. Secondary-...
متن کاملSecondary-Electron-Emission Instability in a Plasma
A 200-eV electron beam is incident on an electrode in a laboratory plasma. The emission of secondary electrons produces a region of negative differential resistance in the current-voltage characteristic of the electrode. Spontaneous dynatron oscillations are driven by the negative differential resistance when a resonant circuit is placed in series with the electrode. The instability is driven b...
متن کاملGeneral cause of sheath instability identified for low collisionality plasmas in devices with secondary electron emission.
A condition for sheath instability due to secondary electron emission (SEE) is derived for low collisionality plasmas. When the SEE coefficient of the electrons bordering the depleted loss cone in energy space exceeds unity, the sheath potential is unstable to a negative perturbation. This result explains three different instability phenomena observed in Hall thruster simulations including a ne...
متن کاملInvestigation of effect of excitation frequency on electron energy distribution functions in low pressure radio frequency bounded plasmas
Particle in cell (PIC) simulations are employed to investigate the effect of excitation frequency x on electron energy distribution functions (EEDFs) in a low pressure radio frequency (rf) discharge. The discharge is maintained over a length of 0.10 m, bounded by two infinite parallel plates, with the coherent heating field localized at the center of the discharge over a distance of 0.05 m and ...
