Glow discharge plasma switch controlled by a small magnetic field
A cold plasma switch scheme with opening and closing capabilities is reported. An externally applied magnetic field causes a low pressure hollow cathode discharge to transition from a low impedance mode sustained by oscillating beam electrons into a virtually collisionless high impedance mode. The impedance of a 10 A discharge was demonstrated to increase by 20 with the application of a field o...
متن کاملThe Influence of External Magnetic Field on the Radiation Emitted by Negative Glow of a Dc Glow Discharge
This work represents a first attempt to use the cylindrical coaxial magnetron discharge (CCMD), obtained in air, as a light source. The main purpose was to realize a high efficiency of conversion of electric power to visible light and to optimize the operating conditions to minimize the cost of the light source, employing a cheap gas (air) and moderate voltage in the range of several hundreds v...
متن کاملMicrosilicon luminous flux switch controlled by means of magnetic field
The construction of a silicon beam which is used as a optical switch was presented. The investigated beam consists of three layers: on the silicon base the iron layer is put and it is followed by the aluminium layer. The change of the external magnetic field intensity causes the beam end displacement as well as the change of the luminous flux reflection angle. The influence of the magnetic tran...
متن کاملDouble Langmuir probe measurement of plasma parameters in a dc glow discharge
In this paper, plasma main characteristics such as electron mean temperature, electron number density, and oscillation frequency have been measured experimentally using the double Langmuir probe diagnostic system. In our experiment, the plasma was generated by applying the low pressure dc glow discharge in several common gases. The experimental results indicated the highest plasma density and o...
متن کاملDynamics of an excitable glow-discharge plasma under external forcing.
Glow discharge plasma in the excitable regime shows rich dynamical behavior under external forcing. By perturbing the plasma with a subthreshold sawtooth periodic signal, we obtained small subthreshold oscillations that showed resonance with the perturbation frequency. The resonance phenomenon can be useful to estimate characteristic of an excitable system. However, for suprathreshold perturbat...
