Obtaining Electron Attachment and Ionization Rates from Simultaneous Analysis of Electron and Ion Swarms in a Pulsed Townsend Setup
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a procedure to obtain electron attachment and ionization rates in a pulsed Townsend experiment. Temporal drift currents for electrons and ions are analyzed using electron and ion current models. Measurements are performed in a highly automated pulsed Townsend setup in CO2 to determine electron attachment and ionization rates as well as ion drift velocities of positive and negative ions for different reduced electric field strengths.

Pulsed Townsend Technique in Electronegative Gases
The identification of alternatives to SF6 requires a study of the effective coefficient of electron attachment to electronegative gases and gas mixtures. One well established method for obtaining the attachment coefficient is the determination of swarm parameters using the pulsed Townsend discharge (PTD). From theoretical considerations and finite element calculations design guidelines for a PT...

Using the pulsed Townsend method the electron swarm parameters have been measured for c-C4F8O in buffer gases Ar, N2 or CO2 with mixing ratios ≤ 1.2%. The measurements were performed in a novel Pulsed Townsend experiment [1] that can operate with a high degree of automation. The evaluated parameters presented here are the effective ionization rate, the critical field strength and the electron a...
