Effect of Nitrogen Gas Pressure and Hollow Cathode Geometry on the Luminous Intensity Emitted from Glow Discharge Plasma

Abstract: The paper investigates the luminous intensity emitted from dc hollow cathode glow discharge plasma (HCGD) .The experiments were conducted at different nitrogen gas pressures ranged from (0.015 to 0.75Torr) and constant discharge current (Id=1.88 mA).The influence of both pressure and hollow cathode geometry such as diameter and depth of hollow cathode have been studied .The results show that the Photo-Luminous Efficiency emitted from the hollow cathode glow discharge decrease nearly exponentially with the incr… Show more

“…This behavior may be explained as, the presence of magnetic field causes to increase the plasma confinement and this will increase the electron inelastic collision with argon atoms and causes to decrease the electron temperature. This is due to the characteristics of hollow cathode at the low pressures to produce more energetic excitation [9]. Fig.…”

“…The main application of glow discharge is to use its luminous effect, such as neon lamp and fluorescent lamp [12][13][14][15] . Glow discharge is also used in composition analysis of material surface peeling, surface purification, sewage treatment, sterilization and disinfection, ion source of analytical instruments, plasma nitriding, double glow surface alloying, etc [16][17][18][19][20][21] .…”
