Effective emission of Xe₂* and Kr₂* excited by a pulsed corona discharge bounded by a dielectric barrier

Abstract

Experimental time-amplitude and spectral emission curves fromnm), and Ar * 2 (λ = 126 nm) molecules excited by a dielectric barrier bounded pulsed corona discharge are presented as a function of gas pressure, pulse repetition rate, and average excitation power. Experimentally, under optimal conditions, the Xe and Kr dimers emission efficiency were 45-50 and 25-28%, respectively.

Влияние плотности атомов буферного газа на форму эксимерной полосы HgXe(A-=SUP=-3-=/SUP=-0-=SUP=-+-=/SUP=-)-> HgXe(X-=SUP=-1-=/SUP=-0-=SUP=-+-=/SUP=-)

“…При этом особо интересны смеси с ксеноном, так как по сравнению с другими инертными газами для таких гетерои гомоядерных эксимеров характерно наличие сравнительно мощной потенциальной ямы и, как следствие, более широкополосный спектральный диапазон излучения. Перспективными оказываются не только эксимеры с атомами металлов, но также эксимеры с атомами галогенов [15], гетероядерные [16] и гомоядерные [17] эксимеры атомов инертных газов.…”

Vacuum-ultraviolet excilamps with excitation by a barrier corona discharge

“…As a possible way to reduce the energy losses under these conditions, we proposed in Ref. 13 to use a pulsed barrier corona discharge, since a ballast resistor need not be used in this case. By using a dielectric barrier, the diffuse shape of the discharge was maintained under conditions in which a corona discharge with no dielectric barrier changed to a spark discharge.…”

About the Uniformity and the Stability of a Volume Discharge in Helium in Near-Atmospheric Pressure

“…One of the applications of volume discharges in inert gases is gas laser pumping. In this case, in order to increase the power characteristics of gas lasers, we need (i) to improve the pumping methods and (ii) to optimize the excitation conditions [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. A problem of pumping optimization consists in the reception of certain electric characteristics of discharge plasma with a constant spatial uniformity during the pumping.…”
