Electron drift velocity diagnostics in fine tube external electrode fluorescent lamps

Abstract: A new non-invasive method for the determination of electron drift velocity has been investigated by measuring the light propagation signals in external electrode fluorescent lamps with two usual operation methods. At the luminance of 12 000 cd m−2 with an operation frequency of 65 kHz, the electron drift velocity in accordance with the propagation speed of light emission is measured to be 2.72 × 105 m s−1. From the electron drift velocity, the electron temperature and the plasma density in the positive column … Show more

“…The characteristics of light emission in a fine tube fluorescent lamp have been reported, specifically the propagation of a light-emitting wave-front along a tube driven by high voltage AC. 3,4) The previous observations have not been reported elsewhere to our knowledge since the fluorescent lamps have been introduced commercially in the 1940's. Generally, a moving light source in the positive column plasma has been associated with ''striation''.…”
