Electrodehyphen; and preionizerhyphen;geometry effects on TEA laser discharge formation

摘要

We show that both the shape of the electrodes and the spatial distribution of the preionization can play an important role in defining the crosshyphen;sectional shape of uvhyphen;preionized selfhyphen;sustained glow discharges in CO2laser mixtures. Studies of a homogeneous 10times;10times;100 cm3discharge are described.
