Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a low-temperature, plasma, thermionic converter is described. The converter uses a third electrode to ionize plasma so as to neutralize the space charge. The lower temperature thus achieved should significantly prolong the life of the converter and contribute to the development of a more reliable power supply for space application. Research was directed toward optimizing geometry and operating characteristics and investigating the effects of temperature and pressure, starting pulse, magnetic fields, and operation in both series and parallel circuitry. Materials were investigated to achieve practical electrodes by determining compatibility of material, atmospheric corrosion, and gas permeation. Converters were fabricated, evaluated, and life tested with the parameters optimized by the test program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book resulted from the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on “Electron Kinetics and Applications of Glow Discharges,” held in St. Petersburg, Russia, on May 19-23, 1997. Glow discharges have found widespread applications in many technological processes from the manufacture of semiconductors, to recent developments in na- technology, to the traditional fields of gas lasers, and discharge lamps. Consequently, the interest in the physics of glow discharges has experienced yet another resurgence of interest. While the non-equilibrium character of glow discharges is widely accepted, the opinion still prevails that the main features can be captured by fluid models, and that kinetic treatments are only required for the understanding of subtle details. The erroneousness of this belief is demonstrated by the failure of fluid models to describe many basic features of glow discharges such as, for instance, electrode phenomena, striations, and collisionless heating effects. An adequate description of glow discharges thus has to be of kinetic nature.
