Near-cathode plasma layer on CuCr contacts of vacuum arcs

A model of near-cathode layers in vacuum arcs is developed. The model relies on a numerical solution of the problem of near-cathode space-charge sheath with ionization of atoms emitted by the cathode surface, and allows the selfconsistent determination of all parameters of the near-cathode layer, in...
