Abstract:Electrons can escape from the cathode surface by acquiring enough energy greater than the work function or weakening the potential barrier at the cathode surface through tunneling effects in gas discharges, which plays a dominant role in the plasma-cathode interactions and is a key factor in many plasma phenomena and industrial applications. It is necessary to illustrate the various electron emission mechanisms and corresponding applicable description models to evaluate the impacts on discharge properties, esp… Show more
