The review relates to low-pressure discharges with a hollow cathode and a hollow anode.
The term'low pressure'implies that a neutral particle density is extremely small and the …

Ionization gas sensors are ubiquitous tools that can monitor desired gases or detect
abnormalities in real time to protect the environment of living organisms or to maintain clean …

This article presents an overview of recent advances in the field of electron kinetics in low-
temperature plasmas (LTPs). It also provides author's views on where the field is headed …

A short atmospheric pressure argon arc is studied numerically and analytically. In a short arc
with an inter-electrode gap of several millimeters, non-equilibrium effects in plasma play an …

We report one-dimensional kinetic simulation of electron and ion transport and multiplication
(based on the Boltzmann kinetic equations) in a self-consistent electric field after electron …

We demonstrate the formation and transition behaviors of a microplasma around
microstructure arrays at different gas pressures via two-dimensional particle-in-cell/Monte …

Growing demand for efficient, high-resolution surface processing has led to the emergence
of a rich variety of plasma-based technologies underpinned by an equally wide range of …

Ever since they have been studied, gas discharges have been classified by their visual
appearance as well as by their current and voltage levels. Glow and arc discharges are the …

In this work, the Paschen curves and current–voltage characteristics of three large-area
short glow discharge structures with grid and solid plate electrodes are studied. The study of …

The hollow cathode lifetime is largely determined by the dissipation of the active emitter
material and the ion-induced sputtering erosion. These two critical factors are involved in the …
