A form of electrical conduction in low-pressure gases (plasmas) that emits light.
NE-2 type neon lamp powered by alternating current
A form of electrical conduction in low-pressure gases (plasmas) that emits light.
Voltage-current characteristics of electrical discharge in neon at 1 torr, with two planar electrodes separated by 50 cm. A: random pulses by cosmic radiation B: saturation current C: avalanche Townsend discharge D: self-sustained Townsend discharge E: unstable region: corona discharge F: sub-normal glow discharge G: normal glow discharge H: abnormal glow discharge I: unstable region: glow-arc transition J: electric arc K: electric arc A-D region: dark discharge; ionisation occurs, current below 10 microamps. F-H region: glow discharge; the plasma emits a faint glow. I-K region: arc discharge; large amounts of radiation produced.
A form of electrical conduction in low-pressure gases (plasmas) that emits light.
A glow discharge illustrating the different regions comprising it and a diagram giving their names.
