空心阴极放电流体模型分步电离速率电势电子密度 hollow cathode discharge fluid model step-wise ionization rate potential electron density

摘要

利用流体模型模拟研究了氦气空心阴极放电的时空动力学过程, 计算得到了不同放电时刻电子和亚稳态氦原子密度、电势、电场、基态电离速率和分步电离速率等的时空分布特性。特别是讨论了亚稳态原子和分步电离对于放电的影响。结果表明, 随着电流的增长, 放电处于五个不同的放电模式: 第一阶段电流上升非常缓慢, 为汤生放电模式, 带电粒子密度、亚稳态原子密度和径向电场均很弱; 第二阶段电流迅速上升, 放电模式由汤生放电向空心阴极放电过渡, 带电粒子密度、亚稳态原子密度和径向电场迅速增强; 第三阶段达到准稳态阶段, 放电电流增长速度变缓, 形成了明显的阴极鞘层结构; 第四阶段为空心阴极效应形成阶段, 向稳态阶段过渡; 第五阶段为稳态放电阶段。研究结果同时表明, 亚稳态氦原子和分步电离在放电的初始阶段对于放电的发展作用较弱, 在前三阶段中, 电子的产生以基态电离为主。随着放电的发展, 由亚稳态原子引起的分步电离对新的电子产生的作用逐渐接近并超过基态电离, 对总电离的贡献率越来越高。

Abstract

In this paper, the spatiotemporal dynamics of hollow cathode discharge in helium is simulated by using the fluid model. The spatiotemporal distribution of electrons density, metastable helium atoms density, potential, electric field, direct ionization rate and step-wise ionization are calculated. In particular, the effects of metastable atoms and step-wise ionization on the discharge are discussed. The results show that the discharge is divided into five different discharge modes with the increase of current. In the first stage, the discharge is Townsend discharge mode, the current rises very slowly, and the charged particle density, metastable atom density and radial electric field are very weak. In the second stage, the current increases rapidly, and the discharge mode changes from the Townsend discharge to the hollow cathode discharge. The charged particle density, metastable atom density and radial electric field increase rapidly. The third stage reaches the quasi steady state, and the discharge current increases slowly, resulting in an obvious cathode sheath structure; The fourth stage is the formation stage of the hollow cathode effect, and transits to the steady state. The fifth stage is the steady-state discharge stage. The results also show that the metastable helium atoms and the stepwise ionization are weak in the initial stage of the discharge, and in the initial three stages, the formation of new electrons are dominated by ground ionization. With the development of the discharge, the stepwise ionization caused by the metastable atoms gradually approaches and exceeds the ground ionization, and the contribution rate to the total ionization is getting higher and higher.
