Lasers TEA. Ce sont des lasers Transverse Electrique à la pression Atmosphérique. Le champ électrique d'excitation est transversal, c'est-à-dire perpendiculaire à l'axe de la cavité résonnante. La pression des gaz est sensiblement la pression atmosphérique. La disposition transverse permet d'avoir des champs électriques importants sur de courtes distances. L'excitation est impulsionnelle. Les lasers TEA sont donc des lasers impulsionnels, pouvant émettre des énergies allant jusqu'à la centaine de joules, avec des durées d'impulsions inférieures à la microseconde. 1, record 2, French, - laser%20TEA

While the phenomenon has frequently been adopted and displayed as a mystical or psychic "aura, "the basic physical principles have been investigated... When a high-voltage charge is applied across electrodes arranged much like a large capacitor, a corona discharge can occur in the air space between. This discharge occurs well before high-current density will cause a spark to jump the gap.

Plasma nitriding(also known as glow discharge or Ion nitriding) is a low temperature, low distortion surface engineering process. A glow discharge plasma is used to transfer nitrogen(and in the case of plasma nitrocarburising nitrogen and carbon) to the surface of the components undergoing treatment. Operating at temperatures between 400°C and 750°C these plasma processes can produce high surface hardnesses and hardened depths up to 0. 8mm. 2, record 12, English, - plasma%20nitriding

La nitruration donne une couche superficielle dure extrêmement résistante à l'usure et à l'érosion. La couche nitrurée est toutefois fragile et peut se fissurer ou s'écailler lorsqu'elle est exposée à des chocs mécaniques ou thermiques, ce risque augmentant avec l'épaisseur de la couche [...] La nitruration à l'ammoniac à 510°C ou au plasma à 75% d'hydrogène et 25% d'azote à 480°C permet d'obtenir dans un cas comme dans l'autre une dureté superficielle de ~1000 HV0,2. En général la nitruration au plasma est la méthode préférable parce qu'elle autorise un meilleur contrôle du potentiel azote et permet en particulier d'éviter la formation de ce qu'il est convenu d'appeler la couche blanche, déconseillée pour le travail à chaud. 1, record 12, French, - nitruration%20au%20plasma

Classical DC(direct current) electrical discharge tube. In the glow discharge regime(10^14 to 5x10^18 charged particles/m^3, 10^4 to 5x10^4 K) the plasma is luminous due to excitation collisions by accelerated electrons. At high current densities the high heat load on the cathode triggers electron emission and the discharge changes to the highly luminous arc regime(10^20 to 10^25 charged particles/m^3, 2x10^3 to 10^5 K). 1, record 14, English, - discharge%20regime

As the current and voltage increase, the cathode current density also increases, ultimately heating the cathode and causing incandescence and thermionic emission. Once the cathode is hot enough to emit electrons thermionically, the discharge will change to an arc regime. 2, record 14, English, - discharge%20regime

Dessiccation de l'air. Il est indispensable que l'air d'alimentation de l'ozoneur soit très sec, en effet, du fait de la présence de vapeur d'eau, il se produit un abaissement de la valeur de la constante diélectrique du milieu gazeux, ce qui peut entraîner à la limite le passage du régime d'effluve à un régime d'arc; avec pour conséquence la détérioration plus ou moins rapide des électrodes. 1, record 14, French, - r%C3%A9gime%20d%27effluve

Photoionization detector... consists of a chamber into which gases suitable for the discharge such as helium, argon, nitrogen, or hydrogen are introduced through [a] tube which serves as the cathode for the discharge. The ultraviolet radiation or glow discharge in the hollow cathode, maintained by a small current between the cathode and discharge anode, is sufficiently energetic to ionize components in the carrier gas effluent entering through the tube, the collecting electrode(anode) for the ions liberated within the chamber enclosed by the second cathode. 5, record 15, English, - photoionization%20detector

Une version commerciale de ce détecteur est apparue récemment sur le marché, il est composé d'une lampe UV [détecteur à photoionisation] scellée qui émet un rayonnement à 121,6nm (10,2 eV) à travers une fenêtre en fluorure de magnésium. Si le soluté passant dans ce détecteur a un potentiel d'ionisation inférieur à 10,2eV, il s'ionise en absorbant un photon. Les ions issus de cette photoionisation sont collectés en appliquant un potentiel positif sur une des électrodes. Le courant qui en résulte est amplifié par un électromètre identique à celui utilisé avec un détecteur à ionisation de flamme. 1, record 15, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20%C3%A0%20photoionisation

In 1956, Harley and Pretorius described a simple discharge detector for gas chromatography based on the electrical properties of a glow discharge, the voltage across the gaseous discharge being a function of the type of gas present. Druyvesteyn and Penning in 1940 reviewed the complex nature of the glow discharge, noting that the discharge is maintained by electrons emitted from the cathode which result from processes related to positive ion bombardment, photoelectric emission, and collisions with excited atoms. When trace quantities of a material eluted from a chromatographic column enter the detector(consisting of a small platinum disk cathode and a tungsten wire anode), a voltage change resulted which was recorded. 2, record 16, English, - glow%20discharge%20detector

Using neon lamps Pitkethly found... that these detector were current and pressure independent at 1-1. 5 mS and 3-5 mm Hg.... In 1958, Roberts and Hinkle evaluated glow discharge tubes as detectors for compounds in the concentration range of 5-500 ppm and concluded that the detector was not applicable to general-purpose use.... More recently, Wilhite described glow discharge-type devices which act electrically similar to a gas-filled voltage-regulator tube... Riley described the use of an argon purity meter, a glow-type discharge detector, for the determination of small concentrations(0-1500 ppm) of impurity gases in argon. 2, record 16, English, - glow%20discharge%20detector
