Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Breakdown voltage characteristics (Paschen curves) in Townsend discharges are often used to estimate secondary electron emission (SEE) coefficients of cathode materials. The gamma effect deduced from the conventional methodology, which gives secondary electron flux per ion flux flowing onto the cathode surface, includes the effects of back-scattering effects as well as photoemission effects and depends on the external electric field. In the present study, a different estimation method of electric-field-independent SEE coefficient is attempted by counting the collision events of electrons by Monte Carlo simulation and by a simple one-dimensional model. The Paschen curve obtained using the estimated gamma agreed well with the literature values of Wittenberg et. al.
