Space Charge Modulated Electrical Breakdown [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractElectrical breakdown is one of the most important physical phenomena in electrical and electronic engineering. Since the early 20thcentury, many theories and models of electrical breakdown have been proposed, but the origin of one key issue, that the explanation for dc breakdown strength being twice or higher than ac breakdown strength in ...

The inception of pulsed discharges in air: simulations in background fields above and below breakdown [PDF]
, 2014 We investigate discharge inception in air, in uniform background electric fields above and below the breakdown threshold. We perform 3D particle simulations that include a natural level of background ionization in the form of positive and O$_{2}^-$ ions.

Electrical breakdown in tissue electroporation [PDF]
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2015 Electroporation, the permeabilization of the cell membrane by brief, high electric fields, has become an important technology in medicine for diverse application ranging from gene transfection to tissue ablation. There is ample anecdotal evidence that the clinical application of electroporation is often associated with loud sounds and extremely high ...
