The electrical breakdown in vacuum
Applied Scientific Research, Section B, 1961Experiments have been performed in order to get information about the phenomena preceding the electrical breakdown in small vacuum gaps. Most experiments have been made with impulse voltages of different rise times; some complementary results obtained with alternating voltage are also presented. The effect of surface layers on the breakdown voltage and

Electrical breakdown at semiconductor grain boundaries
Physical Review B, 1986Carrier transport through electrically active grain boundaries is studied under high-electric-field conditions. Electrons trapped at the interface and screened by ionized shallow and deep bulk defects are responsible for the formation of double Schottky barriers which reduce the carrier flow by several orders of magnitude.

Electrical Breakdown in Vacuum
IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation, 1985In this paper vacuum breakdown phenomena are reviewed in two parts. The first considers the development of thought concerning electrical breakdown in vacuum with particular regard to field emission, interaction of cathode emission at the anode, and particle effects, including impurities.

Electrical breakdown by tracking
Proceedings of the IEE - Part B: Electronic and Communication Engineering, 1962When an electrically stressed insulating material is exposed to conditions which contaminate its surfaces, the tendency for the resultant transient leakage currents to form conducting tracks on insulator surfaces is of recognized importance. This form of failure is known as tracking and the processes leading to its development are very dependent on the

Digest of Literature on Dielectrics Volume 34 1970, 1970
The chapter covers fundamental ionization processes in gases, mobility measurements, breakdown in uniform and nonuniform fields, laser induced breakdown, lightning, and applications of gas breakdown and gaseous insulation. A new section has been added to cover developments in the field of high pressure gas lasers, and the bibliography has been extended

J A Rees (ed) London: Macmillan 1973 pp ix + 294 price £7.95 For one's eight pounds one does not, as might be expected, get a heavy addition to the row of numerous, excellent texts on this important field. In fact Dr Rees has merely selected a number of pieces from its literature of the last three quarters of a century, with a page or so of commentary ...

Electrical Breakdown of Liquids
1993A phenomenon generally referred to as dielectric breakdown or electrical breakdown is an increase in conduction of a material by several orders of magnitude resulting from the failure of dielectrics under electric stress. The parameter which describes the quality of material as a dielectric from the point of view of electrical breakdown is the voltage ...

Electrical Breakdown in Solids
1969Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on theory of thermal breakdown and continues with theory and experimental description of breakdown first in semiconductors and then in insulators. Thermal breakdown voltages on the application of pulses are larger than the steady state breakdown voltages.

Electrical Breakdown in Gases in Electric Fields
1990The physical phenomenon to be addressed in this chapter is the growth of ionization of a gas in an electric field and the subsequent breakdown of the insulating properties of the gas. This phenomenon forms the basis of operation for all high power gas switches (Burkes, 1978).
