In multi-component vacuum arc discharge, light ions and heavy ions usually have different
spatial distributions of density and velocity. Previous research has suggested that the …

Supersonic ion jets produced in vacuum arc discharges have a wide range of applications,
where precise control of ion kinetic energy is crucial. However, a comprehensive …

The anode sheath of vacuum arc plasma plays a key role in the generation of anode
plasma, but the effects of anode evaporation on the anode sheath remains unclear. In this …

Vacuum arc discharge with metal-deuteride cathode can generate supersonic deuterium ion
jet, which finds important applications in vacuum arc ions sources. In this study, a 1D3V …

The plasma of pulsed-periodic splashes of explosive electron emission forms a vacuum arc
