Transient emission from a ns-discharge — •Beatrix Biskup, Dirk Luggenhölscher, and Uwe Czarnetzki — Institute for Plasma and Atomic Physics, Ruhr-University, 44780 Bochum, Germany

To investigate transient continuum emission out of a ns-pulsed micro-thin cathode discharge (µTCD), a time resolved optical emission spectroscopy between 210 nm - 710 nm was applied. This µTCD was pulsed at atmospheric pressure in argon gas with a trigger voltage of 1400 V. The measured pulse lenght of the discharge had a duration of only 5 ns, with a peak current of 10 A. A continuum emission between 300 nm and 600 nm together with wide Ar II lines at the ignition point could be detected with a relatively calibrated spectrometer. The continuum is probably caused by an argon excimer (Ar2+). In addition to the temporal evolution, the plasma density and temperature were calculated from measured Stark-broadening profiles, for atomic and ionic lines (Hα, Ar I and Ar II). For atomic lines a density ∼1018 cm−3 and for ionic lines even higher densities near neutral gas density (∼1019 cm−3) were optained. The difference could be due to variing density regions in the discharge orifice which are investigated by spatially resolved measurements.
