Electron density and collision frequency studies using a resonant microwave cavity as a probe
Description:
Electron densities and collision frequencies were obtained on a number of gases in a dc discharge at low pressures (0.70-2mm of Hg). These measurements were performed by microwave probing of a filament of the dc discharge placed coaxially in a resonant cavity operating in a TM010 mode. the equipment and techniques for making the microwave measurements employing the resonant cavity are described.
