Abstract
The formation period time, current rise time, and photon energy of FXR discharges have been investigated at initial pressures of 5×10−6 to 1×10−2Torr. It has been found that the parameters studied are almost constant between 5×10−6 and 1×10−3Torr. The results obtained indicate that the upper limit of the interelectrode breakdown pressure is about 10−3 Torr when the initial pressure is 10−6 Torr.
