Abstract

The dynamics and emission characteristics of pulsed breakdown over a ferrite surface at a current amplitude of 270 kA and current rise time of 80 ns were studied experimentally. It is shown that the characteristic transverse size of the discharge region in visible radiation is ~3 mm, while that in vacuum UV (VUV) radiation is ~200 μm. The duration of the VUV pulse with an average power of ≈0.275 GW is about 80 ns.
