Abstract

The effect of such parameters of cathode materials as the heat of atom evaporation, atomic weight, work function of electrons on the structure of cathode spots of a vacuum arc, conditions of charged particle generation, and, most important, the F-emission of electrons, is considered. Determining the interrelation of cathode parameters and processes in a vacuum arc cathode spot helps develop conditions for a vacuum arc to effectively modify the surfaces of materials.
