Effect of electron temperature on the distribution of plasma parameters on the phase planes for thermionic diode with low temperature emitter

Abstract

Influence of temperature distribution of thermal and fast electrons on the distribution of the ion current density in the electrode gap diode has been studied. Studies on the phase planes, especially in the plane of the plasma density – ion current density have been carried out. It is shown that the generation of ions in the electrode gap is specified by the fast electron temperature.
