Abstract
Physical principles and modern techniques for the formation of spontaneous vacuum ultraviolet radiation are described for three cases: the formation of line spectra of atoms, line spectra of multicharged ions and continuous spectra of excimer molecules. The parameters of the radiation sources are correlated with their applications: real and potential. The following schemes of the formation of vacuum ultraviolet radiation are described: H-type and E-type high frequencies discharges; discharge in a hollow cathode; glow, barrier, and arc discharges; high-voltage nanosecond discharge with a sharply inhomogeneous distribution of electric field strength in a gap; laser, discharge, and hybrid systems for multicharged ions formation; excitation of gas targets under conditions of gyrotron plasma heating. The review covers the state of the art over the last 20 years.
期刊介绍:
Plasma Physics Reports is a peer reviewed journal devoted to plasma physics. The journal covers the following topics: high-temperature plasma physics related to the problem of controlled nuclear fusion based on magnetic and inertial confinement; physics of cosmic plasma, including magnetosphere plasma, sun and stellar plasma, etc.; gas discharge plasma and plasma generated by laser and particle beams. The journal also publishes papers on such related topics as plasma electronics, generation of radiation in plasma, and plasma diagnostics. As well as other original communications, the journal publishes topical reviews and conference proceedings.
