Abstract
The plasma glow intensity (I), the electron energy distribution function (EEDF), the electron concentration (Ne), and the average electron energy (〈u〉) were measured as functions of the discharge current and the measurement location in a hollow cathode discharge. The EEDF shape near the hollow cathode was found to depend significantly on the discharge current. It exhibited a bi-Maxwellian shape at a current of 50 mA. A local maximum in the EEDF, the position and amplitude of which changed with increasing discharge current, appeared as the current increased. These changes led to a linear increase in the average electron energy. The electron concentration increased linearly with current changes from 50 to 200 mA, after which the value of Ne ceased to depend on the discharge current in the range 200–450 mA. The glow intensities of individual He atomic lines depended linearly on the discharge current.
