A glow discharge is a plasma formed by the passage of electric current through a gas. It is often created by applying a voltage between two electrodes...

A neon lamp (also neon glow lamp) is a miniature gas-discharge lamp. The lamp typically consists of a small glass capsule that contains a mixture of neon...

self-sustaining avalanche: it decreases when the current reaches the glow discharge regime.[clarification needed] Subsequent experiments revealed that the...

Examples of electric discharge phenomena include: Brush discharge Dielectric barrier discharge Corona discharge Electric glow discharge Electric arc Electrostatic...

the electrodes supporting the arc. An arc discharge is characterized by a lower voltage than a glow discharge. An archaic term is voltaic arc, as used...

discharge look pale, milky, or reddish. Traces of mercury vapors glow bluish, obscuring the original gas color. Magnesium vapor colors the discharge green...

Glow-discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES) is a spectroscopic method for the quantitative analysis of metals and other non-metallic solids. The...

spectroscopic flames and electrothermal atomizers. Other atomizers, such as glow-discharge atomization, hydride atomization, or cold-vapor atomization, might be...

ions and electrons in a chain reaction,[citation needed] known as a glow discharge. The positive ions were attracted to the cathode and when they struck...
