Abstract
The breakdown voltage of a pseudospark device is measured for a wide range of gas pressure and anode–cathode gap distance. The data are analyzed by least-squares-fit methods, and the breakdown voltage is expressed by an empirical function of the gas pressure and the anode–cathode gap distance. It is found that the breakdown voltage is a function of p2d, the product of the pressure squared and anode–cathode gap distance. This is in contrast to that of a parallel-plate system that is described by Paschen’s curve, where the breakdown voltage is a function of pd.
