Influence of ambient gases on the dc saturated breakdown field of molybdenum, tungsten, and copper during intense breakdown conditioning
A comprehensive investigation of the effect of Ar, H_{2}, air, and CO on the saturated breakdown field (E_{sat}) of molybdenum, tungsten, and copper has been performed at intensive breakdown conditioning. A significant decrease in E_{sat} is observed for molybdenum and tungsten when exposed to air....
