From: Reduction of breakdown threshold by metal nanoparticle seeding in a DC microdischarge
Comparison between theoretical Paschen curves for ‘clean’ dry air and experimental measurements in air. (a) Comparison of Paschen curves for ‘clean’ dry air and dry air with nanoparticle seeding with error bars corresponding to one standard deviation. (b) Percent reduction in breakdown voltage from ‘clean’ dry air with aluminum and iron nanoparticle seeding with error bars corresponding to one standard deviation.
