'Clean-up' of Radioactive Gases used for Surface Studies

THE gradual decrease of the gas pressure in discharge tubes due to the capture of the gas on the walls and on the electrodes of the tube (electrical clean-up) has been the subject of numerous investigations (for reviews, see refs. 1 and 2). Use of radioactive gas for these studies has several advant...

Zusammenfassung:THE gradual decrease of the gas pressure in discharge tubes due to the capture of the gas on the walls and on the electrodes of the tube (electrical clean-up) has been the subject of numerous investigations (for reviews, see refs. 1 and 2). Use of radioactive gas for these studies has several advantages as shown, for example, by Harris and Hawkins 3 , who used krypton-85 in measuring gas clean-up rates in switching devices for radar duplexers.
