Impact of the Samples’ Surface State on the Glow Discharge Stability in the Metals’ Treatment and Welding Processes

The low temperature plasma of glow discharge has found a widespread use as a heating source in welding and surface treatment of metals. The meticulous analysis of glow discharge’s instabilities in these processes allowed us to highlight the physicochemical characteristics of the cathode surface (the...
